4 Million Subscriber Special: American Vs. Full English Breakfast

They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, which if you ask me is a little hard to figure out. One thing we can figure out is which breakfast is the best, is it the full English breakfast or is it the American breakfast? Both are great but there can only really be one true winner, let's find out.

I had no idea you could make beans from scratch. I thought they grew inside the Heinz tins on the bean tree.

what i've learnt from american movies is that breakfast is shoving toast in your mouth and running out the door despite the hearty meal laid out on the table

I was riding the tube once as a young backpacker passin through London and struck up a conversation with a random guy. Somehow the topic was breakfast, specifically a Full English. He told me that perhaps the most crucial element to a properly made Full English is the sausage wall. He said a proper full english needs to have a sausage wall which prevents the beans from permeating onto the other ingredients and allows for proper bean distribution.

He spoke about it as if it were the word of God.

I think about him more than I should.

As an Englishman i love the American style breakfast. The pancakes and maple syrup add a sweetness the English breakfast lacks. Both are equally delicious:)

I’m British and have never known anyone to make their own baked beans, mad effort!

For everyone in the UK, beans come straight out of the tin 😂

[gozerthegozarian]

Making your own baked beans from scratch when no British person has done so in the last 60 years is a next level flex.

[johnpritchett]

Honestly, as an English person this looks awesome. But I don’t think any of us would actually use anything else other than Heinz beans

[jimorr]

The full American breakfast varies by region. In the south it would include biscuits and sausage gravy. In the eastern mid Atlantic it would include scrapple (ugh). In California avocado. In Texas chilli peppers in any and everything. Etc.

[andrewwoodman]

No British person ever has made their own beans. Ever. (But I'm fascinated to see how you did it)

My girlfriend and I broke up recently and she ended up with the stand mixer. Then I see Josh giving away FREE mixers and it felt like the universe was only twisting the knife on my unfortunate situation. Today though, I was walking around the thrift store and no joke, found a Kitchen Aid stand mixer for only $30! All it needed was the mixing attachments. I could hear Papa Josh’s beautiful falsetto voice, singing like a choir of angels, when I saw the little mixer man sitting by himself on the shelf.

[CHEFPKR]

Mad respect, Josh. Man, I still remember you celebrating 500k with popeyes chicken sandwich. Big congrats!

[RustBrand]

The American breakfast can be pinned down but also know there’s LOADS of different ways to eat breakfast depending on where you are in the US. For example in the south, Grits are a integral part of breakfast, biscuits and gravy, to name a few

[VikingWlf]

PSA as much as we all absolutely love Josh and his cooking please remember, using any beans in a full English that are not Heinz is considered treason to the empire and grounds for permanent exile

[TechByMattB]

10:20 Of course Josh would have a toaster with a touch screen lol.

[Kt-cnrq]

Every British/Aussie: Heinz Baked beans.
Josh: Makes from scratch.

I thought both brekkies looked equally yummy delicious. The pancakes looked super fluffy, which won me over. I used to crave McDonalds Big Breakfasts when growing up in the UK. As an adult in the US, Ive searched YouTube trying to find the tastiest, Full English or Irish breakfast recipes, and just like Golden Wonder crisps it will be a lost childhood memory. Nostalgia is a powerful thing. I’m inspired to make baked beans from scratch. I’m very fluent with instant pots (baked beans) and air frying (bacon) I feel I can make a delicious and quick full breakfast. Thank you, this video was inspiring.

[memoryfoam]

Englishman here: I've literally never seen anybody over here make their own beans we all use canned

[Bookofwords]

respect for making your own baked beans, we Brits tend to just whip out the can of Heinz beans lmao

[alyssadestefano]

Joshua: *sarcastically* "there's nothing better than adding tree sap on my scrambled eggs..."
Me, a Canadian: *quietly continues to willing put maple syrup on my eggs*

[amp_it_up_]

The great thing about a Canadian breakfast is that it 's basically a combination of both English and American. PLUS ham. PLUS pork paté to eat on the toast. And the bean recipe also has maple syrup and beer in it.
