A "Ukrainian frontline BBQ pitmaster" is trying very hard to farm food subreddits for karma

/u/Pitmaster4Ukraine is an American-Dutch man who a year ago started posting BBQ food with stories about cooking on the front line of the war. He scatters his posts across pro-Ukrainian and food subreddits. He even has his own website https://www.pitmaster4ukraine.com.

He posts this average-looking food with titles like:

• Made a surf and turf, for a great team at work on the zero line..

• Whole hog Asado 20 kilometers from zero line Oekraine, a bed room with a view ..

• How we make good bbq at zero line in Ukraine.

• Made some chickens at the zero line (frontline Ukraine) for hungry soldiers at absolute zero..

His comments are nonsense combined with a complete lack of modesty:

• They really appreciate this,, at first they think no way a new weapon training.. and then there is good food as a weapon.. 😅

• We fight with elbows and knees,, bbq is bbq, until you only hit it on a gas stove ..

He's always very eager to explain that zero line is even more dangerous than the front line.

You'd expect this combination of pro-Ukraine and BBQ to farm upmarseys like crazy, but most of his submissions barely make it off the ground. His best submission has 7k upmarseys and posts on page 2 of his profile go as low as 200 upmarseys. Some of his posts are even removed, such as this attempt at making it big in /r/foodporn (even more impressive because /r/foodporn loves shitty food + a sob story):

Buffalo wing time.
