- Making fried shrimp tacos at home is way too easy to not do it more often. Add a homemade flour tortilla and some bang bang sauce and you've got yourself a mini vacation at home.

Thanks for "lowering the barrier to entry for us home cooks" out here. Appreciate your service.
Appreciate you view and comment!
@@BrianLagerstrom This is my favorite part about this channel, making my job easier as a home cook is amazing man.
ONLY real home cooks heat 5 gallons of oil to deep fry a half pound of skrimpz!!!
As someone who kinda sucks at cooking. I find deep frying significantly easier and less high maintenance than shallow frying
*Everyone likes that*
A tip on the slaw: if you're really planning this ahead, combine the cabbage, lettuce, and salt a good hour ahead of time in a colander over a bowl. This will purge out a good amount of water from the vegetables allowing you to then dress it with the other ingredients without it all turning into a soupy mess 15 minutes later.
Indeed. He does that in a much earlier video on fish tacos. Good technique.
Token Mexican here! Our tortillas are never perfectly round. You don’t want them to look like the state of Texas but what you had before you used the bowl was perfectly beautiful.
I agree. I like them rustico, they are so good
You are by far my favourite youtube chef now. Practical and fun! This will be made tomorrow!
Before I discovered this channel I didn't know what was missing from my life, but now I know it was happy eating dance montages.
Thanks Will! Glad they don’t make you cringe haha
Whelp that tortilla container thing is now called a "Tortilla Dojo" at my house from now on.
🙏🙏🙏
Oh my god, I made this last Sunday, honestly one of the best dinners we've had in ages -- perfect for summer -- ratio of work to deliciousness was incredible -- you keep knocking it out of the park thank you!
Hi Brian! 👋🏻 made these last week and it was the best seafood related taco I’ve ever had. And I’ve eaten a lot of fish and shrimp tacos as a native Floridian. My husband loved it too. Thank you so much!
Thanks very much!
i have been binging these videos for the last 2 weeks or so and i have been learning a lot. what i appreciate most about this channel (or you) is that you ACTUALLY have restaurant experience and are not just some overly enthousiastic homecook with good production values (aka weissman babish and the rest). In short: i like this channel and will (hopefully) enjoy it for a while. Greetings from germany and all the best.
Thanks for watching and the kind words. I am really happy you found the channel. Hopefully I can continue to make vids you dig!
Tried this yesterday and it was amazing. Definitely adding it to the 'go to' recipes. Thank you!
As a former restaurant manager who now works in a hospital, please, when you get a mandoline, also get a set of cutproof gloves. I know they're not very cheffy and all, but you and I are not chefs, and we definitely do see people in the ER for mandoline cuts.
Every time I try one of your recipes I had to dance after tasting it, I think it's contagious
Haha that’s dope
You can also cut the lard into the flour with an old-fashioned tool called a pastry cutter. Hey that's my mandolin! If you want to avoid cutting your hand with the mandolin get yourself one of them fish filleting gloves.
Im an idiot and go freestyle on the Mando. I cut myself a lot early in my career, now I’m a trained mandoline specialist haha
I use a glove every_single_time. Family friend is a concert violinist... you know the rest of the story.
I sliced the tip of my middle finger off about a year ago and that was the end of barebacking it. The nice thing about those gloves is you can rinse them off if necessary or if they get really juicy, I toss it in with a load of laundry...

Tips like adding fresh bread crumbs between batches is the information i crave, subtle techniques that help elevate the level you can cook at.
You never cease to amaze me, not one of your recipes I've tried has disappointed! I made this with cod instead of shrimp and wow, the flavor combinations 🤤 probably one of the best meals I've ever eaten, fantastic job as usual!
"Florida, you're not there for the food, dood." (proceeds to cook frozen Key West Shrimp in St. Louis) LOL Bri!
Wow. One hour and you already have 1.5k views! It should be 15k though; you are so underrated!!
Thanks David! Hopefully one day
That looked SO good. Will def be on the menu here soon...!
Those look freakin amazing. Those tortillas are a work of art. When they balloon like that, you know you did it right. You're the best, B.
All of those components squeezed into a 10-minute video without sacrificing content. Wildly impressive. Great video as usual! Looks delicious.
Thanks Dan! I’m trying to hit that Efficiency haha
most definitely gonna be making these!! Thank you for such great content and useful information, Cheers from Canada!
Thanks Dude! Canada in the house 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Incredible recipe!! Best tacos I’ve made yet! I’d recommend do a little panko at a time, to avoid wasting as much.
Sounds like a must try
Florida has amazing shrimp and seafood
Man I’ve been waiting for this episode for a loooong time!
Another great one!
These look amazing!!!! Tried your ciabatta recipe and it was great. Would definitely wanna try making this one as well😋
Would love to see a video where you show us your favorite homemade sauces. Every sauce I've made from your videos are awesome.
That looks so good! 10/10
Brian, thanks for the recipe. I have been searching for the flavors in this recipe. I love the sauce and the slaw.
Whoa, Bri! Good eaten’! Can’t wait to try this one!
I seldom come across posts like this! This is inspiring and makes me want to try it!
You are so entertaining 🤣 thank you for sharing your recipes with awesome entertainment 😀 😊 ❤😘
Looks amazing. I will have to make these tacos.
Here is the biggest like for the best Chef. Thank You soooooooooo much for this great dishes.
Looks so good
Bri, I am making your recipe of thin crispy pub style pizza tonight for friends and decided next weekend will be shrimp tacos! Rock on man ...love the videos 💕
The 🐐 of cookin
Oh dude! Thanks
such an underrated channel man. your vid on the beginners bread loaf got me into baking and these tacos look amazing gotta try making this next. ty for the dope vids
You can do a japanese take on this easily with some pickled ginger, wasabi mayo, wakame, salsa, squeeze of lime and some sesame seeds;)
Give it a try...
Florida seafood is criminally underrated
Shrimp catch at the end. KILLER
Nice job Bri, these look great
Thanks Shuman!
Thanks for the panko size and texture info. That explains a lot and answered a few questions for me. Next time I do tortillas I have to go back to lard - been using coconut oil (solid at room temp). Lard is the traditional way and Mexican Mamas swear by it.
Good on ya, mate! Yours are the best videos I've seen on how to prepare sumting!
Thanks man!
Keep up the great work!
Hey Bri... made this tonight and enjoyed yet another one of your excellent recipes. It ended up taking a bit longer than I thought it would but man oh man, sooooo good. Tangy limey slaw, perfectly complimented by the spicy and sweet sauce and crunchy shrimp. I used store bought tortillas cause I'm lazy but still, came out great and definitely going to make this again. Dope Shrimp Taco achievement unlocked!
love what you do!
Thanks James!!! Thanks for the comment
It's kind of silly how much I enjoy watching your videos about cooking foods that I have no desire to ever eat
Haha not a shrimp person? Thanks for watching
Absolutely binging your videos at the moment
Outstanding. My new a
favorite YT cooking channel.
You should be in the millions of subscribers!! Great videos! Between you and Sam the cooking guy, I don't need another cooking channel!!
Thanks for watching
Made this for dinner tonight. Sooooooooo good
Nice! Thank you!
😋 I started making flour tortillas during the pandemic. My recipe uses olive oil and they are good and surprisingly easy. I had some good shrimp years ago in Florida, they had some kind of horseradish down the back where the vein is, wrapped in a 1/2 piece of bacon and grilled served with BBQ sauce. I still rememer them 30 years latter. 😉
Sounds dope
The dancing at the end was the best!👏😜
Great content Brian, love your presentation style. I am making this tonight. Can't wait.
Thanks very much for watching, enjoy
@@BrianLagerstrom Slight audio typo in the video, you say "medium low" for the tacos, when making them, "medium high" was what worked. The dish was amazing, all elements, even got my teen son eating slaw for the first time!
Awesome video, as always! Keep up the great work buddy!
Thanks Jb!
Definitely making these
Thanks I hope you do!
This looks incredible. Like everything you present, just amazing. Lorn is a very lucky lady, and I'm sure that you are a very lucky man.
This tacos looks DELICIOUS!!!! 🤤
florida has some of the best food I have ever eaten. its a Metropolis of food culture...
Yum
Definitely making this tomorrow! Whenever I make flour tortillas, they come out in crazy shapes, but its all good. Tomorrow's tortillas will be bacon fat ones, cause that's what I have. So shrimpy tacos wrapped in a floury bacon blanket it is!
Its the dancing that keeps me here LOL.. Gonna prolly try this one tonite. Thanks Brian!
Bri! i had your focaccia for breakfast, then i had your shrimp tacos for dinner and can i just say that the shrimp tacos were the most tastey holy thing on the face of the earth, and the focaccia was soo crunchy but soft and salty and olive oily! 😋
Looks good.
Looks awesome, too bad I'm allergic to Shrimp or else this would be on my to do list... Gotta say that I love your video's Bri, so glad I found this channel.
As a Mexican I must say that these tacos look absolutely amazing 😻… I only would mix the dressing with chipotle peppers only 😅 , a lot easier .
Yes! Smoky chipotles from a can .
Made the tortillas with sunflower oil instead lard and added 50gr. yogurt and 130gr. watter= 180gr liquid and thay turned great !
The lack of accessories...or accoutrement...on the counters is so satisfying for some reason. You're a great cook too.
I subscribed because of the Chicago pizza, but now, living in California, I am surrounded by fish tacos...you are fun and concise in your teaching...thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Another excellent recipe
Thanks very much!
Love the salad nibble 🤣
Man, that was really good and pretty reproducible at home. I replaced Thai sauce with Worcestershire and it seemed to taste even better (but looked not so fancy). And all that lime-cilantro combination in salad was really good and gave that nice hint of asian flavor
LOL at quick Dance Moves after tasting Bang Bang sauce.....needed a laugh this AM...thanks Bri!
Of course I’ll try them.
Cake donuts and raisin bread OMG! The French toast was killer with the raisin bread!
Good luck!
Great tortillas and better tacos! Felicidades.
Thanks Miguel!
Solid catch at the end of the eating montage 👌
Edited out attempts 1 and 2 where it hit my teeth haha
Thanks Bri.
I'm ready for this@!!!!!!!!
Awesome Seal catch at the end!👐🏿🤗
But where is the beef, ops, I meant Lime.
Gotta have some lime & cilantro on a taco!!!
I may not be deep frying shrimps tonight but I sure will be making that spicy mayo and put it on everything. Thanks Bri! 👍
Thanks for watching!
those look so bomb
My new favorite chef!
Welcome Michael. Glad you found the channel.
Thanks! you freekin' ROCK!
haha thanks Connie.
Great channel!
Hey Brian, love your channel. Good to see a Chicago guy out there making pro-level content. This recipe spoke to me as I spent a lot of winters in Florida as a kid (lived there for a little while too) and fried shrimp is something Florida does right that Chicago does poorly. Hard to find a good fried shrimp anything in these parts (hint, Chicago, breading shouldn’t make up 50% of the volume and deveining is not optional). Oddly enough, the best non-eleventy billion dollar fried shrimp in Chicago is at a taco stand in Northfield (Taco Nano) - perfectly fried shrimp, Serrano crema, watermelon radish and watercress for $4 works for me. Best of luck growing the channel!
Thanks Brian! Cool name
!!!! deep frying that doesn't make me very afraid!!!! i am definitely trying this recipe -- i've made flour tortillas before, but these look infinitely better... lol who could have guessed swapping out vegetable oil to pork fat would improve stuff :)
thank you so much for the video, these look amazing!
Thanks very much for watching let me know how this recipe works for you!
Fried shrimp WITh GF options? NICE. That extra effort is much appreciated.
Thanks Michael. And thanks for being here weekly.
@@BrianLagerstrom Happy to be here!
MMMM.....Shrimp tacos are my fav. Do grouper next...we do that right here in Florida ;)
Florida grouper is very 🔥
great recipe my guy
Thanks Harris.
Hey Zach from Florida here, we have the best freshest seafood in the whole US. The food here is incredible and only getting better.
I know, I was joking. I’ve had some great food in Florida. Especially in metro Orlando.
Thanks for watching Zach. Btw
The shrimp catch at the end what a freakin baller
Just giving a lilttle love back to someone who fills my life with food love
I’m pulling the trigger on this this weekend. I was glad to see it doesn’t require a ton of frying oil though I am still going to render a huge batch of lard this weekend just because.
Good luck Daniel, let me know how it goes.
idk much about florida but it makes perfect sense to me that they would have good seafood
gotta say, damn good, and quite easy. i would definitely recommend using clean and shelled shrimp to make it extremely easy. and yes you are right, adding hot sauce to Mayo makes everything taste great
Deep frying at home sure is a pain. I did it for the first time two days ago. I deep fried shrimp calabash style. The shrimp were very good! But it is a mess. Thank you for showing us how to do a shallow fry. Those tacos look delicious!
Hahahah I thought the title was Friendship Tacos and I was so happy but this works too !
Gota love da SHRIMPS!!! 😉
