Who doesn’t love a bit of spam and fruit mashed up together? As a special treat for you guys and Mr Stuart Ashen, I dug up a retro Spam recipe for us to enjoy together! I can’t say the picture on the recipe card for these Spam Fiesta Peach Cups was all that inviting, but it did say that it would “bring California’s sunshine to winter meals”! If you fancy giving this one a go (really?!), the vintage recipe for Spam Fiesta cups is below.

Ingredients list:
1 tin of Spam, ground
45g (½ cup) oats
120ml (½ cup) milk
2 tbsp ketchup
1 tsp mustard
1 tin of halved peaches
Spam Fiesta Peach Cups Recipe
The first step is to COMBINE all the ingredients aside from the peaches. The recipe did call for “catsup”, so we assumed good old ketchup would be the modern, UK equivalent, and prepared mustard, so I came prepared with American style mustard.
We then simply SHAPE into 6 balls and PLACE inside the hollows of the halved peaches. As I mentioned, I couldn’t get tinned peaches but I thought apricots would do the trick. Whether they ruined the recipe or not, who’s to say?!
The next step is to BROIL (or grill, as I’ve discovered through experience!) for about 10-12 minutes about 6 inches from the flame, or the “lightsaber” depending on your oven. Ours took quite a bit less time to look charred (or scarred?!) on top, so keep a close eye on them.
Then the final step - EXTRA-GOOD EATING! Because “Spam is the exclusive blend of sweet juicy pork shoulder and mild tender ham.”
I’ve got to be honest, it made my eyes water a bit, and not because I was emotional about it!
If you want to salvage it in some way, slather on more of the mustard and ketchup until you can’t taste any of the spam or the fruit. That’s the trick, all you can taste is condiments so it’s a bit like a hot dog!

Are there any retro or vintage recipes you've come across that you think I should try?

Sugar cream pie would be fantastic 😊😊😊😊😊
These kind of monstrous retro recipes are the kind of thing I expect from B. Dylan Hollis; you could do some collab/cross-promo stuff by getting recipe recommendations from him?
Two that are interesting -
• tomato soup cake (from the 1930s Depression)
• various jello (R) salads with cream, fruit and nuts (roughly 1950s and 60s)
Try some of those aspic/gelotine/jelotine? Savoury rings 😂
Can you try an 'is it cake?' Vlog? Where you make a replica of an object in cake? Or have you already done this and I've missed it? 😊
There is a reason Barry and Ashens don't do a lot of videos together very often and I know why. They blame it on the travel distance but i know the real reason is because they need time for their guts to heal from some of the stuff eaten/drunk.
Knowing that Ashens gave Nerdcubed lactose intolerance during Christmas, it makes sense.
Lore drop
Exactly! 🤣👍
Correction: Barry needs time to recover. Ashens has an iron stomach from years of eating or drinking long expired items.
Barry: Points out the unique shape of the weighing bowl, intended for pouring the contents out.
Also Barry: Ignores the shape completely to dump it out the side.
Thank you! I was telling him (loudly) through my phone screen that he was doing it wrong 😂😂

SPAM FIESTA PEACH CUPS sounds like a line from a deleted verse of "I Am The Walrus".
SPAM FIESTA PEACH CUPS
Climbing up the Eiffel Tower...
or Billy Joel's _We Didn't Start the Fire_
or REM's _The End of The World_
“it just tastes like cooked spam on apricot “ - funny, that. 😂
1970s recipes are quite the fever dream. Combining things that should ABSOLUTELY NOT be combined.
"California sunshine" is absolutely my term for dog barf now.
On so many levels, it's just so fitting.
Especially since I've had to deal with all three at the same time.
Long live the collab team of the ages that is Barry and Ashens.. :)
It is always awkward to cook in a strangers kitchen, so not surprised that Ashens had trouble using the grill. Hope they got out before the owner got back, and that the smell did not linger.
It always feels like a special treat when we get to see parts of Ashen's house that aren't his sofa.
You and Ashens are amazing together barry! Thanks for all your these awesome collabs!
When it comes to spam, you could have a go at making your own, just needs a lump of ham, a pork shoulder, a mincing machine, a starch of some kind, some pink preserving salt (not the himalayan stuff, actual meat preserver stuff) and a brick, yes, a brick, cos you need something to compress it, TheWolfePit did a video some years ago on making his own DIY spam, turned out to be much better than the tinned kind... :D
+1 for the WolfePit, he keeps it real!
Loving the Stone Cold Stuart Ashens look!
Looking at all those ingredients in the bowl before it was mixed looked like the worst breakfast cerial you could ever have 😂
"Breakfast Mess, Breakfast Mess, It's the one we love the best."
Hahaha ikr 🤣👍
If you want to actually enjoy yourselves eating spam, I'd recommend either a Hawaiian or Filipino recipie. Musubi or spam tocino with eggs are wonderful eats. Thanks for the fun video 👏
Don't forget to save the can for a refreshing SPAM cocktail. And yes, that is a thing...
American here. Broil means just the top heating element in the oven is on and it's on full blast. Also thanks Stuart, going to have that 🎶 🎵 Spam balls 🎶 🎵 in my head today 😅😅
So much Barshens vibes, I LOVE IT! utter madness.
Needs Eli to describe the "huff" and the "amplitude".
SPAM FOR SLEPP
LOVE Spam! Thanks for this Barry! It really needs more chances to shine! 🤤🤤🤤🤤❤️❤️❤️
Why just nut buy real fuxking beef?
Long live @Barshens in any form we can get it! ❤ Nice to see you guys together again.
When I was a kid, my dad brought a canna Spam home, and after my mom cooked it, she told him never to bring another one home ever again. None of us like the taste or smell of it and to this day, I have not eaten or boughten any of it, and never will.
Recipes like this one make me glad I'm a vegetarian
"One more. For luck!" - this is how I cook.
You and ashens are like peas in a pod. Great video Barry and Ashens!!
It’s good to see you doing another video with Stuart, you guys have such good chemistry.
From what I remember about the factory they use premium cuts of meat for spam and they cook it in the can. I love spam. Spam sandwich, you fry the spam and you put it on bread with mayonnaise, it is absolutely delicious.
I remember my Mum yelling the words "cut as thinly as you can" It was my job to make everyone's lunches and I always thought Oh dont you worry bc that stuff is disgusting. Sometimes she would slice it and fry it. One has to cover it up with ketchup to hide the flavour. Lol
This was a fantastic video. I agree with Ashens…the recipe was horrible. My favorite part was when he said he might be slightly offended if you left the food in his house. Thanks for the video and the laughter on a Monday morning!
I did spot that the new tin and the old one pictured with the key were both 340grams, so no shrinkage at all! The same spammy goodness of old if you ignore today prices! Love you and Stuart Ashen together.
While Ashens may think fruit and meat is awful together, one of the best dishes I've ever had was my MIL's brisket made for Passover. The brisket, after cooking and slicing, is cooked again with apricots and prunes in a gravy thickened with ginger snaps. It's incredible. Everyone who used to come for Passover (30-40 people) adored it.
And in the U.S. I know people make ham with pineapple on top and love it.
It depends on how you prepare it.
Spam is like cilantro, you either love it or wish you could write it from the face of the earth.
Hilarious. Love you guys together. But … I usually make your recipes this one I will just watch you and Stewart eat. Lol
I love Stewart Ashens!
Some things should stay in the 70's 😂
Being someone who lives in Minnesota, USA, the home of Spam, and who also lived through the seventies, I've had any number of Spam dishes in my time but ground Spam on peaches (apricots) is a new one.
I still enjoy Spam as it is excellent sliced thin and pan fried until the edges are a bit crispy.
I'm sorry you had to experience our native meat in such a poor receptacle. 🤣
One item that was also a popular side dish in the seventies was Jello with savory things in it such as celery, tomatoes, and mayonnaise. It would be very interesting to see you boys try one of these "interesting" recipes.
I absolutely LOVE you two together, it's always hilarious. 🤣🤣
When the "food" came out of the oven, a fly flew past my TV. It took me a few seconds to realise that it wasn't part of the video.
1:31 the Sainsbury’s own brand of “Chopped Pork and Ham” still has the key to,open it..
hey barry please bring ashens back alot i love u both as a duo been watching both of u for years!
It's so nice to see you two together and having fun
Without the peaches, ketchup and milk it would perhaps made a nice meatball. I have to admid I don't mind spam, in Germany it is called Breakfast meat and fried in a pan I find it quite tasty...once or twice a year
I don't think four words have ever made me feel so aggressively ill.
Bring back Barshens!
The steps are like the ones that you would get on the great British bake off
Love seeing my two favorite (and first) CZcamsrs together.
Used to love Spam sandwiches and fritters but had some a couple of years ago and it was far too salty for me now.
Great video, always a laugh when you and Ashens get together.
Somehow I've never tried spam, but I know in Hawaii they use it all the time and apparently make delicious dishes. And there is lower sodium spam which I might give a try.
your best bet is the low sodium spam. still isnt the healthiest thing, but it's a lot better than the alternative
It's always fun watching vids of you two together.
Spam is Amazing... Slice it up and fry it... Yum...
Thank you Barry and Stuart for this masterpiece of disgust. 😂❤
I love that it says "One whole SPAM" like it's not a substance, but an object. It's not a can of SPAM or a loaf of SPAM, it's just a SPAM.
"I dunno, feels wrong now, Barry..." That was my immediate thought then as well.
These two guys doing something together is some of my favorite CZcams. Thanks for driving!
You two together are brilliant. Please do the advent calendar together
10:10 When Ashens says something is unpleasant you know it's REALLY unpleasant
Loving these videos! It’s like a little nugget of Barshens back again, more of these please!
It was so nice seeing Barshens together again! It's been too long! Great content, guys!
My husband’s mother sliced and fried spam like a rectangular hamburger. And they ate it as a hamburger. At the time there was a recession. The same recession at my house, my mom stretched meat with pasta, and potatoes. But we didn’t stoop to SPAM!
"Spammy waft" is a great name for a band
no one take that, it's mine! lol
I love retro recipes, how we used to eat; love the insights. I’ve brought many old recipes upto date or slightly adjusted other countries recipes which needed it to modern tastes. You aught to make the retro recipes a thing Bazza 😎👍🏼
Barry and Stuart. These 50s - 60s horror tv dinners were the main reason I abandoned all US cooking and dove into French, Chinese, Indian etc. cooking and never looked back. If you want really nightmarish vintage suggestions I think one of the worst of the lot are the sweet gelatine desserts with tuna and salad veggies. I tremble just thinking of it. You guys are very funny and great to watch as you wolf down the little franken-appetizers. All the best Jim retired Mexico
Barshens ... Yaaaay!
That really does look like dog sick, kitty litter (the oats) with ketchup and mustard to mask the flavour 😂😝 or maybe its a secret recipe on how American pink hot dogs are made...? 😝
CZcams has a video on Pink Slime, what they make processed meat from. I've a strong stomach and almost 🤢. I still eat hotdogs, bologna and Vienna sausages.
Barry you need to get the Spam cookbook. Yes it's a real thing.
Spam slices fried in Old Bay with fries, meal of Kings.
Normally letting two young kids (trust me) "help" in the kitchen, is a very bad idea! In this case I loved it. Thanx guys. 💙👍
This is how a recipe should be written! Clear and consise and not with 'extra' hidden steps.
what any good recipe really needs is a 5 page paragraph about how the food should make you feel sandwiching the actual steps and ingredients making them impossible to find
Stuart, thanks for the mental image whilst I'm eating my tea
When they were talking about how the old spam tins were larger, they showed a picture of an older tin. It clearly shows that it contained 12 oz/340 g of spam, which is the same as the new one.
Thank you both for taking one for the team!😂 Fruit and meat should *never* be combined except for the explicit reason of torturing your enemies!
I love spam, fried on toast is so good 😋
glad to see you guys collabing again more often, i always love it
Stuart, your cabinets make it look like you guys are in Total Recall and also like the 70s got left outside without a tarp over it, and also like an undercooked and unseasoned pork rind. For the love of god, can I please come over and paint them white for you? It would go so much better with the darker taupe on the kitchen walls.
love the ashens "shaved villain" look
Not a retro recipe, but you should try sliced spam(1/2 to 3/4 cm thick), season with garlic powder, fry it in schezuan oil just until it starts to brown, then pour ponzu sauce over it while still on the heat, both sides. Serve on toast with mayo and a slice of tomato. Kind of an asian fusion sandwich. It is tasty and my Spam hating children actually used to ask for those for lunch.
guys, just admit it. you’re bringing barshens back whether you want to or not :P
Love it when you 2 get together - more of this please! Especially need more Will It... vids! 😁
Its good to see that Ashens takes his membership of the League against Fruit with Meat seriously, Mister Silverman is bound to be proud
Love these videos. That said, I grew up in the States during the 70's and would have run like hell if my mom ever made this for dinner.
Thanks for trying this so no one ever has to again
I feel like this recipe would be better with bbq sauce instead 👌🏻
Now THIS is the content I subscribed for!
Can we have more Barry and Ashens content please!
I love you two together so much
SPAM is huge in Hawaii. Many people grab SPAM musubi for breakfast on their way to work. There are even some restaurants in Hawaii that serve cocktails in SPAM cans. There's an annual SPAM-jam street festival in Waikiki in April.
Love your content with ashens!
Only one thing Spam should be used for is... Spam Fritters, or as there used to a chippy in North Wales that did them battered, a taste explosion, for winners.
Catsup is the original spelling. Then at one point Heinz wanted to stand out by purposefully misspelling it as ketchup, and with Heinz's popularity, it became a generic name
Yay, more Barry and Stuart hilarity!!!
Love you guys!!
Slice it, then fry it,I like mine crispy. Slice some onions, fry them, make a sandwich place spam on bread, then add mustard, but onions on, eat with potato chips 😋
Very interesting recipe & thanks Barry n Steward 🤔👍
I love the pause and synchronised "Extra Good Eating" the first time you reached it 😂
my fav videos, barry and ashens
the best duo
Good old spam, very retro
Haha you two are a comedy pair!!! I loved the Ashens/ Lewis collab!
Some of my favorite English men.
So great to see Ashen
I love spam so i might try this
Takes me back to school... Spam Fritters and Chips.. I used to cover that in ketchup.
I love you two bantering together. Its a great partnership. Pity about the 5 hour drive.
All that Spam and not a Viking in sight!
