Looks more like a frittata than carbonara. With heavier sauces, I'd be more inclined to use a sturdier pasta; stuff like angel hair and linguine can all too easily become mush. I'd also swap out most of the cheese and ham steak for sauteed mushrooms.
Oh my goodness, if this ain't comfort food, I don't know what is! Looks delicious, I'll have to try this soon. Thanks so much, and nice hat!!! Peace and Good :0)
Wow... Hi, Dave. Always great to see one of your cooking videos go up. I realize that real life is more important than YouTube and you must have lots of things going on. I just wanted to let you know that your recipes and videos are always appreciated when they do go up though.
Dave, this is one of my all time favorite dishes!!! thank you so much. Having said that, I purchased a pretty nice set of cast iron pots/pans and I loathe them :( What am I doing wrong? E V E R Y T H I N G sticks. It could be that I am now cooking on electric (which I hate) and just can't get a handle on the heat...Any suggestions or advice because everything you make in cast iron looks so NUMMY!
@livelovelaughmore Yes, you need to fry in it and then cook an egg, if the egg sticks, fry in it some more. I fry in my pans all the time!! Use vegetable oil. It is vegetanle oil?

@livelovelaughmore I imagine Dave will tell you that the pans need to be seasoned. I think he still has a video about that somewhere. I have a cast iron pan that has been seasoned over three generations, and nothing much will stick to it.
@livelovelaughmore If the surface is really rough (many new iron skillets are too rough IMO), you might want to sand it down a bit with 260 or 320grit. Clean thoroughly, and then season with butter. Put some butter in it while warm and spread it around evenly. Let it sit on a low burner for 30 min, then cool. Repeat that process a few times, maybe five times, and the iron will absorb the fat, seasoning it. Then fry in it, a lot. Clean with only cold water and a paper towel, dry thoroughly.
@livelovelaughmore After wrinsing & drying I like to put mine on the burner to warm it up for 5-10 min, to make sure it's really dry. Then re-apply butter or veg oil to the surface, spread with paper towel, warm for a few min and set it aside. Over time it'll get dark and black and slick the way you want it.
A benefit of iron is it's a lot easier to use on electric because it retains heat, as opposed to stainless and copper (and even aluminum) that falls flat when you put anything in it.
@livelovelaughmore Oh and one more technique... coat the cooking surface in Crisco or lard, and bake it in the oven, really low, for an hour or so. Repeat that a couple times, and you'll get all that fat down into the iron to season it good.
It takes time with cast iron even with the pre seasoned stuff. If its fatty, cook it with cast iron always. Clean with hot water and wipe it out then reuse. Its not as clean as you might expect but no ill effects on my end and food is incredible along with non stick over time.
Hey Dave, glad to see the videos coming thick and fast. You need a bigger cast iron skillet! Looks like a tasty carbonara though, I think I'll try to make it with some thicker pasta :)
Don't worry too much jaybobed...in Europe those leaves would cost me at least $5...at least. And Norwegians love bacon and bacon grease, so I'm making this for the family!!! I finally found a purpose for that cast iron pan my husband has. Ha ha!
It's really nothing like spaghetti when your done. Don't get me wrong it looked like a tasty carb and fat mush but I almost felt my insulin spike just looking at it. Looks like something I've love to eat when I'm really drunk ; )
I'm Italian and I say that looks pretty damn good! It doesn't have to be like my or anyone else's Gramma's recipe to be good!
Gotta love "incognito dog" Steve! He's one rad dog! I wanted to ask you about El Gato...did he move to New Mexico with you too? The last we saw of him he was sick...had an injury on his neck...and he was mad because he wanted to go outside.
@kingofalldoughboys I agree that it doesn't have to be like anyone else's recipe. If everyone made it the same way we'd only need one video for it on Youtube. Dave has his own style and we watch his videos to see him cook his way.
@kingofalldoughboys Gato got better, then a few months later he went for one of his prowls and never came back. He has been gone for about two years. I saw on David Lettermen, his moms cat was gone for two years and then came back. I have my neighbors looking out for him back home. He probably found someone that feeds him better? I hope?
@ndktube I'm thinking the same thing. In fact, I don't use angel-hair pasta very often, if at all b/c to me, it cooks wayyy too fast, and then turns out overdone and sticky. A thicker type of spaghetti would've worked better for this dish, IMO, but as Dave says, cooking is about what you like, so, to each his own, I guess.
You put the world's greatest spaghetti western chef to shame. BU-BAM!! all up in there.
