    7, 8 and 9 seem like three different skillsets that each elevate food but aren't really distinct levels of meat prep. Making complicated food with many moving parts, making lots of food and considering presentation and entertainment, and really understanding what is happening when you cook. The best thing I've ever cooked was a technique from 6 inspired by the skill at 9, and I served it at an event where the meat was made with the technique at 5 and the host clearly had the skill of 8.

      at least 6 I think is the minimum he is requiring to qualify for this step. 6 would be a pretty small thanksgiving gathering for most people I would think, but certainly not at all abnormal if you're living away from home or something for instance. If you realize that on average a western family has 1.5 kids then we could mathematically imagine that a given 2 adult household would have 4 parents, 1 sibling, and 1.5 kids. If the sibling is also married with family thats an adiitional 2 parents, 1 significant other and 1.5 more kids. Potential grand total average family 6 grandparents, 4 adults, 3 children. I don't really know why im doing this exercise at this point.

Now I prepare feast style dinners 2-3 times a month for my immediate family! The menu planning and organizing what needs to be cooked when is half of the fun. ☺️ There is just something special in a meal that took days of planning and preparation. Thanksgiving turkey “Alton Brown - Good Eats” style is probably my favorite meal of the year.

      Yeah, my college parties involved me cooking a feast for my friends. Basically I would make a shopping list and have people bring me ingredients or money so I didn't go broke hosting. Then I'd "slave" at the stove (in quotes because I loved it) and serve it up with some type of alcoholic punch in bulk so we could have mixed drinks the whole night with no one having to do work lol. That freed us up to play board games and videos games into the night (or study when we wanted to have a party but finals were getting a little close).
      I would also teach friends to cook that never had to before. Again, they'd bring me what I told them to and I'd show them how to put it together (trying to refrain from being a control freak as much as possible during the moments where I let them take over lol)
      I miss those nights :/ I still do this with my bf, but it's just not the same as being "under pressure" knowing that you have a dozen guests to serve. It is nice that my bf (mostly) knows how to cook though lol

    Chicken liver is one of most delicious kinds of meat: fried with onions, ground pepper and optionally baked apples it's pure delight.

    I was only made aware of this channel 1-2 weeks ago and have devoured your content. This is seriously one of the absolute best cooking channels I've come across, and as a carnivore, I really appreciated this episode. You'll hit that 1m subscriber mark sooner than later with your content.
    Edit: Oh, and I'd also say that I'm a solid level 5 ("grilling out" - as we say here in Wisconsin - is indeed very different from a BBQ), but I've successfully dabbled in level 7. I've never smoked meats (level 6), but that's more of an equipment/space issue rather than one of desire/perceived skill.

  • @AndrewJHayford

    I am working on level 5! Smoked my first pork shoulder and chicken using a weber kettle grill recently and they turned out pretty great. Learned a lot about how to maintain temperature in a simple grill like that and building fires. A bluetooth thermometer setup helps a lot!

    I like to think I’m at a 9, having gone through culinary school and having a passion for food my whole life. Made Wellington and cassoulet a few year ago but I’ve now been finding a lot of joy in the simpler less labour intensive methods. Braising is a new favourite and I’ve found the key to making a good stewed dish is making some killer sticks to add instead of plain old water. Maybe you could do a video on stocks since it uses mostly excess products and will take anyone’s home cooking to the next level. Much love can’t wait for the next video in a month 😉

    I'm fairly certain that I can manage not killing my guests, I'd say a solid 70% survive eating my food so that's nice. Also, I make a mean, and I mean MEAN hot water, definitely worth a try!
    On a somewhat serious note, though, thanks Shaq, your vids really spark my love for cooking everytime I watch them and always provide ideas and new things to try out. You really outdo yourself with every video you post, and this one is no exception. Very informative, with lots of great suggestions and techniques to inherit. Good job, as always, looking forward to the next bad boy the notifications tell me about!
