#blacktiekitchen #ketopizza - Jak na to + styl
Having been entrusted by Dennis to test this recipe before its release, I can say that it is THE BEST keto crust I've eaten.
Im curious to see how it changes!
@@BlackTieKitchen Also, I baked mine on a baking steel (with parchment under the pie, which I remove a few minutes before pulling the 'za out of the oven. That gives it a bit more crisp). It turned out great and I imagine the results would be similar on a pizza stone. Just make sure you preheat your oven about 20 minutes beyond the time it tells you that it's preheated. And I rolled mine out thinner than yours and got two very satisfying pizzas.
Lastly, if a person likes cold pizza (I do), the crust is WONDERFUL eaten from the fridge.
Haha Steve isnt snarky. And if he is, I know he means it in jest 😂
@@paulaoyedele2081 Unfortunately, when I edited my comment for the sake of clarification, the heart Dennis gave me went away. Now I feel unloved. 😉
Haha Wes is probably thinking "again? Ugh'
Content like this is why CZcams needs a Love button. The amazing recipe is just a bonus.
Thanks, that means a lot ☺️
"...because, if I don't satisfy these cravings...well...bad things happen" -- Yep, I'm with you on that one! LOL!
Happens eeeeeeeverytime 😂
Lol just broke it for days😅
Ok, just made this for dinner tonight for the first time. You sir, are a genius!
Before keto, I used to make a sourdough crust, (yes, real sourdough leavened for 24 hours) that was the best pizza anyone I knew had ever eaten. Went keto on May 1st of this year and had to give it up. Broke my heart, as I’m probably as much in love with good pizza as you are. If my old recipe was a 10, this is definitely an 8 or 9, and I know it will improve as I get more used to working with it.
I pre-baked this one for 6 minutes before adding my toppings and finishing it off on a pizza stone, as I hate soggy crusts. It turned out very well, but I think I would increase my pre- bake to 8-10 minutes. Anyway, even if it never got better than what we enjoyed tonight, this is a game changer in our house (as is your pasta too).
Thank you Dennis for all your hard work and giving us all a few giggles along the way. Bless you my friend!
Thanks Steve! Here's to version 3.0 at some point!
My crust on the bottom was crunch but soggy under the toppings. I'll try to pre bake! thanks for the tip!
When you did the pre-bake, did you do it at 450? Can you comment on your precise method for how you then finished it?
I really enjoy your content and I’m so surprised and confused why you don’t have more subscribers! You’re in a niche all by yourself, nobody can touch what you do, I’m serious, it’s something I’ve seen others say on here, but, I think one day you will explode, because you are a rockstar when it comes to CZcams! Please keep it up, it’s your humor, awesome recipes and theatrical content that makes your channel like none other! 👍🏻💙😃
Thanks, I appreciate it! Just trying to make good food in a somewhat entertaining fashion!
Dang, I would watch his videos if I could comprehend what the fake British accent speaker is saying.
Mute button? 🤷♂️
@@BlackTieKitchen seriously, the accent is really bad. Can't make out half of what you're saying.
@@laurellovelace9294 I can understand.
As usual a life saver ...now I can confidently pass that mega box 📦 of Kirkland pizzas 🍕 at Costco without people looking at me as I have an argument with myself in front of the freezer door
There are aisles I avoid at costco for this very reason 😂😂
Yes we are readable aren't we. Ya I'm a terrible lier. But dramatic. It runs in the family. My mom tells a story of my great grandpa who married a straight laced Presbyterian woman. She says the kids could always tell how much he was stretching his stories by how fast her knitting needles were going.
This was the most insane video I saw
Outstanding coreografie and editing
Thanks Vito!
It's funny that I saw your name and thought 'nah, cant be' but it IS you! The quest for a good low-carb and keto friendly pizza, is a long one :'(
This video isn't just a pizza recipe. It's art..
😂😂😂
Dude, everything you do is Sooooo damn amazing. The quality of your videos is unmatched. You deserve so much more from this community. Absolutely top notch Dennis.
Thanks!
You’re videos are getting more and more entertaining! Appreciate the time you’re putting into producing this quality content. 👏🏽
Thanks! Time... Oh man... So much time lol
Love this especially eating the reg. Pizza!
I have now cooked this twice, following your recipe exactly with the addition of pepperoni and jalapeño peppers. I divided the dough in two, storing the second piece in a plastic bag in the fridge for three days.The first bake was on an antique Welsh cast iron griddle and the second was on a pizza stone three days later. Both came out perfectly with no change in the consistency and workability of the three day old dough. A half of each pizza was plenty to fill me up, so four meals out of this recipe! Thank you Dennis, this recipe is indeed the nearest to a 'propper' pizza I'm going to get on a Keto diet although I am looking forward to using my sourdough base in my Ooni oven next summer!
Sourdough base would work great!
i was shocked how i could only eat 2 slices. the huge fiber content really fills you up, and i'm a greedy pizza eater.
Ppp pppppp
TOP NOTCH! Thanks for all the hard work Dude.
Thanks for watching ☺️
Damn, this channel deserves way more subs than it have
You inspire me and make me laugh with every video. You are my keto hero ! ;)
Thanks Brittany, that means a lot ☺️
Made this pizza today - it is amazing! Thanks so much for creating it.
I am laughing uncontrollably. We’ve all been there…trying hard, craving pizza, giving in to temptation, and starting over. I love everything about your video! I’ve subscribed for sure!
Thanks!
I do love your videos, great productions and Love the humor!
Much thanks!
I absolutely love your videos! You are my low carb Alton Brown, only you're better! Keeping me on plan and giving me hope. Thank you so much for all the work you put into these videos.
Thanks Annie! 😄
Wow!! can't wait to make this recipe, great video!! as always!!
Thanks! It's a really good recipe 👌
Tried your crust yesterday. The BEST! As mentioned before, is even great cold from the fridge. Thank you for the leg work. Love your videos. 😊
Thanks Robin!
Looks delicious Dennis. Can't wait to try it
I cant wait either!
The editing on your videos is absolutely incredible
I feel like I should be paying to watch your videos lol
Haha thanks! Luckily I have a few patrons that help offset the cost of the craziness 😅
I love your videos!! Thank you soooo much for figuring out the perfect formula for a low-carb pizza crust! I cannot wait to try it out! 😋
NP! It wont be perfect, but it's a step in the right direction
Fantastic video, thanks for the huge effort you put into making it!
*I can’t wait to try this delicious recipe* 🍕
It's good!
Dennis delivers, again!!
I can’t wait to use this new crusty canvas for my kitchen pizzeria!
🍕 🍕 🍕
Pizza Pizza!
Yes!!! I tried it and it is indeed perfect! I actually made the dough in a bread maker and it turned out fine! I finally had pizza! And not just an “ok for low carb” pizza, but a delicious pizza! Thank you, thank you, thank you for this recipe!
Awesome Annie! Did you use a different yeast or do anything different in the bread maker?
@@BlackTieKitchen Well, I actually didn’t have to do the step where you prepared the yeast/sugar/water mixture, since the bread maker has a separate compartment where you add the yeast with the water and it combines with the rest of the ingredients at a later stage, so all I had to do was measure and add the ingredients into the bread maker. It took about an hour for the program to end and the dough was perfect! I used all of the ingredients as stated in your recipe, I didn’t omit any :-) Next project: your noodles!
Thank you for the recipe! i love this channel
Thanks! ☺️
I think you did it...I am satisfied with this pizza and your pasta! I am of Italian heritage...and can finally rest. Thank you, yours is the very best channel for good eats on keto 😘
Thanks! Although these recipes are really good - the quest will continue! 😄
Where was this video yesterday when my husband declared yet another low carb pizza crust unacceptable. We have the ingredients and I have this week off perhaps I'll make this recipe and make frozen pizzas! Super excited. Love your imagination with your videos, I get excited when I see one release.
Im stoked to find out what you think! It really is 👌
Hey Robyn, neighbor here in Minnesota, did you try this? I am thinking of making myself frozen pizzas. Would I shape the dough and freeze it? Or bake the crust then freeze it? It would be nice to be able to pull one out when the guys here are eating dominoes
I shape the dough before freezing it. You could potentially parbake it before freezing, but havent tried it
@@BlackTieKitchen thanks for replying, I will be doing that then. But Since today is May the fourth, I need to search for a good waffle recipe for my Death Star waffle maker!
May the 4th be with you!
Another great video! I really need to try this one out! Your videos always make me laugh. I love your style, humor and the obvious work you
put into them. 👏
Merci ☺️
Wow this is amazing! Thank you so much! Subbed to you straight away!
This might be the best keto crust I’ve seen. Need to make this recipe now to taste !
You have to let me know what you think. Ive been so excited to share it and see what everyone thinks!
The quality of your content is superb! I'm sure your going to get many subscribers in the future
Thanks! Just trying to make good content and great food! 😄
Man, I love your videos lol. I didn't know I wasn't subscribed until today. So I am a new subscriber, however, I've been watching your videos for a while. Thanks for what you do.
Thanks for watching and (now) subscribing!
Bless you, Dennis! Your content is so entertaining! Thank you!
Thanks Kathleen!
I’m dead with the title 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Haha thanks 😄
I can’t wait to try this recipe! The biggest downside I’ve found to eating keto is lack of ingredient availability in regular grocery stores and the higher prices sometimes stops people from eating healthier. With all the new ideas out there, I really think there should be Keto grocery stores.
It's getting easier and easier. Finding erythitrol used to be insanely difficult... Now there are tons of options!
Lupin flour especially I found crazy expensive. Once lockdown ends again here I'm going to see if they have it at our local Bulk Barn because the price I paid at the grocery store was criminal.
Amazon!
Yeah, Amazon will likely be your best bet. Im already seeing more brands than there were two months ago! I cant even imagine how expensive it would be in the local grocery store 😱
@@BlackTieKitchen I checked Amazon and it was around the same as the grocery... But I'm in Canada so our Amazon isn't as well stocked as in the US.
You are a true keto chef! The creativity behind your videos is above anything I've ever enjoyed watching. Thanks for the recipes and the good laugh I have every time I watch. All around genius! Please keep them coming.
Thanks Cara!
Gonna have to try this one!!!
Looks great. I used to get a hot & ready and wrap each piece in cling wrap and put it in the freezer
Those were the days - i used to eat the entire thing 😄
Love your videos! Thank you!
Thanks Charlie!
Burp! Love your videos. They are informative and entertaining. Thanks, Dennis.
Dennis this is by far the BEST KETO PIZZA DOUGH EVER!!!! This is my new go to recipe from now on. No more searching for a good dough
I'm so happy I came across your channel! Your videos are so entertaining! Please keep up the great recipes. Your great!👍
Trying! Theyre just getting more and more difficult 😂
@@BlackTieKitchen but it's so worth it!
DUDE!!!! You hit it outta the park!! This is BY FAR the best "diet" pizza crust I've ever tasted! It's a keeper for sure. Not too difficult to make either. Dough in the trunk (also in Florida) worked great. The texture, the flavor, the chew - all on point. Next time, I'll bake it on the pizza stone to see if I can get it a tad more crisp. But EVERYONE should try this. Just buy all the stuff - you'll use it up because you won't be able to stop making this amazing pizza crust!
You can get a bit more crisp if you parbake it for 2-4 minutes. A stone should work and apparently a steel works better! Here's to working on 3.0!
The only person who can intrigue, entertain and cook a mean keto 'za at the same time. Props to you, man! :)
Thanks!
Thank you!! I am a big pizza fun, but I have to avoid food with carbs. I have tried a lot of low carb pizza recipes, but none of them got close to real pizza. I cant wait to test this recipe. I think it is amazing how much work you put in finding the perfect recipe, rather than making recipes that are already on the internet. Also your content quality is very high, so I imagine it takes a lot of time to research/test and film/produce. Respect for that! I wish you get to 1 mil subs!
Thanks! Yes, it's a lot of work! I actually did a 'behind the scenes' commentary for this video and recipe, if it's something youre interested in: czcams.com/video/EndmwAytVzo/video.html
Why have I not seen this channel before! Hilarious. Love it.
Now you have! Glad you've discovered it 😄
Sadly I have been a very unfortunate soul because I never knew this channel existed. I am so happy I decided to spend a second watching this video when it popped up on my feed. Subscribed and I look forward to more videos. This looks like a great recipe and you are highly entertaining. Thank you.
Forgot to ask… I missed the part where you said something about Using a roller. Can you or should you do it by hand like you did in the video? Also could you use a sugar alternative instead (allulos, lakanto monk fruit blend..extra.) of regular sugar for the yeast? Thank you!
You can use a roller but you will lose some of the air pockets created by the yeast. Unfortunately, you cant use allulose or erythitrol as the yeast wont consume them (erythitrol is actually a byproduct of fermentation!). If youre absolutely opposed to using sugar, I believe that inulin will also feed yeast.
And im glad you clicked on the video! Welcome 😄
Dennis. This crust is fantastic. Just tried it today, and it was great. You have the best videos man. Love your channel.
Thanks!!
Awesome video! Feels very food wishes inspired. I am definitely going to try this dough. Looks great!
Thanks!
Def got to try this recipie, been useing low carb tortilla as a pizza crust to satisfy that pizza craveing. (btw that pasta recipe from your last video works PERFECT as lasagana noodles)
Perfect, now I know that I can start with those noodles! And this crust will blow a tortilla pizza out of the water 😂
The algorithm has blessed me this day. Subbed.
I guess it works! 😂
love these recipes! thank you!
Thanks for watching!
We are not on Keto but we do enjoy healthy flat breads. I tried your recipe and used it as a dipping flat bread for homemade red pepper / tomato soup. I put everything bagel spices on it, delicious! My husband loved it, he does not care about healthy he just wants his food to taste good. Excellent recipe, thank you for sharing.
I feel you so hard on the pizza cravings, they're the worst 😭😭😭
Edit: when you read "can I replace the wheat gluten" I felt you speaking directly to me lmao
I was 😂😂😂
@@BlackTieKitchen thank you for considering my gut issues when making your videos, then ignoring them in the recipe lol
I do my best 😂
Same :(
Good work 💯💯
Thanks! 😄
I just made it. it was my 4th attempt to make keto pizza and it is my last stop seeking for one. :) it was pure poetry. People who tasted it, couldn't tell it was a Keto pizza. And, it was sooo fulfilling. Dennis is right saying no one can eat an entire pizza all at once. :) Thank you for all your effort to conclude to this pizza recipe Dennis :)
My brother- who by no-means; ever ventured into the kitchen to COOK; re-heating doesn't count; actually made the pizza crust and it turned out GREAT! I am totally blown away how well he did! It was the best tasting keto pizza crust- way better than the frozen brands he had tested and the one Keto-restaurants in the city Thanks Dennis- SUBSCRIBED!
Also loved how you had the 'evil' pizza box and your nemesis lurking in the background; this was the first video I watched by you. My brother was so excited to try this, he sent me the link to check it out. I'm glad he did. Plus that pizza is filling... wowzers. YUM and thank you.
Awesome! Im glad you guys enjoyed it and hopefully your brother is inspired to cook!
You are so ridiculously talented in so many ways it is amazing you don’t have millions of subs. Thank you
Aww thanks! ☺️
So I have made this recipe four times in two months. It is THE BEST keto pizza crust I have ever tasted, and is a total hit with all of my family and friends too. I give the texture, smell, and taste a 10/10! I seriously cannot thank you enough for all of the time, effort and hard work (not to mention the expense of trial and error) that you’ve put into this. I have been doing keto for 4 years now and have missed pizza so much. I’ve tried so many recipes that claimed to be the best, and it always ended in a soggy mess, terrible texture and my disappointment. That was until I found yours! Amazing! P.S. I’m making your cauliflower chicken fried “rice” next! ❤️
Thanks! Just make sure not to eat TOO much of the pizza 😄
@@BlackTieKitchen Haha! Oops…too late for that. 😆
😂😂😂
@@BlackTieKitchen Question for you…if I omitted the yeast and sugar, could I combine the remaining ingredients to make a pie crust?
You can try, but I dont think it will work well in it's current state. It would need a good amount of butter and folding - in the hopes that it creates those sort of flaky layers. But definitely needs butter
Wanted to say thank you for this and other videos. Appreciate the information and humor.
Youre welcome 🙂 and thanks for watching!
Thanks for making this video
Damn, looks amazing! Been looking forward to this video for sure. Excuse me while I go pull my food processor out.
Haha the food processor is the most difficult part! PITA to clean 😂
I just made this and the ratios are wonderful. I know you said there is no substitute for lupin flour, but for fun I used psyllium husk flour. Used regular olive oil and cooked in a large cast iron. Beautiful flaking, crispy crust, and by golly no evil pizza for me from now on. Thank you for making it a black tie day! I'll try lupin next time!
Glad that worked Anna! Did you parbake it at all?
@@BlackTieKitchen nope. But I put the left overs into the fridge and made a second pie a day later. It worked wonderfully! Then I made it again as naan with mint and garlic....convinced my family it was normal naan. You should win an award for these studies! Thank you!
Awesome! Im glad you were able to convince everyone 😂
I've made this crust three times now, absolutely awesome.
It's almost too good lol
@@BlackTieKitchen The Holy Trinity!
Hey, I've been watching your channel for a while now but never got around to trying any of your recipes until today. And let me tell you, your Keto pizza crust is off the charts! It had a solid texture and, most importantly, no playdoh taste. OMG, it was amazing!

Thanks Wanda!
I don't think I have ever seen a better CZcams video in my entire life. It made me laugh and want pizza all at the same time.
😄😄 thanks
I made the pizza crust again, this time I used right after the rising, (I used it cold from the fridge before, mistake, as it bounces back to itself), also I made sure the stone was properly pre-heated. It worked even better. the texture was spot on perfection. I've watched this video many times. It belongs in a CZcams hall of fame 🙂
yay! Glad it worked even better!
Hey, I am here from watching you on Steve's channel, Serious Keto. You two were so funny on his video! I subscribed!
Thanks Julie! Glad to have you here 😀
I guess I know what I will be making today.
Yesssssss!
Wow! Looks really good. Must try
Both the video and the pizza are exceptionally well produced. Ever since I started keto and have abstained from pizza, I've been waking up in the middle of the night drenched in sweat. This has fixed me. Thanks.
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it!
That looks delicious! Now that Lupin flour is in my pantry, this will be on tomorrow's dinner menu & I'm glad to have other uses for it. I would never have thought of using gelatin, clever! One additional question...can the crust be par-baked? I like my pizza crust more well-done than most (I'll play with temp & time (and my pizza stone) to suit my practically burnt crust preference). Thanks Dennis! Awesome as usual :-P
I dont see why you couldnt parbake it. The gelatin came as a random 'stroke of genius' as I was crying over a super browned crust that was super dry
Get the pizza stone. You will not regret it. I own several baking stone dishes. Best thing ever. They are like cast iron skillets. Don't wash in soap. Hot water and a sponge scrubber does the best job of cleaning.
All you had to do was equate it with a cast iron skillet. Pizza stone rabbit hole... Here i come!
@@BlackTieKitchen In the old days, I preheated my pizza stone for a half hour, with the oven turned up past all of the numbers, as high as it would go.
Back then, I had my large wooden peel (paddle) sprinkled with cornmeal, and laid the dough on that before adding the toppings. I occasionally shook the peel, just to make sure that the dough could still move around on the cornmeal. I slid the pizza directly onto the hot pizza stone and it usually was done in about four minutes. It was the best pizza crust I ever had.
I made your recipe with my pizza stone, but with the oven at only 450 degrees, per your recipe, and it turned out super-crispy, exactly how I love it! Bravo!!
Now I wish someone would adapt the recipe to make good hamburger buns, and maybe some good sandwich bread.
We'll get to the good buns - it's an iterative process! And what we learn in making those, will likely feed back to a better pizza crust. Win win win all around 😄
@@BlackTieKitchen Thank you.
Yesterday, I tried using your pizza dough recipe to make hamburger buns. It worked out fairly well but needs improvement.
I only used 1 tsp of sugar, for the yeast, instead of 2.5 tsp, and used 1 tsp of active dry yeast, instead of 3/8 tsp. I added the yeast when the (distilled) water, with the sugar already dissolved in it, was down to 115 F and then placed the 4x4-inch drinking glass, which contained the water, sugar, and yeast, in a bowl of 112-degree water (and covered the top with a folded half-sheet of paper towel), to stabilize its falling temperature. After about 15 minutes, the glass was overflowing with yeast "foam".
Instead of letting the dough rise in an oiled bowl, I rolled it with my olive-oiled hands and cut it into six hockey-puck-sized pieces, which I smoothed and rounded somewhat with my hands and then placed on parchment paper, on a baking sheet.
It was not as warm as 80 degrees F, both inside and outside of my house (69 inside and maybe 75 outside; unusually cool for an August afternoon), so I put the baking sheet in a black trash bag and placed it on a chair, in the sun, out on the patio, for the dough to rise. It worked!
I couldn't wait more than 90 minutes and by then, the 2.5 to 3-inch diameter "pucks" were about five inches in diameter, and between 3/4 and 1 1/4 inches tall. I then ordered a hamburger bun baking sheet, www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08TQB8GNV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (Bun diameter of 3.6 inches is too small, maybe? But seems about right, to me.), to mitigate the "bun shape and size" problem. But in this case, I just gently pushed the sides of each bun's dough inward, with my fingers, a little, to make them about four inches in diameter. The risen dough was extremely soft and airy-feeling and the shapes were very fragile.
I baked them at 350 degrees F, until the tops started to brown, which took maybe 20 minutes, possibly longer.
I had already eaten but later cut one in half, like a hamburger bun would be. The first thing I noticed was that, on the inside, it looked almost exactly like a bun should look. I tore off a very small piece, from one edge, and it "felt right", when chewing it. It did taste somewhat too bitter. On the next try I hope to remember to add some zero-carb natural sweetener, to try to mask the bitterness. Or maybe I could cut back on the Lupin flour. No idea.
It was getting late and I had already eaten so I didn't feel like grilling a hamburger. So I just toasted the two bun halves in my toaster, until slightly (or more) browned, and then buttered each half with 1/2 ounce of Kerrygold butter, then cut them each in half. The outer crust was nicely firm and chewy. They were very good, with the butter partially or maybe mostly successfully masking the bitterness. They were good-enough that I kept wanting more, and finished them.
The hamburger baking sheet should arrive tomorrow and then I will probably try again, but with some additional sweetener. (Or, ha ha, maybe I could just put the bands for wide-mouth Mason jar lids, or something similar, around each dough puck, to stop them from getting too wide and thin, and to make the sides of the bottom halves of the buns more vertical.)
I would also like to try to make them slightly less dense. Unfortunately, I am an engineer and not a chef.
Thank you, so very much, for your superb low-carb pizza crust recipe! I was and am a pizza connoisseur and am extremely happy to finally be able to have good pizza, again, while on the ketogenic diet! I will eagerly await any adaptations you might make, to make a recipe that works better for hamburger buns (and maybe also for loaves of actual bread)!
@@BlackTieKitchen Update!
Thanks to you, I just ate a Hamburger and French Fries, for the first time in three months! And it was REALLY GOOD!!
I used one of the buns that I made yesterday, using your pizza crust recipe (except very-slightly modified, per my last comment), and your Keto French Fries recipe, which is at czcams.com/video/NTZ0WcFkUeA/video.html ! (By the way, I noticed that my Morton-brand Kosher salt had an anti-caking agent in it, so I used Real Salt, www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00M0S7F8K/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 .)
Anyway, it turned out that when the slightly-toasted bun had a grilled hamburger on it, and some raw onion and some Kensington mayo, the bitterness that I had mentioned yesterday was basically not noticeable! It was freaking DELICIOUS! And ALSO having the French Fries WITH the burger, along with the extremely-tasty G. Hughes Sugar-Free Ketchup ( www.walmart.com/ip/G-Hughes-Sugar-Free-Ketchup-13-oz/540060996 ), it was a profoundly-enjoyable meal!
There is definitely still room for improvement, when using your wonderful pizza dough recipe to make hamburger buns. But it now seems like it will be easier to accomplish than I had first thought. Reducing the bitterness, slightly, and making them a little fluffier and less dense, and using a hamburger baking pan to get the shape right, should make the buns even better; almost perfect. Maybe a less-grainy or smoother outside surface would be a nice-to-have, too, if you wanted them to look like store-bought hamburger buns.
Here is some of what I did, to make this meal and get everything to finish cooking at the same time:
While my propane grill was pre-heating, I mixed the dough for the French Fries, put some naturally-refined (i.e. no coconut flavor) coconut oil in my 8-inch non-stick skillet and preheated it (but at 33% instead of 40% of max heat, in case I was outside grilling for too long), and cut the dough into fries, using the crinkle-cut tool for which you had provided a link. (I do have duck fat, beef tallow, and pork lard, from FatWorks, on hand, but they were relatively expensive so this time I decided to use a larger-than-usual amount of coconut oil, in order to make it deeper than the height of the fries.)
JUST before I took the hamburger out to the grill, I put the French Fries into the hot oil, all at once, having slid a burger-flipper under all of them. I came back inside a couple of times, to cut the bun, and to cut some onion, and to look at the fries. I also toasted the bun, slightly, out on the grill. By the time the burger was a perfect medium doneness, the fries were just getting slightly golden brown. I have almost always overcooked the fries, before, so this time I removed them from the oil immediately and they were almost perfect.
The great thing is, I still have four more of those hamburger buns left! I might need another hamburger and fries, before this evening is over! (Now I just need to find a good milkshake. Either chocolate or strawberry would do.)
Thanks again, for your superb recipes!
------
Here is what this meal did to my blood sugar, which automatically gets measured every fifteen minutes:
I have been wearing a Continuous Glucose Monitor, since April 3, 2021, which measures and records my blood glucose level every fifteen minutes, and also whenever else I want to see the level. It has proven to be extremely valuable in my efforts to follow a keto diet and keep my blood sugar as low as possible. The sensors that stick to the back of my upper arm cost $38, every two weeks. They are the Abbott "Freestyle Libre" type. Anyway, I thought it would be helpful for others if I provided the actual, real-life blood glucose response that I had, from this Hamburger and Fries meal, using your dough recipes for the burger bun and the fries.
This was my first food of the day, which I started eating at 4:20 pm. The effect on my blood sugar was fairly minor, almost lost among the noise, and is actually difficult to attribute to this meal, alone.
To give you an idea of how my blood glucose varies, even without any food or drink: This morning, at around the time I was waking up, over about 2 1/2 hours, my blood glucose level went from 76 to 100 (in mg/dL), without any food or drink involved at all. After that, it gradually went back down to 76. Then, between 2:40 pm and 4:00 pm, it suddenly went from 76 to 94 (i.e. up by 18), for no apparent reason, and then went down to 89 by 4:23 pm (about when I started eating the burger and fries) and down further, to 85, by 4:41 pm. After that, it very-gradually went up to 99 at 6:21 pm (two hours after I had started eating), and got to 100 at 6:41, and was still at 100 at 6:57. So I suppose we could say that the meal caused a rise from 85 to 99, or at least from 89 to 99. But the data doesn't make that very clear.
Having worn this continuous glucose monitoring device for four months, this looks like a non-result, to me. When I eat something with carbs, the effect is usually quite obvious, with a well-defined, sudden change of slope that usually starts about 45 minutes after I eat, and then a rapid climb, then a clear peak, then an obvious ramping back downward. This meal's effect was nothing like that and is barely noticeable in the graph of my glucose level versus time. And that's a big thumbs-up, for this meal.
Besides, even if it did cause a 10 or 15 point rise in my blood sugar level, that isn't much at all, for a meal. My level usually only went up by about 2 points per gram of carbs, so even a frozen pizza would usually shoot it up by 150 or more. Yes, I tested that, and many other foods, for the first month I had the monitoring device. It went over 350 quite a few times. But I learned what to not eat. And now my average glucose level is usually below 100, for each 24-hour period, and sometimes below 90! My A1C was 7.6% on April 3, 2021 and as of August 4, 2021 it is 5.7%.
That reminds me. I also stopped taking Simvastatin, for cholesterol, and now I feel 200% better and more energetic, and have started rebuilding the muscles it destroyed.
Important Public Service Announcement! If anyone is taking a STATIN type drug, for cholesterol, or knows anyone who is, it is URGENT for you to look at these warnings, and seriously consider STOPPING taking the statin medication:

I love the style of your videos, really well done sir!
Thanks!
This looks amazing!
It is!
Dennis... I just love the quality of your vids. I literally felt the distress while you were eating the traditional pizza haha :D Honestly you are an amazing cook but the more I watch you I am thinking you missed your destiny. You should have been a movie producer haha :D Much love and thanks for giggles and putting a smile on my face whenever I watch your vids!
Edit: Somebody jealous of your talent gave you a thumbs down! Shame! :P
Thanks Anna! For the person who gave a thumbs down... Theyre just jealous of the pizza 🤷♂️😂
@@BlackTieKitchen and that you are a real class act. Should be an entry in the next edition of the great little book called “How To Be A Gentleman” ! Hello from Canada🙂👍..and subscribed!
I'm late watching this but I'm on the floor laughing :-) pizza is my kryptonite too the struggle is real
it really is a struggle!
I can't wait to make this!!!💙
Have to let me know how it turns out!
Omg that looks BOMB! Thank you for this, and the amazing amount of thought that went into this hilarious episode xD
Thanks Vanessa! And yes, it IS 💣🤯
Really enjoying the cinematic content you produce. Especially your symbolic embodiment of that self-destructive impulse many of us cope with! Having had a painful experience with one of those wheat gluten keto bread loaves early in my journey, I'm probably not going to try the recipe. Fortunately, I like the meat based pizza crusts pretty well.
Was it painful in the health way or painful in that it sucked so bad?
@@BlackTieKitchen Painful in a GI reaction way. Never thought I had issues with gluten, but that was a wake-up call.
Ouch, that sucks :( On the bright side, you now know to avoid it rather than having it in little bits and not being aware of it
Damn this was soo good....it felt like watching a short movie!!
Thanks! ☺️
Made this yesterday for game day. Best keto pizza crust by far! I made your ice cream again which is absolutely amazing. My grandchildren loved it and was surprised when they found out it was keto. “This tastes just like ice cream!” Thanks for all you do!!!
Glad they enjoyed it!
For a smaller channel, you put a lot of effort in making recipes and doing small skits. I love the energy you put in for healthier food options for keto and those who just wanna eat better while providing as much entertainment as possible.
I try! One of the reasons my videos take longer now is the added story- and the recipes have to be GOOD. Ill aim to never put out a video with a recipe that is "meh" which means they take time to work through :/
@@BlackTieKitchen I love how your putting this effort in, and don’t give up on this idea. I’m sure you’ll get bigger as time goes on and be more appreciated for these tasty foods and sweet treats for keto, low carb, diabetics, healthier eating, and just a motivation for a lot of Americans and other people in countries as well. Being in the most obese state, it helps seeing these things being made and I’ll keep watching the ideas you make and will attempt these myself as the future goes.
Also, a few ideas to try is all.
-a keto/low carb cake
-fried chicken
-Maybe a few smoothie ideas if you need something quick for a video
-saltine crackers
-keto version of Pizza Hut cheese bread sticks (found one already but curious how u perfect it)
It’s just thoughts to throw out, your choice to do any of these. I’ll still be watching if you do them or not.
Please don’t give up and keep forth chef. From pizza, egg nog, your pasta noodles, ima be trying all of these when a chance comes by.
The thumbs down is from Mr. D 🤣
That son of a....
ha ha ha! Yes, of course!
🤭That basta... jerk.
4get the pizza! I love your productions....Oh I still want the pizza too. And watch out for Steve of Serious Keto, he's likely to start tweeking this Haha.
Haha thanks! And yes - I know he will (we already talked about it!). Part of putting these recipes out is to get others tweaking them so that, as a community, we end up with what we can call a pizza of our own. This pizza is great and better than anything Ive tried - but its not perfect. Lets make it perfect together 😄
@@BlackTieKitchen I had to laugh. I just got done eating my own home made pizza when I ran across your video. I used Simple Mills Pizza Dough mix. All whole good ingredients and it came out pretty darn good.
Ill have to see if I can find some at the store!
Your videos be popped up in my recommendations a few times and today I was shocked you don't have more subs! 😮 The production quality, the narration it top tier 👍
Thank you for the 30 iterations to this final recipe! You are so entertaining.
Thanks Mary!
OK I'm here because of Steve from Serious Keto! Glad he shared you with his followers.... well until he dispatches you LOL!! Only kidding (I hope) :)
Welcome!!! We'll have to see if he can ;-)
If Steve from Serious Keto recommends it, it is good...I will have to try it. Best crust I have found so far is ground chicken and parmesan cheese... I just wish my videos were or even could be so good.... My recipes are, though. So there is that, I guess. So many out there just make someone else's recipe in their own video and don't even credit the source... I even credit the source of my inspiration for ideas, like Steve and his rye bread idea I used in my recipe in my video. (We ate a lot of rye bread around here for a few weeks until I got it just right, I can tell you.) Keep on making the rest of us look bad, it's ok... Just refuse to ever compromise on the recipes. OH, a tip from Hi Falutin' Low Carb on almond flour... sift it, always sift it so no lumps.
Thanks! I never find that i have any lumps with almond flour, especially when using something like the food processor, but I may need to try it moving forward. And one of the reasons my videos are taking longer now is because the recipes *have* to be good =)
New to your channel and loving it...Also having amazing results on keto so far and can't wait to try this! Thank you
Let me know what you think when you give it a try!
I love your videos man, bravo
Thanks!
Hilarious ... thank you SeriousKeto to have pointed to him 😊!
Glad to have you over from Steve's channel!
Lmao, love the commentary!
Haha thanks
Just made your pizza crust and you are absolutely right. It fabultastic. Better then all the others. Thanx
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you soo much!! You made my day!! You are hilarious! I sent this to my 3 sons, who consider themselves pizza “connoisseur s”...the oldest being a ketophobic! Keep up your imaginative, funny videos! 😍😍😍
Thanks Jeanette!
