I had the pleasure of eating at Tony's house last night. Listen to this man he knows what he is doing, AWESOME! Wife bakes a killer chocolate cake. My only complaint is I had to bring my own alcohol.

[@TonyToneBBQ]

But you brought such good stuff! Thanks Jack! There's nothing better than sharing good food and good drink with family and good friends.

Watched for 2 hours now and learning

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you find my videos educational!

[@damien9761]

Well I can say from being in the south, if we are BBQ then it’s beer, if we are sipping on whiskey then no BBQ because that’s a sitting drink not an up and down to the grille! But then again it’s a preference to the person at the end of course! Bud I got say, you have an amazing setup and a beautiful spacious yard. You got a great persona vibration about you bud so you got my subscribe, well done my friend on the hot and fast meal.

[@TonyToneBBQ]

I like your style my friend! Thanks for watching and thank you for your kind words!

[@berniestewart1738]

The char grilled chimney starter is awesome. I have 3 of the ones in your video. The bottom release of the coals is awesome, especially for loading up the smoker box.

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Yes, very handy tool. Thanks!

[@markfowkes4198]

Really enjoying your videos! I got the latest version of your smoker for Christmas this year. I used this method to cook some Hawaiian BBQ chicken yesterday. Turned out way better than the propane grill! I really appreciate your style helping us new comers to smoking. I am excited to use what I've learned from your videos for my first smoke on this grill.

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Hey Mark! Congratulations on your new Offset! I'm sure smoking, barbequing and grilling off all types will become your new obsession. There's just so much you can do and there's nothing like cooking with real fire. Thanks for your comment and have a Happy New Year!

[@fracman55]

My favorite sweet baby rays ,delicous sir ,old school bbq.the best with a cold one ,i got a Oklahoma joe ,i cook my meat just like yours . Fast and quick

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Freedom!!! One of my favorite things is lighting the fire and cracking open a cold one at the end of a good day of work. So satisfying. Thanks for watching my friend and I appreciate your comment!

[@TheDrunkenBBQ]

Sometimes i like hot and fast, just get that food made. Great video, thanks for sharing.

[@TonyToneBBQ]

I'm glad you enjoyed and thanks for watching!

[@Nothingatall794]

Thanks Tony I’ve got that same grill and because of your video I am ready to grill some meat for less than 2 hours cooking time 😊.

[@TonyToneBBQ]

My pleasure Vance! Grilling is one of my favorite things to do after a long day at work. Nothing like creating a fire and grilling up some good grab while throwing down some cold beers after a hard day. Have fun thanks for watching!

[@loveskynyrdnation]

Love how cool you are and I've actually learned definitely put me in a good mood ☺️

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Lol! Thanks a bunch! Have fun my friend!

[@familymanof6169]

The best ribs that I ever cooked were done in 30 minutes. The coals was smoking hot. Everybody complimented me on them. I did like you. Turn them about every minute. They were amazing. Just too much work and HEAT!!! Put on my welding gloves. Lol. Great video.

[@TonyToneBBQ]

On hot days it's tough to deal with the high heat, but worth it! Hot and fast can be a lot of fun. I appreciate your comment thanks for watching!

[@outlaw5065]

I am trying this method with the chicken drum sticks today, done the beef and pork ribs low n slow, but the chicken is getting done this way this afternoon, char griller smoking champ is getting a work out today ❤

[@stevenuanew1352]

Great job !! Enjoy your videos when I’m bbqing

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Awesome! Thank you Steve! Thanks for watching and I appreciate your comment.

I found a local guy that sells pecan splits and chunks...man I was excited. Apparently here in NC we have all kinds of woods.

[@TonyToneBBQ]

You're lucky! I have trouble finding pecan in my area. It's great to have such good resources. Thanks for watching and I appreciate your comment!

[@outlaw5065]

Top video mate food looks absolutely amazing. To the first question my answer is both beverages, whiskey to start with, fat cigar in hand then beer got have the best of both worlds🍻

Awesome JT! Congrats on that new Gravity Fed! OKJ makes some good stuff. Keep me posted on how it works for you. Thanks for the Sub!

That sounds like a nice healthy combination. Very nice! Thanks you!

[@tbullock79]

36:22. That moment you realize how good your food looks and you're about to eat it 🤤.

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Hahaha! Yes! The hardest part of making these videos is at the end when all I want to do is eat what I cooked. I had to go back and watch the end of that video and now I'm starving, but it's only 9:00 a.m. and I'm at the beginning of my work day. Darn! Thanks for making me hungry! Lol! Seriously though, thanks for your comments and I appreciate you watching!

[@tbullock79]

@@TonyToneBBQ no prob buddy. Keep up the good work. And thanks for showing people you can make ribs hot and fast when you need to and they will still be great.

[@TonyToneBBQ]

@@tbullock79 will do and my pleasure!

[@brandonjones3680]

Do the ribs come out roughly or still have that beautiful bend?

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Hey Brandon! Thanks for the question! Yeah, this process doesn't yield the same super tender ribs that a slow and low cook would render, but they sure turn out super delicious. Check out the new video I did on grilling ribs if you get a chance. Even though they're not as tender, they're so freaking good. Thanks for watching!

[@michaelh1621]

Very entertaining

Thanks Michael!

I could smell them cooking up here in New England

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Love it! Thank you!

Well Done!

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Thanks Adrian!

[@ratattack1571]

I have a chargriller with no offset . Could you show how to do a slow and low for smoking

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Thanks for watching and thanks for that request! Yeah, keep an eye on my channel. You might check out some of my other videos that might apply. It is possible to do slow and low without a firebox. Really, the easiest way would be to just build a pile of charcoal or lump cool far to one side and keep your meat far to the other side. It's a little more tricky when using wood though because the only way to add wood is to open the lid. Charcoal on the other hand can burn for two or three hours or more before you need to add. But yeah, I'll see what I can come up with. Thanks again and smoke on!

[@ratattack1571]

@@TonyToneBBQ cool thanks. I've tried the minion method. But seems to run a little to high

[@TonyToneBBQ]

@@ratattack1571 yeah, the key to the minion method is airflow control. You really need to be able to choke off the air or the charcoal will light up and burn faster than you want it to. Personally, I'm not a fan of allowing large amounts of cold charcoal to light up during the cook. Charcoal gives off an unpleasant odor when starting, which transfers to the food, and you can't avoid this with the minion. Also, wood chucks on top tend to ignite right away and you will get temp spikes.

[@Just.Dre88]

Great job. I prefer Voodoo and Hazy Hero IPA

[@TonyToneBBQ]

I gotta try that Hazy Hero! Thanks for the tip!

[@MrGoose139]

Both

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Yes! Lol! Thanks for watching!

[@smokestarr85]

I got them same big tongs & use em the same way. Great minds think alike……🧐

[@TonyToneBBQ]

That's right my friend!

[@bigvisk1125]

Beer if you're cooking low and slow, bourbon if hot and fast :)

[@TonyToneBBQ]

I like your style 😎👍

[@thelogic5770]

My fire never stays like yours, not sure what im doing wrong. My coals are hot and my vents are open?

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Hi! Thanks for your comment! How long are your coals staying hot? I find that a chimney full will stay hot for about 1 hour, but it depends on airflow and quality of the product. Have you tried a different brand?

[@thelogic5770]

​@@TonyToneBBQwhat brand of charcoal do you use?

[@TonyToneBBQ]

@@thelogic5770 I usually burn Kingsford charcoal, my preference is Kingsford Professional. I also use Jealous Devil Lump Coal very often.

[@charlie.walker5982]

Bourbeer can't go wrong

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Lol! I agree. Thanks!

[@smokestarr85]

I told the bar keep 1 bourbon, 1 scotch and 1 beer 😊😊😊

[@donlacourse8112]

Please don't take the Lords name in vein and such a bounty of food, you should thank the Lord for providing it for you. Just saying, love the video, and learned a lot, good stuff, keep it up . Just thanking the Lord means a lot to many. Thank you once again.

[@TonyToneBBQ]

Thank you Don! I appreciate the advice and I agree with you. God bless you and thank you for the reminder.

[@tiffanywatson2816]

I can tell by the sound of the rib meat being ripped from your bite (38:43) that it was not all that tender. how can u even compare this to actual smoked food? Chicken looked good though

[@TonyToneBBQ]

You're totally right! Definately not as tender as 6-hour cook but tender enough to be SUPER enjoyable at the end of a long day of work in just one hour of cooking, which was the point of this video. If you don't have time to smoke a rack for hours and you're in the mood for some delicious BBQ, this'll do. LOL! But yeah, you're right... no comparison to a long cook. I could have been a bit more clear on making the point. See what happens when you start a video by downing a whole IPA and a double shot of Burbon! LOL!!! Thanks for watching and I appreciate your comment!

Interesting, Jack. What would you have done differently?

[@SliceydiceyCookingNicey]

you lost me at well done pork. The FDA has even rolled back the food safe temp for pork to 145 minimum temp. Pull at 135 , let it rest and rise in temp and enjoy moist pork...... or enjoy your sawdust meat
