this is the most

0:10

important thing will discuss today and

0:11

that's because one the biggest problems

0:13

today in my view is that people

0:16

in the the country don't

0:18

know how to properly cook bacon

0:21

however with as they love big and right and this

0:23

has been a in internet mean

0:25

for years where people go on and on about how much they'll have

0:27

begun yet most of the time ago

0:29

you had to suspend you gotta someone's house you stay the night

0:31

you wake up the next morning they morning they breakfast

0:34

they make peyton and and and and you

0:36

feel grateful for that but them what they put in

0:39

front of you is an abomination it's either bird

0:41

to a crisp thereby robbing it of

0:43

all as begun a flavor or it's undercoat

0:45

and flimsy him in in has

0:47

the consistency of microwave taffy

0:50

or it's both it's kind of born

0:53

in parts and and undercooked in other parts of the

0:55

becomes as pockmarked i'm

0:57

all of my that

1:34

ability as a chef hang

1:36

in a porpoise the beg him does who does that what

1:38

sort of deranged lunatic the mix

1:43

ate three the pieces before i took that picture

the , mix of of tender

2:16

and crispy not over dot not under non

2:19

the fatty parts are also cooked not burned

2:21

but cooked melt in your mouth

2:24

a brilliant job by me an amazing job

2:26

by me now how did i do this i

2:30

put the bacon on a preheated skill

2:32

he did a medium high heat don't want to hot

2:34

don't want to cool the put

2:36

it on let sit for about three minutes then

2:39

i flip it give another couple minutes the

2:41

now now that i've done couple minutes on

2:43

each side now really just flipping it back

2:45

and forth several more times and

2:47

and i'm try to get that perfect color

2:49

and texture it's more

2:51

of an art than science cooking

2:54

bacon i was all about vigilance it's all about loyalty

2:56

heroism you can't leave a stove for any reason

2:59

hi donna bacon and at at the whole time all

3:01

your senses dialed in site

3:04

hearing smell com

3:06

one with the baden tap into it's essence

3:09

the you're not just you're not just doing this visual you

3:11

also you're listening smelling

3:14

you're feeling you're sensing now

3:17

what my wife will do she'll

3:19

probate and on the stove

3:21

then shall leave

3:23

because you know one of the kids dot

3:25

on the steps or something and you have to go check

3:27

the make sure they're have to go to ask

3:30

ron

3:31

it'll be fun you'll figure it out

3:33

the to spot drawn down

3:35

the steps in the first place should have paid attention they

3:38

were debate the babies crying kids

3:40

are screaming doesn't matter

3:43

stay focused remember your priorities

3:46

remember the great responsibility that you

3:48

assumed on yourself when you open

3:50

that package debate

3:51

you're the

3:53

one open the now you're committed

3:56

you to see it all the way through then

3:58

here's a trick of course make sure to take the bait the off

4:00

of the stove ninety seconds before

4:02

it's don't want to take it off with a little bit under

4:04

done the greece is gonna continue

4:07

to cook the bacon so you let the grease finish the

4:09

job if you take the bacon off is a big mistake people

4:11

make they've begun up when it looks perfect

4:13

user or got perfect begun you wanna

4:15

call all your friends family took a picture like i

4:17

did by the time everyone gets into

4:19

the room and you're taking the picture is ruined it's

4:21

done it's done why didn't happen

4:23

because it kept cooking for ninety seconds apples

4:25

are you wanna time it perfectly take off ninety

4:27

seconds before it's done and

4:30

i'm and then you will have

4:38

that match your disastrous and frankly

4:41

dangerously heretical guidance on

4:43

cooking the sweet ambrosia that is salty

4:45

delicious pork belly simply called begun

4:47

by untutored is nothing short of inciting

4:49

vandalism might as well champion

4:51

drawing crayon mustaches on the mona lisa

4:55

every man with an orderly mind

4:57

and properly educated in the preparation of the gift

4:59

god literally blessed mankind with on a tablecloth

5:01

in the heavens know that must be grill

5:04

only a searing well season grill provides

5:06

the proper balance of heat and carbon required

5:08

to allow the internal fats are it's just that crispy

5:11

and tender homeostasis which yields

5:13

a perfect sweetness that can set off any dust

5:15

from omelets oysters to only begun

5:18

indeed the only acceptable justification for cooking

5:20

bacon in a skillet is a need to save

5:22

and use the drippings to later and views into a bottle

5:25

of kentucky bourbon distorted view of on this

5:27

topic make me question your suitability for any

5:29

theater tyrannical aspirations well

5:31

chris i

5:33

spent ten minutes on my show talking

5:36

about bacon while other

5:38

shows are talking about breaking news

5:40

important news like impeach i'm

5:43

sitting here talking about big okay

5:46

that's the kind of commitment you

5:48

get for me when it comes to this topic

5:51

there are any other show host anyone

5:54

else and conservative media anywhere

5:57

the gonna spend ten minutes of a show talking

5:59

about how to cook bacon

6:02

there's a reason for that possible

6:05

what that's what i did and your response

6:08

is to criticize me your

6:11

response rather than writing mean email saying

6:13

thank you so much map for that beautiful

6:16

presentation thank you for calling

6:18

of calling attention to the stage for

6:20

raising awareness but the proper way

6:22

to cook bacon thank you for that

6:25

you are a hero you deserve a nobel prize

6:28

you are a genius instead

6:30

of that which is

6:32

what i expect the idea criticism

6:36

unbelievable and

6:38

you expect me to believe that you know how to

6:40

cook bacon because

6:43

know cooking bacon comes down to character the

6:45

comes down to what kind of person are you

6:49

i firmly believe if you if you cannot

6:52

properly cook bacon that's a reflection

6:54

of your character it's

6:56

obvious that you character flaws one of them in gratitude

7:01

oh no i don't want your ungrateful begun you

7:04

don't need i showed you the that the

7:06

photographic evidence you saw it

7:09

for yourself

7:10

the maybe need to expand your mind or the attorney fancy

7:12

grill i'll put it on skillet or

7:14

to cook the bacon on our on our on a hot furnace

7:17

okay i can cook it at a burger cook it on the street

7:20

on a ninety degree day and it's going to look that good

7:24

that about the tools you use press

7:27

it's about the it's about the the spirit

7:30

the love you

7:32

put into that's what i do the

7:40

not has given us a picture of her begun

7:42

for baking dish take a look

7:44

at this picture that you sentinel

7:47

here it is now going to leave that up on the screen for

7:49

a minute because we really need to get into

7:51

this the net you want me

7:53

to really

7:57

like you can get offended know remember

7:59

you

7:59

for this

8:02

now

8:04

the management training course that i took for my

8:06

assistant manager job at dominoes when i was nineteen

8:09

told me that you should always couch criticism

8:11

with positive feedback as well so on

8:14

a positive note i like the idea

8:16

behind your dish i like your energy

8:18

i like your hustle i like your commitment

8:21

pork i like to cheddar gray the

8:23

idea all that is good very commendable

8:26

unfortunately the execution is a disaster

8:28

on the level of the hindenburg this

8:32

is supposed to be the finished products correct what we're

8:34

looking at your the have

8:36

already cooked if

8:38

you've already cooked us then

8:41

why are there rob bacon draped

8:43

over the pork the

8:46

pork tenderloin rods who was just a alive

8:48

pig hanging out under there

8:51

we look at israel

8:52

look at has begun there is precisely one piece

8:55

of begun that is properly cooked on his entire

8:57

dish you could spot it yourself it's

8:59

right there you see the horizontal strips of bacon and

9:01

the bottom the strike screen the one

9:03

in the middle right there that

9:06

is the only properly cooked feasible

9:09

and how you know that it's

9:11

probably cook will you noticed the coloring you

9:13

notice the charred edges you

9:15

notice the texture it's got all of

9:17

the the hallmarks of a properly well

9:19

coached piece of bacon's of well done

9:22

edu you did one nicely could

9:24

be vegan a problem is there's like twenty

9:26

pieces of bacon or that things and i would never

9:28

say that it's a problem at twenty pieces vegan it's

9:30

only a problem when you don't cook the other

9:32

nineteen

9:34

now

9:36

really having that one well could be the bacon

9:38

only makes the rest of of worse because then

9:40

you get the you know now we can compare

9:42

it so compare that to the

9:44

vertical slice all the way to

9:46

the far left the

9:48

of the of the screen or know the

9:51

far right the which william

9:53

it is not notice it's notice it's

9:56

pale white appearance

9:58

it looks like it have the stomach flu

9:59

the

10:00

they'll sweaty soggy just

10:02

lying there a limp

10:04

the new serve that your family are

10:07

you trying to kill them my god and buses

10:10

if my wife serve that to me we'd be in marriage

10:12

counseling that's how bad it is now

10:16

that the bacon does get progressively better

10:18

as you go down the tenderloin but even the

10:21

even the best cook piece of bacon is not

10:23

cooked the very well at

10:25

all the let me ask

10:27

you this than i did it when you make meatballs

10:29

you just they'll take the

10:31

ground beef and in and grab

10:33

a chunk of of raul ground beef

10:36

and throat on the table throw

10:39

it in your husband's face

10:41

here's your meatball that

10:43

would you do

10:45

because that's the equivalent of what you've done here

10:49

i can look at us anymore i am i am shocked

10:53

and appalled that assume this is some sort of practical

10:55

joke

10:56

but

11:00

thank you for being a subscriber and or thank you

11:02

for for listening as well

11:04

your your support from laura

11:06

says hello matt supreme leader of the world

11:08

i come to you that my husband's bacon

11:11

judged he said that today it

11:13

is perfect the you as the all knowing

11:15

will be able to tell me if it is or not

11:18

i have attached a picture for you

11:20

they laura perfect

11:22

vague and you say

11:24

well

11:25

cried cometh before the fall

11:28

but let's see here will take a look at it this is

11:30

the what sales or the picture up on the screen

11:32

this is the supposedly perfect baden there

11:35

it is

11:36

okay

11:38

that's why i think i'd get it now your husband meant

11:41

that that is the perfect example

11:43

of terrible bacon i think what he meant

11:45

to say

11:46

i'm gonna assume that what he meant to say

11:50

because that would make sense in context

11:52

yeah okay so the coloring is okay

11:55

the actual cook on the bacon is okay

11:58

i'm not like in the color at the

11:59

top left corner there you see that baden

12:02

or that piece as much darker than the rest so

12:04

the in congruity the lack of sit

12:07

cemetery their eyes is is are troubling to me

12:09

that the very bottom you've got that horizontal

12:11

piece that looks sickly and looks like it has yellow

12:14

fever or something so

12:17

that's a problem but all

12:19

of that you know what only not this page

12:22

down to about a c plus

12:24

the of i'm just gonna based on the cook and

12:26

the color i'm going to say c plus

12:28

not bad

12:29

also not great

12:31

athena drops at the runway

12:33

the f

12:35

then becomes grounds for deportation

12:37

the most obvious thing of all is the mangled

12:39

twisted toward in shape

12:42

of the bacon itself so

12:44

what was your husband doing

12:46

the torturing a bacon the get it to talk

12:48

i mean it's already dead some will let him know there's another

12:50

doesn't have anything to tell

12:53

what did a bacon do to him

12:55

that made him feel like he had to draw and quarter

12:58

when

13:00

someone puts begun down in front of i

13:03

expect to see strips of

13:05

bacon there's a big not

13:07

mangled clumps of begun

13:09

a perfectly shaped strip

13:12

neatly sitting there the lightly

13:14

waiting for me to eat it

13:17

okay i want to see bacon that is proud

13:21

i don't want to see begging begging

13:23

me to put it out of it's misery that's my problem

13:26

now i i

13:28

assume that when you saw this begun

13:30

by your husband your immediate response

13:32

was the contact a divorce divorce

13:35

attorney and i don't blame

13:37

you for that

13:38

i'm not saying that it would be wrong to divorce your

13:40

husband for made in baden like this i

13:43

mean certainly legally ethically biblically

13:46

you you would be well within your

13:48

rights but luckily luckily about

13:50

the gets more if you have kids

13:52

if you don't than than gathers president

13:55

if you do you

13:57

don't wanna leave them with a man who prepares breakfast

14:00

and so i'm perhaps

14:02

i'm sorry that you're going through this in your marriage

14:05

the

14:06

i and i enter thing is i don't blame your husband

14:09

guy blame whoever taught him adam a break

14:12

that monsters person

14:14

the now i fear that you're going to pass down his own

14:16

children they put a curse

14:18

that will never end of postdoctoral
