And if it isn't, it certainly needs to be!

+Ashley Dillon the government should be funding this.

I laughed out loud at this. I love Chef John :D

Someone needs to start a collection of chef John quote tshirts

+J Lo Why stop there? Who wouldn't want an official: "Chef John Freakishly Small Wooden Spoon"? :)

I can tell you how to make these so good you will be addicted all over again. 1 pound of sausage (I mix mild with hot, but that is a lot of trouble because you have to buy both so you don't have to), 10oz of extra sharp cheese, and 2 and a half cups of self rising flour( do not use Bisquick). Put the flour in a huge bowl and pour milk into it an stir(keep going until it is soaking wet, then throw the shredded cheese and pinch the sausage up and throw it in. With both hands get in there and mix it together until you get tired of doing it. Smash it together and even make it ooze out of your fingers over and over. Ok this is the most important part. Put it in a glass dish or casserole dish and cover with saran wrap and put it into the fridge. DO NOT COOK until the next DAY! I don't know why, but it never tastes right unless you let it sit in the fridge overnight. The next morning preheat 450 degree and roll them up into balls. Cook for 16 mins. You may need to grease the pan if it isn't non stick. You will thank me if you follow those directions. If you can get Tennessee Pride Sausage use that. If you can not use the most expensive kind in your area. DO NOT USE CHEAP sausage. It makes a huge difference too.

My mom used to make these. Always a hit with my friends and me in high school and one of my friends started callng them "nukies" which has stuck. Lost the recipe when she passed several years ago. Saw this recipe and your comment and now I'm going to go home, cry, and make some nukies...cheers to great moms and Chef John.

@@johnnyvt9 Never thought about waiting to the next day to bake but it does make sense.

Jerrk64 😂🤣😱

Same

caca, but there good pounds

Same here, and I regret nothing!

Sacré bleu, I , also, have watched a hundred of hours of videos these. But, moi, in metric. So moi, I have gained 100 kilograms.

Jesus

Thank you for making that connection! I laughed my ass off (figuratively of course) when he said that and knew that someone else must have caught the joke (Jesus of your cheeses) too. Cheers!

I had to rewind it twice.

@@JonAlycia no shit

Had me cracking up bruh

+MuhLogan He already works for AllRecipes.com...

A necessities video would be nice. What is needed and what's not. Very curious to see what brands you prefer.

no need to. he always says that less is more. If you ever find a fancy tool to do a stupidly uncommon task, just don't buy it. if you think you're gonna use it a lot, then buy it. Chef john doesn't like washing things, so easy to wash = ok. No special pots/pans/bowls/tools are needed to cook. You can do anything with one paring, chef/santoku and bread knives. Any other knife is just a waste.

that's a must for me.. I'm always like where did he get that baking sheet OE the metal tray he uses for drying... I can't make a lost on my own but I think a must have is cast iron pots and pans so they can be tossed in the oven

Sean Ayuso I have an oroley ceramic pan that is nonstick and oven safe (tested), so no need for cast iron, specially if you have a weak stove which will hardly heat the cast iron pot/pan. You have to get what you can use and what you want to use. you see something useful... BAM! buy it (if you can). Just think if it is a proper tool or a one time use stupid buyer's remorse thing

Jackie Clifton Thanks for that tip! Merry Christmas!

I like how clear he speaks. I have hearing problems so a lot of stuff bums me out because I can't hear it. But I can hear his videos, so I like his voice too. :)

His voice is so cheerful in fact listening to him talk makes me happy and hungry

i made a playlist with Videos of him and let it play whenever I have troubles to get to sleep.. kinda creepy but helps too good :D

+Emma Sun i wonder where he's from (i'm a new subscriber) because his voice goes up at the end of every sentence, kinda like he's asking a question. Once I got over that, it's really soothing and good food-inspiration

+Rawr98 I wonder too but I love the way he articulates, it's entertaining and soothing at the same time!

Self rising flour in these tastes way better. Try this recipe you will not regret it. 1 pound of sausage (I mix mild with hot, but that is a lot of trouble because you have to buy both so you don't have to Tennessee Pride brand or as good of quality), 10oz of extra sharp cheese, and 2 and a half cups of self rising flour( do not use Bisquick). Put the flour in a huge bowl and pour milk into it an stir(keep going until it is soaking wet, then throw the shredded cheese and pinch the sausage up and throw it in. With both hands get in there and mix it together until you get tired of doing it. Smash it together and even make it ooze out of your fingers over and over. Ok this is the most important part. Put it in a glass dish or casserole dish and cover with saran wrap and put it into the fridge. DO NOT COOK until the next DAY! I don't know why, but it never tastes right unless you let it sit in the fridge overnight. The next morning preheat 450 degree and roll them up into balls. Cook for 16 mins. You may need to grease the pan if it isn't non stick. You will thank me if you follow those directions. If you can get Tennessee Pride Sausage use that. If you can not use the most expensive kind in your area. DO NOT USE CHEAP sausage. It makes a huge difference too.
