Agreed. I've seen others do the 360 cutting of skin & tendons right close to the foot, and then push all that meat up. You get a meatier lollipop with less waste.
We use chicken lollipops a lot, specially in Ramadan, our butcher told us to make slight cut on the end of the stick and bring down the meat instead of separating it, so that you have more meat on the lollipops. 😰🤭
Instantly subscribed .Ain't no Way bruh 20 years ago I thought I'd be looking at Chicken prep videos. My sons 6/4 don't eat based on necessity it's comfort. when I was a kid the tendon the cap/gristle......... 😭That was cherished a bonus serving of collagen
This was the best cooking tutorial I've ever seen. Nobody shows the precise location of every cut like you do. They just tell you what they're doing with a wide angle shot of them doing it and you just have to figure it out. You actually hold up every cut, with the knife basically an arrow pointing to what exactly needs to happen. I hope you make more because I'm sure you know how to cook some shit.
(Chef Alex ) Hey guys, thanks for all the love on this video. Ive been so busy with the restaurant, I didn’t realize the video blew up. I will be making more for TH-cam! See you all soon.
No need to thank us🤷🏾♀️, we thank u‼️ we just appreciate your tutorial....very precise & straight to da point....btw idk if I would make these especially a whole Lotta them...seems sorta like a waste & hassle but seems like u know what you're doing so....😏
That cutting board is giving me anxiety, my guy. 😅 Did you put it in the dishwasher or submerge in the sink water? I've never seen a board warp in the middle like that.
Looks great, but I don't love how much good meat was removed in the process of cutting the skin and tendons. That technique of cutting the skin lower on the bone certainly makes it easier to get the tendons out, though. I may try it if I am using very meaty legs.
When you look at all the trimming it seems excessive, but per serving your not missing much. It’s worth -20 calories for the peace of mind when eating, no more being careful with your bites and picking tendons out of your teeth. Just chicken and bone, it really enhances the eating process.
I love how straight to the point you are! I thought I was doing it wrong because it was a bit of a hassle, but thanks top you, I know I was doing it right. 2 down 10 to go lmao 🤣 Subbed
You can literally do whatever you want with the chicken scraps lol. I specifically prepared the chicken in this video for a specific look I was going for , for this particular dish. I discarded of the chicken scraps , simply because I FELT like it. Could I have used them for something else ? Yes ...but , I didn’t feel like doing so lol. It’s fine, I’ll donate the 2oz of chicken scraps next time.
Lmao you shouldn’t have to explain yourself like this. You are doing a favor for folks by showing us and they gotta give you shit about it. Thanks bro I’m gonna do this tonight!!
Thanks Brother, Um making These for New Year's Day. Along with some Other chicken dishes. They can take it or leave it! You did an Excellent job explaining how to prepare it! The heck with the internet Police! That Lil bit of scraps ain't gonna hurt if you throw it away! Ughhh Ppl, get a life! Focus on the Technique! Not the scraps! Ghee My Knee
This video is insanely informational. You articulate very directly. I appreciate this video very much. From South Florida much love and thanks. I'm about to kill it with this butcher work.
real questions because I wanted to try these lollipop drumsticks, but like... the rest of that chicken meat gets discarded??? i feel like you're left with less chicken then how you started...
You don’t have to discard the rest of the chicken scraps if you don’t want to. You can use the scraps for multiple recipes. This technique is for presentation purposes and I personally do mine this way for a specific look. I’ll post the full recipe soon , so everyone can see the finished results.
This process really only takes 30 seconds if that and very minimal cutting. Slide your thumb under the smaller section (after 360 cutting of course) and pop the meat off the joint. That small portion should come right off as one whole piece and is salvageable. Just flip it back over the joint before completely detaching and slide it down with the rest of the meat.
@@ravenjade4540 I agree with you! But the reality of it is that me a “ Chef” in my owe home would probably not keep them for stock less making soup right afterwards
They have a lollipop chicken restaurant here in Chicago in Albany Park. Really don't understand the concept, it takes much longer to prep and it's wasting part of the chicken 😒
Not at all how I lollipop…I make sure to cut every tendon and ligament out from the bottom. And push the meat all the way into itself, and then wrapping the skin over the pop to trap juice and flavor
Love ya man but.... you need to cut those nails. Like, to work in a kitchen, a brigade thats worth its salt, those nails would not work. Thank you for the tutorial sir.
Please never prepare chicken on a wooden cutting board, unless that's all you ever use that cutting board for. The bacteria from the chicken soaks into the wood and can cause cross-contamination with other food.
That's a tourne knife not a pairing knife!! No gloves, you dont clean chicken, that can cause food poisoning. Terrible tutorial, bad hygiene and you wasted too much meat and presentation would be unappealing.
For starters, it’s a curved pairing knife. A ‘’ tourne ’’ knife is paring knife with a curved/bird’s beak blade. A simple google search would’ve cleared this up for you. Second, gloves are not required for preparing foods that are not ‘’ ready to eat’’, meaning cooked and ready to eat. Serve safe class teaches this and I’m well aware of how to maintain safe food practices. This isn’t my first rodeo. I , the person who paid for this chicken, can do as I please with the chicken scraps. I’ll post the full tutorial and let the audience decide how appealing the presentation is or isn’t .

My grandma would kill me wasting all of that meat. But I love the video you did great. Thankyou
You can keep the extra meat though...
A My mom to oooo..... 😁
Agreed. I've seen others do the 360 cutting of skin & tendons right close to the foot, and then push all that meat up. You get a meatier lollipop with less waste.
All the cut off just put in Ziploc & freeze for stock later or even better make a sauce for your lollipop chicken.
Yh just make a chicken stock with it few onions celery carrots ect salt pepper herbs then your good to boil siev and freeze
We use chicken lollipops a lot, specially in Ramadan, our butcher told us to make slight cut on the end of the stick and bring down the meat instead of separating it, so that you have more meat on the lollipops. 😰🤭
I don't understand. Is that different than what happened in the video?
@@LetsGoFlyers2011 only in the sense that the video is wasting some meat by not cutting more to the foot of the bone and not bringing the meat down.
I do it the same way you do.
Try pork chops. U will love it
@@M_Moh256 💀he's talking about ramadan
Wow that is crazy! So labor intensive. Thanks for enlightening us.
Mesmerising voice! Thanks for the video, looks like a tough process but worth the effort 👌
You made it look easy...but it is work to do this! I've done this before...and they are nice to do for kids.

Very good presentation, it looks so easy now thank you
Cool video. Thanks. I love the transparency🤣🤣 It is a must with today's society

Great video man..!
great tutorial! really easy to understand. love it
Looks great 👨🏾🍳👌🏾
Killin me with the Internet Police! Always someone that knows more.

I love my Mercer knife set. Never thought to use the tourney knife to clean the chicken though.
simple and informative
Ok Papi, I'm trying this today. I had the meat store cut me some Lollipop pork chops today too.
Thank you sir for the instruction! Keep on cooking
Thank you for teaching me @Papi Cuisine! I’m going to make these today’s for my godkids and their friends today! Please be blessed. #newsubscriber

Save it and use it in a soup/stock my man!
He could have cut it a little lower, but there's really not much meat there. That being said, I like skin

I came from IG. Your food always looks deliciously seasoned. Keep up the good work.
thank you !!!
Thanks G double G? Lol

Love you instagram! Amazing foods! Pure talent hands down!💯❤️🥰
Thank you!!!
Thanks! And it makes for a lot of scraps for the stock pot!
Bloody ripper mate! Thank you 👍
love is love chef
Solid
ohhh you make this look so simple 😩
Pretty straightforward and honest. Thanks!
Thanks alot helps great much! Grazie Mucho
Very nice. Subbed
I've always wondered how chicken lollipops were made ...thanks.
Very helpful. Thank you! Man the internet police are pathetic.
Thank you for this

Looks very presentable. After stripping the tendon away, I just go through the bone with a knife. It's less hassle. But I like how your way looks.
I love that internet police 🚔🤣😂
I personally would use a new pair of pliers to pull the ends off lol ... But that's just me
real questions because I wanted to try these lollipop drumsticks, but like... the rest of that chicken meat gets discarded??? i feel like you're left with less chicken then how you started...

One I saw was a tiny capital T it was like a T bone inside the split chicken drumstick
Thanks!
Excellent video to show why you never put a wooden cutting board in the dishwasher.
What did you do to the rest of the meat that was on its?
So sad.... Scalping those drums...
Anyone know of any special scissors/tool to cut around large quantities of drumstick tendons?
Thanks bro!
Thank you
Celebrate your internet popo that make us rich 😊
A grooved wooden cutting board that's warped and damaged will make your family sick. Throw the whole thing away and start over.
Papi we need more videos on the channel
We need more videos pls ❤️👍🏾
Love the knives, love the idea behind the lollipops drumsticks! But looks like a waste of chicken what’s been cut away.
Except most chefs know you can keep those scraps for stock.
@@ravenjade4540 I agree with you! But the reality of it is that me a “ Chef” in my owe home would probably not keep them for stock less making soup right afterwards
Bro wya
“Hey guys, I’m gonna show you the least proper way to lollipop a drumstick”
Looks like it can be very time consuming!
Yes lol absolutely
Never understood why do you cut off a perfectly good part of chicken
Good video but that's a lot of wasted meat. Chicken felt violated.
If TH-cam still had the dislike button i wouldn’t have wasted time on this.
This isn't lollipop chicken, it's a frenched drumstick...
They have a lollipop chicken restaurant here in Chicago in Albany Park. Really don't understand the concept, it takes much longer to prep and it's wasting part of the chicken 😒
Kawhi Leonard?
Use a paper towe to remove the peices oh don’t want . Much cleaner and easier
I'm a meat cutter for a small chain.. WiseWay 20 years.
Wtf did you just do to that stick 🧐
I am not understanding the point? Seems like adding extra work for no reason.
Learn to use the knife
Not at all how I lollipop…I make sure to cut every tendon and ligament out from the bottom. And push the meat all the way into itself, and then wrapping the skin over the pop to trap juice and flavor
Love ya man but.... you need to cut those nails. Like, to work in a kitchen, a brigade thats worth its salt, those nails would not work. Thank you for the tutorial sir.
So hard to cut
you ever been to prison?
Please never prepare chicken on a wooden cutting board, unless that's all you ever use that cutting board for. The bacteria from the chicken soaks into the wood and can cause cross-contamination with other food.
get a pair of plyers and rip that shit off 👍
Please don't listen to No Nothing internet Popo...I'm ServSafe Cooked ready to eat NEEDS gloves raw...your choice
Your wasting chicken, i would just slide all that meat up to the top without cutting off😮
The chicken is “clean?” Raw chicken is never clean
Way too much meat removed
Seems wasteful unless you got animals. But thank you! This has become a new trend lol looks like the trend is a little late to your technique!
What a waste of so much chicken meat..there are much better ways to do it and it stands up after you make the ball
Not straight to the point at all bro went on a rant first thing
Lot of waste.
Too much talking 👎
Mute was invented decades ago...
