Hey my brother. Algorithim stopped showing me your stuff but i had this video on my playlist. Always good to see a fellow spicehead building layers of complexity and flavour

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Thanks for swinging back by! I just posted another hot sauce video if you’re looking for something new on the pepper side.

[@RolloTonéBrownTown]

@@outdoorindoortexan was gonna watch the pickle hot sauce one last night. Unfortunately I use this account for my family friendly content so I am never watching stuff on this one while I'm alone. To this end, my mom said it sounded too weird and she didn't want to watch. Since the whole point of our YT viewing is to promote family time, I didn't want to make anyone else to watch something only I wanted. To this end, I will watch on my personal profile!

[@outdoorindoortexan]

@BigboiiTone I love the family KZbin idea!

[@nathanwahl9224]

Very nice, thanks! Oh, and some sage advice I got many decades ago: No recipe has ever read "grey the meat" or "tan the meat", it's always BROWN the meat!!! Brown=flavor!

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Amen. Thanks for watching, Nathan!

[@BarefootG]

Can’t wait to try these! Great vid

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Yeah buddy! Let me know what you think when you try them and thanks for watching!

[@dianebrannon7862]

Thank you for this recipe. I will try it!

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Sure thing, Diane! I hope y’all love it and thanks for watching!

[@adk6071]

I am definitely doing this over the weekend. Thanks!

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Heck yeah! Let me know how they turn out.

[@gregdevlin905]

I made them over the weekend. I put some hatch chiles I had in the freezer in them. They came out great. Thank you!

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Hatch chiles sounds like a perfect addition! Thanks for leaving the comment, Greg, and I’m happy you liked them! Tell your friends lol

[@gregdevlin905]

@@outdoorindoortexan I never thought to use premade dough to make empanadas. It is a huge time saver from making dough from scratch. I have told everyone who asked. 👍

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Exactly! I think I made empanadas one time from scratch and never got around to trying it again since making the dough was such a process. I’ve made these empanadas for friends and family multiple times now though, thanks to the pre-made dough hack. It’s also a great recipe to play around with, like adding hatch chiles! Thanks again for the feedback and spreading the word!

[@gregdevlin905]

@@outdoorindoortexan using the premade turns it from a special occasion item to an anytime dish.

[@warddanger]

tried this, incredible!

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Good to hear, Ward! It's always a popular one in our house! My wife asked for a second round after filming the first batch.

[@ashleymyers5535]

Looks amazing!!!

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Thanks so much!

[@pastapaul150]

Looks awesome. What size circles are those empanada dough? You must have some big water glasses

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Haha good point. I’d say they’re more small bowl sized looking back. Six inch diameter roughly? I’d just eyeball it and cut out the circle the works for you. You can make huge ones or tiny ones. Thanks for watching!

[@RecipesForLittlies]

Love empanadas but I was too scared to try it at home. Never thought of using puff pastry to do this - thanks for the easy trick!

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Happy to help! It’s so easy with puff pastry. Let me know if you end up giving it a shot!

[@t-reyh5937]

This is something I'm gonna have to try. Kinda running out of ideas for my venison burger. Thanks

[@outdoorindoortexan]

We use this recipe constantly. It’s a great way to change things up with the same old same old. Lots of different ways to tweak it too. Make the burger meat seasoned the way you usually like it and just pop it into the dough. They’re great!

[@dkttu]

I need about 2 dozen of these STAT!

[@outdoorindoortexan]

On it!

[@johnstone9396]

needs some veggies and a slight broth paste, they look good but dry, those would be about 2 beers a piece to wash down.

[@outdoorindoortexan]

Sounds like a good tweak to me, John! They weren’t dry but definitely add whatever you think would make it better for you! I’m all about people taking my recipes as inspiration and exploring options from there. Thanks for watching!

Excellent point and more than welcome to deep fry. Thanks for watching, Vinnie!
