Just made this and it was freaking amazing, better than the best dirty rice I've ever had at a restaurant. Just used mild Tennessee pride instead of hot. Make sure everything is sitting near you ready to go, it goes fast and even though everything was sitting nearby I was hustling and ended up soaking with sweat, lol. For the leftovers tomorrow, I will throw in a bunch of grilled shrimp into it. Still amazed at how griddles cook just about anything you throw on it super good and tasty.
Neil I’m a noob in the flat top world and I’ve learned so much from your videos. I look forward to your videos and have actually made chicken fried rice on my flat top. Thank You for the great videos. Ron
Neal you had me nervous when I read the heading but once I saw the ingredients you totally redeemed yourself 💯%!! Livers, trinity, and the pope!! You nailed it!!🤤🤤🤤
I appreciate that...many asked why the chicken livers...most were tuned off by it...only thing I could think of was....in the old days many poor people got the scrapes or less attractive meat options...like the idea of slaves making chitlinens...its what they had and made the most of it....I would think that the livers are the same....any ideas
Good morning Neil & Amy. Like fried rice, I love a good Cajun rice also. By the look on your face when you tasted it, I guess I'll have to try me some of that. GRIDDLE ON DUDES.
Cajun rice has always been one of my favorites. Popeys mostly. They stopped carrying it. If you make a big batch do you think it would freeze in portions ok? Just curious. Great perspective by the way. Thanks for sharing
This looks super good. What was the idea behind the chicken livers? For a little funkiness? One time visiting NYC I was at a somewhat fancy restaurant and one of their top selling sides was polenta topped with a chicken liver pate and it was delicious. I've tried incorporating them in the past, but I've not had a ton of success. Looks like a great recipe to try!
I'm divided on this one. Can't do the livers. I use that for catfish bait around here. We sub in a little anchovies in these cases. I know it's not authentic, but it's good. Nice job, looks really good.
Boss, you may have outdone yourself with this dish. Did I miss when the garlic went in? Good reason to watch again. You always say, " You do you" so I'd pass on the livers but that dish looks stupid good. 😋 👏 👏 👏
Crazy that I don't like rice. Except for red beans & rice, and Gumbo. Native Texan, and don't at all care for Spanish or Mexican rice, and won't eat a "burrito" that has rice in it. However. This looks really good. Will be on the menu in mi casa soon.
I am Cajun and from Louisiana. I do not like “traditional” dirty rice because it is too dry for my liking. I’d probably prefer this one to the traditional version. And yes, chicken liver is an acquired taste by itself. Cooked down in dishes such as this helps pull out some of the undesired flavors. Great job!!
I've only had fried chicken livers and I really don't like them but what do they do for this dish? I'm asking because them being mixed in with all the other protein, do they add salt or fat or something else? Would this version of dirty rice be just as good without them?
I honestly liked my other rice cooker...this has never disappointed me....but it takes longer....if I had to guess...I think it might cook the rice a little longer as well...BUT its bigger and im splitting hairs
If you serve the jerk chicken from your recent video with this cajun rice as the side, Jamaican people will be like, "What?!?!" And cajun people will be like, "Oh hell naw!" 😁 Looks delish!!!
Being an Aussie, I don't get why it's called "dirty". I've seen other dishes called "dirty something". We have "dirty chai coffee" here. I don't get why it's called that, but I don't drink coffee. Apparently it's very popular! I would omit the bell peppers because they are disgusting. Don't like chicken livers at all (although I do like lamb liver, go figure!). However, that looked absolutely, 150% DIVINE! Between you, and 3 or 4 other cooking channels, I never have to worry about, what am I making for dinner tonight. I just look at a video or 2 and that's tomorrow night's dinner taken care of! This one is definitely going on the list because I absolutely love anything rice that's fried. Thanks for yet another awesome video! Cheers to you both from Down Under.
I appreciate that...I would think the livers give the rice a dirty look or the idea that many people who like livers looked dirty...remember this is an old idea/recipe.....many poor people made fantastic food with what ever ingredients they had available or could afford
The term “dirty” in this dish refers to using organ meat, the liver is a traditional protein for this meal. Your boudin “rice sausage” will also have liver in it.
If it doesn’t have ground chicken or pork liver,, it ain’t even close to our South Louisiana dirty rice! Anything less is just rice with stuff mixed in it. Love your channel brother!!!
Neal... Love your videos but you freak me out when you are diceing up stuff and you speed the video up. If I had a dollar for every time I have cut myself when diceing up onions and other stuff I could probably go out a make a good down payment on a 36" Blackstone griddle with the air fryers. I guess being a former Navy culinary chef you learn how to dice with out cutting yourself. I can only imagin how good this look. I'm a big fan of Popeye's but I don't think their Dirty Rice holds a candle to what you have just made. I'm originally from Lousiana but even down there it isn't as good as your recipe.

I got my griddle about a week ago. Thanks to your videos I’m busting out great meals for my family and feeling confident. It’s great fun to cook with.
That is awesome!
Your version of cajun dirty rice is a keeper. Nice job.Looks so delicious!!!😅
TY
awesome recipe , I got on the rice cooker band wagon years ago , best purchase I ever made !!
and veristle...we use it for cheese dips...and warming soups..etc
Was just talking about this last night. Thanks for a great recipe Neil and Amy. Stay safe and keep up the great videos , Fred.
Chicken livers ROCK! ...but then again ...so do chicken hearts and gizzards! Great vid!!!
Absolutely....love them all when fried
Neil I’m a noob in the flat top world and I’ve learned so much from your videos. I look forward to your videos and have actually made chicken fried rice on my flat top.
Thank You for the great videos. Ron
Hey really appreciate that...cheers
Neal you had me nervous when I read the heading but once I saw the ingredients you totally redeemed yourself 💯%!! Livers, trinity, and the pope!! You nailed it!!🤤🤤🤤

I could eat that whole griddle!!! And I'm with Amy, I'm not a lover of liver, but that looks like heaven!!! Excellent dude!!! 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
Awesome, Neal! I happen to be a fan of liver, so I'd love this. Great mix of the different proteins, that final dish had to be perfect!
Thanks bud....
Good morning Neil & Amy. Like fried rice, I love a good Cajun rice also. By the look on your face when you tasted it, I guess I'll have to try me some of that. GRIDDLE ON DUDES.
I cannot WAIT to cook this!
Appreciate that...
Love liver! My fav, liver n onions, mashed potatoes, cornbread! Suzie in Tn
to be honest..me as well...if calf liver...brown gravy and bacon..if chicken livers...fried and hot sauce
it helps to have the right tools to work it..thanks looks great..N Carolina
Looked great to me. Congrats on all of your success and awesome food ideas.
Hey Terry....hope all is well....been around for a while and truly appreciate ya....cheers
I need to season my grill asap. Thank you for your video 🫡
Absolutely
You added the most important item. The chicken liver. Otherwise it’s what we call rice dressing! Perfect job from a Louisiana guy.
Hey I appreciate that...
This also looks very good guys. It does look like fried rice. THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA.....
Wow that looks good!
That looks amazing, great job
Thank you! Cheers!
Looks awesome nicely done
TY
looking forward to trying this! I hope you brought a few friends over to help eat all that!! Lol!
so dang goood....we have great neighbors and family....always willing to help oout
I dig it! 👊🏻
Appreciate it! Hope all is well...
Collab for more Cajun dishes on the griddle?!?
@@JeremyKnight42 one day imma head up there
Awesome job Neal! Minus the chicken livers 😆. Definitely looks delicious! Have an awesome week! Cheers 🍻
Thanks! You too!
Its not dirty rice without them. Try some authentic dirty rice and see if you like it. Its not as good without them, IMO.
Definitely will try!
Well done, I have not made this on the griddle at all so it has to be tried when the recipe gets up cause I won't remember, ha.
😋😋😋 ❤ this show! Ur the bomb! Y'all rock!
Awesome thanks
I wish I had your chopping skills!
like anything...the more you do it...the better you get...many things I wish I could do better...
Those knife skills are on another level😂😂😂
ahhahah good ole fast forward...
Love the chicken livers!!!
Looks good! I like to add bacon when I make dirty rice. I haven’t made it on the griddle but I think it’s going to happen in the future.
Hope you enjoy
Fantastic dirty rice. Always a favorite in our house. I'll have to try adding chicken livers next time👍😊
Amy is definitely not a fan.....and she loved it..honestly you cant tell its in there...
Its like Boudin sausage without the casings. Pig liver would work cool. Very cool gonna try this.
Hope you enjoy
With chicken livers, that helps qualify your dish as the real deal! Way to go Neal!
TY
The dirty rice looks excellent.. I can’t lie those griddles seem to be pretty good..
Hey Neil, I'm from SW Louisiana and it looks tasty to me. Stuff it in a casing and smoke it and you have FTK Cajun Boudin! Ayee!
Heck yeah..thanks
while it may not be traditional dirty rice, it still looks mighty tasty
Cajun rice has always been one of my favorites. Popeys mostly. They stopped carrying it. If you make a big batch do you think it would freeze in portions ok? Just curious. Great perspective by the way. Thanks for sharing

Apart from the very delicious food, your knife skills are 🔥 👍
I appreciate that
Best sausage that's commonly available maybe. Gotta make your own :)
I have been wanting to try it out...bought the huge grinder and barley use it...I want to smoke the breakfast sausage
I miss Tennessee pride sausage so much. As soon as you said that my mind said “Take home a package of Tennessee pride!” Great cook as always ❤
ahahahah I need to buy stock
Flat top dump rice😂 looks good😋
Boss, you may have outdone yourself with this dish. Did I miss when the garlic went in? Good reason to watch again. You always say, " You do you" so I'd pass on the livers but that dish looks stupid good. 😋 👏 👏 👏
Absolutely....when the meat and vegetable mixture was pushed to the side making way for the rice....I added the garlic and livers at the same time....
King! When you getting that weber slate for a review?!
Man...I thought last week...but hopefully this week...pins and needles for sure..
Yes sir you did that.That dirty rice looks like the bomb 💣 delicious 😋❤😅 Thank you!
Neal lookin’ good with all ingredients up until the liver! We will pass on the liver! I will add this to my rotation list….thanks! Nicely done mate!
Thanks Paul...

Interesting....Hope you enjoy....
Damn! You sure added a ton of meat. I think I will give this a go. When adding the chicken livers I think some chopped shrimp also would be bomb.
Yeah I would think so as well....cheers

Ty...i was surprised how much Amy liked it...I know I did
I've only had fried chicken livers and I really don't like them but what do they do for this dish? I'm asking because them being mixed in with all the other protein, do they add salt or fat or something else? Would this version of dirty rice be just as good without them?
2 great vids today
TY kindly
I hate liver. Will try this without that. I need a rice cooker. Do you like the one you are using there? Thanks in advance!
I honestly liked my other rice cooker...this has never disappointed me....but it takes longer....if I had to guess...I think it might cook the rice a little longer as well...BUT its bigger and im splitting hairs
Well, I was on board until the chicken livers showed up.... I guess they could be optional in my version. Thanks for another great video & recipe.
Looks delicious, I will pass on the chicken livers though…..but looks amazing!
If you serve the jerk chicken from your recent video with this cajun rice as the side, Jamaican people will be like, "What?!?!" And cajun people will be like, "Oh hell naw!" 😁
Looks delish!!!
hahahahah very true
Flexing on the knife skills!
hahaha
Spatula/scraper in left hand. Where to get this?
Traeger...if interested its listed below...
Love dirty rice!
Some andouille would be fantastic in that
Yes it would...cheers
A little okra would have been nice. Not sure if you like it or not but I think it would have been another ingredient that would fit.
Absolutely
Missing that burnt meat at the bottom of the pot, that makes dirty rice next level, this is more of a fried rice.
I think I'll try gizzards instead
Gulf Coast Fried Rice?
Have not heard of that...any tips
Being an Aussie, I don't get why it's called "dirty". I've seen other dishes called "dirty something". We have "dirty chai coffee" here. I don't get why it's called that, but I don't drink coffee. Apparently it's very popular!

I appreciate that...I would think the livers give the rice a dirty look or the idea that many people who like livers looked dirty...remember this is an old idea/recipe.....many poor people made fantastic food with what ever ingredients they had available or could afford
Now for me I would leave the chicken liver out
It really makes the dish...I don't eat chicken livers but they are so good in this.
Nice video but what's up with the chicken livers??????
The term “dirty” in this dish refers to using organ meat, the liver is a traditional protein for this meal. Your boudin “rice sausage” will also have liver in it.
Looks pukka mate, but no liver for me, only my opinion, but great looking dish👍🏻👍🏻😎🏴
TY
Lots of meat/protein is Always Good...
You lost me at chicken livers .. 😜🤢
Some like it and some dont...my wife hates em as well...she loved the dish...
Don’t use them 🤟✅
I think I’ll just try this with chicken thighs 🍻@@TheFlatTopKing
lol...me too... I cook them weekly....but only to add to my dog's meals...other than that, love it.
If it doesn’t have ground chicken or pork liver,, it ain’t even close to our South Louisiana dirty rice! Anything less is just rice with stuff mixed in it. Love your channel brother!!!
Neal... Love your videos but you freak me out when you are diceing up stuff and you speed the video up.

hahahah like anything the more you do it...the better you get...I appreciate the kind words...cheers
Can't help but feel some diced tomato is needed in there. (In the beef)
