[TheUsmc29]

[rafika816]

OMG! I can't wait to make these this weekend! Thanks for the hilariously funny and informative video. You made this look so easy.

[Ihasmoarface]

Turkey > Beef

[Funkyman391]

made this for Thanksgiving, put too much chicken seasoning in it so it was a little thymey, but everyone loved it! thanks Chef! :D

[Davertude]

oooh i like that trick with beating the egg on the side of the work bowl

[TopL4m3r]

Im turkish and i find this offensive!

[CrimsonEcho7]

Cutest balls ever.

[Sizzlik]

I did put my meatballs in..now they hurt like hell =(

[sillyskysnupi]

you dont wanna taste barneys meat right

[neslix33]

I should stop watching these videos I'M SO HUNGRYYYYYY

[HEYBIGDADDY3]

ITS FUCKING RAW!!!!



[feifeeei]

Favourite chef to watch... I LOVE LOVE your videos :) I'm on a diet but I just watch your videos to compensate :D

[DraciaNightcat]

...I love plain turkey xD

[Raphaelx2ily]

I happen to like the canned "cranberry sauce". I know technically it's not a sauce at all, but I do prefer it on sandwiches w/ left over turkey or meatloaf as apposed to the "real" cranberry sauce w/ the chunks of cranberries MAINLY b/c it holds up better. It doesn't make the lovely roll soggy or the turkey/meatloaf moist to the point it's disintegrating. Stop being prejudice Chef John. Give the canned jellied "cranberry sauce" a break! lol.

[MrPolo466]

mmmmmmh balls.... wait

[vadont]

i frigging love meat balls

[SexxiiBlaque]

I LOVE watching this chef... he's the best! love your jokes

[GCgame]

Wait.. There is The words balls and cock in the same title. Come on chef John

[jcool1945]

Do you do the marmalade like you did for the Panda wings and make sure all the white is out I would imagine.

[TheMoody12345]

Thanks for making me look like an awesome cook in front my gf's family. they loved this dish and it ran out faster then all the other apps. Great work!!

[FlypaperGirl]

is it possible to make cheese cake if you don't have something like ricotta ? can you make a video how to make it ? round here it is so expensive to get any cream cheese. we do have curd though, can it be still made with it?

[deraifu]

@FlypaperGirl Yes you can, ricotta cheese cake is awesome.

[FlypaperGirl]

@deraifu a big problem here too, no ricotta it ia expensive ( somehow all thta has a big too nice sounding name costs a lot) 

[MSJIGGLY2U]

[mrvendetor]

FUCK YEH!

[DontTouchMyVicodin]

@veswanx

Chickens are as much related to dinosaurs as turkeys.

[theurbanolive]

PSHHH it's turkey, not as good as beef but not the point

[comfortablesofa]

I just made this ... un-f$#%ing!-believable!

[TheChicagoChef]

I love your video's. Thanks for the info about Turkey's being prehistoric.

Ta,

Debbie

[cozycushins]

aw im sure barney and friends wouldve been delicious.

and aren't birds/chickens related to dinosaurs? Or are turkeys the only birds that scientists are sure of?

[Principalies]

It's easier just to make them cubed.

[wung97]

All my meat balls lol

[MrJapWannabe]

[jankockv]

[workit718]

[YoBootyStinks]

LOL@ "Ribbed For Your Pleasure"

[novemberschopin]

all birds are descendants of dinosaurs, not just turkey

[jimmychauv]

chafing? :(

[crisscross1985]

okay, who were the 4 idiots who didn't like this recipe? Huh? HUH?

[lovecandieee]

@crisscross1985 PETA's vegans. :) Not that there's anything wrong with them, well I guess that depends on who you ask!

[iDontNeedaUsernam]

I made this the other day, and I must say, it was BEYOND AMAZING!!!!

I was fresh out of worschester sauce, (and i don't really like the taste either) and I used fresh onion. SO FRICKIN EASY!!! I got so many compliments, and them meatballs were GONE in 9 minutes!

THANKS CHEF JOHN! THIS RECIPIE'S A KEEPER!

[SyddneyyLeigh]

hahahaha "But if you wanna be all Martha Stewart"

[chunky1x]

Why did you not deep fry to brown all sides ?

[TheDevineBeing]

@ARabidPigeon You can have mine^^. There low-hanging, big and sweaty (with a little hair). Does that sound good?, if so, open your mouth for my ball sack :).

[xLeoTony]

I'm a beginner in cooking

can someone recommend me one of the simplest chef john recipe O:

besides the boiling egg one (:

[avivelevovii]

@xLeoTony Go for sweet stuff, like cake. Those are pretty easy :)

Actually, most of his recipes are pretty easy :)

[whydoihavetocry]

@xLeoTony lump free sauce



[ravi930]

@xLeoTony chicken wings

[aznmmv00]

ehehehe. Worshershershersher sauce :3

[xNinjaKingx]

I'm with you on the whole savage approach... FUCK A PLATE! ILL EAT IT OUTA THE PAN >=D!!!!!!!!!!!!!! also If possible i would eat dinosaur meat, YES YOU BARNEY!!! DONT COME BY MY HOUSE OR I SWEAR I WILL TRAP, KILL, SKIN YOUR ASS AND TURN U INTO JERKY >=O!

[MissJLuxe]

Why don't you have your own show, you are freakin hilarious!!

[rhettnyedotorg]

flu like symptoms from teflon cooking

[CookingSoulFood]

the water in my mouth started to run as i watched the video so that speaks for itself.

one tip... if you want a light version, just cook the meatballs in the oven instead. then you don't even have to turn them over... time and exercise saved ;) you can't taste the difference ((((:

[kelvz7]

Ribbed for your pleasure! Good one Chef John (y)

[gorikuri]

Hee hee hee the "ribbed for your pleasure" comment REALLY had me laughing this morning as I watched. I hope they give you your own show.

[romero271991]

Turkeys are related to dinasaurs!! hahahahahahah!!

[dimitriuss]

SOOO HUNGRY :(

[kareemtiheed]

yummmmmmmmmmmmm

[MrSMOOTHACE]

hey why dont u do some Arabic food !!they do a delicious food !!

[tete2brioche]

"on the whole of its surface"

[astigpangit]

dinosaur meat!!

[Hubrystical]

Those...  are some cool toothpicks, Chef John. The turkey balls look good too.

[Punkylolita]

"Most of people who eat these will be drunk" XD LOL

[bonbonaccessories]

Hey Chef!! i just received your cookbook :D gonna start cooking tonight!!

[ppshchik]

Why don't Americans call it "Christmas"? o_O Holidays...lol

[Tehlifeof3]

Sheff john, you've inspired me :) im only 14 and have made a bunch of my own recipes :D i just wanted to say thanks :) and btw i really liked your union rings :)

[lt529]

I would have made that "That's how I roll" joke lol

[Fierybutterflywings]

One word.... YUM!

[pretty1inpink22]

"ribbed for your pleasure" lmao!!

Good recipe bud!

[TheDenisedrake]

What type of wine would you serve with dinosaur meat?

[josh3636]

did you ever win the food network thing?

[caa1000]

Oh great video! Poor Barney!!! Lol!

[2Legit2Acquit]

I'd like to request a video using dinosaur meat.

[azooma]

makin' me hungry

[bih80]

Ace, John! I always laugh and enjoy your videos!

[dancingsprite]

looks yummy! I wouldn't hesitate to use onion powder or garlic powder since I make my own. When making your own powders, they have really strong flavors unlike the grocery variety!

[nycapples1]

llloooovvvveee this guy..... although i can't really cook he makes me wanna try and all of his foods are simple and easy yet tasteful and fun!!!

[soniasvideo]

LMAO...ribbed for your pleasure...that was funny!!!

[stargirlme65]

I DIED at "ribbed for your pleasure" as he stroked the jelly haha.

[therlaehgund]

@stargirlme65

i DIED at this comment

[yueguong]

tnkx now i'll think about Barni every time i'll eat turkey :P lol love your videos!!

[true05angel]

Finally, I will know what Barney would taste like. (that sounded less weird in my head lol)

[doomonucharlie]

omg .. who gave this thumbs down? even if you don't like these meatballs .. the commentary alone is worth a thumbs up.

[DrunknShooter]

Woo Hoo canned cranberry goodness! ʎʮɰɰɧ

[gledalka]

Dinosours! :D ........hahaha! I shall try this recipe! thx !

[stooge81]

i tried (pre-made) turkey meatballs just last week. surprisingly good, and so close to beef after you put them in sauce, you'll hardly taste the difference. you'll also be interested to know that i'm typing this without any pants on. good day, everyone.

[saturday7142007]

@stooge81 what about underwear?

[BakaCookie]

Yes, I would eat this over Barney anyday. =D

[knduong]

Why not oven them afterwards so that it'll cook all sides

[sermeiren86]

Can you do a honey glazed chicken wings receipe?

[supervegano]

chef I love you man, but like in friends kind of way OK.

[msebele]

You make everything seem so simple! I'm gonna try this recipe!

[GoGlowy]

like how you...save me time ;-)

[hellsing3x6]

I love your videos, very professional.

[tuuplis]

love your vids. Waiting for some tasty vegetarian recipe . with some meat substitude maby

[chevythunder09]

@tuuplis I'm kind of thinking there is no substitute for meat...

[alexanderblake]

What kind of Worcestershire sauce do you use?

[teddyandturtle]

i aspire to be as hilarious as you chef john.

[therunescapesecrete]

why do you wet your hands?

[flyingdagger81]

@therunescapesecrete common technique used to stop food from sticking to your hands

[therunescapesecrete]

anyone who wastes their time saying first are dumb... try to be the last commenter, last commentor gets a cookie

[eatingperson]

This was an especially funny video, good job.

[BargainClipper]

I've been looking for a meatball recipe and this one fits the bill! I use ground turkey all of the time. I used to get those frozen meatballs, but I think the "soy-something" ingredient doesn't agree with me. So I like this simple recipe. Now, I'm going to double the recipe, so I can use up the entire can of cranberry sauce.

[LeekaLisa]

I liked the slow mo of your cranberry jelly hitting the plate, and ribbed for her pleasure:) Looks good, gotta try this one!!

[anexpatkid]

I love that picture of Barney and Friends at the end:)

I'm making the Tom Jefferson Mac and Cheese today!

[spankses]

could i add some minced pork without it changing flavour too much?

(fat is flavour/moisture theory?)

[spritefizzies]

Wish you had went ahead and done the... Cause that's how I roll joke. These looked really good.

[kitteesPJs]

'That's how I roll,' lol

[Margieline]

Ribbed for your pleasure... oh jeez.... LOL.

[lanebrain92]

Thank u for this recipe, watched with my 4 year old daughter .... She loves meatballs.... By the way my daughter says that you crack her up.. Lol...

[SNJ03]

Ribbed for your pleasure! LMAO. NOOOO! Only Chef John would pull that joke. OMG. Too Funny!

[coolliger]

looks good

[JusGoAhead]

foodwish: butter prawn ( chinese food)

[angelaguzman87]

thank for all of your hard work I love your blog

[47065360]

Next Thanksgiving Day I'll make roasted dinosaur for dinner.

[KoujiKabuto]

looks like someone is hinting for a condom deal (ribbed for your pleasure) ^_^

[katemckate]

lol most of the people that eat these are going to be pretty drunk, ah Chef John you never disappoint

[jplanejazz]

Vindaloo?

[AndreaHatesHerName]

The "ribbed for your pleasure" part creeped me out so much that words can't really describe it :O

[dvinb12345]

"Ribbed for your pleasure" LOL

[kev123361]

NOOOOOOOO I accidentally hit the dislike button =( I feel bad

[JTshoot]

@kev123361 facepalm, you can hit the like button and it changes... -_-

[Gills3339]

i ate dinosaur the other day i swear it o.o

[juffurey]

have you ever tried using tofu instead of bread crumbs? my mom does that sometimes and it turns out pretty well

[AlcoholLevel]

@juffurey I like using tofu in meatballs... silky soft tofu works best imho (or the softest that can be bought where you live)

[S3844]

PLEASE get on food network :( You're so funny and so good at demonstrating. You're an enjoyment to watch.

[HoeBow21]

i ate barney's meat.

[B0nafideStunna]

i nearly spat out the tea i was drinking laughing at "ribbed for your pleasure"... the touching of that as a little creepy LOL

chef john, you make my day!! xx

[AndreaHatesHerName]

All birds are related to dinosaurs, Chef Jon!

[bayislove]

LMAO... Why did I start cracking up laughing when I saw a picture of Barney!!!

[B0nafideStunna]

@bayislove cos barney is so so creepy ... i reckon he hangs out with pedo bear :P

[mmalrash33d]

The Best thing apart from your brilliant cooking it, when you start your Vids with "HEEEELLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THIS IS CHEF JOHN"... lol

[LOLWUTiOwn]

lol "if you wanna be all Martha Steward"

[wooahkiddo]

@ashesfrombones you're stupid

[GunitForLyfe]

yummy

[degraves2003]

No, it's turkey. It's never as good as beef.

[txsphere]

Chef John smashing my childhood memories. I know I am not the only one whose momma put the can shaped cranberry jelly in a crystal dish on top of iceburg lettuce with the celery leaves hanging off the end. I know my poor white trash is showing, but I do make the good stuff also.

[AnticDispossession]

@txsphere - I really like the jellied can stuff, but I always smush it around so you don't have to look at the can shape.

[MistressDracona]

Ooooh I'm going to have to try this in spaghetti :D Isn't turkey supposed to be leaner than beef?

[sterlingman]

Looks yummy.

[lsvagos]

As delicious as this looks I could never eat meat that is sweet all over... salty + sweet = me throwing up. If the glaze was salty than I would love it. I will make these meatballs and try some other salty sauce on them.

[TheWickedWitchy]

Chef John is the most hilarious and charming chef I know XD I always  smile when I watch those vids.

[Pvemaster2]

Turkey cock!...tail meat, balls!

[mootle927]

yum! definitely going to try these!

[veeBUTT]

"ribbed for your pleasure!"

hahaha.

[michikoww]

@veeBUTT I KNOW RIGHT, I DIED! :))

[GazeRock123]

Gasp... you killed Barney!?

[treatzio5]

yummy!

[TheXcessive]

ribbed for your pleasure xD... nasty

[crabscratch]

now that i know i can't have it ... i really want it (dinosaur meat)

[leifey]

If you follow the current paleontological theory, turkeys technically ARE dinosaurs.

[iloveflavor]

Oh yum! Looks absolutely delicious :) My new video is over meatloaf - guess we both had meat on the brain!
