So is there a reason you didn't use a blender for those onions in the sauce? Any storage life issues like that? Also, make beer battered cheese curds. Do it.

[@younoobroflmao]

@@Leatherface42O Quite a bit of salt in the seasoning. It would only be on the surface if it did get anything and get killed anyways in the cooking process.

[@chrissmith5963]

I've been making an almost exact copy of this recipe for about 15 years. Except in the rub instead of using chipotle, I add maple sugar,and I also add red pepper flakes. For the barbeque sauce,no chipotle,but add NH maple syrup,and diced McIntosh apples. You just have to add the apples after you strain the sauce,otherwise they lose their consistency,you dont want them cooked,just peel and core them first. Try it on pulled pork,you won't be disappointed. With the coleslaw on top it's a kaleidoscope of flavors,and textures on your tongue. Yummy for your tummy.

actual restaurant cooking sucks :/ long hours into the evening get home late on your feet most of the time little time for your family work weekends and the customers don't know you or care about you. cooking mostly servants work and has always been that way. unless you're going to be a Michelin star chef or own your own restaurant don't even bother, seriously. get a 9 to 5 if you want to grind out a living so much better, otherwise pursue your passion. let the excons, immigrants and dummies work restaurant kitchens. guy in the video is working for himself he's not making someone else rich. he's not a restaurant chef so why he inspires you I have no idea. if anything he'd inspire you to be a youtube chef lol !!

[@bresidentpoejiden8253]

@@u235u235u235 "he's not a restaurant chef" The celebrity chef’s cooking journey began in Sonoma County, California at 16 years old. He worked his way through many kitchens focusing on very local and seasonal styles of cooking. At 21 years old, Sonny decided to leave the world of cooking for a two-year intensive study of organic agriculture. Upon completing his studies, he returned to the busy pace of restaurant life working in the Netherlands at several fine dining restaurants. Sonny returned to the US in 2014 for a saucier position at the Viceroy Hotel in Snowmass Village. Since then, Sonny has thrived full-time in private cooking and catering in Aspen.

Another good thing to do with pulled pork when you're on your 5th day of BBQ sandwiches and are hankering for a change: Cubanos! Even if you don't have the right kind of bread for it, and you only have cheap lunchmeat ham, you can still get 80% of the way there, and it's still delicious even with just dumb old toasted wheat bread.

Word to the wise: I forgot the step of pouring liquid over it, and putting in a pot for resting, I just left it on the counter. The bark was hard as a rock.
