So what I think is the perfect part of subscribing to this channel...whatever you wake up in the morning thinking you want for dinner, lunch or breakfast, the recipe and instructions are here. It has taught me to go beyond the boring and focus on becoming a better cook, without fearing mistakes. I could go on, but this channel changed my life.
I am sitting at a Chinese place watching my favorite UA-cam channel, perfectly fitting! Every day I make something new, my husband asks if I got it from Sam. You're my new toy to play with!
Typically I am not a “commenter;” however, I looked over at my 6 year old daughter while watching this episode (who is running around gathering items like a crazy person) who told me she was getting her Sam ingredients ready so she could “cook along with Sam.” I just had to snap a picture. Over the past two years she has cooked a few Sam recipes on her own.
Heck yeah teach them young how to cook that way they'll be prepared plus doesn't hurt to just sit back and watch them lol. My two were taught young how to bake and cook, it's a fun experience lol.
Just made these with chicken and shrimp & they were really fantastic ! The ginger is a great touch that elevates it to the next level . This is definitely a new staple of mine . You rock Sam !
My friends Aultra and Mike got me hooked on watching Sam’s videos. Sam has inspired me to start cooking for my dad and my brother after our mom recently passed away from a heart condition. Thank you Chance, Max, and Sam!
I want to get an EVO (actually want 2, one inside, and one outside). I think it should become a standard kitchen appliance. I think it would revolutionize at-home cooking, and possibly bring people together more often.
Get Tamari instead of regular soy sauce, it's made without wheat. And Hoisin sauce is available gluten-free. You may have to get it on Amazon, though. I know Lee Kum Kee and Kikkoman both sell GF versions
Beware: many carbon steel pans, when the induction top rapidly heats, tend to warp. For short cooking times these pans will typically return to normal. If you're going to use carbon steel on induction, start with the lowest power level, let the pan heat, and then slowly turn up the heat. Matfer and de Buyer both exhibit these issues, but Made In and Misen have also displayed this warping.
My daughter was born 9 months ago today and I would watch STCG with her every morning from day 1. To this day, if she's upset, all we have to do is put on Uncle Sam and the boys and she'll immediately calm down and just watch! Thanks for the free babysitting and amazing meals I can cook my family!!
STCG drinking game: Take a shot when: Sam burns himself 🥃 Astro barks 🥃 The gardeners do their thing 🥃 Sam says "Andddd we mix" 🥃 Double shot: Sam adds green onion 🥃🥃 We'll be hammered after the first 5 minutes. This so deserves a sweet ass garlic press. 👌🏻
I hope I can win/earn a garlic press. You’ve made this crappy pandemic less crappy. I’ve cooked more than I ever have and also started cursing more while doing so. I don’t think it’s a coincidence.
Looks tasty, and super easy, AND best of ALL, uses Max’s favorite chicken thighs! I pretty much use chicken thighs exclusively, much to my wife’s chagrin. Thanks guys! Love to y’all from Memphis!
Sam, just made these...outstanding flavors! The butter / bib lettuce is too wimpy, need the crisp and crunch of ice berg. I made one for my wife, and she stayed home with me in her little black dress, rather than going out without me. LOL!
For the pf Chang’s ones..the secret is the dehydrated black mushrooms (reconstituted) and the mushroom soy sauce, the kind that looks like used motor oil. Water chestnuts, shallot, scallion, sesame seed oil. Please believe me..I’ve been at it for a while. Now I make them better than them Mmm now I want some
I saw many videos for this recipe and when I saw this channel, and said "I love this guy, he's hysterical!" Then the "Chris Christianson" comment validated the point. Keep doing what you do!
We have made this a couple times subbing shrimp for chicken (daughter won’t eat meat) and carrot for red pepper (wife won’t eat peppers.Crikey!) and it’s real good. Garnish with cilantro sprigs for a little extra freshness. Love your show and have enjoyed several of your recipes!
Maybe hook Chris Christiansen up with a garlic press?! Every time he goes to press garlic he’ll be reminded that you’re with Mrs. Cooking Guy and not him!
Made these tonight with my 4 year old daughter who loves your videos. My wife has made something similar before with ground chicken and she said these were way better. Thanks for all the videos and ideas.
Delicious just made this after watching you and be damned if I didnt eat 6 of them before my wife starting yelling at me for eating her share !!! Lol gonna have to make more thanks for the idea and I look forward to seeing more Cheers!!
Max and Chance (and Sam), you guys have changed the game. Not only do my 6 and 8 y.o. kids love watching the show with me, they are now my big kitchen helpers! Making America Cook Again! Love you guys! (Sam too).
Been a fan for years now- loved this recipe. It is hot as hell out, the smoke from the fires means closed windows, and my tiny apt is sweltering. I’m a grumpy old lady- But you made it all a bit better with this cool easy gift from the culinary gods. I’m a middle aged anarchist who loves trying anything new, but will welcome some cool weather to enjoy your tomato soup, and the epic short ribs . Stay well and safe wherever you are folks.
Hey Sam another great episode! You said this would be more of an appetizer but for bariatric surgery patients this would be a kick ass main meal and keto fans would probably love it too! Keep the recipes coming!
Absolutely love your videos your tone the way you mix in jokes with cooking because it can be overwhelming for some (me) so I appreciate the break. And I didn’t know what is was but the fact that you said you have been married 36 years further let’s me know I found the right cooking channel. Someone whose talented yet humble and I know being a husband is humbling the same way it is for being a wife. Thanks again SAM and Mrs Sam! Let’s keep on cooking 🧑🍳
One of the biggest reason I love to watch you cook Sam is that you make such a diverse variety of foods and of course do it in such an entertaining way!!! Thank you for the joy you bring my husband and I.
My husband made the cornbread on the Traeger and we topped with hot honey- SO GOOD! My husband found you shortly after we had our now 3 year old and you are the reason he actually cooks now! Thank you!
That looks amazing and simple!! You know what else is simple? Growing scallions!! Please please please do it. The ones you get from the store, just leave about an inch above the roots (use the rest of course!), prop them up in a small cup with water - a shot glass works perfectly. In a few days, plant in some potting soil. That's it! Whenever you want scallions, snip them off about an inch above the soil and they will regrow. Always available green onions. :)
Made your recipe a couple of weeks ago for my wife. As she was watching me cook, she complained "Oh! That's too much work" She really learned one dinner to cook from her mother. I don't hold that against her because she cooks it really well. After cooking the same meal for company for 33 years she has it down pat.... She complained up until the time she took the first bite. She finished her plate and asked if there was more. Needless to say she hopes I make lettuce wraps again..... Thanks Sam. But tomorrow I'm grilling some dead chicken. And then I'm grilling Venison Steaks and Tenderloin a couple of days later....
Ngl Sam, your recipes are so amazingly customisable to what is accessible to each. You've actually made me try cooking more often than ever with everyone loving them and I can't thank you enough. Winning your garlic press would be an amazing addition to the family.
This looks so good. I have everything but the butter lettuce. Just put it on my list to buy. Thanks Sam for showing us that cooking really is easy to do.
Just made this recipe Sam. It is a real winner. My wife of 47 yrs. said it is now one of her favorites , and I will have to make it at least twice a month like you. Hope to win a garlic press. Fingers crossed.
SAM!! I literally just told my husband last night that I wish you would make some lighter, healthier meals like lettuce wraps and we almost fell out of our chairs when we tuned in tonight and you were making them!! Listen to your wife more : )
I fully agree with Carolyn on having healthier recipes. You even said it yourself, that we don’t always need the heavy meals. Keep listening to your wife! Thanks for the entertainment.
Sam as a dad of two boys, I love your interaction with them and the frequent dad frustration of your sons acting like doofuses! Max and Chance your great!
My cooking skills have definitely gone up since I started watching Sam a couple of years ago. And my Dr told me this week that my cholesterol has also gone up! I’ll be making this recipe for sure here soon.
I legitimately made these last night before this video... I'll have to try your version! I highly encourage everyone to make it! It's really easy to do. The only hard part is getting some of those ingredients because you may not already have them. But once you do, you can make it super easy the next time! Can't find butter lettuce or don't want to spend the money? Just use romaine or bibb which you can always find! I also add rice sticks to mine.
Chopped the garlic, avoiding the garlic press. (slight murmur) Introduced the induction burner, obviating the need for the EVO. (moderate rumble) Could you use ground chicken? Yes, but it could be beaks and snouts. BOOM! Making Cooking Great (Fun) Again, for sure.
Looks good add a few diced waterchesnuts to the chx mixture.. I do enjoy lettuce cups of some sort, I'm an out of control diabetic that 100% needs to get rid of 95% of my carbs.. Love how sweet Sam was on the phone..
I watched this video a second time and got some ideas that I do, that might be helpful for dealing with lettuce. If you cut across the end of the stem, you waste a lot of good lettuce, and if you break the leaves off, you will have those rough break-points that are time-consuming to cut off. Instead, hold the head of lettuce with the stem pointing upward and then get a small knife at a 45-degree angle and keep cutting around the stem, in a funnel-like shape. It wastes as little as possible and you save time by not having to cut off every individual leaf's break-off point. When you get down to the leaves that are either too small or curly for Lettuce Wraps, just coarsely cut up the rest of the lettuce into bite size pieces to add to your favorite garden salad. Finally, cut the stem into discs and then pieces and add them to a vegetable stock with other veg scraps. (If you want to make American "Chinese" food like Moo Goo Gai Pan, stir-fry it and then add a little stock with some cornstarch stirred up in it and you can thicken it just like the restaurants, but it's better because YOU made it!) Nothing is wasted, BUT you got: -Lettuce Wraps -garden salad -any thickened dish or soup that you like -and probably a lot of stock left over for other things I hope any detail here might be helpful to someone. Take care, everyone!
What got me hooked on STCG? 10 months ago, the 'One Pan Egg Sandwich.' -- I made a simple one like yours 20 minutes before midnight, and I WOKE MY KIDS UP (8 &10) just to try a bite!!! (They loved it) Amazing, Sam. Great food. Like you say, 'Make it your own, and 'Don't eat shit.'
I just made this as a main course meal paired with seasoned brown rice, and the family loved it! Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe. I see why The Mrs. requests it so often.
Currently 8 months pregnant with gestational diabetes. I'll accept anything that's gonna make me feel better, including a garlic press! Love the videos and hopefully my blood sugars can manage the lettuce wraps! :)
He cooks AND can actually give good relationship advice?? This man surprises me everyday...

We should meet , shorty
but ur lying tho
this is perfect for my dainty friends and family. also when I’m looking for good protein and light calories. gotta try this.
Max! Let Sam do his “let it do it’s thing” thing! We love all of the things that make your Dad who he is! #FreeSam !
Just made these with chicken and shrimp & they were really fantastic ! The ginger is a great touch that elevates it to the next level . This is definitely a new staple of mine . You rock Sam !
These always look cool and yummy to boot! 😜😍 I have to admit I was glad I tackled Asian food before Covid.
My friends Aultra and Mike got me hooked on watching Sam’s videos. Sam has inspired me to start cooking for my dad and my brother after our mom recently passed away from a heart condition. Thank you Chance, Max, and Sam!
Uses an induction burner to cook with a pan, while using his evo as a counter… I strive to achieve this level of cooking one day!
I want to get an EVO (actually want 2, one inside, and one outside). I think it should become a standard kitchen appliance. I think it would revolutionize at-home cooking, and possibly bring people together more often.
I can definitely use this recipe for the next few weeks...I need to get back in the gym and this recipe looks like a winner.
Exactly what I was thinking
Good idea. I’m starting a routine on Monday. Thanks Ray!
Love your channel!
Damn Ray Mack is here! Nice! I sing your theme all the time.
Make sure u get those carbs in though
The fact Sam has been married for 30+ years and still knows the name of his wife’s ex-boyfriend confirms everything I think I know about him 😂
Lmfaooooooooooo facts
Sorry guys but I think Chris Christianson was a made up name…like Kelly for his wife lol
@@uneartheros yeah he wouldn't out the guys full name in a video, why he hides his wifes first name though im not sure.
Kelly is his wife’s name.
@@uneartheros Kelly is really his wife’s name
I have a gluten allergy and its great to see you cook something that I can eat the entire thing (just need GF soy sauce)! Thanks Sam
Hoisin has gluten most times as well fyi
Get Tamari instead of regular soy sauce, it's made without wheat. And Hoisin sauce is available gluten-free. You may have to get it on Amazon, though. I know Lee Kum Kee and Kikkoman both sell GF versions
La Choy soy sauce is gluten free
Wow. We’ve been cooking Sam’s recipes at least twice a week. THIS one is now top of our rotation…. SO good! Thanks guys for always being YOU!

Just texted the wife to see if she has plans for dinner... got a no. Stopping by the grocery store on the way home so I can cook this tonight.
Simpin' ain't easy....
STCG drinking game:
Take a shot when:
Sam burns himself 🥃
Astro barks 🥃
The gardeners do their thing 🥃
Sam says "Andddd we mix" 🥃
Double shot:
Sam adds green onion 🥃🥃
We'll be hammered after the first 5 minutes. This so deserves a sweet ass garlic press. 👌🏻
7:48 seamless switch to voice over
Not so much seamless
The humor in this video is insane!! Thanks for the great easy recipe and the laughs.
I hope I can win/earn a garlic press. You’ve made this crappy pandemic less crappy. I’ve cooked more than I ever have and also started cursing more while doing so. I don’t think it’s a coincidence.
IF YOU AINT CURSING, YA AINT COOKIN
I curse while cooking all the time, problem is, the dogs have learned that curse words often mean I've dropped food.
For ginger. You can use the side of a pairing knife or use a peeler. I mostly scrape of the skin with a pairing knife.
Cooking Chinese whilst wearing a Japanese T-shirt 😂
😂😂😂
Sam. These are my absolute favorite thing on the PF Chang’s menu. You are my hero.
Looks tasty, and super easy, AND best of ALL, uses Max’s favorite chicken thighs! I pretty much use chicken thighs exclusively, much to my wife’s chagrin. Thanks guys! Love to y’all from Memphis!
I love P.F. Chang’s lettuce wraps. I love lettuce but I add some white rice to mine. Makes it so much better.
Gimme dat pressssssss.
Also, my wife made these a few weeks ago when she found a recipe online. They're fantastic.
I like this guy a lot, no BS no phoniness, just dry humor and great recipes
“You can do what you want when you’re not baking!”
As Claire saffitz is having a panic attack somewhere
Sam, just made these...outstanding flavors! The butter / bib lettuce is too wimpy, need the crisp and crunch of ice berg. I made one for my wife, and she stayed home with me in her little black dress, rather than going out without me. LOL!
SAM: “Max, which do you prefer? Breasts or thighs?
MAX: “Breasts, obviously”
SAM: “You’re getting thighs”
😄
"Chicken" must be added atleast once in your comment
Knowing the fat ratio in breast and thighs and how fat = flavour, Max probably lied to trick his father
You inspired my mom to finally cook us dinner last night! It was super tasty! Thanks, Sam the cooking guy
For the pf Chang’s ones..the secret is the dehydrated black mushrooms (reconstituted) and the mushroom soy sauce, the kind that looks like used motor oil.
Water chestnuts, shallot, scallion, sesame seed oil.
Please believe me..I’ve been at it for a while. Now I make them better than them
Mmm now I want some
Thank you! I was searchig for someone who would say they missed the water chestnuts and mushrooms!!
I saw many videos for this recipe and when I saw this channel, and said "I love this guy, he's hysterical!" Then the "Chris Christianson" comment validated the point.
Keep doing what you do!
Looks good! So we aren’t going to talk about the need for the voice over? Huh? What happened to the audio? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
We have made this a couple times subbing shrimp for chicken (daughter won’t eat meat) and carrot for red pepper (wife won’t eat peppers.Crikey!) and it’s real good. Garnish with cilantro sprigs for a little extra freshness. Love your show and have enjoyed several of your recipes!

My pickiest 8 year old absolutely loves it - she keeps asking it again and again! Absolutely delicious! Thank you !
Notice how Sam chopped the garlic himself so we didn't notice there wasn't a garlic press give away at the end of the video. Sneaky.
Max and Chance (and Sam), you guys have changed the game. Not only do my 6 and 8 y.o. kids love watching the show with me, they are now my big kitchen helpers! Making America Cook Again! Love you guys! (Sam too).
Kelly’s ex-boyfriend probably thinks there’s a chance now. Lol
Ahem, "chance" - Sam's got bigger issues to deal with.
Been a fan for years now- loved this recipe. It is hot as hell out, the smoke from the fires means closed windows, and my tiny apt is sweltering. I’m a grumpy old lady- But you made it all a bit better with this cool easy gift from the culinary gods.

Yes

This one seems a bit healthier than the normal videos, i'm here for it. For sure gonna try this one out.
I made this for supper tonight it was a hit! I never seen my son eat so fast!! This was amazing thanks again!!
Made this for dinner tonight. OMG. Tasty as. Cheers Sam. This will now be a staple in our household.
One of the biggest reason I love to watch you cook Sam is that you make such a diverse variety of foods and of course do it in such an entertaining way!!! Thank you for the joy you bring my husband and I.
Long time viewer 1st time commentary. Made these last night, my family was so pleased. Love the channel.
My husband made the cornbread on the Traeger and we topped with hot honey- SO GOOD! My husband found you shortly after we had our now 3 year old and you are the reason he actually cooks now! Thank you!
I have been doing this same thing with beef for 20 years, sooooo good, thanks Sam!!!!
That looks amazing and simple!!
You know what else is simple? Growing scallions!! Please please please do it. The ones you get from the store, just leave about an inch above the roots (use the rest of course!), prop them up in a small cup with water - a shot glass works perfectly. In a few days, plant in some potting soil. That's it! Whenever you want scallions, snip them off about an inch above the soil and they will regrow. Always available green onions. :)
These were great. I changed it up with everything bagel seasoned cashews and pistachios on top. Great job again Sam, Max and Chance. I appreciate you.
36 years. Very nice Sam. I kill in the kitchen, but you are a great inspiration.
We love PF Chang's and Mainland China lettus wrap. So glad to find this recipe. Thanks chef, super home made recipe
Made your recipe a couple of weeks ago for my wife. As she was watching me cook, she complained "Oh! That's too much work" She really learned one dinner to cook from her mother.

And then I'm grilling Venison Steaks and Tenderloin a couple of days later....
Brilliant, I love these. So simple, so delicious. I use the same ingredients for Asian sauce quite often. Skrotorr approves.
I've been cooking for 50 years and I still get ideas from him he's the man with the ideas I'm old school but using his ideas really plays well
Oh the banter! Its what makes me cook! Love the recipes and look out for them each Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday here in Oz!
Love the way you measure things by eye! That is the way to go!
So tasty Sam as it shall get me through the heat of another Phoenix summer. Thanks
Ngl Sam, your recipes are so amazingly customisable to what is accessible to each. You've actually made me try cooking more often than ever with everyone loving them and I can't thank you enough. Winning your garlic press would be an amazing addition to the family.
This looks so good. I have everything but the butter lettuce. Just put it on my list to buy. Thanks Sam for showing us that cooking really is easy to do.
I can’t get butter lettuce in my area even drove 40 miles to a Whole Foods no luck so I just use romaine.
Great recipe, just had it for lunch and its very delicious! I added some honey to make it a little bit thicker
I just made these the other day! I used my processor on the chicken though. And added in some minced water chestnuts for crunch.
Just made this recipe Sam. It is a real winner. My wife of 47 yrs. said it is now one of her favorites , and I will have to make it at least twice a month like you. Hope to win a garlic press. Fingers crossed.
SAM!! I literally just told my husband last night that I wish you would make some lighter, healthier meals like lettuce wraps and we almost fell out of our chairs when we tuned in tonight and you were making them!! Listen to your wife more : )
I fully agree with Carolyn on having healthier recipes.
You even said it yourself, that we don’t always need the heavy meals.
Keep listening to your wife!
Thanks for the entertainment.
Sam as a dad of two boys, I love your interaction with them and the frequent dad frustration of your sons acting like doofuses! Max and Chance your great!
My cooking skills have definitely gone up since I started watching Sam a couple of years ago. And my Dr told me this week that my cholesterol has also gone up!
I’ll be making this recipe for sure here soon.
Dear sam I watch u every day make lots of ur recipes when I cook and I have been wanting a classic Italian beef recipe would b dope
I legitimately made these last night before this video... I'll have to try your version!
I highly encourage everyone to make it! It's really easy to do. The only hard part is getting some of those ingredients because you may not already have them. But once you do, you can make it super easy the next time! Can't find butter lettuce or don't want to spend the money? Just use romaine or bibb which you can always find! I also add rice sticks to mine.
Oh man, I haven't been to a PF CHnag's in forever! You make these look so easy!
Did it with ricenoodles instead of lettuce - awesomeness. Thanks Sam!
Chopped the garlic, avoiding the garlic press. (slight murmur) Introduced the induction burner, obviating the need for the EVO. (moderate rumble) Could you use ground chicken? Yes, but it could be beaks and snouts. BOOM! Making Cooking Great (Fun) Again, for sure.
My husband and I love your show and he frequently cooks your recipes but wishes he had one of your AMAZING garlic press to use when making them 👍
YES......... I LOVE THESE....U ARE THE MAN SAM. And your sons are AWESOME at what they do
Looks good add a few diced waterchesnuts to the chx mixture.. I do enjoy lettuce cups of some sort, I'm an out of control diabetic that 100% needs to get rid of 95% of my carbs.. Love how sweet Sam was on the phone..

When you get down to the leaves that are either too small or curly for Lettuce Wraps, just coarsely cut up the rest of the lettuce into bite size pieces to add to your favorite garden salad.

(If you want to make American "Chinese" food like Moo Goo Gai Pan, stir-fry it and then add a little stock with some cornstarch stirred up in it and you can thicken it just like the restaurants, but it's better because YOU made it!)
Nothing is wasted, BUT you got:
-Lettuce Wraps
-garden salad
-any thickened dish or soup that you like
-and probably a lot of stock left over for other things
I hope any detail here might be helpful to someone. Take care, everyone!
What got me hooked on STCG? 10 months ago, the 'One Pan Egg Sandwich.' -- I made a simple one like yours 20 minutes before midnight, and I WOKE MY KIDS UP (8 &10) just to try a bite!!! (They loved it) Amazing, Sam. Great food. Like you say, 'Make it your own, and 'Don't eat shit.'
My wife is going to love this one. Thanks for the idea.
I tried this recipe on my channel a few weeks ago. It was amazing, there's so many ways to make this. I love their Lettuce wrap.
Adding chopped chestnuts will be awesome!
I just made this as a main course meal paired with seasoned brown rice, and the family loved it! Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe. I see why The Mrs. requests it so often.
So many things that can be keto tweaked. Love it!
What?! No garlic press giveaway?!? These look amazing. Also can’t believe “the boys@ don’t know “round the outside.” Love what you all do!!
YES LETS GO SAM, MORE HEALTHY OPTIONS!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for this! Keep the low-carb meals coming!
Love my copper chef induction pad plus pan! It works really great! And comes in handy!
Something so satisfying about the sound of the chopping
Your vids really do make my day Sam ! And couldn’t do it without the master editor. Love y’all
You are by far the most characteristic you tube chief EVER. Going to cook this tonight. Does your knife full quicker cutting on a metal surface ?
Usually, I'm not a fan of the lettuce-wrapped dishes but I think this is worth giving a try.
One of our favorite dishes to make. And as a meal. Smiling. Along with baked veggie rolls. Woohoo!
Sam, thanks so much for this recipe! I love how easy it is. Thanks to you, I don't eat the same stuff over and over again.
Currently 8 months pregnant with gestational diabetes. I'll accept anything that's gonna make me feel better, including a garlic press! Love the videos and hopefully my blood sugars can manage the lettuce wraps! :)
This looks so refreshing! Simple, yet full of a lot of flavor. Can't wait to give this a try.
That's how us low carbers make sandwiches all the time. More low carb recipes please! :)
