I love how we are all Guga fans too
yeah, Guga for president!😂
Who the fuck is that
@@Adrian-zu6tm ur mom haha rekt
@@sonito9491 Sam for pres
@@Adrian-zu6tm It's a dude that makes cooking videos as well, but he does some crazy experiments from time to time. Actually, most of the time
If you add garlic and onion to the pineapple in the processor it will make the steak much better tasting.
Psychological Nudity ur quite salty for someone giving all us a good tip
Psychological Nudity Chill
I am totally going to try this. Adding garlic and onion has never turned out bad IMO!
@@ukrichie Apparently you have never tried ice cream with onions and garlic...
Datoda depends on the flavor of ice cream 🤷🏻♂️😂
man looks like hes from the bee movie
This is totally and utterly true. I hope Sam doesn't take offense. I'd take it as a compliment. #BeeVibes
jewish?
He sounds almost exactly the same as that actor and looks very similar too
Lmao wtf i never thought about it😂
HahahzhahaHHHHH
I always love how he just grabs the whole paper towel role to wipe his face
I do too. I thought I was the only person who did that, but obviously not.
Signature move 😂
Yea and triggers me and everyone in the room everytime 🤣
😂
“That was one hour. I can’t imagine what more would do.”
Guga Foods: Am I nothing to you?

I know it doesn't look good now...
@@wuphat but watch this
For those that don’t get it, the Guga Foods channel did the pineapple experiment and let it sit in the marinade for 1, 6, 16 and 24 hours.

Sam the Guga guy
I am glad you noticed.
Idk whether to be disappointed or to just accept it.
Yeah, very original...,
I was disappointed when I got the notification. I’m hoping it’s good, and a little different when I finally watch it.
I just started the video.. he didn't credit or even say he saw this somewhere else? This is the exact same concept and he didn't even do it right. Wow. This is very disappointing
I've used pineapple for years as a tenderizer on cheaper cuts of steak and venison. Works great. After about an hour I would add some worcester sauce, olive oil and some garlic and put back in fridge for an hour. Take it out and let sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.
Actually, the core has more bromelain in it which is what makes stuff tender and most people throw it away. Eat the fruit and use the core for tenderizing meat. Win win.
I used pineapple 🍍 and it broke the protein alright. It didn't taste like steak. Texture was nasty
You want to use the skin too.
@@shandip78 You marinated for to long. You don't need to do it for super long. Definitely not 24 hours or something.
After experimentation, Guga said 2 hours is the sweet spot for the pineapple tenderization, definitely not more than 2-3 hours or it starts to get weird and over like 6-7 hours it just gets nasty/inedible.
Guga even says that the skin has more of that bromelian so just using the skin and core would be enough for 1 steak maybe.
“I know it doesn’t look good now, but watch this”
Lhh
Guga

Daaaa da da da da da da da da da da da da da daaaaaaa
Using pineapple is a hassle. It is faster and cheaper to soak the steaks in a bottle of Perrier with lemon or perrier with lime for one hour and you don't need to rinse them before using a rub or marinade of your choice.
Guga did a good video on this too....
Randy Wolner better video lol
he’s really taking guga’s ideas
@BMW W. do I smell hoes mad?
@love ps3 a guy who cooks steak for a living
My mouth watered when you put the sandwich together. Then I fee like I could taste it when you took a bite! Great video thanks
Love this mans style of cooking! Addicted and inspired 👩🏽🍳🙌🏾❤️

How does this guy cook outside without being assaulted by swarms of bugs?
Obvious bruh
In San Diego we don't really have bugs like that. Yeah you get some flys here and there but nothing extreme
Flies like assholes
He must not be an asshole.
A dick maybe, but an asshole, no!
It’s California , they mostly make their way east
I love your kitchen, and your videos are always enjoyable to watch and dribble over lol
Started watching your channel back in March when I wanted to cook my own steaks. Your reverse sear method on ribeyes is amazing and perfect for my small apartment kitchen. Been a huge fan ever since! Just about a year ago I was eating bland chicken and broccoli college meal preps that I had to drench in soy sauce in order to eat it. Now I’m cooking at least 5 nights a week with my girlfriend thanks to all the techniques and ideas on your channel! We always look forward to your videos and I have told my friends and coworkers who are just starting to cook to check out your channel and it’s been such a great experience looking forward to cooking and sharing that passion with many others! Your channel has truly changed my life for the better!
Also you kickstarted my interest in cocktails thanks to your podcasts and social media posts so I appreciate that too!
Thank you for everything Sam I hope to see you someday in beautiful San Diego!
So I think these videos did their job in helping someone be motivated and inspired to do home cooked meals, which is much healthier and will benefit you in the long run..
MORE EXPERIMENTS PLEASE!! I love this format, even if it didn’t turn out at first. Then taking the result of the experiment and then transforming into something totally different. Such an awesome episode!
The last 2 min is the best.... Love it
The paper towel wipe was the best. Just found you can not wait to start my binge. Great insight that this method can tenderize but do yourself a favor and buy better cuts. I'm off to recreate that sandwich.
Welcome home Toby!🤓
Guga Foods did the exact experiment before and even pretty much titled it the same...
would be good if he at least credited the idea he ripped off
@@d_shi But Guga did not invent the idea, he was testing it just like Sam is. No need to give credit.
@ryeguy01 it’s fine that he’s doing a similar experiment but the title makes it look like a direct ripoff
@@ryeguy01 taking the idea? fine. complete carbon copy? not fine.
Ppl have been tenderizing meats with pineapples and other fruits for who knows when. Stop hating. Guga ain’t the only cool on the web.
Instead of griping that there's no recipe (because I will keep this idea in my pocket) I've copied it here. Sam please Make America Cook Again by sharing recipes!

- Gugu has left the chat.
“I’ll give you a few minutes to take bets among yourselves” - LOL. Love this guy!
The grill smoke that comes up when Sam tries the second one is like an epiphany.
The moral of the story: The best way to eat a shitty cut of meat is to cut it up into small pieces and put it on a sandwich or mix it with rice/veggies.
Real moral of the story. Dont trust STCG with promotions or contests. He lied to his 1M subscribers about 2,000 bottles of oil being given away. Truth: hardly any bottles were given out - and they SCAMMED us and collected tens of thousands of peoples data.
Metro Music What?
@@metromusic5725 proof or?
@@darkjj1995 You want proof? 2000 bottles were advertised to be given away, ....yet no one in ANY video comments claimed they won, only TONS of people who lost w/ a crappy BOGO offer. You'd think a whopping 2k bottles some one would say they won. The company also never denied this either. Its a SCAM and now you know too.....
@@metromusic5725 That's not proof at all, that's a hunch. You may even be right, but you have no proof of it. Also you realize 2000 people is 0.2% of the 1 million subscribers? I'd actually be surprised if I did see a comment from a winner.
apparently, as you eat pineapple, the pineapple eats you, because of those tenderising enzymes. Those enzymes react with the proteins in your mouth when you eat pineapple which is why your tongue feels rough after eating pineapple. This means it's essentially breaking down your tissue and dissolving it, which is kinda eating you back. Fun fact!
That is a fun fact, never knew
Nonsense. The stomach lining is like a welding glove. It does not break down with dome pussy pineapple juice.
i have never felt that and i have eaten it almost every day for 1 year its my favorite fruit
@@blurzzmelo9547 i remember reading something about how the pineapples that are in like california or hawaii are different in some way and thats why they dont bite back, which makes sense for me because i live in california and love to eat pineapples and never felt like that, but I really dont know if its true or the science behind it at all
npilcher1 that’s why he said the tongue
where the hell u find a 1 dollar steak, ill eat them everyday
The dollar store ...and you wont eat it every day
Bad beef from terribly treated cows...
Its a chuck steak. They are horrible.
People says its bad and all but for me it's good if you treated it right
@@brianchadwell2 Chucks only bad if you cook it like a more expensive steak. It needs to be thick and slow cooked in braising, stews, slow cooked ragu's etc. And its great for grinding up fresh into burger meat because of the fat content, gives you a good ratio of fat to meat. The cuts shown here are too lean for burgers though
Can you start doing a series of challenges?
Such as: cooking for 5 with $10 or minimal ingredient meals
Elliot Batty agreed but that’s because I’m poor
"Astro" should be on a t-shirt 😂 or the Gardners haha
“Take bets amongst yourselves” ..but you showed at the beginning of the video that you CAN do it 😂 I love it
Great video, great meal. Thank you very much.
" I would like two of your cheapest steaks" LOL
I loved this episode!!! Actually, it's the pineapple "core" that has the amazing digestive enzymes, try marinating the steak with both the fruit of the pineapple and it's core and see what you get. Love each and every episode of your show - would not miss
Has anyone else noticed the dank garden in the upper right 😆👍🏽
I lost it at 2:18😂😂 I was not expecting him to say that oh my days bruv
So, a $5 pineapple can tenderize a $1 steak. Got it.
Rich Newell well the steak isn’t $1 it’s probably more like $8(and that’s a long shot it’s more like $14 but idk let’s say $8) and he’s showing you this as a example, in a normal situation you would want to make a lot of steak and use one pineapple making $60 worth of cheap steak into not so bad steaks with a $5 pineapple
Where do you live that pinapple is $5? Here in NJ its $2 or $3
Helder V The title says $1 steak, so...
@@Rich_Newell_ title is wrong, a one dollar stake would be like half a centimeter thick.
Rich Newell go to your local dollar tree and those are the steaks used
Can we have an episode where you and Max switch roles? 😂
Danny Nham great idea 😂
Awesome looking sandwich! You are making me hungry! Nice video. thanks
Love your videos bro, keep up the good work. 👍
4:45 that’s what I say every first of the month when the auto-pay for my bills hit lol!!!!
That’s hilarious 😂
Breakin out the ciabatta was a promise that the blue cheese fulfilled.
sam. I only found you a few days ago. I really like your videos. I love cooking really tasty dishes also. Congratulations on all of your subscribers... what an accomplishment!!!
Brilliant videos. Thank you.
Its like watching Guga's video, except more adds.
Who
Funnily Enough Gugas Video about it is gone..sadly
Ads? Huh.. not seen one of those in a while
And don’t forget more swearing here
Get with the “What have we learned?” t-shirts and merch.
I would prefer the meat cooked just a little more but that sandwich looked great.
Jack Arnold only u stated your opinion to be an asshole and they stated theirs simply because they were watching a cooking video and related it to their own life .... but just like your opinion doesn’t matter neither does mine🙄
seven rue ..... you just did the sane shit as him🤣🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️
Synful that was the point obviously it was sarcasm
seven rue uh no I’m saying you speaking your opinion you came at this dude for speaking his opinion while voicing your own
Synful ...that was literally the point hun
Fyi, the best part if the pineapple to use to break down the steak is actually the outer rind. Puree it just like you did with the edible part. Bonus; that leaves you the edible part to actually eat.
It doesn’t look that good right now, but watch this...
Guga did this already
Exactly what I was going to comment
The only thing i remembered is to use avocado oil
You're a brilliant cook! Thank you for all your tips 🙏 😊
My bucket list:
- get a flattop
- get a bucket
- eat more blue cheese
No
A buddy of mine in the Army was stationed in, ironically, Hawaii and he met a chef there who used kiwi instead of pineapple. We tried it back home here the same way you did it and it was amazing how tender it made the steaks!
Loved this episode!
Me watching from Canada: "Wait do I say processor differently?"
I think this is the only guy I trust to answer this question. He seems to be 100% honest and transparent and all his videos I appreciate that. #Success #SamTheCookingGuy #Cooking
So Guga is untrustworthy is what you're saying?
Apparently I've been using paper towels wrong my entire life
The quality of his videos are insanely good
Hell ya dude, we should see more blue cheese incorporated into the recipes, soo good
the guy glued the pineapple during the advertisment
yeah. And that knife is way too sharp compared to the ones actually sold.
The enzyme that breaks down the protein structure is called "Bromelain." It's actually much more concentrated in the skin, stem, and core than in the flesh itself, so you should do this a bit differently. You can just remove most of the crown, cut the whole pineapple into maybe 4 pieces, throw those in a good blender, and use that. You rinse it all off anyway, it's a lot easier, and it's a lot more effective. ALSO, you should let the tenderized steak sit on a rack for 30 minutes to 1 hour after you've rinsed and dried it. The reason it doesn't caramelize is because there's a lot of moisture left over.
Interesting...I guess that's why most of a pineapple is added to tacos al pastor. I thought it was an interesting experiment.
daphne pearce they use it for taste not the enzymes. The thin meat would turn to mush in like 30 minutes and taste horrible.
@@shracid7898 Oh! No wonder my al pastor tacos ended up tasting weird! lol! I love to cook but somethings I'll just leave to the experts.
Do you cook professionally? Just curious, you should have a channel lol. I'm new to cooking "semi-seriously" this year. Cut out fast foods and made a commitment to cook every day, or at least most days. I'm always looking for more knowledge. Thanks for the tip!
@@3KRacing Yeah. I've cut out fast foods too. The main thing I've done since watching STCG is upped my cooking game from boring housewifey cooking, you know, mushroom soup, dried onion mix, tossing everthing into a crockpot.....it tasted alright. Now I'm buying so much produce and good quality meats. I'm actually becoming a damn good cook, except for my knife skills. I have nice nails and I'm not about to take them off to cut vegetables at lightning speed. Priorities!(its a girl thing) So I take my time. It all gets prepped eventually.
I truly envy your cooking set up it's so beautiful
Sam, I almost checked out after you were done with the steaks. ..I'm glad I stuck around. Man! That looks great!
Your guys' camera quality is insane
What guga on TH-cam even better
I felt this - “ I’d rather have 1 good steak once a month vs 1 okay steak once a week.”
Well given the intro, ima go with...he can do it😂😂
Sam keep up the Awesome cooking humor, spectacular..!! You got some great recipes that can't be beat....
Pineapple steak on the right!!
Wait... Wrong channel
I must say as a chef my soul left my body, when he peealed that pineaplle without using a cutting bord and hitting the tabel with the knife.
Looks lovely! Well done. I can't boil water, but am beginning to learn from yourself and others like you on the internet. (You're funny with it too)!
I like the weed plants growing in the background lol
He literally took the whole paper roll to clean up his mouth 😂🤣 im dead laughing
that is one of his things. does it almost every episode.
There’s no color on the marinated steak because you didn’t get all the moisture off the surface.
Could be. ALso, when he slices them it appeared to me that the charred steak (cooked more medium rare) was on a hotter spot. THe pinepple steak had no char and was very rare.
I think he did actually
Is this Gugas burner acct?
It has no colour due to the chemical reactions made by the pineapple. It also foes not have a profound crust due to the same thing. When you try it yourself you will see.
Wow this is fantastic! Thank you for helping me make a wonderful meal!
Sam looked like robin William's in hook when he cut the coconut in half lol
I was under the impression that the majority of the tenderizing enzymes were actually in the rind of the pineapple? Anyone else?
Yes thats right. You need to blend everything but the leaves.
Papaya leaves do a better job but good luck finding those around here
@@ruststar Even the unripe papaya fruits themselves are great.
But when you do thin steaks it’s better to just use the flesh.
1. Less harsh
2. Better taste
Idk if you’ve ever had over tenderized steak but it’s horrible and tastes like beefy mud.
@@shracid7898 Yes, it's gross.
Love the vids, the sandwich looked epic, but HP ain’t no steak sauce. We use it for breakfasts. Typically in bacon sandwiches but goes good with sausage, beans, egg, hash browns etc.
Who gives a shit, hp tastes good on most meats...
As a kid I used to love the steaks at this buffett place that I later found out had started life as tough, maybe even "industrial" grade meat that had been tenderized.
i love your videos they always make me laugh
Sam: They are both cooked the same.
Everyone else: They are not cooked.
no conflict there. They are equally (not) cooked :P
you all eat your steak well done with ketchup then or??
@@burwho uh, no. medium rare. not rare.
@@byaialele5916 lo!l so medium rare like in the video? Still with ketchup?
@@byaialele5916 😂
“Look how juicy that is...” then proceeds to cut into them right after grilling
I think you are amazing!
What salt do you prefer?
THANK you for everything you sharing with us, it’s more help than I can express! 💐
What kind of grill are you cooking your red onions & mushrooms on. I need one of those.
I forgot to add that I made this one and it was one of the most delicious sandwich I ever have had! 😋
Definitely going to use pineapple this way so I can afford to have a real tender steak more often, thanks!
Try green papaya skin - process it to a paste and leave it on the steak for couple hours at room temp. It works much better than pineapple.
I thought you were cooking a Dollar General steak, I was praying for you
ToLiveAndDieInMyJs lol guga actually did that by dry aging it
I love how he wipes his face with the entire roll of pt lol
You had me at blue cheese red onions mushrooms!!!!!
That cow is still breathing jesus thats extra rare
Ron Jaradat that steak is still mooing for fucks sake~Ramsay
I'm guessing and hoping the camera made it look rarer than it was
Ron Jaradat looks gross 👎🏻
Daniel u can literally see that the fat hasn’t even been cooked it looks like how it would raw lmao
@@ulyssesguidi9960 hence the hoping...
"tiny pinch of salt" - Andre the giant sized hands
Gordon Ramsey school of cooking. 🤣🤣🤣
You went EXTRA on that sandwich! Well done, sir.
100% that he glued the pineapple down! Loved Sam from back in the day, was it on a PBS show? Happy to have found you again.
GUGA HAS ENTERED THE CHAT
Is it still a 1$ steak if you have to use 5-10$ worth of pinneapples?
Still would cost less than a good steak cut
A single pineapple is less than $3
The most exciting part of cooking is the actual cooking. Lol
After I watched many of your Videos, you got me man. Great videos. Even I live in Germany, you make me cook again :D. By the way, everyone have to learn to love blue Cheese ;).
Sam: Let's steal Guga content? LET'S DO IT!!!
LETS DO EEEEETTT
Alright Guga deadass stole Bon Appetit's content sooo what comes around goes around
@@emilygu1863 Wich one? I would like to check on that
@@alfredoloaiza1186 The every way to cook a ___, even the formatting of the title is exactly the same. Absolutely pathetic. Bon Appetit started the series and they completely stole the idea and tried to make it their own with doing a coffee iteration to follow it
@@emilygu1863 he just took a popular video format thought it looked cool and did his own take on it how's that stealing wtf.
The pineapple meat was MUCH MUCH MORE RARE.
Yes it was I’m glad i wasnt the only one who saw “pretty even” my ass that shit was raw asf 😂
LOL he was like....why does the pineapple steak have no color? Because you need to cook it longer!
Rixel you stfu weirdo that shit was raw asf you gone get sick
Yeah the pineapple steak was almost purple on the inside. Definitely raw in the middle. I like a rare steak, but that thing was raw.
it was straight up undercooked. Not even rare.
The cut was beautiful the key is follow-through and you did that's why it was a good clean cut
I must say it did look AMAZING!!!!!
