Sam you I can’t even describe how much your channel has upgraded my life! The other day I had a croquet monsieur at a restaurant. I was so blown away I wanted to make one myself. I searched KZfaq for a recipe and sure enough my old pal Sam already had a recipe for me!! Made it this morning for me and the Mrs with the fried egg on top (Madame) ... let’s just say: Breakfast of Champions! Thank you Sam!!!

I worked in a restaurant where we made fries from potatoes freshly cut in house, I have a pro tip: if you let them sit in the water in the fridge overnight they get extra crispy and delicious when fried.

Since stumbling upon your channel, I have cooked more in last 6 months than I ever have in my 54 years of life. I have made a couple of dozen of your recipes and several of them multiple times. Keep up the good work! That’s what she said….😮😮

I recently had bulgogi beef queso fries, it was incredibly good. I'd not have thought that fried kimchi, sesame fries, bulgogi beef, queso, and a slightly spicy sauce would've been so tasty but it blew me away. This whole process reminds me of that a bit, fries as a base for other delicious things is always a good idea.

Almost like fries from Newfoundland where they top fries with chicken/turkey stuffing, loose ground beef and beef gravy. Needless to say, it sits in ones stomach like a kettle bell weight.

My Mom made the BEST fries ever - crisp on the outside, and fluffy on the inside, and never greasy. She did it by deep frying them ONCE, no blanching, just in the oil until they were done, and then out, and into a brown paper bag for seasoning, and to absorb the excess fat. A couple of years ago, America’s Test Kitchen did an entire episode on French fries, and their conclusion was that making them the way my Mom did produced their best fries.

I just realized that your videos slow me down. I'm more mindful, more appreciative and less rushed - even just making coffee. The gardening channel I watch winds me up and they're really the only two channels I regularly watch - weird!

Watched you for 3 years now. You changed my liife. My wife was always cooking before, but now? I’m the chef and i began to love cooking! Thank you Sam. I will always follow you. Greetings from Denmark

In the Netherlands, there is Patat Oorlog or French Fries War! So put in twice fried fries, add on top pinda (peanut sauce same as sate) sauce, dutch mayo and chopped onions

I would love to have a little bit more cheese! But this looks bomb as hell!

Want to up your fries game? Use coconut oil, the subtle flavour makes them even better.

I was making burgers and fries for dinner now im making this cause i have an idea to either make a chipotle mayo sauce to dip in or put directly on top thanks for this idea

Now that is NY official! btw the run in, run out deli we just call it a "bodega". This looks delicious!

Another good fry dish is fries, shredded cabbage, fried chicken, shredded cheese, Buffalo sauce, and ranch

It took a Canadian to create "Bodega Poutine"

Yes, gravy would be better than salad. Another vote for gravy instead. Thanks the 3 Amigos!

Love a private cooking class, we’re huge fans here

Definitely Super Bowl treat!

Next Chopped Cheese Nachos!

Hey Sam Canadian who lives in California here 🏄‍♂️! Make a new version of the famous poutine please! Cheers

Sam, on the subject of fries and knowing how much you love a runny egg…there is a special dish made in Madrid - a famous restaurant called Casa De Lucia - that is simply fries, runny eggs and salt all mixed in. So simple but so delicious. Great as a starter or a side. Perhaps something to make to accompany one of your burgers.

What do you do with your oil when your finished using the deep fryer? That’s the only reason I haven’t bought one, no idea what to do with the old oil.

should've put the censor blur over the second bite, that would've been hilarious 😂😂

Here’s my one suggestion for it cook it animal style and add your sauce of Japanese Mayo, Ketchup, Mustard, and Pickles on top of it

Sam turns on the grinder. Gardeners: “Why does he always turn that damn thing on when we start working?”

The great thing about watching STCG is you not only learn something but it is entertaining and and you can make use of it in your real life.

Well, this has been around for a long time here in Tennessee. We slice the potatoes cross ways, fry them in oil in a skillet with the onions. In another pan, cook your hamburger with salt and pepper. When done, drain all on a paper towel lined plate to reduce oil. Top with cheese and melt. Here it's called tater mash. Some of the best food you can ever wrap your lips around.

My husband and I watch your channel and write down everything we are going to make. We love your whole family.

can we get a series of cheap meals that will be great and feed 4 people?

Chopped Cheese Fries, Brilliant! Why haven't I thought of this..

I made these for my family super bowl party, and they were DEVOURED! It was my first time making fries too! Thanks for the recipe Sam!

Made these tonight! I did not make fries, as time was short. They were excellent!

Quick question, what is the audio and video gear you all use? Everything always looks so crisp, and I’m personally only starting in video and photography and I have issues with focus and graininess. Yeah I know it’s unrelated to the food 😅 which looks so appetizing by the way!

hi there mr cooking guy, i found you while searching for chow mien. no need to double fry your french fries. i am the queen of home made french fries and my mom made them for me all the time growing up and soon learned how. And i always rushed to put them into hot oil, unknown to me at the time, that that is the best way to cook them in oil. Start them in cold oil, completely immersed in oil, and then turn the stove on medium high. no need to turn the heat down, and do not turn them for at least 10 min. this way, in cold oil, they poach, and then fry to a nice crisp just as you would get double frying them. trust me.

Yo! try the “kapsalon”. it's a dutch one. This dish appeared only in the early 2000s and is simply fried potatoes covered with döner (or shawarma meat) and gouda cheese that is then melted in the oven. On top, pieces of shredded lettuce and a garlic based sauce with sambal are placed before serving.

Mmmm. Lunch on Tuesday. Have a few other things to finish up before shopping again. Cam and Shawn

Then add guac,sour cream ,and refried beans. It's insane. 😋😋😋

Hi Sam... look into a Belgium treat called a Mitraillette (with Frikandel). Make that! :) a piece of Baguette, 2 Frikadellen, topped with French Fries and a ton of sauce... heaven on a bun..

That’s the “PROBLEM” with owning a deep fryer. “I’ll use it more than I think I would”.

basically a fancy fries supreme lol

i could never have figured this out on my own

I don't want a giveaway you're just an awesome/entertaining cooking show! Dynamite videography/editing, and every dish I've attempted has come out delicious. Thanks fellas!

AMAZING! And just for grins... FUA! I'm definitely making this. My beef blend is usually Brisket, Tri-Tip, and chuck, but I suppose I need to try some rib meat in lieu of the chuck next. Oh and pro tip, rub a little wagu beef tallow all over the beef before grinding next time! And I definitely need a deep fryer soon. Thanks guys!

I made this tonight. It is a keeper. I used store bought crinkle cut fries. I fried them in Crisco. I had more ground beef thawed than I thought, so I had to use more cheese. We had one serving left for my husband to take for lunch tomorrow. I can use the meat recipe as a base for a variety of dishes.

I really love your channel 😊Thank you very much

"I think you'll find you use it more than you think" That's what I'm afraid of and why I don't own one LOL.

Double fry method only really works if you pop them in the freezer for a bit (helps release moisture, as in water in the potatoes) and will get crispy on the second fry. But he immediately put them back in so not really making a difference

Who else would want to eat somthing Sam made ?

Hey Sammi here a idea those potatoes skin you peeled off. Do like fries but I fry the skins then put on plate with ground beef or small beef tips Mexican seasoning now Potatoes ground beef Yellow onion Banana peppers Lettuce Horseradish sauce horseradish Mayo or sour cream salt pepper mix take a few tablespoons spoonful on center tomatoes and scallions

We have also took our cast iron fajita pans...deep ones..put in the fries..the beef and veggies...then cheese and broil to brown cheese.. very forkable..

It's a cheeseburger deluxe with fries all in one pile...perfect. And yes, this would be great to make for Superbowl Sunday. 🏈

Where’s da chili!!!!! Great idea plus fast!!! Great job guys!!!

Looks amazing. Sam can you do a video where you cook tilapia three or four different ways?

Of course Sam takes home the least! He's here showing us how to cook while cooking for his two, legitimate sons! They are all related by blood after all! (This just in, yes I know Chance is not Sam's real son. He is just like, his work adopted son that gets to reap all the tasty, tasty benefits)

Sam, wash the skins of the potatoes and then fry the skins. The best little homemade chips!!

Will definitely be doing this once we get camping again. Gonna be awesome outside on the griiiiillll

Now, trying doing the Prince Edward Island specialty, Fries with the Works, using all fresh ingredients (no canned peas, please!).

Nice! Gonna have to make this

I feel like this is turning into an upscale (and still stoner) version of Epic Meal Time........just fancier. I love it.

My wife just said “That friggin Sam…..he’s bad for our figures”

About to try this out while I’m snowed in this weekend!

Single frying French fries is like going to sleep after foreplay

Hey Sam can you do a SPAGHETTI SANDWICH?

Been making the chop cheese sammich since last year. Can't wait to try this!! Would love to see a good meat stromboli please!

I’m sure it’s really really good. Messy A F snack but definitely going to make this in the near future. Super Bowl FOOD!!!!

You need to try carne asada fries. There is/was a small restaurant not too far from Camp Pendleton 20+ years ago that made them. So awesome, meat sour cream and cheese on top of the fries.

You can't go wrong adding some Applewood bacon to that.

so it's a poutine without the gravy ?! :)

"I quite like skins on potatoes. When I don't do it I wish I had." Two weeks Later. "So my style is to peel the potatoes."

thats some stylish hand writing

Brought back some ooold memories from the 60's. My Mom would make the basics (no triple meat, just grd rnd) with tater tots instead of fries. The rest is almost exactly the same, but we didn't have mature taste buds so why bother with expensive stuff. I remember it tasting as good as you looked like you enjoyed it. So you've got real classic comfort food with heavy upgrades. Too good. YUM!

Love the variety of stuff you do. Another good one here!

With all the gadgets I can’t believe he has no fry cutter

Can you make a video of how you would prepare some ham steaks. I have a bunch and would like to see your take on how to make them.

Just saw the grilled vegetable video. Whether you do a video or not, try bacon wrapped asparagus in the air fryer.

Next time instead of garlic try chicken bouillon to season it omg so fire

Like a burger without the chewing 😂 looks amazing

I don't like fries but I like small square potato pieces - a much better crunch to mush ratio.

I probably gonna make sams chopped beef sandwich this weekend looks delicious

FYI: add curd cheese and you can call this a poutine!!!

Add sour cream, green onion and it's a high end version of Taco Bell's Fries Supreme!

Super bowel idea...make a bunch of the cheese meat goodness but add in some cream cheese, top with cheese and bake in a big pan, and use waffle fries or fried tater rounds to scoop.

Great for nachos, too!!!!

Love your videos you always give me new ideas on how to cook new things

I just made these and I just had a massive code brown event.

Where's the cubed dill pickle?! That would be so awesome!

You should try that with chorizo mixed in

You do realize as a restaurant owner that double frying is extremely difficult in restaurant

Hey Sam…. Love the show….. love you with Max and Chance! Whilst we don’t have a deep fryer but we do have an air fryer which I believe are becoming more popular…. Can you do something Sam-azing with an air fryer???

Don't underestimate the taste of a raw potato. Sprinkle some salt on that and you've got a yummy snack.

Thanksgiving on Coney Island, chopped cheese n Arizona ya heard

If I wanted to grind my own beef and wanted 80/20 or 70/30, how can you tell what ratio you’re gonna end up with? Do you just eyeball it?

Well my wife sure as hell won’t be happy once I use the kitchen table for this but here we are. Looks delicious as always.

what if and hear me out. what if you replaced the onion with Pickle this would be amazing.

What about adding a dash of baking soda to the meat for browning? A tip America's Test Kitchen often uses.

American cheese: the bologna of cheese. All the left-over crap from making good cheeses mixed together.

I’ve always wanted to open a sandwich shop called “between the buns”

Thanks for the vid, always entertaining as usual 😁 with great recipes! What type of meat grinder do you have and what type of oil for the deep fryer did you use?

I can see you adding Jalapenos to this!

I've been doing this for awhile.. I use beer battered fries...and shadow steak from my butcher..I roll mushrooms and pepperoncini with provolone i...my wife prefers green pepper instead and mozzarella.. it's amazing..it happened by accident.. making cheese steaks and the bread wasn't baked all the way..we timed it wrong..said fuck it..who needs a bun..and just combined it...
