I think we should all give Marcus some love. His camera work is, by far, one of the best out there. Like top 50 for sure.

I was literally looking for ground beef recipes for tonight. Bless you Sonny 😭 🙏

[StrobeFireStudios]

What's up, dude! I was told by my butcher that ground beef is just all the left over trimmings when they butcher the animal into clean cuts/portions. It all gets ground together and you end up with the ground beef. Sometimes it's fattier, sometimes it's leaner. I love that about ground beef. It's so versatile. Thanks to you and the team for your hard work. Really means a lot to watch you cook stuff I love to eat <3 Cheers from England!

You should get a refrigerator sponsor.

Ground beef and rice are my go to for a meal but this just expanded the possibilities for me

[PinkTigger]

Finally, someone who has the proper ratio of rice to water!!! The directions on the bag always yield soggy, sticky, mushy rice. Thank you for getting it right, and for not using an InstaPot or rice cooker.

Dirty rice is one of my favorite dishes. I use 50/50 ground beef and sausage. I make dirty rice stuffed bell peppers with the leftovers!

My late mother, who was Thai, loved making larb na. My sisters love it. They even make their own larb na!

[scottdalon]

I'm from the New Orleans area and can confirm Hum Bruh is a saying that can mean many things. It can mean disappointment, it can mean yes, it's a lot of things. You used it perfectly in your video. Hum bruh!!! A little tip on the roux should be equal parts by weight and not equal parts by volume. This will make your roux thicker, but hey, whatever works for you, do it!

I make larb (lob). It's incredible. Also, on rice. My family loves it. I use pork/beef mix, which is delicious. I use mint, cilantro & Thai basil, which has a very different taste compared to Italian basil. So delicious.

[ratiquette]

Definitely do the stovetop rice video! I recently gave my rice cooker away because I found myself cooking rice in a pot most of the time, and I didn't want another appliance cluttering up my space. If I'm making at least one cup of rice, my pressure cooker does it faster. If I'm making less than a cup, I get more consistent results from a pot.

Thank you! New ways to use ground beef are always appreciated!

[ChristyCarpenter-mc]

I really like the way you take time and explain the recipe and why you do it this way and not the other. You, sir, are amazing, and so is Marcus.

[ssoozee]

Oh, my gosh, you have more than 2 million subs! I first started to watch you when you made: “Cooking With Sonny.” I’m so happy for you and your success! I still make your rosemary salt and I look like a super cook when I do. As you say, “When you know, you know.” You’re still the best, Sonny!

[georgeshrout]

Tried your Dirty Rice receipe and it's pretty good. While I'm not from NOLA, I do live on the Gulf Coast in Biloxi, I have never heard anyone ever say "Combra". Pretty sure what they were saying was "Come on bro" which is quite common here. I encourage you to check out Charlie Andrews version of Dirty Rice that uses chicken gizzards instead of ground beef. It's the more traditional way we cook the dish. Love your videos bra!!

[christopherstuart]

I made dirty rice plenty of times before without the roux.
Well I made roux and wow it really makes a difference.

Another banger Sonny!

Larb is next!
Also just picked up 8 pounds of ground beef on sale and froze it like a day before this video, perfect timing.

[TheCuriousNoob]

Thank you for explaining how to wash rice in ALL of your rice videos! Some might find it repetitive, but my sister just watched you for the first time with me and she was like, "How do you wash rice?" and you're like, "Glad you asked let me show you."

You deserve a TV show for real.

Thanks more ground beef recipes please

[satayuphasompong]

Laab with sticky rice is absolute banger!! As a Thai.
, we use ground beef to make Krapao rice toooo ( Basil garlic chili stir fried)
