Default Weird starting problem

My 2003 5.4 sometimes will start rough after being warmed up and shut off for a few minutes anyone else have this issue?

does the issue still happen if you cycle the key before starting?

Going to need some more details. Maybe even a video.

No check engine lights?

Does the tach bounce and the engine catch itself until it dies?

It just acts like it's going to stall but if you touch the gas or leave it it'll go back to normal it's just when warm I've heard of hot air going into the motor.
