One of the Best series! Thanks For this

[@brianm6337]

I did it. I got a (cheap) air fryer from Wal Mart a week ago. I'll be taking notes and rewatching this video today.

[@privateeye2490]

Repeating my recommendation to get a lorrie and name it Hugh so you can rename this super budget air fryer.

[@sussudioharvey9458]

For the loaf you probably would have had better results if using the air fryer tray instead of putting it on the bottom. That way the air would have circulated Around the bottom and heating it up like an oven. And they do make both parchment and silicone liners for air fryers.

[@animeartist888]

Exactly what I was thinking. It's not the fault of the loaf shape, but rather the fault of the way the air fryer works. That grate would've definitely helped the bottom cook.

[@fluffycritter]

For the crunchwrap supreme, look for a burrito-size tortilla (rather than merely "large"). You can also get flat tostadas rather than breaking a folded taco shell in half, or you could fry a corn tortilla with a dab of oil in the air fryer for 4-5 minutes.

[@therumor99]

I am from Germany where we have the McRib year round, all the time and i actually worked at McDonalds. At least here, the McRib has never been baked in the sauce. The Meat is grilled fully and then it is placed in a heated bath of the sauce. It takes a couple of minutes for the Meat to absorb the sauce so that it doesnt just slide off. If a lot of people are ordering the Mcrib at the same time and you keep having to refill the meat it doesnt have the time to soak in the sauce enough and thats when you get a dry burger. Yours looks great and i might just try to recreate and compare sometime soon. :D

[@jonjohnson2844]

McDonalds daytime food has been disappointing since the 90s, the breakfasts are OK if you're on an early road trip

[@ilkadingens6051]

Danke, habe mich schon immer gefragt warum mit der Sauce manchmal so sparsam umgegangen wird und warum manchmal die komplette Packung durchgesuppt ist. Ich bevorzuge aber letzteres, es gibt kein zu viel Sauce auf dem McRib. 😂

[@therumor99]

Your Doc Brown moment ... Silicone air fryer tray/ liners

[@kusiciel]

for the lemon loaf start with the foil on and finish with the foil off. also to test doneness use a thermometer, the temp should be close to boiling. and a tip for creaming butter and sugar, whip the butter first then add the sugar.

[@naty51287]

Thank you for the tips! =)

[@BrianWalker93]

Former McDonald's employee here: The McRibs were never cooked in the barbecue sauce. They're made on the same clam grill as the burgers and then dunked into the holding trays with barbecue sauce in them, refilled every so often as new patties are made.

Is it true they put human meat in McDonalds burgers

[@Egzindahouse]

Current Maccies worker here - the new version was not dunked in trays of sauce, it was simply bottled sauce applied to both sides of the bun. Also, not sure who was complaining about the new McRib not having the indents, it definitely did.

[@makedaevilmage]

2:04 missed opportunity for a dad joke ... The capacity of Hugh is not Grant.

[@Ralphroberts100]

This is what justifies a more expensive airfryer, especially the Ninjas. Cheaper airfyers have "programs" for different types of foods, but all they really are is a combination of time and degrees, and then the fan goes full speed. This is why baking in cheaper airfryers is tricky. Even if you just set it at 170 degrees, the fan will blast the cake with the hot air and brown/blacken the cake before it is baked through. The Ninja (and possibly other brands) varies the fan speed too, making it possible to bake/reheat/dehydrate and more

[@shanebowen4085]

I have at home a ninja foodi 11 in 1 multi cooker and I think it would be cool if you could maybe find a budget alternative to this machine and do a series on recipes you could do only using that. it has functions such as slow cooker, saute, pressure cook, air fry, dehydrate, and even yoghurt but its really good for 1 pot meals. love your videos :)

[@JoacoBravo11]

Aye, perfect timing! Just bought a new air fryer during early Black Friday and can't wait to try these!

[@mrbarrylewis]

Nice one, the McRib is probably the easiest!

[@mathboy1066]

Had a steak from an air fryer, very juicy. Would recommend

[@mrbarrylewis]

oh nice!

[@lenalyles2712]

I do all types of meat in the air fryer and love it

[@Miapetdragon69]

Love they're called air fryer liners 😊

[@DijonFromage]

An air fryer is just a small vertical convection oven. It doesn't really fry anything, it just applies heat from above with a heating element and a fan blowing downward. The tray in the bottom allows the air to circulate beneath the food if you're using it. They're good because they don't take a lot of power, preheat quickly and don't heat up the room. They do make very good things like fries if you oil the potatoes when you put them in and they're easier to shake around,... but they really are just a small oven.

[@jasmeralia]

I would love to see you do a series of videos using slow cookers, aka crockpots (no, autoincorrect, I do _not_ mean crackpots). I love mine because the prep is usually fast, and with my arthritis, that's a very helpful thing. If I have to stand too long doing a ton of prep... I just DoorDash or UberEats instead.

[@cclaussen]

That McRib looks so good! 😋

[@scottneil1187]

If McRibs aren't available you can just get the Rustlers version, available all the time and it's lovely, imo.

[@CintiaJigs]

You never fail to surprise us!

[@jassonmoss1]

Like the vid, thanks. Next time try using toothpicks to hold the tortilla/wrap together. It really comes in handy. Also after pausing/stopping, most airfryer's fans run to cool the air fryer but the element stops heating .

[@vilemeister]

TBH I never bother with the branded tortillas, they're such a rip off compared to the supermarket own brand ones. Morrisons own ones are double the size and half the price.

[@JordNL]

Send the frozen McRib to Ashens in 10 years time. He'll eat it. 😂

[@RandyDarkshade2]

Air fryers don't fry. They are just re-arranged convection ovens.

[@maccate6868]

The air fryer which is similar to mine from Aldi, if it is used too much at one time, locks itself from pressing any buttons until it has cooled down.

[@poohbearny]

I worked at Mcdonalds when we had the McRib. The rib is a frozen patty and cooked on the grill. Then it is put in the BBQ Sauce that is kept warm until it is served. It does soak in after some time but if you get one when they first come out the BBQ sauce doesnt "stick" very well due to how juicy the Rib is. We did test a Grilled Steak sandwich which is almost like the rib but more oval shaped and cooked the same way. The McGrilled Steak Sandwich is kept in steak sauce kinda like the McRib. The only real reason it did not take off was due to the cost and price of the item. Kinda like the McLobster which only really sells in the north east part of the US due to product cost and price.

[@andrewzach1921]

That McRib looked really tasty Barry. Thanks for the video

[@lisam2537]

Barry’s stirring as he reads about Greek yogurt 😂😂😂

I know this isn’t the right place for the food combos but, I used to love Birds Eye potato waffles with Philadelphia scraped into the holes, and got my kids into it, too. My husband used to just shake his head. 😂

[@epowell4211]

I've never deconstructed a Crunchwrap, but just always assumed that one layer was one of those precooked crunchy corn tortillas that you can buy a stack of. Every time I have a Crunchwrap I think, "nachos when you have to drive," because it's just nachos in a tortilla pocket lol

[@karleedu]

I experimented with bread loaf. I found that if I lower the temp and increase the time, it comes out perfect!

[@johnhmaloney]

When you first said that you were going to make a drink, I honestly thought that you were just going to pour all of the ingredients into the basket of the air fryer. As much fun as that would have been to watch, I'm glad that you chose to use a mug. lol

[@SingerBabyJay]

Awesome video 📸❤ Love the recipes! Definitely trying some of those 😁👍

[@ForceFreeTrainergirl06]

You can buy air fryer pan inserts made of silicone. I've got the Ninja two basket air fryer and I bought two silicone inserts for it. I use them all the time. Don't have to clean the basket every time.

[@mickeyBtsv]

11:55 Barry, the fan still goes after you turn it off to cool down. It's not still heating, it's just the fan spinning to cool down.

[@stitchesbysue]

A silicone air fryer liner would work for the ground meat! Easy clean.

[@tankzilla6785]

Barry, the title Greek yogurt comes from where it was made first by fage yogurt company in Greece Athens

[@kimvibk9242]

If it is made anywhere else than Greece it should be called Greek Style Yogurt.

[@AlexBryantJOMTU]

This was a great compilation. Hopefully your air fryer is doing alright. I would say the sour cream or yogurt helps add acidity to the batter and supposed to make the final products (cakes) more tender. The Pumpkin Spice Late took me back to the song I made for my October/Halloween album this year (check it out Barry and others). The McRib looked like a legit one you would have gotten from a McD's, but maybe better due to being cooked in the BBQ sauce. Now all McD's does is dip it in the sauce after it has been heated. Hopefully Hugh will pull through, if not, I guess you have others lol.

[@phenylhexanol]

Mini loaves and loaves are way different when it comes to baking. Don't ask me how I know 😂 loaf size cakes can take 40mins up to an hout. And yes the foil to prevent browning definitely helps.

[@doninis1354]

I learned once to cut a slit in the tortilla, fill four parts (cheese, beaf, tomatos, and what ever) and fould it over so you have a triangle (I use my pan to heat it) in the end. I never do it a nother way since. I am stil not convinced that I need an air fryer.

Hi Barry great video what type/brand of BBQ sauce did you use for the mcRib ?

Krispy Kreme donuts were a crushing disappointment when I tried them, so I think they're hard to mess up. 😂 Mind you, I think I've been spoiled by the ones you could get a Cadbury Garden center (not sure if the van is still there as it's been ages since I visited). I finally got my hands on some Pumpkin Spice coffee syrup and i am not disappointed 😋 (which is a good job, really as I could only get it in 90cl bottles 🤣).

[@10tenofthebesst]

barry dont know if it helps any, you want large wraps, asda do mission xl wraps in a red packet I've had them a few times, turns a normal breakfast wrap into a ginormous wrap perfect for the crunch wrap

[@MarkGovier]

The air fryer needs the grid in the bottom to allow the air to circulate beneath what you’re cooking, so the cakes would cook from the bottom as well as the top and sides. Shouldn’t be too oozy then 😂

Great vid! As for the new McRibs, they're awful. I dont know why but it didnt taste the same, tasted off. Maybe I got a bad one or they changed the recipe. They used to scoot sauce on the top and not soak it, but gawd knows what they did to mess up the new ones. Your one looked BANGIN'! Only difference would be a bit of 5Spice to the patty ,but that looked tasteeeeeeeeee!

Most air fryer recipes say to turn/flip the food over midway during the cooking. Perhaps that could improve the donuts?

My personal opinion is that you should just have the three, conventional oven, microwave oven and toaster oven. An air fryer is just an even smaller toaster oven shaped like a pod.
