AT Launch Issue

Whats up guys? So I have read the threads about launching/burning out in the automatic transmission, and have successfully launched using the break and throttle method a few times. Now last night, I did the same thing, however once I got the tires spinning and let off the brake, the car seemed to "bog" hard. It was like three semi-violent jolts, and then it took off. I don't really know how to properly explain it. Right afterwards there was a noticeable smell that went away after about a minute of driving. Any thoughts as to what I did wrong/what may have happened? I had no issues driving today, transmission was fine...
