Very rough engine from cold

When my car has been sitting in the driveway for maybe a day or so, maybe over the weekend. I start it up to drive after that time period and idle is extremely choppy, the revs are at the normal level but the engine sounds almost like a lawnmower "chuff chuff chuff chuff" I starting driving and the "chuffing" doesn't go away it just gets faster. It has actually made me stall at an intersection at some point. After about 5-10mins of anxious driving it finally returns to normal. It has happened consistently the last 3 start ups. Any ideas?
