I'd like to think that Aunt Myrna is just a character that Jack invented. These recipes are so bad, one can't help but think he just threw random stuff together and is trolling us. I guess we'll never really know.
I'm sorry but your knife skills are amazing. Single handedly just cutting up the onion like that and into pretty dang even cubes has me shocked and amazed.
So I cook recipes primarily from the 1940s, and I can probably shed some light on where this sort of thing comes from. Many recipes in the 1950 Betty Crocker cookbook involve making a white sauce out of butter, flour and milk. The recipes often call for miniscule quantities of spice, and rarely anything beyond salt and pepper, so I tend to add whatever smells good out of my moderately expansive spice rack (curry powder and rice go quite well with this sort of thing). Meats like chicken, tuna, crab, eggs (hard-boiled and mixed with the sauce on toast) or chipped beef are added, along with occasional vegetables like celery, peppers, etc. One recipe does include almonds and pimento. When everything has stewed in the sauce for around twenty minutes, the whole thing is placed in a 9×13 with breadcrumbs on top and baked for ~half an hour. The problem I see with Jack's interpretation of these types of recipes lies mostly in the fact that he relies on canned meat/vegetables/sauces like sour cream, and he doesn't get creative with adding complementary spices or other ingredients.
Uh how is this an honest try if you didn't mix the corn and green beans in a bowl first. But, because skipping steps is a cornerstone of jacks cooking, i'lll allow it. 🤣
Whole stick of butter for this small *** dish. ...I assume Aunt Myrna is dead, but it's truly a miracle that Jack is not. Edit: use half the butter, low sodium cream soup, replace the halved butter with maybe two-three tablespoons of olive oil, liberally season, add maybe half a pound ground turkey, and use ya know actual panko and not crackers and this could be okay.
A bit late on the comment, but the deep fried butter at the state faire you mentioned (at least, assuming it's the one in the midwest I am from and that there aren't multiple state fairs with the same food options. You didn't mention it being on a stick, so I'm not 100% certain) was alright. It tasted like salted butter and batter as you would expect and I had to share it with friends to avoid an instant heart attack. At least they didn't put a bunch of powdered sugar on it like the deep fried candy bars.
Are you in Iowa? Because I'm in Iowa and only Iowa, as far as I know, have deep fried butter as a fair food at Iowa State Fair lol. And from sightings of Hyvee groceries channel, I'm willing to bet you're in Iowa lol
Love ur channel man, so question, was aunt Myrna the one who made the fried rice without realizing youre supoosed to boil the rice first? Anyways that's my reccomendation Oh and also the intro surprised me and was fucking hilarious.
I could see this as one of those weird like 70's 80's takes on a casserole. I could also see this as a poor person's food. This is a lot like the stuff we ate when I was young and it was basically whatever we had to eat.
Was Aunt Myrna maybe in construction? I feel like her recipes would be like a passable poor man's plaster or maybe if it's used to reseal a driveway...?
If you really wanted to honor Masaokis (Cooking with Hoarders), you should have held the camera with your mouth while two-handing that pimento jar, all while speaking muffled and incoherently.
The ocarina of time music at the intro hit different also you should try to make ratatouille the way they make it in the movie (assuming it’s possible)
I get where she is going with this. I grew up with dishes like this. Green bean casserole is of this ilk. To improve the dish I would: mix the beans, corn, pimentos, and cream soup. Season to taste, probably seasoning salt or something. Spread into the pan. Cover with the crushed crackers, or fried onions. Bake it.
I would honestly say this sounds like a recipe that was developed by someone or something as a “classier” 1970/80s version green bean casserole. I’d bet Aunt Myrna got this from the back of a magazine and forgot to include salt and pepper or whatever in the various components. The whole composition, as well as the name just feels a bit too corporately developed to be independently developed by Aunt Myrna.
@@HonestTries It's actually a recipe called shoepeg corn and green bean casserole and can be found on the internet. The recipes I looked at didn't have any pimentos though.
@@kingconcerto5860 It reminds me of something that was thought of during the depression and then more things (like sour cream) got added along the way. You know "fancy it up".
Green beans from your garden are called string beans. When they are mature, there is a tough string you have to pull out as you snap the bean in half before you cook them. So that's where the name comes from.
He puts the phone in his mouth to open the pimentos and then still edits in a cut. Just put the phone down and use two hand and edit it all put. You don't have to show yourself opening a jar. I believe you did it
Another great video about a not-so-great recipe! If I didn't know better I'd think you've been making UA-cam videos for a long time. They're very well put together. You are brave to try them 🤢😕🤮. Could you tell me the brand of knife you use? It's impressive that it cuts and chops food easily even when you're only using one hand.
I love that your so dedicated to your fans that you won’t put that camera down for anything, if the one ☝🏾 hand don’t work you’ll squat and turn lol. Not to mention willing to die trying these recipes 😂… Good shit my dude 💪🏾🦾
Are you talking about pimento cheese dip or a frito pie? Actually i found one that is 16oz sour cream, ranch dip mix, 1c cheddar and 1/4c bacon bits. that one sounds the best, and says to serve with frito scoops.
August said this could almost be a recipe, and I can see it working with some changes and a lot of additions, get rid of the almonds, add seasoning of course, and I’d add meat or maybe potatoes to make it more substantial, and technically that would make it marginally healthier because you’re diluting the sodium in all of the processed shit.
I'm not sure if you've watched Chef Brian Tsao's reaction to different Cooking with Jack videos, but one of the common themes he has noticed is that Jack doesn't season at all
If you smack the ‘popper’ on the lid of pimentos with the blunt end of your knife handle, hard enough to break that seal, you could’ve opened it single handed.
It is definitely more annoying to watch now because I got a new phone and put the pop socket in a different spot so it's not central. I'll try and figure it out.
New subscriber, constructive criticism. This video could be 10 minutes long easily. Perhaps skipping the cutting of the onions and such. And for God's sake, you look like Kay with a knife. Please set the camera down while you do stuff... thank you, great idea for a channel. Your subscriptions will grow
Maybe this is just aunt Myrna's way of trying to stop Jack from returning to her house.
Aunt Myrna strikes again, her wrath bountiful, and indiscriminate. Woe upon ye, O haver of taste buds, who art to be destroyed.
Aye! Thus, t’was fairly writ.
Aunt Myrna really has a talent for getting whatever the hell she has in her pantry, throwing it together and calling it a recipe.
Maybe that's how salt and pepper popcorn was invented.

Do you make videos of peoples' reactions of these gross "recipes" on a different comedy account or something?

this is some really classic southern grandma stuff taken up to 11 lol
By the way always love your video game music choice, you should let us know what games you enjoy playing/maybe post game footage occasionally!
I second this, would love to watch some gaming content.
I third this I would love to see an ocarina of time playthrough immediately make this happen
I hate... HATE green bean casserole, which this effectively is but is somehow worse. So much worse.

Aunt Myrna's idea of cooking seems to involve mixing everything in her pantry with nary a care for man nor God.
Jack doesn't get close to cooking his chicken but he bakes a thing, that maybe just needs warming up, for a hour.
We can't expect God to expose all of Aunt Myrnas attrocities
You could send this stuff to Ethiopia, and they would label it as an act of terrorism.
The Gerudo Valley music while the pack of crackers is getting pulverized made me lose it for some reason lmfao
Loved the video!
Someone give this man a tripod please lol
You're a brave man. Hope you keep going and grow your channel.
the name "strings and pegs" is just ugh it does not make me think of food

I'm late, but I think you're thinking of Kay's Cooking, another bad cooking content creator here on UA-cam.
The somber background music really fits well with the kind of recipe it is.
Aunt Myrna must own stock in canned pimentos.
Before you took a bite I immediately said "it's a bland underseasoned green bean casserole"
Every time he declares mouth mode, I hear Fox yell "All Range Mode!"

Recipes from the great depression is what this sounds like
🤢
😂I got the fair reference! I’m a fellow Iowan myself
@@skylar4335 Welcome!
Aunt Myrna has to be an alcoholic right? She just throws these drunk as hell right?
I actually went and bought a can of that corn…pretty good.

Ngl I watch your videos to sleep your voice and music is a perfect match
this is made ten times as funny with the inclusion of Joshua Graham from Fallout New Vegas, which is an amazing game.
I've been replaying it lately because of all the Joshua Graham memes I've been seeing. Truly was the best Fallout of the newer generations.
@@HonestTries please use Ai voices for intros
@@HonestTries I fall asleep most nights to the Fallout soundtrack stream.
@@sarawilcox8122 love it. I love how NV used ambient tracks from past fallout games.
@@HonestTries yes!!!
Hearing you scoop the butter with the spoon made awful scratching noises. Listening to it was basically torture. Needed a mercy mute definitely.
If you really wanted to honor Masaokis (Cooking with Hoarders), you should have held the camera with your mouth while two-handing that pimento jar, all while speaking muffled and incoherently.
We have something similar here. Deep fried snickerrs is fucking amazing.
Snickers is best bar!
I don't think I'd eat a deep-fried stick of butter even if I was starving... The thought of biting into a stick of butter is nausea-inducing for me...
so glad i found this channel very early on and im happy at how much its grown super fun to watch but i couldnt tell you why that is haha
That Gerudo Valley transition when you got ready to crush Ritz crackers was WILD
"I pray for the safety of all good people who come to Zion, even Gentiles, but we can’t expect God to do all the work."
Please try something by Iron Wrath 444 like his garlic and eggs or his extreme tomato and garlic "spite" soup 😂
Added it to the list, thanks!
Holy shit, I just watched the garlic and eggs. That looks insane!
Yo can you try ' Whicken and Chaffels'? It would be great to get your reaction. Thanks you're doing gods work! 👍
For the love of god, stop using canned green beans. While fresh green beans are great, canned ones are the most vile sludge on the face of the earth
lol your face when trying it out is always amusing. Fo sho some salt and pepper would've helped.
It's green bean casserole without entirely few green beans and no seasoning.
The ocarina of time music at the intro hit different also you should try to make ratatouille the way they make it in the movie (assuming it’s possible)
Hahah just get a phone stand my guy, im sure you can find those in any gadget store?
Deep fried butter on a stick is the most American thing I've ever heard of
I get where she is going with this. I grew up with dishes like this. Green bean casserole is of this ilk. To improve the dish I would: mix the beans, corn, pimentos, and cream soup. Season to taste, probably seasoning salt or something. Spread into the pan. Cover with the crushed crackers, or fried onions. Bake it.

Aunt Myrnas don't seezun dey food
I did not expect to see Joshua Graham here xD
Do Lazy Mans Meatball Enchillada next.
This is a real recipe. It is Shoepeg Corn Casserole.
Aunt Myrna strung up and pegged TWU
I would honestly say this sounds like a recipe that was developed by someone or something as a “classier” 1970/80s version green bean casserole. I’d bet Aunt Myrna got this from the back of a magazine and forgot to include salt and pepper or whatever in the various components. The whole composition, as well as the name just feels a bit too corporately developed to be independently developed by Aunt Myrna.
That's a great point. It could possibly be a cousin of magazine aspic culture.
@@HonestTries It's actually a recipe called shoepeg corn and green bean casserole and can be found on the internet. The recipes I looked at didn't have any pimentos though.
@@porridge301 what is it with this woman and pimentos?
@@porridge301 Yes, because those recipes on the internet would have certainly been around before whatever recipe she stumbled across in the 1970's.

Worst 7-layer [green]bean dip!
