Hey guys, it's Nate, A.K. the Foot Account, and welcome back to the channel. The twists and turns of Winter Wild Cards just continue because we've actually got cards coming into packs today as a part of a Winter Best of Re-Release, kind of like Black Friday where the promo starts the day before the real promo begins. That's what is happening today, and we have to talk a lot about the market today, guys, especially updating you on the crashing prices that are still falling in this game, but what is gonna happen today with it being such a big day, and, of course, tomorrow with the start of Winter Wild Cards, will there be some prices that get too low that we can buy up? We'll talk about that in today's video, and will we finally see play of the month of Bape today, and what else we see today? On probably a busy Thursday, including a new season in FC24, there is so much to go over, so let's get into it. If you're excited for it, drop a thumbs up, subscribe if you're new. Let's go over yesterday's SPC content really quickly. There's not a lot to cover in SPC, specifically, we did have a player SPC. It was Zubaldia, a very cheap card. I mean, guys, to be honest, this SPC is 15, 16,000 coins, and it's a card that a lot of people are probably just getting done with some extra, I guess, 285s, and then the rest of the squad being 81s and 82s to get it completed. It's, like, cheaper than an 88-rated fodder, and it does have jockey playstyle plus, so maybe try a game with number two, but very cheap SPC, just nice to do because it is cheap fodder, to be honest. We also had the Wesley Snyder Hero Challenge, which was the final SPC challenge as a part of that completionist objective, so GGs, if you got that done and got all those completed because I sure didn't do any of those SPCs. I didn't put any of my fodder under that. It was all going into player picks. Yesterday's content really took off, though, with evolutions. We've had so many evolutions, guys, this week. It's actually crazy, but I think it's EA preparing for the holiday period, and they prepared decently well, I think, because this evolution, yes, they kind of fixed the problem that we talked about a couple of days ago. They didn't really fix it that great, but it does finally give us an upgrade for those cards that we were saying we couldn't upgrade before. Remember when the FC Founders II evolution dropped, and we were like, we can't upgrade Darwin. We can't upgrade Werner, Alvarez, all those different cards? Well, this kind of fixes that, but it also can build upon maybe who you did in the FC Founders II. This Kolo Mani is extinct on the market right now, because this is the Evo that almost everybody is doing from scratch, as you can take a gold Kolo Mani and put him all the way up to an 86 with the FC Founders II that was just dropped, and give him five star skills, and then give him another plus two overall boost, giving him the 90 dribbling and 94 pace on his card. That is why his gold card right now on this game is extinct and not on the market. So really the question is, was this FC Founders II like supposed to be a totally different Evo, and the FC Founders upgrade was planned all along to be how we were upgrading our initial FC Founders cards? I'm not entirely sure. We're probably never gonna know the answer, but it's nice that we have two Evos, and honestly, I think I'm gonna use this FC Founders upgrade, probably on whoever I put in the FC Founder II, unless I'm gonna do somebody as part of a chain with multiple evolutions, like the Ragoni card that I'm kind of interested in for this, but yeah, this is a straight up W. I mean, it's really easy to get done. It's honestly best used, as you can see over here on footbin, or on foot.gg, it is best used in correlation with the FC Founders II evolution or your original Founders Evo. But specifically the Founders II, I think that some of these cards that are in here, like the Rafa that they show, this card looks sick, 96 pace, five star skills, and 90 dribbling, like the five star skills getting added to, or the plus one skill moves getting added, it's crazy. This brand new card from Team of the Week, Sabi, is able to be Evoed as well. He goes five star, four star. He's in the league one, 96 pace, and 90 dribbling. That's a very, very popular Evo right now too. Now speaking of evolutions, we had a Team of the Week yesterday that included a brand new center back that you can actually Evo inside of the Team of the Week Evo that was dropped just a couple days ago as well, and that is Rafael Veran. Now I'll show you the evolution. Guys, I actually don't think that Veran is worth doing inside of this Evo. It does give his card a plus two boost, and it's obviously an Evoed Veran, so it's pretty sick. It's like another inform upgrade, or another double inform upgrade on top of this Veran, but unless you pack the Veran inform like untradable, what I would tell you to do is just buy the Thunderstruck, because the Thunderstruck has better or almost equivalent stats to the Evoed Veran card, and it has better play styles, and honestly, it's about the same price. The inform is 423,000 coins right now, which then to do the Team of the Week upgrade, you'd have to pay 50K on top of that, so you're paying around 475,000 coins, which is 25K less than this card on the market. This card's got a better card design in my opinion, so if you're thinking about if you're gonna Evo Veran, I would only do that if you can pack him, but it is pretty crazy that he was in Team of the Week yesterday with the boost. Kim Min Jae, insane card, great to trade with as well. He's gonna drop off a good amount, but Bruiser Plus placed off for him is great, and then Allen St. Maxim and Team of the Week, five star skills, five star weak foot. This card is going to have hype because this 86 Flashback St. Max, a lot of people maybe don't even have still, because it was a Flash SBC during Black Friday, but this is a really, really nice Team of the Week for him as well, so kind of a decent Team of the Week, not that insane, but at least decent for the Veran, the Kim Min Jae, the St. Max, the Osamun, the Sabi card, I would say is pretty sick in there as well, so that was yesterday's content for the most part of new stuff that dropped. Now, one of the things that did drop yesterday, and I'm gonna see if I can show it on the loading screen here, and this is where we get into the conversation about today, is a loading screen that EA dropped it. I mean, we were kind of talking about this, guys, when they released the road to the knockout cards that are impacts right now, like Usman, Dembele, like Osamun, we were expecting more mini releases as the loading screens never just show for us now anymore, it's crazy. We were expecting some mini releases or some best of releases, right? During the holiday period, that is confirmed. This is one of the loading screens that is up right now, I couldn't show you it because it went away so fast, but it's triple threat, thunderstruck, and a radioactive cards, and check the timer. Guys, these cards, winter best of starts today. These cards are coming back into packs today on Thursday at the content drop time. Remember how many cards we had released in packs during Black Friday, right? We had some trailblazers, some road to the knockouts, some other random promo cards. It was a set of maybe like 15 to 20 cards. I would expect it to be around the same for this winter best of today. Maybe it's 30 cards, I don't know what EA have in mind. It's only three different previous promos. So obviously, you can't expect every single one of these promo cards from triple threat, from radioactive or from thunderstruck to be in, especially with thunderstruck being such a massive promo side. But of course, this has created a lot of panic on these cards on the market, because people are like, oh my goodness, these cards might be in packs. I need to sell and get prepared because if they are, and as always, we know this, right? Anytime cards get re-released back into packs in a best of sort of scenario, they drop in price. Kvica is down 100,000 coins. He was 550, now he's 440K. Oshawala is down a lot. Taliska's down like 20,000 coins. Sobel Sly, Parasich, I'm assuming there's gonna be some low rated ones and some higher rated ones inside of this re-release. We just don't know who is in it yet, but those prices are gonna crash on whoever is put back into packs. Now one thing I will say is, since EA is putting these cards in packs today, I would 100% expect them to be running lightning rounds. They ran lightning rounds yesterday as expected on a Wednesday. They almost always do. There was actually a good amount of lightning rounds. They dropped a hero pack in this store as well, Dynamic Duo Heroes pack. But like all these packs that are here with the lightning rounds probably dropping again today with these new cards being added to packs, you still have the Road to the Knockouts, you still have the Team of the Group Stage team that is in packs right now. EA's gonna try to sell some packs today and it actually is probably not gonna be that bad of a day to open some packs. If you're trying to pack a Team of the Group Stage player, if you value this over maybe what's upcoming for Winter Wild Cards, you're adding those best of cards in packs today for specifically like rivals rewards. I'm gonna save my rivals rewards for content today. Might as well, right? Because there's gonna be more cards in packs. So that's really gonna hurt whatever is in packs. Now of course, if like, let's say this Sam Kerr. Sam Kerr is a rare card that has dropped off a ton in value in the past couple of days. Like yesterday alone, she went from 360K. After that load in the screen came out, she's now 300,000 coins. If she is not re-released in packs today, her card price is gonna go up. Same thing for Masrawi Kavicha. Whatever is not re-released in packs, especially if it's a rare card and it's down a lot, or it's a pretty popular card. Like this Teliska has been going up in price a little bit recently. He was 140,000 coins. Like a card like this, if it's not re-released, will probably have a little bit of a bounce back up in price, but I'm not investing a whole lot just yet because I feel like prices could tumble in some areas again today. It's just gonna depend who ends up getting released in packs. So be very careful with that, but I wanted to spend some time talking about this because these are gonna be cards that get re-released. They're gonna put some top tier ones in. They're gonna put some lower tier ones in. I'm so curious to see how many they drop today in this game as well. And let's talk about more leaks for Winter Wild cards specifically. These are the first leaks, besides the SBCs that EA posted about. These are Winter Wild card icons, guys. And we have a few of them that are leaked right now, but really our question is arising around are these going to be in packs or are they going to be SBCs? Are they going to be maybe even in the season progress rewards? Hugo Sanchez, Yashin, we've got Raul, we've got Closa and we've got Bird Camp. So those are the only icons that are leaked right now. I have to imagine, guys, that these would be in packs. Now, the only reason why I mentioned some of those other areas, as you take a look at some of these icons, like Raul, that could be a pretty good card with the right boost. Yashin is gonna be hyped. Hugo Sanchez, with some pace, kind of reminds me of like the team of the year icon, Hugo Sanchez, that we had last year as an SBC, that a lot of people did. I remember doing that SBC. The reason why I mentioned season progress, though, guys, is these card designs are actually, yeah, they're on the game. Winter Wild cards icon and Winter Wild cards, they are already here. And since they're released so early and since the new season starts today on Thursday, there's actually a decent shot that we could see Winter Wild card items inside of, since we haven't had players inside of our season rewards, actually, for at least the last two seasons, I think that might be coming back, potentially, right? So watch out for that today. That's a part of the season rewards that I'm most curious in. But those are the icons that we have leaked right now. And I would have to imagine that we would be having some more leaks in regarding to icons for Winter Wild cards that are coming here pretty soon as well. So watch out for more of those leaks today because there could be some more news. And now let's talk about the market. Yesterday, we knew prices were dropping. We talked about prices dropping even further on Wednesday and well, they did. I mean, if we're taking a look at some prices right now, cards like Vinny Jr., 389,000 coins, this is like basically the lowest it has been. Yesterday, you went from 416 down to 380. He's been bouncing around right around just the under 400,000 coin range. But other cards really took a hit yesterday, including Patrick Guiharo. And I think it was the lightning rounds. I think it was the loading screen and just the news of more cards coming into packs. She was very rare also, just being a mini release card. She went from 500,000 coins all the way down to 400K. I actually picked one up and just sold it right around 445 because it was just a rare card that had a fluctuation. And there was just, again, the theme of the market yesterday once again was just prices dropping. Hanson, started the day yesterday, 1.14. Went all the way to 1.03, bounced back a little bit. Prices on almost all cards are still dropping, guys. But here's where it gets interesting and here's what I wanna talk about. Do we have the opportunity to invest in some cards pretty soon? And the answer might surprise you because last year around this time, and if you think about what has been happening over the past couple of weeks in this game, it has just been prices dropping left, right, and center almost everywhere, right? Everything has been going down. It may remind you of a period on the market that we had a little bit earlier this year called Black Friday, right? What happened this year during Black Friday? Well, Mbappe went from 3.1 mil, which is crazy to think that this gold card was 3.1 million coins, and that's almost how much his play of the month was. Anyways, he went down to 2.2 during Black Friday. Black Friday happens. The market actually rebounds afterwards, right? We talked about that a lot. A lot of you guys made coins off of that. You bought some teams around this low point. He went from 2.2 mil all the way back to almost 2.5, right? 2.43, and then we've been dropping like crazy since the beginning of December, and here we are with this massive drop that we've just been kinda watching over the past couple of weeks. Now, let me show you Mbappe's card from last year because I really think that this is gonna happen again this year to some degree. Mbappe last year from the start of December went from 1.06 million coins. He was a lot cheaper last year. All the way down to literally Christmas day during the Winter Wild Cards promo. He went down to 718,000 coins. And into the first week of January, literally a week later, he goes from 718k all the way back up to 850,000 coins. Like this was his low point until like again, team of the year. And then he went up after that. Like this happened a lot last year with a lot of cards specifically on the lower tier. Look at this Dumfries from the team of the tournament from the World Cup. He went out of packs and went down to 40,000 coins during Winter Wild Cards, but then right after that exploded as he was out of packs, he was like the best right back in the Serie A. I could show you so many examples guys of cards last year that were meta, that were popular, out of packs cards that weren't involved in that re-release that we're gonna see, that we saw last year that we're gonna see today, right? Pedri last year went down to 144,000 coins. His lowest point was actually a couple days after Christmas, but he went from 140k all the way to basically 200,000 coins at this peak right before team of the year. We have this in the last couple of years where prices drop, drop, drop into kind of the holiday period, but you end up having a pretty nice market rise not on everything, but on a lot of cards because you have a whole lot of new players coming into the game. So it's similar to Black Friday in the sense where you have a lot of people that have been selling, selling, selling.  I think the exact same thing is gonna happen this year because it happens almost every single year, but you're really gonna have to pick the right cards guys. I'm looking at Puteus, I'm looking at Van Dyke because these cards specifically are going out of packs. These are gonna be very popular investments. A lot of people are gonna look at VVD as the most popular center back in this game. And if you were getting the game in this time period, you're like, who am I gonna add for a center back? Once I open some packs and get coins to my team, this is a card that a lot of people are going to invest in, right? Now, could he go lower today with all the lightning rounds that are gonna be put out and all the packs and stuff like that because of the best of cards being released? Yeah, there's potential that he could go a little bit lower today, but for him going out of packs, that's gonna be an investment that a lot of people will want to make. What I would tell you guys to do is do a little bit of research or maybe think about somebody that you want for your team. Look through the team of the group stage team. I feel like Cancelo is a very, very good option for a card that will most likely rise a bit out of packs because he's very meta, it's a big name player and from his team of the group stage squad, he is one of the most popular cards, right? Foden is a card that I have my eye on. Klaus, Graven Burch potentially as well. But guys, notice when I'm talking about these cards, the cards that I'm looking at are some of the cheaper ones, right? Zaha would be a card that I would put my eye on as well. SoboSlide, Gavardeo, even Christian Ericsson, Parasich, like those are cards that I would watch if they're not re-released in packs because they are on the cheaper edge of things and when I went back and looked at a lot of card prices last year, the ones that did the best apart from the top tier meta like we looked at Mbappe, the ones that did the best were the cheaper ones. Let's look at Vinny's gold card from last year in FIFA 23. Dropped off all the way down here towards Christmas. He went to a low point of 20,000 coins. He didn't go up that much, right? It's a 25, 20 to 25,000 coin rise for our 86 rated card like Vinny. You have to be careful with the golds. But this year I feel like we have enough top tier meta golds like the Mbappe. We've got Graham Hansen at 300,000 coins. We've got the Puteas that I just looked at. We've got the Vinny this year that's very expensive. Neymar would be a card that I would 100% expect to have some good movements. I mean, he's gone from 128K from the beginning of this month all the way down to 58,000 coins. So like Neymar, I don't know how low he's gonna go. He's obviously gonna be in packs unless they re-release his Thunderstruck which would make him an even better investment. But like maybe you see 53,000 coins, maybe even 55K for Neymar ends up being a really good investment because people that get the game on lower budgets will be going out and buying players for teams. So that is kind of what I wanted to show you guys today in this video is that it's gonna be very similar to Black Friday for a lot of cards in my opinion that cards will drop, drop, drop and then like they have been and then they'll rebound. Go back and do a little bit of research. Road to the knockout cards are a great example of cards that did amazing after Black Friday this year after a rise back after the promo was out. I would also take a look at some trailblazers cards just for again, a little bit of reference to see like, hey, what cards did really, really good last time we had this big crash. Robertson went down from 200K to 185, went right back up. He did come back down again, but like, you know that's just go and do a little bit of research, find some more recent promo cards, maybe some dynasties that have dropped off a lot in this last week. Be careful, maybe you don't buy your cards again right now, but just keep an eye on them between today, between tomorrow, between this weekend. That's kind of the buy time. It's gonna be different for every single card which is why it's really hard to say you gotta buy today or you gotta buy tomorrow. It's gonna be different, but the out-of-packs cards will rise first. So that's the big point that I wanna make. There are some market rises incoming for some cards. So get smart, do us a little research. If you wanna buy a player for your team, could be a decent time to do that if it's a meta out-of-packs player because the market should be doing a lot better in the next week or two than it has been for almost the whole entire month of December. Now speaking of the market, we have one kind of compensation update, specifically with Van Dyke. It means a lot for his card. There was compensation, the whole Euro situation yesterday, guys. I don't know if you saw Usman Dembele's price on the market, but this card went from like 600,000 coins all the way down to 510K. He got supplied yesterday, guys. Remember, we said it wouldn't happen for a couple of days. Everybody who packed the Euros version of Dembele or Grealish or VVD on Monday of this week, the 18th, they compensated already, guys, which was crazy. So those tradable cards, a lot of the Usman Dembele's were put onto the market and his card dropped a lot, of course, right? This one was in packs and it wasn't supposed to be. Same with VVD and Grealish and Quesa and all those guys. So EA did that compensation yesterday, which was crazy to see them do it so fast, but that's a GG. That might've been one of the fastest fixes ever. So if you're wondering why Usman Dembele dropped, it is because that compensation did end up happening. Now, one thing I wanna talk about is Thursday content today. And I wanna make this video 30 minutes again, like yesterday's was, so we'll try to get through it fast. But one of the reasons I want, if you're interested in buying Mbappe, one of the reasons I want you to watch this price today is because Mbappe's Play of the Month is expected to come out today finally. There was a tweet from one of the leakers who did say he expects it to be today. It was in his replies. It wasn't a very popular tweet. But Thursdays are days in the past where League One Play of the Month has come out. Honestly, the last one came out on a Wednesday for Mbappe. We still don't know 100%, but today is the day that is expected and if Mbappe's Play of the Month does drop, I think that might end up making this gold card start to rise back up a little bit because he's dropped off like 200K in the last two days. And I think it's because we're just waiting for that POTM to come out. I think the Play of the Month SBC still guys, it's gonna be four and a half million coins. It's gonna be very, very expensive. And if you invested for it and if you're ready and hoping to see a fodder market rise on those cards, I mean it's possible, but it's gonna have to be a decent price for Mbappe today, in my opinion, and have a lot of 89 rated squads, maybe inside of it to really make fodder move today. I just feel like fodder would go up a little bit, but not a ton. And one of the things that does worry me again, is the packs that are in the code guys. There are some crazy packs that are in the code like we looked at in yesterday's video, that 88 times 11, which is like the ultra or elite wild card pack, whatever it's called. It's not even in here. Now I don't think the 2023 historical Encore pack is in this pack code update though. That's where it guarantees you one of the promo cards, also an 84 times 20. There's an 81, 100 pack that's been added to the code. Winter wild cards, 50 rare golds, 80 plus, includes one winter wild cards item. Here's an elite, oh this is the one. Elite wild cards guarantee pack? No, that's not the one. That's three wild cards, 82 or 86 or above, and then 20 rare golds, 85, and 85 times 20 in that pack. That's crazy. This is the ultra wild card pack. I missed it, it was on the first page. Three wild cards, 87 or above, and 88 times 11. I think it is saying here at the bottom that all items are untradable, but still it's a lot of fodder that's gonna be given out on the top tier. So we'll just have to see. I'm a little bit worried about these store packs, but again, I do believe that if you're gonna see a fodder market rise for an Mbappe SBC, it's gonna be on the 88s and above. So that's that, I think that SBC will be today. Also on Thursdays, we always see marquee matchups. No surprise with that. And of course the best of, right? The loading screen. Once again, once we see who is in this, we'll probably see some movements on the market. Some cards going back up, might be some flipping opportunities, and then of course whoever is in will be going down. Guys, these cards, they come in a packs tomorrow. We'll look at more Winter Wild cards leaks and what we expect after a crazy day today in tomorrow's video. The last thing we could maybe see today is Brahim Diaz was leaked as the pundit pick SBC. And actually this SBC could be really good. His base gold card is five star weak foot, four star skills. Could be a really, really nice SBC if given the proper boost. He's got a couple of really good EVO cards as well. So that's something to watch out for. It might be today, might not be today. And then of course we already kind of mentioned it in passing, but the new season's gonna be coming today. Watch out for maybe players in the rewards, new packs, the XP grind. I'm trying something a little bit different here. I've saved some of my XP, group XP. So like I've got maybe not quite a thousand, maybe, I don't even know. Between all this stuff, maybe right around 1000 XP. We'll see if it carries forward for me today. I'm not expecting it to, but we'll give it a shot, right? But we do have a new season. Maybe check champs rewards as well and see if they update those. See if we get any news or information along those lines as well.  Again, like I mentioned, it feels like it's just right before Black Friday where you had the best of re-released the day before Black Friday. It's a best of today as well. It's gonna be a decent day to open packs, 84 times five. I know informs are in the mud because there were not any new SBCs to come out to make informs go up and investors are kind of selling. So I think informs are like 33,000 coins or they were right around 33K. Yeah, they still are. If we don't get any new SBCs today that require informs that are hyped like a pack, they might not go back up. We'll just have to see. But we could get more upgrade packs today as well because again, new cards are in packs. And I think even on the last time we, Black Friday with Thunderstruck, we had upgrade packs on that Thursday. So I'm expecting a pretty big day of content today guys and check your clubs for this guy as well. Park Jung Bin, he was literally 700 coins on stream. Somebody in the stream found that his Evo was cracked and he's now extinct because you can put him through like six Evos and he becomes a card with like 99 passing or something absolutely disgusting. Insane card, links to Jung Bin's son with the nationality link. And I'm still searching for Ragoni because I'm pretty much locked in on doing his Evo linking to Messi if I'm ever able to pack a Messi. I hope they put radioactive Messi in packs today. That'd be sick. But that's kind of my Evo situation right now. I'm kind of waiting for some of that to take place in my club before I can maybe go and start those Evos. But it's gonna be a crazy Thursday today guys. If you wanna watch it with us we're gonna be streaming live, looking at all the content, seeing what comes out. And of course, watching the market moving there and opening some packs as well and having some fun. But if you're excited for that and excited for Winter Wild Cards drop a thumbs up on the video today. Comment down below if you have any questions and subscribe if you do. See you guys in Twitch stream today. It's been Nathan from The Count. Peace out.


Chuck Yeager was the first to break the sound barrier in the X-1. In October 1947, he reached 1,100 km per hour. We used Mach numbers to signify the multiple of the speed of sound a vehicle travels. This was Mach 1.06. The Lockheed SR-71A Blackbird set the current world's record for jet aircraft at 3,530 km per hour in 1976. That's Mach 3.3. The fastest rocket-powered manned aircraft was the X-15. It set the record at 7,258 km per hour in 1967. That's Mach 6.7. To graph the speeds these cars and aircraft have achieved, we'll need to adjust the units on the X-axis again. This time, we'll make each interval on the X-axis equal to the distance sound travels in air in one second. That's 341 meters. The line at 45 degrees that divides the area in half is the line that represents the speed of sound in air. We're now getting close to as fast as humans and machines can move. The last three we'll cover are all spacecraft. Apollo 10 reached 39,896 km per hour in 1969 as it paved the way for man's first landing on the Moon. I remember watching this launch. The New Horizons spacecraft was launched in 2006, headed for Pluto. It is traveling at 58,536 km per hour. The record for unmanned spaceflight as measured relative to the Earth. It started sending back never-before-seen pictures of Pluto in July 2015. Helios A and Helios B are a pair of probes launched into orbit around the Sun in order to study solar processes. Launched on December 10, 1974 and January 15, 1976, the probes were notable for having set a maximum speed record for spacecraft at 252,792 km per hour. But this speed is measured relative to the Sun, not the Earth. At these speeds, we have to increase the distance intervals again. We'll set them at 10,000 meters per mark. Helios is moving 204 times faster than the speed of sound in air and 17.5 million times faster than the snail in my backyard.


to cook something I don't think I've cooked on this channel yet and it's kind of odd because most of the other sous vide and barbecue guys you know cook steak all the time I know sous vide everything Guga he cooked steak like every day but I haven't done a you know real steak on our on this channel yet so I'm gonna go ahead and do a couple of New York strips that I picked up the other day I already got them pre-seasoned and vacuum packed just thought them out yesterday they're about two inches thick and what I'm gonna do is I'm actually gonna try out this new Gista sous vide rack that they've sent me to kind of try out and I'm gonna be giving some of these away and my drawing coming up on and one of the things I like about it it's got this little strap that you can use to keep it all together and I'm gonna go ahead and put it together and show you how it works it actually is adjustable those are the two sides it has all these different racks in here and then this bar actually holds these two together so it kind of gives it some tension so I'm gonna go ahead and put a couple of these in and we're gonna use this rack to hold down our New York strips and you can use as many or as few of these racks as you need to so since I've only got two packs here I'm only gonna use a couple of them here kind of space them out so that should give us enough but there's two more it comes with you know five individual little set it up divider stakes here I'm just gonna kind of put them right in there just like that and then I'm gonna take this little bar and it holds them right together and that holds that you can actually put a little bit farther apart if I wanted to but that's gonna hold it down it's gonna I got my speed is already up and at temp at 130 degrees 132 degrees and then I'm gonna go ahead and put these steaks in there on the slide and grill feature that you saw in my chicken wing video the other day where the it removes the heat deflector and I can cook right on the grates and I'm also gonna try out a couple of them on the sear box to see which one comes out so I'm gonna go ahead and drop the night's gonna be the first time I'm trying out the camp chef charwood hickory charcoal blend pellets I just got those in so this is the charwood hickory charcoal blend pellets so that's what I'm gonna be searing these on the sliding grill function tonight regular pellet grill part is up to 400 I just turned the sear box on because that thing it's hot pretty quick so I'm gonna go ahead and let those get real hot and I'm gonna go right now I'm gonna go get the steaks out of the bath and get them all see I think I'll be right pulled out and I'm gonna pat them dry real good both of my grill and my sear box or right up the temp so pat these dry really good I'm gonna put some more of my steak rub that's got espresso salt pepper garlic and we're gonna get them on the grill big chambers up to 460 I got the sliding grill open so I'm gonna put two of these right here in the middle on the charcoal on the cast iron grate and I know that sear box is up pretty hot so I'm gonna put two right in the middle of that sear box and I'm gonna close this up close them both up and I'm gonna cook them for about the same time I'm gonna go for about a minute on each side so I'm gonna count down for a minute and I'll see you guys it's been right at about a minute these first turn it over close it back up give it another minute on that side do the same here give it another minute that's another minute I'm gonna turn these the other way so we can get some good grill marks about a minute on this side the same thing here do the one more turn this will be our last turn both of these are looking pretty good you give them one minute and we guys be done go ahead and shift this off and then I crank this down pull these steaks off these look fantastic so just so you guys know I know for a fact these ones here the ones that were cooked on the sliding grill and the big part of the grill with the heat deflector moved and these ones here were cooked on the sear box so remember these here too we used those charcoal pellets so we're gonna that's gonna be interesting to see how that tastes let's just cut right into this part here just kind of show you they are still medium rare the same spot on this one show you guys it's kind of fatty part but still medium rare they got a pretty good sear on them both of still medium rare good sear I'm gonna go ahead and taste this one's the one with the charcoal taste a little bit of the charcoal it's not a really overpowering flavor but I can taste it I can taste it was there you can definitely tell that one had a little bit of a charcoal taste to it but they're both good both of them got a really good sear and I like them I like them both I'm gonna cut this one right in the middle you can see how that turned out do the same with this one so as far as being able to sear they both did a really good job and about the same amount of time so I'm gonna go ahead and finish these up and we're gonna eat some dinner but all right guys I highly suggest you getting those charwood those charwood pellets they're they're pretty good I mean I can taste the charcoal on there it's not really overpowering but I can taste it it'll probably work out better on a less higher temperature cook probably in a 300 degree temperature because they're burning so hot a lot of that charcoal flavor probably burns off but make sure you follow us on facebook like and subscribe and follow us on instagram
