In this video I teach the fundamentals of utilizing a charcoal grill. I'm using a basic Weber 22 inch kettle grill, which in my viewpoint sets the standard for all other kettle grills. I cover whatever from setting the grill up, to picking your charcoal, to which devices and utensils you will require. I will link to the grill and devices below.

Immediately after hearing his accent I knew for sure he was a BBQ expert!!!!
@Austin as a person with a similar accent I can tell you he’s probably entertained by it just as much as you are 😂
😂😂😂🤣🤣
I thought the same!
Riiiight?!?!? I paused almost immediately after hearing that voice, like this is a man I can trust! Haha this is a man that knows his BBQ!
Thanks Hank hill
This guy is the Morgan Freeman of charcoal grill narration
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Forest bump of charcoal grills
He sounds a bit like Forest Gump of BBQ’s to me.
LMFAO 😂
Yes
Glad you pointed out the difference between lump and briquettes. I use lump when I cook steak or chicken breasts but the briquettes I use for when longer cooks in excess of 30 minutes.
I love to use lump charcoal when I have the chance.
I never knew there was a difference!
As a northerner, I found your accent added instant credibility to the subject.
Thank you for watching!
@Kitchen Alpha YOU ARETHE BEST NARRATOR
I watched this first last Monday and it helped a lot! Last week i was using a weber mini kettle that id gotten from work. This week I received a full size kettle and it really brings back memories. This is how my dad used to grill and.. god rest his soul. Food for the soul!! Thank you for this video, sir!
Hey your very welcome! I love hearing things like this. I’m glad I was able to help you!
Great video! I always wondered what the purpose of the vents were, pretty obvious once you explained. I will be using this video as my guide when I get my bbq next week. Subscribed and Liked.
This is the gold standard for how-to videos on YouTube. Clearly-framed, perfect narration, and none of the nonsense filler. Perfect.
And accent.
Kitchen Alpha thanks for the vid man! My buddy and I are goin camping soon so this helped a lot.
You forgot the polished accent!
Yes none of the 10 minute long introduction to subscribe and enter for a chance to win some grill items from walmart instead of target 🤣 good video

Best, straightforward charcoal BBQ guide on YouTube. Great stuff!
I loooooove to cook but admittedly am still a total newbie in learning…. This video was so clear, concise, and easy to follow and didn’t make me feel dumb for not knowing how to use a charcoal grill! Thank you for this!!
Thank you sir! Great to follow and explain why you do each step for a grill newbie like me. You have a knack for concise and informative instruction 🙂
Just wanted to say that I’m really grateful for your videos. I’ve just bought my first grill – a Weber – and I’m gearing up to my first barbecue (meaning I’m the one grilling and not just sitting down and eating). This is a first class tutorial and I can’t wait to binge watch the others. I’m in Portugal by the way and I know I’m learning from from the best! So big thanks from the other side of the ocean!
This was so helpful!! Thanks so much for making such a clear and easy video to follow, very excited to grill now!
Getting ready to transition back to charcoal after more years than I care to admit on gas. Just need to finish my current tank of propane then I’m getting a Weber kettle.
I’ve watched so many different videos and am continuing to watch many more. This particular video is the best, most succinct starter video for novices that I’ve seen. I love that you have a basic setup without all the fancy accessories. That is exactly what I’m going for!
Thank you for taking the time to put this together. Subscribed.
Thx so much. I joined the military and they’ve got me in a training command where they give us rooms that are like dorms. We don’t have an oven so if you wanna cook your own food there’s a microwave or you can use the grills provided outside. About two months in, I was really regretting not paying attention to my parents when they grilled 😂😂. Thx, the video helped a lot. Great accent too. I hear a lot of that in Louisiana.
Thank you for service! May God bless you!
O my goodness!! Thank you for being so thorough but keeping it simple!! This is an EXCELLENT how-to video!!! No longer intimidated by the charcoal grill.
Thank you! I got myself a little charcoal bbq to take out to the park. As a single mom, I have to figure out things as I go! This video, simple as it may seem, is SO incredibly helpful for me! I’ll be using this new knowledge to feed my kids (and many friends) this summer and for years to come! Thanks again!
Glad to help! It’s actually really simple once you get the hang of it!
Thanks so much for this video. I’ve been cooking for many years, but always avoided the outside grill because nothing ever turned out right. Your instructional videos are just what I needed. Can’t wait to get a grill now! ( Also appreciate that your videos are clean, and to the point!)
i’m so used to my stepdad’s amazing grilling skills, so i want to be able to do it on my own too! this video is super helpful thank you
About to move into my first home 🏠 and I’m a rookie at grilling so this vid helped me out a lot! 2 of my older brothers have this same grill and they make grilling look so easy!
Thank you my friend for all of this. I never used a charcoal grill and used your channel’s content to help me go from charcoal newbie to being confident enough to make an amazing turkey breast on Thanksgiving for my family. Keep the great content up!!!
