[@timnone2924]

Ben left to pursue other things, and Brent and his team opened a few new spots so hes probably been too busy for stuff like this lately

[@anthonysedicino9922]

We need more Prime Time.

[@NolaBlake504]

[@marionkilian7188]

John Ratliff if your knowledge is astounding, you’re incredibly talented.

[@melaniedarmawan5478]

2:40 HE JUST PUT THE BURGERS IN WHILE THE FIRE IS FLAMING omg

[@heatherjohnson2511]

I use eye of round for beef jerky, it works great.

[@gchomuk]

Holy crap. This is one of the best damned food videos I've watched. I'm not familiar with the channel, but this is killer content. What a great cast of characters and foods. Drooling for 90 minutes!

[@ryangienapp470]

Bring them back!

[@skintaro4144]

[@patrickmaguire9267]

BRING BACK PRIME TIME!!!

[@Avora227]

Man I miss these guys.

[@MGD313]

Much like The Golden Girls, getting a clip show of Ben and Brent is better than no episode at all.

[@raemongill19]

Back back back back back back back get them back.

[@GojosBackHand]

Been a while since i seen a video from them

[@k.a.c.b.a.a.m.]

Good to see Ben and Brent back!

[@djarnelllim7299]

Man I miss this duo

[@TMJ21]

Alternatively, could you have sous vide a bain marie with a metal container with the cut of meat inside? Wondering if that would work. More experiments and content for you guys to play with 😂

[@bobboy5508]

I like this guy. I’m a cheese, lettuce and ketchup guy. Less is more on a burger. But I could do everyday just a cheeseburger. Nothing else.

[@oldgravely]

Have you tryed Jicarding the eye of round?

[@timsmith7346]

Primetime! Primetime! C'mon Eater, get Ben and Brent back on again!

[@joshmore7175]

Is this a sign that we're bringing this back at some point?

[@GoodEatsWithShad]

Where to buy those cast irons??

[@marionkilian7188]

An artist who critiques his work, there may have been some air gaps , his words that’s my edit. I did not know how much work goes into his crafted deli meats, wow a master at work.

[@RataStuey]

33:07 ok this chef is cool

[@theblobfish9614]

The stock makes a tremendous difference if you want to reduce it to make a sauce. You can however help yourself out with some gelatin sheets so you can at least "fake" the nice velvety consistency of a demi glace style sauce

[@ekos7466]

Sadly only reruns, these two were the main reason I subscribed to the channel, they really just benched the Show without an explanation, I wish we could get some info

[@austincw4946]

Nothing better than a grilled cheese with soggy untoasted bread

[@anarchy030]

I miss Ben and Brent!!😢

[@saulgood6909]

I agree with the ribs. Nothing is worse when biting into a rib and getting the whole thing in your maw.

[@tunneltu]

Sheeo also eat feed. Depends on the farmer. But they grace a lot in lots of diffeent weather conditions

[@TheD510addict]

Might be the best Eater show.

[@JJBIRDIEGOLF]

The name of your smoker please? Thank you

Love these guys! 👨‍🍳🔪🥓🥩🍗🍖

[@stephenbell3882]

The meat hook needs to return

[@henryt9281]

Wow, I shouldn't be watching this while starving with no food being prepared at the moment ...

[@Alex-zi1nb]

ugh dang it, i wanted new content from my favorite meatmen!

[@Rockyall]

half these spots are closed at this point

[@philliphiggins3261]

Couple of these places are closed

[@zeezee4063]

[@nelsonbrooks]

For a moment I thought the beanpole, lost his hat. No luck, it was only in the thumbnail shot.

[@jerrymoua395]

This is an old video but still bad ass... anyone who gets trained by this guy goes to high end restaurant

[@iladiesnutzoyochin]

[@leroyhopkins2229]

Wonderbread!!!! The hell

[@Hanibul_Lecktor]

Midieval Torture Burger.... 😂

[@vallo105]

For those who don’t know, Ben (the taller guy) moved on from the Meat Hook for other opportunities, which is probably why the show ended

[@McHox]

damn i completely forgot about them, what happened?

[@ForAnkhee]

You need butter with cheese tho or some kinda grease lol

[@jdledsham]

Sous vide it first? reverse sear

[@nickisbad1]

[@joshrodriguez96]

weird seeing WD in almost an average Joe place. I’m used to fine dining WD
