I am a longtime griller/smoker myself. Your expressions after tasting the steak damn near had me headed to the grocery to grab a pack of rib eyes. Great content!

Leonardo Dicapro giving grilling tips

[@ElizabethYuen-rx9xo]

Lol

[@griffan8605]

Good video ! A tip for everyone. You can reuse the briquettes afer extinguishing them if you have enough left. Just rake them around to knock off the ash.

[@GrillinWithDad]

Yup

[@denisthek]

Thanks so much loved how well you explained, what you were doing with the the temps and to leave the lid off to get temp up for the final sear!!!

[@Dennisbackyardbbq]

I love this. Should have done this video. Great job.

[@GrillinWithDad]

You still can👍

[@danadribnenki8774]

So I bought a Weber kettle a couple years ago so I could use the pizza accessories with it. I light a bed of charcoal for the outside edges and then use whatever firewood I have that won’t over smoke the pizza. I use fairly green cottonwood that we have an abundance here, and it gives the pizza a very mild Smokey flavor. Don’t use too green or you get too much smoke. Just not too dry or it’s got too much smoke as well! Blessings everyone .

[@PigzHeadNz]

Very helpful.👍 Thank you. 👋

[@GrillinWithDad]

Awesome! Glad it was helpful.

[@Meister1551]

I've used all kinds of grills and I still go back to my Weber Kettle. I just smoked some Beef Jerky this morning on it and it turned out fantastic.

[@GrillinWithDad]

nothing like some homemade jerky!🍻

[@ralphvalkenhoff2887]

how did you make it?

[@stevekalil7988]

Great video, you have a beautiful set up and yard Sir!! 🔥

[@GrillinWithDad]

Thank you

[@gordonhopkins7519]

Great intro to charcoal grilling! I use mine more than any other grill or smoker. So versatile! Always go with the kingsford.

[@GrillinWithDad]

You got that right!

[@arinaruchkina2761]

Спасибо за информативное видео!

[@QuintonjChambers]

I love the oil on paper towel method for lighting my coals. I'm always paranoid that they wont actually light though so i usually drop one inside the chimney too before I put the coals in just to make extra doubly sure it lights really well

[@juliamorrison798]

That was a great video! I love cooking on a Weber kettle! Please do chicken kabobs on the kettle sometime!

[@GrillinWithDad]

Great idea!

[@bks7842]

Kingsford is THE smokiest during light up.

[@user-lw1fk4ts2p]

Thank you for this information , want to take my girl out and grill for her but I never done it this helps a lot

[@GrillinWithDad]

Awesome glad I could help.

[@terryfeagins2053]

Soooo ,ive always loved the taste of burgers ,steaks , anytning for that matter from a charcoal grill.... i have propane, and a smoker, and have nmbeen looking ,and studying charcoal grills for almist a year now....pk is soo expensive, soo its either this webber kettle , or a alpha-Joy 34 in grill walmart has.....getting ready to pull the trigger.....still ,not sure which one....

[@jeffreyjhouser]

Super video, great instructions! So, when'😊s dinner again?

[@GrillinWithDad]

👍🍻

[@Kenword69420]

Bro is a Sigma for telling me this 🙏

[@nielminor7529]

I'm not a pro, but i have 8 grills in the background? 🤔 Huh?

[@nielminor7529]

I like the tips though!

[@garytaylor9474]

Are those bricks pre coated in some sort of flammable liquid.. Can't believe a small little bit of tissue can heat up the coals.. I tried with the bricks and little fire lighters placed in between.. But as soon as the lighters burned away the coals just went cold

[@GrillinWithDad]

The charcoal I use does not have any flammable liquid added. Not a fan at all of the liquid ones. The little starter cubes are all that’s needed.

[@genacidex1598]

Need to preheat your grill grate then add protein

[@user-fk2kl6vh3u]

heeey its Leo DiCaprio!!

[@hankjonkman1893]

I love your pergola. Where is it from?

[@GrillinWithDad]

Thanks, Costco

[@silveraje]

did everything you said. Been trying umteen different ways nothing works. Why? FYI other people have tried it on my grill and it went out after 40 minutes. What am i doing wrong?

[@GrillinWithDad]

Check the vents. Make sure nothing is clogged up and vents are clear. Also check your charcoal. Is it fresh or have you had the bag for a while now

[@jwp5683]

Hey Dad, Love the videos.I don't mean to be rude. I notice your accent. I'm curious what region you're in?

[@GrillinWithDad]

All good. I live in the Chicago suburbs but originally from Poland.

[@ImRmed2]

@@GrillinWithDadHey neighbor. I’m not in the burbs, just a little further west. But for that reason, I’ll hit the subscribe button. Look forward to. Watching your videos. 🤘 🇺🇸😎🇺🇸

[@GrillinWithDad]

[@davidoickle1778]

[@mwilson7097]

State of New York don't believe in Memorial Day weekend. I think they ban charcoal and gas grills!

[@GrillinWithDad]

Sweet lady propane

[@TalentedLMT]

This is a nightmare for someone who sells propane and propane accessories😳😂

[@GrillinWithDad]

🤣

[@nobodylikesme7464]

Charcoal is a lost art now you got whimpy shit like ninja woodfire grill

[@GrillinWithDad]

🤣

[@Fireal4632]

1 Steak is easy. Doing 4 Big steaks on a weber sucks!

[@GrillinWithDad]

I've done it before and it's a matter of managing each steak. Flip them one by one and follow the same process

[@beka4780]

You told us that the vent of the bottom is half way open! That is not correct! In this Position they are completely open! Greetings Bernd

[@robakers5292]

Hey just wondering buddy if you ever did a cold smoke on your Weber grill that's where you take the little tube light it up doesn't put out a lot of heat but the smoke does the work for you just wondering

[@GrillinWithDad]

I have not, but should definitely give it a try.
