I’m just glad I found a food channel where they are not sitting in their cars eating fast food. Keep it up!

[andrewb]

This is like hanging out with your buddy who kicks ass in the kitchen. Always good food. Always entertaining.

I've been looking around YouTube for a good Chic Fillet copycat recipe for a chicken sandwich. I know that's not what this is, but it looks even better. I'm searching no more. This is the one I'm going to try. Thanks👍🏻👍🏻

[MrKernkraft]

I don't know how you came recommended, but my wife and I watch your videos daily. Definitely going to give these a try. Love the enthusiasm and simplicity.

[vono]

I did this on lockdown but all I had was coconut milk no heavy cream or buttermilk. I put graded onion and giardiniera in the marinate... topped with tomatoes and spinach and the sauce you made here but only had dill seed and green onion, thanks to you Sam I stockpile green onions and Japanese Mayo... these are surprisingly not hard to get during lockdown ...it was fantastic!!!

[HiKorey]

Honestly the quality of this channel makes it so much better than others. There's plenty of great chef's with great videos, but the quality of filming, editing, and great easy to follow food puts yours over the top.

[elroc]

You rock, man. Not the most complex recipes, but each dish looks like wet dream material.

[miles]

Sam, I have been making your recipes and using your cooking methods for my family recently and they have been loving it! Thanks for the good content, funny videos!

[csl]

This guy killing the content. Love how much of a freestyle/ go with the flow vibe you have. I think that really inspires anyone to just hop in the kitchen and create
