He's a United Kingdom born Person and he's apparently in America and he's trying Texas barbecue for the first time Now the reason I'm doing this is because I'm genuinely excited for this dude I know there ain't no good barbecue in the UK. I know there's not there's no way There's just no way and I've talked to several people. They said there's no good barbecue in the UK Like comparatively speaking like there's no there's probably a lot of stuff that we don't have that y'all got that's Phenomenal and just barbecue is just that for us when it comes to y'all Like I know it's not good. I know y'all put y'all best foot forward in effort But it ain't good Talk to me Randy. I'm a little bit all over the place today But the plan is I've been to Texas a few times. Okay, and I've never been to have barbecue I've never done it. So everyone's recommended me to go to this place called Terry's black Terry blacks barbecue I think it's called so I'm gonna go there and try that first of all today I didn't just come here for a slice of pizza to like, you know So cook the hangover or whatever or pizza in Texas Okay, you know, whatever you want to call it, but then I forgot about the barbecue So I'm gonna go to the barbecue and then there's a I'm not on a gym yet I might go later, but I'm gonna go and walk around so there's a river here It's like a two-hour walk to get all the way around it So I thought it's like the main bit of exercise today. I'll just go do that It seems like a really nice thing to do and for the vlog as well, but it isn't a rain, but I'm British I don't really care. Um, thanks. Well first of all, I'm gonna try this barbecue I never have done it before and it needs to be done. Also, I just looked at aesthetic here as well It just looks like it's just so sick Look at all this Everyone on the discord is wanting me or asking me or like literally shouting at me to go and get a hat like a Texas hat and There's a hat shop right here, so I'm tempted to do it But I'm thinking I can't put it in my suitcase because it's gonna ruin it because my suitcase is already full I'm not gonna wear it on the plane back, right? I don't really need a hat or want a hat But I'll check it out and we'll see maybe maybe I'll do it. Okay. Maybe here it is. Look. Do I do it? That is a question. Do I do it? Texas hat shop Also, I'm really confused right because I've been looking at the things to do in Austin and everything that I keep reading about Always recommends going to see that. I love you so much mural mural. I'm not gonna lie to you, Randy. I Appreciate the tour of Texas But let's can we get to the barbecue because I'm happy for you. I'm genuinely happy for you But I just want to see this moment. That's it. We don't okay. Okay. It wasn't too long I've never personally had Texas barbecue, but Chicago is like They have every genre of food and they do it well there is Texas style barbecue But there's also Midwest style barbecue, which I really like there's there's levels to barbecue across America There's different regions and things that are barbecue warm you up and so be you please I love it. I just work typical barbecue joint. Yeah, no alcohol for me. No alcohol All right, I'm gonna put the camera away and then update you as I go face is serious man Serious place Probably I've never done this the first time doing barbecue. Let's go This is a chain in Texas I've no idea what to order though. So you pick a side Green corn sounds cool. Mac and cheese on cream corn does not sound cool. What are you talking about? Was all I will go mac and cheese I asked her you got potatoes have it like what's the normal amount to get and she said this Like it's like $60. I'm not sure if you thought I was eating on my own or like with a family something By the way, I'm sure I'm doing this wrong. You know, you're in Texas. Everything is big in Texas I'm sure like I'm gonna get comments of people saying are you not doing it right? You know, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I know Not from here. I'm on my own. I'm Riding solo, you know, but it is try this. Let's try this. Okay Pick it up with your hands my boy. You fork a knife in it. You got to get that all as one bite I've got brisket, right? No, you did it wrong This is you got to get the fat and the meat at the same time pause So you left the fat at the bottom the smoke ring down here down here And then there's some fat up top and then there's a meat right there. You got to get it all in one bite That's why you don't use for tonight me personally. Oh my god. Wow. It's gonna be good Pause oh Boy and beef ribs Bro pick it up by the bone dog, Nandy Try it and y'all ask me and on twitch like I'm not on twitch on on on What's that? Tick tock y'all be asking me. Oh, how come you don't use a fork and knife because For what? Everything is finger food here. It's good. Ain't it? Talk to me Randy. That's amazing. Wow. What the hell? I ain't gonna lie. You're gonna piss me off with this fork and knife, but continue It's my first time and how about I haven't had this before Like guys, I'm gonna enjoy this and get back to you. Go ahead. They all told me by the way there's a free tour of all like the Smokehouse in the back. So I'm gonna go try it out after the camera and vlog it. What a day system out to be Let's go. By the way, I'm sure it finished this He gave me so much. Look at that. Oh, it's so good though You didn't even eat the macaroni and cheese or the string beans. You gotta tell us how that was The macaroni, I'm not gonna lie. It looked trash. I'm just being real string beans. Okay There's string beans. You can't really go wrong with them But me I would have probably chose baked beans and now that I see this macaroni I wouldn't have chosen I would have choose like some coleslaw Maybe if y'all got coleslaw not coleslaw. I'm tweaking potato salad. I made potato salad Those are the two sides I would have picked It's so good though, but like, okay Shall I do it? Shall I keep going? All right, that that that okay So although you need to eat barbecue like a like a like a nomad just pick it up. It is unreal. It's amazing I cannot finish it. I cannot I've tried my hardest. I'm so full. I feel like I'm gonna burst man But it's really good. I asked for one Normal size. I guess this is that's normal. I'm clearly not getting that bean with my forecomer. Okay Anyway, what I'm trying to say to you guys is I can't finish it. I feel bad for wasting it. If I want this come I leave it here. Take it to go What you mean? What are you talking about? Do y'all not have like to-go boxes in the UK? But no, anyway, right? Cheers. Cheers. Here we go. I wish I would pay $60 and leave that on the table. You got me Ben I'm taking everything home I'm gonna go home and make a short rib sandwich later. You know what I'm saying? You make the food here? Is that stupid question? Come on, Randy. Okay. Wow, okay Wow He sounds just like Hank Hill. Good job. Just try it now. My first time having barbecue It's to me first time having barbecue. Well, I'm from the UK. I'm from the UK. Well, we have barbecue in the UK But it's different about using what you got. Okay. Sure. Sure. This is how you do it You know, yes, it is. Stop lying to them Yes, it is. It's about using the local wood Local proteins and the indigenous cooking methods of the region. That's why it's always a different show. No matter where in America I don't even think they got I don't even know I heard there's no good barbecue. That's all I'm gonna say. There you go. Yeah So here our local wood is host oak. Okay wood is so abundant They say we'll run out of cows before we run out of this tree Wow, we'll burn up two of these cages on a slow day three on a busy day every Friday They bring us 18 more changes of host oak. Wow We got that name post oak. Farmers and sellers cowboys used to use that tree to make fence posts because it's really strong It goes really straight. Bro, something like bobby boo shit of you And the branches shoot off at the top We used the wood because of very mild smoke content wood This wood being the reason that smokes out the first thing that you taste Yeah, he's back there cooking. I know he can cook. I know that's the I know the meat portion of the food there is great if he cooking it Barbecue show show we smoked up brisket for 12 hours to be crib eight hours. Anybody you see with with this And it can neck right here and then it don't got this part They can cook 100 and we always have a team of guys here Yeah, barbecuing 24 hours a day. We never stopped Yeah, we never stopped any day any time. We always got here barbecuing Awesome right now H Have you ever like listen? I've had there's people This I've talked to people that have been to america and to the uk Well, obviously they're from the uk And they've been to america and they had the barbecue and they had american barbecue florida style barbecue And they said there's no comparison Now that now they know that barbecue in the uk is not good because it doesn't taste nothing like You know what I'm saying and I'm not saying that that that that your barbecue is not good It's just when you've tasted barbecue that's great And you go taste something that's not as good Then what am I supposed to say? Just like the the girl who told me the barbecue was great that your barbecue wasn't good She said it Her palette was used to the uk barbecue and she had this and her eyes was open She had an epiphany Oh, okay It's an all-day process too, which is crazy So this brisket right here like I said it went on a six this morning So it's a seven and a half hours into the 12 hour cook Eventually when I get them perfect, I'll put them in this butcher paper right here And I'll spend them 180 degrees so the flat can face the fire right now doing the big end force the fire Because it's big it's gonna need more time to get there. Um, like I said, I'm gonna make dude It's a chemist. I I knew he could cut everything's perfect before I put it in that paper by that I mean the bark set up the fat surrendered the colors exactly how I like it Everything's how I want it before I put it in that paper. Um, people always want to know. Well, what temp what time? And I could tell you a temp or a time, but I'm not I'm gonna lead you astray if I'm doing it. Yeah. Yeah, this gotta come from the heart You know what I'm saying? It is a field thing So uh every couple hours I get in here and I pick them all up one by one and just rearrange them According to how they're cooking because it's full of hot spots full of cold spots Only way I can get it more evenly is to pick them up and put them where they need to be And you picked them up with tongs, yeah No, I would never touch them with tongs. I have gloves in my pocket I put these gloves over these gloves and then put more of these gloves on top of these gloves And then I pick them up one by one. I'll lay out paper set them on the paper do whatever if I grab If you grab them with tongs, they're probably a break apart, right? If you grab them with tongs they rip all this stuff apart. We have a whole beef and this joker You gotta grab over here. This one my sausage is looking like like a baby I get it. I get it. This is all calculated. You can't just go in there and there's, you know, tongs something. You know what I'm saying? Sausage is a different game I'm not getting in here moving it around when I set it up. I just got set it up for one of it touches We use a real case and so if it touches it's not going to get the smoke It's going to stay all fake and it's going to look gross So the main thing is I make sure nothing touches in here when you set it up before I start it So I have a tin stick with a sausage. It's not as much of a field game. I was bad at the taste Straight smoke sauce. It just looks amazing I don't even eat stuff shaped like that, but I that you know what I'm saying, but like if they cut it up I'll partake I can call it a river it's a lake Ladybird Lake I'm just going to try and do a loop around it or just walk for an hour or two. Um, oh, no, no, no, no Randy salute. I salute what you're doing I congratulate you on finally getting some real barbecue in your system.
