Who in the world would think your videos are too long? I could watch your shows all day.

[@jcburgeson]

Those who are in a hurry should wait until they have the time to watch carefully.

[@rbjr.8106]

Or as the Chef would say.... Go watch tik tok took..... Take as much time as you need, Chef....

[@canaisyoung3601]

Most people's attention spans these days are shot.

[@ianthomas1060]

Too short = mistakes made and corners cut.

[@Juicypaint]

I actually DO watch Chef's videos all day!

[@RIDERSONLINEORG]

Don't let them rush you Chef. You are amazing... Most people on KZbin don't even come close to your credentials. You take all the time you want. Your videos are a pleasure to watch!

[@Thomas6332]

I absolutely agree! I need time too if I'm going to cook along with you.

[@Oppenheimer1968]

" I don't want to hear about the Italians telling me its not polenta...don't want to hear about the people (Georgia southern folks of course) telling me its not grits". You don't beat around the bush-you tell it like it is and you don't tip-toe around like the rest. Well Done Chef!

[@1LSWilliam]

Yup. All true Georgians agree.

[@finianday-lewis9769]

Your videos are NEVER too long, and you NEVER talk too much. “Cooking, it’s like love making, we’re not in a hurry, we’re having a good time! God bless America” pure genius chef, I laughed out loud.

[@demicamack6670]

And I quote...."It's like love making, we're not in a hurry"!!! LOVE U4 LIFE CHEF!!!🤪🤪🤪😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯♥️♥️♥️♥️🤣🤣🤣🤣

Jean Pierre is the best YES. I cook two times a month for our neighbours and us a nice recipe from Jean-Pierre and show them the video bevor we eat. Everybody is more than happy with the meal and the funny video with Jean-Pierre.

[@tomwoods1725]

So glad my wife found you on KZbin. Watched you on PBS some years ago

[@roribachcrazylegs]

The world just needs more people like Chef Pierre, simple as that.

[@fiorevitola880]

Chef; Please don't change I enjoy your instruction and personality just the way it is. The recipes are outstanding no matter how much prep there is, you make it simple to follow. I have made shrimp and grits in the past but your recipe looks fantastic and I am definitely going to try it. I only I was in Florida to meet you and go to your cooking classes.

[@robertakerman3570]

Problem: YT minimizes to "like". They really need to have "I LOVE this". Oh well.

[@FuzzyPuddingGamer]

He doesn't do classes anymore. He's KZbin only now

[@Feetloose1]

I bet all the dislikes are from restaurant owners, because Chef JP is giving us all the "secrets" in the kitchen (and now we can do it ourselfs). Love your videos, never too long. And you have fans from ALL over the world, I am from South Africa and your channel is my No 1 on YT. Thanks to you and your production team for all you do, cannot wait for the next one.

[@zysis]

There are dislikes? Where? People are fickle, they would dislike this and it would then make them feel like they are the better chef than JP.

KZbin doesn't have dislikes anymore, what are you talking about? What made you decide to type up this comment lmfao jeez

I swear, I've learned more watching you for a few months, than all the years of trying to prepare other online chefs dishes. The main difference is you not only explain how to cook, but WHY we do things in a particular order. It's made a world of difference and made me a cooking hero in my house. Thanks Chef! You are Fabalous!!!!

[@5050kas]

So true. I can really cook, and since i've been watching Chef Jean Pierre my wife says my cooking has gone up a notch.

[@maryannstewart9051]

You absolutely nailed it! Couldn't agree more, I am finally able to carmelize onions, SUCCESSFULLY!!!

[@serbanalexandriuc6170]

True - I am a cooking hero now in my family.

[@barbarabennett6721]

We were camping and I told everyone I was fixing shrimp and gris for breakfast and their looks said it all! "I don't like grits" was what I heard. When I set them on the table and came back, most of the grits were gone and my camping buddies comments then were " these are really good"! I said " no, they are amazing!" Thanks Chef!

[@marjoriethistlewaite2727]

Who wouldn’t want to come and hangout and cook with you? It’s always great food and fantastic company! Number one place to be! 😊❤

[@Jeebizz101]

chef, I gotta say...I love your chat and the recipes, but most of all I love you eating the hot food and you saying "mama mia!!!"

[@robertakerman3570]

Only thing I've in common w/Chef JP-My stovetop is in the same condition. This Guy is wild. (never a dull moment)

[@hhaughey11]

I also love his cooking, but I truly anticipate when he eats the hot food and smacks his lips, throws his hands and wiggles his fingers. Definitely the most enjoyable part. 😂👍🏼

I love Chef Jean Pierre. He is very knowledgeable and so personable. A joy to watch.

[@emmett-amber5456]

My family and I didn’t start watching you until sometime towards the end of last year. I have to say “thank you” (Thank You!!) for bringing our family together during a time where teenagers (we have a few) think their parents aren’t cool!! We laugh, then laugh til we cry, and say “Maaan that looks good!”. You’ve even inspired us enough to try some and make some of your recipes. They’re AH-Mazing!! I can’t wait to try this one. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. Forever grateful. -Amber

[@trygginoregon]

The only thing I don't like about your channel Chef, is that I have a plan for dinner... I watch another video... change my mind... over and over. They look so good. And every one I have cooked - voila! Keep on cranking them out. I am addicted. (And your stock recipes have changed my life by the way.). Thanks!!

[@TheBear6135]

Video too long? are they kidding??? It´s not only the recipe for the dish that you share, but the love and joy of cooking. That´s what makes your videos so unique and a pleasure to watch. PLEASE go on

[@ChefJeanPierre]

👍👍👍😊

[@klg642002]

I hope you never listen to the folks complaining about the video length. Some folks are just miserable. Those who desire to master perfection appreciate all your attention to detail. Thank you for the hard work. I grew up cooking Cajun foods with my mother, father and grandfather. The time with your food is also time well spent with family. TY again:)

Came to Florida from NJ in 1967 and like Cousin Vinnie, "What's a grit?". I've eaten a lot of grits in many places over the last 50+ years, but have always been underwhelmed, wallpaper paste or lumpy clumps. This recipe, I've got to try. Shrimp, butter, what's not to like? Tres bien, grazi. 🦐 🌽 🧈

Chef, I've always been considered a good cook. I've been cooking since I was 8 years old. I make most everything myself. I make all our breads and rolls as well. But since I have been watching your videos my family and friends say my cooking has gotten even better. I'm so grateful for your videos. Please don't change a thing about them. You are wonderful at instructions and explanations. I love how you enjoy what you do and I admire your abilities. Please don't change your format. You prove to us you are just as human as anyone else and make a mistake every now and then. Please don't change who you are the those who complain about the videos being too long are typical of many folks today, they want everything right now and don't take the time it takes to make something not just good, but great! ❤️👍💯%

Chef, you are amazing. Truly. I just hate how the producers/production staff of the show try to speed you up so much. I watched the video of your steak au poivre and it seemed a lot different. More natural and at a level you prefer it seemed. You meals are magnificent but I really think you’re the star of this show and what bring so many people back. Don’t forget that.

My favorite cooking channel. Thank you!! A request: How to cook the perfect octopus ..

[@ESO529]

Dear Jean-Pierre - I've made so many polenta in my life ... I never thought of putting shredded corn, buttermilk and onions! What a great idea - I sure will try this recipe soon. I usually put 50/50 full cream milk and cream, Parmigiano Reggiano and at the end I add finely chopped fresh mint and some butter 😋. The fresh mint being an idea from my non-cooking hubby and ever since it's our favorite. The shrimps we agree totally on and I put some Pernod Ricard at the end just to "napper" them. Next time I'll cut them in half too - I like the curl! Thanks a lot for your all around great videos, information, tips and ... for just being such a wonderful personality 😍😍😍, Eleonora

Beloved Chef, your videos are never too long. You are a joy and a source of happiness. We are going to make a variation on this that will be possible in our kosher kitchen. We will do it on the dairy side to include all the wonderful cheeses in the polenta and we will use vegetable broth (never water! we are your students :). We will substitute salmon or haddock for the shrimp. Thank you for your hard work and sharing your retirement with us. Love from Chicago.

[@danasampson818]

I made this tonight. It was delicious. 7 or 8 years ago, my wife and I were in Atlanta to watch my daughter play volleyball. Being from the west coast, grits is not something we had ever tried. The night we got to Atlanta, it was late, so we ate at the hotel. They had “cheesy grits” on the menu. We tried them, loved them, and had them each day we were there. So, when I showed my wife Chef JP’s recipe, she immediately said I should make them. Well, they were awesome, and my first time ever making grits. Even without the shrimp, the grits were ah-mazing!

My husband and I made the shrimp and grits for lunch today....so important to have your 'misen place', as it goes really fast! The polenta was delicious and I happened to have some on hand, just never had an incentive to make it. Will be a go to side dish more often, the buttermilk was a fabulous addition! Keep these videos as informative as they are, your humor is wonderful, and a breath of fresh air, we watched 5 starting this morning before figuring out what we would make for lunch. Truthfully, it took longer to clean up afterwards than make the dish! A wonderful tribute you gave to your former pastry chef, when we watched you make the Bouche de Noelle. ( your videos are NOT too long)
