Josh should do an episode where he leaves the instructions on how to make something and his friends have to cook it while he picks up the food. It would actually give a good gauge on how fast an "average" home cook could make meals against the clock.

It brings a tear to my eye watching Ulises’ character development. I can’t wait to see what happens next

[@Zalarys]

Funny thing is: in Mexico basically any food is turned into a taco (if you are a fan of tortillas, that is) because you can eat with tortillas if you want to. When he said breakfast taco, I was like 'what? any taco can be a breakfast taco' (I was thinking pastor, bistec, etc.). But when he put the egg on it... I realized... That's just breakfast. When eating eggs for breakfast, most people heat up two or three tortillas and make tacos with their eggs. (His tacos look delicious, by the way. Buy yeah, I had a moment of enlightenment here)

[@ricardogf5294]

We do eat tacos for breakfast tho… tacos de canasta (potato, chorizo, chicharron prensado, refried beans, etc…), tacos de cochinita, carnitas, milanesa (breaded chicken, pork or beef), barbacoa, birria (hangover cure), tacos de guiso (basically anything inside a tortilla), and the list goes on and on…

To be honest, the restaurant said 5-10 minutes and you made it in 26 minutes. Of course you can make it faster if you live far away and the car ride takes 90% of the time lol.

[@khaledm.1476]

That's the point of the series, it's that usually you have to deal with delivery or traffic to get food when you can just eat at home. Personally I just ordered 2 large pizzas that would take atleast 30minutes to arrive instead of bothering to cook

[@rclmwing]

@@khaledm.1476 I mean, the taco chain he ordered from has a location at LEAST 10 minutes closer to his house. Maybe he ordered from the one so far away because he needed that extra travel time.

[@shakflak3651]

by 5-10 minutes it means the food is ready in that time buddy, the guy on the other end doesnt know where their studio is. you guys also didnt account for the time it takes to get back from the resturant to the studio

@@khaledm.1476 The dude´s studio is clearly way too far away. People mostly order from places close enough to home

[@LshowKnows]

@@shakflak3651 Maybe choose something closer to the studio? Or else what´s the point of this video?

[@GRNBaseball10]

I love the faster concept, but I kinda figure this is less practical than prepping food for a couple of days. Would you mind making a few videos going over some of the prep work you can do ahead of time to make things more quickly? For example, what did the restaurant do so that they could make tacos in 5-10 minutes? As a working parent, I have time over the weekend to cut vegetables and marinate meat, but not necessarily during the week.

[@EgoPen]

@ Vibe Check ❌

[@arthaal]

For this video specifically I'd say you could get the sauce done from before to be one step ahead by the time you want to make the tacos. Maybe get the meat ready from the night before and so on, but in general this specific recipe is pretty possible to get done quick. For more general recipes, as you said, the meat marinate and maybe cut veggies (but not so long before that they get dried up) as long as they don't go in lime juice that could oxidize or get soggy are a good step. Making things like broth and stock during the weekend, that you can use as a base for a lot of things, or having a good batch of white rice for at least few days of the week can help a lot, and definitely make your own pickled veggies and stuff to have something tasty to just put on anything you make to add an extra flavour to it.

I appreciate that he acknowledges the cheap take out taco had its greasy place in our hearts. Clearly the rare steak will always win, but does anyone just have these nice cuts of meat laying around? I have a full garden that produces more than I can consume, but still don’t have all these ingredients (tomatillos aren’t interested growing and peppers are slowly coming in, but not all the fresh salsa worthy). We need a “but faster” with a standard simple pantry. It’s never faster if I need to defrost or go shopping 🤷‍♀️

[@182punkbunny]

Right bro every time my wife says she want to go out and eat tacos I’m like “why?

I literally can walk from my house in 10 minutes and get two tacos that are pretty good and cheap. I think this just depends on how far you live from a restaurant.

[@MNSH]

but lets think for an average person, you could have a restaurant in the next block or you can have it at the different side of city, so an average person it is atleast 2-5km which is 10-25mins one way in normal traffic, so it still would be a valid series

[@franekkkkk]

[@rockyroadmagic4152]

Well then you won’t have to next time because you already have them. If you make a recipe regularly you’re gonna buy the ingredients every time you go shopping so you’re not gonna run out.

[@joope125]

if you have eggs, flour, and butter, you can make some badass tacos with nothing else in your pantry. If you have any leftovers like steak or chicken you can throw those in there too, tacos will find a way.

plan it out first. it's like when people complain about an overnight recipe, which doesn't make any sense to me at all. if you plan what you're going to eat during the week, you're not doing any "waiting" also you should never grocery shop when you're hungry, that's an easy way to overspend

[@m.e.p.7223]

this entire series is for entertainment value and not actually teaching you anything. even if you had all the ingredients and had a staff of people cleaning up after you, an organized, spacious kitchen makes a world of difference in cook time and it's something a majority of busy americans do not have. there's too many factors that this series just doesn't take into account and while i like watching it, it's far from accurate. not to mention ulysses is clearly driving as slow as possible and not even going to the closest shop available to get the food, they definitely exaggerate everything for views and so josh can claim w after w.
