[@nostrus6500]

Not really a mcpie but what about 'fried beer' ......honest it's a real thing

[@Robb403]

I'm old. I cooked McD's pies back when they were actually good. Let me give you some hints. McD's pies were frozen when they were put in the fryer. In fact they had to be kept very cold. I think the freezer was around minus 10 f and that was critical to the timing. The raw pies were coated with a thin layer of sugar glaze that made them bubble up on the outside. Later, they started making baked pies which aren't nearly as good.

[@SandraWeierman]

They then added the cinnamon sugar once they were out of the frier later on when as you said not all that good. I don't buy them anymore.

[@jasonread7234]

BTW, that pie maker is for baked pies not deep fried.(That's why there are slots in the top.) 😂

[@Robb403]

@@jasonread7234 True. Patch the slots and then you can fry them.

[@JimHarrigan]

@@jasonread7234 I was thinking the same thing. I believe in the UK they still get the fried pies. At least they did when I was there in 2014

[@WuzzyShwoo]

@@JimHarrigan They were fried last time I had one, about a year ago.

[@DarkQueenHelba]

Oh!!! I had most rest of the set of these as a kid. There was a milkshake maker that was pudding based, the hamburger maker was rice cripes with vanilla wafer buns, and fries were bread. We never managed to find the Nuggets or Apple Pie maker. Honestly it was a lot of fun to play with and easy to refill the ingredients to make more. No ordering specialty stuff. A lot more fun and easy to get than an Easy Bake Oven.

[@jules3048]

So cool! I’ve never heard of this before.

[@RKlaw9000]

I had all but the pie and milkshake maker. The burger one was king, imho. The fries one sucked, but maybe Barry could come up with a fun way to use it. I also had a McDonald's Cookies maker (Remember when they had those??) which was easily the second best of the bunch. made with peanut butter, Graham crackers and Nestle Quik, if I remember correctly

[@landonsmith2154]

Was the milkshake machine always down? 😂 Sorry, saw the opportunity

[@jacobryanpaul2897]

I had the fry maker! I remember it had you put cinnamon and sugar on bread.

[@Bunker278]

I got one of those kits from a thrift shop for like 50 cents when I was a kid. I ended up using some home-canned cinnamon applesauce in place of pie filling to avoid pie blowouts. It worked pretty well, especially sprinkled with cinnamon sugar.

[@brockolee0815]

Fried a lot of those when i worked there. Those pies can pretty volatile, when they are just slightly cracked and you put them into the fryer, frozen btw. When those damaged ones starting to puff up they suddenly burst their filling into the hot oil. Got a few ouchies from them! And there was also a coating on them wich was quite starchy. Was probably starch and water, wich was the reason the pies get that blistered and bubbly outside layer.

[@garou1911]

This would be a great one to get Stuart involved with

[@Nirrrina]

Ive made fried appke pies really easily. I just use egg roll wrappers & pan fry in 2-3 inces of oil. I also use those flavored cream cheese. Wildberry on the inside & dusted with sugar is awesome. I also make savory ones with chive/green onion & ham. I've used refried beans & cheese, ham & swiss cheese with or without the green onion cream cheese. I don't cut holes in it though & i seal the edges with just water. Then make sure it's really well sealed so nothing leaks out. Theres nothing funner, ie scary, as having the cream cheese start seeping out. But it doesn't happen much & you can quickly scoop it out. I use a wire spoon thing & a metal spoon to help me flip them & then to scoop it out.

[@samhenwood5746]

Your face ,while using the McDonald’s apple pie maker , was fantastic 🤗Thanks Barry brilliant 🤩👍

[@collectingonthecheap56353]

Taking that to the limit with those ideas. The McDonald's oven is a convection oven set at 375°F. The Pizza Pie was designed to be baked as long as the fruit pies at 12 minutes.

[@ayushi1024]

I'm not sure if you might know but you can find Pizza pie in India. It's actually the only pie item that has been in the menu ever since McDonald's started in India and it has been constant. It's a vegetarian item and it's not called a pie rather "Pizza McPuff". It's very good and my best memories of childhood include burning the top of my mouth and tongue eating with and cooling it down with an iced tea. LOL But you should definitely try to make a homemade version of it for there are multiple recipes of it. It would definitely be lovely to see you recrreate some other vegetarian items from Indian McDonald's and get Phoebe to try them. OMG it sound so exciting!!!!!

[@StuartReeve-vv5sz]

You might want to check the walls for that bit of apple pie you flung of you finger! 😂😂

[@shawnraley5944]

You can try the pasta one again just try to let everything cool down before you seal it and use a flour paste to seal the edges before you crimp it. Also wanton or egg roll wraps make wanton filling and egg roll filling.

[@liamthompson4114]

Trust me you didn't miss much with the galaxy caramel pie. It had so little flavour. It was actually really disappointing and didn't taste anything like galaxy caramel, It was more of a custard with a slight tinge of caramel colour. It wasn't that good

[@LeoGiusti]

In Australia, they tried doing deep fried Mac N Cheese things that were more the size of a McNugget than an Apple Pie. I quite enjoyed them but it seems like the rest of Australia hated them as they have not been sold in over 10 years.

[@byroboy]

The press needs a certain thickness to press the two halves together. you might have managed to make the mac n cheese if you had doubled up the pasta sheet after boiling it. That said I'm in my arm chair, you actually cooked the things.

[@andybrown4284]

The chocolate and caramel was basically their take on the deep fried mars bar. You could almost certainly use sweets like cadbury's heros or quality street (unwrapped of course) as fillings for a sweet pastry. Something else to try would be to make them some an ice cream filling using more of a filo style pastry, pop them in the freezer to make sure the centres cold and flash them in a fryer to crisp only the outside.

[@lasagnagoob5947]

I don't understand how some people never knew Abt this...this was legit my childhood.....

[@AdrianWoodUK]

To be fair, I would say the moral of the burger one is less "don't microwave a microwave McBurger Pie", and more "don't microwave a tiny microwave McBurger Pie for the full time of a full burger". I'd be interested in you trying this again, but cutting the microwaving time in half.

[@Studders01]

Hi there Barry. I’m new to your channel and this is the first video of yours I have watched. I think you should get this 3d printed and sell it hahaha. I definitely would want to try making these pies using that machine

[@SonicStealth]

I didnt click this video because i wasnt pulled in by the description, but so glad i actually watched it, great video, my suggestion would be smores with marshmallows and chocolate, just not sure of the base, bread/pastry etc, I'd think a puff pastry shell with marshmallows and chocolate would be a great idea 👌😋

[@brianartillery]

The McD apple pie was one of the very few food items of theirs that I enjoyed. Then they stopped frying them, as a move to 'healthier' menu items, and baked them instead. Now, I eat fried food possibly twice a month, and really liked the mouth feel of the pie - it was stupidly hot, crumbly and sweet - in a totally different way to every other pie. Now it's just a baked pie, and I'm not so keen on them anymore. There was a 'Mc Pizza', but it was a tremendous failure, and I think McD try to pretend it never happened.😆😆😆 You might want to try a 'Mc Fish Finger pie'.

[@CarlGorn]

You need to do a strawberry-rhubarb pie. The combination is divine. Also, as a fellow paprika fanatic, I would heartily suggest you do a fried cheese pie with smoked paprika sprinkled in the filling. Trust me, you'll love it.

I made egg rolls for the first time a few weeks ago and it reminded me of the old school mcdonalds pies. Do you get egg rolls in england? Here you can buy the wrappers fresh at most supermarkets and asian markets all have them. Its similar a bit in texture but thicker I guess. Maybe some dumpling wrap might work better. Springroll wrappers are completely different much crispier and like phylo pastry kinda but not layered.

[@DawnShipley1977]

I think the pasta one would work better if you use freshly made pasta. My recipe for pasta is 1 cup flour, a bit of salt, 3 egg yolks, and a little bit of water to bring it together if dry. Kneed it for 8 to 10 minutes and then let it rest in the refrigerator for at least a half hour.

[@songbyrd0001]
