  1. This is so exciting! One of my favorite cooking shows here in YouTube, Binging With Babish, is always citing you and your work during some of my favorite recipes so it's great to finally see the genuine article at work! This dish looks absolutely delicious and I'm going to try to make it! Thank you for everything you do!

  2. I Use A Crock Pot And Cook This With HALF THE HASSEL! 🙂
    Love The Channel Mate.
    PS Making A Chicken Balti In The Crock Pot/Slow Cooker While Watching This BUT I Do Appreciate Your Dedication And A bit of Yourself In The Dish, Lovely Dish Mate 🙂

  3. Couple chef techniques here; used stewing veggies and eating veggies separately. Stewing veg cut in large pieces as should be and eating veg into bite size. Browning and adding other umami sources, I can just imagine the depth of flavor. The cook time and oven method is so important for this cut of beef and he nailed it. Beef remains very juicy and flavorful but fork tender. Bravo, chef!

  4. Very similar to Alton Brown's "Final Pot Roast," and pot roast is probably how I'd describe how mine turned out, which was very thick. Whatever you call it, it's delicious. I like to stretch it out by serving it over bowls of white rice.

  5. You look like a nutjob cook like me. Half the stuff you say is well established culinary technique and the other half is your common sense observations that are just on point but most people don't get it. Good shit bro is what I am trying to say. Love your kitchen too. I bet we could kitchen swap and be at home. And also I think we would know where everything is, but chicks would think we were crazy that way we sort / organize.

  6. Does the one whom they call Kenji ever grace us, the non-anointed, with answers to questions? I just made and it knocked my socks off. My socks are literally across the room. I used the fish sauce rather anchovies and this blew my mind. I thought my stew couldn't be beat, and I was wrong. Question though… can you tell us about your wooden cutting board cleaning/treatments after various types of uses? That'd be a huge help! I just upped my metal bowl game and next step are the cutting boards!

  7. I can see you know your stuff, as I make my stews almost exactly the same way and they are always awesome, when I camp and make a Dutch pot stew i use a bed of charcoals with the pot on a raised rack and a few hot coals on top of the lid this chars the top a little and I always have doughboys- dumplings with my stews. great vid mate.
