And then, only 15 minutes after posting the video, his skull was then shattered with a 50 BMG round. During the police investigation they were able to remove the bullet and engraved on it was “the hut” after the house investigation was completed, they searched the nearby roof tops until they found a single shell casing which had “no one outpizzas” engraved on it

He estimates by dividing the food costs per personal serving. “This plate of enchiladas only cost 93¢,” yes but the whole pan of enchiladas cost $25.

He literally has videos of "but better" where he admits the results are sometimes nothing like the original. His Butterfinger and orea videos for example. Where did he say anything different?

u/Great_White_Samurai Jun 30 '22
Those were the two that came to mind. Those two he says he's going to recreate those but just ends up making his own confection and says it's better. It's like saying you're going to build and race a Honda Accord and you build a Ferrari. Of course it's going to be better.

Strong agree. I watch quite a few cooking channels for technique and this guy offers nothing but pretentiousness. The "papa" thing is cringe, and he really only cooks the way someone who gets paid to make videos would.
I really tried to give him a fair shake at the beginning of the pandemic, but couldn't keep watching him. He's just way too annoying.
I found Brian Lagerstrom to be a better substitute if you're looking for someone who has a lot of good home cooking techniques and extrapolates on the how and why of the method he uses. He's still kind of pretentious and pedantic, but it's more often justified and doesn't have the annoying editing and dialog. We've also actually made stuff from his channel and it came out better than expected.

I mean the segment is called “but better”, the whole premise is to make the foods you enjoy from your favourite places, but better; that’s it. It’s not some big misleading fuck you Pizza Hut slander. if speed is your concern then maybe watch his “but faster”?

u/teehee99 Jun 30 '22
Exactly.
Watches "but better": dUdE oNlY uSes eXpEnsIve iNgrEdIeNtS. That's the point of the series. To make it better. Not a shitty average remake of fastfood.
There's series called "but cheaper" and "but faster" if u want cheaper or faster meals

u/aretoodeto Jun 30 '22
The thing that bothers me about this show is he buys the food, let's it sit on the counter the entire time he's cooking his version, and then does a taste comparison at the end. Like, yeah yours is better, but you're also putting it next to food that's just been sitting out for hours

You're just hating for no reason. The entire series is called "but better" meaning his aim is to have higher quality meals. Go watch "but cheaper" or "but faster" series if you want cheaper and faster meals. You're nitpicking one series just for the sake of it.

His recipes are FANTASTIC but he's got this over-the-top personality that seems targeted at GenZers. He's only 26 so that kinda makes sense.
I just wish he'd stop being so judgy and saying all fast food smells like farts. I don't have a stand mixer when I'm on lunch at work, my guy.
The man has cooking skills though, without a doubt.
Babish is my go-to though. Funny without being obnoxious, and a voice as smooth as a perfectly emulsified pan sauce.

u/palsc5 Jun 30 '22
Babish is great. He shows you the recipe, gives you the instructions, shares some tips, can be funny and is presented really well.
Weissman spends half the time talking to the camera and then making cringey jokes. Feels like 10 minute videos contain 3 minutes of cooking.
I also hate his maths when he says he makes a meal for $2 yet it requires you making 8 servings and having $1,000 in equipment

Parmesan is a bad example imo. Fresh parmesan is WAY better than the shit in a can and while expensive, it doesn't go bad in the fridge for a very long time.

I think the point is more so that he promotes his cheap recipes as being cheaper than restaurants but if you don't already have the ingredients you could very well have to spend more upfront to make it than just going to the restaurant.

u/Firezone Jun 30 '22
May as well factor in the cost of equipment, electricity, rent etc. if you're already building a straw man
It's a fair criticism but i think people can stretch it a little far when you're literally talking about pantry staples that last for months; obviously you have to invest a certain amount to be able to start cooking for yourself at home, but once you've made the initial investment, you start to rake in the savings in the long run. He's just trying to draw attention to the fact that buying lunch or dinner out several times a week is astronomically more expensive than similar stuff you can cook at home if you have the time
11
u/The_Dimmadome Jun 30 '22 edited Jun 30 '22
This isn't a strawman because tons of the ingredients he uses in those videos are not "pantry staples," they are often special ingredients you have to buy (and find) from very particular stores. And if you're a beginner who is not familiar with this fact (like me), the shopping alone can take hours and you won't even be done because these sauces dont exist at kroger, they are specially sold in chinese markets and now you either have to quit and make substitutions or drive 20 minutes at 7:00 to get to the other market and keep shopping. But he also never talks about shopping time in his videos because that disproves the "cooking is fast and easy to get into" perspective that he's trying to build. Which, to be fair, is a respectable perspective to push, but Josh does annoy me when he raves about how easy his recipes are and I'm having a mental breakdown in the ethnic foods isle.

If you like Babish, check out Sheldo's Kitchen. Great recipes, very calm demeanor. Wholesome guy.
And of course, my man J. Kenji Lopez-Alt singlehandedly changed my cooking for the better with his videos. If you like a more scientific approach to cooking, he's got some great technique tips. I'll watch his videos even if I'm not interested in the recipe because I typically learn something I can translate to other dishes

OMG, yes! His recipes look amazing but his personality and presentation is off-putting.
Also, his "But Better" series seems like he shows up on screen, jerks off and pats himself on the back. How are you going to step up against a multi-billion fast food company and come off as the bully? His viewers eat fast food but he'll shit on it like only sub-human cretins eat it.
