Sam and his A5 Picanha = My best friend!
Les do itt 🫡
Correction: Drunken A5 Picanha.
Love your videos too Guga. Good to see you here.
We need a collab with you 2.
You need to show Sam how it's done!!
Guga, you know you got excited from the title of this video. We need a video with you and Sam together either down at the Guga complex or you out there yelling at Astro
I love how sam's first instinct was to figure out a way to share the beef he was so exited to be gifted. Thats a real show of who he is and why we enjoy his content as viewers
Exactly 🥰 Sam's good people and I love the recipes he shares 😋
This way the whole things tax deductible.
@@bfg3890 it’s tax deductible either way, it was bought for their “business “
Im an avid home cook, although no official culinary education like yourself. At least once a week I make one of your recipes. Its gotten my kids to try all kinds of new things, and they have always loved them. Your show has upped my culinary skills to the point where I am now inundated with people wanting me to cook for them. Its a dream come true. So, thank you Sam. Thank you.
Great episode. Can't wait to see the follow up for the dry aged! Absolutely made my mouth water. Thanks for another great show. 🔥
My dad found his love for cooking at 65 years old after being diagnosed with cancer. Your channel inspired him to stay positive and get in the kitchen to create (to this day!!). He introduced me to your channel and now I’m hooked. Thank you for your day to day inspiration and entertainment!!
that is so F* AWESOME. Good LuCk w your Daddy, ❤ and hope he continues to 'cook on' !! I think Sam & Fam have that kind of effect . LoVe them too !!
Sam and Max, I want y'all to know that my youngest son (15) and I have been able to really bond over your channel. We are always looking forward to new things to try and cook together that we learn from you! Keep up the great content and thank you for being a source of positivity in this world! Sincerely, Ken and Nolan S.
what a SPECIAL comment guys
(glad to see a Son & Father's bond, especially over cooking, how special ❤
@@maceycrovo6131 thanks for the kind words.
I am STARVING! I love your commentaries & instructions. Thank you for making these videos. I’ve never heard of some of the foods you have introduced to me & while I cannot afford a steak like what you’ve made in this video, I can use your skills & recipes. Thank you for sharing your love of food!
Sam, your videos have really changed my cooking. Adding flavor and texture (I’m always toasting my buns now) and showing us the easy way to make great food. Thank you so much!
This would be an awesome series! Every so often the boys pick a random ingredient (maybe from comment suggestions), surprise Sam with it, and Sam has one hour to make a fabulous main dish with the ingredient and only what he has on hand in his kitchen, freezer and pantry. It doesn't have to be expensive and would help a lot of us to think more outside the box when we're looking at what we have and trying to figure out what to make for a meal. Of course, pick ingredients Sam is at least somewhat familiar with. I believe he can do it!
Sam’s reaction to this is like a roller coaster. Fear, surprise, joy, confusion. It’s so Sam and we love him for this. I’ve never had Wagyu, but I can only imagine it’s absolutely delicious. Loved this one guys, cannot wait to see the Rib-eye after the dry ager.
We absolutely love watching your videos. We watch them every night. My husband and I have learned ALOT from you.
Great video! Thanks for putting together strong recipes I can do in my back yard for my family and friends.
Loved this one, not just for the amazing steak but how we got to see all of you connect❤
At the office barbecue, I grilled some rare steak for my boss, and he said, “I like it well done.”
I said, “Thanks. That means a lot.” Those were some high steaks there Sam! Nicely done!
Just the fact that your immediate reaction to cutting that steak open was to share it with a complete stranger tells us all we need to know about you Sam. You are a world class human with a following you have earned through hard work and dedication to your craft. Never stop being awesome.
Incredible episode! When my fiance showed me your channel a few years ago, I knew we had to make a stop at Not Not Tacos when we took a trip Cali. We got off the plane at LAX and immediately drove down to San Diego and had lunch. It was INCREDIBLE! 3 years later and I'm still thinking about those tacos! Keep up the good work and can't wait to make a trip back!
I love seeing things like this happened for you guys! Well deserved
3 of the reasons why this channel is simply the best:
1. The video, editing, and production is unmatched.
2. Sense of humor.
3. Relatable- You show your mistakes and makes us all realize that cooking isn't an exact science, but a feeling based adventure where is experimentation is key.
I'm sure many have tried but none can replicate you. You are a true legend.
I did a very similar thing! My dad styles himself a grill master (up for vigorous debate) but there is no denying his love for steak. He, however, is not a fan of fish. I went ahead and got him a huge slab of wagyu as well but repacked it in a box that originally housed fish. Seeing his face change from disgusted to complete euphoria was worth it! Great idea Max and you guys should do more mystery box episodes in the future!
Hey, it's worth a shot!
Thank you for your videos! Even though sometimes we may not have all that we need to make your dishes, your channel is still a staple in our house! It's nice to have a break from all of the craziness of the world, even if it's only for a short time.
Hey Sam, just wanted to share a quick story. A co-worker was displaced due to a house fire a few months ago, and his family had to stay in a hotel and had a very small (unusable) kitchen. I used your beef enchiladas recipe, took them to work when we switched shifts, and it was a huge hit! The family was very grateful and loved the food. Love the channel and am always checking back for new recipes. Just wanted to share with you guys my story, and to let you know that you're helping people in many different ways. Thanks for all the great videos!
love watching your show with my daughter. she's obsessed with steak and absolutely loved this video. everything from the cutting of the steaks from the bigger cut to the cooking method was educational and enjoyable.
I volunteer to come to San Diego to pick up the steak! My wife surprised me with a trip there in October to enjoy one of your restaurants for graduating from college this year. But, of course, nothing would make the whole experience better than being gifted a delicious steak by you.
Please pick him, Sam, otherwise his family and friends will never hear the end of it.
Sam, I’m the wife who planned the trip!!! We would love to see you - please pick Cody!
Sam, my friend Cody here talks about your videos and the food you prepare ALL the time! Whenever he grills he references you and tries to copy the way you do it. Please pick him!
Here is why I love Sam. He is literally like you and I. He loves cooking, came to it later in life but is so genuine and honest about what he can do and shows you what can be done. This episode is so fabulous. Keep going. Love it.
I broke my phone watching this. I drooled all over it.
I don't know how late in life...he's been around since i was a kid here in San Diego. I'm 41 now.
Ahh yes, because the average person can whine about their thousand dollar piece of overrated meat not being square... sure, literally like us....
I think I have watched 100 videos these last few days and I cant express how amazing it feels to watch you cook how I dream to cook. I can almost taste it. I love what you do. Thank you 😊
Love the show as always! There's so many channels to choose from but I keep coming back to yours over and over. I've made 10-12 of your recipes and my family loves them all!
Started watching your videos in summer of 2019. You ignited the cooking spirit inside of me and I’ve been cooking recipes for me and my wife ever since. Hoping for many more years of Sam the cooking guy✌️👍
Love the fact that Sam is brutally honest! The show of fear to fuck up such an expensive cut of meat is very much respected.
My wife watched this with me and says that the A5 has too much fat. Just like Sam's shirt, I explained to her that fat is flavor and if we were to ever be graced with A5... she would definitely feel differently
@Bliss rib-eyes slap, but a properly cooked NY Strip is amazing. Especially for the price
Love the channel. Your passion for flavor and creativity in your food is inspiring! I've made a number of your recipes at home and loved them. I would also be intimidated to cook this steak, but I would love that chance!
I love how you were so indecisive on the cook and then went with the tried and true basics and it was a phenomenal cook. Great stuff man, as always!
Looks amazing! Best times I’ve had are with my dad grilling for the family. Him and I always love watching your channel, continuing to learn 👏🏼
Your videos are the absolute best! Thank you for teaching young people like myself how to cook!
Your videos are the absolute best! Thank you for helping young people like myself get into cooking!
You guys don’t give yourself enough credit! I know the a5 wagyu is a daunting task but you did great. I could taste the juices from here! My favorite way to cook a steak is in a pan like you did, that sear on the crust is just divine.
Sam! This is a super special gift mate. My best mate and I have been doing a “steak night” every 4-6 weeks for about 3 years now and you are a massive influence on the way we cook!
So just wanted to say thank you for everything! Keep up the great work!
Cheers.. Paul 🤙🏼
You guys are amazing! Inspiring me to cook more!
Sam the man! One of the chillest dudes out there for sure. That laid back and can-do attitude about life is just the way I like to lead mine. Cheers on the new grandson!
My kids are the most spoiled kids in the world since I’m always feeding them STCG meals! We watch the videos and make the food together…nothing like daddy/daughter time!! Love your channel and keep up the great work!
I’ve been subbed to this guy since forever so seeing him cook something like this seems like a big milestone for him and his content
Love how REAL you guys are with the nervousness and price, and anyone who isn’t rich would feel the same way about Max’s blindside
This was awesome!! So glad you could do this and experience this
I love how emotional you got after you ate just 1 piece of that amazing steak! You started to profess your love for everyone. Well done, I would also be intimidated when trying to figure out the best way to cook it, and I did go to Culinary School!! Well done guys!
Sam, I love your show! I was deeply touched when you paused to gather together Max and Chance and expressed you love for them. Sharing that special moment with your viewers was a very wonderful blessing for all of us! Thank you for making our day!
i really learned a lot on how to cook these expensive wagyu steaks. thanks to your very detailed and informative videos.
Maybe I'm a bit late to comment, but a simple thank you for sharing so many ways to elevate food to another level and entertaining us while you do it!
I cook so many of your recipes. Sam is my go to on youtube! Would love to make a video opening the steak and cooking it Sam style!
But did you laugh during the video... 🤙🏼🍺
let your wife slap you with one of the steaks..
cook this one too
That looks amazing. I have made several of your recipes and everything has been wonderful. My dad was a grumpy chef and watching you interact with Max is hilarious and brings back memories. Thank you for the great content.
My son-in-law's Korê Steakhouse serves
Wagyu beef and their private menu and I absolutely love the taste of it being cooked on their table grill and eating it straight from the grill. It's life-changing if you've never eaten it before and it was one of the major things on my bucket list. Less is more a 1" cut of Wagyu steak would be way too much to eat. 👍🥰
First time I ever ate it, I'll be a man and admit I teared up from anticipation. I've been wanting it for years, and for years it was only served in a handful of restaurants in the United States. I appreciated every morsel and I shared it with everyone at my table.
That steak looked perfect. I love the way you used the spatula and tongs to flip that steak. I also loved the description of the buttery inside. Way to go!!!
Never had the opportunity to even see that steak in person. Looks so amazing. Love the channel, i have leaned to try new things watching you and guga! 🤘🤘🤘 keep the awesome videos coming!
The marbling on that steak is beautiful! I’ve cooked so many meals inspired by you! Thank you for the content! I hope your TH-cam channel keeps going strong!
I just finished making my dad a Happy Fathers Day Again dinner about an hour ago (Love my dad, spoil him as much as I can) and the steak I made for him looked amazing, but next to THAT it looked like a piece of boot leather lol!
Your videos seriously inspired me to start cooking. I love the unique twists you add that make your own. Keep up the great vids and have a Happy Holidays!
Love the idea of trying it... love it.... thank you
I am a steak fanatic and it’s thanks to you that my husband has learned to cook me the most amazing steaks ever! I could never thank you enough for basically teaching him how to cook amazing steaks! The amount of envy I felt watching you eat that. 😂 I will just have to live vicariously through you.
I love the respect that you wanted to give and did give to that steak. It was cool to see you all enjoy it for what it is. Love the channel brother, keep it up!
Love your show. We got our 5 and 6 year old hooked now. They like watching you cook their favorite foods. Especially the fries from the steak frites episode.
Thank you for sharing! Always terrific content and exceptional production!
Gah! My Husband was giddy when he saw this. Most of his cooking inspiration comes from you and Guga. Perfect! 👌🏻 My husband is well known in our neighborhood for his home cooking skills thanks to you guys! ❤️
Sam....Your son is AMAZING for doing such a nice thing for his dad. Way to go MAX!!!! Love your technique. I'll bet it was fantastic. Thanks for another great video.
I love the videos guys, I have definitely cooked many of the things you guys have...keep it up!
Really enjoy your show you get me excited about cooking
Sam, Max, and Chance, love the show. Can’t wait to get home from work on Mon, Wed, and Fri to see what’s cooking. Keep up the amazing work.
Heard about you for the first time on WMMR’s Preston and Steve show when they tried your potato chip mashed potatoes, but became a big fan when you did an interview with them (even though you were on vacation!). You were a riot, and so genuine about cooking what you like, even if you’re not a pro. Thank you for taking the pressure of perfection off of us and showing that cooking can be fun, with or without mistakes.
I could almost taste it through your description! Looks fantastic!!
One of my BEST episodes. You GUYS ROCK!!!!!!! Sam knows how to appreciate a good cut of beef, CAREFULLY
My stepdad always had a stern, watchful eye over my cooking so I never had the confidence to cook anything more than a grilled cheese. After moving out I found your channel and I’ve never felt more confident cooking anything. Absolutely love the crew and appreciate the work you put into the videos!
Sean YOUR DAD !! Has son controlling issues and moving out may turn off to be one of the smartest things you'd have even done in your life !!
This just looks like an entire experience. It’s more than eating a steak. It truly is on my bucket list to try a steak like this one day.
And take 2 hours to savour it...bit by delicious bit.....😁
Man oh man. I don’t even know if I want to comment. The pressure of grilling that steak will be too much, but yet here I am, mouthwatering for a taste!! You guys rock!
Hey Sam & Fam, I love watching your show. I’m a huge fan and hope to one day meet you. I spend countless hours watching you cook and I’ve made a number of your recipes successfully. One of my favorites is the short rib birria tacos. It’s a big crowd pleaser at bbqs. Keep on cooking! Love you guys!
OMG that steak looks incredible! I've never been in a position to try Japanese Wagu. I'm in Missouri and apparently no one can afford it. You guys make me want to mortgage something just to have a taste. Thanks for the great content.
First video I’ve watched and I loved it and look forward to looking through the archives. 🍻
So I’m a little late! But I will say that I have used a couple of your recipes and everyone loves them! I’m the only one who grills in the family now! Thank you! You’re the best I love learning from you!
I love how full of anxiety and happiness he was feeling all at the same time. Lol The steak turned out Perrrrfect! Exactly the way it's supposed to be eaten.
I would love to have a chance to have a once in a lifetime wagyu steak. That looked spectacular. Love your cooking ideas Sam. Keep up the good work.
Genuinely enjoyed watching this video, cant wait to watch more🍻👍🏼
Absolute gold. Would love to try this.
I can't even imagine the flavors going on with that steak it's like finding a rare Pokémon lol. Trying A5 wagyu is on my bucket list for sure. You guys rock thanks for showing the world to cook again.
I can only imagine what other food youtubers would do with something like this. You did an amazing job despite the nerves being around such an impressive piece of glory. Just remember, happy cows make happy steaks.
Absolutely gorgeous piece of meat!!! My husband & I have just recently started to experiment with Wagyu steak and it’s INSANELY the most beautiful thing in the whole entire world that our taste buds have EVER experienced 😋😋😋 I’m seriously drooling over both of your Wagyu videos!!!! Thank you
I look forward to watching your episodes each week. You make everything seem easy and love the recipes. Love this channel!
I'm always impressed how much Max's knowledge of cooking has gotten over the years!
That may be the best surprise I’ve ever seen! Your son REALLY LOVES you! BTW, you should bring back the paper towel roll! I’m sure I’m not the only one that misses it…😂🤣😂
Drooling here... thanks!
I love wagyu steak I love all the food you guys cook it gives me ideas so that I can cook different foods and stuff knowing that if you can cook it I can cook it and I love the fact that you guys are a family-oriented channel
I'm going to see that steak in my dreams tonight! Thanks for years of great content. Wouldn't be the cook I am today without it. Love you and the boys. Can't wait to see what comes next! Would be ECSTATIC to win this steak (insert Homer Simpson drooling gif) 🤤
I always joke with my husband that we have about a dozen ways to cook meat at our house, and dont need any more. Stove top, vertical smoker, gas grill, charcoal grill, fire pit. The reality is I'm just jealous that he is so skilled when it comes to this stuff and has no problem spending 13 hours working on one thing. No sad story here, just 2 people who love your channel and have copied more recipes than I can count. Thank you!
Looks delicious!!!!! Something I always wanted to try 🔥🔥
This was awesome to watch! The way I really enjoyed the A5 I ordered was to cut it into like 1 inch cubes or strips and sear each side on a small grill or cast iron pan. to me it had way more flavor that way
Whenever I think about trying to cook something new, I ask myself.. "Has Sam The Cooking Guy made this?" Nine times out of ten, the answer is yes, and I use his recipe.
Sam, Max, and Chance, I would proudly wear my "If fat means flavor..." t-shirt while cooking (in my STCG cast iron pan), and eating this with my amazing wife. Great episode!
Just found your channel today! Amazing and Inspiring!
Perfectly cooked loos amazing good work guys! I knew you could do it!
All your videos are great. This one…TREMENDOUS!
Sam: “This was $1,000?”
Max: “Yes.”
Sam: “You’re irresponsible.”
Love it, LMAO and envious. Never had A5, maybe one day. Keep posting, a true cooking inspiration. Visit East TN and you can cook in my kitchen anytime!
Quick tip: You can collect the oil from the meat and use it to cook veggies (caramelized onions / asparagus) instead of wiping it away like at 11:07. Makes a great side to the steak.
we came for steak not veggies
I’m excited for this! Let’s see what else comes from these steaks!!
Been watching your videos for years - Keep up the tasty work fellas!!
That looks SO AMAZING! And I completely understand Sam's hesitation and fear. Just a wonderful piece of meat cannot be treated wrong! I hope to one day try a piece of A5 wagyu. Every time I see one in a video, I get excited to see how it is prepared and the reactions of those eating it.
Great video guys!
Nothings more vulnerable than seeing how sensitive a man is about his meat. Incredible
First time viewing. Nice presentation. You went through the same indecision us regular people go through.
Been watching your channel for a while and I've always liked how you cook unapologetically, and show the mistakes. It helps me want to get better at cooking and realize that even some of the most experienced cooks still mess up every once in a while. I'd love to win one of those steaks for my dad who's a big steak fan. I don't think he's ever had A5 Wagyu so this would be an awesome surprise for his birthday.
Hi Sam, Max, and Chance. I’d love to have that steak!
Sam - I’ve never cooked anything of mention for most of my life (I’ll be 52 in August). When the pandemic hit, and all the restaurants were shut down I was pretty depressed and longing for good food. I stumbled on your channel and you were doing the In-and-Out video. It made me drool for a good burger. And I was like, “hell, I can do that” and so I did. Along with numerous recipes since then. Basically, you taught me to cook and now it’s one of my favorite pastimes. My wife is very happy, and I’ve gotten pretty damn good at it. That’s because of your channel. So thank you.
Max - Love your rig and editing skills. I’m a designer, photographer, and videographer. So I appreciate how well you shoot and edit vids. What do you edit with? I use Premier.
Chance - Dude. Always good to see another Finn out there. Keep up the great work. Sisu!
Vouch, give the guy and his wife a steak
