F=Foil
T=Towel(s)
C=Cooler

Wrap the cooked food in foil, wrap the foil wrapped food in towel(s), place the towel wrapped foil wrapped food in a cooler (preferably warmed), and let it be for a while.

If you want to, you can add apple juice or other liquids to sort of steam the food while it's resting in the "sauna". :D

Welcome to the forum and Bradley ownership.

Welcome to the forum!  I live in the Panhandle, Olds is down St. Pete way and I think there is another FL member.  Don't be a stranger here.

At least an hour...I usually let it go as long as I can stand it.  Personal best so far is 3 hours.  Meat will still be warm enough to eat when unwrapped, so shouldn't have to put it back in smoker or oven.

My last butt spent 4 hours FTC and was still too hot to handle with bare hands.

Welcome Floridasmoker,
I solved Tiny Tim's problem and beat the Wildcat by FTCing both the flat and point of a whole packer brisket.  Last Thanksgiving, the ribbs and brisket went in to the cooler (warmer) at 11:00 AM, flat and ribs came out for serving at 1 PM and the point came out at 5:30 PM for sandwiches, still very warm and tasty.  Some of that turkey was eaten along the way as well but I think my sister had a lot left over.
