#food #cooking #funny
As an engineer, Alton's approach of science plus the art of cooking really appealed to me. Good Eats was one of my absolute favorite shows from the 90s.
Me too.
Did you watch the good eats he did a few years ago?
@@majordddd Every one of them.
I skip to the Part 4 "science section" of the home cook pro videos. You know the epicurious ones? Gives me the same vibes. I'm a biomedical engineer so the combination of biology + chemistry + other applied sciences make it interesting.
Freaking loved staying up late as a kid and catching reruns of that show on the food network.
a collab with Alton Brown is a must.
Hell yes
mate that would be so cool
Agreed
Absolutely
Do they call it Guga eats?
I grew up watching Alton Brown on Good Eats, made me realize from a young age that I had an interest in cooking and food science. Good Eats was like the Bill Nye the Science Guy of cooking, he not only explained the recipes but also their history and the science behind them.
That’s why I love Chef Jean-Pierre. I grew up watching Good Eats and Chef JP is the only KZhead chef who truly explains every aspect of cooking a dish.
@@Sniperboy5551 I actually just subbed to Chef Jean-Pierre recently, found a video he made on spaghetti carbonara.
@BasilDaChefcario You’ll love him, I promise!
Alton Brown has said his inspiration for Good Eats was Julia Child, meets Mr. Wizard, meets Monty Python. And I have to say, he nailed it. Also props to his wife for not just letting Alton complain about early 90s cooking shows, and pushing him to go to cooking school, ditch his job directing TV commercials and make a cooking show of his own.
Then he left her
@@plumber1874 About half of US marriages end in divorce. Alton & DeAnna were married over 20 years, and I haven't heard either one speak ill of each other. Nothing I'm aware of worth cancelling him over.
@@rhekman I didn't say cancel him you mentioned the sacrifices she made and she proved the saying the no good deed shall go unpunished
After watching this, I desperately want an Alton Guga collab since they're both so passionate about food. I think they would have great conversations.
I can see it happening.
I'm rewatching good eats rn!
it'd be funny if the guys are like "Guga... what's going on, what's happening, you said there's an experiment today, but these dishes looking mighty sus..." Guga : "And today's experiment, can the guys tell which one is a Guga steak and which one is a Good Eats steak, let's begin" Angel : Yo, Guga... why's there yogurt on my steak? Guga : "Don't question it, I just want your brutal, honest opinions, now its time to dig in..."
I met Alton at a book signing in Tampa many years ago. The place was flat out swamped with people and he stayed until he met every single fan! By the time we got close to my place in line, it was getting late. They kindly asked the remaining fans not to ask for any personalization in order to expedite the remaining autographs. I will admit that I couldn’t help myself so I asked Mr. Brown to write “Skirt Steak Rules!”, which he did with a big grin as he said “Skirt Steak DOES RULE”. Alton is the G.O.A.T.!
3:39 Does Guga know that's a Full Metal Jacket reference?
Oh no Guga kinda looks like private pile. haha. Guga more handsome though :)
Ha, came here to say this. Didn't seem like it 😂
I was looking for this comment. Yea that was a Robert Lee Urmee Full Metal Jacket reference.
without me, my grill is useless. Without my grill I am useless. 😂
@Philosjutsu I hope he doesn’t end up like Pvt. Pyle…
So glad you finally reviewed an Alton Brown video, he's one of the few people in the Cooking Industry I love to watch on a regular basis, because while not all of his videos are perfect, they're incredibly informative, and you learn so much from them, especially if you have a knack for cooking whatever food he's got going on. Not to mention, he's actually an incredibly nice guy, and really enjoys taking the time to properly teach people, and won't yell at you if you make a mistake, instead he'll just help you fix your mistake(s), and tell you what to do next time to improve on the/those mistake(s).
Alton Brown and Kenji Lopez-Alt are the reason i got into perfecting technique. Understanding the science behind the food and the reason things work out don't work and why we do them is what turned me into the foodie I am today. So glad to see you watching him and hope to see him watching you or even a collab in the future!
Chef Jean-Pierre for me. I enjoy the French technique… and the copious amounts of butter.
Yes, I shall remember your advice for the next time I'm cooking a Wagyu skirt steak....
if you can afford it XD
@@The_Unknown_Baron The sarcasm wasn't clear enough it seems 💀
I didn't know bots could cook
@@The_Unknown_Baron It's definitely worth saving up for once in a while. And not all wagyu is immediately 1000 dollar steak. A3 is still very good.
@user-pc5qj2ix2c It’s pretty hard to find proper Japanese wagyu here in the US. It’s not regulated, “wagyu” is basically a marketing term here. You have to order it from a reputable distributor and pay a ton for shipping.
Alton is my favorite, hell I watched him from food network, and even KZhead for his humor and his personality are my favorites, I love his style and he taught me a lot about cooking alongside Gordon Ramsay and my Filipino grandma
He's your favorite hell?
@@nalinshukla5413 I meant to put a comma after favorite to mean like, Hell I watched him from food network to KZhead since my young days as a curious teen wanting to cook
There was an old episode of Good Eats about cooking steak that my dad studied to perfect his technique. My dad is a very good home cook, but his steaks are incredible now. Alton Brown is a beloved name in our family.
Alton is the guy who got me into cooking! I watched Good Eats as a kid all the time when it was past my bedtime, he’s the best! I’d always fall asleep to Food Network. I’d get hungry and then get tired.
Alton was the "Harold McGee" of The Food Network, back in those days (90's). Still my favorite food TV personality. That was filmed back when he had hair. Back then, grills hadn't developed into the refined things they are now. You should get Alton on the Show.
Alton is the only cook I've ever seen in concert 😂
I wanted to go see him so bad but I couldn't get away. How was it?
Two of my favorite chefs! Great video and thank you both for inspiring people to cook ! Myself included, good eats taught me so much and now Guga is just awesome in the modern KZhead days ! Thanks , side note go vote 💙
The world would be better if we all had a friend like Guga. Your team and family are blessed!
That was very helpful thank you GaGa
I remember watching that show, he had such a great show we even went to see him when he had a live show. He’s very funny and a great story teller. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Love Alton! He the OG of cooking everything and the science behind it. Good Eats was a great series. Thanks for reviewing one of his videos!
Guga and Alton on the same video never expected this but great to for the younger folk to discover the greatness that is Alton Brown.
I see why you enjoy his videos he's pretty funny thx Guga
Gosh, I love Alton Brown. Such a classic video to review. Thx Guga
Love your videos GUGA
Oh yeah. Alton Brown!!! He's easily the smartest person in any kitchen. But he won't rub your face in it. His COVID home cooking series was fun.
I remembered watching his skirt steak technique as a child on Good Eats. It's been my go to method ever since.
'This is my grill'.... Loved the jarhead reference!
I’ve had this video of Alton’s saved for years. Love his videos. Glad to see you feel the same.
I dropped a Dalstrong knife on my foot a year ago. It went right through and stuck into the laminate floorboards beneath. Incredibly sharp, definitely recommend. Urgent care said it was a narrow and clean cut, barely any scar. Good stuff.
I love Alton Brown, and Guga! I'd love to see more "Guga Reviews".
I never buy a boxed brownie mix because of this guy! I use Alton's brownie recipe exclusively. There is nothing better! And the reason I love you Guga is that I have always done a dry brine on steaks! I've had chef friends fight me on this, but I stand my ground. I only buy good quality steaks, and they deserve the best treatment.
Alternatively, I'm not afraid to use cake mixes thanks to Alton Brown! 😂 But fr, Alton's just the person that needed to review Guga's methods just to run them through the scientific ringer.
The part about the grill is part of the rifleman's creed or the creed of the United States Marine Corps.
YES!!!! The Great and mighty Alton Brown together with one of my other most favorite cooks/chefs. This is awesome sir!!!
Hi chef😊, your recipe idea is interesting, the results of the dish also look delicious and appetizing 🤩 good luck
This video is a great reminder that Alton Brown is a professional and Guga is a guy with a grill and a funny accent.
Congrats guga 🎉
Alton Brown got me into cooking years and years ago. I loved his educational and fun approach to it… not just - do this and then this and then that.
I used to fall asleep to Food Network as a kid and Good Eats was always my favorite show. Alton Brown is a legend.
@@Sniperboy5551 I will watch something just because he is in it because of Good Eats.
3:40 I Wonder, if you noticed the implied movie quote there, Guga. 😁 And yes, I can totally see his humor you mentioned!
I love this guy because you dont need to be told hes an expert. Idk him. But tje way he talks and explains lets me know he is knowledgeable. He explains the science and everything. I really enjoyed his steak vid here and i want to find him on KZhead after this.
Love me some Guga!!! Alton Brown was the FIRST Food Network chefs that I watched ALL the time! He is unquestionably the O.G.!!
"if your cooking a wagu..." Your the only one cooking wagu guda. We poor out here and can't afford 100+ dollar a pound meat
I like your mention of best practice for the grill, high heat and low heat side. This was of course not necessarily the intent of Mr.Brown’s content, which was awesome! He showed a different approach but really appreciate your tips and coverage Guga!
This Good Eats clip was one of my first steak cooking lessons. I still like using this method for outside skirt, but I run a blower over the lump coals right before adding the meat to ensure the coals are white hot. Approximately 1.5 min on each side.
This video in particular is what influenced me to cook with charcoal as I was a young man! I wanted to recreate this technique so I went out and did it. And doing so sparked a life long enjoyment of cooking and grilling meats. Good Eats was a favorite show of mine as a kid and I have the utmost respect for him and his views on food.
i started dry brining my meat a while ago and it really enhances the flavor! I usually salt it between 3 to 5 hours before starting to cook, but even just 1 hour makes a huge difference
Good eats is a big reason I can cook a meal today and have continued on to channels like guga’s
i've been starting to appreciate the Tri-Tip its a great cut of beef, affordable, and very flavourful, and if you cook it sous vide... sooo tender
one of my favorite moments was when my wife bought me an advance copy of one of Alton's cook books, and arranged for me to meet him and get it signed, I loved meeting him, he's a very genuine person... he's also a lot shorter than you expect.
"I watch this guy all the time." I can say the same when I am watching you Guga. You are my inspiration and I made a compound Butter with your seasoning SPG turned out fantastic. I like this guy he has a sense of humor which is great. Say Guga- Can I buy your cooking book in my country? Or is it not for sale outside of the US?
Wwwhhhhhat!? Guga has his own as seen on tv stuff!? 😂😂 who would of thought I would see the day when I could get a Guga product from Walmart!? Amazing
There are sooo many reasons I love this video.
Wow I’ve been watching for years and I was shopping in Walmart yesterday and saw your items and then today I see the video with you showing them. Happy for you and wish you all the best. I’m down here in went Kendall by the way and if you ever want to come cook at the fire station I have one for you 😂
I have done this and it is now *my* favpirite way to cook steak. Works decently for other steaks too.
ABs first porterhouse video changed my steak game forever. I also use his thanksgiving Turkey technique every year.
Lol I never equate Alton with steak but I love the ending part where he jokes about putting it with some grilled veggies OR just stay there and eat it. Skirt steak is one of the more affordable (still) cuts that I enjoy buying because it works with everything.
Love the “Full Metal Jacket”quote that Guga thought Alton made up! “This is my gun, there are many like it but this one is mine”
Love grilled skirt with a board sauce - yum!
Guga & Alton Brown? My day is turning around now. My 2 favs
💙 ALTON! love this episode. Thank you
Lol, I'm doing laundry at the moment, and as I heard that sound I thought that our washing machine finished, until I realized you stopped talking cause of the melody 😂
I would love to see you and Alton Brown collaborate. Don't know if it's possible, but I think you'd have fun.
@Guga that's an adaptation from the Marine Corp's Riflemen's creed. This is my rifle, there are many like it but this is mine. If you watch the movie Full Metal Jacket, you'll see them reciting this creed, but it's way way older than that.
"My new cameraman S C H O O L S M E on hiw to cook.!!"
Please make a video on how you clean and take care of your grill grates. Thank you!
Good Eat and Iron Chef America with AB is why I love cooking
Since the day his Thanksgiving 🦃 episode aired, the wife & I have been cooking Alton’s bird recipe EVERY YEAR since (I think this year’ll be our 25th 👀). 🥳🙏 *I’d like to give props to good ol’ _Emeril_ for THEE BEST gravy on EARTH we’ve made in tandem WITH Alton’s turkey the past 25 years: He simply calls it “Giblet Gravy” and we more than triple the liquids & fats. May you all blow your family’s minds by making BOTH this year! 🙏🤟🤌👌 💥
As many have said, Alton Brown opened up the world of cooking for me. His way of explaining the technique and understanding what's happening during the cooking process just appealed to me and made me think I could actually do it.
Alton Brown never liked cooking shows that had time limits, because he felt that cooking good food should not be set within a structured amount of time.
3:34 guga is practicing for the glug glug 9000
Yea that was crazy
hey Guga, im sat here watching this video eating some nuts and was just thinking and bam! have you made a video dry aging with different nuts or nut butters? walnut, pistachio, almond and cashew nut butter sounds like it would be good 👀
GBD! He was a major reason i ended up getting into culinary just from the spark he started while i was a kid ..AAND the video you plaayed was one of my favs from him lol. Too bad skirt isnt cheap anymore
Loved how Alton paraphrased a quote from Full Metal Jacket.
@ 3:15 Loved the fake laugh
The Cave Man method, with modern ton foil... perfect!
I think what I've always loved about Alton Brown is he's an everyman. He isn't a Michelin starred chef that went through culinary school, and spent 20 years in professional kitchens and is now sharing his techniques with us. He's just a normal guy who does a few hours of research, maybe a little trial and error and then films an episode about what he found out. It's the same way I'd go about cooking the best meal I can to show off for my family, and that's why I relate to him so easily. It's why we all love Guga too, we aren't trying to be professional chefs, just the best home cooks we can be.
Well, he did actually go to Culinary School, he just didn't really spend much time in a professional kitchen before he made the jump to TV. Mind you, that was always part of the plan in going to Culinary School, since he had a background in video production (he did the videography for one of R.E.M's music video for "The One I Love" for instance)
I must say I have been watching your vids for a few years and I have to thank you. My wife refuses to eat steak anywhere else than at home. You helped me learn how to cook a great steak. However I would like to know, what grill do you use? I have similar looking grill only my grate does not spin quite like yours. I have 2 charcoal troughs I use in the center and then move the meat to the edges to finish cooking. It would be easier if I had a grate that spun like yours. Love your content, keep up the hard work!
I 100% agree that the flank / skirt steak is the tastiest portion of the cow. One thing I seem to be alone on though is I actually like the chewiness. Its like tasty tasty beef gum. Never ending beef gobstopper. Anyone w/ me? Also lime + salt is the best way to season it
Try orange with the lime next time. Super good
@@everymankitchen Will do 100% and report back
Hey Guga I love your videos I've been watching for a while. I have a suggestion though. I know in this channel you mostly react to other creators videos, but I think it would be a lot of fun if you also made a comparison between the other creator's recipe and your own or suggestions for their recipe.
The line "this is my grill, there are many like it but this one is mine" is an abridgment of a line from the movie "Full Metal Jacket"
3:34 😂 ayoo
6:35. dude, i also have an LG dryer (Only LG electronics make this music). I 100% taught it was mine that was done with its drying cycle lol!
I grew up watching Good Eats. I remember this episode. It was a good one.
@gugafoods small question I have is I've seen you always season your steaks before they get grilled or sou vid but what you only did a light amount then added the rest after while it cools?
hey Guga, wondering if you've ever tried crying tiger, a thai dish. typically strips of skirt steak marinated with a spicy lime sauce. would love to see a video on it if you haven't!
alton brown was the best. i only cooked one of his recipes but it taught me so much.
Great channel Guga. I have been a fan for quite a while now. Combine your knowledge with that of Alton Brown and it is a Win Win all day long.
I use hoisen sauce with skirt steak, and char it a bit... turns out amazing.
6:35 LG: "Let me sing you the song of my people"
Shout out to the LG dryer in the background. I def know that chime anywhere.
I never made, or had skirt steak. Gonna have to try it.
good eats is one of the all time best shows, any category. goat cooking show for sure
Alton Brown is the GOAT. Such a great chef and personality.
When Guga paused @6:30 I thought he was dancing to the ice cream truck lol. And I wouldn't have been mad at all if he took off to get something lmao.
Tell me you have an LG white good without actually telling me.
Love Alton! As much as you're videos
He also shows a way to sear a steak with the charcoal chimney and does a two heat zone cook. that's the way I love my steak to be cooked. and I pull mine off the grill when they hit 125-130 degrees and wrap in foil and let them rest. they carry over to 130-135 and are a perfect med rare.
Alton’s personal channel during quarantine has a Mexican street corn recipe that I will hands down recommend as the best.
I'm so happy that you reference how the price of items grow with their popularity! We actually have the food Network and videos like yours to thank for that...🤔
My two favorite Foodies!
I feel that on the skirt steak price rise. I live in socal and we have the same problem.
😂 we are having skirt tonight. I found it hiding in the bottom of the freezer, fortunately, vac pakd.
