      Probably because we like knowing the things we grew up around can be loved by people who may not have even known about it until just then. Seeing the love and appreciation for something so close to us is a big deal. So again, it’s because our pride on our cooking and recipes can be enjoyed even outside of our own culture and we love seeing that look on their face as they take a big bite.
      We love making people smile with our mix of cultures over the years.
      We tend to be people pleasers even if just a bit. So that enjoyment makes us feel good. That and we tend to turn onto these vids to try and get that ‘first bite” feeling back a little by watching their first try.
      Probably both.

      Food tends to unite so many different types of people, and America, due to our history as a melting pot of cultures and people, have many various dishes. Even a few greasy spoons/diners, off the beaten path. People from other countries, visiting the states for some delicious American cuisine, reinforces the nature of the country being made up of different cultures. Anyone can make it here, and anyone with a hankering, can come across the pond for a bite.

Having been brought up with proper British (European) table manners*, I simply couldn't get my head around a restaurant not having any cutlery. It's a long time ago now, but I'm fairly sure I asked where they kept the knives and forks (I would have been about 12 at the time).
      * The first time I visited the US, I was similarly fascinated how Americans said grace before a meal (something that had all but died out by that stage in the U.K., and is virtually never heard today). So, in some ways, American table manners are stricter than ours.

      I grew up in the Midwest but moved to the UK in 1994. Although good British food is amazing, there is a pride and generosity of hand in American cooking that is too often lacking here. One friend told me she'd lived in the US for a few years and never once had a bad meal because even the lowliest greasy spoon takes pride in what they do (leaving out fast food chains of course) whereas too often places in the UK seem content to serve a mediocre meal and settle for a "That'll do" attitude. American barbecue is making some inroads here but I've never seen it done exactly right in a British establishment.

    If Josh and Ollie bring Max and Armand to Texas, my husband and I will personally host a back yard bbq. Complete with brisket, sausage, & home made jalapeño poppers.

    Regarding chili, one of our wedding gifts was the recipe for a family friend’s award winning chili. We make this regularly during the fall and winter.

    @Jolly I just want to say thank you for always approaching the US with an open mind and, if anything, a positive bias rather than the usual snide remarks and pilloried stones so common online from Across the Pond. Cheers mates!

    Man, Arnaud is so French it's insane. That hand flick after trying the nacho, like the flavor slapped him and he's slapping back. So French it's unbelievable. I know his parents are French living in the UK, I believe? Crazy the nuances they communicated to him. He's a true hybrid. ( My kids too, French and American. That's why it amazes me.)

    it really makes me smile, like ear to ear, to see you guys introducing american staples to your fellow brits, and watching the wonder wash over their faces as they think to themselves "Where has this been all of my life????"

    I believe I remember someone saying early on that Max was born in the US and moved to the UK as a little kid so his love of American food makes sense.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you for enjoying Kansas City BBQ! We’ve got the best! Plus, there is a great variety of award winning BBQ around the metro area. I don’t know that many consider KCMO “the south,” but I’m so glad KC-style was your experience!

    I love hearing the Brit’s say “God bless America”. If they really like American food they can make it themselves, smoked meats are kind of an art form but if you try and document what you do you can come up with great stuff.
