My favorite part was where "Title" explained what chicken shawarma is.
hahahaha
bro why people put quotes around words this is an infection in the youtube comments section
Your comment made ZERO sense until I hit that part of the video then I LMA completely Off
@@hypnaxtic Did you watch the video?
@@hypnaxtic I think it's to "highlight" the most important concept they trying to "say". lol
Title 👍
Can't believe it took this much scrolling to get to this comment !
@@phystromo4493you’re not the only one lol
I live in Japan and have very limited space so I try to have as few kitchen tools as possible. I always just use a rolling pin to flatten meat. Works perfectly.
My man out here hammering that meat for Paul. What a guy
Are we getting anymore 50 plates, 50 states?!? The suspense is killing me!
Alabama is coming out super soon! thanks for your patience
@@thatdudecancook ALABAMA WHITE SAUCE!!!!!!!
He’s having to re-think the fridge beating 😂
@@thatdudecancook Woooooooooooooooo!
The fridge beating was excellent!
I've Made This Chicken Shawarma Gyro Hybrid 4x now and it always gets devoured in a flash, I hope all of you enjoy it as much as me!! HAPPY COOKING!!
Thank you for sharing your genius with us.
I had already started pasta sauce for tonight’s dinner but making this tomorrow with a few tweaks.I’ve got two teens who are vegetarians so I’ll make sumac basmati rice for the protein swap out and pickled beets and turnips for more topping options. This def was a fridge beater for sure 😂
Greetings from the uk! Love your vids dude but one thing I noticed today.......cilantro and coriander?!? I thought you guys stateside call coriander cilantro?
Also that onion tip is awesome! Gonna try it tomorrow!
You didn't say Gyro correctly, I thought it was part of a joke but there wasn't a punchline at the end...
How long can I store the sauce please?
Would love to see a series of your recipe development process someday, gonna try this one soon.
Still killin it! I made these from your short and it was the best marinade I’ve ever made. Thanks Sonny! For Paul!
You mentioned using the microplane on garlic, ginger, and hard cheeses, but the one I always go back to is your technique for getting all of the zest perfectly off of a lemon with them. Awesome video as always, you've inspired us to try so many amazing new meals I'm always excited when a new one comes out
Agreed! I love lemon juice and now with a microplane I can use the zest to amp up lemonades or just add a bit of flare to almost any savoury dish! And if I baked I'd do that too! All with an ingredient that would otherwise be thrown away 🤷♂️
I use orange zest in my oatmeal. Let me tell you something!
He is copying recipes from other channels 😅
Don't for get for nutmeg as well!
@@demelkon
"a bit of flare"
dear me
Love this format - not too long, not too short. Can't wait to try this recipe, thanks Dude.
From now on i love your recipe, thank you for tutorials
That Shawarmgyro looks fantastic. Perfect char on the chicken... 🤤👍🏼
The zen music and transition to rock at the end of the vid was on point!…. Good job dudes
That looks phenomenal, I do like to use sumac also as one of the seasonings for the shawarma and slice onions
Looks delicious! I would probably add feta! Can't wait to make this!
yea! deflinitely love the microplane. I mostly use mine for nutmeg for french toast or egg nog or horchata ... Nutmeg 😍. I bought it to use as a zester which works great too for lemon curd so theres bits without it being ewwie
I'm SO HAPPY that when I was in the store Ross today, I found a legit Microplane brand zester/grater for $8.99!!!! I had been wanting one regardless, but your insistence in this video around 2:10 was really what motivated me to be on the lookout when I was out today. It paid off!!!!! 🤘🏻
I tried chicken shawarma the other day and I fell in love with it. One of my new favorite foods. Gonna make this for sure 🤤
I’ve been waiting for you to do chicken Shawarma for a long time!
This looks easy and awesome. Definitely trying it
Looks delish! The best shawarma I ever had was in Riyadh, served in a soft pita with garlic sauce (garlic aioli made with olive oil), stuffed with simple salted fries and Lebanese style long spear pickles, so simple yet amazing!
if it's not Rawabi al Iskaan , then I don't agree with u best one I had whilst living in Royadh
@@muhammedmujtabakhan ok bro no one cares if you agree lmaoo
@@hypnaxtic i'm dead 💀😂
I feel like the difference between good and bad shawarmas when it becomes as simple as the one you had (i've had these too all the time when I was in qatar) is the juicyness of the meat. The ones I used to enjoy were dripping with chicken fat vs the ones that were made with chicken breast. I haven't found shawarma joints that serve dark meat here in Phoenix, AZ because they all use chicken breast or trim the fat off the dark meat pieces.
We ordered gyro delivery and they have us a garlic aioli instead of tzaziki (sp?) Sauce. It was quite the shock.
Man, thank you for sharing. I can’t eat to try and share them!
that "Title" starting at 4:11 haha
There's no way I'm the only one appalled at the way Sonny says "Gyro"
Don't be a hero...... It's OK to not say YeerO!
It took me quite a while to get that he is referring to Gyro! And also referring to Tzatziki sauce by Rita sauce!!!
@@mehdisoozande8768No, he made a take on á Raita sauce.
@@jasonmanley7815 Actually Raita and Tzatziki are very similar, there are no big differences. But when you are pairing it with Greek Gyros, It is better to call it Tzatziki.
Somebody call the culinary police because he didn't pronounce gyro correctly. You would think that people have better things to do with their time than complain that the guy didn't correctly pronounce gyro about a video for delicious looking food.
Fun story: from 4:12 minutes on, there is a stray "Title" text in the video that was forgotten before export. And for a minute there, I thought that you actually had a black apron that just said "Title" on it. I found that pretty funny, and might actually make a T-Shirt like that for myself.
For tenderizing meat, if you don't have a mallet or heavy pot/pan, use a beer bottle.
My mom was a prep cook as Casey's back in the day, and she said they used beer bottles to pound chicken. The concave on the bottom of the bottle creates a vacuum when you strike the chicken. Its very effective
putting the onion slices in a strainer and running boiling water through it also works very well!
Marcus' best meal of the day, every day... 😊👍🌻
Title :), naw but this recipe looks amazing I'm going to try to make it tomorrow!
Title indeed
What a great recipe. Even on good bread it would make such a great sandwich.
You also use the microplane for citrus zesting, Sonny! That's how I learned the technique I now use for citrus!
Im excited to try this 1 out!
So just made this (chicken is marinading and the white sauce is done) with a few small modifications and mishaps. Turns out Turmeric sounds very similar in Estonian to what cumin is in English so I never bought that (oops), but hopefully shall be fine using some mustard seeds instead of it. Obviously didn't have cumin for the white sauce as well, so I made it a kind of a dill-green onion one rather than the cilantro one.
Tomorrow the rest of the family gets here and it's go-time, I can't wait! This looks so delicious and I just really wanna taste this with the family already. Thank you for yet another great recipe! Now the only part that can go wrong is my grilling and the assembly, but I think it'll be all good lol.
I can't believe you forgot to mention using the microplane for zesting lemons and limes!! 😱😱
That looked darn tasty! Thanks for posting.
Awesome vid and this recipe looks delicious cant wait to try it out . subscribed
I've been using the onion trick since you taught us
That looks SO delicious!
Dude, you live in Austin. It is always grilling season. We even grill on Christmas. I have company coming over this weekend and I will be making this. I loves me some shawarma!
Quick easy and creative. Thx
Biggest setting on a box grater. 😂 Love the commentary in all the videos.
Feel like I'm back on the Danforth in Toronto!!!
Cinnamon and allspice in that marinade would take it to a whole new level! Yogurt is a good idea!
Cardamom (green) works a treat, too!
Yummy!!!!! Going to try this.
I skip the grating of the cucumbers for the sauce and just add chopped cucumber along with the tomatoes, lettuce, onion, etc. Much easier and the sauce doesn't get watery. I too have been doing the shawarma- gyro hybrid for some time and love it!!
Excellent recipes... The rubber glove look though... Brought back disturbing memories of going through customs in Norway!!!
Shoutout to Paul, he is the best
Another thing that you did that helps mitigate the pungent onion flavour is to cut the onion pole to pole instead of across the equator. This way breaks fewer of the cells that release the strong flavour :)
Never thoight I'd be head banging to the New Wave Retro start of a cooking video.
Looks Delicious Sonny 🙏🏽
Yum..looks soo good!
Omg I'm crying over the cucumber juice in the sink. 😆 I would save it an put it in a smoothie. 😊
Looks great! I like to add onion juice to my shawarma marinade as well, great flavor and helps tenderize it in addition to the yogurt.
i hade to break it to you but the onion juice doesn't tenderize the chicken. its mostly the lactic acid in the yoghurt
@@cooljool1 I'm pretty sure the enzymes in the onion juice play a role in breaking the meat down but maybe not 🤷 it do taste good though!
I’ll be cooking this very soon
you had me at minus the french fries!! looks awesome, will try it
Made this from your short, amazing!
No time for trimming I love it
It’s a good dish, thanks for showing us
Absolutely delicious!! 💯
I don't recall if ThatDude has ever done a video on Toum, but that's the best sauce for shawarma to me. It's basically Lebonese garlic sauce. Kinda like mayo, but calling it mayo doesn't do it justice.
God I loved your pre-sponsor videos. Congratulations on your success! Best wishes, That Dude!❤
skip from 4:25 to 5:30 to avoid shilling.
Eat a weird backhanded comment. Guys gotta eat too
@@MasonBlue6 0/10 comment. Sponsors is how people are even able to deliver this content to you for FREE
@@andrewc2509 Can skip over this comment, its shilling^
4:15 >Title
Thank you Chef
This is perfect, the shawarma places here keep closing, thank you!
I was talking to my wife about dinner tonight and making tacos. Turns out I'm heading to the store for some Greek yogurt and pita bread instead lol. Made me hungry
ill even go for the cheesecloth or milk bag for draining the cucumber.
What a coincidence, last weekend I also made a shawarma-gyro hybrid, that was suitable to my stomach XD
Looks so great - I’m going to have to make it. Not much work either
This was bomb. I made tzatziki that I learned in Greece and baked my own pita bread. Only wish Id made more haha.
Looks nice sauce on the pita, less messy..
Looks great!
I'm making this ish TONIGHT
It is one of Za Best In Za West.
"I'm into the cosmos."
That's some quality ad lib in the ad read, Sonny.
I like a home made tzatziki, start with the good greek yogurt, add lemon juice, olive oil, cucumbers (minced, salted, squeezed), garlic and salt to taste. For a different option, toum would be good on it as well
best cook on youtube fr
Very nice recipe . Thank you so much 👌👌😊
Looks really good. Your in Texas now. Its always grilling season.
Very nice I am going to try it. ❤
I kneed this right now!
Instead of the crispy onions, put pickled turnips in there along with the tzatziki sauce! Absolutely delish!
The BEST. I'm Armenian & that's how we eat it
Tender chix moments🎶🙌🏼💓
Hey!
The seasoning on your recipe looks great. I might try it next time I make shwarma.
I hate to be that guy. But shwarma and gyro (pronounced like yirro) need to be cooked on a vertical rack.
It's critical for getting the flavor.
I got a shwarma stabby rack on Amazon and it works amazing.
I just put it on the grill with burners going on either side turning 90 degrees every 15 minutes or in the Weber kettle with charcoal all around it.
Keep up with the great videos!
This video is for people that are never going to buy a shwarma rack
@@nateb2715 It's still not a proper shawarma recipe. I'm Iraqi and no Arabs that make Shawarma add kashmiri chili peppers. It's basically grilled Tandoori Chicken.
Exactly. Real Shawarma is on a vertical or even a horizontal rotisserie. To be honest the spice mixture he's using isn't really a true shawarma spice mix. Not saying it won't taste good but it is what it is.
OMG! Looks so amazing! Does anyone know what brand flatbread he used? I've been trying to find that thick authentic pita for years.
Here's a hack I use to get my coals hot nice and fast. Use know if those bbq coal starters and start the coals like you normally would. Once some of the get going pull out the air compressor and air chuck and blast the coals with some high velocity air. Not only does this get them going fast it also sounds like a jet while you do it.
4:12 Great Title! 🤣
Marinate: yoghurt, oil, lemon juice, paprika, chilli powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, corriander, mix
That warmup montage music intro should have video of you wearing a bandana, punching various kitchen appliances.
4:12 😂 Title
Made this and grilled the chicken with a Kamado joe rotisserie and it’s a BANGER
Lol, love the default “title” text over your onion segment
Awesome!
When do we get a cookbook!?! ❤
Look good Sonny!
Don't forget.... a microplane is also great for nutmeg, cinnamon, fresh turmeric, and zesting citrus. I've also used it to mince carrot, onion/shallot, and a handful of other purposes.
My micro plane is indispensable to me! Thanks for the other things you mention, like carrot , shallot….I use it for parmigiana Reggiano too.
Yes, yes, and thrice yes.
Wow tasty 😋
