- Going to a steak house is great but it's also gonna cost you a pretty penny. I say we can do this full steak meal completely homemade, on a tight budget with results that are... dare I say better?

This proves once and for all that the real secret to fine restaurant dining isn't technique, fancy plating or fancy schooling, but just, butter. Lots and lots of butter.
People seriously under estimate the amount of salt and butter restaurants use. It's not helped by online recipes trying to not seem like the calorie counts are crazy high
And salt 🧂 🤦🏼♀️
this is what I do
mhmmm
As you point out the oodles of us who've worked in kitchens know (and kids figure out) 'it's all about the fat' - esp freshest and fullest fat ie non-chemicalised - prob not a real word but who isn't disappointed and annoyed when fries have been added to a fryer with recently added cleaning chemicals?
"But Cheaper Thanksgiving" now that November is coming around? (or just Holiday meals in general)
Dammit you stole my idea! I love this idea. I know you can't avoid the cost of the Turkey, really but with sides and desserts..? Theres gotta be ways yo cut corners.
Haha I just wrote down the same thing without checking the comments first 🙈
Poop
@@beautybard actually in my region we have a supermarket named shoprite and after spending 400 during the few months leading up to christmas you get a free turkey or ham, so maybe other supermarkets have great deals like this
He is doing a thanksgiving episode. He mentioned it in his instagram live video where some guys waited one full year to remind him.
That’s a very classy way to eat 2 sticks of butter in one meal
Why doesn't this have more upvotes
@@joe-eg3mk because this isn’t Reddit.
Omg yes. I got a cardiovascular episode just watching.
Nothing wrong with two sticks of butter
I think he's from Texas so cut him some slack. For real though food at restaurants taste good because they do this. RIP me who just found out I'm lactose intolerant
I just wanted to say Thankyou. Im in no way someone that cooks I just can't, don't know how. Followed this video to the T and made a dinner for me and my wife for our 12 year anniversary and it blew her mind how good it was. Thank you sir.
nice man, gotta use another recipe from josh for this year! happy early 13th!
@@toomuchdog1503 Thankyou sir. Most definitely will be looking for another fancy recipe.
@@Nicaprince89 if you can make this that means you can cook. a lot of people who are good cooks use other peoples recipes. if you do that youll eventually start doing less measuring and just eyeballing, understanding flavors better and coming up with your own recipes or modifying other peoples recipes. you can do it
This is the type of comment I love to see! Keep it up, man! Now try it again, but with some changes that you might think will work! Start being creative, and don't hesitate to experiment with different spices, veggies, and sauces!!
I’d really like to see a series “but quicker” for those quality weeknight meals. I’m getting tired of my current repertoire.
Same, I don't have much time to cook for myself every night but I also want to stop eating so much takeout
seconded.
yes!! i have tons of homework but i also gotta make full meals and i don’t have time for both
It helped me to do prep work on Sundays. Between working 50 hours a week and doing school work online, ate out A LOT. But I started doing prep work Sunday. Any rice, vegetables, etc got cooked Sunday. Meat got cooked Sunday and refrigerated or frozen. Then when I wanted it I just reheated and/or cooked pasta. Or do soups/chili. They always taste better after a couple days in the fridge. Lastly, I used an app called Mealime to build grocery lists. I pick the meals I want, it makes me a grocery list, and I've got however many meals I picked ready for the week.
Love this idea!
But Cheaper: Seafood? Could do anything really: Lobster, crab, those cajun boils, etc

You definitely ate at Perry's. The "sauce" on the asparagus was actually the same butter they put on the steak. It's a compound butter with Bleu cheese, romano cheese, garlic, and few other seasonings.
But Cheaper: Sushi? Might not be in your wheel house but I have faith in you!
He's done sushi before but I dont think it was a but cheaper. Also he worked in a Japanese restaurant for years so it's definitely in his wheel house
Edit: just rewatched the sushi episode. it's not a but cheaper and it's a little complicated. Maybe he could do a but simpler or something.
i would like if everybody liked your comment so he can see it

I challenge you to try to make a nice meal only using ingredients from the 99 cent store. I bet that’ll be difficult. Pretty sure some locations literally have $1 steaks.
I wouldn't eat a 1 Dollar steak, that can't be meat.. from a species I want to eat ;)
Esp. this vid was to show that compared to other food prepared in restaurants it's easier to re-create at home. Much cheaper and easier as the main ingredients are very simple, meat and vegetables. At the same time the meat quality has it's limit on the low end. Very cheap meat needs more work and for a steak there are limits.
@@nopenope1 I can guarantee that meat is rat
@@windoak2113 I had something like that in my mind when writing my post ;)

Based on Guga foods a $1 hunk of meat could be made edible by marinading in blended whole pineapple.
It's not as good as a normal steak but it's cheap.
I made this tonight for a solo Christmas Day dinner. IT WAS DIVINE! I especially loved the veggies in the steak pan. I had some carrots and turnips on hand. They turned out so delicious!
This looks doooope. Btw caesar salads are always pricey esp when you add a protein. I'd love to make a good caesar salad at home for not $18...
Great point! And yes, you can make it for like 5 dollars easily and delicious.
But Cheaper: Ben And Jerry’s, it’s like 7 bucks a pint!

My local grocery store (North Carolina - USA) has sales every so often where it's 2 for $6. I just stock when they're cheap.
@@durial702 really?! For me in CT it’s like 7-12$!!
The "But Cheaper" for that is Blue Bell. $6 for a half gallon and at least as good (and better IMHO) than Ben and Jerry's.

I was looking for this comment before I made it myself
@@joejasat ahahahhah, it was an easy one, got to admit. But, I got it as soon as I heard the man itself say that.
Me here in Tennessee going to Longhorn & paying $60ish for myself, husband and two kids 👀 Is Longhorn a 5 star steakhouse? No. Does it taste good? Yes.
I don't think there's been a single episode of but cheaper I haven't thoroughly enjoyed. I love that you can take basic every day ingredients and make something look so fancy. It's a really great way to reach out to an audience that can't always get their hands on some of the over the top ingredients you always use. Im not in anyway way shape or form trying to have a go at you with this comment but I find this series is more relatable to me than some of your other videos and I legitimately get so pumped for every episode of but cheaper that shows up in my subscriptions.
Requests for "But Cheaper":
- Lobster (whole, bisque, tail, whatever)
- Sushi (I know you did this in a regular vid, but some cheaper cuts of usable fish would be nice)
- Truffle (A video about how to get truffle flavor into food without buying actual truffles / explain when truffle works in a dish)
- Beef Wellington (Again, I know this was a regular vid, but if there is *any* possible cut of meat that could be substituted for the tenderloin, tell us. I drop over $100 every Christmas for our annual Wellington. I like doing it, but it is 'spensive.)
- Wine (What are your favorite budget wines? What is the difference between expensive wine and cheaper wine? You could make this 3 whole episodes covering red, then white, then sparkling.)
- Oysters (Is there a cheap way to get delicious, fresh oysters?)
- Fine dining. (Could you recreate something from E.M.P. or Alinea or wherever at a much cheaper price point while maintaining the presentation? Say.... the floating taffy balloon?)
- Spices. (What is a good substitute for saffron? Or other expensive spices?)
Hope this helps. Love the series.
Beet Wellington? WE KNOW IT´S YOU, DWIGHT

When you watch this knowing that $250 is your monthly food budget. Heh.
I thought the same thing... and I never spent 50$ in one meal
$250 is probably 2 or 3 months for me lol.
I eat a lot of chicken, rice, and frozen veggies
Yeah, is not enough
It really depends on where in the world you live, $250 can mean a very tight budget or a comfortable lifestyle.
I’ve never spent $50 on steak and potatos either. I get the cheaper thin cut steaks (mostly because I like well done and I’d rather just get the thinner steaks that won’t turn to shoe leather than spend a shit ton on a T-bone)
This video is a treasure, Joshua! I love steaks but I often feel that it's too much for my budget! Will try this one soon with my hubby.
How about making that 1000 dollar ice cream (you know, the one featured in Food Insider, said to be the most expensive ice cream in the galaxy) but cheaper?
Your tip is 52x more than how much my lunch costs where I live.
At a fancy restaurant.. it's usually 15% of ur bill that u leave as tip. So if u spend 220, ur tip shud be about 30

you should try the channel Entertaing with Beth
she is doing a whole series on Thanksgiving dishes that are fancy and budget friendly th-cam.com/video/qf7azPxci8g/w-d-xo.html
Get a ham from Costco instead of turkey! Mashed potatoes are cheap and easy, and roast some carrots. Ask friends to bring rolls, drinks, sides.
stuffing is literally vegetables and bread. pick your favorite protein. chicken, ham, turkey, steak, pork loin, whatever. just cook it properly. mashed potato is cheap. cranberry sauce from scratch is a zillion times better and only costs a few bucks to make. you can make decent gravy with a handful of herbs and a box of chicken stock if you don't want to make it from scratch. depending on how much you want to spend on your protein I'm sure you could do an entree and three sides thanksgiving for under 50$. Find some recipes that look good and give it a go! It's easier than you think!

bro I was thinking the same thing
you’d just walk towards josh again..
Don't worry, he was just being sarcastic lmao

Thank you, my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this dinner.
Greetings from Jacksonville Florida USA. I love my Weber grill, but I have learned that your pan technique gets a superior result, especially in a cast iron skillet. The sides look perfect, too. I'll pick up some New York strips at Costco and try the whole thing for guests soon. Thanks for showing us this! We're retirees, so our steakhouse days are behind us - especially given this wild inflation.
50 dollar tip: *exists*
Me: *laughs in Finnish* is this a joke?
Were you also amazed at how much things cost there?? Even living in the UK, I could make this meal for at least 25% less.
Me too. I think I’m America it is normal to leave a 20% tip. But as a European it seems absurd to tip 50 bucks
Severs make trash income because of US labor laws. Tipping is expected because servers work hard and deserve to make a livable wage. Unfortunately, the US isn't interested in giving a livable wage to those that serve us food.
This blew my mind, $50 tip?! The hell, in the UK that could pay for an entire meal for a couple in a restaurant
@@callmeval3542 Yep. Restaurant owners love the absurd pressure that is put on the customer to make up for their unwillingness to pay their staff a living wage.

Kudos Joshua, between you and Babish my cooking has been transformed from a dull tasteless chore to fun, challenging and damn tasty! Thank you so much for producing your content!
Joshua paid $50 for the tip to the waiter, and $250 for a meal that could be made with $50. The waiter probably went home and made the exact same meal with a smug smile on their face.
The waiter has to split that tip with the bus boy and the bartender. I’m sure he was happy probably not smug. The meal only cost 50$ to make and he paid the restaurant $200.00 for it, the owner of the restaurant probably has a smug look on his face. Maybe.
@@johannaa6986 nah, they guy with the smug on the face was the landlord of the restaurant, because this is the largest cost of any urban restaurant these days, than comes labor and only than comes produce.
Indeed. 🤣
@@johannaa6986 really you’re paying more for the expertise of the chefs and (hopefully) good service more than the food.
@@johannaa6986 where I'm from waiters don't tip out from their tips, but their sales. It's usually around 2% of the cost of food, so they're only tipping out under 5$ for that meal. If there's a bar, you may tip out the bartender as well on alcohol sales.

Their "drinks" likely weren't a pint of budweiser. Usually a quality craft beer at a steak house (they frequently brew their own) is gonna prob be ~$8, and any mixed drink is gonna be 10-15. Expensive yes but it's in line with how much cocktails go for at medium or high end places.

As a foreigner tips to me seem like donations for the waiters/waitress

Best comment here 👏
For all the guys who dont get why he tipped 50 dollars. Its the US. 20% tip is normal. In the us there is somthing called tipped minimal wage. Which means you get less then minimum wage, because it is estimated that the tipps will get you there. This is a horrible thing. So please, no matter where you live, tipp well. The guys and girls have a tuff job with long hours and really deserve it.
sry for my english btw. :P
I have difficulty listening to north American accents for too long but Josh's accent is so cute I jump from video to video nonstop. Also the recipes, and content in general, are so fun and inspiring... I love it.

Respect on the tip Joshua. And wow...For 250$ in the Netherlands you can eat at an 1-Michelin star restaurant 😅
Or do groceries for a month 😅
He used to work at a potentially Michelin worthy restaurant that cost less than $250 for two. The real prob is that steakhouses are the biggest scam. They're expensive, fancy venues for American diners too afraid to experience new and interesting flavors.
Eating out in the NL is wildly expensive though, compared to like a 6 dollar burrito.

Fancy Salmon Dinner. Love your videos!
I admit that eating out was always my 'entertainment'. When I was in Europe, I went to a Michelin starred restaurant in Italy and spent well over $150 on just myself (by myself) and coworkers were making fun of me. But when I asked them how much they spent on video games this month, alone, and pointed out, I don't play video games, they shut up. I'm a fair cook--by no means on your level, but I could probably plate this up and it would taste as good as a steak house. However, I can't recreate the service, ambiance, atmosphere, the Experience. Sadly for us all, prices are rising beyond my entertainment budget, and we're all going to be more than grateful for your excellent "cheaper" tutorials. Thanks for being there for us during this difficult time
As a gamer and foodie, I can say with confidence that video games are a much more effective way of getting a lot of entertainment for the least money than eating at fine dining restaurants. If your co-workers are spending $150 a month on games then they're doing it wrong. They're either buying a lot of AAA games or worse, wasting large amounts of money on pay-to-win garbage games which unfortunately some people are dumb enough to do. There are plenty of cheap indie games on Steam that can provide many hours of fun and the right AAA game can provide hundreds of hours of gameplay for $60 (or less if you catch it on sale).
As suspected, the secret is humongous amounts of butter we usually don't use at home. I'M IN!
i always add butter to my stuff and think that i'm using a lot, then i get proven wrong, MORE BUTTER
That's the secret to restaurant food

Amazing! As you already demonstrated in another video, one thing that it's absurdly expensive in restaurants but can be made at home ridiculously cheap is fresh pasta with the fanciest sauces you can imagine. Take aglio e olio as an example: flour, water, olive oil, garlic, parsley, chilli flakes, salt, pepper, and there you go, an insanely good dish for like what, 2 dollars?
I love how Josh makes a really hearty fancy meal and eats it with no utensils. 🤣😂

Josh, I made those mashed potatoes for dinner tonight, and my family went crazy over them. They’re absolutely the creamiest potatoes ever. And so perfect for a thanksgiving side. They’ll be on my list to fix that holiday.

@@smally8499234 you're still paying them, you're just paying the restaurant first.
@@NotKimiRaikkonen Yeah but it's a set amount, there's no guess work with the tip, what you see on the receipt is what you get and from the looks of it it's cheaper overall before they even tip.
I literally could watch just a B roll of Josh cutting Chives.
Enjoyed your video. I do a lot of cooking at home for the same reason-you can get higher quality ingredients for the money that you’re saving. But also understand that much of the restaurant’s cost is for labor and overhead.
This is why I got into cooking as I honestly dont mind shelling out some dough for some nice food but I just personally think that alot of high end restaurants make pretty basic foods for what it's worth when I could invest that same amount of money into far higher quality foods and come up with a much better meal.
But Cheaper: Laotian Pork Belly/Tofu Laap with Sticky Rice. Good amount of technique required.
With some light gaang of some sort to make the meal complete.
Thank you very much for the scoop man. I always struggle making a decent seafood dinner (usually fish steaks or shrimp) and end up eating out so I can have seafood cooked well. Can you do a nice seafood/shrimp dinner please?
above all else, i appreciate the fact you are a good tipper.

So, was the only purpose in eating at that steakhouse, which we didn’t see, to have a $250 meal that’s technically a work expense? I see you...
