      Hello Guga! Guys, I'm Aussie..and you know that means BBQ awesomeness. I'd like to do a video for/with you... Just for your channel. I'll show you how we make a BBQ from a 44gal drum, start to finish. Welding, legs, air vents, full supports, removable racks, full flu with brake... rotisserie added also. All I'd like is a A5 wagyu steak in return...to cook on it in a follow up. I can show you one I made previously. Im concentrated on beer keg fire pits, BBQ, and smokers now. Moving house, so on the back burner, but close. Have 8 going atm.
      Let me know if we can email if you are interested

    I'd go with Angel's because the other steak looked unevenly cooked. Angels looked perfectly medium rare on each side throughout. However, I would like to try the elotes since I've never tried it authentic before.

    • @DeathBYDesign666
      @DeathBYDesign666 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Maumau's steak was rare on one side medium on the other. Angel did the right thing when he pan basted it in the cast iron then smoked it indirect. The bacon was too much and it probably didn't help to get an even cook in the middle, a good filet should stand on its own.

      It’s cause its still hot and the sliced pieces together heats up the steak. Hard to explain but I see it sometimes when I cut steak and the sliced pieces are next to each other but still medium rare though and his was cooked right.

  • @james.randorff
    @james.randorff 2 ปีที่แล้ว +115

    TL;DR: Angel
    Judging by my mind’s palate, I would prefer Angel’s. It highlights the taste of the beef (even though filet mignon is probably the least beefy tasting cut of beef) with the seasonings and cooking method.
    I am not a fan of the bacon-wrapped filet, and then cooking it in bacon grease further masks the beef flavor. If I want an ultra-tender cut of meat with a bacony flavor, I’ll sear up some pork belly.
    All of that being said, both Angel and Mau Mau did a fantastic job. Loved seeing the friendly rivalry and camaraderie between them. I’m gonna be trying out that Elote recipe soon!
    Great video!

    • @briang.2218
      @briang.2218 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yeah, i think that in the side dish maumau wins bc angel put that coke on the potatos and made him lose against the elotes for not keeping it traditionally. But then with the stakes angel did it simple and traditonally and for me, he won bc of the stake, but damn it was close

    Hey Guga! It's me again. I'm the same guy that brouy you the jerk seasoning idea to beef and now I'm back with another one.
    I'm going to recommend to you a sauce that goes perfectly with an extremely sharp cheddar cheese. This sauce I believe has enough acidity that you should be able to use a tenderizer and even dry age. The flavor however is phenomenal. It is called "BRANSTON PICKLE". This sauce has a lovely flavor that I'm confident you'll enjoy. Please try this out and let me know how it works out for you.

    Maumau - 9
    Angel - 9.5
    The points are lowered from 10 because the Elote beat the potatoes. Angel's execution for the steak was perfect, but the potatoes brought his points down. Steak is the headliner though. So, Angel took the win. Love the channel, and you guys are always funny and entertaining.
