/ck/ - Food & Cooking

You like that guy?

I ran into him once at a grocery store in Los Angeles. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

Afaik, Chef Wang is the only one who knows his shit.

>>19379696
He looks like a fag but I'm a fan of How To Drink

>>19381280
>He looks like a fag but I'm a fan
Why did you feel the need to say this motherfucker. Are you really afraid to be judged by anons on 4chan for youtubers you watch? Just own it, faggot.

>>19379696
>his tips and meal preps are actually achievable for an average human, no fancy equipment needed and the results aren't half bad either
you just described adam ragusea and the majority of chef john recipes

He looks like hell and knows it

>>19381280
I hate this literal closset faggot for political reasons.

>>19381355
He's got a wife and kid

>>19381354
Any video could be his last. I'm worried Ja/ck/ bros

I like this guy. His stuff is very good, very approachable, and he seems to know/get what the average person is willing to do.

Townsends is the hero we need.

>>19381864
Love me some ja/ck/ino
Best foodtuber by a wide margin

>>19381264
Chef Wang is great. Him starting a new apprenticeship just so he could learn a new type of Chinese cooking earned respect from me.

These guys are on a similar level, if not a bit above.

>>19381354
>>19381864
>>19382063
Wait he had a stroke? Haven't kept up with Ja/ck/ since I left this board some years back. I guess I've got some catching up to do.

>>19382177
I think he's had multiple. He was in the hospital for a month or so after the last one and still can't move his right arm. I dont think he's not slurring his words as bad anymore, so thats a plus.
I love to heckle him in his video comments and shitpost here about him, so i really hope he does get better because it's poor taste to insult the dead.

>>19381864
>>19382177
>>19382063
>>19382203
He had one in 2011, one in 2018, and one in 2023. Probably had one in 2009 or so based on his old blogs. He's only ever tried to lose weight twice in this span. His brother suggesting keto to him is also the reason he has had two in five years. Also what are you talking about, he slurs his words like a drunk now. It's sad.

>>19382249
Just checked out some of his latest videos and that hanging eye is the saddest part. At least he can somewhat use his right hand now, but that's permanent brain damage done. Doesn't he have another way to provide for his family, because I don't think he should even be on YouTube in that condition?

I fucking hate post monetization youtube with a passion and I hate all of these narcissistic faggots treating their shit like it's some sort of mutant abortion of a tv show. It was far more enjoyable when it was just people making videos they wanted to make because they enjoyed it instead of soyzilla niggers like what OP posted.

>>19382288
There's still plenty of that good stuff being made. You just need to dig a little deeper through all the moneygrab bullshit.

>>19382276
He CAN use his right hand, but doesn't. If he worked it out it wouldn't have atrophied. Just like how he CAN walk but chooses not to. Look at this shit. He's given up.

>>19382297
I know, it just fills me with disgust and hatred seeing these open mouthed subhuman fucking cunts so frequently. I use a plugin to blacklist the faggots on my desktop but you still see them elsewhere like here.

The most recent good channel I found is this guy:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlDSUttS3-o

Italian dude who cooks traditional recipes, no bullshit, no sponsorships, no gay shit, just cooking.

>>19379696
Never seen him and that bullshit apron looks like it weighs a fucking ton

>>19382301
Lol I think it's the polar opposite. He hasn't given up an inch of his previous attitude to health or life in general.

>>19382316
Based ancient history enjoooooer. I liked Metatron and Lindybeige a while back. Lindy could be clueless as fuck, but at least he did his thing out of pure passion.

I like Claire Saffitz

>>19382375
based and I'd add a couple more grey streaks to her hair if you know what I'm saying

for me it's Chef Jooooooooooohn from Foooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood wishes dot cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom

>>19382301
God is definitely laughing at him

>>19382392
;:) oh yeah buddy I know what you're saying.

>>19382337
He hasn't given it up because he believes waking up every day and not being dead means he's right about everything

>>19382405
based

>tfw one of my favorite food related tubers turned out to be a literal chomo

>>19382610
Based Joey's world tour fan

I'm not easily triggered by e-celebs but it's amazing the sheer diversity of obnoxious cunts out there cooking on youtube.

raugseasisters...

i like preppykitchen

>>19382024
Yeah, because all I want to eat when I get home after a long shift is fuckin' hard tack and salt pork.

I forgot the channel since i never subscribed to it and stop watching it after getting a rutine on what i cooked but there is this one youtube who will post recipes for big meals that he then splits into 5 boxes for you to eat during the week and showing the fat, calories, sugars, etc of every portion

>>19382718
this and this >>19382405
recipes and some jokes are fine but cunts like that Alt-Lopez guy are too far on the cringe-o-meter

>>19379696
I just watch Sorted, bunch of lads with some good banter while they cook some food

>>19379696
I like James Makinson, he seems like a nice guy and has diverse experience

>>19382408
I laughed way too hard at this. Does anyone else enjoy browsing his Facebook? It's peak boomer posting

>>19382610
>hello food fans

>>19379696
>using the word foodtuber

>>19383818
It's breddy gud

>>19382983
Mealprepmanual?

I like a lot of them as long as the food they make is relatable and easily replicated and they don't do that cringy tiktok style fast camera cut bullshit.

>>19384693
>Him trying to hide the fact that he's moving into a house on Jack Jr's property due to difficulties
Lol

>>19384850
I fucking hate Americans so much

>>19385066
You're jelly. we still manage to rule the world while our president has dementia, our population are overweight, stroked out assholes, and we export nothing but inflation and degeneracy. There's nothing you impotent whores can do about it.
Lie down in your grave or face nuclear annihilation, slave.

>>19385066
agreed
americans are disgusting
look at this shit

>>19385066

>>19379696
I like that jewish scoience guy ragusea, but not sure if he counts as food tuber.

>>19384693
Is it confirmed he's moving into Jack Jr's property?

How the mighty have fallen

>>19386075
Isn't this the son he hates?

This guy dropped off my radar HARD after his brother split.
Brothers Green made food prep approachable as a dipshit teenager. They really pushed the idea that there isn't just one way to do things, and that being creative with what you have can be more fulfilling than just following a recipe, authenticity be damned. Which was a breath of fresh air, coming from the increasingly ever-present ideology that "deviation" and "bastardization" are synonymous. They are genuinely one of the reasons I feel as comfortable in the kitchen as I do.

When I dropped "Pro Home Cooks", he came off as parodying the pretentious and blatantly bought-off Food Network types, the kind of people they used to poke fun at, but was 100% serious. It looks like he's since transitioned to being an algorithm abusing advertisement.
>Vitamix™ is the only blender you should own
>top ten 15-minute meals that will change your life!
>best of tiktok compilation #29
>instant noodle showdown!
>don't even try to make pizza without the Breville™ Smart Oven® Pizzaiolo!

Brothers Green was juvenile, sure. But at least it WAS something.

>>19386855
Spain on a Fork is definitely solid.

>>19379696
Soybois overcomplicate single task and give useless tips to keep their audiences from leaving their stupid long videos so they get more pennies from their masters.
when I want to see a video of how to properly cook a recipe, I look for videos no longer than 5 mins.

>>19386625
>No the one he choked out is Garrett
I still can't believe how he was bragging about that on a podcast

I'm a fan of Apron.
Just baking stuff, no voice over, no stupid jokes, just baking.

>>19386535
>>19386855
rick bayless is probably the best english language resource for mexican cooking. unpretentious, matter of fact, lucid. can't really shill him enough.

>>19382375
She has gotten bulky in the last year.
I miss the BA test kitchen bros

>>19379696
ragusea is the only one i dont find that annoying or uncomfortable

>>19379696
this is a chef john board

>>19387618
He hasn't spoken to Garrett in over six years. He absolutely fucking hates the kid and has completely disowned him, very Christian of him

>>19387807
is it because he smoked the devil's lettuce?

>>19387821
And pushed his wife for yelling at him about it. It's what led to the choking until his nose bled. Garrett doesn't want to see Jack either but apparently still worries about his health

>>19387717
Go back to filming your wife get fucked by some stranger, adam

>>19387716
~2017 BA test kitchen was kino....

Favorite is pic related even tho he barely makes videos anymore.

But I like food wishes as well. I also watch that pretentious French engineer guy.

Farms used to have it but now there's a wiki I think and also occasionally here

I want to make the baked beans recipe he posted today for Father's Day

>>19388261
>>19388034

You are looking at Jacques Pépin, one of the best chefs ever to grace the screen, the guy wrote one of the best (if not the best) cooking books ever (La Technique).

As for the French engineer guy I guess he means Alex, they both appear in this one:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5__zptEU9vE

>>19388649
I enjoy his old videos where the producers clearly directed him to cook French food but “healthy.”
>adds water
>”you could use wine, it would be better”
>adds cooking spray
>”you could use butter, it would be better”

From his later videos in his own home you can tell he’s still a pretty healthy guy but I wonder if he was seething all the time.

Internet Shaquille is the only one for me

>>19389024
DSP will actually fumble his way through things you wouldn't expect, and his extreme haters are far worse than him. Jack is an old man who has never impressed anyone with anything.

>>19389537
Why won't he just go to therapy

>>19389537
He got his curled up gimp hand. A symbol of how god hates him and is amused at his suffering.
Can't you just picture this fucker sitting at applebees and being amazed at the food?

>>19386894
I agree but have you seen his brother's solo content? It's literally about him walking around barefoot, eating whatever random shit he finds on other people's property, which he calls "foraging". There's also many videos of him playing music alone with a bunch of expensive equipment. Most of his videos have 20-100 views. It's pretty obvious that the Pro Home Cook brother was the one who actually knew how to cook, how to make engaging videos, and, like you said, how to abuse the algorithm.

Don't like 'em

Some are good, some are bad, most are middling and a lot are bad people. Same as most youtubers
