The best thing about this guy's channel is that there is no overproduction. No crazy cuts no stupid music. Just pure and simple cooking at its finest. Thank you chef Pierre
Amen, I can’t stand the videos where they play annoying music or stop what they’re doing and waste 10 minutes talking about their dog or aunt Thelma or other stuff nobody cares about and just trying to drag out the video to get more viewing minutes. I usually just shut them off 🤷♂️.
You mister, are a a Bob Ross of cooking world. Your voice is delightful. You are so passionate about cooking. People like you make the world a better place.
Absolutely. A bright light in our world right now. Because of this damn virus I am watching youtube more often and learning a few cool things from experts like this loquacious genius.
Yes, I was hungry half way through the show before he even cooked the meatloaf. I just love these cooks that share their expertise with neophytes like me. They show how we can make simple foods that taste great.
Try making it! I don't eat/do meatloaf. Ever. Disgusting. His is just fantastic. If you aren't a cook, it will be a bit time consuming, but the combination of ingredients is really, really amazing. Even my son, who despises meatloaf more than I do loved it. He briefly suggests trying it cold the next day. I honestly think the cold version is better than the fresh, hot! So, on to his chicken version. Seriously, get the ingredients together, get a loaf pan, and make it.
There is a HUGE DIFFERENCE, it's very obvious that this man has not only been in a kitchen for years but he also has taught those in his kitchen. This is what a Head Chef is & does. Much respect.🔪
When he adds more breadcrumbs, I feel like he's trying to convey to newer cooks that there's no need to be stressed about portions. This guy is truly an amazing instructor
Chef Jean Pierre cooks with such passion and effort that seems so naturally... seems like he's doing this for 54 years...oh, wait a second @Chef, you are trully the best!
Once again I prepared this delicious Meatloaf. I had some leftover meat but instead of freezing I fried it the next day and had a tortilla wrap with some of the leftover glaze. It was to die for. 80% of my meals are a version of your recipes. I am so gratefully I discovered your channel. Your right cooking should be fun. God Bless.
I have been a Chef for 22 years, 54 years? For you to have been in the industry for so long, even before I was even born, I love your passion for creating delicious dishes, and it inspires me to keep going. Because cooking is not hard. "Even a child could do it" . You make me smile after a 14 hour day. Thank you Chef.
I've only done a 40 stretch, not sure I'd like to cook in front of a camera, but cooking always makes me smile, especially now I'm not in the commercial trade anymore. Hope I'm still smiling in another 14 years. 😆
Amazing! I lived 2 blocks from Las Olas Blvd in the 80's..The Left Bank was our favorite place to dine! I remember the beautiful green glass bottle wall. So happy to have found you
Made this recipe for a birthday dinner along with mushroom gravy and mashed potatoes. Everyone wanted to know where I bought it, as it was amazing!! The wow factor was through the roof and it looked just like yours did. Thank you, Chef!! Dinner was at six and everyone headed home early to pass out from the delicious meal. I'm leaving this comment at 8:30pm and feeling like a winner 🏆!
I just had to say hi after reading your comment of 6 months ago! That's just a nice story, I think people would entertain more I'd they just made yummy food, not fancy, it's all about the company! My neighbors across the street only buy expensive beef, and he smokes it. Their food is always amazing, but I just can't afford to cook that way. I've decided they'll just have to eat a nice pasta dish, or a seafood chowder, and we'll have a great time!
When I get invited to dinner at a friend's house I bring a dish from one of his videos. The amount of invitations have tripled thanks to this guy. He works magic with his kitchen and I learned that cooking is therapeutic as well. Just don't burn the expensive stuff. Thanks Chef
This guy is eccentric in a way that's so incredibly charming. Love how passionate and unapologetic he is about how much he loves what he's doing. Thank you Jean-Pierre! Looking forward to learning some more from you. :D
@@ChefJeanPierre you're sense of humor competes with your cooking skills chef , we like you very, very much... my style of cooking....greetz from Belgium . I'm so happy i've found your vid's, merci and grazie chef !
Best things that happened in 2020: Every video from Chef Jean-Pierre. Amazing. What a great guy. Edit: Unless you've been a chef for 54 years I would suggest frying off a spoonful of the meat loaf mix before you put it in your mould, so you can taste it for seasoning. humble suggestion.
I am a chef of 12 years and I trust my hands, eyes, and nose to tell me if it is right when the dish is dangerous to taste before finished. Hasn't failed me yet.
Exactly, especially the nonsense about not over mixing. If you don't incorporate the ingredients into a mix, the meatloaf will taste like crap. Plus another reason the chef doesn't have to worry about over mixing is through the sauteed onions, carrots and buttermilk will provide moisture to the mix preventing the over mixing BS
Love the fact someone is finally pointing out that 90% of "chefs" on UA-cam are constantly spouting misinformation. This is my new favourite cooking channel by a mile!
You are the first chef I've seen recommend making food for a neighbor. Growing up in Louisiana, my Momma, Nanny, Mameires, all my aunts, they all prepared food for sick and elderly folks who lived nearby. I've lived in New York, New Jersey, Kansas, Virginia, Florida and Texas and I've never seen such a thing done. You're teaching great values with your great recipes!! Thank you!!
My stomach was growling and I was salivating while watching this. My wallet, on the other hand, was crying. Great video as always, Chef. You're 110% right that making good food with good ingredients isn't magic. I would add that the level of love we put into even the simplest of dishes can be a game-changer. You're an inspiration Chef. Teachers like you are why I fell in love with cooking before I was tall enough to reach the burners on a cooktop.
I made this tonight for my dad’s 80th birthday…Everyone was giving compliments one after another (also made my brother chef’s chicken with mushroom&spinach sauce…amazing as well!) Chef, thank you so much for elegant and undemanding recipes and for being an amazing instructor. Not only do I learn from the recipes, but I learn from watching your techniques and then hone my skills. Jack, thank you for the skillful editing, camera magic and the ability to create such useful content. I owe you both my sincere gratitude. I’m looking forward very much to continuing to learn from the content. Thanks again 👊
When I was 5 years old my Grand Mother who came from Ireland was making "Meatloaf" with and Irish twist- same meats but she ground all the meats. Added Lemon juice, and about everything you have only diced her bred crumbs at least 1/4 size. We heard a loud slamming from the kitchen and the family ran to the Kitchen - Grand Mom was slamming the 4 lb.'s of meat on t he counter top with a lot of force / many times. We asked why? - To remove any air space. That's what her mother did! She would also put 3 shots of Irish whisky. She also used barbecue sauce spread heavily. This brings back so many memories, I will have to try - it's been years 60+ years ago. Your knowledge and presentation caused me to subscribed......... Well done Sir!
Chef, I cannot describe to you the satisfaction I felt when I lifted the pans to reveal two perfectly bacon-wrapped loafs ready to be glazed and baked. One for me and one for my beautiful neighbor. I can understand why people lined up for this back in the day. Cheers to you, sir!
Ok, I've been searching for and watching countless food presentation shows, none of which equal the talents and wholesome quality Jean-Pierre provides his audience. No BS in his kitchen, every minute is worth your time... Thank you, Sir.
I made this tonight. It was very good. Just a few notes to myself. 425 degrees for 90 minutes was too long. When I checked it at 75 minutes it was already 178 degrees internal temp. Smoking this meatloaf would be a great addition. There was plenty of meat mixture left over for probably a second loaf. Just use two pounds of ground beef, a full pound of veal, a full pound of pork sausage. Then add a bit more carrots, onyons etc. Some swiss cheese lumped in the middle might be good too. If I could post a picture here, I would...mine came out looking exactly like Chef Pierre's.
This is the first time I've watched a video by chef Jean-Pierre, and I will tell you, when he put that salt and pepper on, so carefully measured, my first reaction was,... I like this guy! He's my kinda cook.👨🍳👌👍
I really like the way that DT supporters in Biden supporters can get together and vote for meatloaf with bacon all over it. At least there's something we can agree on
@@kimberleyjane2338 boy I'm not sure about that. There is an Asian themed restaurant in Chicago called Hot woks Cool sushi and it used to feature a Maki roll call the Obama mama. It was actually pretty good. They didn't do anything while Mr Orange was in office but I think they have something for Biden that was similar. It comes with little American flags
@@jmdenison Hahaha. I guess you are right in that way. I have never seen restos do that in Canada. I meant food itself is not political. It is cultural and should bring people together to share and love, regardless their views. ♥️🇨🇦
Never knew The Left Bank was your restaurant. Was there with my late wife a few times and remember it was fabulous. Love your channel and your videos because of their authenticity.
Made this Meatloaf and it's by far the best meatloaf my family and I have ever had! Labor intensive if you are prepping within hours however if you prep a day prior or morning this is a breeze to make. Prep, prep, prep! Oh by the way, I yielded two, so I was able to to put the other in the freezer and simply lay the bacon when I am ready to cook the mix. I love cooking again! Thank you Chef.
I'm from the UK and only came across this channel a week or so ago - this guy is priceless - I cannot stop watching. Just great at demystifying everything.........
I couldn't cook to save my life until I met my Grand Mother-in-law. Her Italian hands were those of an orchestra conductor in a kitchen with all its condiments. She made cooking fun. Just as you do Chef Jean-Pierre. Thank you.
I love how Chef JP always says “do what you like” but also gives excellent reasons why to do it his way. Not preachy, and not pretentious - just solid, honest advice. Love this channel!!
Just made your meatloaf for me and my roommate after work. Best meatloaf I've ever had, easily. Absolutely phenomenal, while I love meatloaf, this is something else entirely, utterly delicious, thank you so much for sharing.
Ya can't can't help but love this guy! He's like your crazy brother who loves to cook. "How do you lika dis/how do you lika doe's turkeys?" This is going to be my favorite channel.
I made this one with meat that was ground for me at my butchers. All pure fresh meat and no additives. Then add mashed potatoes, carrots and mashed turnip. A mushroom gravy. Crusty bread. It was to die for. Thanks, chef. It is an absolute winner.
I’ve only attempted 1 bacon wrapped meatloaf (out of many that I’ve made) and I cooked it too long. I didn’t glaze it, and the bacon was very “crispy” (my wife’s way of saying I burnt it), so I never tried it again. YOU give me the confidence to try again Chef. Thank you for all you do.
I don't think I've ever had meatloaf in my life! For sure never at home. My mother never made any sort of casseroles either. I was born in 1940, a year before the US entered the war, & we ate very simply-veggies from the garden, fruit from the trees in our 3-acre yard, eggs (& sometimes meat) from our chickens. Meat was chops & roasts from the butcher. We never ate out, & I first ate out when I went off to college. But I still never ate meatloaf; the very name put me off. The title of Chef Jean-Pierre's video turned me off, but my curiosity got the best of me. The look of it as he (triumphantly, lovingly, proudly) cut it turned me off; it looks like the "maouche" of my adoptive Ardèche in France, which I do not like, though the ingredients are completely different. BUT, I'm still game, I may adapt the recipe for one & finally try meatloaf in 2021, at age 81! Thanks to you, Chef Jean-Pierre! Meilleurs Voeux, santé, Bonne Année!
I hope this channel grows a lot, the positive energy of this gentlemen is just admirable and very inspiring. This is the type of guy that gets ppl into cooking.
Amazing isn't the word too deeeeeliciious and wonderful to miss you can't miss one it's outstanding and Soooo yummy thank you so much for an amazing wonderful some delicious and yummy and full of flavour recipe and video @ Chef Jean Pierre 👍👍👍👍🌹🌹❤️❤️
Just made it for the family. The recipe was able to make two. Absolutely amazing. I made au poivre sauce with capers as a sub for the pepper corn. New potatoes from the garden and fresh peas from the garden. My wife and all three kids ate so much we skipped dessert. Thank you!
@Chef Jean-Pierre I absolutely love the way you teach! I teach a technical skill every day to students. The way you regularly reinforce techniques is extremely important and helps the learner remember the lesson! The skill I teach is drastically different from cooking but the ability to teach is an art my friend and you have it! Not that you need someone to validate your skill but I wanted to recognize your talent. Not only your skill in the culinary arts but your talent for teaching. Not everyone can teach but you can sir! Best wishes to you!
I have always made my meatloaf like my mom, but I think I have found my new meatloaf. Love watching you. I have my grandmas crank meat grinder. Still gets the job done.
I had so much FUN making this meatloaf!!!!! I was surprised how delicious this smelled raw! In the oven while cooking…indescribable! Can’t wait to taste it in 30 min with green bean casserole and mashed potatoes and the gravy? Using the dripping from the pan! Thank you, Chef!
It is 2022. We sit at the feet of the master. What a happy time to be alive. Thank you for the love you have extended to the people who will eat, and to US who learn.
I love listening and watching this Chef. Besides having a great personality he doesn't try to act like cooking is something that everybody can't do. It's not rocket science... I love it! I also love that he takes an American classic and he isn't afraid to do it because of it's roots of being an easy American classic, and it seems like it's one of his favorites to make!!! God Bless Chef Jean-Pierre
“ I Hate when my doktor do this thing” This man is the most natural hilarious guy on UA-cam I’ve seen in ages XD And ffs he got some great recipies and technic. Im an instans fan!
I didn't think it was possible that someone else could be so excited about meat loaf - this looks like the masterpiece of all meatloaf! I can't wait to make it! Thank you Chef!!!
@@petirist9945 he said "3 or 4 eggs" so I used 4 and it came out nice. I'm not sure it would get messed up with 3 eggs, since it's (in my opinion) just acting as a binder and more protein/flavor. I think with most main ingredients you don't need to be too exact - it's more about blending the flavors and good quality ingredients as the chef says. Hope this helps, and happy cooking!
This guy is like a mad scientist of the kitchen! Very entertaining and so informative. I’m very fortunate to have found his videos. Definitely going to try his recipes. Thanks Chef!
Finally, someone confirms my suspicion regarding over mixing ground meat! I always found that weird, obviously if you don't mix it enough, the meat won't be seasoned properly. Thank you, Chef! You are one in a million!
Our guests just left and I gave them a sample of the meatloaf and I recorded them telling me how delicious it was. I mentioned that it was your recipe. I loved it!. Thank you so much. You are the best!.
..."and as you can see, everything is carefully measured" - I loved that :) Thank you Chef, and I got to confess I will certainly look at the humble meat loaf differently from now on...because this looks amaizing! :)
I'm not finished with your video yet, but wanted to comment and say thank you for letting your viewers know you can get a good budget grinder. Your not trying to sell a over priced machine just for a paycheck.
Oh. My. God. The BEST meatloaf I have ever made or eaten! My family and I snarfed this down like we hadn't eaten for a week. The next day leftover was amazing on brioche buns as a sandwich, too. 10 out of 10 recipe! Do yourself a favor and throw away all the other meatloaf recipes in your file and replace it with this. You'll thank me later.
I am a Chef for more than 30 years, but I love to watch your channel when I want to make some good western food. You are not only very talented and experienced chef , but also have a good sense of humor! I love it, my friend!
This recipe reminds me of the meatloaf my grandma used to make. And kudos to you, that you always speak out to the "youtube-police" and tell them what they are: ridiculous :D Always makes me smile. Wish you a happy new year!
Just discovered Chef Jean-Pierre with this amazing meatloaf - what a great persona!!! Making it tomorrow and I’ll have that voice in my head while doing so - pack it in!
I LOVE chef Jean-Pierre. "You can see everything are carefully measure!"...and then "Did i put the breadcrumb? Haa let me put some more." This men cook like its ment to be. No pretention but all skills.
Chef, I made this last night (ground my own meat too!) with mashed potatoes and your mushroom sauce and it was AMAZING! I just love your show and love you! Thanks for making cooking fun and delicious!
Yeah he's clearly a real chef and a cooking artist. There's way too many hacks on UA-cam doing all sorts of crazy things that no one was in a culinary skills or basic cooking skills would ever do in their entire life
Chef, ive been following your guides for a few months now and have to say. ITS BEEN THE BEST EATING OF MY LIFE! Thank you sir for your hard-work and passion in the kitchen! Inspires so many :)
Made two of these a couple weeks ago. I sliced and froze one and we devoured the other. Simply delicious. I made a mushroom sauce to accompany it which was great but this meatloaf shines on its own. Thanks chef. This is now in my repertoire. DaveL

425 degrees for 90 minutes is way to long....I baked it at 425 for 66 minutes....got 175 internal temp.
Exactly Chef. When I saw what they commercially make sausages from. I bought a meat grinder and stuffers and I make sausage for myself.
This is the first time I've watched a video by chef Jean-Pierre, and I will tell you, when he put that salt and pepper on, so carefully measured, my first reaction was,... I like this guy! He's my kinda cook.👨🍳👌👍
To enjoy feeding people with Masterpieces is a HEAVENLY GIFT you ROCK CHEF, Pierre
👍🏻
I really like the way that DT supporters in Biden supporters can get together and vote for meatloaf with bacon all over it. At least there's something we can agree on
@@jmdenison Because food has nothing to do with politics, unlike some guests we would like to share with. lol ♥️🇨🇦
@@kimberleyjane2338 boy I'm not sure about that. There is an Asian themed restaurant in Chicago called Hot woks Cool sushi and it used to feature a Maki roll call the Obama mama. It was actually pretty good. They didn't do anything while Mr Orange was in office but I think they have something for Biden that was similar. It comes with little American flags
@@jmdenison Hahaha. I guess you are right in that way. I have never seen restos do that in Canada. I meant food itself is not political. It is cultural and should bring people together to share and love, regardless their views. ♥️🇨🇦
“I hate when my doctor do this thing”
This man is hilarious, Jesus.
Yeah, the Chef's got an amazing sense of humour, as well as an amazing way to handle ingredients/food :)
@@Aelendris seriously it's like magic
😂😂
lmfao 🤣
"Sometimes i wonder about me, maybe i shouldve become a plumber, id probably be better at that"
Never knew The Left Bank was your restaurant. Was there with my late wife a few times and remember it was fabulous.
Love your channel and your videos because of their authenticity.
Made this Meatloaf and it's by far the best meatloaf my family and I have ever had! Labor intensive if you are prepping within hours however if you prep a day prior or morning this is a breeze to make. Prep, prep, prep! Oh by the way, I yielded two, so I was able to to put the other in the freezer and simply lay the bacon when I am ready to cook the mix. I love cooking again! Thank you Chef.
I absolutely love this guy! He makes mistakes, but doesn't sweat it
I love how outgoing and friendly Chef Jean-Pierre is. He loves life, he loves food, and he makes you love it too. You just can't help but enjoy.
Thank you 🙏 ❤️
Thanks
Thank you 🙏
Aside from obviously being a great chef and educator, I come here for the onyo! hope you have a great 2021. Onyo 4 eva!!
lol
"... like you would just brush things..." Absolutely delightful. The BEST cooking channel. My favorite. We love you Chef Jean. 🙂
He tips it out of the mould to bake it! Why did I not know this before? Amazing! My life just changed.
Cold Meatloaf Sandwiches! Yum!
I'm from the UK and only came across this channel a week or so ago - this guy is priceless - I cannot stop watching. Just great at demystifying everything.........
I couldn't cook to save my life until I met my Grand Mother-in-law. Her Italian hands were those of an orchestra conductor in a kitchen with all its condiments. She made cooking fun. Just as you do Chef Jean-Pierre. Thank you.
I love how Chef JP always says “do what you like” but also gives excellent reasons why to do it his way. Not preachy, and not pretentious - just solid, honest advice. Love this channel!!
Just made your meatloaf for me and my roommate after work. Best meatloaf I've ever had, easily. Absolutely phenomenal, while I love meatloaf, this is something else entirely, utterly delicious, thank you so much for sharing.
Ya can't can't help but love this guy! He's like your crazy brother who loves to cook. "How do you lika dis/how do you lika doe's turkeys?" This is going to be my favorite channel.
He's the high energy Bob Ross or Steve Irwin of cooking. You gotta love him!
“Do whatever you want... it’s your stomach!” Love it! My new line in the kitchen.. thanks!
What a great man. " I hate it when my doctor does that" Brilliant. First time I seen this guy. Must watch more of him.
you know it is going to be smackin when the chef sounds like a Disney chef character, broooo I am in your debt now!!!
Like chef Skinner from ratatouille 😂
I followed this recipe exactly including grinding my own meat and its the best meatloaf I've ever had in my life. This man knows what he's doing.
I made this one with meat that was ground for me at my butchers. All pure fresh meat and no additives. Then add mashed potatoes, carrots and mashed turnip. A mushroom gravy. Crusty bread. It was to die for. Thanks, chef. It is an absolute winner.
Thanks!
Thank you 🙏
I’ve only attempted 1 bacon wrapped meatloaf (out of many that I’ve made) and I cooked it too long. I didn’t glaze it, and the bacon was very “crispy” (my wife’s way of saying I burnt it), so I never tried it again. YOU give me the confidence to try again Chef. Thank you for all you do.
I don't think I've ever had meatloaf in my life! For sure never at home. My mother never made any sort of casseroles either. I was born in 1940, a year before the US entered the war, & we ate very simply-veggies from the garden, fruit from the trees in our 3-acre yard, eggs (& sometimes meat) from our chickens. Meat was chops & roasts from the butcher. We never ate out, & I first ate out when I went off to college. But I still never ate meatloaf; the very name put me off. The title of Chef Jean-Pierre's video turned me off, but my curiosity got the best of me. The look of it as he (triumphantly, lovingly, proudly) cut it turned me off; it looks like the "maouche" of my adoptive Ardèche in France, which I do not like, though the ingredients are completely different. BUT, I'm still game, I may adapt the recipe for one & finally try meatloaf in 2021, at age 81! Thanks to you, Chef Jean-Pierre! Meilleurs Voeux, santé, Bonne Année!
""" did i put it bread crumb yet , eh ill put little more there you go""" bruuuhahaha!!!!! I love this dude!!!
I hope this channel grows a lot, the positive energy of this gentlemen is just admirable and very inspiring. This is the type of guy that gets ppl into cooking.
Amazing isn't the word too deeeeeliciious and wonderful to miss you can't miss one it's outstanding and Soooo yummy thank you so much for an amazing wonderful some delicious and yummy and full of flavour recipe and video @ Chef Jean Pierre 👍👍👍👍🌹🌹❤️❤️
Just made it for the family. The recipe was able to make two. Absolutely amazing. I made au poivre sauce with capers as a sub for the pepper corn. New potatoes from the garden and fresh peas from the garden. My wife and all three kids ate so much we skipped dessert. Thank you!
So glad you like the Jeff thanks for sharing and thank you for watching the channel😊
I put capers in my povoire sauce too instead of green pepper corns. I love capers and they're tasty in just about everything
@Chef Jean-Pierre I absolutely love the way you teach! I teach a technical skill every day to students. The way you regularly reinforce techniques is extremely important and helps the learner remember the lesson! The skill I teach is drastically different from cooking but the ability to teach is an art my friend and you have it! Not that you need someone to validate your skill but I wanted to recognize your talent. Not only your skill in the culinary arts but your talent for teaching. Not everyone can teach but you can sir! Best wishes to you!
I don’t care what grandma made it will never top this meatloaf.
I've seen a million meat loaf videos...but this one was off the charts. .I see meatloaf in a different light now. Amazing.
What a legend. When you can make meatloaf sound this exciting you’ve mastered your craft.
I have always made my meatloaf like my mom, but I think I have found my new meatloaf. Love watching you. I have my grandmas crank meat grinder. Still gets the job done.
I had so much FUN making this meatloaf!!!!! I was surprised how delicious this smelled raw! In the oven while cooking…indescribable! Can’t wait to taste it in 30 min with green bean casserole and mashed potatoes and the gravy? Using the dripping from the pan! Thank you, Chef!
My husband just tried it! He was SHOCKED at how wonderfully tasteful it is! He also said it was indescribable! This is truly a gourmet meatloaf!
It is 2022. We sit at the feet of the master. What a happy time to be alive. Thank you for the love you have extended to the people who will eat, and to US who learn.
I love listening and watching this Chef. Besides having a great personality he doesn't try to act like cooking is something that everybody can't do. It's not rocket science... I love it!
I also love that he takes an American classic and he isn't afraid to do it because of it's roots of being an easy American classic, and it seems like it's one of his favorites to make!!!
God Bless Chef Jean-Pierre
Thank you Scott!!! 🧡
You make cooking fun...."the measurement is very precise"...lol I love this!
I am so stoned, and Chef JP has me cracking up so much. I love this guy's energy. Like, you can tell he really enjoys doing this.
You know what time it is. I get baked and watch him work too and he is so funny and has great stories.
“ I Hate when my doktor do this thing” This man is the most natural hilarious guy on UA-cam I’ve seen in ages XD
And ffs he got some great recipies and technic. Im an instans fan!
I didn't think it was possible that someone else could be so excited about meat loaf - this looks like the masterpiece of all meatloaf! I can't wait to make it!
Thank you Chef!!!
@@petirist9945 he said "3 or 4 eggs" so I used 4 and it came out nice. I'm not sure it would get messed up with 3 eggs, since it's (in my opinion) just acting as a binder and more protein/flavor. I think with most main ingredients you don't need to be too exact - it's more about blending the flavors and good quality ingredients as the chef says.
Hope this helps, and happy cooking!
This guy is like a mad scientist of the kitchen! Very entertaining and so informative. I’m very fortunate to have found his videos. Definitely going to try his recipes. Thanks Chef!
Made it twice Best I've ever had .
Thanks chef .
Finally, someone confirms my suspicion regarding over mixing ground meat! I always found that weird, obviously if you don't mix it enough, the meat won't be seasoned properly. Thank you, Chef! You are one in a million!
Not only wonderful food and cooking, but Jean-Pierre is the Cook-king!
Our guests just left and I gave them a sample of the meatloaf and I recorded them telling me how delicious it was. I mentioned that it was your recipe. I loved it!. Thank you so much. You are the best!.
I used to love leftover meatloaf cold as a sandwich. So delicious.
Had to get something to eat about halfway through this. Making me salivate over here!
..."and as you can see, everything is carefully measured" - I loved that :) Thank you Chef, and I got to confess I will certainly look at the humble meat loaf differently from now on...because this looks amaizing! :)
This guy is hilarious.. no pretense, all natural. You get what you get.
This gentlemen is absolutely marvelous. My kind of chef.
I'm not finished with your video yet, but wanted to comment and say thank you for letting your viewers know you can get a good budget grinder. Your not trying to sell a over priced machine just for a paycheck.
Got this baby in the oven as we speak! Also doing buttery garlic mashed potatoes!!! Thank you Chef!!!!
Was it good?
@@SOSick691 was 💯
@@TherealDjLouieG Thank you for replying. Im going to make this now
@@SOSick691 great! Hope it comes out as awesome as mine!
This guy makes cooking just seem like the absolute best thing to do :)
Oh. My. God. The BEST meatloaf I have ever made or eaten! My family and I snarfed this down like we hadn't eaten for a week. The next day leftover was amazing on brioche buns as a sandwich, too. 10 out of 10 recipe! Do yourself a favor and throw away all the other meatloaf recipes in your file and replace it with this. You'll thank me later.
You've convinced me..😋
What do you mean by “ leftovers “? That is a foreign concept in my family🤪
The man doesn't lie. This is a great meatloaf.
i so agree, i would not even call my previous meatloaves 'meatloaf ' after this. i only wish my mother was still alive to taste this.
I just made it. Can’t wait. It smells amazing.
I am a Chef for more than 30 years, but I love to watch your channel when I want to make some good western food. You are not only very talented and experienced chef , but also have a good sense of humor!
I love it, my friend!
This recipe reminds me of the meatloaf my grandma used to make. And kudos to you, that you always speak out to the "youtube-police" and tell them what they are: ridiculous :D Always makes me smile. Wish you a happy new year!
"You tube police" you make me laugh
Just discovered Chef Jean-Pierre with this amazing meatloaf - what a great persona!!! Making it tomorrow and I’ll have that voice in my head while doing so - pack it in!
You touched my heart dude, I hate meatloaf because people usually put raw onions into the mix. BUT I LOVE cooked onions.
I LOVE chef Jean-Pierre. "You can see everything are carefully measure!"...and then "Did i put the breadcrumb? Haa let me put some more." This men cook like its ment to be. No pretention but all skills.
Chef, I made this last night (ground my own meat too!) with mashed potatoes and your mushroom sauce and it was AMAZING! I just love your show and love you! Thanks for making cooking fun and delicious!
My cooking skills have been upgraded to a whole new level after watching Chef’s videos!
Yeah he's clearly a real chef and a cooking artist. There's way too many hacks on UA-cam doing all sorts of crazy things that no one was in a culinary skills or basic cooking skills would ever do in their entire life
Chef, ive been following your guides for a few months now and have to say. ITS BEEN THE BEST EATING OF MY LIFE! Thank you sir for your hard-work and passion in the kitchen! Inspires so many :)
I've always put bacon on the bottom of meatloaf, but not in this manner. Another great technique from a Master.
Made two of these a couple weeks ago. I sliced and froze one and we devoured the other. Simply delicious. I made a mushroom sauce to accompany it which was great but this meatloaf shines on its own. Thanks chef. This is now in my repertoire. DaveL
