      Or just read and watch the material that’s available until YOU ACTUALLY understand it. There is no magic piece of information that’s going to take you from making bad bbq to good bbq. The only way to make good bbq is to make some bad bbq. Takes 10,000 hours to master something. If you think you’re going to watch a cpl Aaron Franklin videos a week and become a legend without any practice, you’re sadly mistaken. Get his books and GET TO SMOKIN!!!!!!

    glad to see you adding new videos. Discovered your restaurant and videos when we moved to the Austin area in 2012. Stood in line a couple of times and then learned to order ahead for birthdays etc. Moved away in 2021 but kept my love for Texas BBQ, please keep the videos coming. Not as young as I used to be so I wimped out and have gone the pellet smoker route. I like my sleep too much.

  • @listening4hisvoice

    I'm one year in with my Franklin Smoker and have come to realize, and your video confirmed it, that the wood I was using is too large. No wonder my temps were all over the place. I've gotten smaller size pieces and will be doing my first cook with them and am sure I'll have some better success with fire management. Thanks for this video!

  • @raymondhusser2915

Great content for those of us that have tried (and failed) using fireplace size wood for a small offset smoker! Most videos talk about air movement and clean smoke but I've not seen anyone mention using smaller wood and building a smaller fire. Thanks keemosabe!

    One tip I have is to use the wind to your advantage. Aim the firebox into the wind and this helps with a cleaner fire. More oxygen equals more fire! Great to see you putting out videos again Aaron!

  • @OltonHall

    I fired up my smoker for the first time this year and used the smaller pieces of wood that Aaron talks about. What a difference. Keeping a constant temperature was so easy and the worry about heat spikes was gone.

    Love the video, doing this now. Burning local coastal live oak from the North side of Sulphur Mountain, near Ojai, CA. 20" Horizon Smoker from Bass Pro. Wood seems to be more dense than Austin's Post Oak. Trying to do 8 hours around 225. Using all the methods in this video and it's working great so far. I also took out the coal grate and placing the wood / coals on the floor of the fire pit.

    Great video, and very helpful. I cheat. I use some hardwood charcoal and hardwood lump charcoal to create my coal bed. I also have a wire mesh fire basket in my fire box to keep the fire from direct contact with my firebox. It also allows the air to flow around, under, and through the fire. I've gotten my fire easy to regulate, and it burns a long time, keeping the temp easily regulated without a lot of work and attention. I'm getting a really good, wide, pink smoke ring, too. Still,I learned from the video, like I learn from everything you post. There's always something there to learn.
