The only thing better then having a wife that's a professional chef. Is when her siblings are also professional chefs.


Brb bomb ass at home meals. Catered to by professionals. Plus they are Asian and believe in catering to guests/men. So I pretty much just go sit at the table and they bring everything to me just like waiters in a restaurant. Lmao.

My wife is Cuban, but she's very traditional. I remember we went to her mother's house for Thanksgiving, and my wife did most of the cooking. When it came time to eat she made me a plate first before everyone else. Her aunts got mad at that and said their father (my wife's grandfather) should be given his food first. My wife just told them she cooked, so her husband eats first. A few people did not like that.

Agreed if your trying to cook fast food type meals at home like burgers, fries, tacos, chicken tenders, etc. These are hard to perfect at home as well so don't taste as good.

But for real meals? Those start at $20+ per entree outside so it's worth it to cook yourself. Not only the price but I find I can just google a recipe and get it almost as good as most restaurants, if not better

[BraddlesMcGee]

bunch of oil, etc.

I tried to buy a bunch of oil at the food shop but they only had these big ass bottles that last for over a year.

Despite your 'refined' tastes for Monster Energy, Slim Jims, and menthol cigarettes, I agree. Plus leftover burgers are trash compared to fresh off the grill.



Frozen beef is trash. I've never once cooked frozen beef in my adult life and I cook semi frequently.

What was the ratio of "das it" to "aw fuark" you were feeling in that moment?

Don't ruin your meal with American cheese

This.boggles my mind when good pro chefs say they want american cheese on burgers or whatever. I remember we used to get this chitty cheese locked up. It was so plasticy and fake it would not melt. I dont even think a culinary torch would melt that nasty chit

[DuracellBunny]

I haven't had fast food/takeout in years. I buy meat from an independent butcher that can trace it back to specific farms and my wife or I cook.

It's not about price or convenience, it's about making it the way I want, knowing what I am eating and more importantly knowing what I am feeding my kid.

I am the kind of person that tells it how it is. I just don't give a fuk. Plus one of my wife's aunts has always had an intense hatred for me, so nothing changed.

Go to a fuking pantry then. You can get whole hams and ive even seen people get steaks.quit being lazy

[andrepmeet]

Are people who say this just completely out of touch with reality? Imagine I'm making just a simple burger and fries. Let me just buy a 6 pack of buns, a lb of ground beef (or pre-formed patties), bacon, an onion, lettuce/tomato, American cheese, potatoes, a bunch of oil, etc.

Then you have to save all that extra ****, either wasting space or it will just get thrown away when it goes spoiled/unused.

Then you have to spend the time to make it. Even something like making good fries at home requires both a lot of technique and a lot of oil, and both that and smash burgers will stink up and smoke up your house like crazy.

Then after you've got everything done, you have to clean/wash everything up and air out the greasy stink.

You've done all this work, cleanup, and bought all this **** and, for what..? You saved a bit of money on raw ingredients (assuming you will actually use all those ingredients instead of wasting them), but at the expense of wasting an hour worth of your time and having to store a bunch of extra ingredients that you may or may not use.

yeah. never understood it either. if people simply consider their time (literally the only thing they actually own that has concrete value) then they would be much more thoughtful about choosing whether or not to cook. It depends of course, if you are feeding many people your marginal costs decrease so it makes sense...but for a singleton? nah.

Thanks man

Thanks man

No problems

He he

This thread is the final push to get me to buy a portable induction stovetop so i can cook burgers on my balcony. i'm getting sick of my apartment smelling like vaporized tallow, but i'd rather cook higher quality ground beef at home vs getting a burger for $12 that doesnt' even have 1/3 lb of ground beef in it
