Evening all! Tonight I’m in Oklahoma (sorry about singing the song in the intro 😂) and I’m finally having a bash at a food challenge I’ve wanted to do for years… I hope you enjoy it, thanks as always for dropping by to watch and I’ll catch you for the next one in a few days! ❤️🧔🏻
This didn't even feel like a challenge, it felt like a love letter to an eatery and i'm so here for it. This was joy personified through chicken fried steak
@@calldragon seemed pretty clear to me. He is talking about how this was almost a commercial for the restaurant and how much Beard enjoyed a proper chicken fried steak. Most of the ones I've seen him eat have been poorly made.
The green beans are cooked in bacon fat, the steak is tenderized within an inch of its life, and the gravy is made with sausage. This is a truly southern meal with all the love and artery clogging good stuff we love to cook with. Great challenge!
Nobody adds sausage to Chicken Fry in Oklahoma. You are hallucinating lol. It's a cream and black pepper style, no sausage. I will bet you dollars to donuts at a dozen you have that part wrong. ;P
@@D71219ONE only for breakfast gravy never for chicken fry gravy. You may catch the occasional person putting onions in the oil and frying them before they make the pepper cream gravy out of it, but that's pretty rare too.
Yea, you are stretching it calling anything Oklahoma "truly southern". I mean, you are sitting on Texas and fingering New Mexico. Yuk. Anything west of the Mississippi Is probably contaminated by the unmentionable state. 🤮
He was so complimentary of the the food. Anything that still tastes good, even after you’ve consumed 8lbs of it, has to be sincerely delicious! If I ever get out that way, I’m going to be sure to try that place.
This is the difference from the previous greedy restaurant owners who cheated and gave him a lot more food than what is normally offered in their food challenge. This restaurant takes pride in what they do and it shows quite obviously. 😁👍🥰❤️ And even the t-shirts are in stock in multiple sizes. Huge props!
@@capomontoyab2160 I believe it's a fairly recent English breakfast challenge? They basically gave him a whole loaf of bread on the side that was no way part of the challenge...
@@capomontoyab2160 It was a recently posted challenge within the past month, I think. The challenge was allegedly overloaded with TONS of side meals. There was no way one person could finish it in a single sitting. It was ridiculous. It was so obvious to me anyway, with the slices of toast and huge bowl(s) of fries. Insane.
THIS is the kind of challenge/experience I love to see. Nice owners, great food, fair challenge (with no extra food added), just an all-round good time.
I'm happy to see how friendly everyone is in your videos. Many overseas people think Americans are rude or unfriendly. Not true ,most people are friendly and helpful and love to meet people from other countries.
I've been following for a while and to find out Beard even knew about the challenge shows a level of dedication to food eating I have rarely seen. This as a true connoisseur.
We just went to this place, it was LUCIOUS. I had a pair of the chicken-fried steaks, potatoes, biscuits, and green beans, then finished with a cinnamon roll and vanilla ice cream, and left completely satisfied.
Looks terrific… I was just wondering if the green beans were a little bit on the munchy side. They looked pretty well cooked. But I’m sure they were delicious.
@@mannyedwards2820 I mean, mushy green beans are their own thing, I guess… I mean, I’m not sure I want them to be crunchy, exactly… But maybe a shade passed al dente. I love my mother… She’s a very good cook. I think she’s OK with green beans. But some vegetables just get tortured into submission.
@@johnnyxmusic I don't disagree. I often get young thin green beans and saute them in garlic butter, then splash a little water and cover to steam, and serve them al dente. But where I live now they simmer green beans with salted pork for hours until the pork fat dissolves, and then add lots of black pepper and a little vineger, and serve them very tender. It's good -- it's just not the *only* way I like them.
U were kidding right? He talked about how good the food was several times throughout the video, and even at one point stated that it may be the tastiest food challenge he has ever done...
@@talisunepjamir-ux2knyeah my biggest regret was going to a fancy restaurant for my birthday.. we were all still so hungry we went to mcodnalds afterwards 😂
I've never seen such a likeable person. Suddenly I want to know everything about this guy, and how he has such a wonderful mentality. I don't even care about his super-human ability to eat, I'm more jealous of his mindset!
If you're traveling through Oklahoma this place is definitely worth the stop. I didn't do the challenge, but I did have their Chicken Fried steak and it was amazing. The green beans had no reason to be as good as they are.
@josephsills4755 don't feel bad. I lived in Oklahoma for 15 years and have never been there. I'm in Arkansas now, too, so I think I'll have to try it next time I'm traveling to OKC.
I will say, as a massive Chicken Fried Steak fan, you should mix it with the mashed potatoes, it just hits different with all those complimentary textures. You can never go wrong with it at a good southern restaurant. One of my favorite meals.
What was so enjoyable about this episode is watching how much you enjoyed it Adam, you deserve it after the amount of chips and mushrooms you fight through
As an okie myself it brings me joy seeing people from the UK try country gravy. All the vids I’ve seen they’ve never seen white gravy like that and they always love it wether it’s on biscuits or chicken fried steak which are my two favorite foods lol. If someone from here were to move to the Uk and open an American themed restaurant with these kinds of items I think they would make a killing!!💯
@@Beardmeatsfood I probably sound like a nutter to you by now, but I just wanted to again thank you for those kind words and hope you managed to see the “reaction” that i added on cameo. much appreciated good sir 🎉 (Nos the partner who ordered for Evan)
YO!!!!! BEARD ate at KENDALL'S?! Holy smokes! I live in Norman and I've eaten there a few times. They make a RIGHTEOUS chicken fried! Their normal-sized one will put a man to sleep so props to Beard for doing the food challenge. Thanks for stopping by in OK, Beard. Glad you enjoyed the meal!
All have done evil, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23) The penalty for sin is hell (Revelation 21:8). Because of Gods love for us Jesus Christ came down from heaven to take the punishment for our sin on the cross in which he was spat on, beaten, mocked and laughed at Christ died for the sins of the world and The third day God raised him from the dead (Praise God). This was done so that those who believe on Christ will not perish (hell) but have life everlasting (heaven); be justified by Gods grace through redemption in Christ (John 3:16) (Romans 3:24) The blood Jesus shed on the cross washes away our sin, if we Believe in The Son of God and his finished work (ordained by God) on the cross. When this happens the believer receives the righteousness of Christ in place of their own unrighteousness (all sins are forgiven) and this makes them saved (going heaven) and they are born again as a Christian. (Romans 3:25-26).
As a Midwesterner, I feel like you've finally done some justice to American cooking. Thanks! A lot of places that people try aren't really that good and just stereotypical for tourists. Whenever foreigners come to visit they only go to NYC or California and the big cities on the coasts. Hopefully your video brings more people to our beautiful part of the country.
@@trainmanification Well aren't you a pleasant one. Mass shootings only happen when the media needs to distract from something and/or they want to pass a law, by the way. Isn't it strange how coincidental that is?
He's the only professional eater/food challenger I watch. Because, as well as being really good at what he does, he's just...kind, and friendly, and modest, and funny. It baffles me that so many professional eaters think it has to be a grandstanding 'look at me!!' performance. Surely what people want to see is Adam - somebody who you can relate to, and who's just having a good laugh.
The gravy is a Midwest tradition. It was very common in the depression to fry up anything "like chicken" and serve it with a milk based gravy usually with lard or bacon grease, flour, and milk. Milk was usually available when meat wasn't.
@ellisd3165 let's not get ahead of ourselves 😂 I've had great ones and I've had some take my order and go out the back door and get high and never come back😂😂
@@Beardmeatsfood a televised rematch. It's nice to see one of the world's strongest men ever but to see a mortal being going against a food challenge god go at is unique, viral and pays homage to the viewers.
I used to live down the road from Kendalls. It by far is my favorite restaurant in the state of Oklahoma. I ate here all the time. The people are amazing, the chicken fry is incredible, and those cinnamon rolls, my goodness! Great job Beardy Boy!
That food looks amazing. If a restaurant takes enough pride to make multiple homemade salad dressings then it's almost certainly gonna be a banger. It's not easy to find restaurants like that
John: And if I were 40ish years younger I could eat massive amounts of fried greasy food and be healthy. As it is, at least I get a bit of vicarious pleasure watching Adam destroy such a challenge, and only cheat "a little bit" on my own eating.
Sorry if someone has already said this but the reason chicken fried steak is so tender is because it's been stabbed by needles about a thousand times and left to marinate in buttermilk before being breaded and deep-fried. Hands down one of my favorite food! Normally it's a breakfast item for me with over easy eggs :D
It's something I almost never eat out here in California. But the minute you get somewhere really cold (like Oklahoma) you just crave this kind of stick-to-your-ribs type food.
I'm a native Oklahoman living in Germany and I am about to head back to Oklahoma and the US for the first time in 2 years! I've been making my food list of things I miss eating and chicken fried steak is at the top of that list. So, this video just made me immensely more hungry and excited to get back home to it! Funnily enough, never heard of Kendall's, but now this may be my destination to get my chicken fried steak fix 😅
This is definitely a contender for my favorite/last meal request. The "secret" to the green beans is they're slow-cooked with some type of smoked pork product such as ham hock, pork belly, or bacon. Also, that white gravy, when cooked with crumbled pork breakfast sausage, is what we put on biscuits for breakfast. I know you remember it from Cracker Barrel.
@@dnmessedupaaron8916 Absolutely correct. Likely, no regular restaurant cooks beans the traditional way. Some home cooks do though (including my wife).
I’ve only found your channel a month or so ago but I’ve watched a lot of them and enjoyed them very much. I also appreciate your courteous you are to the restaurant staff. Cheers!
It's been a good decade or so since I've gotten to have a good American style gravy (I'm also a Brit btw)... but I remember being weirded out at first that it was white when I first had it, but absolutely LOVING it! I really need to go back to Texas again.
Beard singing Oklahoma the musical to start off this video made my theatre loving heart so happy! This challenge looked incredible! That chicken fried steak, woooah!
You always have the best vibes. As an Oklahoman born and raised, that performance at the beginning was stellar. Much love and respect to you, my friend from across the pond.
Sitting here broke wishing I had this much food. It honestly makes me feel better when I'm smashing rice to fill my belly to see you eating more interesting things. I know that sounds weird but thanks for what you do.
That intro is gonna be hard to beat beard! You’ve raised your bar, and your loyal viewers will expect that level of production and editing in ever single video from this day forward 😂
you may have been out west but that was DEFINITLEY southern cooking ! it was nice they included dessert so you didn't have to ask for it but honestly i do like the reactions you get WHEN you ask for a dessert menu . priceless the looks on their faces .
You notice the harder challenges are the ones that have a lot of meat. Our body has very specific satiation mechanisms for meat and animal fat. Basically, when you've had your fill, a door slams shut. Those mechanisms can be heavily obscured by carbs and sugar. He always asks for Root beer mid meal or after he finishes all the meat. Root beer is extremely sweet and has tons of sugar in it. He's using that insulin response to allow himself to be able eat more food.
The sugar also allows the stomach to empty into the small intestine. It may not open to the meat, but some of that liquid could get out and carry some of the other liquified food out.
Did the same when going to an "All chicken wings you can eat" - buffet. Cleaned house until I couldn't eat more, drank a bit of Coke Zero, burped like a bellowing alligator and magically could eat another plate.
My older brother and I did this challenge about 10 years ago as a pair. Took us about an hour. Still have the cup LOL. You genuinely looked so happy to be changing up the food...No joke EVERYTHING looked delicious even the salad.
@@Beardmeatsfood Yeah it was a valiant effort from two teenagers. I reckon if I went back I could probably do at least 2/3 of it. The cinnamon buns are my kryptonite...can't do sweets.
Dayum!! Now that’s my kind of meal, but smaller portions. 😋❤️🔥❤️🔥 Everything looked absolutely delicious!! The green beans: sauté yellow onions in a little butter with lots of ground black pepper and a cut up smoked ham hock. Let simmer until fat is rendered and onions are translucent. If using tinned beans now add bean juice and same amount of water. If using fresh beans add water and/or beef stock and Maldon’s salt to taste. Simmer covered until desired tenderness. 😋😋😋
My entire family is from Oklahoma, except me. I am born and raised in Texas and my favorite meal by far is a good chicken fried steak and cream gravy. I have watched you for a couple years now and I am proud your favorite challenge is my favorite meal. Good for you, Adam. For the record, my two favorite meals when I was stationed in the UK were gamon and eggs and a decent bangers and mash.
I have binged dozens of your videos and this is quite honestly the only one that made me legit hungry and slightly jealous of that meal. I'm off to find a chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes!
You are truly a treat to watch! I just started watching your videos a couple weeks ago. Now my boys and I have been trying to catch up on them all! You live life with such a positive personality. It's very refreshing, keep on eating! Cheers!
As an Oklahoman that lives in Dallas, EVERY time I cross the Red River to enter back into Oklahoma, I sing "Oklahoma." When my wife is in the car she tells me to shut up, but I continue, anyway. As an Oklahoman, I am also beaming with pride that your favorite-ever challenge is in Oklahoma! Also, it's not surprising that you found the waiter to be a good guy. A lot of friendly people in Oklahoma! Looking forward to seeing where you go next. I had never heard of Kendall's in Noble, OK (not my part of Oklahoma). May have to check it out soon!
I come back to this one every time Im having a bad day, There’s just such a feel good vibe to this one, the food makes you hungry no matter how full you are and the atmosphere is just so pleasant
Right on man. I’m from Texas, been eating chicken fried steak my whole life. I’ve never thought of the cream gravy as really being a peppery bechamel. I’m going to use that line the next time I order one. It’s nice to have a British bloke giving us a different angle to see things. Also, “did that announcer say aggressiveness….you mean aggression.” Even classying-up (not a word) college football! You Brits are alright!
Just as an aside to British people: we have brown gravy here too. The white gravy is a southern delicacy, and if you are ever in the southern US and have a chance to try biscuits and gravy, you don't want to pass it up. There will usually be crumbled sausage in it, and it's made with bacon grease and is so savory and delicious. You can get it in the north as well, but it's never quite as good.
When we were making bechamel in culinary school I put too much pepper in mine and chef goes "well good job, you just made country gravy." So when he said that I died laughing lol.
That was honestly my favorite challenge even just to watch. Seeing and hearing how excited and happy you were really brightened my night! Thanks for always being awesome and for making amazing content for us!!! ♥♥♥
What's up Beard! as an Oklahoman born and raised I liked watching you enjoy our food so much! I've grown up with chicken fried steak eaten a few times a month and it rocks!
So awesome when you honestly love the food. You enjoy most i would say but some like this. Is awesome to not only see you devour it, but enjoyment of food adds so much to us viewers, or at least me. Just going to keep hoing back to the begining. So amamzing. Good job as well this week on the giant canadian soup!! Great work as always
In America, that is called Country Gravy, but you are right, it is a peppery béchamel sauce.. We use it for breakfast mostly, and sometimes will make it with bacon or sausage. That one looked great though!
It's also usually cubed steak, isn't it? (For those that don't know, cubed steak means the steak has been perforated by a bunch of little holes to break up the meat fibers somewhat and make it more tender.)
@@zolo49noname45 Yup. It's not the cut of steak that you would grill up and enjoy medium rare/medium though but for this type of recipe it's amazing for.
I love how he eats like 5+ pounds of food and then decides he’s gonna have one of the complimentary cinnamon rolls just cause. My lord I felt like I was gonna explode just watching that. Southern comfort food is so filling even in a portion 20% that size
I had a feeling when he said that he was coming to Oklahoma, that Kendall's would be on the list. Btw, I still watch all of your videos even though I quit MCOC when they announced 7*s. Good luck in bedlam next week!
Adam's casually cruising thru Oklahoma crushing every challenge... Another win for the Beard, and a win for Oklahoma's country cookin' and hospitality! Continued success along the journey!

Hi Adam great vid
Keep singing ma boy!! Cheers!!
I've been looking forward to seeing you do some challenges in my home state! The song is pretty cringe but that ain't your fault lol.
It's always a special treat when you sing Adam!! 😜❤
Thanks for the content Beardy Lad. You are the best thing for the Sunday TH-cam vibe!
Honestly, it feels so refreshing because it's actually a meal and not just an absurd amount of something.
AMEN!! Pure good meal! Yup... I want one (chicken fried steak) , now!
por que no los dos?
Yes, great challenge.
Yeah for a family of five. He is showing us why us americans are fat for sure. lol
Haha, 3 steaks is just a meal?!?
This didn't even feel like a challenge, it felt like a love letter to an eatery and i'm so here for it. This was joy personified through chicken fried steak

As a Texan, seeing you enjoy Southern home-style cooking is great.
I'm happy to see how friendly everyone is in your videos. Many overseas people think Americans are rude or unfriendly. Not true ,most people are friendly and helpful and love to meet people from other countries.

It looks insanely delicious. Anything 'deviled' is going to improve the taste :) great idea for how to make green beans goooood
They probably don't overcook the beans. The beans taste a lot better when they are pulled out of the water before they turn to Grey mush.
@josephsills4755 don't feel bad. I lived in Oklahoma for 15 years and have never been there. I'm in Arkansas now, too, so I think I'll have to try it next time I'm traveling to OKC.
Stay closer to the interstate and go to Libby’s in Goldsby. Similar portions, affordable prices, superior taste.
The chicken fried steak meal is an institution in the South. It is NECESSARY for life.
This is the only video of yours Ive watched multiple times. It's a great looking challenge!
I will say, as a massive Chicken Fried Steak fan, you should mix it with the mashed potatoes, it just hits different with all those complimentary textures. You can never go wrong with it at a good southern restaurant. One of my favorite meals.
Never tried it up in the Northern Midwest. We got robbed.
I always like combining potatoes with whatever meat they're served with.
Oh yeah....mouth watering even as I type this. Love chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes. This looks like a beautiful meal.
MIX IT ALL 90% of food i love everything all at once saving stuff for the end makes no sense to me
Missed opportunity
What was so enjoyable about this episode is watching how much you enjoyed it Adam, you deserve it after the amount of chips and mushrooms you fight through
I always find myself watching these in the early hours of the morning and making myself extremely hungry 🤣
Imagine Adam done a humungous bowl of mushrooms and chips that would be a killer mate 😂
“I’m gonna eat this like a proper meal for once”
Proceeds to grab a fistful of green beans like the savage he is 😂
hahahaha
Well just imagine the size of the spoon needed to make the same mouthful 😂
I thought he was going to make a burger with 2 chicken fried steaks and beans and gravy inside.
THAT'S our Adam!🤣
That is proper in Leeds. 😆
I eat snacks while watching these food challenges. 🙂
As an okie myself it brings me joy seeing people from the UK try country gravy.

That guy absolutely wanted to be humble and not say he knew who you are, but he absolutely knows who you are.
The 'makes a change from burger challenges?' was a dead giveaway! 😉
He knew the food is gonna be free 😂😂
I think it would be hard to tell who he is in person, his beard covers almost 90% of his face
@Dakoda Fisher I was thinking the same thing. “Humble” would imply he would not try to hide the fact that he knew who Adam is
He also said let's do this. So he knows

@@trainmanification yall have way more just they aren't newsworthy because everyone already knows it won't get any attention.
Beard always entertains. Classic episode. Love that he is so kind and full of life and love for the experience
He's the only professional eater/food challenger I watch. Because, as well as being really good at what he does, he's just...kind, and friendly, and modest, and funny. It baffles me that so many professional eaters think it has to be a grandstanding 'look at me!!' performance. Surely what people want to see is Adam - somebody who you can relate to, and who's just having a good laugh.
The people in Oklahoma have been exceptionally nice in all of your videos from there. What a great look at that state, thanks for posting!
Don't tell anyone but it is one of the nicest places in America!
That's where I'm from. It really can be a good place.
@@boofert.washington2499everything Ive heard about Oklahoma's climate makes me realise that's why Brits like it haha
The gravy is a Midwest tradition. It was very common in the depression to fry up anything "like chicken" and serve it with a milk based gravy usually with lard or bacon grease, flour, and milk. Milk was usually available when meat wasn't.
This is by far the best food eating channel.
Appreciate you brother.
Keep it simple and humble.
Being served extra gravy without having to ask for it = respect
Servers know their shit a lot more than they get credit for
I think he maybe did ask for it, although that moment didn't make it to the final cut. If you listen from 7:25 you'll see what I mean.
@@this_is_a_tiny_town yep i see
he did ask for it.
@ellisd3165 let's not get ahead of ourselves 😂 I've had great ones and I've had some take my order and go out the back door and get high and never come back😂😂
I’m an Oklahomie! I tried this and failed miserably, I’m so glad you enjoyed our food!
time for a rematch mate ;)
@@Beardmeatsfood a televised rematch. It's nice to see one of the world's strongest men ever but to see a mortal being going against a food challenge god go at is unique, viral and pays homage to the viewers.
Mmmmmm chlorinated chicken 🤤🤤
It looked amazing food!
What town is this in? It looks amazing. Chicken fried steak is my favourite meal.
I used to live down the road from Kendalls. It by far is my favorite restaurant in the state of Oklahoma. I ate here all the time. The people are amazing, the chicken fry is incredible, and those cinnamon rolls, my goodness! Great job Beardy Boy!
That food looks amazing. If a restaurant takes enough pride to make multiple homemade salad dressings then it's almost certainly gonna be a banger. It's not easy to find restaurants like that
It is because it has a full contrast, crispy, fried, juicy, creamy, peppery, crunchy, then salad to pull you out, and dessert, perfect.
John: And if I were 40ish years younger I could eat massive amounts of fried greasy food and be healthy. As it is, at least I get a bit of vicarious pleasure watching Adam destroy such a challenge, and only cheat "a little bit" on my own eating.
Sorry if someone has already said this but the reason chicken fried steak is so tender is because it's been stabbed by needles about a thousand times and left to marinate in buttermilk before being breaded and deep-fried. Hands down one of my favorite food! Normally it's a breakfast item for me with over easy eggs :D
Yeesss I love it for breakfast with eggs. Soooo good
Never heard of this, making it tonight, thanks for the info! Drooling already lol
@@fodz9246 let us know how long it took you to poke the steaks 1000 times
And that it is called chicken fried because it is breaded and fried in the same manner as frued chicken.
It's something I almost never eat out here in California. But the minute you get somewhere really cold (like Oklahoma) you just crave this kind of stick-to-your-ribs type food.
Now that, my friend, is a real Oklahoma meal! By the way, the Oklahoma secret to green beans is a tablespoon of bacon grease. :)
Growing up my dad always said, "You could fry a sock in bacon grease and it would taste good."
I suspected bacon had to be involved when Beard said the green beans were good.
I'm a native Oklahoman living in Germany and I am about to head back to Oklahoma and the US for the first time in 2 years! I've been making my food list of things I miss eating and chicken fried steak is at the top of that list. So, this video just made me immensely more hungry and excited to get back home to it! Funnily enough, never heard of Kendall's, but now this may be my destination to get my chicken fried steak fix 😅
I have family out in Oklahoma, so now I want to see if they’ve been, and if not, when I go visit, take everyone there
I am being sarcastic being an Okie myself... but you have no idea what you are talking about. It is called CHICKEN FRY according to comments made.
"Funnily"...damn Passport Two, I think you just coined a word...LOL
CFS is an Americanized version of Schnitzel, so you could get pretty close in Germany.
Germany is king of breaded meats and fried
This one, I think, is my favorite food video you've done Adam. Just something so enjoyable about seeing you truly enjoy a meal as meal
This is definitely a contender for my favorite/last meal request. The "secret" to the green beans is they're slow-cooked with some type of smoked pork product such as ham hock, pork belly, or bacon. Also, that white gravy, when cooked with crumbled pork breakfast sausage, is what we put on biscuits for breakfast. I know you remember it from Cracker Barrel.
pig juice is the key....got it hahaha
I know the answer itis 42
@@dnmessedupaaron8916 Absolutely correct. Likely, no regular restaurant cooks beans the traditional way. Some home cooks do though (including my wife).
@@Beardmeatsfood That sounded more than a little bit gay 😂
@@dnmessedupaaron8916 u can still cook canned green beans that way. Won’t be as good but still good
i love how you eat all this food... and then get dessert! amazes me and hilarious! lol
That last extra cinnamon roll was the icing on the cake! 😀
First time in a while my mouth was watering from watching a challenge. Now I need to get some chicken fried steak.😋
It's pretty easy to make, but can be messy. Just make sure to get a good tenderized steak, or do it yourself. Also, season your batter!
I was asking for hot sauce out loud!!!
Same here
You and me both.
Looks nasty and those green beans look old and musty as fk
I'm always so stoked when Beard loves the food!
What timing as soon as he countdowns the whistle from the tv/game make its official.
Your awesome Beard
I’ve only found your channel a month or so ago but I’ve watched a lot of them and enjoyed them very much. I also appreciate your courteous you are to the restaurant staff. Cheers!
It's been a good decade or so since I've gotten to have a good American style gravy (I'm also a Brit btw)... but I remember being weirded out at first that it was white when I first had it, but absolutely LOVING it!
I really need to go back to Texas again.
Beard singing Oklahoma the musical to start off this video made my theatre loving heart so happy! This challenge looked incredible! That chicken fried steak, woooah!
Love seeing you in oklahoma, your accent, they never guess your from out of town, well done sir beard, compliments to you in the HIGHEST REGARDS
You always have the best vibes. As an Oklahoman born and raised, that performance at the beginning was stellar. Much love and respect to you, my friend from across the pond.
Sitting here broke wishing I had this much food. It honestly makes me feel better when I'm smashing rice to fill my belly to see you eating more interesting things. I know that sounds weird but thanks for what you do.
Make a TH-cam channel and get good at it and you won't have to pay for another meal for years, 2mil+ followers, imagine the money he makes..
@@darrenrsmith7119To put it into perspective he used to be a Stock Broker.
He is now a lovely bloke.
You know it’s a great day when BeardMeatsFood uploads ❤
Chicken fried steak is the best! Thanks for giving Oklahoma some love!
That intro is gonna be hard to beat beard! You’ve raised your bar, and your loyal viewers will expect that level of production and editing in ever single video from this day forward 😂
"Dallas" and "Oklahoma" back to back!
😂❤
@@Beardmeatsfood it's country gravy.
I like it when Mr Beard says... "it's yummeh"
I chuckle every time he says that 🤣
you may have been out west but that was DEFINITLEY southern cooking !
it was nice they included dessert so you didn't have to ask for it but honestly i do like the reactions you get WHEN you ask for a dessert menu . priceless the looks on their faces .
What I like about your channel , is that there is no adverts mid challenge
You notice the harder challenges are the ones that have a lot of meat. Our body has very specific satiation mechanisms for meat and animal fat. Basically, when you've had your fill, a door slams shut. Those mechanisms can be heavily obscured by carbs and sugar. He always asks for Root beer mid meal or after he finishes all the meat. Root beer is extremely sweet and has tons of sugar in it. He's using that insulin response to allow himself to be able eat more food.
The sugar also allows the stomach to empty into the small intestine. It may not open to the meat, but some of that liquid could get out and carry some of the other liquified food out.
I always wondered why he asked for sweet fizzy drinks, Those always fill me up and make the meal heavier to me.
Did the same when going to an "All chicken wings you can eat" - buffet. Cleaned house until I couldn't eat more, drank a bit of Coke Zero, burped like a bellowing alligator and magically could eat another plate.
i bet these guys have the most epic bowel movements.
@@an3582 Supposedly, carbonation aids digestion, but it is mostly for the sweet taste and insulin spike.
My older brother and I did this challenge about 10 years ago as a pair. Took us about an hour. Still have the cup LOL.
You genuinely looked so happy to be changing up the food...No joke EVERYTHING looked delicious even the salad.
you got the cup? that means you lost no? shameful...
na just kidding mate, strong effort :)
@@Beardmeatsfood Yeah it was a valiant effort from two teenagers. I reckon if I went back I could probably do at least 2/3 of it. The cinnamon buns are my kryptonite...can't do sweets.
@@hirotashi they won't be for Mrs Beard she loves bread
I'm from Hull but worked in Alabama for 2 years. The food was unbelievable, absolutely loved my time there ❤️
Hull in England?
It’s so amazing to watch how he gobble and finished that amount of food everytime
Dayum!! Now that’s my kind of meal, but smaller portions. 😋❤️🔥❤️🔥 Everything looked absolutely delicious!!
The green beans: sauté yellow onions in a little butter with lots of ground black pepper and a cut up smoked ham hock. Let simmer until fat is rendered and onions are translucent. If using tinned beans now add bean juice and same amount of water. If using fresh beans add water and/or beef stock and Maldon’s salt to taste. Simmer covered until desired tenderness. 😋😋😋
My entire family is from Oklahoma, except me. I am born and raised in Texas and my favorite meal by far is a good chicken fried steak and cream gravy. I have watched you for a couple years now and I am proud your favorite challenge is my favorite meal. Good for you, Adam. For the record, my two favorite meals when I was stationed in the UK were gamon and eggs and a decent bangers and mash.
Your favorite meal wasn't the national dish of the UK, tikka masala? 😂
I have binged dozens of your videos and this is quite honestly the only one that made me legit hungry and slightly jealous of that meal. I'm off to find a chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes!
You are truly a treat to watch! I just started watching your videos a couple weeks ago. Now my boys and I have been trying to catch up on them all! You live life with such a positive personality. It's very refreshing, keep on eating! Cheers!
Not sure why Adam but " it's yummy" gets me everytime. Well done on the challenge btw.
FACTS!
That southern food looks excellent! Those green beans with bacon and cream gravy looks great! 👍
🔥🎸🔥
As an Oklahoman that lives in Dallas, EVERY time I cross the Red River to enter back into Oklahoma, I sing "Oklahoma." When my wife is in the car she tells me to shut up, but I continue, anyway. As an Oklahoman, I am also beaming with pride that your favorite-ever challenge is in Oklahoma! Also, it's not surprising that you found the waiter to be a good guy. A lot of friendly people in Oklahoma! Looking forward to seeing where you go next. I had never heard of Kendall's in Noble, OK (not my part of Oklahoma). May have to check it out soon!
There's a simple joy that comes from knowing you're about to really annoy your wife hahaha
fellow okie whoot
I come back to this one every time Im having a bad day, There’s just such a feel good vibe to this one, the food makes you hungry no matter how full you are and the atmosphere is just so pleasant
This place is one of my favorites and right down the road. Great food and great service! Well done Beard!!
Right on man. I’m from Texas, been eating chicken fried steak my whole life. I’ve never thought of the cream gravy as really being a peppery bechamel. I’m going to use that line the next time I order one. It’s nice to have a British bloke giving us a different angle to see things. Also, “did that announcer say aggressiveness….you mean aggression.” Even classying-up (not a word) college football! You Brits are alright!
Gotta lie to the british to get them to try it. Fluffy buttery scones topped in a peppery bechamel sauce instead of biscuits and gravy
Just as an aside to British people: we have brown gravy here too. The white gravy is a southern delicacy, and if you are ever in the southern US and have a chance to try biscuits and gravy, you don't want to pass it up. There will usually be crumbled sausage in it, and it's made with bacon grease and is so savory and delicious. You can get it in the north as well, but it's never quite as good.
When we were making bechamel in culinary school I put too much pepper in mine and chef goes "well good job, you just made country gravy." So when he said that I died laughing lol.
Yeah we love Texas in the UK all the same..
I've travelled in the States a bit. Now I'm back in Wales, I had to make biscuits and gravy at home as I've experienced Southern Food Withdrawal.
That was honestly my favorite challenge even just to watch. Seeing and hearing how excited and happy you were really brightened my night! Thanks for always being awesome and for making amazing content for us!!! ♥♥♥
Thanks for watching mate ❤
A peppery beschamel is actually a really good description for people that haven't had it. I have never thought of describing it like that
you can also tell people that it's made with a bacon and flour roux
sheesh, that sounds kinda aweful... I hoped it would be more of a sauce tartare or sour cream flavour/base
@@kysa3535 try it! It’s not so bad
@@kysa3535 naw it’s gooood!
K.i.s.s. it's cream gravy. 😋
What's up Beard! as an Oklahoman born and raised I liked watching you enjoy our food so much! I've grown up with chicken fried steak eaten a few times a month and it rocks!
Southern Green beans are amazing. Usually cooked in ham stock and served with diced bacon.
Dude came in with the gravy like a real hero.
Beard you looked happy at that place.
All that from scratch cookin' that included the cinnamon rolls is epic.
Wow what a challenge!
Twas a great one ❤
So awesome when you honestly love the food. You enjoy most i would say but some like this. Is awesome to not only see you devour it, but enjoyment of food adds so much to us viewers, or at least me. Just going to keep hoing back to the begining. So amamzing. Good job as well this week on the giant canadian soup!! Great work as always
I’ve never seen you so effusive with your praise. Usually the British understated “it’s not bad” food looked awesome, as are all your videos!
In America, that is called Country Gravy, but you are right, it is a peppery béchamel sauce.. We use it for breakfast mostly, and sometimes will make it with bacon or sausage. That one looked great though!
You always pound out the steak before battering and frying, that is why its tender and easy to eat! :)
It's also usually cubed steak, isn't it? (For those that don't know, cubed steak means the steak has been perforated by a bunch of little holes to break up the meat fibers somewhat and make it more tender.)
@@zolo49noname45 you are correct, another example of a cheap cut being turned into something beautiful and delicious 😋
@@zolo49noname45 Yup. It's not the cut of steak that you would grill up and enjoy medium rare/medium though but for this type of recipe it's amazing for.
That steak looks amazing. A good chicken fried steak is a real thing of beauty.
Root beer goes well with everything
I love how he eats like 5+ pounds of food and then decides he’s gonna have one of the complimentary cinnamon rolls just cause. My lord I felt like I was gonna explode just watching that. Southern comfort food is so filling even in a portion 20% that size
Really nice to see you actually enjoying a meal! That did look super delish... Put this place on my food travel list!!!!!
i'm so proud my home state gave you your best food challenge ever!!! Fire.
I had a feeling when he said that he was coming to Oklahoma, that Kendall's would be on the list. Btw, I still watch all of your videos even though I quit MCOC when they announced 7*s. Good luck in bedlam next week!
@@Tiny-un7jy Thanks for the channel support! 7-stars will definitely be a risk.
I had a really rough day, I am so glad and thankful you are here with a new video Beard. I really needed this, thank you
Hope things get easier for you soon. ❤
Hey! I feel the same way! Thanks Adam for making a day better.
hope tomorrow is better for you!
I wouldn’t do the challenge but I would order a regular meal of that. It made me hungry watching him.
Just moved to Oklahoma from lifelong living in California , and I couldn't be happier more content and delighted .
You can really tell Mr. Beard enjoyed every bit of this challenge. Enjoyed every bite! Well done Mr. Beard.
Thanks bud
That actually looks really yummy! Not just fried food, chips, and more chips.
Looks great, I really liked the vibe of the restaurant as well. Chicken fried steak done right is a true delicacy.
The chicken fried steak meal is REQUIRED eating for Southerners.
Those beans looked scrumptious as well as the chicken fried steak. That was a great challenge. 🇺🇸❤️🇬🇧
After all that, eating some of the complimentary take home cinnamon rolls. This guy is a legend!
@Craig Ross Making the most of it
Well, he hadn't asked for the dessert menu, the guy was probably starving!😃
Adam's casually cruising thru Oklahoma crushing every challenge... Another win for the Beard, and a win for Oklahoma's country cookin' and hospitality! Continued success along the journey!
That looked incredible. Even the "normal" portion would be huge with each chicken fried steak weighing 1lb.
I had a 16oz chicken fried steak one time. Damn thing was the size of a platter.
So glad you had some good country fried steak with the white gravy and potatoes. One of the best meals ever created. ❤️
Chicken fried steak 🤤 Kendall’s foods looked amazing!! Thanks for sharing Mr. Beard 🤩
