Pulled Pork on a Weber Kettle for Beginners

[@afw249]

Glad to see you back

[@KitchenAlpha]

Thank you!

[@wtractor024]

love your cooks. I like that they are real simple to do and turn out great!

[@pandamartinez5808]

Love it short & to the point!

I prefer the snake method. With 5 layers of charcoal and a stick in the center, I can get about 6 hours of a very solid 300F. My wife does not like pulled pork, but I did a beef pot roast. Using this method, it came out like a brisket. 5 1/2 hours. I have been meaning to do pork, but I have to plan out all the meat before starting.

I'm new to coal cooking and have a question please? Why do I have to have th bottom vent open?

[@BrandonCarder]

Great to see another cooking video from ya!

[@sandorkoppanyi9618]

I found your video to be very helpful! When do you know if it’s a good time to wrap the pork? How much longer should it stay on the grill?

[@BbqspitrotisseriesAu]

Hi, looks pretty tasty and a very good tips. Also, good choice of charcoal! Looking forward to see more videos like this from you.

[@plasticbadger1663]

Love the channel and thanks for the rub recipe. Any reason you didn’t use the chimney to light the charcoal? Will be giving this a try this weekend over here In the uk! 🇬🇧 👍🏼

[@KitchenAlpha]

Sometimes when I’m doing low and slow, I put a tumbleweed or wax cube directly into the charcoal and it lights a small area. I then close down my vents and it seems to do well that way too!

[@smalljaws8137]

Do you ever spritz pork shoulder while smoking

[@KitchenAlpha]

I do sometimes. I don’t think it makes a huge difference in the end but still worth doing if you have time. Especially on longer cooks!

[@mikedelaney366]

Confused and smoking tomorrow. 6 years ago your How To Set Up A Charcoal Grill For Smoking video talked about using briquettes but you used lump charcoal, and the older video said 225-250 and you shot for closer to 300. You also just piled some lump charcoal in the grill instead of using a chimney. I've got lump and Kingsford but I'm a total noob at my grill, which way should I go?

[@KitchenAlpha]

I mostly use lump charcoal but briquettes are easier to control temp with especially for folks new to charcoal. Your best outcome will be when you use lower temps around 225-250. You can cook higher as I did in this video but I was shooting for a shorter cook time that day. Though you’ll come out with a better finished product when you take your time! Hope this helps!

The leaner the longer it takes

[@KitchenAlpha]

Yes! Was hoping I’d get away with less time but worth it in the end!

[@curtishinkle7885]

Miss your vids😢 bb looked great keep the vids coming. Merch open?

[@mg8718]

5 hours cooking sounds about right. I also like the lump charcoal and hickory wood. I use alot of it to tell you the truth.

[@KitchenAlpha]

I use a lot of lump, too!

[@pjb2403]

That boy love BBQ, my brother

[@Caleb-et7js]

Nice hat ! I learned to drive on a ih 666 later I graduated to a 1466.

[@KitchenAlpha]

Thanks! I’ve got an old 504 I’m fixing up. My dad used old international loadstar trucks for his small logging company when I was growing up. He loved them because they were simple to work on and there used to be plenty of them around. May pick one up someday!

[@JRocc84]

And here I thought Hank Hill only used propane…

[@KitchenAlpha]

Secretly loves charcoal! 😝
