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

1:38

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

3:14
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

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
