We really just have one goal - to make your food life better. Ok that, and be entertained at the same time. And have you learn a few things along the way. So let’s make it 3 goals then.
If you only want the steps to make something, like those vids shot from above with no people, no conversation no nuthin - then we are absolutely not for you. But if you wanna a little fun while you learn, then this is the place.
Cooking doesn’t have to be hard, it just has to be delicious.

THANK YOU ❗️ - Zábava
This comment will likely get buried, but I have a few "lifehacks" that could make this more approachable.
1) Cut the tomatillos and peppers in half so you don't have to flip them
2) Use a hand/stick blender for the salsa, waaay less cleanup
3) use Chipotles in Adobo and blend that up with the seasonings before adding the meat, it'll become a type of paste that'll coat the meat better and that way you don't need to remove the meat from the pot, just shred it with a fork.
4) This works well with a salad, over rice or quinoa, or even just with chips (think of the nachos...)
Fantastic video guys. My mouth was literally watering at the end.
I 100% agree with all of this!!!!
I'm reporting this
@@ogtraxx I reported you

Ok ... I gotta say that Max's photography and editing, the merging of "slow-mo", normal speed, and "extreme-overspeed", is genius. But with no vocal track gaps through it all ... just incredible, just superior. On it's own ... the production draws me in. But, flashy as it is, it is not why I'm here. I have navigated here for Sam's cooking genius. This channel rocks! As I learn to cook ... I am entertained ... in the extreme. Thank you for that.
He's been at it since he was like 12.
It's not hard, hahaha
'Tis not about difficulty. "Tis aboot being a master of time and space! With a large and twinkly dose of wit!
I swear the best meals are when he bites into it, eyes widen, and he has no words.
So literally every video? Lol
Mark Wiens...
He did that with a bologna sandwich once
@@breejames6323 must’ve been a delicious bologna sandwich.
Jesus is LORD
The minute of silent eating at the end was such a mood
I'm from México and I must say that looks like an OG taco de barbacha en maiz. I hope the salsa was really spicy!! Love the show!
Mexican food from Mexico is next level!!!
I'm from México too and I can confirm... but I prefer my barbacoa with salsa roja
I hope he put salt and pepper in the salsa 😳
@@Doitrightdawg13 He put it in the meat. I would rather have to little than to much because the person eating it can always season to taste
@@pavloglez salsa roja from 'Chile de Arbol' all day long
You can also add chopped avocado to the salsa for extra flavor.
Yes please
I'm blessed to be here in south Texas. Almost every grocery store in San Antonio sells beef cheek (cachete de res). We make barbacoa almost every weekend. Put it in the slow cooker Saturday night and wake up to the most amazing tacos Sunday morning! 😋😋😋 My grandparents on my mother's side are immigrants from Mexico. My grandmother taught me how to make it.
The tomatillo is actually from the gooseberry family. I make this salsa often. I like to roast my tomatillos, garlic, onion, and peppers on my Traeger, it gives it kind of a smoke flavor. Good job Sam. Keep it up!
Tomatillos and gooseberries are both members of the nightshade family.
@@gnollman Which means that p**sy Tom Brady doesn't eat'm. 😁
Hey sam here’s why tomatillos are sticky via the internet.
“You'll notice that the tomatillos themselves are sticky underneath the husk. That sticky stuff contains some chemicals called withanolides, which, along with the husk, help ward off insects.”
I wash it off with a little soap and rinse them well so there's no soap on them
@@sheng505 because some people have never used vinegar to clean their veggies...[answering your why question] because of different life experiences.
You could have phrased it as an alternative listing feature and benefits format (which you accomplished in your example.) ex: "you could also use vinegar as a rinse, more food safe than soaps that may have antibiotic properties and harder to rinse.
@@sheng505 I can certainly appreciate that it could be upsetting for you as soap & other chemicals/pesticides can be found in residual. Washing of some type is a very good idea, with vinegars being a great neutralizer, too. Thought I wasn't trying to be contentious with mine. Have a wonderful week.
@@sheng505 You were not being contentious and I thank you for offering the explanation that you did. I have a nephew Joey who is 11 and shares your diagnosis his gift os a very strong language skillset that allowed him to verbalize at a year 10 level in grade 2.
Because of our abilities to reach around the world with the internet, there are groups of people who because of culture, finances or life experiences generally that wouldn't have chosen vinegar as a cleaning agent. It is a very food safe technique and in other circumstances a very tasty food topping, one that I enjoy tremendously. It is also a natural assumption that one makes (to assume that others would share our level of knowledge when in fact, certain conditions and circumstances lead us to very different life choices and experiences.) to wonder why someone else might choose another option when the rightest right there on the top of Your Mind.
I thank you for the gift of our extended conversation and I would welcome further discussion if you wish it.
I am Tim, an old man in the United States. I wish you a prosperous and long Life

I love watching your videos. I remember as a kid I would watch your show on TV. It not because it was the only thing I was able to watch. but it was because you made it look so easy and made me want to cook and you don't use all these fancy ingredients like in usual cooking shows.
Sam you are an absolute legend. Thank you for giving me hundreds of options for meals whenever I’m feeling uninspired with my google searching. 😂
I have your birria tacos recipe in my cooking rotation. Highly recommend everyone try those
I have... next level shit right there...
Yeah when he says he is using bean broth you know he is going cheap. Hence the quotes of “Beef”. Is he really using beef. Or did he catch a stray dog he doesn’t like. Ha he gave himself away when he said and hand signaled us that he is using “beef”. It’s funny because I didn’t see him before to be that chap of a guy. His other recipes are spot on. Real chicken and beef. But this time he qued us in on this may not be real beef. He most likely cooks with stuff he could get and his wife is old school Asian apparently.
Third time making this recipe! Absolutely delicious and the pressure cooker is perfect for this. Thank you for the inspiration and awesome video. Love the ending. Mic drop.
I love when the food is so good that Sam becomes speechless. Making this tonight!!!
I've never seen Sam speechless!!! 🤣 So they means now I absolutely have to make these!!!🥰
the sound your cutting board makes when the knife hits it is amazing!
I love it!! Going to make this tomorrow! Only thing I’m going to do differently is put the ingredients for the salsa on the Weber with some mesquite wood chips!
The Faces you make after tasting your Food....PRICELESS! I am A Fan😁
Omg that taco looks so amazing! That is perfection for sure ^^ Thank you so much for sharing this
Bro this is the most legit Mexican recipe you’ve ever made. Every ingredient is spot on how my family makes it. You made the legit thing. Most “Mexican” restaurants just cook stew meat put taco seasoning and say look it’s Barbacoa! I’m looking at you Chipotle. Also some places call goat barbacoa and cheek meat cabeza. But to me this is it! Great job.
chipotle charge double digits and more for absolute garbage
That is amazing 🤩 I want to try it too and release a video about it 🙏 thanks for the inspiration man 👌🔝
I'm glad you looked up the definition for "unctuous". I kept thinking that word had an unpleasant connotation. I knew what you were trying to say, but... You did pick it as your go to word for many a video, and it was freaking me out. LoL 😂.
I literally made this yesterday for dinner. So good!
I made 9 lbs of your birria recipe and everyone loved them! Thx man! Can't wait to try this one.
Anybody who is complaining with the “thumb down” isn’t thinking. The meat closest to bone is the most flavorful. Of course the skull is made of bone. In Mexico, the meat is called Cabeza, which just means head. - Cheers Sam
Yea I don't get the 14 people that "thumb down" this. I hope they are not from Texas or they must be removed immediately. LOL
In Mexico, they skin the head, take out the brain, and cook it like a pig, bury it skull and all.
@@burnnfly Tacos de sesos o quesadillas de sesos (Brains). Delicious

@@sgholt TexMex is trash my guy.
I absolutely appreciate how authentic this man keeps these recipes! Thank you☺️💚
ugh can’t wait to try this recipe!!! looks AMAZING
I can honestly say that I love you guys for using the correct meat. Everything you guys have done has been amazing. Keep it up. God bless you and your family.
The way he enjoys the taco at the end without saying much proves that it must taste amazing. Sheeeeeeeitt...
You know it's good when he can't even be bothered to do an outro.
Since I found you on CZcams I've been binge watching all of your shows. I love everything I've watched you make so far. I haven't tried anything yet that I've seen you make but I will soon summer is approaching I'm ready!!!❤❤❤❤
I’m so making this this weekend. Sam you have done it again!
In Germany Beef Cheeks are a very common dish cooked in Dank beer sauce and served with dumplings
you know we need a recipe now lol
You know it’s good when Sam is speechless !!
OMG!!!! No words to tell you how great to these are! YUM!!!!!!!!!!
Looks soo freakin good!! Appreciate you all, Sam and Fam!
Don't throw away the juice from the instant pot, throw in 2 cups of rice set for 18 min and enjoy that flavor.
just made this and almost threw it out thanks for the heads up!
This guys doesnt know how to cook and be a good cook. Every good cook know how to use everything in the kitchen
@@fofys55 yeah but not every girl wants a asshole
That stupid snicker before he takes a bite had me almost snot bubble laugh.
In saying this,I'm definitely doing this. Thanks fellas.
YES!! Perfect ending. I was hoping Sam wouldn't speak because it definitely wasn't required after seeing this meal come together. I always see tomatillos at the store and wish I knew what to do with them. Thanks STCG gang!
Oooohh yummy yum. Looked so delicious ! I've never had anything like this but I like that I could use just regular beef roast to try. So good 💗
Early gang! You should make bread pudding, stonewalls bbq has the best bread pudding ever and would like to see your take on it. I tried making it once and it was terrible so maybe you can give me something to follow!
I make pretty good bread pudding: stale pound cake, big cubes, toasted pecans, chopped, soaked in basic custard. Bake like usual. Meanwhile, do a reduction of cranberry orange relish with balsamic vinegar and just enough sugar to take the edge off. When the bread pudding is done, cut in squares and serve in soup or pasta bowls, top with the reduction, and pour cold heavy cream all around the bottom. That was my dessert last Thanksgiving.
@@Hollis_has_questions Sounds fantastico!
Anyone who does not have a pressure cooker, please go out and buy an electric one. I had the one Sam used in this video for about 6 years and it died recently. I now own an Instapot and I am very happy with it. Pressure cookers are incredible. The final products especially with meats and stews are off the charts.
Sam, I have been blogging my food for a couple years now and you have inspired me to make videos! I have a black stone griddle to go with the fleet of smokers so I'm gonna send you some pics of one of your recipes. Keep doing what you do man even my 4 year old daughter loves sam the cooking guy!
Made this over the weekend and it was outstanding. I couldn't find beef cheek, but just used chuck roast meet and it was great. So easy to make in the pressure cooker. The tomatillo salsa is also outstanding. My next adventure is the Birria tacos. I'm waiting on Amazon to deliver my dried chiles tomorrow.
Dam... I should not be watching this before I go to lunch 🥗
Did anyone else catch that little giggle Sam made before he ate the taco? He's so funny
Did you catch on to the “Beef”. With hand quotes. What kinda meat is Sam really cooking. His neighbors dog or sum sh
@@RipRider916 ASTRO!
@@RipRider916 He was talking about the beef curtains.
@@TacoBell5DollarBox gross dude. Very 🤮. Your mind needs a overhaul.
@@dustinmallett1703 One of those slabs was more meat than Astro has on his entire body.
The “sinking in quicksand” move at the end is the best haha
Looks like this family is having tacos!!! Thanks again Sam!
that pressure cooker flashing in the background distracted me so much had to rewatch part of this video like 5 times haha
Lol. don't you just love him! So amusing and I always learn something. 😉
@@hollysweetland297 haha yeah hes great, im a chef and he inspired me more about cooking than working in kitchens, i feel like the kitchens i have worked in all i do is throw meat onto chargrils its kinda depressing haha, then i come watch this food and it re lights the passion for cooking, atleast at home!
Mexican cuisine is very underrated in 🇨🇦
I'm a Canadian who was born in Mexico and I know many traditional North Mexican recipes, my dream is to open a restaurant here in Canada but the food business is very risky 😅
As a Mexican, i hope you feel pleased to hear that I think mexican food is still much better in Canada than in the United States even though it is the most popular cuisine there.
Man Sam the cooking guy, you helped me make my first barbacoa batch and it was amazing!! Thank you so much. I almost gave up eating barbacoa cause of all the fat. From now on I will lean it out and make it at home on Sunday's!!
So I have lived in Arizona for over 20 years and have not been able to find barbacoa like I used to get from the carniceria back home Chicago. I saw your video on how to make it yourself in a freaking instant pot. Well, what the hell might as well give it a try. OMG!! It's the same as back home. It's spot on. I can't believe it. The tomatillo salsa that was also on that video is killer. I roasted the vegetables on the Smokey Joe. It's sweet and smoky I added another jalapeno and Serrano to give it that extra kick. Freaking AWESOME!!! Thank you Sam😁👍👍
I like the Sqouze / Sqeeze reference ! TO THE MOON!
Sam needs to learn from Mythical Kitchen's Josh on how to palm heel strike his garlic :D
every time Sam went to break that up I was yelling palm heel strike
Sven-Erik Axelsson the force is not with Sam while he cooks.
@@chrisworthington1027 You're right...the force is with Sam when he eats. The proof is in the pudding!
That looks goooood!!!! I’ve never made home made tomatillo sauce. Can’t wait to make it!
Oh definitely a must try!!!!
"Guys... this is the best thing I've ever made!"
Did you make it?
Coming from Ironman, it has to be good.
I freakin' love this channel. I like your energy, your recipes, and the funny dialog between you, Max & Chance. I had a crazy idea for a Not-Not week full of unusual recipes. But instead of just not-not tacos, you would do an entire week of different foods. Like, not-not egg rolls: with sloppy joe egg rolls, or pizza egg rolls, each with their own special dippings sauce. Then not-not nachos: with breakfast nachos made with huevos rancheros and spicy sausage. Not-not Po Boy's: with crunchy lobster Po Boys...While I was searching to see if you've already made an egg roll video. I was surprised that the one video I found from several years ago showed you using another mayo that wasn't Kewpie Japanese mayo. That shocked the sh!t out of me!
The Mexican tomatoe salsa makes its return to the channel!! Hype. I’ve been making this since you showed us years ago. GF and I’s favourite salsa. You da man Sam
Making this when I get home thank you for the recipe always like what you cooking on your show.
That was a boning knife Sam. Not a filleting knife my dude.
Sam actually has very little knowledge when it comes to cooking. At best, his skill level is on par with a decent home cook. His poor knife skills,, the fact that he wears a ring while handling proteins, his poor mise en place, his poor cooking methods, his overall lack of safe food handling....all scream amateur. I have no idea how this guy managed to open 3 restaurants.
@@akasgsvirgil9503 hi, I’m an absolute amateur, and I recognize what you’re saying about his skills (compared to other chef videos I watch.) But I like the types of dishes he makes, and his recipes come out very good! Cheers!
@@bryanhayes9728 Just think of how much better they would be if he actually knew what he was doing.......
@@akasgsvirgil9503 true facts! 👍
@@akasgsvirgil9503 pretty sure he doesn't care because he's just having fun making some simple food, he is just showing how easy it is to cook like this at home. Why does he need to act like a pro and take off his ring? He's not in a kitchen or prepping food all day.. I think you are missing the whole point of his show and what he's trying to do.
Sir. Buy a lemon squeezer. lol. My ancestors haven’t squeezed lemons by hand for centuries. Lol
You must have weak hands
@@latinlingo44 👏🏼👏🏼😂
Outstanding!!! I just had dinner but now I’m hungry again!🤤
Those barbacoa tacos look oh so delicious! I need these in my life ASAP!
I want a sam the cooking guy fine dining challenge episode where you don’t cook easy too make things for us instead we get to see u suffer cooking stupidly complicated things
It will never happen. Sam has literally no knowledge of cooking technique.
@@akasgsvirgil9503 yet somehow makes incredible dishes 😂😂
@@bredockschannel7331 yeah, if your culinary preference consists of Taco Bell and McBowels. If this guy was an employee in one of his restaurants, he'd get fired.
@@akasgsvirgil9503 Sam can make delicious food, leagues better that Mickie D's or American knock off tacos you find at that bell. He intentionally makes easy dishes because he wants people to make their own food at home.
@@bredockschannel7331 Sam lacks a fundamental understanding of cooking. Period. He has no concept of building depth of flavor. He has no understanding of how the Maillard Process works. His mise en place is terrible and his safe food handling is even worse.
He thinks the knife that he's using in this video is a filet knife. Its a boning knife....huge difference.
His knife skills are absolutely terrifying.
In a video not too long ago, he dropped food on the ground, picked it up and used it. When he was called out by many viewers, he made it a point in his next video to say that it didn't matter because he was home. No. He's holding himself out as a professional. Professional chefs do not use food that's touched the floor regardless of where they are. Do you think Doctors only wash their hands after taking a shit while at work?
What makes this guy popular are two things: 1) he has a great personality and viewers find him very likeable and relatable; and 2) the people who watch his videos don't know any better.
Imagine being his neighbor and smelling all that delicious food.
Astro!
why do you think the gardeners are ALWAYS there, lol
The giggle right before Sam takes a bite! Priceless!
Sitting by a pool visiting mom at her winter snowbird place taking in the pool watching good food made, yum. I cannot wait till I make my mom the Filet mignon with bacon wrapped it will be good!
I’m shocked he didn’t put some color on the meat before putting in pressure cooker. He always does
Sam: Let’s say you want to make Barbacoa 🌮 🌮 but you don’t feel like digging a pit, putting all the dirt on the side, burying the meat. Filling it back up and then letting it cook for hours and hours and hours, what do you do? Me: You pressure cook that Shit!
Sam, I made these tacos last night and I really was so impressed
That chuckle before his first bite was my mood every time I eat any taco 👌🏽👌🏽
Tell Kelly she had forgotten her red thong at my house last week can you have her come grab them my wife will get mad
Wtf...
Funny man, huh? Nobodies laughing
Sam knows hes ok with it
The ending was amazing, keep that.
Just made this! My house smells freaking amazing!
Always makes my mouth water 👌🏽😫
Hi Sam. I made this today and is muy bueno! I put less cumin since I know is a bit stronger and it was really good! Gracias!
Sam you were lost words after that first bite! That's how delicious I anticipate it is!
Those tacos 🌮 are so amazing and tempting to feast on.
Sam...this is one I will definitely try. Thanks buddy!
great show guys, and awesome looking Barbacoa!
Love your channel. Tried most of your recipes. You make me laugh and chuckle. I love that.
I love it when you say. Put three of these garlic cloves in ..(puts in 4) .... put a little onion in (puts half an onion)... put one bay leaf in (puts two in and says well... they are only small)
Love to all from Wales 🏴 UK
the reaction to the bite is so funny. nice EP
Can't wait to try this!!!!
I make these once a week now. Love them!
That Tomatillo sauce is awesome! Never knew it was so easy to make! Best ever!
This looks amazing. I think I’d give the tortilla a quick dip in the juice then build the taco.
You guys are great. Cheers!
That salsa looks amazing roasting the vegetables is my favorite salsa
I need that salsa in my life. And as soon as I get a pressure cooker I'm making this dish.
Best episode ever! Well done gentlemen.
I’m making this right now!! 🤤
I didn't know beef cheeks could taste so good Sam, I will definitely try this one. Thank you man. 😎🌮👍
Great recipe! Even better show!
I’m Mexican and never thought about using the oven to char my chiles and tomatillos. Thanks for the great tip 👍🏽 seems to work just like the comal. Btw your salsa is definitely approved 👍🏽👍🏽
Buddy had a whole moment. FOODGASM!!! 🤤
You make it look so easy!!
Wow....amazing recipe....thank you
Love the ending!! As AB always say don’t over talk it!
loving the recent content guys keep it up!
Mexican food is hands down the best and you do it justice!
