In a world of image, ego and illusory instagram perfection it's so nice to see a video like this; perfectly imperfect. The greatest successes are a mere consequence of repeated failures. Having a skilled chef proudly demonstrating this offers a lesson that far transcends cooking. KZbin needs more Andy Cooks!

In 2 words what did you just say and if you must use 3 go ahead

Where is the babe

[@user-ud3bd1ub4g]

What I particularly enjoy in Andy’s videos - it’s how calm, tranquil and natural he is while cooking. No rush, no making faces, no overreacting (no matter how awesome the dishes are) - he’s talking to the audience as to adults.

[@andy_cooks]

I’m glad you like them! Thanks for the support

[@SuperGGLOL]

Halal chef popped up on my mind when you said no overreacting XD

[@chasingdogs]

And he talked Metric!

[@mt73isme91]

nothing better than a chef who is all about his trade not acting like a fool. just good honest advice and a clear passion

[@apollo4657]

I respect you so much more for leaving everything in the video. It’s nice to know that world-class chefs make mistakes just like we do. But like you said it still looked amazing and pink to me and I’m sure it tasted incredible. Respect. 👊🏻👌🏻

[@milehighed52801]

Andy, you are a talented chef. I enjoy watching your KZbin shorts, but they move a bit fast to follow. A longer format like this one will help. I look forward to watching you show us how to tackle meals without feeling intimidated. Thanks for sharing your experience and skills with us. 👍🏼 Cheers from the US! 👍🏼

[@andy_cooks]

Thanks Mile!

[@Lykzabet]

Short format entertains, longer format informs, that’s the difference in short 😉

[@Happythings354]

@@Lykzabet not for everyone tbh. I dont watch a lot of shorts. I cant stand 1 mili second editing. Its not entertaining for me at all, rather frustrating... but luckily not everyone is like me and people enjoy the shorts.. otherwise many people werent stars as they are now.

[@Lykzabet]

@@Happythings354 I hear you, they would be better if they were sorta like teasers to a longer format how to vid, but yes I do find them engaging. Recent data suggests short format holds the attention span of younger folk 🙊🙈🙉

[@aldente9310]

You're just slow. Do both

[@Milney10]

Thanks Andy, perfect for my fathers’ day lunch plans.

[@aaronclarke7752]

Stumbled across this channel after seeing the little jimny in a short, best cooking channel by far!

[@dtweedale]

I love this guy. Pro chef, “overcooks” it to his standard and posts the video anyway because sh*t happens and it’s still gonna be ace because it’s seasoned, seared and rested really well. Legend!

[@shawnhampton8503]

I have always been fascinated with Yorkshire Pudding... so this would be a cool thing to see you make. This was my Sunday dinner growing up in Texas. English family heritage does not fade easily even after many generations.

[@bushratbeachbum]

Yorkshire pudding is the bombdiggity!! Best tip is smoking hot oil or lard in the tin, don't open or bang the oven while it's rising. I could happily eat it a few times a week and often make extra to stuff leftover roast dinner in to have cold. Though im not, i eat like a stoner so my favourite filling is beef, stuffing (cooked separately, on its own) parsnip, cheese and jam. Killa!!!

[@chrissyknowsitall5170]

I'm so happy your sub count is going up!! You really deserve this success!! I can't wait till you hit 1 million!!🎉🎉✨️✨️🎊🎊🎊

Thanks for the support!

[@jeromespiteri1801]

Just seen this gem of a video the other day. It's 34 degrees Celsius here in Melbourne, and I'm currently following this recipe, turning my kitchen into a hot box 😂. Love your work Andy, your definitely my favourite influencer in the cooking world, big thanks to Josh Weissman for doing the collaboration with you and allowing me to find your stunning videos.

[@dannybarrass6907]

Never comment on anything ever on KZbin but I'm a chef myself and I agree with I think a lot of people, just by seeing the first three comments that I came across. The best thing about this video is he actually posted it as it was. Andy you obviously know what your doing and I love your videos especially this one, as it is what everyone does at some point and it's more relatable. You explain things very well too, cheers to you.x

[@jessicapenney3261]

Love all of your videos Andy, makes me feel like I could also try cooking some of the things you make. Also love how calm and collected you always are in the kitchen. Keep the content coming xx

[@BlancNoix14]

That’s why you’re one of my fave chefs Andy. So humble and relatable and very informative. Kudos mate. You’re the best!

[@ctwest3601]

Loving the full length videos. Keep em coming!

[@bensonhedges26]

By far the best cooking channel i’ve come across on youtube, and it’s not really close. Your presenting style, your honesty, your enthusiasm, are all top notch. Glad that you’re getting the recognition that you deserve.

[@drumaddict89]

the honesty and the straight forward style of you is just so great! humble, passionate, real! love your videos. keep it up chef!

[@crewe99]

Hey Andy. As a former regular visitor to Toms Kitchen in Chelsea UK. Just wanted to say a huge thanks for all your content! From your restaurant dishes to your home cooking dishes throughout lockdown and beyond! Love your channel and everything you do! Keep up the great work! 🙌

[@erwinheitzman9854]

Love the fact that it was a little overcooked but kept the video the way it is and didn't try to hide it. Great video, cheers!

[@Tuatara587]

The medium roast is perfect for my kids - glad you kept it !

[@smudgybuzz]

I love that you didn’t reshoot the the mid-well roast. Thank you for turning self-acceptance into an act of kindness we can give ourselves.

[@BRC76]

Great video and so authentic. Chapeau.

[@benrobins4626]

I have been following your content for a while and this video sums up why I think I like it so much. Leaving that in and talking about it at the end oozes humility! Bravo 👏🏻

[@martintg94]

I love that you kept the the overcooked beef in the video. More people should be like you, to not be afraid to not be perfect all the time

[@shaneo33t]

I love that your honest in your videos and by no means did you butcher it. It certainly had my mouth watering.

[@tylerwestpfahl9941]

Just made this dish…. Thank you so much for your generosity in showing us how to make this! Honestly one of the best things I’ve ever made 🙏

[@stevegalanis2895]

Love your work Andy.

[@dailanellis2263]

Mate!! Love how real and honest you are as a now, well known chef !! I’m a head chef and can’t cook at home to save my life!! Brilliant!

[@angelogervasio5723]

Andy!!! Great channel. Love the authenticity of what you do. Keep being real!!!!

[@andy_cooks]

Thank you!

[@colinclarke3338]

Great cook. Awesome honesty. It makes it easier for home cooks to accept their own mistakes. Thanks chef. Love it.

[@Nancy-yg9cm]

Thank you Mr. Andy for sharing your recipe with us. Very descriptive and detailed. 👌 I'm not a chef but I appreciate your time explaining and my husband too because he reaps the benefits of the food l'lI make through you. 💓 Love the humbleness about the meat, "it happens in real life" very true none of us are perfect. God bless you, Nancy from NYC.

[@j3rocketeer]

Always a pleasure to watch and learn Andy.

[@andy_cooks]

Thanks !

[@ericplatt5749]

I love to see your passion for cooking. I headed a restaurant for 5 years when I was a younger man and the fast paced stress filled kitchen got the best of me not ashamed to admit it. Not everyone can run a kitchen I know you understand. God bless you and your family I wish you nothing but success!!!!!

[@sampaquitee423]

Thanks Andy, your videos are so wholesome and relatable. I'm always keen to try (and fail) your recipes. FYI your adobo is my go to recipe for harmony days (I'm half filo). ♥️

[@STEEZEWITHROME]

My favorite chef to watch on KZbin. Even when he doesn’t make it to his liking he shows it and tells the truth. None of us are perfect especially when it comes to cooking. Great job as always chef.

[@Heather_H.123]

THANK YOU! The pressure to make everything perfectly causes so much anxiety for me and takes away my joy in cooking for those I love. Reminding myself that even professional chefs make mistakes will hopefully take some of that pressure off.

[@justinhunter4991]

Just started in the industry not too long ago, I have just under a year of experience but watching your videos is really inspiring! Your experience and knowledge to make anything you want and having everything turn out delicious is a skill I want to work towards 🙂

[@TheBigk1964]

Great comment about having a try! I really appreciate the honesty about the "overcooked" meat! As a passionate home cook , I often say that you have to eat a lot of bad mistakes before you get anywhere near good at it! Great video!

[@FraserFulton22]

Truly think your content is the most educational of all the food content creators. Love it

[@davidohlson6872]

Glad I’m not the only one to overcook something

[@rustygaming7881]

Very humble video in all honestly that meat came out wonderful! thanks for the great tips on roast potatoes learnt some new things

[@andrewleonhardt1221]

Late to the party here, but absolutely love your honesty, I too make mistakes in the kitchen, but hey, the kids still say they loved it!

[@katemaguire3455]

Andy, love your great looking and great tasting roast 🥩 beef. I learned a lot from this cooking, especially the making of your gravy. Bon Appétit!

Looks delicious, thank you Chef!

[@bethv5798]

Such a pleasure watching you how to cook so calmly with so much love on what you are doing. Kudos to more videos. You deserve the 25M. Bon appetit👍👏🍾

[@thien4133]

You the man Andy. Loved that you were so honest about the mistake and more importantly not wasting that delicious meat!! Would love to see more of these types of videos. Perhaps a roast chook next? ;)

[@suzannetabone5578]

My all time favourite comfort food! Thankyou chef for this. My dad makes this for me ...with all the trimmings...whenever I visit them in Scotland. Just doesnt taste the same anywhere else. Really appreciate yr honesty also. 👌🌻

[@janetfaello7167]

Love your videos!!!!!

[@juliancarion9761]

Love it mate ..... And love watching your KZbin. Keep it up please

[@alonsogodoy2707]

Voila nice andy❤ tanks for this recept

[@rakdoss8455]

The most important thing is your beef still looked moist. I've found the core temp of larger pieces seems to shoot up after the 45C mark. And the more fat on the outside (Sirloin with that fat cap for example) can increase by up to 15C whilst resting because the fat retains so much heat from the oven.

[@krosmanfamily]

Killer cook man. Love the honesty too

[@bwilllundgren]

I cook a lot because it's my favorite thing to do. I've made incredible dishes that have absolutely blown my friends and families minds. I've also fully fucked up dishes despite doing all I could to make it something special. I appreciate the honesty that Andy brings to the front when he makes videos like this. Your going to make mistakes. Some of them are salvageable. Some aren't. They're all learning experiences.

[@bheppes]

Looks delicious!

[@rubykeiss1540]

Nice and chilly here in Queensland so will do this for sure. Salivating. Yorkies for sure please. 😋😋👏🏾👏🏼

[@momohaloiu7888]

I don't usually comment but ... you're a real chef , your food looks colorful, beautiful..and from your combination of spices and add-ons I know it tastes amazing ..don't beat yourself up .. thanks for being real !

Followed this recipe yesterday making roast for the first time and it turned out unbelievably! Couldn't get hold of Beef Tallow so used vegetable oil instead and the tats still turned out really nice. Thanks Andy you legend!

New to watching you Andy, and now I have a man crush!, and a huge motivation to get in the kitchen mate, thanks. Daniel.

A great chef can make the best out of anything, just like an artist. Prove me wrong

[@albimazzone2347]

Nowadays it seems that everyone online make perfect dishes, but so many times maybe they lie or they practice with that dish a lot... You are different, you're real and honest... You're a fantastic chef

[@susannesin5929]

[@sandramays795]

That roast beef is cooked just right for me and the potatoes look like perfection.

[@joshstiltner]

Thank you Chef!

[@tygloglo9486]

You're such a great cook keep it up 👍👍👍👍👏😋

[@ButacuPpucatuB]

Thanks so much for leaving the mistakes in the vid!! Julia Child was my most favourite chef when I was a wee baby. I appreciated that she made so many mistakes on camera and left it in. She didn’t demand an unreachable perfection. She had a potato dish that she needed to invert, it all fell apart, some fell onto the counter. She just picked it all up and plodded on. At the end of the episode she ate it, and happily said she liked to eat her mistakes because they’re still edible, no flavour lost, and more experience was gained. Bravo to you for keeping and eating your “mistake” chef. I would probably over cook my meat too 🥰

[@littledoseTM]

For stuff like Roasts etc. i love my MEATER, perfect pink every time
