I use a potato masher to make pulled meats.
Fabulous

I love all our ATK hosts and presenters, but am I allowed to say Erin is my favourite? #moreerin
When I was in my teens, I spent a lot of time indoors pulling my chicken.
243 layers, BTW 🙂

MS. Becky' cooking 😁😋💔🌹🌸🌷👌👏👏👏 ✟✡✟ U S A 🎉🎉🎈🎉🌻
We buy the winner of the Basmati rice taste test and love it!
I have found that using hot dog buns comes in handy when eating pulled chicken or pulled pork or sloppy Joe's. You dont have to worry about the sauce and the meat going everywhere. Especially if your dressed up or have nicer clothes on.

My mom buys that basmasti and she’s a little Bengali lady if you need mom credibility to that choice too 🙂
Can the flakey biscuit dough be made the night before, refrigerated until morning to bake? Great Show, been going back through lots of past shows I missed. Found y'all during the isolation and improved my cooking and utensils, skillets and Instant Pot. By Age On Social Security and made mt first pot roast, Beef Stew, Pork Loin Chops and Pinto Beans. Always made Chili, TEXAS STYLE, No BEANS, Spaghetti with meat sauce, Chili Mac and a few others but have stepped up my game from watching ATK and Country Kitchen
Only 1.3M subscribers….means most of the world is in pure darkness
nice 🙂
Looks like puff pastry
If I was wearing a white shirt and eating that BBQ chicken, my shirt would be spotted with sauce.
I made the chicken & biscuits tonight. Sooo very good!
Just when I was thinking that I didn’t like the sound of liquid smoke 💨, You stopped to explain what it is exactly. Thank you for clearing that up! Great 👍🏼 ☺️ very helpful indeed ☺️
Watch me make this “pulled effort” with turkey-thigh meat, boneless and skinless, of course! 😁
Thanks for the tips on the cheese planes and the basmati rice! And the flaky biscuits!
I love ATK for all of their fabulous recipes and valuable tips, I also love that ATK allows viewers to see women EATING things they want to eat without “eating shame”! Or stopping to cut the daintiest bites for their dainty mouths!
Those biscuits!
Did she mean 9.5 inch square at the end? An 8.5 inch doesn’t make sense to me for making 9 evenly sized squares (after trimming 1/4 inch around the edges).
