Byamazingfoodstv


At Redbird BBQ in Port Neches, Texas, pitmaster Amir Jalali is serving some of the most distinctive Texas-style barbecue in the state. Recently named #4 on Texas Monthly’s Top 50 BBQ Joints list, Redbird blends classic Central Texas technique with the flavors of Jalali’s Persian and Cajun upbringing. Their standout dish is a one-of-a-kind koobideh sausage, served with house-made pita and a creamy feta dip. Jalali also serves up classic Texas barbecue staples like brisket and ribs, alongside Cajun-rubbed turkey, scalloped potatoes, and more.

  11. I am so blessed to live in Port Neches. Everything they make is off the chain. I’ve eaten at a lot of places on Texas Monthly’s top 50 lists over the years and every time I go here I’m completely overwhelmed by how good everything is. Amir is behind the counter every time taking our order. Crazy dedication and love for his product.

  18. Great chef, great restaurant but I’m going to say it for all the Cajuns, he is a poser, growing up in Texas over a hour from Cajun country and he can’t even say the word Cajun right, probably does not even know one word of French! He can’t be serious? Don’t claim things you are not! I’m three hours from California and even though my mom is from Southern California I’m not a part of there culture or there heritage or anything that has to do with there style of cooking, I love California and been there often but I’m born and raised in the PNW, dude needs to smarten up he is disrespectful towards people that are Cajun or come from there background. It’s fine to like their food, but you don’t act like you are one of them!

  23. Please go back to the original subtitles being the default and not dubbing over them with what seems like AI for the non-English speaking chefs. Multiple translations are completely different from what he says, and it completely kills any sense of authenticity or connection to the chefs as they talk. Please change this because it is unwatchable to me, and I almost turned off a video from years ago I was rewatching before I realized you can change it. I love this channel and have been watching for years, and don't want others to lose interest in this channel because of this. Thank you guys and girls involved for showing all of us common folk the amazing detail and care all these chefs take every day to make food that most of us will never be able to afford to experience in person.
