So for anyone else who may be not so current on the latest lingo (me lol)...GBD is Golden, Brown, Delicious. This recipe is certainly just that. Thank you dear Matt. 😊💞

What a great recipe! I love your choice of toppings for the bunuelo chips! I also love the idea that you can tailor the toppings to your own preferences, and one of mine would be to use prepared cajeta (my favorite is Coronado) with drained pineapple chunks, drained mandarin orange segments, and flaked coconut. I should also mention that your method of making homemade cajeta reminds me of the only time a cookbook had to be recalled by its publisher. In the late 1970s, "Woman's Day" magazine had a crock-pot cookbook with a recipe for making cajeta (although they called it "caramel sauce"). They suggested that you put an unopened can of sweetened condensed milk in water in a crock pot and let it cook for several hours. Unfortunately, the recipe's creators neglected to mention what you mentioned, Matt, that an unopened can of anything would create steam in it and cause its contents to explode. Because of that danger, the publisher recalled the cookbooks and, if the owners of the cookbook didn't want to participate in the recall, the publisher instructed them to cross out the recipe. And I second the suggestion for more Mexican-inspired recipes. Love them all!

I absolutely love this! Thank you for your continued tutes and your history connection with some of the recipes. Your content past and current are fun and shot with great care. One dream segment I would love to see you tackle would be a series on the many different mole creations. I’ve heard of green, red, yellow…almost a rainbow of mole to choose from…maybe for Pride month?

Grew up in same area. His recipes are legit. Can you do a video on Nachos/Panchos? The ones we’d get at bars, Bigo’s, or at Galaxy Bowl. I’ve never been able to get the cheese right.

[@gmarie8684]

Just found your channel. I really enjoy the recipes. I also grew up in the area. Can you do a video on pozole.

[@mutantryeff]

Ever use birch bark syrup as an alternative to maple syrup? It isn't equal; it is different. There are also good varieties and not so good ones.

[@jeffandurs]

Yummy 🤤

[@rosebojorquez1237]

I associate buenelos and champurado with Christmas! 😊

[@kida12]

200 degrees at altitude would be boiling. Would you lower the temp or leave it at 200?
