Love this idea of taking questions and sitting and answering all of them no matter what they ask.

[delizioso]

Thank you Troy, I appreciate you answering all the questions 😊 I really loved the fact that you started all this thinking about your son and making sure he's proper fed and continued to eat some real food 😊 Awesome job 👍👏

[SmokyRibsBBQ]

Great Q & A session Troy, I really enjoyed it, and thanks for the plug brother, I appreciate it! I have a question for you. What TV chef over the years has been your greatest inspiration, and the one you learned the most from? For me it would have to be Emeril Lagasse.

[RivetGardener]

Troy, loved this video and personal information you shared. I feel honored that you take the time to watch and comment on all my videos. I know how busy you are. Much appreciated! Thanks brother!

[flans]

Part of my Thursday routine is watching these vids....Cheers Troy!!!

[BigMeatSunday]

i havent had a lot of time to watch all of these brother but I do like listening to you chat man, reminds me of our chats... you are good people brother, thanks for the mention, you are a brother and a compadre !

[Boogerus]

I just love you doing this Troy, they really see what we have known since day one....Troy is one of a kind! Keep being you mon ami *mouah*

[davewassef]

Thanks for taking the time to make these videos T-Roy! Good quality production, good content. It really is awesome to see how far your videos have come the last couple years. Keep killing it!

[Amylynnskitchen]

Awesome video Troy! Love the Q&A.... great information, tips and ideas! Keep up the wonderful work my dear friend... have an awesome weekend!!!

[HeavyMetalBarBQue]

Hey Troy! Really enjoying the chat Vids! A lot of great questions from those who follow Your channel, … and of coarse,
great answers from You. Wow!… You used my question…. Thanks for the mention of my small channel. \m/
And thanks for the mention of a lot of the other small BBQ channels that are making some great Que!
Baby Back Maniac, Aim 'em and Claim 'em, and Catch 'em Smoke 'em are the ones to keep an eye on…..IMO! Rock On!!!

[BabyBackManiac]

I think you are right, brother. I know you are talking to a camera but it does feel more personal.

Thanks for answering my question. I am using a laptop and I haven't quite figured out how to archive everything. Right now I've got a big raid hard drive but I'm filling it up quickly. Wish I could swap out drives like you do but you know Apple can be with stuff like that. lol.

Love the idea of doing a collab. My wife's family is in Temple so we got down there every now and then. Hopefully we can swing something at some point. Even if we don't end up doing collaboration, I'd love to just meet you guys at some point.

I really like this format. It was a good idea. Take it easy, brother.

[jonathanhavens]

hey Troy! thanks for answering my question on here! My wife laughed and said "that just made your night didn't it." lol, I said it sure did!

[biggbellylove]

T-ROY, I love you brother....great job on q and feels great hearing you give me shout out..I feel honored...I to prefer chili, just made huge batch last week WITH BEANS as well.lol...god bless you brother. thanks your good ol Arkansas friend Bigg Kris.

[lumpyq]

Beans in Chili up here in New England for sure. Clam Chowder is a staple here too.You mentioned that when you use Lump in your Big Joe when trying to cook at low temps it tends to smolder. I had the same problem but I found if I brought the heat way up and let it burn for a while then bring it down slow before I put meat on it works out well. I think the problem is the Lump isn't completely lit before I started Smoking. I don't know how you are doing it but I feel this helped me. You Tube is wonderful Community, I met some great people, you included.Great series Troy, I like it.

[Rick]

Hi T-Roy! Thanks for the answer. Another great video, thanks.

[burtpop]

another good one T-Roy. long or short i still watch and enjoy.

[davetianen]

Hey Troy thanks for the reply on your Thursday. Yep you got the name right.
So far as a beginner I've done the chicken, pheasant breasts, salmon and just did your fast and hot butt roast. Pleased with the results of all.
Here in Wisconsin the weather temps are on the way down. Any advice or tips for cold weather smoking or just pack it up for spring. Love your channel. Learning a lot about how to use my WSM

[tangojoe]

Good to see all is well down your way Troy.
Thanks for the answer on the shooting in 60fps. I may have to give that a try if I get back to making videos.
Have a great weekend!

[boss]

Love these videos Troy. dont make us wait too long for that chowder!!

[charlesmosley]

I like mixing my woods also. I really like the apple and maple wood combo. Very unique taste...not overpowering and if I desire more smoke I can give the meat more without it getting bitter. If you havent tried apple wood on spares or babybacks....you are in for a treat. If you ever get some maple...try mixing that. You wont be disappointed. Im grateful for your channel. I learned a few things from you and I really appreciate it brother.
