Eli Cairo can be any meat expert depending on what hat he wears
Jajajajajajaja
What if he is wearing a gimp suit?
Subhopriya Dutta
It’s not a hat, so nothing, he’s just being eccentric
@@subhopriyadutta9906 that's just called being public with your wishes
@@subhopriyadutta9906 Then he becomes an expert at _beating_ his meat.
Seeing Eli utterly confused over veggie sausages is delightful and hilarious
Mashed Illustration nice art dude
I have tried vegetarian grilled duck meat it's really good
Anybody that can say with a stright face "I'm a sausage expert" gets my respect...lmao

Yeah just ask my ex 🙄
🤣🤦🏽♂️😩
Stolen comment but yes, agreed
Straight not Stright
Can we get the guy drawing the background everytime to guess cheap vs expensive chalk?
it’s a woman who does the background! they did a video of her method but chalk episode would be cool too
This is already known who makes the best chalk. Japanese make the best Chalk, unfortunately they are going out of business and professors all around the world (especially in the US) are hoarding chalk like gold. True story - look it up on youtube.
get some hagoromo in here
Why did you think it was a guy
@@RK-ep8qy Guy can be a non-gender specific term.
I love how he gets uncomfortable when he's presented with the veggie sausages. what a lad
ate veggie sausages a few times, taste nothing like sausages, texture is completely off. Not sure why people eat them 😂
the vegetarian meat alternatives are the worst vegetarian food I don’t get it lol
@@YusuphYT Because humans have spent thousands of years adapting culinary culture for meat.
@@mosesb2054 you gotta try cuisine from other countries. there are plenty of dishes traditionally made without meat. they surely taste better than replacing meat dishes with fake meat.
@@Lundy.Fastnet.Irish_Sea true that
I genuinely dont understand (unless for legitimate health problems) people who avoid meat but try to find replacements for it....
What I love about this series is that most of experts do the following:
- Never throw cheaper options under the bus. They always point out the positives and don't make you feel like a lesser person for enjoying some of the cheaper options
- Have a way with making you feel and understand their appreciation for the art.
- Get me to WANT to spend more on these items and truly see them as a treat. Yes I can't buy as much of that item since it sometimes is 3x the price, but I get to enjoy it more.
except veggie sausage
He's even given suggestions on what to make with cheaper options
...sometimes 10x the price, or even 100x like that chocolate bar I'll never try...
Being a foodie and a home chef I like to use higher quality ingredients, however I often make a new dish with cheaper stuff first so I can get the general balance worked out before investing in it. It's also still going to taste epic, it just won't be as complex, which is fine.
And I love the fact that the experts here are not pretentious at all. They truly want to share their knowledge and help others find their way in their field.
I want someone to look at me the way Eli was looking at that blood sausage.
"that's not offensive at all"... About the highest praise for a veggie sausage one could expect from a high end meat connoisseur
So nice to see someone who feels the same as me about the horrors of veggie meat-substitutes.
Eli is a total American gem and should be protected at all costs
@@BoykofanHe makes sausage in the Pacific NW. His ancestors are from Greece though.
Don't tell the vegans. please!

9:52 "Veggie sausages? Guess it goes to show that Epicurious has a sense of humour."
Damn that's gotta burn XD
Explain please
@@manuelfrias7621 What he meant was: veggie sausages are complete jokes. And I wouldn't argue with that, it just goes against the whole point of making/eating a sausage.
Manuel Frias whila what Quan Hua said is a valid point of view, I was specifically referring to the fact that they made a "meat/bacon/sausage expert" eat and rate veggie sausages, which is ironic. Hope this clarifies :D
@@Dylan_Otto explain more please
dojima Eli is a meat expert, but Epicurious gave him vegetables in this show. Imagine you're a business man and someone asks you to solve a medical problem, which is not something a businessman can do, realistically.
"ask your butcher what he's excited about..."
... So, well, I expected some meat suggestion, but went to his daughters talent show and I understand his excitement; she did really well and it was fun to see this man being a proud father.
Thanks for the tip Eli
Now you have a boyfriend
Sooo underrated😂😭😂😭
💀🤣😂😂😂
So he's a Polish cowboy?

P.S. "Papa-rika"
I was raised in a working class home - if it looks familiar, it's the cheaper one :)
And you're still a conformist.
TheGhost why do you think that is? I’m honestly curious. In the USA usually the natural, “real” versions of food are far more expensive as you’ve probably noticed
@TheGhost more distance of average travel in the US and more storing time. Those are the main reasons.
@TheGhost It's simple, things that are brought from other cultures are expensive, most sausages are not part of USA tradition, that's it. European brought sausage to USA and capitalised it in early 20th century, while in Europe sausage roots waaaay deeper for hundreds of years so it is very accessible locally.
@@lawrencescales9864 processed food is just cheaper because its easier and cheaper to make in bulk

Soon he’s gonna shave and be a steak expert

He's wearing a different hat from when he was a bacon expert, though.
His job might be... To know meats yanno
*Changes gender*
BOOM: Meat-less expert
Hmm after watching all the series, i think im a procrastinator expert
Cheap vs expensive procrastination when?
I love how he guesses it would be three times more in price and freaking nails it. And not to mention he knows what pig it comes from and the raising environment from the look of it 🤯
I remember in the cheese episode, she knew what the cheese was, and knew the price of it. I’d be willing to bet that just as professional background knowledge, he knows approximately how much that sausage sells for.
Legendary
His face while forced to analyze and, especially, consume, the veggie sausages. 😂 “Well, there’s something happening here.”
It looked like it had been squeezed out of a dog.
@@crushagrape So pig blood is cool, but at vegetables in sausage casing you draw the line? :D
@@mopsmopped101 Looks are an important part of food. Blood pudding and sausage aren't disgusting visually or to taste, but a 'wrong' coloured vegetable sausage looks bad because we read off-colour as a sign of decay.
@James lmao 'worthless flesh-addicts' you guys come up with the most hilarious attempts at insults.
@James ok if you want to reject your nature and the food that made you smart I'm not hating go for it
He’s my favorite expert. I really like that he respected the veggie sausages, even if they’re not what he prefers.
@Daij What idiot disrespects food? Lol. Many vegans and vegetarians think meat eaters are horrible people and that meat should not be a food option.
@@scott8908 I'd say that's more a politically vegan idea than an all encompassing idea
@@BobBob-et9io Notice I said "many" and not all. So I didn't imply it was an all encompassing idea. In either case, my point was that there are people that disrespect people for how and what they eat. A large portion of vegans are that way because of political ideals and their opposition to the meat industry.
@@scott8908 you can apply that to people who hate meat-eaters that really hate anything related to vegetable
@@scott8908 I think u missed their point. We're omnivores and meat just shouldn't be so bloody convenient the way it is. It isn't sustainable, and it completely tarnishes any sacredness of animal life when you make life flesh a product.
"Smells like a health food store... I dunno like nuts and barley?" is a great explanation I could picture what you meant almost straight away
His reaction to the veggie sausages was hilarious.
Veggie Sausage for the meat expert? epicurious upping their game huh
They gave him turkey bacon last time
@@duckrutt At least turkey is still meat.
it reminds me of the scene with ron and the meatless bacon
A2 Too be fair, they did do a salt one, which was extremely hard. How can you tell the difference between two table salt.
@J .S You know what else does that, getting grill marks on basically everything.
Nitrates are terrible anyway, I hate dogs that are stuffed so full of nitrates I feel as if I could breathe flame.
*Boy, this guy must be proud of his profession*
Tony Stark lmao
Pride month is the best month for sausage experts.
I love it when the experts question themselves like “I believe A is going to be more expensive...right?...yea...cool!” 😂
Fun fact Eli Cairo is basically the human Kirby, he doesn't just wear hats; he finds an expert in a certain field, does the big succ and bada bing bada boom you get a new expert
The entire veggie bit was so good. "Tastes like a health food store."
Freeze-Dried Water 50 years and the only option will be the veggie one. Enjoy the meat and habitable temperatures while they last Bois!
@@jameseden9380 pasture raised beef is the future, they're grass fed and don't destroy the earth, this type of meat won't run out for a long time.
@@davidlee6661 you would need an area of land greater than the size of the United States to produce enough pasture raised beef to meet it's current demands
@@davidlee6661 Not enough for everyone bud. Kinda a dumb statement.
@@ztgregg We'll use less meat and as a way to flavor dishes. Lots of us would be ok with reduced meat, and meat that is from animals allowed to roam. The militant vegans don't think that's good enough, but most of us omnivores would accept a sustainable and limited source of meat.
I wish my wife looked at me the way he ogled the blood sausages.
My wife looks at me the way he looks at veggie sausages...
For real dude. It made me uncomfortable
Ben Barker I wish my husband didn’t look at me the way he looked at these veggie sausages 😭😭
I wish I had a husband.
It's all about the quality of the sausage.
This dude's utter bafflement at the veggie sausage is my favorite part of any of these videos, and I've watched a bunch.
“It’s not offensive at all” while looking like someone just insulted his mother.
I love all the videos with him in them! “Epicurious has a sense of humor” lol.
I RECOGNIZE THIS MISCREANT
BACON EXPERT MOONLIGHTING AS A SAUSAGE AFICIONADO
The meat expert has an alter ego as the bacon expert who wears a hat, and he moonlights as a sausage expert.
@@TheJudge064 hes wearing a hat in this video too.....
@@tntcake6327 It's because it's the bacon expert moonlighting.
I'm pretty sure he moonlights as a UA-cam tech journalist. #bendgate
He's a hunting pheasant expert too
"So what do you do for a living?"
"I'm a sausage expert"
"So what's your favorite position?"
These "Price Points" series are by far my favorite content that you put out! I learn so much watching these videos. Thank you, Epicurious!!!

You won't fool me again Mr Meat! You are just the bacon expert with a lighter hat!
Get him his own show! He's very charismatic, has a ton of knowledge and passion, as well as compassion for the animals he uses, good chemistry when he was in the episodes with Brad on Bon Apettit, he's awesome! I always learn a lot from him.
Hmm what episode are you taking about
@@georget.6382 They go pheasant hunting
@@padraig5335 that wasn't his show dude... he was a guest on matty matheson ,or what ever his name is on vice.
It takes a man with a strong sense of heterosexuality to be able to call himself a sausage expert and say things like "that is a high quality sausage"
or just any man confident in their sexuality enough that they don't feel the need to base every innuendo-esque statement on how straight (or not straight) they are. it's almost as if most people who don't think being gay is a bad thing don't care if what they say "sounds gay".

Editing is way better in this episode. Every cut feels more purposeful, and not as rapid, so I don't feel like I need to throw up any more.
Feels like the sound production is kind of low quality. Kind of echo-y and relatively quiet.
Oh boy the film students are here
@@Coolbillion You don't need to be a film student to notice the bad editing in recent videos.
And why are you actively wanting the series to be worse? The only thing doing something better does is make the thing better. 🤷♂️
The Spirit Puppeteer Why do you think I want the serious to be worse? I just found your comment hilariously pretentious. But that‘s okay. That’s just like the law student who suddenly acts like an attorney or the business student who suddenly thinks he‘s a CEO.
@@Coolbillion Mate, there were hundreds of comments complaining about the editing of the previous episodes.
Love these vids. And, so far, all of the experts have had engaging personalities and provided interesting facts and tidbits about some subjects that could really be dry. Keep up the great work, Epicurious!
I really love these Epicurious comparison videos. There's a little bit of suspense about which is more expensive, but in the end you get a good education about what to look for and watch out for in a food.
Eli on camera: "If I had to go about making a veggies sausage, I would take a real ingredient like white beans or chick peas."
Eli off camera: ""If I had to go about making a veggies sausage, I wouldn't."
Yup, Elias is super knowledgeable and a natural on camera. This series is so entertaining and educational. As much as I *_think_* I know about all the food and beverages featured in these videos, I always learn a great deal. 👍
I love him on Its Alive with Brad as well!! They have a great dynamic
This guy is great. Love his energy. Keep bringing him back.
man i love this guy not at all annoying compared to every other experts. he is humble about his profession, and definitely has respect for those who make different choices. like veggie sausages- which they actually aren’t that bad, opposed to what most people think.
Awesome expert. He was enthusiastic and positive, yet you could feel the fear of guessing wrong haha
Give the man a break! First you give him turkey bacon, and now veggie sausage. 😭
Turkey bacon isnt even half bad
deylan 8 yeah it is full bad
How about giving the animals a break by not killing them.

No one:
Likes this format.
I was waiting for this comment 💀💀
"I really want it to taste like bloood" ok Dracula, calm down.
Hänschen Klein Yeah? So? I mean... you write that... but vegans probably are just as grossed out/unnerved when you talk about meat. You aren’t a cryptid because you’re an omnivore. You want chicken wings to taste like chicken. You want butter for your toast to taste like sweet cream & salt. A lot of people in the USA don’t seem to eat blood sausage. So a lot of people get the heebie jeebies about any sort of “foreign” food. Liverwurst, octopus, eel, cow tongue. I wouldn’t be surprised if that made you gag right now but with proper seasoning & prep, those FOODS are ALL delicious. Lots of things are gonna be gross to you if your diet mainly consists of mcdonalds hamburgers & kraft mac n cheese. I just tried blood sausage for the first time at 33. Had the “cheap” type w/ rice & I loved it. If you become more open minded with what you put in your stomach, you can learn things & have fun while doing it. You may not like everything you try but, that makes it an adventure & a story to tell later. Unless a very microscopic selection of humans make and/eat the food in question, odds are that it’s pretty darn tasty at best & it should never kill you at about the worst. (And before you rebuke, even chicken nuggets can kill you.)
Stephanie Quiroz lmao are you good
@@stephaniequiroz1564 ok
@@stephaniequiroz1564 I could be wrong here, but ops name doesn't seem native to the U.S. I'm just assuming though op could just like the name.
@@cameronyeager7482 OPs Name is german. I guess he is german, austrian or swiss. Germany has a huge "sausage Tradition" we eat a ton of Bloodsausage, Liverwurst and other stuff that could disgust foreigners. But our Bloodsausage has only small bloody aftertase, atleast the ones I ate.
For the veggie sausages, there's a few things you can look for. Things that just have that "bean" or "tofu" flavour are usually just mainly soy or pea proteins, then seasoned with aromatics and onion/garlic. It might have yeast extract in there for the beefiness, but you can still taste the beans. Those are usually cheaper. The more expensive ones have a higher portion of their protein made up by mushrooms and ground nuts.
Like with normal sausages, the shortcuts with using liquid smoke applies.
"Hot bologna texture" was my nickname in High School
XD Eli's face when those veggie dogs came out. It was like he wanted to cry! "Three episodes I've done for these people, sharing my knowledge with the world.... and they subject me to THIS."

I loved the beer expert

these videos are amazing but i wish they would confirm/correct him in the edit whether he's right with the milk powder or the spanish origin or whatever. things like that if he found correct should be said, or the right answer should be put into the edit.
Thats a really good point.... Ive never thought of that, they really do just let the expert say anything under the sun because they are the expert
Dont know about the milk power one, but judging by the price of the blood sausage its most likely iberico
Im new to this channel, but so far, two different experts, both seems very intelligent, down to earth and with great taste of humour.
The “I’m all for it… 😐” on the veggie sausage had me DYING lmaoooo

@@turtle2106 thats a really good idea
Jamal Dabiri it really isn’t. Ingredients can vary from recipe to recipe and pulse prices can range from cheaper from very pricey

@@taleshunter1364 yess.. And told us why it is worth the price
"It's not offensive at all" ...I'd like to know the brands sampled.
It was nice that Eli acknowledged the blood sausage in its uniqueness . I have to go to a Scandinavian shop down the street to get it, but totally worth it!
I really loved his reactions to the veggie sausage. As someone who isn't vegan, but who likes to experiment with mock meats, those texture and flavor descriptions were really useful, honestly.
Eli is so complimentary to both options and so knowledgeable! Love this guy
*Gives Meat Expert a Veggie Sausage*
*Doesn’t give him beyond meat*

Him drooling over the blood sausage was hilarious. So biased right off :D
I will have nightmares of this man saying "more coarser"
Peyton Fowler yesssss
7:48 That little " _Oh yeah_ " shows just how much he likes sausages
So fun to see him get srsly excited about that one blood sausage. Big man
Love how frank but supportive he was with the vege sausages :)
