What's your favorite way to eat Spam?

[@raynmaker]

miss these guys, hope we get to see more of them soon

[@chenf983able]

212 was correct

[@goudawgs]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who did a double take on that "Water boils at 220°F" line. Ben had it right at 212°F

[@petenamlook18]

These guys are clearly not scientists.

[@turuu214]

spam is nice but its way too salty man

[@Keycrazzy]

Who else thought this was a Matt stonie video

[@Phoenixz33]

I love the parts where it looks like Keanu is staring at the meat coming out of the grinder.

[@joshmore7175]

They should make Korean army stew out of their spam and homemade hot dogs

[@bkco]

Water boils at 212.

[@robvas]

Salt penetrates atoms?

[@szilardszabo9677]

"When salt penetrates an atom"

[@johntoves9015]

In some of the protein productions I've been in, we dissolve all the marination ingredients into a brine and then add that to the meat mixture. That helps the phosphates, salts, and sugars chemically bind up to the protein as well as blend into the mix. A portion of the water is most likely used for that. If you do a Mark II of this, break out a stick blender and add the phosphate to water first and wait till it's in solution, and then add the rest of the "dry" ingredients. Add that in with your second grind and you'll be about as close as the plant would be.

shouldve left well enough alone when he said 212 lol he had it right

[@Murmur1796]

"SPAM is SPAM, and everything else is something else." poetry.

[@maxp4573]

Once you've binged everything Brent and Ben have done ...you'll really start to miss them :D

[@TanukiSC]

Could watch you guys for hours on end. Endlessly entertaining and informative. And your food ALWAYS looks great!

[@siriqbal]

From Ben’s awesome T-shirt to Brent’s “the more you know” canning facts, this video is fantastic! You could do a whole series on pop culture meats! 😂

[@ShelbsylouVlog]

I freaking love Ben and Brent they make my all my favorite videos on this channel. More, more, more!!

[@MordecaiV]

small but important mistake about ph/acid and appropriate canning methods:
