FYI it’s Terry Black’s, not Terry’s black (although for all I know, Terry could in fact be black)
Yeah i really messed that up all trip 😭
@@TheBeesleys99 🤣
😂😂😂
To be fair he did say Terry Black's once.
No
As an American who has spent some time in England, I'm glad you've finally had the opportunity to taste good food.
That’s what we keep telling you guys from the UK…. If you cook the steak properly, you don’t want sauce on it.❤️🤗🐝
Yeah, the first sign to my family my steak sucks is when I ask for the A-1.
I love James’ mom. She seems so sweet. And I love seeing her interact so kindly with Millie. Y’all have a very sweet family.
She seems to be getting so much more comfortable on camera as well.
she is the dream Mother in Law to have :)
I eat my steak rare.Prefer it to be runnin🎉g by when I get it with a fork.
I think we’ve converted Millie to eating her steaks medium rare from now on!
well... US med rare anyway. remember she comes from a land that boils food until it has no taste.
That looked more medium to me, but yes! Don't overcook your steak.
@@bluflaam777 I thought so too lol
@@goaway152🤣🤣
Looked medium too me too. I have to have med well though although the better the steak the closer to med I can go@@bluflaam777
Glad you guys are enjoying your American culinary experience. And James, your mom is adorable. Please let her know that America loves her.
One thing I can say about Texas is they do things right when it comes to meat and barbecue
The south as a whole does great with almost all food.
Except pig. They are OK on real BBQ, but not exceptional. They do cow BBQ better than anyone, but, as a proud NC resident, "if it ain't pig, it ain't Q"
@RLKmedic0315 well that's why here in Texas baby, beef IS KING (brisket/dino ribs/ steaks) no need for bbq sauce. Other meats, anyone can take as & be proud of. But I will agree..pork is not our greatest master.
We do try. And we enjoy watching others enjoying our way of cooking.
Nah. Stop it. We own BBQ, including pig. Keep your fruity mayo or mustard based sauces.
Wearing a "California" shirt in TX. Bless your heart.
😂
Ive seen more than one Brit say that British BBQ or British grilling is to cremate a burger patty.
The British don't have barbecue. They grill.
“How do you get your meat so “JOOSAY” love the way it’s said😂😂😂😂
Agreed 😂
same!
Reverse sear is the trick!
Lol! Everything is better in Texas!!!
I like when your mom gets some time on camera. It's fun visiting with her too. Enjoy your visit. Well, you're home already, so. lol
As an American, I’m jealous you Brits get to have Texas steaks and BBQ when I’ve never tried either. Just kidding! Just means I need to get my Nebraska ass to Texas to get the real deal.
My fam hails from Cook, Nebraska. Hope to visit someday. I grew up in TX.
Come on down!
FYI.
I've lived in 12 of our 50 states.
Good food is not regional.
I live in Texas for 4 years and that is where I had the best pizza.
I lived in NY and that's where I had the best Asian food.
Cincinnati was the best meal of my entire life. Washington state was the best smoke house.....
You can get good food anytime, anywhere without leaving your state. Don't fall for the theme that only Texas has good BBQ. It's a false narrative.
@@kristinajackson9606how did you have the best pizza in Texas? They didn’t even rank on the rating going on in the US for best pizza state. New Haven CT did lol.
@bigbcor
Mom and pop places generally have better food than the hype of the places that get rated. Yes, Texas was where I had the best pizza. In The Woodlands outside of Houston.
The meats are so juicy, because they weren't overcooked. Most meat is needing to reach 165° to be done. Medium, or medium rare, is below that temperature. Beef brisket is a tough cut of meat to begin with, so it is cooked with low heat & smoke, to tenderize it.
Hello James mom. Go for messy. That is what wings are all about.
This should be titled "Eating Our Way Across America". LOVE it!
mashed potatoes arent always made in a "whipped" state in the US, many like them not completely mashed but "chunky"
I used to work at a restaurant many years ago that kept the prep cook busy. We could always tell his mood by the mashed potatoes. Light, fluffy potatoes = happy cook. When he was upset or peeved, the lumps had lumps.
Lumps are proof they are made from real potatoes, not instant.
And chunky is best.
@@wolfdaddy7098 love lumps in my taters.
I like my mashed potatoes with a few lumps!
Delicious!!
Wearing a California tshirt in Texas is brave. 🤣🤣 I eat my steak medium rare too. And Ribeye is my favorite cut with a Porterhouse being my second fav.
Their steak was medium.
I sit amazed at your enjoyment of our food. I enjoyed your mom's input as well, glad you gave her a bite of your steak!
I worked at a steak chop house for a year back in the day. When somebody would ask for it to be well done, I'd go in the kitchen and have the chef offer up an end piece well done and one medium rare. It's amazing how many changed their mind. I can't remember one single person saying they'll stay with well done. Nice vid guys - happy you both enjoyed yourselves.
great customer service - nice way of introducing the flavor
I usually ask for medium well.
@@wal6377 Yeah, that is the sweet spot. Medium would probably be even better, but cooks don't all cook the same and you will get some too rare. To avoid the hassel, I order medium well too.
I prefer well done, and if cooked right it can be very delicious as well
@@stanleymyrick4068
There's a couple of reasons they cook "differently", but it all amounts to fhe same thing.
They don't want to spend that much time cooking each food item. The more time they spend cooking each item, slows them down, and if the restaurant is in full swing, people wont be happy they need to wait that long for dinner
They feel they know better. This is pure arrogance (not to say the customer service aspect of what the OP tried was bad, and I DO applaud their initiative).
They are afraid the customer won't like the meat cooked THAT well done, and will ask for a new steak cooked less anyways.
My step father would have been someone that would have had his food sent back until they made it WELL DONE. He hated it "red" in any way, shape, or form. He would order food "burned" instead of well done.
There are some people who think that asking for well done ruins a steak.
Millie, the reason you are use to dry steak is because you get it well done. The more it's cooked the less juicy it is. Steak is best at medium rare to medium.
@rmlrl1971 no necessarily. I only eat well done steak and when cooked right it is very tender. Low and slow. Most places cook it too high which dries it out so that it doesn’t take long in order to serve the entire table.
@katy5467 If you're cooking it well done save your money and just eat roast beef You're ruining the steak.
@@katy5467 you aren't gonna get well done meat at a low temperature
@@JACpotatosSure you will. Low temp is how you get meat (or anything) done on the inside without being overcooked on the outside (and without cooking away all the juices. A nice initial sear helps too).
It's also how you cook pot roast, or pit roasts, Hawaiian pork roasts, or BBQ for that matter. Low and slow and done all the way through.
Though I'm in the steak should be medium rare camp.
@@jackgilchrist 🤦 different temperatures will give different levels of doneness. If you keep it low, it's not gonna be well done... Which is a good thing. Well done meat is gross anyways.
Unless You're cooking at a high enough temp to get it to well done in the first place. I cook with very precise temps when it comes to meat. It'll never be well done regardless of how long I cook it
There is another secret to eating juicer steaks and that is to allow them to rest after cooking. If you immediately slice it all the juices come flowing out. Give the outer crust 5-10 mins to set and keep all that juice inside and you'll be golden.
Perfect advice for grilling or sear to oven cooking. A reverse-sear requires no rest time if cooked properly.
Millie....a lot of restaurants make mashed potatoes with little chunks of potato. Many have skin in theirs too....or garlic.....so many options.
The secret to juicy steaks dont cook them WELL DONE
OMG - well done --- THE HORROR!!
medium rare tastes entirely different from a rare steak --- so it is your choice ....
HOWEVER ......
my favorite description is to just let the ribeye!! steak walk across the coals --- warmed thru but definitely rare ----some think it is not as good as medium rare where there is a lot of marbling. However, on a hot grill you get graded rareness working from edge to middle ... best of all worlds ..... ahhh
We deport people for ordering well done steaks
Prime grade meat helps too because of the fat content
😂😂😂same thought I had 😂😂😂
As we should @@NewCaney1 it's a crime against that poor steer to cook it well done.
When you showed the wings and said there were so many, I was thinking, "Is that half the order?"🤣
I live in Dallas, and I go to Terry Blacks every couple of months. Love those guys. Always so great to meet out of towners there at the bar. Makes a Texan feel proud.
I am a texan and the river walk is my favorite thing and always will be.
James' mom looks like she fits in so well in TX. With her attire, her hat as seen in other videos, and her overall appearance she could seamlessly blend in with a TX crowd.
His mum is such a sweetie!
Whatever surface you cook on, make sure that it is screaming hot before putting the meat on it. That is the easiest way to keep your meat juicy.
And the easiest way to tell if it's screaming hot is by touching it with your finger. If you immediately scream, you're good to go. 👍
@@Osprey850 As a professional non-chef, I can say this is the best method.
After seeing u both try so many delicious foods while yr mom sits behind the camera watching the little one. I hope y'all give her a proper meal afterwards. 😜
texas steak is the gold standard,so enjoy yourselves and don't hold back!!LOL----mister x
I'm not from Texas, nor am I even a big fan of Texas, but my family raised beef cattle, so I do know beef. No other state does beef as good as Texas.
Thank you!!!!! 🤠
Florida beef is pretty good
@@dalemoore8582 From what I understand, Florida raises cattle for breeding in other states mainly. Florida also has more cowboys than Texas.
i resemble that remark (cattle ranch in Colorado)
@@davidcosta2244 rofl
James, your mama is a doll. I love seeing her reactions as well
Your mom is absolutely BEAUTIFUL !!! Welcome to Texas, Beautiful lady and kiddo's of course . So when are y'all just going to go ahead and move the whole family on over here ?
Love seeing mum enjoying with you!!! Happy Mother's Day, ladies!!😘💜
I'm so glad you are enjoying the great state of Texas! Born and raised here. Rib eye steak is my favorite. It's the juiciest because it has more fat in it than other cuts of meat.
I'll still buy Ribeye on sale, but my go to is Chuckeye.
I prefer sirloin
Very cool that you can travel & try new foods & bring your mom. Wow, what a beauty 👌
Glad you guys loved the food! ❤
I absolutely LOVE both of your reactions. Your both are so awesome. Thanks for sharing
I’m so happy you guys went to Texas. It’s one of the best states in the whole USA!🇺🇸
Right. One of the 50 best states in the US.
We think so. And thank you. We aren't perfect, but we try.
@@pacmanc8103one of the best 3. Depending what you’re looking for politically and culturally
I love the idea of a big juicy medium rare steak at a Texas Steakhouse. It sounds absolutely wonderful. ❤🇺🇸🙏🏻👍🏻
Love your Mom !! She is so funny. Glad you guys had fun
I just love watching yall enjoying the food! I make my own food everyday, and it is so good. I know how good I have it here in America. Food is a big reason i have no desire to travel abroad.
P.S.
James, your mom is absolutely beautiful and elegant!
Your steak looks more like Medium Well, than medium rare.
Yeah I was thinking more straight up medium. Hard to tell on camera though.
@@ahoyforsenchou7288I grille and eat mine straight medium but order medium rare in restaurants for this exact reason. This definitely looks like straight up medium to me as well.
Medium well is very good.
Agreed. Maybe there's a reason the other places were booked.
What a great trip for the rest of the family too!
Loved the look on both of your faces when you had the steak. Pretty sure there was a race going on, to see which one could say "OHMAHGAWD!" first!! Great post.
I am glad you folks came to Texas and got to experience our Texas way of cooking beef. To watch you all enjoy the food is rewarding.
Here is the kicker. You both have to learn how to make some of the foods you enjoyed so you can make it when you go back home to England.
Well done is dry ! That’s why you get it medium rare !
Medium is good too
@@RamblingRob-vi7ctif your a toddler
@@hardknox1917 Such a goofy hill to die on. What they eat don't make you shit.
@@shalakabooyaka1480 actually eating does make you shit #schooled #TP

Best BBQ in Texas is found at road side stands and small hole in the wall family owned restaurant and not chain shops.
Glad y'all enjoyed your visit to our great state.
Milli is brave to wear a Cali shirt in Texas. Bravo. Glad y'all like your trip.
Love your mom and would like to see her reactions more! Love from Michigan, USA ❤
Omg!!! Whos mom is that?? She is so cute... love her!!! Bring her back
I am so glad your channel is doing well and affording you an opportunity to visit the United States.
You guys make me smile. :) GOD BLESS TEXAS!
Amazingly funny how they effortlessly are comfortable saying " Oh my God" while being in the States rather than the " Oh my days" in the UK.😂
James is feelin that beer. Awesome video like always ya'll. Its great to see visitors from different countries enjoying things we as Americans take for granted ❤😊
Hope you return for another visit. One place to see is Colonial Williamsburg in Virgina. The entire place is a living history museum. All characters working at the Museum are living as if it was the 1670's to the 1730's. Just like it was in the Colonial period before the American Revolution. You can see how early settlers grew cotton, spun the threads, wove cloth and made clothes. Copper Smith's, Blacksmiths. Tin Smith's. Coopers, wagon makers, lumber makers. How food was made over open fire. Baking bread in clay ovens. Building houses and how everything was done in the earliest days of America. You can see why American's have a sence of individualism. Compare to Europeans that more of a sence of collectivism.
AWWWW - GREAT REACTION, YOU-GUYS!!! :) LOVE MOM!!! ENJOY, YA'LL!! GLAD to see you're enjoying your visit to TEXAS! :) HUGS!!
Love your videos and enthusiasm. I have vacationed in every part of Texas over the years and whether served seafood on the coast or steaks and barbeque elsewhere, the food is always great.
Your steak is what I would call medium, as medium rare should be much pinker. (Definition of medium rare is a "warm, red center". All in all, your meal looked great, but I'd limit my choice of a "steakhouse" to ones that don't even offer many of the options you had. A bit stuffier, and more pricey, but also with quality of meat that would blow you away. In any event, one of my favorites of your videos so far.
That’s what I was thinking. Little more medium than what I would want
I only eat steak medium rare Grandpa was a butcher.He said steaks should be medium rare and do not use steak sauce.If you have to put steak sauce on your meat, the meats poor quality.
Texas=Steak. It's not surprising it's the best you've had!
I can't agree with that statement, New York has the best steakhouses in the country.
@@dewelrivera3305 At what cost? Only reason why New York has good steak is because it's probably not New Yorkers cooking it, it's people all over the world. You're not going to find affordable good steak in New York. Places like Texas, you can hit up a small establishment in your tshirt and jeans and have good steak and BBQ, in New York it's fancy suits eating over priced steaks. Comparing a place for the super rich vs a place where it's just ordinary Americans, doesn't make sense.
@@dewelrivera3305 Got to know where you are going. Best steaks I've had were in Texas. I live in PA and go to NY all the time, and ironically the only NY steak I've had that compared was from a Texas BBQ place that movies to NY.
@@dewelrivera3305 That's because those steak houses get their beef from Texas.
I love your videos. 👏👏👏
The secret to a good steak is to put a nice crust on the outside so it holds all the juices in followed by letting it rest before cutting so those juices thicken up a little and stay inside. You guys had a nice steak.
I am very glad you guys have gotten the chance to come over here..we need more brits to vistit the US.
Riverwalk at Christmas time is even prettier.
11:50 Nice 👍 legends.
Upstate NY has and LOVES! Texas Roadhouse 🥩 😎✌️too!!
So happy for your adventures 😎✌️👍
Listening to you two and mom is making me want to go grab a steak now lol. Think I'll have to do that tomorrow. Thank you for visiting Texas! Come back and see us! 🇺🇲
Welcome to Texas!!
For juicy steak: Salt a healthy amount or marinade the steak and refrigerate at least an hour before cooking. (Keeps moisture in the meat, since water will go where the salt is.) Bake at 350 F for about 10-15 minutes, then remove and sear over very high heat in a little oil for 30-60 seconds or so on each side for a good crust. (Reverse sear method) Should be warm and red-to-pink in the center.
So enjoyable watching you all!!!!!🥰
Most people eat a baked potato with the steak instead of the mashed. They will also give you butter and sour cream for you to put on top if you want to. It's delicious
Glad yall are enjoying texas so far. Love from Glen Rose texas.
Goodness, you're in San Antonio! Welcome! Have a good time!
We lived in San Antonio for over 20 years, but moved away about 6 years ago. Thanks so much for bringing back so many great memories of Texas, San Antonio, and the Riverwalk. We really do miss it.
I love you guys! You's are respectful, appreciative, loving to each other! I love to see your family! Just really enjoy you's!
The way you say juicy "JOO-SAY" is making me crave a steak. The food looks so good!
Joo-say_Jew-sea...tomayto/tomahto
I am really glad you guys enjoyed your trip to our great country.
If you come again, drive through the smaller towns in a state.
Unless I was in a mega hurry, I always traveled the older highways and backroads. The ones that people traveled before the interstate system.
There's soooo soooo many awesome smaller restaurants and diners in smaller towns. Not to mention wonderful shops with unique items. Especially in the fall you will find loads of festivals and markets.
The big cities really only offer big buildings and big crowds with big traffic lol.
There is so very much more to see and do. Not to mention that all the channels all rush to do the exact same thing. Be brave, be rebels and take the initiative to do something different.
im just glad you guys are enjoying our turbulent but fine nation.
The key is cooking tbe steak slow on low until you get the center perfect, then turn up tve heat and get a perfect sear on the exterior.
So glad that y’all got to experience some American food
Just to be clear, Terry Black's and Texas are not the only places in the U.S. that you can get good steak or good brisket. I've sampled neither in Texas but I've had some pretty good samples of each on the East coast.
I'm 58, worked at American Airlines and gotten to travel from coast to coast, overseas and North to South to both borders. I grew up eating BBQ.
The best BBQ I've ever had was at Terry Blacks.
Everyone around the globe knows Texas. Nobody knows whatever you're talking about 😂
I agree 💯👍
@@platonique Nobody ever heard of the rest of the country, besides Texas? You mean they don't have good barbecue in Kansas or in the Carolinas?
To be honest and fair, if one has the time, trying standard BBQ elsewhere so you have something to compare a place that specializes in it to like a Terry Blacks is a good idea.
Me and another friend of the family took my best friend’s (lives out of town) little sister to a fancy steakhouse for her 21st bday. She ordered hers medium well and asked for ketchup when it came. I wanted to slide under the table and hide
Steaks are usually grilled/broiled and not smoked. Different tastes in meat comes down to type of cattle/animal, the age, what it is fed, the soil the feed comes from, climate, etc., etc. Impossible to exactly re-create the exact same taste on a different continent. But it doesn't mean you can't get equally as good in other places -- just different.
I feel like you should start o series where both of your mums try/react to things at the same time- that would be fun to watch
Well done, always well done ty.
there are different levels of cooking and bbq. once you break though to the top level, it's pretty much all the same with slight differences in spices, rubs, and sauces. but you're still going to be eating wonderful foods. that's nearly on par with each other... so trying to compare two or more top places to each other isn't possible, you can only compare which one you personally like better.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Love seeing all these fun videos from your trip! I’m on the east coast - but really enjoyed San Antonio the one time I visited too.
Silky-smooth potatoes is more like what we would call puréed potatoes or potato purée. Mashed has bits that are still firm, especially in the South. Purée is more of a northern food for sure.
As an Ohioan living in Texas, I will say I've mispronounced a great many things living down here for 7 years or so. Don't sweat that stuff, awesome that you got to see SATX, hopefully you got to check out the Tea Garden while you were here.
Welcome to America we love you, y'all enjoy yourself in Texas that's where my son lives and I live in Oklahoma, we'd love for you to join our Americans and come live here y'all enjoy your stay and we as Americans will make sure you're okay, we love those who love us, y'all have a blessed day and your family now.
Nice to see Mum , but he was he keeping an eye Mum when she was trying his STEAK
#1 secret to juicy meat is to avoid over cooking things. Use a thermometer when cooking meat. Always. Also, use the right cooking technique. Barbecue refers to slow cooking at relatively low temps with indirect heat. So, brisket or ribs will cook at 250 degrees F for hours and hours. A grill is used for high heat, direct cooking. Use a grill for steaks (on do them in a cast iron skillet if you want great crust). In any case, use a meat thermometer to determine when to pull the meat off. Season things well to start with. Britain conquered and colonized half the earth at one point, but for whatever reason ignored spices other than in “curry” and decided to keep boiling everything and eating it well done.
I like my steak rare or very rare if it is well aged, good quality beef. That steak looks medium not medium rare but it may just be the filming.
That’s what I said.
ribeye is my favorite steak. cooked on a grille over fire yummy
I'm glad that you had a wonderful time here in the United States and Millie, I want to wish you a Happy Mother's Day
The way you get a juicy meat is to sear the outside before cooking it to taste, the searing will seal most of the juices inside.
Glad you enjoyed!!!
Thank you 🙏 both of you ☝️very brave 👏👏👏I never talk while I’m eating 🍖🍗I like ❤your reaction 👍🎥👋☮️
My favorite is the rib steak and like it medium rare. I pan fry it in a stainless steel heavy bottom French saute pan. The idea is to not over cook the steak. Salt,pepper and garlic powder both sides. Add a little olive oil to the pan, add the steak cook for 5 minutes, flip the steak and lower the heat and cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the steak to let it rest for 5 minutes . Using temperature thermometer for medium rare the temperature should be 54-57°C. That is for 1 inch or 3cm thick steak. I do the same thing for pan frying a Hamburger although I grind or mince my own meat. I'll grind a chuck steak and a sirloin steak together. Make large 1 inch patties and pan fry the same way as the steak. The left over ground meat I make patties to freeze to use later. Have a wonderful day
