Perfect Carne Asada Burritos: Takeout vs Pro Chef | Taking on Takeout | Bon Appétit

[@kingoffongpei]

BA, just wanna say, I've been critical of the "takeout vs pro chef" series in the past, since I didn't see the point, but I appreciate the change in format. This new concept is so much better! I like the review of the various takeout spots in the beginning, pointing out what is typical, and what is ideal when it comes to the dish in question. And the rest is completely dedicated to making the best version of it, rather than all the focus on speed. Shoutout to whoever was involved in revamping the series.

[@EnragedMollusk]

Agreed. This was much better than the timed ones.

[@Alahandrino]

you mean uncle harold?

[@jamesburns679]

This man just did 5 recipes in a 16 min video. I love it

[@BALLSOHARDU]

That burrito sucked more than the trash you get at chiplote. Meat was too big, flour was wrong size, failed wrapping technique-just like the sad wrapping at chipotle.

[@Black-yj1xw]

@@BALLSOHARDU 100k+ people disagree with you

[@flix7631]

@@BALLSOHARDU "flour was wrong size". good troll game.

[@scottgottstein8308]

Married to a Mexican. Every aspect of 1 Mexican recipe involves at least 5 separate recipes lol

[@trinidad510]

@@BALLSOHARDU his wrapping technique was completely correct, he just put way too much filling in the burrito so he couldn't tuck it properly, also he was using a fake mission tortilla which doesn't help, as far as his technique though that was correct; you pull in the sides then pull over the longer side and tuck under tightly

[@SaMoaSix8Five]

Love Harold! So glad they hired him for this show, he's added much needed flavour and I love how he keeps to his own style and they just let him cuss on video and just bleep them out hahaha

[@dstrtmali202]

OMG!! He's my favorite!!

[@joebaer1358]

BA got a gun to your head bruh?

[@O2BAmachine]

💯 Agreed, he's dope. He just seems very genuine and like you said he adds some flavour... comes across like someone you've known your whole life.

[@O2BAmachine]

@@joebaer1358 because he likes Harold? I'm honestly wondering. I know about the BA drama, so I'm assuming you're talking about that, but I don't see the connection. Possibly because I'm a bit tipsy, so do forgive me.

[@joebaer1358]

@@O2BAmachine I will say two things, 1. if anyone tries to make a burrito with mission “tortillas”, they objectively don’t know what they are doing. 2. It’s disappointing because Rick was such an expert at authentic Mexican cuisine, and BA didn’t pay him, so now they have this clown trying to fill his boots. That is all.

[@dmadrigal821]

Harold is by far my favorite cook on BA. He keeps it real and I love it!

@@TravelingStacker why wouldn't you?

[@TravelingStacker]

@@jkaznosky Because I don't know why you said he sold out. So again I ask, why say that? What makes him a sellout? I wouldn't say that because I'm not aware of him being a sellout. Please enlighten me.

[@BigbyOShaunessy]

I haven’t been to this channel since before the pandemic started. This episode blew me away. The density of information was overwhelming. It was rich with ideas and inspiration, while using ingredients that are available in a typical grocery store. I’ll be keeping my eye out for Harold now.

[@Luaralev2k]

I absolutely love this guy I’m Mexican and my mom cooks exactly like him and I’ve been laughing the whole time seeing someone else cook like us

[@brianaguirre1]

BA failed Harold though giving him those Mission tortillas

[@BarefootFarm]

I agree!

[@HireMichaelEverson]

Mission makes tortillas for people that like lettuce on their tacos.

[@crystalkerstal]

@@HireMichaelEverson what?!?!? Lmfao I never realized that most authentic tacos don’t have lettuce.

[@HireMichaelEverson]

@@crystalkerstal yeah a lot of people thought cilantro was too spicy so they switched it out for lettuce.

[@Nihilist_Porcupine]

@@HireMichaelEverson I think a lot of people also have a gene that makes cilantro taste like soap, so that probably didn't help. Lots of big opinions about cilantro.

[@mangochiii]

Harolds a WIN 🥇 for Bon Appétit for sure

[@stonechops]

I think he hit the nail on the head when he audibly exclaimed ‘$14!’ A huge price tag don’t mean the ingredients are better or seeing ingredients that are unobtainable.

[@DCamp1271]

This dude is lovable. He is real, down to earth and an excellent chef! 😍

[@maryoconnor2527]

You just did SUCH a good description, I was just thinking like, gosh, this guy is charming, but not, like smooth talker charming, I couldn't think of the right words, but loveable/real/down to earth is perfect, just intrinsically likeable.

[@jogianna]

So proud of Harold on the BBQ Brawl. Goes to show he could always cook, and cook well 👍🏾

[@moreno1024]

Uncle Harold is a G! I'd get down with this burrito, rice or no rice. But come to SoCal, SD specifically. We'll show you how it's done 💪. Mexican food is also very regional. The way we make molé in Baja isn't the same way we make it in Oaxaca. Same goes for burritos.

I knew homie was legit as soon as he busted out the OJ marinade. Shout out to him for giving Lowkey Burritos a shout out too! I would have loved to have seen the asada diced prior to being put in the burrito, but as an East LA resident I would still gladly eat that burrito!

[@darkstar2963]

Bro, everything was a dub here until the Mission tortillas. I'm OFFENDED

[@scottmcfarlane7524]

"bro" learn to talk !

[@HireMichaelEverson]

People get offended when I trash NY Mexican food. That Mission tortilla lost me. He was hitting it point by point until the end. That burrito roll was LAZY.

[@25787fdshj]

It’s probably what was available :/ (however nothing beats handmade right?)

[@kindabluejazz]

Unfortunately, I can't find anything bigger than 11" tortillas in any grocery store near me. Harold and BA can probably get commercial/restaurant sized ones (13-14") but I think he wanted to do this will all things we can get in a regular grocery store.

[@yeeeaaahbuddy]

Best host you've hired in like two years BA.... Dude is saving your channel.

[@sidviscus]

I completely disagree. This guy is disgraceful, sloppy, and has no personality. They clearly hired him to fill a diversity quota because everyone was angry (unrightfully) at BA, so they clearly said "Ok we need to hire more ethnic and size diversity..." and filled two of those qualities with this host. The videos he's in get very few views as well.
