    we all do appreciate all you folks do for us❣💪🏻. consistent, quality production, creative recipes, all that. i also get bored with the same thing all the time, and it's also probably good nutritionally to mix it up some.

  • @howardsmith5547
    @howardsmith5547 Před 9 měsíci +7

    Sam, I just found your channel this past week. Your cooking is right down my alley. I cooked the onion and garlic rice the first chance I got. Then I cooked your fried rice. I just finished cooking the crack chicken. I added a can of rotel, a jalapeno, onion, and about 8" of serrano. I used a baster to remove most of the liquid before shredding the chicken and mixing. I followed you and stirred in some cheese with the bacon, then added more to the top. It's awesome. our food taste must be alike, it's got to have plenty of flavor. Since you like chicken thighs so much, add about 5 of them to a 2 lb bag of pinto beans. They're a perfect match. Next I'll make the spaghetti and meatballs, and I'll make the spaghetti. I'll continue watching .

    Thank you so much for this video!! I just grilled 2 whole tilapia with your method and they came out amazing. It took about 15 mins per side at 400F to crisp up the skin and be able to flip easily no sticking. I had half chimney full of Kingstown competition charcoals plus some prob another half chimney from the previous cook and was able to cook the 2 whole tilapia plus 10 chicken drumsticks

  • @FoulOwl2112
    @FoulOwl2112 Před 9 měsíci +3

    If you can get your hands on some Pompano, that's the best whole grilling fish there is. They don't even have to be scaled. And there's a layer of fat under the skin that renders them sorta self-basting.

  • @cmoore185
    @cmoore185 Před 9 měsíci +2

    I was watching another cooking show and the chef gave a great tip for zesting. He said when you put the fruit on top, you can not tell when you get into the white. Itt is getter to hold the fruit and use the zester on the top, then you can see exactly what you are doing. I thought it was a great tip.

    HEY SAM !
    Couldn't find the egg toast video today, so I'm posting here.
    My 11yo grandson was hungry, & since I was thinking about egg toast anyway......
    I didn't have all the extras you added, so we had to go minimalist -- bread, egg, Meunster cheese, and your bff.
    Not pretty results on mine, but my boy hit the perfect addition : pancake syrup!
    My taste buds jumped up, ran around my mouth, out my lips, and around my head and back! ADDICTIVELY GOOD!
    Thanks for what you do!

  • @RonOnTheGrill
    @RonOnTheGrill Před 2 měsíci

    So THAT'S what I did wrong, lol! I grilled some whole Catfish fillets a while back, and while we loved them, they definitely stuck to the grill. I cooked mine indirect. It went fine until I tried to put them over the hot coals to sear them. EVERYTHING came off man, lol! The seasoning, skin, everything. And we STILL loved it. I can't imagine how much better they'll be next time, now that I know to cook them direct. These guys were beautiful!

    I have also fried my catch over hot campfire coals in my cast iron Dutch oven!!! Ha

    Have to agree with DonPandemoniac! Excellent recipe and instruction, as always!! Sam, you have been our family's most loved TV chef from way back - 15 yrs maybe, when we would eagerly wait to watch your newest episode on Monday nights on public broadcast TV. We still follow a lot of those recipes, esp the pizza, and we all agree you have made us better cooks- all members of my family cook, and cook well, thanks to you! We love your recipes and your unique style of humor!. Kudos to your team and all your quirky comments 😉

    @rickyspanish492 Před 9 měsíci

    The fish look awesome!
    Tip for using a microplane:
    Only go in one direction as going in both directions will push the blades down over time, dulling it. For best ease of use, put the microplane on top of whatever you are using and not the other way around. If the lemon is on top, you can't see what you're doing as well, whereas if the grater is on top, you have more control and visibility over what you are doing.

    Meatballs and Penne in a Spinach and Tomato Cream Sauce

    Meatballs:
    Ground pork
    Panko bread crumbs
    Ricotta cheese
    Garlic powder
    Salt
    Pepper
    Form into balls (I like big balls)
    Sear all sides in cast iron then throw in 400° oven until 155° internal (carryover to 160° or whatever).
    Tomato Cream Sauce:
    Butter... Flour... Roux... Milk... Bechamel
    Garlic powder, salt, white pepper
    Add in marinara sauce. I bought Rao's, but make it if you want.
    Italian seasoning
    Salt and pepper to taste
    Plate it up:
    Add pasta and whatever pasta water to marinara cream sauce to make it nice.
    Get to simmering then add spinach until almost wilted.
    Add meatballs and toss to sauce.
    Garnish with green and Parm.

    I grill salmon all the time. Cut fillets into serving size and grill skin side down, don’t flip. Oil the skin, and if it sticks no big deal, you don’t eat it anyways. The meat will lift off the skin easily once it’s cooked.

Turn the lid (cut off portion) upside down and stick it back into the bottle until it sticks. Leave it sitting outside for a day. Watch how many flies it will catch. Best fly trap ever !!
