I tried a Brussels Sprouts Kitchen Gadget | A Game Changer for Roast Dinners?!

[@ladycake1515]

I love the fact that you are out of focus in the beginning. It makes your videos feel real again :)

[@mrbarrylewis]

keeping it real haha

[@ladycake1515]

Well for me KZbin have always been about real people making "not perfect" films/videos about things they love. That's what have attracted me. Iv'e stopped watching creators that suddenly got a lot of attention and started to get really professional. They are so busy with perfection that they forget about the content. Relatable is important to me :) Sorry for the bad English, I'm from Sweden :)

[@jamesgrimwood1285]

Does reviewing a waving Queen statue count as keeping it surreal?

[@enhypen1354]

Susanne Karlsson 100th like

[@ahandsomefridge]

I just figured I must be drunk but then I sobered up

[@Ea-Nasir_Copper_Co]

Roasted Brussels sprouts are a year-round favourite here in the far provinces. Never boil them!

[@Psera]

Me Here I like to boil them just to soften them and then sauté.

[@betaich]

But I love boiled brussel sprouts, after you boil them just add a bit of butter and nutmeg and perfection.

[@kloweowen]

I'm so glad Barry is using a gadget I love - I always trim the base of a sprout and remove some of the core. This does it much tidier for me.

[@susanrobinson408]

I just love your videos....the gadget ones are the best! Love your little canine helpers.

[@bearheart2009]

Gadget testing vid --> clicks faster than the speed of sound. I dread to think what the brussel sprout trophy would be awarded for =o

[@iamdb1990]

Barry + Fun = good videos, you upload when you want, it just makes it all the more fun to watch when they're available

[@mrbarrylewis]

cheers

[@beefytime966]

My main man Barry is back, lads.

[@vermink65]

BeefyTime he never left.

[@ehurley29]

I literally saw this product for sale yesterday and said 'Barry should review this' 😁

[@jamesbradley4534]

Keep up the great work Barry! Your videos help me to relax after stressful GCSE mocks THANKYOU so much !

[@mrbarrylewis]

good luck with the exams

[@matthewwilson9749]

Thank you for mentioning disabilities. People don’t often think that it’s useful as they don’t need it themselves, but those of us who need them, find them useful.

[@rebeccah3091]

Matthew Wilson these tools and prepared foods no one ever thinks about how important they are for some people and or how we wouldn't be able to live a normal life on our own without them .I really respect his respect .

[@matthewwilson9749]

Rebecca Hanley Yes, thank you, very true.

[@lottatroublemaker6130]

Matthew Wilson I agree, except for this, it is easier to cut the butt off it than use this, it takes a bit of effort. i dropped using mine. May use it if I want single leaves of sprouts or if I want to steam them (but after realizing how yummy they are fried, not sure I will ever steam again)... It is better than using a pointy knife to get in there with painful joints or something like that, that is for sure!

[@clarehughes1543]

Matthew Wilson 👍🏼

[@amysmosquito]

this one may be easier for people who have difficulty gripping a knife handle, or with a tremor in their hands... no loose wobbly knives, and cant hurt anybody if you drop it

[@DystopianOverture]

I loved the barn no lie, but I never thought I’d ever be happy to see out of focus Barry in his kitchen again!

[@pwelbourn]

Haha old Barry's back; out of focus on first shot. I'm giving it a thumbs up just for that alone.

[@BarbaraReynolds_3336]

Welcome back Barry, Missed your quirky vids. Love them so much! Whether you do your vids at home or from the barn, which you have retired from, they're all good. Keep up the good work and look forward to seeing many more mate. Blessings

[@mrbarrylewis]

thankyou Barbara

[@HighTen_Melanie]

Barry doing what he does best! #KeepItReal2018

[@blue33fp]

I love brussel sprouts. I sauté them with bacon and onion. Before we got married my wife hated them, and said that growing up she got in trouble for not eating them more than for any other reason. Since having them the way I make them, she now loves them too. Keep up the great work. We really enjoy your videos.

[@stephanieaubin]

I love this Barry. The fact that you are out of focus makes it that much better! Continue being you! That is what this channel is all about!

[@RERTOxCRAFT]

About the barn do what you want you dont have to change yourself to impress us if people dont like you for who you are thats there problem I messed myself about so much to impress other people I always think Im doing somthing wrong because of other people its your happyness your my favorite youtuber cause unlike most the channels on youtube you never do click bait but occassionally we get caught up in trying to impress others because we care and we want other to feel happy we want to provide everything we can we want to be in control and fix eerything but we cant its impossible I only found out when it was nearly to late I nearly commited suicde becasue I wanted to be like everyone else I wanted to compare myself to others but I stopped that one day I dropped out of uni even though I was garenteed a super fantasic wages and working with a millionaire interior design didnt make me happy i was only doing for the money cause I thought it would buy friends and happyness and make people like me but instead it took me to suicide like I was saying so I dropped out of uni I lost my independance was on the dole depressed no sign of a fututre its took 7 years!!!! I finally found somthing thats made me happy I said NO im not gonna be the 84% that hate there job Im going to be the 16% that love there job Im going to be an outdoor education instructor because I love being outdoors it help with mental health also without phones its so nice just to comunicate face to face and I want to teach kids they dont need phones or to follow everyone else to be happy :) barry your channels so amazing and inspireing your the guy thats helped stop me from taking my own life with your amazing elvis egg and mini kitchen skills barshens and also another youtuber nic hills :) sorry for my spelling at 21 I dont give two hoots :p

[@mrbarrylewis]

Hey thanks so much for the kind words and good for you for getting through such a tough patch

[@Gaz69erwilson]

candyflosscrown well done if only there were more people out there with the same thought process as you!

[@laurahussain1872]

Therapy session right there that :) seriously though don't let people, who are irrelevant to your life make you feel any kind of negative way. Good luck with your future career

[@martamch84]

I have to say....🤔 I really liked the combined reviews in long videos....but this format is awesome too! Great work Mr. B! 😏😋👍🏻

[@tendersheep667]

martamch84 I prefer the longer Vids too. Yet, I'll take what we get. Lol

[@merlinswolf1]

Welcome Home. Glad your back at your house. Feels extra special and back to one on one.

[@erikas8130]

I really love how you'd always add a disclaimer on how the gadgets could be of help to other people! Here's to a great year to you and your Family!! Cheers! 🎉

[@charlottestevens9352]

I need this I have a disability that makes using knifes hard (also dangerous) so these gadget that help with chopping helps me alot

[@nicooh131]

I'm so sad that there are so many people that are against change and evolution... So sad that people are restraining so much creativity from one of the most talented youtuber I've ever seen. Nvm, I'll keep supporting you Barry and I whish all the best for you!

[@mixiepalms8338]

focus is shot! welcome back lol

[@mrbarrylewis]

haha yeah oops!

[@jamesgrimwood1285]

The best way to deal with sprouts is to leave them in the supermarket where they belong.

[@berngirl5624]

Haha. I love them. One of my kids calls them "gag balls".

[@tammypurtee8770]

I have hands that hurt often and I think this corer would cause a lot of pain from using it. I'd just take a sharp paring knife and core the spout with a diagonal cut the same way you'd take the stem off a strawberry. Much quicker and much less pain. Thanks for testing these gadgets. You save us tons of money.

[@thereaderbug398]

Brussels sprouts are probably my favorite vegetable. I love them so much! This seems like more trouble than what it's worth though.

[@VintageTat]

Are you going to do more of the vids with multiple gadgets in ? Love those

[@mrbarrylewis]

every now and then

[@VintageTat]

Awesome :) keep up the good work

[@MsKestrela]

Aw yeah...the Barry's back! Never cave to the pressures of corporate worlds. Real, honest, authentic. Wins every time!

[@lala7701]

I missed you so dearly, Barry! The kitchen, the gadgets, the whole 9 yards... It's super wintery and rainy right now in Israel and watching your video while sipping a cup of tea is awesome!

[@dakiloth]

This is the right thing to do. More Barry more gadgets.

[@britishcook5468]

How to butcher sprouts!.... Kidding aside I think this may reduce the bitterness for some people and may be ideal for preparing them for kids.

[@Souixno]

Hey Barry, I live in Tennessee, USA and love Brussels Sprouts. I roast them then use a sauce of butter and garlic. Serve with a sprinkling of parmesan cheese. YUM 💜

[@smurfjegeren9739]

Only a few minutes in, and it already feels like the best Barry in a moderatly long time

[@astrozombie4459]

Happy your back to the kitchen looks better and seems your more comfortable and thanks for the videos some of your gadgets have helped me with my work thanks again

[@mrbarrylewis]

Cheers

[@daniellevaughan9043]

So happy you're back! You look well and refreshed.

[@katewestley2795]

MISSED YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH! Seeing a video like this makes me realise how much I loved the old Barry (though I loved the barn too, whatever you want to do and whichever direction you want to go, next week, next year, etc, it doesn't matter)

[@Savannah_Simpson]

Hope you arent stressing too much about the barn situation. Ill watch your video's wherever you film. Its your fun and happy personality that keeps me watching (and the Pugs).

[@lenah7093]

A very nice Barry original, I like that but why would I want to core brussel sprouts? I just cut of the bottom if it's really dry and remove the outer leaves if needed.. Keep up the good work and have fun with it (a lot of people sadly don't know they have this talent anymore so keep showing what it can be like pleae!) Have a great day!

[@joshsamuelson1793]

Sprouts are amazing. I love them warmed up then covered in butter and salt.

[@AndrewSmart32]

exactly the thing i wanted TKOR to do, keep his videos real and 'homemade'. Although you probably know factory made food can be better, There's just something better with something home made. Well done barry, keep the effort up!

[@nickarmitt4722]

Will always love your work, Barry. I discovered you through Barshens and now I love you as much as Stuart.

[@rayskitten78]

GLAD YOU WENT BACK TO YOUR ROOTS MISS THE BARRY'S THAT WAS MY SUNDAY

[@mrbarrylewis]

thanks we have started the Barry's back but it will be on here

[@studywivkiera5912]

sarah plunkett I knowww

[@rayskitten78]

TYX

[@brir2333]

Baking them with some garlic, a bit of olive oil and salt and pepper makes them taste amazing 👌🏻 personally I find it way better than boiling them. They’re nice and tender but the outsides get a a little charred and give it a nice crunch and delicious smoky flavor 😋

[@littlemama19]

I have missed these Barry! Glad to see ya again!! I will be buying those no cut gloves you featured a while back. I had to do my own search on Amazon because your link was for UK only. :-)

[@mrbarrylewis]

nice one

[@littlemama19]

Is it weird I started grinning when I saw Barry responded?! :-)

[@Hope161080]

Belinda Clem Maybe just a teeny bit, Belinda 😉😉

[@littlemama19]

😁😂😎

[@lottatroublemaker6130]

Since I discovered fried brussel sprouts, I have become a huge lover. It is amazing how that little cabbage transforms into a delicassy when you pan fry and caramelize it (let it become brown!). It gets this fantastic, nutty flavor! Needs no seasoning, just a little bit salt and if you want, a tiny amount of maple syrup to finish it off. I love mine with strips of onion and finished off with spinach (to make it even more healthy) and (in my case, vegan-) bacon! Give me a plate of that, and I am in heaven! My comfort food #1! I wouldn't have believed it, had someone told me 10 years ago... ☺️ Anyways, I of course ordered one of these, but I have found it to be too much work. i just cut off a little and for frying I either cut each in 2 or 4, depending on size and time/patience... 😊

[@freakklomp]

love to watch your gadget testing , even though i cant stand sprouts myself .

[@Ray-td4tq]

I love brussel sprouts. When I was young (5 or 6) my mom would fry some in in a pan with oil, salt and pepper and just give me a big bowl, same with cabbage. It was so good.

[@annettefournier9655]

Work it on out, twist and sprout. Good old Barry is back! Yay!!🤗🤗🤗

[@nitaf71]

Brussels sprouts are my favorite vegetables. I love then cut in hafe, with salt, pepper, paprika, oregano, and roast them in the oven. So good

[@misskarla1377]

Thank you for acknowledging people with disabilities in your Gadget Testing Video. Due to injuries in a fire, four fingers on one hand were amputated 1/2 way, and I have extremely limited movement with both hands. Fun aside, I do take your trials seriously, and have made several purchases I probably never would have considered. Keep up the good work.

[@unclegrizzlyscountrycorner2400]

Welcome Back Barry!!!!!! I was just talking to the wife yesterday and telling her I was missing your gadget videos. As for this gadget making a mess, as referred to in the review, if you properly trim and clean your sprouts of under developed or nasty yellow leaves as sometimes happens with them you will have a mess. Very good gadget and review keep up the good work.

[@popcorns6472]

You DEFINITELY need to get Ashens in on some of the gadget reviews! You and Stu are such a hilarious duo.

[@aquarhythm2999]

Awesome video Barry, great to see you double the awesomeness per serving of of vegetables too!

[@isabellecann2234]

‘Hand wash recommended’ emm I’m pretty sure that means hand wash it and don’t be in the dishwasher. But I’ll make sure to wash my hands aswell

[@EHFAR87]

I caught that as well 🤣

[@dawnmcfarlane4561]

Hahaha yes!

[@berngirl5624]

It was a joke.

[@JasonHalversonjaydog]

glad to see your back, i do miss the videos with multiple gadgets but at least we'll get them more often this way

[@brenbarnes9724]

you seem relaxed and back to your old self! I'm glad ❤

[@corinadenijs]

So happy you're back in business! Love the video. 👍👍😉

[@AlottaBoulchit]

Whoa! People core Brussel Sprouts? 😲 My family just cooked them as they came. 😂 I was the only one who'd cut out the harder cores from my cooked sprouts and felt like I was wasting food. My mind is BLOWN. 😂 I like how the gadget makes the sprouts into rose-like shapes! You could do a veggie flower basket with them!

[@stephl8304]

Aww your 2 adorable pugs snuggling together in the basket. So cute 😍❤

[@Johnnyafc]

Great to see you back looking forward to what you bring 👍🏻

[@CaraBelz]

Starting at 6:31 every time you plunked the sprouts into the water Amy and Boston in the background perked up a little. Watch, it’s cute!

[@viiixel]

Really happy to see you back!

[@sehpianonah]

Maybe it's a nice feature to think of alternative uses for every "gadet of the week" - for fun of course but also because to "prevent" having a gadet for every task in the kitchen...

[@mistwalkerdk2503]

I love love love your gadget videos, and it’s great to see you having fun with it, we missed you

[@Laura_Darkspear]

I’m not sure how but my boyfriend cooks brussel sprouts in a way that makes them actually taste good... maybe it’s the garlic and butter lol I should get this gadget for him! Glad you’re back Barry! :)

[@IM_Morethan]

So glad you're back and I love your gadget videos.❤

[@BonnyL]

loved the pugs in the background when you were cooking the sprouts ... just chillin'

[@lottatroublemaker6130]

"Hand wash recommended". "Always wash your hands, guys!" 😂

[@MilkBottleTops]

Your videos make me happy no matter the style, but it was nice and nostalgic to see this style again :3 keep up the hard work, it’s much appreciated 💞

[@angelicafowl]

To be honest, chopping off the extra stumpy bit with a knife (also helps peel off any blemished outer leaves), cutting them in half and steaming produces best results in my experience. They become tender without getting all watery. Also sprinkle with turmeric before steaming, adds a bit of flavor and helps suppress the "leafy green" stench :)

[@Sweetnlow19811]

Sprouts are delicious roasted with baby Carrots. Coat in olive oil, kosher salt and chopped garlic. I made this yesterday.

[@nickcossey121]

Brilliant video mate happy to have you back

[@auntlynnie]

If you pull apart the mini cabbages into leaves, then toss them in some oil and salt, then roast until they're browned... amazing. Even my boyfriend likes them that way, and he hates sprouts.

[@ParadoxicalIntention]

One of my favorite ways to cook sprouts, incidentally, is to roast them in the oven with walnuts with a little drizzle of oil and maple syrup. The syrup helps to cut the bitterness of the sprouts that many people don't like. I also sometimes cook them with bacon and butter in a pan, and have heard you can also make coleslaw out of it, since it is related to the cabbage (but I haven't tried this myself). Also, hi, I'm from the US and I love sprouts. :D

[@Samdaman-tt6tq]

I love your videos, they make mine and everyone’s day! : ) We always look forward to them!

[@teacupjojo7437]

So good to see you back and looking happy again! I love how you feel the need to clarify that you're not drunk 😂 Ah man, you rock!

[@shirleycastle5170]

I've gotta look for one of those i love Brussel sprouts even cold ones.

[@Jackalblade9]

Hey Barry, love the video! The gadget looks...vaguely useful? But I actually like the cores. We do eat brussel sprouts in the US too, they're pretty common around Thanksgiving in particular, but they're never hard to find in stores where I live.

[@charlockprime]

Welcome back old school Barry. Your spirits already seem up. Great gadget video, as always.

[@psychman555]

Way to go Barry. Welcome back, sir! Loved the old format, looking forward to the new :-)

[@katporter-dale5897]

I’m watching this at 5.30am... not well and these gadget vids you do always cheer me up!:)

[@rainyxnightshade]

I would have preferred the longer videos of testing many gadgets myself. But I do have to say this format is better than the barn videos were so i suppose it balances out.

[@tanyabroyer4499]

Yay!! so glad to have you back Barry!!

[@simonhunt1912]

It's nice to see you back love your videos whatever you do

[@alexmatthew4567]

Barry has got his cooking mojo back!! Great to see you back Barry!! P.s also happy birthday Chloe!!

[@chrisanders713]

Yes! Barry is back!!! Keep it real! Keep it real!! Keep it real!!!

[@user-pj5me6qg5w]

Hallelujah! Finally got time to catch up a bit on your videos. Mr. Barry is back!

[@BigIronAlba]

Subbed for a long time watched some of the barn videos found them to require to much attention to watch I preferred the old format and will start watching again, change is always welcome just make sure it fits your style !

[@katporter-dale5897]

So, we bought a twist and sprout. Saves us so much time and effort. 🙌🙌🙌

[@lifewithimperfections]

I’ve loved all your videos...in the barn and also at home.

[@richardcastro-parker3704]

Yes😀 B to the A to the double R Y! What ever you do I'll be there witching. I think it's time to get on that patreon and donate to my fave you tubers.

[@lamuyy]

Keep going Barry! Really enjoy your videos!

[@MysticJhn]

For non-food gadgets, you should get an otamatone. You and your kids would love it. It's basically this big music note shaped thing with a face, and when you squeeze it, the mouth opens and it plays a note that you can then adjust along the shaft to change to tone. Makes for an interesting musical instrument. Look it up here on KZbin to see people playing it. Comes in three sizes, the normal size, one fit for a key chain, and one really big one, plus a variety of colors. It would be the perfect toy/gadget/musical instrument for you and your girls to play and "test" on video. I know your girls love music and cute things, so you'd better have one for each of them. :D

[@hkzi1321]

Here from Michigan USA!! It would be a pain in the ass to pack a bag to do a video!! Love you and look forward to seeing more of you and your family ☺

[@sakilamajumder6038]

I missed you Barry, please do not take long breaks no more lool.

[@johncannistraro7599]

I laughed way to hard at the Kris Kross joke! Thank you for these amazing videos

[@slof2595]

Hey Barry. is this going to be every Monday? And also you should get this mug I got for my birthday last year and it’s a Star Wars heat changing mug with the light sabers that appear when exposed to heat. I think it’s really cool anyway

[@ownsacat]

i like sprouts. I think this is a good tool. I might have to check it out.

[@Sammyrox1989]

Hey Barry its 1 31am here in Queensland Australia so excited to see your vlog pop up clicked pretty fast love watching your vlogs thanks

[@mrbarrylewis]

thanks a bunch

[@SuperMaggot250893]

My boyfriend and I are buying our first house together (we get the keys next Wednesday!!). We have never had our own kitchen before, so i am so excited to fill it full of random kitchen gadgets!
