I missed the exact timing when I'm supposed to break my bowl ….jk, I love that you leave your mistakes in. Real people have real things happen.
Balls
😂😂😂
Italian meatballs are small. Italians rarely use garlic. These are American meatballs. Nothing Italian about this.
you could….make the polenta the day before and chill in a pan that gives at least 1in thick layer. cut into generous squares and fry them in evol, then add the meatballs
No Veal ? I'm OUT , Broken Glass ? I'm never coming back here
Awesomeness!!
They're like mini meatloafs.
Those meatballs look delicious! From a taste and culinary perspective, what is the difference in polenta and grits?
Who remembers when Sam gave away garlic presses years ago? Now he's using pre-pressed garlic from a tube?
Thank God you don't have broken glass in your stuff lmaoooooff
Not gonna lie. I actually stocked up on squeeze garlic from my Aldi. for the 20$ I spent, it will help a ton! Great job breaking the glass pot head. LOL
Was Max’s phone broken, he was very “interactive” in this video? 😂 Great looking balls, by the way!
I’ve been saying it-bring back the fat cloves of garlic! I miss the press. #bringbackthegarlicpress
Did you get that recipe from Marie Barone with the taragon😂😂
Max's favorite… $200 pound of hamburg. you guys need to go touch grass
I'm a big fan of the squeeze garlic. Way more convenient than cloves and taste way better than the jars.
Bad move on the glass cleanup.
Inexperienced viewers missed out on an essential safety-first lesson.
Reflects badly on you and your establishments. Is this how you handle broken glass in your restaurants?
Any chance you miscounted your knife giveaway supply amount last year and have one left over you need to give to someone???? Like me possibly? Or possibly just some odd STCG trinket laying around that just keeps getting in your way. Hate to think of you having to move a cast iron pan, griddle, kitchen towel, tee-shirt, or the like out of your way everytime you need to make a video. Ill gladly help you tidy the place up and take it away for you. 🤪
Trying this over the weekend.
I use that same tube of garlic shiv is amazing. Screw whoever says diff
Thats just a round Italian meatloaf lol looks amazing
So, what happens when you don’t have all the ingredients needed to make this? Easy, you substitute.
Starting off I didn’t have any Italian sausage so I mashed up a bunch of those little wieners you get in a can. I did 4 cans. I bought some hamburgers, no cheese, and used the beef patties instead of the Wagyu. For breadcrumbs I just used the buns the burgers came with. I had some eggs and I went ahead and fried them in some leftover grease that I cooked catfish in.
See, that’s using my gray matter. Save on cooking time.
I’m not sure what spices I used. I just took whatever was in the spice rack. Instead of Parmesan Reggiano I used a whole tube of that ‘cheese’ that comes in a green tube. Who doesn’t love that stuff. It has more than your daily recommended intake of sawdust
Since I was smart I didn’t have to worry about heating up the kitchen. Everything was already cooked.
I put everything on a plate and took it to the dining room so my family could enjoy my creativity.
My wife filed for divorce, one of my children actually called the police and the dog did his business on my leg…
I just had all me teeth removed and am dealing with dentures. It sucks
I can do the math…almost 70 k views. You're doing alright. Great content as always. I'm sure your analytics show solid retention.
I gave info to your product site.
I HAVE had 4 calls from extended Car Warrenty
What's up?
Hey dude! I buy pre peeled garlic and buzz it in a mini robo coup, better than the tube crap. Run your onions thru that too or onions and garlic together….. Meatballs look dreamy bruh!
SAM if you like true crime go listen to Small Town Murder. Those guys are facking hilarious. Also send me a knife
Damn never wanted balls in my mouth more than this!
Definately throw it all out start over
Man that looks great. Only thing you forgot was an AED (Auto External Defibrillator) as a side . . . for the pending heart attack.
For a healthier version, instead of bread crumbs I use pork rind crumbs. I use it for coating chicken too and it's way better than bread crumbs or flour. You can buy panko rinds or just crush a bag of them up.
OMG the flashbacks I'm having with the broken glass and a chain restaurant and bottomless mimosas. Yup put that together and some imagination. Any how Sam Max Stroganoff!! Beef Stroganoff! Could you please make this a few different ways as there so many ways to make it. I even like to spice it up a bit. Curious to find out if you can make on the traeger. Dunno sounds like a cool concept.
Where is the FDA when you need them.
Good thinking leaving the glass scene in.. after going through the comment section, I’d say you gained a ton of attention just from that part alone. For anyone with no common sense, duh, get new ingredients, but I’m pretty sure we all know better.. judging by these comments 😉
Here before he reports he has internal bleeding
Those are dumb what is this a contestof how bigyou can makethe. For clicks.
Sam..you failed here.
Now you're Sam the Lisping Guy.
GLASS. 😢 WTF?
Love the Meatball recipe, a lock Italian restaurant I love makes the best veal meatballs, will have to give this a try!
Sam, I've been complaining about the parsley for years
100% you need to make the Cracker Barrel Steak and egg Hash brown casserole!
Also, I think ima hit up Not Not Tacos when I goto San Diego at the end of march!
Keep up the great F—-ing content!
I saw this and I had to make it for dinner! It turned out delicious!!! My kids and husband loved the meat balls! 3/4 of us loved the polenta I’m shocked the kid that didn’t like felt that way she’s my Mac n cheese kid. Anyhow this is going into rotation! LOVE LOVE LOVED IT! Thanks Sam and crew!
