    My God...that grill. It's like a dream come true. Heston, man...wasn't expecting you to come through like that. Great job.

    Thanks Munchies for bringing Heston on! I've been saying for years he needs to be more know in North America. He's a culinary legend but, for me he's hands down the most entertaining chef of ALL TIME. Hope he gets a Mind of a Chef or Chef's Table in the future. For those who don't know who Heston is, try to search for some of the shows he's done on British TV. I would start with In Search of Perfection(best pure cooking show of all time) then Heston's Feasts(most entertaining), then watch all his other stuff. If you like cooking you will be inspired.

    - A huge grill
    - A souvlaki skewer
    - Friends

      get the small skewers and a small hibachi grill for the kitchen...then you don't need friends or even chicken you can use any meat and eat it all to yourself. Duck is the closest to chicken

    At least this recipe doesn't require a PhD in chemistry, the USA military budget for ingredients and the lifespan of a star to marinate or refrigerate things.

    • @applejar7240
      @applejar7240 6 років тому

      @@GrowingDownUnder lol show me evidence or a shred of proof stating Gordon ramsay can't cook heston best dishes that's absolute rubbing keep pulling shit out ur ass.. For starters ramsay has apprenticed and classically trained under arguably one of the best chefs of all time marco pierre white, whilst heston couldn't finish an apprenticeship because he felt above it when he clearly couldn't hack it, ramsay has earnt more Michelin stars which is the best guide to restauranteuring in the world and don't start with the molecular gastronomy nostalgia shit heston does most people don't like it and having eaten at his fat duck restaurant in Melbourne it was average at best and he even had to close a restaurant down for mass food poisoning.. The techniques he uses are not super magical given a recipe ramsay would easily use the same techniques and do a better job most likely, heston claim to fame is a bacon sandwich with no crust on white bread

    • @GrowingDownUnder
      @GrowingDownUnder 6 років тому

      you just have to look at the dishes heston makes to know that, he creates his own dishes from 20+ years of experience using techniques which take longer than 5 years to master. A good example of this was his blown sugar dishes, as far as I know gordon has never made or shown his ability to blow sugar. That's only 1 of many things heston can do considering as he does food science and molecular gastronomy he's basically a scientist when it comes to food where as gordon just cooks traditional recipes that he learned from macro pierre white basically french, english & italian but no molecular gastronomy background for gordon.

    • @GrowingDownUnder
      @GrowingDownUnder 6 років тому

      if you ask most the top chefs in the world who they think is the best they will say heston, even masterchef they get heston to create the hardest dishes for a pressure test because he can make dishes harder than even the best chefs in the world. Just please go look at the menu for hestons fat duck restaurants it speaks for itself

This man is a genius... even if he gets ridiculed for his excessive, prolonging techniques. He knows what he's doing. If you have the patience and want to treat yourself or someone to a good breakfast. Find his scrambled egg recipe. I make it as a treat for the Mrs's every once and awhile and give it to her in bed. The breakfast that is. And then I get my treat =)

    Loved the recipe. Cant wait to try it out. I do think Heston has maybe had a bit too much Brooklyn 'cheer'. He does sound a bit pissed; or drunk as we say over the pond. I've seen loads of his vids and his speech does sound slurred a bit. Not his usual style, but hey, who doesn't enjoy a drink or 7 whilst cooking for mates?
