Chinese BBQ Chef tries Texas BBQ for the First Time

[@CantoMando]

If you’re interested in seeing how Chinese BBQ is made, we filmed a video with Jack where he showed us the process from beginning to end! Y’all can check it out here : kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3qacnmpar-oa9Esi=ssRWMefjy4fytj_X

[@EpicvidsKetti08]

In Hong Kong the super traditional style is charcoal (one last restaurant left in HK) so there is a bit of crossover there

[@jimmydiggincats]

I thought I recognised Jack! Saw him on this Eater video a few years ago. What a legend! kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6TceYihitqqpZo

[@wei8280]

It's interesting that chinese business are so focused on cost cutting which can result in inferior quality. It's why chinese products are associated with poor quality, it's so ingrained that the chinese cook asks about that. Whereas american doesn't always think that. Then again it's also expected that when you buy chinese stuff to expect cheaper price whereas it's more accepted or tolerated to pay more for American products. Like the American BBQ can easily charge $25 or more a plate and ppl pay it. Whereas chinese BBQ charges $25 or more you might not. Lastly chinese are more about saving face, don't think he's being as honest whereas Darian was very honest with his chinese BBQ reviews willing to give lower scores. I can't imagine everything is 10, that chicken definitely isn't a 10 for the chinese cook given what he said.

[@jkfan2011]

This is so great. I’m Chinese and my father’s a retired chef. I started smoking briskets a few years ago and never crossed my mind to ask him to try as he always preferred Chinese food. He was over one afternoon and my wife reheated some smoked brisket for him. He tried it then froze. Picked up another slice and look at us “what is this??? It’s so good. What sort of meat is this? How did you do this???” He kept eating in disbelief

Always been a fan of the American culture(s) and always will be. Those people are the same who think US cuisine is equal to McDonald's, it's mostly a superficial thing out of envy, ignorance and the fact some feel "colonized"; it's also about politics and wars so they're just hating the governments, not the average citizen or the culture as a whole, as a matter of fact we grew up with American music and films, we imported several things that are now part of our everyday life, and to be honest we're not that different, some won't admit that though. Much love for the US from Europe (Italy)!

[@eddavanleemputten9232]

I’m a Belgian, and before I was 16 I’d already lived on 3 continents. One thing that was mentioned several times in this video is that bbq brings the world together. Good bbq is good bbq. As a teenager I got my first taste of Texas bbq and boy, was it good. In Belgium’s countryside, all they know is grilling and they call it bbq. And then there’s little old me, lovingly mixing my own dry rub and bbq-ing my meats overnight or getting up at the crack of dawn to make sure dinner is done and delicious by 6-8 pm. The hardest part is to get the correct cuts of meat. People here want their beef lean and mean. They breed their beef lean. So I need to rely on imported beef to get the proper marbling. That being said, I’m starting to get converts. Whether it’s US/Texas (ish) style bbq, Chinese crispy pork belly, bbq duck, or any other type of lovingly bbq’d meats. I’d love to see a collab between these two chefs, a true exchange of recipes and skills fusing together.

@@DipsSauce7388 I disagree, even if you never have Texas bbq there are other bbq style, you can gauge from there. Like the bbq chef, he didn't give all 10/10 for the Chinese bbq. It's just a cultural thing for old Chinese kan to be polite especially if the one cooking is in front of you

When he cut into that brisket point cut, it looked soooo fire. Got me salivating lol.

Paraphrasing the late Anthony Bourdain: get anyone together to break bread, we all have a lot more in common than differences. 😊
