      why shouldn't it be free to the public? ATK gets paid through ads, sponsorships and viewership. Furthermore, people will not pay for recipes when there are so many other outlets widely available (for free).

    I always cook my own beans. They are very easy to cook on a pressure cooker and the flavour is amazing. Additionally you don't need to blend the beans to dive body to the soup because they will be creamy and rich

    The only salmon available is the kind that is thinner on one end. I cut the thin part off and freeze all the salmon. When cooking I can now cook thin and fat salmon to the perfect temp. I often cook frozen and check temp at the end. The reason for this it’s hard to get a nice sear without drying out the middle when the steaks are thin. With salmon a thermometer is essential since perfect and dry are just a few seconds away

    This was a great episode. 👍
    *_Tacos_* - I know Bryan was replicating Ruddell's salmon tacos and they look awesome but I still prefer salmon with avocado, cabbage and lime. Apple, carrots, mustard and mayo? I'll give it a try one day.
    *_Fajitas_* - Christie nailed it. Very cool that she used the marinade to juice up the grilled onions and peppers and love that she eliminated the sizzling hot plate. It's traditional everywhere and how Ninfa's does it (or did when I visited) but it's unnecessary. 😀

    • @ytreece
      @ytreece 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Totally agree on the fish taco toppings! I always make extra of my marinade for the veggies, and to brush on the meat while it rests. Brushing the meat adds a ton of flavor and if there’s no time to marinade, I just do that.

    I made a similar salmon a long time ago and it was incredible. Imagining that with a smoky flavor sounds breathtaking. 😊
    The effect on the background in the outdoor shots makes me feel like I'm dreaming lol. When does the giant chick show up? 😆

    Chimney starters, and lighting charcoal.
    If you have a turkey fryer burner, or a side
    burner on a gas grill, turn the separator
    upside down. That will get the charcoal
    closer to the fire, and give you the ability
    to use more charcoal. YES, use the side
    burner, or the TFryer burner. Turkey fryer
    burner, charcoal ready in about 5 minutes.
    Yes, I DO! Also, use the Weber charcoal
    chimney starter.

    Doesn't pineapple juice also act as a tenderizer? Pineapple is a bromeliad and I think they have an enzyme in them that breaks down proteins.

    • @DavidFSloneEsq
      @DavidFSloneEsq 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I was thinking the exact same thing. My best guess as to why they chose not to mention that is that, just maybe, the “Cook’s Country” brand attracts a demographic for whom science is inconvenient.

    • @bentleyr00d
      @bentleyr00d 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Pineapple juice is strong and it you leave it for too long it kind of destroys the texture. You have the use it with care.

    • @DavidFSloneEsq
      @DavidFSloneEsq 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      bentleyr00d Precisely. That would be what science would dictate.

      if it’s canned (like they’re using here) the canning process deactivates the enzymes

  • @MrCinpro

    1) to help browning could you use the same trick you use for chicken when you guys make Chinese food? (Corn starch or backing soda?)
    2) does the marinade have a teriyaki sauce flavor to it, they seem close, especially with the pineapple 🍍?

    • @Marty1993
      @Marty1993 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      to answer number one. Yes. BS lowers to ph, which enables better browning.

    on the Chimney starters....there is a Big difference between charcoal and the briquettes you showed. Charcoal burns hotter and is made from real wood only. Briquettes are made from Coal and wood shavings compressed (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Briquette). I like your show but sometimes the fact are off. However, I am in the PNW and there may be a big difference between here and there.
