BBQ FEAST at Michael Symon's Mabel's BBQ at Palms Las Vegas

[@dmotta2811]

The presentation is very nice. All of the food looked great, but the burger looked so good to me because of all the sesame seeds on the bun. I love sesame seed buns.

[@VegaswithShin]

The burger was classically delicious! The sesame seed bun was very good. Thanks D!

[@youdecide2696]

I have tried Binion's bbq and Ellis Island bbq my last few trips but will make Mabel's a visit next time. Great descriptive narration and filming, nice work Shin!!

[@VegaswithShin]

I actually have not tried Binions BBQ yet. I'll have to check that out sometime. I do think Mabels is worth trying. Some of the most tender and juicy meats I've had in a while. Thanks for watching!

[@vegasvan2000]

Another great review!

[@VegaswithShin]

Thank you Deb!

Great review on Mabels Shin! Definitely going there in April, truly appreciate your style of review, love the honesty!

Thank you! Happy my style is resonating with you. I hope you have a great trip! April is a perfect time to visit.

[@joshstone4933]

Another great one Shin keep them coming! I always loved Michael Symon never tasted his food but when I used to watch all those iron chef type shows he always beat everyone including Flay and others

[@VegaswithShin]

Yes! Chef Symon was a powerhouse on food tv and this was, to my knowledge, my first time trying one of his restaurants as well and my friends and I really liked the food. Thanks for watching!

[@jadelynn1703]

I want to see you go to Texas to try their meats! You looked so happy with the brisket.

Been there twice and enjoyed my meal both times. The ribs are tender and fall off the bone. I would have tried the cornbread if I was you because it's perfect. Great atmosphere and staff

[@VegaswithShin]

Thanks for the tip Laurence! This is definitely not my only visit there and I will be returning so I'll give the corn bread a try. Thanks for watching!

I am always happy to see shell pasta.

[@VegaswithShin]

It's such a good pasta! The little pockets of sauce are little treasures waiting for you. Love it!

[@franman128]

We’ve been there. Food was ok but the service was horrible. Our server took forever and they weren’t very busy. An elderly lady next to us didn’t have any sauces at her table and no one would come by, so we shared our sauces with her.

[@VegaswithShin]

Oh wow, I'm sorry to hear you had that experience. I get free meals at the Palms every two weeks from my gambling comps there and I frequent Mabel's often and I haven't had bad service so far. Maybe it was an off day for them. Thanks for watching!

Every thing looks fabulous. Thanks for the review.

[@VegaswithShin]

My friends and I really enjoyed our dinner. It was all very tasty. Thanks for watching!

[@edharris8761]

I was with you until the "soy sauce umami" lol. Gotta say, it looked pretty good aside from the pulled pork! Pulled pork is never something I'd order because you can't let it sit. No matter what, it's always dry. I love a sauce selection at a bbq joint. If they don't have one, I'd order a drink and leave. Keep them coming my man! You do good work!

[@VegaswithShin]

We're the same on the pulled pork, it's usually something I skip on because I often find it dry as well but we ordered as a group. I gotta admit, it was a lot more moist than I was expecting. Maybe we got a very fresh batch. I was very happy with the sauce choices as well. The KC and vinegar mustard sauce were my favorites. Thanks for watching Ed!

[@lorifreeman1746]

Everything looks good but I'd be just happy with the nachos ❤

[@VegaswithShin]

Yes! The brisket nachos are really great! I've gone back for it since making this video :) Thanks for watching!

Nice review Shin, the food looked delicious. I'd be into the nachos, ribs, the burger & definitely the apple cobbler for dessert. Thanks for the great insight into Mabel's BBQ restaurant. Nice job!

Never been to Palms, can you walk there from the strip

[@derrick8224]

Yes. About 20 minute walk

[@VegaswithShin]

Yes, about 20 minutes if you're in the middle of the strip.

[@YouUsAndAI]

Also, those nachos look like I can come back every day...YUM!!

[@VegaswithShin]

The nachos I'd go back for any day seriously. At $17, it's perfect for a quick snack with a friend or even a full meal honestly.

@Elliot Green I actually loved it and I've been back once since making this video to have the brisket nachos with a friend 😀

[@imboredDB]

Hi, love you're videos! I have two crazy 🤪 questions. First do you always smile off 📷 camera as much as on 📷 camera? Second your head bobbles when you like the food, why is that? Keep em comin!

[@VegaswithShin]

I'm a pretty glass half full kind of guy so I'm smiling pretty often. The nodding is something that just occurs naturally when I'm anticipating a certain flavor profile and then I mentally note my opinion to describe the food. Thanks for watching!

Was the hot BBQ sauce any good? Great video, looked delish!

[@VegaswithShin]

It wasn't bad but definitely my least favorite sauce of the 4. I'd rank them KC, mustard, green chile, then the spicy. It needed more heat honestly. Thanks for watching!

[@ronaldo86]

Great video! What's your monthly budget for your food tasting :)

[@VegaswithShin]

I wouldn't really say I have any budget in mind. If a restaurant interests me, I'll go to review it. But as it stands, outside of a month I do a steakhouse or very high end upscale establishment, I'd say I spend roughly $350-$400 a month on videos. Thankfully, KZbin income on its own covers a fair amount of that now so I probably only spend about $100-$150 of my own money a month nowadays. Thanks for watching!

hi Shin!

[@VegaswithShin]

Hi Gail!

[@gailsfoodandstuff]

6:31 - so far what i noticed is that all the meats are juicy, not dried out, with dry “crust” edges. the hubby and i like moist and tender, not leather. so, its looking good so far. ok, back to the video. :-)

[@VegaswithShin]

Yes! The meats were incredibly juicy, even the pulled pork which I usually find to be pretty dry was moist. They did a great job at Mabels. Thanks for watching!

$16 for 6 wings YIKES

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

Wings have gottten crazy expensive here in my small town of western NC in the smokies. They are about 1.25-1.50 ea. so, I guess that hung vegas and more expensive… I think it’s rediculous how expensive they are! And most places charge extra for celery or sont have any. The wind times have changed in america. Don’t know what’s going on there.

[@VegaswithShin]

Right? I mean, I would even accept 8 wings to make it $2 a wing for that Vegas upcharge but 6 was a tough pill to swallow. I'd skip on that for sure next time. Thanks for watching!

[@keithss67]

Those wings might have tasted good, but the presentation was pathetic! If they aren’t going to give you a decent amount of wings, the least they can do is dress it up with some lettuce and carrots and celery

[@VegaswithShin]

Great point! Literally tossed the wings on the tray and that was it. I'd actually even tell them to just use a smaller tray or plate. All the empty space on the tray just led to more of that "not worth it" feeling. Thanks for watching Keith

[@keithss67]

@@VegaswithShin they should just dress it up a bit. Make it look nice. They could even charge an extra 2 bucks, and I doubt anyone would complain. As it looks now, it’s an insult to their customers
