Yall should do a video where the boys break down how they set up the gear to create the videos. I know it would be a step away from food videos but a lot of people like me would love to see the behind the scenes of how these videos are made.
Limey comes from when Britian had the world's largest Navy and ruled the seas. The sailors ate limes for Vitamin C to keep from getting scurvy. Often times the smell of the limes stayed with the sailors as they entered ports and thusly became known as limeys. I can't tell you how much you have influenced my cooking that I even changed careers and run a Personal Chef service. Thanks, guys!
I've always heard that early British sailors were suffering of scurvy, due to a lack of vitamin C. Limes were added to the ships' cargo, to remedy the lack.
I believe that's where the term Limey came from. Somewhat derogatory I believe. My dad had friends that road British motorcycles and he called them limey Riders. 😀
I had this uncle who was a troll before the internet was ever a thing. He knew about the limes, but he'd always say things to try and elicit a debate and meltdown like: they eat them limey beans, that's why they call 'em Limey's. 🤣 RIP, Buster, you were a true master in the trolling arts!
Genuine Brit here. The term ‘Limey’ derives from the days when, to avoid scurvy, the Royal Navy would provision their ships with Limes (or more often Lemons) which would be added to their daily ration of rum (grog) to ensure the sailors got their vitamin C. As it happens, nobody in the UK really uses the term ‘Limey’…it’s certainly not offensive to us…unlike whatever kind of ‘tea’ that was; Builders tea, strong enough so the spoon stands up in it, milk and a chocolate hobnob- bliss! Keep up the great stuff guys- your Chicken Caesar Salad is a weekly favourite in our home!
@colin thank you for clearing that up. I have never understood why any brit in their right mind be offended by being called a limey, I've never heard anyone calling a brit a limey in a derogatory way, or why any non-brit would consider it a derogatory term to call a brit that.
One of the best things I ever got for barbecuing was 18" tongs, realized they were so great I ordered two more so I'm never out, my fingers are thankful!
Made this last night and it was so good. Everything blends so well. My wife normally doesn’t like lime flavored foods and she said it was a 10 out of 10. I had to stop myself from eating all the chicken. Well done Sam.
Made this chicken plus roasted red peppers and onionsfor dinner tonight with a selection of salads - yum! Next time - will cook in oven with marinade, add double cream and peppers and onion….. thanks Sam!
🔥 been watching forever Sam truly inspired my outlook on cooking, love to see your takes on Japanese style cooking or incorporating wasabi somehow like you did with the tuna.
We made this and it is absolutely one of the best things ever cooked, even though we used almost bottom shelf tequila. Liked it so much I bought your Between the Buns cookbook.
Great show Sam, 👏 that is why we are here! I have taken chicken out and will marinate it for tomorrow. That's kinda like taco 🌮 Tuesday, we started on Tuesday 😂🤣 thanks for the entertainment and suggestion for supper 😉 keep up the great work and we will be here 👍
Easy peasy taco shells: Use two large can lids, folded to an angle of 40-]45 degrees, as the "bread", and the uncooked tortilla as the "meat" of a sandwich. Fry to the desired doneness in the oil.
Small cooking hack: when I heat my pre-bought taco shells in the toaster oven I crumble up some foil to make little foil balls and stuff two in the shells to hold them open. Wondering if this might work in your situation? I’d love to make fresh ones like you did. ☮️
You videos have been a “go-to” for me lately. Not only for the great recipes and knowledge but for the random and authentic humor. Might be slightly jealous of the grilling,flattop, prep area yall have going on. Thanks!
Max is on a roll today, as usual.. sweet the camera moves on its own. so the zipper on the storage bags dont get "cucked up" I fold it back(like the top of your sheet over your blanket) then put whatever in and unfold it back squeeze the air out zip it up...
I NEVER thought I'd hear: "But what you haven't done is cucked up the sides of your zipper. Now the're nice and dry." on Sam The Cooking Guy. Keep up the great content!
One of the things that makes me laugh every time is that Sam is always so surprised when things are hot, like the food, the grill, etc. Like he's never cooked before or something. Edited to note: I was cooking beef stir fry for dinner in a sleeveless tee shirt just now, and the hot oil was splattering all over the place. I was dancing around the kitchen swearing, much like Sam. Karma is a bitch.
Sam, your way of placing the plastic wrap touching the guacamole is the best way to preserve it; hands down. Just a thought but have you considered grill mitts? Maybe the boys could pitch in for an upcoming birthday, anniversary, holiday?
@gearhedMG, I agree. I also love the coming back of not bleeping out the curse words, that's Sam & Max's style, I love it. Shut up snow flakes & Karen's. Love the videos guys, oh yeah, the food looked awesome.👍👍
The expression of Limeys came from days of a lack of a balanced diet onboard naval ships. It was discovered that limes kept for much longer, than other fruits and vegetables. The British Navy gave every sailor one Lime to each sailor, with the intention of keeping them free of contracting scurvy!
Just a fyi, I did this at Whataburger when i worked there. Stop fighting the Tortilla Shell. Just hold it under the oil, Lift up here and there just so it doesnt get hard closed...but you don't need to use 2 hands on this...If you do that in a Deep fryer, its so much easier, just press down between the shells as it goes under......Good Show!!!!!
I just tried this recipe and as someone who normally mindlessly digests cooking videos, this was some of the best chicken I've ever had! This is my new go-to for grilled chicken, thank you!!!
Tortilla directly on a gas burner, after it gets warm and slightly chard, wrap it around a small rolling pin or a piece of PVC pipe. When the tortillas cool a bit slide them off the rolling pin, remember a smaller than normal rolling pin. A normal size is to Large
Pro tip: When you put the corn tortilla in the oil let it sit for 3-5 secs then flip it and let the other side cook for 3-5 secs THEN flip again & start folding the tortilla. Doing this makes the tortilla pliable and will prevent it from ripping.
I just buy store bought hard shells. Put on a rack in a 400 degree oven for 5 minutes, stand them on the top. Comes out just the same if not better (no burns). Making this tomorrow night for dinner with a few mods. Thanks
Sam. I’ve tried both ways that you tried to do the corn tortilla tacos today. Neither one of them work consistently. Try frying them in a shallow vegetable oil flat for about 20 to 30 seconds on each side and then place them in one of your restaurant holders/molders . Works perfectly every time.
Yes! IMAO! My mother used to make them; I make them! You are cooking the tortilla with out the filling ! You put the filling, close the tortilla with tooth picks; then you cook them!
Made these this weekend, 9/10. I hesitate to give a perfect score because once we do that, theres no need for improvement. These were delicious. I even heard my picky eating 4 year old say "this are delicious" in my head, but shes at her mothers. Thanks for another great recipe!
You need longer tongs. (That's what she said!) Noticed that in satay chicken. Also, if you fry something and need to drain put newspapers beneath your paper towels. Absorbs better and don't use as many paper towels.
I remember from school 50 years ago that the British sailors would get scurvy, deficiency of vitamin C, characterized by swollen bleeding gums and the opening of previously healed wounds. So they used limes to cure it.
After the tortilla has been cooked in the oil for 10-15 sec. just drape it across 2 of the grill grates not over a running burner. Perfect size opening and no flare-up from oil dripping off onto a flame. You probably won't burn yourself as much either.
Sam, 7:26 where you toss one of the avocado pits into the guacamole because supposedly the pit helps keep it fresh. A brilliant kid at the elementary school I attended did a school science fair experiment proving that the pit thing is a misconception. If you toss the pit into the guacamole, the guacamole under the pit remains fresh and light green while everything around it turns brown *because of oxidation*. In this kid's experiment, he had a control guacamole with no pit, one with a pit stuck in it, one with a lightbulb stuck in it, and one with plastic wrap pressed down to exclude any contact with the air. The lightbulb performed as well as the pit, keeping the guacamole under the lightbulb bright green, but the plastic wrap performed better than them both. If there were something about the pit itself that did this, the lightbulb should not have performed as well as it did. All these things ended up doing was keeping the guac from contacting the air where it was pressed against the guac.
i turn a muffin pan upside down and fold the shells and place them between the muffin holes, and if you put the tortilla over the bottom of the muffin holes, you can make a taco shell bowl.
Instead of the avocado pit and cellophane to keep the guac from turning, just use aluminum foil & cover it like you do with the plastic film. I cover half used avos the same way & BOOM no browning!
Sam, your killing me. Love the show always. 2 suggestions: Long tongs and tea tree oil will stop the burn almost immediately. Eat at your places often when in SD.
It's my understanding that the term "limey" came from the fact that the Brits use to carry Limes on their ships back in the 1800s to fight scurvy. As you know Enlgand was/is a major sea power but back in the day their sailors would come down with scurvy when at sea too long. someone figured out that the cause of scurvy was lack of vitamin C. So the Royal navy stated carrying limes to give to their sailors. Thus the nickname limey
Fold the tortilla in half and grab with tongs and dip just the fold into the oil till it hardens and will hold its shape then lay it down in the oil for a sec to fry the side then flip and do the other side.
When he said “someone’s probably at home laughing” he wasn’t lying. My wife and I where dying of laughter 😂
I miss the days of Sam using the entire roll of paper towels to wipe his face.
The good ol days
I always thought that move was evidence that sam is a serial killer.
I've seen it as recent as the Father's Day video.
He still does lol
That made me cringe lol
Yall should do a video where the boys break down how they set up the gear to create the videos.

@Gonzo Yes that’d be great.
And even show insights to their pre show rituals.
I swear they’re nicely ‘tuned’ before making some of their episodes.

You should check out Kent Rollins.
I've always heard that early British sailors were suffering of scurvy, due to a lack of vitamin C. Limes were added to the ships' cargo, to remedy the lack.
It was specifically because everyone else used lemons, which were more expensive
@@GIBBO4182 but, they said no to the oranges in this video because they were a bloody mess. 🍊
I believe that's where the term Limey came from. Somewhat derogatory I believe. My dad had friends that road British motorcycles and he called them limey Riders. 😀
Hence why the British are sometimes called "Limeys". It's not necessarily a derogatory term, also not necessarily a term of endearment.

Yes I was laughing hysterically. Not because there’s a better way, I just thoroughly enjoyed watching this
Hands down best unfiltered cooking show.
Love Max’s commentary and Sam just trying to stop him from tanking the viewership from England.
I wonder if he even knows it’s considered an insult?
@@GIBBO4182 you would be suprised by how little people research british derogatory words to avoid lol
@@iluvtonyhawk He said several, including the "C" word, which offends Americans more than Brits. That being said...tacos!
@@iluvtonyhawk Because nobody cares what Brits think, not even other Brits. 😛
One of the best things I ever got for barbecuing was 18" tongs, realized they were so great I ordered two more so I'm never out, my fingers are thankful!
What were you using before??
@@Shabla7 little 6 inch tongs like Sam was.
@@Shabla7 Regular sized tongs, obviously.
@@Shabla7 12" tongs, I still have them and use them for quick things, I also have the two seen in this video.
I love this guy and his attitude with making his videos! Keep it up!
Just pressed play, haven't even watched entire video, just stopping by comment section to tell you how much I love all that you do!!
👍👍👍
Missed that. Lol

1:25 Sam went full Jeff Goldblum.
The bag stand was cool! You can use a regular tea/Kool Ade pitcher as well.
These tacos 🌮 looked legit!! Love the videos!

🔥 been watching forever Sam truly inspired my outlook on cooking, love to see your takes on Japanese style cooking or incorporating wasabi somehow like you did with the tuna.
That transition at 13:39 flipping sides of the grill was cool!
Yes Sam you’re right!!! I am definitely laughing up a storm 😂😂I can always count on y’all for a huge laugh thanks.
Yeah this dude makes me LOL he does the dumbest stuff but he don't care. He's awesome, "Fuck it"
Limey is a term originating in sailors having to eat limes to keep off the scurvy.
Sam’s version of a taco salad? ❤️👍🏻🥃🇺🇸🇨🇦
🇲🇽?
They do make long tongs and heat proof oven gloves. That would help.
We made this and it is absolutely one of the best things ever cooked, even though we used almost bottom shelf tequila. Liked it so much I bought your Between the Buns cookbook.

Welcome! #earlygang
Me too
Right!!! 😂
With a heat index of 115 today, grilling outside is the only way I will be cooking. Thank you in advance for what's for dinner tonight!
As a Brit I take no offence. Loving todays recipe, thank you.
Everything about this is good. Thank you.
Max is on a roll today, as usual.. sweet the camera moves on its own.

The crunch sound of that taco gave me so much serotonin.
Making the mother of all tacos,Jack,can't fret over every tacos

perfect recipe 4 TACO TUESDAY!!!
This Limey just adores Margarita Chicken!!!
Rad ! Thanks brotha, Note: Pre-cook tortillas over an open flame for a few turns, then fry’em. They won’t crumble. Cheers.
Chicken in the fridge marinading and I’ll make sour cream sauce tomorrow - can’t wait to try it!
I fry mine then use a wire rack and put the shells open side down and let them cool perfect shells every time. No burning hands in the grease
Made this last night, really good!
Sam's laugh at the limey pucks is hilarious. This also looks amazing, trying it tonight!
Absolutely fantastic !!!
Definitely lookin tastey!
Any chance you could make a "sam's favourite" cocktail on an upcoming video? ........please
Cut the tortilla in half when frying. You don't have to worry about the shape when you layer with a soft taco and fold.
This was the most relatable cooking video ever. Love it
Squeeze lime juice on top of guac keeps it from turning brown too, then when ready just mix! 😎
Making these tonight! Minus the guacamole, but I HAVE THE TACO 🌮 SHELL TONGS WOOT WOOT! ❤️ y’all, Kristy in Missouri 😃🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Definitely had to like because of all of the pain that went into the shells 😂
I just buy store bought hard shells. Put on a rack in a 400 degree oven for 5 minutes, stand them on the top. Comes out just the same if not better (no burns). Making this tomorrow night for dinner with a few mods. Thanks
Looks amazing n now us Limey's have decent warm weather I'm gonna fire the barbie up n try this in't next few days!
I will be making these soon! Looks so good!
I love what you put out for us. You have changed so many BBQ's, breakfasts, munch and dinners. So thankful for you! (and your knives)
The chicken and guac looks awesome. I might pass on the taco shells though 😅

Scurvy was common in the Royal Navy, they would carry large stocks of limes to ward off scurvy. Soon they were called limeys.
Looks yummy. Going to make them tonight.
Made these all I can say Fire 🔥
Wow, that different that how I do it. I start by having 3 shots of TQ, and then I make tacos 🌮…… Great video !!!!
Awesome Cookery, keep up the great work, you and "your boys" are very entertaining, Thank You
We love seeing Sam getting injured or hurt in his videos 🤣
He’s so funny!
Yes! IMAO! My mother used to make them; I make them! You are cooking the tortilla with out the filling ! You put the filling, close the tortilla with tooth picks; then you cook them!
Just made this tonight. AMAZING. That chicken just hit different. Thank you once again for another home run recipe.
