      That's a really good idea. A lot of UA-cam cooking sensations release a cookbook, however, many of them are focused on main dishes and desserts. Sometimes I find a really good side dish is hard to come up with. A lot of Gugas' side dishes would be great for a party.

    Pulling vacuum on Sprite seems weird...
    It will release more CO2, so the pressure will normalize. But if you remove CO2 from Sprite breforehand (make it basically flat) to preserve pressure -- the acidity of Sprite would be different, so it wouldn't be as good of a marinade...
    I don't have a solutions, just thoughts.

    • @johndough8115
      @johndough8115 2 місяці тому

      Maybe. But CO2 actually imparts a slightly bitter taste profile, to any drink... so its possible that the same slight bitterness, was driven into the chicken itself. Hard to say, without testing both.

    I did the oyster sauce on an oyster blade roast and left it for 48hrs... wife said it was probably the best roast I've done. No gravy needed. Highly recommended
