This was the perfect instructional video, straight to the point and quick.
I cant see why anyone would complain about the speed, you can replay it and watch it again if you didn't follow...

[krangdrol]

It’s amazing how professional chefs and their abilities can make what is for many a daunting task seem like a nightmare “conundrum”.

So...are you teaching? Or competing with someone?

[likechaaa]

i know the timer was there to emphasize how quick this is - but i would have preferred a slower video which spent more time teaching exactly how/where to cut the chicken with more close ups. Just some constructive criticism - of my personal preference.

My Filipino mom did this like 2nd nature, always watched her do it but enjoyed the food more than learning how, she passed and so thankful to finally learn! Thank you!

9 years and this has been the best tutorial I've found. Thanks a lot!

[paulina]

if i would do this that fast i'd probably have no fingers afterwards

[meganfrankie]

I tried this method and was surprised at how easy this version is.  My chicken pieces are happily roasting away now.  Thanks for the tip!

I was in a rush before work and had a whole chicken to cut. I had no idea what to do and this video just saved me. Probably the best chicken cutting video out there if you are running late on time.

My chicken must have been a mutant because the pieces I ended up with look NOTHING like his neat little assembly. :(

[chandrimasarkar]

Can you please show us a video about different cookwares for example - non-stick, glass,  stainless steel or anodized, their advantages and disadvantages, which is healthier and best way to maintain them ?

[kevscranes]

I don't know why people are complaining about how fast Thomas was working I found this video very informative and easy to follow. Just use YT settings and slow it down if that's the case Lol. Saves money and enough left over to give the fur babies a treat. Thanks.

I dont wanna insult any one. But why did all of you who are complaing about his speed, watch the video with expectations that it was going to take longer then a min? The video is tittle cutting a a whole chicken in a min. If it took longer everyone would be talking about that was over a min lmao. Come on now

[masterbulgokov]

Perfect video: concise, useful, and beautiful.

Hey Thomas, I love your show and your hosting but I think what most of the people want to see is how to cut the parts precisely not exactly you doing it within a minute.
You always explain how and why you should do things so it would really be great if you can show us where to cut in for certain parts and where to crack etc slowly without speeding it.

[brodiemccarthy]

Excellent video bro. I rewatch this every so often to refresh. That drumstick thigh separation cut instruction is money.

[XxxXxx-yhgz]

This video is fast, straight to the point, and clear enough to understand. Great video

[lacikocurek]

I really like this video, I just wish it was a little slower!
He's so confident!!

[mantobibi]

Perfect and Concise tutorial, took me just 5 minutes to part the chicken into pieces, thank you so much

[peterclemmins]

Don't listen to the haters. I appreciate videos without too much extraneous detail. Good job, two thumbs up.
