>>19199153
I mean I get it, but I think he has even said that that's not what his channel is about. With so many creators out there doing "hacks" on how to do shit easier, he has gone in the opposite direction. And as I said doing all that difficult and time consuming shit is actually a pretty good learning experience. Who could have thunk?
Sam the cooking guy is kinda the same. Yeah dude, I'll just fire up my backyard flattop in my kitchen-patio and try this shit out. His stuff does look fucking great though. And even though he is kinda cringe as well at times, he also seems to know what he's doing.
In general you don't really have to follow every recipe to just pick out good ideas from here and there.

Well he's kind of a faggot in general and got his balls snipped I'm pretty sure. I mean I haven't been letting his bucktoothed wife taste test my salami in person, but put two and two together.
At least he made a couple of children before he removed himself from the gene pool. Unless they are his neighbor's, which I must say is highly likely.

Overall he's the kind of guy that has the evidence for "Miss Scarlett with a rope in the library" in front of him due to his quite extensive research and interviews with experts and then he concludes his video with some fucking retarded shit like "So it seems to have been Professor Plum with a candlestick in the kitchen".

Sam is pure entertainment though; he doesn't pretend to be instructional. Like, I just watched a breakfast burrito of his, and it involved eggs, bacon, chorizo, and three McDonald's hashbrowns. No one is going to go to McDonald's to only buy hashbrowns to take home and use as an ingredient on a breakfast burrito once they've gone cold. You can lift ingredient and technique ideas from him here and there, but there's no pretense that his videos are practical recipes.
Weissman on the other hand disingenuously tells viewers that by simply purchasing ingredients in bulk and spending a couple hours putting a recipe together, you too can have a Big Mac But Better. Yeah great, that'll be perfect to feed my family of ten.

Weissmans recipes are unironically god tier though. Yeah it takes a while, but as a sunday treat for me and my gf they fucking hit hard. Can't imagine being able to make fresh bread daily working a full time job, of course, but it is perfectly doable as an occasional thing.
His cookbook has a lot of basic instructions for stuff as well. Most of the recipes are things that I would never make, but around a third are really useful as well to work off of. If it's too complicated switch something out for store bought and you can have a quick weeknight recipe.
I think either:
1) People get stuck in the "Well I don't have a stand mixer, so..." mentality. Nigger have you even tried??
2) /ck/ is mostly a bunch of retards and it's simply a skill issue. If the fucking faggot David Seymour can execute his recipes, what is your excuse? Given you have a free day to mess around.

>>19198542
>I'm a fan of our guy Lagerstrom
I like Brian's video because he:
1. Gives a specific cause-and-effect explanation and justification for each step in his recipes for what they do to the final dish
2. Importantly he explains or even demonstrates what happens when you DON'T follow the steps from recipe development (this eliminates the temptation to think of many of them as "optional")
3. Does not edit out large fuckups.
4. Explains what's wrong with traditional or popular methods when he deviates majorly from them.
I particularly like #4 which you can see in his videos on cooking dry pasta in the sauce in the oven and making a tomato soup again in the oven from raw loosely chopped veggies.

>>19199153
>I hate Weissman's elitist attitude, most people don't have the time to make everything from scratch so they would rather order a fast food than make something better
But that's why "But Cheaper" exists to show viewers that making homemade versions of restaurant menu items are both economical and better tasting with proper care and technique. The issue is Weissman flexes too much when he substitute homemade vs. storebought core staples like making his own breads/pasta or grinding his own sausage/meat. Certainly makes for more entertainment and views but can be self-defeating for the purpose of not intimidating non-cooks even when he assures them store-bought is fine. Also he can't help himself and gilds the lily a bit too much wrt accouterments and garnishes.

Well there's the whole video where the retard tries to explain why dipping your finger and not a spoon in food to taste it is totally fine and not disgusting. Like he spends the whole video explaining how and why it doesn't burn his finger instead of showing how dipping a small spoon in a sauce, putting that fucker in your gullet and rinsing it under the tap is somehow an insurmountable challenge compared to sticking your booger hook in people's food.
In his kosher salt video he talks about how pinching salt is some magical cure all solution for all cooking. Because regular salt needs a shaker and when handling meat you'd make it dirty. As opposed to sticking your meat-juiced hands in a pot of salt to pinch it I guess. (While I do use both flaky finishing salt and coarse sea salt myself, I would never pay 5x the price just to dump that shit into my pasta water)
His metric vs imperial video is kinda retarded as well. He talks about how you can't divide metric well (because apparently you can only stick fractions in front of pinkies and feet) and then falls back onto the most retarded "argument" of "I know how much a pound is so it's more intuitive than 453 grams". Like yeah nigger because that's what you use. If you write in english the latin alphabet will be pretty damn intuitive. When you are a russoid snownigger about to be sent to Bakhmut, moonrunes that you have been staring at for your whole life would be more intuitive instead.

This is probably what disturbs me most about that guy. In the first videos where he made videos with his brother or flatmate or gay lover or whoever they made so many weird moves and decisions, blabbered shit as if they knew anything and labelled themselves as pro anything.

Even though Adam Ragusea is a borderline schizoid sociopath, he does keep saying that he's not a chef and just someone who likes to cook at home, which is either some nice honesty or his inner psycho deliberately manipulating his image. But in any case as >>19205297 demonstrated, he's pretty much off his rocker. While I do agree with him, that the kind of anal elitism from niggers that couldn't even cook an egg is retarded, some elitism or rather standards I'd say are required in the kitchen. It's amazing how inept and/or disgusting some people can be around food.

You can have a personal opinion. You have probably grown up using F and thus it seems to be more intuitive than C. While the difference here is less drastic than for other units, C does make more sense for cooking in terms that it's 0 and 100 are directly tied to states of water. But otherwise I can't think of an objective advantage if you're used to the other scale.

>>19206555
I get that you want to use your toes and pinkies for everything in cooking, but you can just convert all that garbage into grams and ml and do just fine.

I can't deny his culinary sensibilities seem like they are time-warped from another era, but that's part of the appeal for me on top of excellent execution. You don't see too many YT cooks busting out the Chicken Fricassée or Lobster Thermidor for instance. I would also say part of it could be down to the lighting of his kitchen and the recording equipment they use. Look at some earlier channel videos where I think they rented a better camera and warmer bulbs (this was when his team also had a GoPro for closeup zooms of the more dexterous work before it got accidentally baked in the oven):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5o-u7zjlShQ

Here's some captures from his Honey Garlic Salmon video that he just put up the other day as an example and comparison:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRMAdKdPULs
Personally I think it looks delicious in the pan. With respect to plating, could he have diced the carrots into multi-colored coins and fanned them out nicely? Could he have rested the fish on top of a bed of the couscous instead of having it on the side? Sure. He takes his time to pretty up the dish for the thumbnail, but as far as serving/tasting for the video I think he tries to strike a balance between showing a long-by-youtube-standards continuous cooking program without many jumpcuts and not boring the audience by fussing too much over the finer details at the end. Also certain recipes like this one in particular are meant to be workhorse weeknight meals compared to some of his other more special occasion videos like his Osso Buco or Bûche de Noël.

>i also like his style of videos, reminds me of comfy 1980s and 90s tv chefs.
I understand that he literally had a PBS cooking show like Pepin and Cajun chef Justin Wilson (who he mentioned being friends with before he passed in his gumbo episode) back in the 90s.

Brad has always been based but his new ultra high production basically just network TV videos are unwatchable. I hate American TV so much and that's all his stuff is now

desu the pro home cooks guy doesn't seem like too much of an asshole, but it's obvious he hasn't been an average home cook in ages. He seems to have a lot of money and time on his hands and his videos reflect that.

Adam has really been taking a nose dive with his content lately, i love his older content. the way he streamlined his recipes and provided some cool ideas for home cooks while also communicating the information in a clear and pleasant way was very inspiring and was one of the things that got me into homecooking. but now he is really focusing on these fancy meals that are just unfeasible in a basic home kitchen, the decline started right at the point when he got that big house in Knoxville with the fancy gas stove.

Did Weissman fuck half of the cu/ck/s wives here or what? His zoomer/ebonic way of talking is occasionally cringe, but dude shows all the exact steps clearly, explains why stuff is done. Clearly states what can be substituted and what shouldn't. Provides measurements in metric and retard. And he knows what he's doing (sans the few meme videos eg. "air fryer bad lol"). I can think of a dozen other foodtubers that come across a lot more elitist and condescending.

unironically high IQ take because few recognize just how sloppy and disgusting he is, let alone remark on it. i also dislike just how careless and dirty he is. everything he has is out on the counter, no tool is in a drawer or something, it's all out, scattered everywhere, collecting dust and dirt, he'll spill water while cooking everywhere, doesnt clean it up, just leaves it there letting it dry out, not realizing bacteria thrive on water. he always walks barefoot, god knows how dirty his fucking floors and carpets are

Brian Lagerstrom because his videos are contained recipes without getting too fluffy or up his own ass and he tells you the why which lets you apply things to your own cooking in other dishes. A bonus is he gives you small chef hacks like using 2 deli lids to cut a bunch of cherry tomatoes at once.
I like chlebowski for certain debunking or nerd shit like his san marzano tomato vid but he kinda falls on the 'just some guy' side like ragusia and his pacing and organization feels a bit off.
If Kenji started using Brian's production style he'd be the goat.

alvin zhou is the best food tuber. I am sad he joined the babbish universe. his videos are still okay but his personal ones are very kino. the last video was 1 year ago.

If you just want recipes rather than entertainment though I'd go with chef john every time. Still, I normally don't need recipes unless I'm making something I never made before. I normally seek out strange street food dishes and look for ways to fusion clam slam them together.

nah. PHC makes good content. he's kinda smug and jewy but the content is good. needs to be some kind of Z-axis for... usefulness? like Adam makes pretty good videos for a home cook despite being openly unskilled (possibly BECAUSE they're low-skill recipes for low-skill cooks, who gotta eat too) and pretty easily unlikeable. I can't imagine anyone actually making half the shit Babish ever posts, same with (contemptible) Weissman. They're there just for the spectacle.
But Chef John At FoodWishes Dot Com is still top at that where there's basically nothing he makes that you couldn't just make by following step by step.

Lastly, because I say it in every thread and WILL say it on every thread: Internet Shaq does not belong in this conversation. He's like a kitchen-youtuber, not a cooking-youtuber. Half his videos he doesn't even make any dishes, he has no recipes, he just stands at a counter and talks about kitchen topics without doing anything. Fuck that guy.
