It’s time for another BUDGET BATTLE challenge!! This episode… A CHRISTMAS DINNER CENTREPIECE! Normal home cook …
After all these years and the normals seeed to have learnt nothin lmao
Good luck tomorrow guys!!! Try to just have fun !
Jamie's "love getting steamy with Ebbers in Christmas" caught me so off guard!
I'm 100% making those onions for boxing day here. I want to scrap my entire christmas plan and just make most of what was made across both budgets
Just like all videos about meal cost. Whether it's Sorted, Mythical kitchen, Gordon Ramsay. If you take out the cost of the alcohol. The price usually drops by a quarter sometimes even a half. Being both religious and allergic means I can probably make Jamie's dish for $100 less.
Love the music in this one
Just sitting here eating my white rice with butter and salt dinner while judging the food you've made
While I do love these videos, they always make me wonder just what is possible if the chef had the unlimited budget
i was hoping for something really extravagant with the unlimited budget, like A5 wagyu wellington with truffles and caviar lol. but venison is probably more interesting!
Merry Christmas or what ever. The Chef always wins.
good old Ebbers, always finding the positive in every situation, what an inspiration he is.
I'm sorry, I can't watch your show. I really wanted to, but my bank declined the foreign purchase. Sigh.
Loved the edit on that J line about getting steamy in the kitchen with Ebbers. Well done. 😁
Are you ever gonna post the live pass it ons later for those of use who can’t budget to pay to watch it live? I mean it could be months later and give y’all more revenue from the basic watches.
Ben, you are incredible! Amazing job!! It just shows you how much you can do staying on a budget. You don't have to miss on good festive food, ever.
Bay leaves add nothing only if you like them cause trust me. A dish can just see a bay leaf ni passing and I'll eat it VERY begrudgingly. They're poisonous and my body apparently knows it very well and would really rather do without them XD
good old Ebbers, always finding the positive in every situation, what an inspiration he is.
I would like to see a challenge in which chef have infinite budget and normal has a limit . Just to see how far normals have come and what a chef can do with no limits.
Well done chef ♡♡♡
I'm always amazed at how cheap you can get ingredients/food over there! There's no way I could get those things for under 9.99 (in US equivalent) here in the US.
Veal is baby cow 🙁
I like to par boil my potatoes, heat a tray with butter in the oven, chuck in rosemary thyme and garlic give the tattys a good toss in the mixture and about half way through smash slightly and cook out for the remainder. Works with new potato's too as a cozy snack, get yourself a bowl of dipping gravy 💪
Was't the transport added in? Rounding out the typical at
2 Pounds 50 pence. You walking for a few blocks at least.
one way: can of ground cooked meat paste (bargain patte) pack of biscuits and free Napkins from the lunch counter. boom then a donated (free meal no money) Christmas meat Then bam!
I used to think bay leaves didn't do much because, let's face it, most people have 10yr old jar of dried leaves.. Many years ago one of my patients gave me a shopping bag full of branches of fresh bay leaves from her garden & we shared it throughout the office. Once I tasted fresh bay, my mind was blown. I now have a plant myself, but can even pick up the taste when dried leaves are used in a dish. I now love bay leaves & use it in many dishes.
I like vegetarian
Break a leg this weekend, guys!
As someone who doesn't eat a lot of vegetables, Ben's tips make them sound amazing! I've been trying to switch to more vegetarian meals for better nutrition and budget. I'm watching the video for a second time so I can write down some tips!
Chef Ben please track Jamie how to use a knife. I thought he would know after over 10 years – but evidently he doesn't!
You used meatglue, some experiments with it would be quite interesting, would love to see the reaction of the normals to a "frankensteak" a steak made out of different meats glued together, venesion, cow, pork, chicken, lamb, etc.
Can we get the recipe for Ebbers's meal!?!?!
I think you need to give them the same budget and making the same food. Lets see who maling it better
You need new chef that will work against Ben as it was in the past
In Israel mushrooms and brussels sprouts are expensive
I'm wondering if you guys can have a food challenge of coming up with dishes that are GERD friendly? The baked onions and marmalade cranberry sauce in this episode sounds so good but unfortunately are bad for me due to all the acid in them. This also goes for fresh garlic (unless frozen beforehand), tomatoes, lemons, oranges, chocolate, fatty meats, and egg yolks. This also applies to anything extremely fried.
Thanks!
Absolutely excellent! Well done!
You can put on a much greater fare for £2.50/person when you've got, well…. more than 1 person to cook for.
No one gonna mention the pure raw venison? O.o
How can people not taste bay leaves? That's odd to me. Because they are so strong it must be an anomaly in one's pallette to not be able to taste it. Not even the aroma?
Sorry guys but the roulade was raw and judging from Jamey's look after he cut it, he knew it. I'm not even sure if the sausage meat is done, I used my sous-vide several times and 2 hours at 58 degrees will not reach the centre.
As a Swede, i have to say that we're not actually vegitarian to consume O.O
The cut to Mike and Barry after Ben says "cut side down" (9:16) is so funny to me. Like they have no idea what he's talking but desperately want to look like they do 🤣
Wait, wait, wait… Mister Paella Burrito has a MARKETING DEGREE?! Something isn't adding up here XD
Did the £2.50 include energy cost or we end up with just salad?
I’m watching this from the tropics in Australia and the English Christmas food is completely juxtaposed to ours of salads, prawns, bbq, ham, basically anything that doesn’t need cooking inside!
Ben’s feast is amazing! The spread produced from just a few flavour bombs is something that I’ll definitely remember and use in the future. Well done Ben!!
The only thing bayleaf adds is grossness 😂
Another banger video, not just a Christmas video, but a banger video in general. I can't stop watching them getting the food ready at the end, part of it due to the song being stuck in my head. You guys will do amazing at the live event tomorrow at the time of this comment going up.
