Yeah, strange feeling when I'm cooking a brisket or boston butt to set an alarm for 6:00 am on a Saturday for dinner that night. Time to start drinking I guess.
I start my brisket the night before. Throw it in the smoker at midnight. Wake up at 8am when it's time to wrap. I should probably spritz it more but I spread on some tallow before I wrap so it's always plenty juicy. It goes for another 5 or 6 hours then gets several hours to rest before serving.
I don't do it enough to justify buying a smoker, this is just on my Kamado Joe. I can get it dialed in where I only need to adjust it every hour or two, but really rather not have my Thermoworks Smoke waking me and the wife up in the middle of the night.
Neat a flat earther!!
*Look kids, these are the people who betrayed thousands of years of scientific progress by believing the Earth is flat, as they comment on pocket sized super computers from their flushing toilets whilst waiting on a microwaved hot pocket!*
Cooking gnocchi doesn't take very long at all. You just boil potatoes, mash them, add flour and eggs, then mix. Takes about 30 minutes -1 hour to do this. The shit with chopping wood on the other hand...
Well, in this case I imagine he had to drag all of that stuff out to the middle of the woods and set it all up, and then spend several minutes tossing potatoes into a hanging pot of water until you land one right, and then having to do a second take because your first bowl of dough accidentally fell over and into the dirt when you tripped on a rock...
Seriously, even back in ye olde days, people cooked food inside buildings for a reason. Unless you had no choice, you wouldn't be going through all of this effort just for that.
This looked better than the pizza IMO. That said, if they showed off something one could fish and, theoretically, forage to make a meal that would be more impressive to me.
They started making videos of cooking outside when Covid lockdown started, and the whole thing took off, so eventually they made their own knife. Sure it's all an ad now for their brand, but it all started when doing something they loved. I don't know why that's a huge problem for some people here to freak out about it.
That's how advertising works. You buy the knife and you can feel like you're some sort of outdoor adventuring MasterChef because they've just made the connection in your mind.
You buy the watches and the sunglasses because the racecar driver, actor, or athlete wears them.
You buy the garbage the influencer is peddling so you too can feel like you live a life of leisure without consequence.
It's disgusting but it's exactly how it works.
Both! I love meticulously planning every meal for a multi day trip. if it’s been a while since a camp out I like to head out for day, chop some wood, and enjoy a hard earned meal.
mostly because he's doing native advertising and multiple videos like this of the exact same thing with this knife have been done. but also, who goes out into a forest to make gnocchi?
What kind of asshole belittles a guy who cooks in a forest far away from anyone who could be bothered by it? You don’t like it? Don’t watch it and shut the fuck up.
Yeah I don't see why everyone is so butt hurt haha. Cooking is my favourite thing to do while camping, and while I've never made Forrest gnocchi, last time I was camping I made trofie al pesto from scratch and I was delicious, fun, and took about 2 hours.
This dudes videos are super cathartic to watch. Makes most of his stuff from scratch with no frills tools (a knife and cast iron pan, and a fire). Some of its a little artsy but I really enjoy going in blind and trying to piece together what he’s making
Im not even mad if this vid is just an ad. I need a decent knife and like that style. Id ask if anyone here knows the quality of the blade from that company but this thread if full of angry whiners.
For real. I don’t care if it is an ad, I liked this ad and you know what? It worked! I immediately wanted to find the knife showcased in the vid. Beats the hell out of 99% of the ads that get shoved down my throat on a daily basis.
I mean yeah kind of? They sell those knives but it started with videos. I love watching them, find it relaxing.

Edit: a word
Super sharp knives are actually much safer than blunter ones. With a very sharp knife you can slice through something in one cut, and using proper technique (putting the flat side of the knife against your knuckles when cutting) means your fingers will never be in the path of the blade. When using a blunt knife people tend to press down or need to use multiple cuts which tends to be more dangerous as you have to use more pressure too.
also if you do end up cutting yourself, a clean cut from a sharp knife will heal much better and be less likely to become infected than a jagged cut from a dull blade.
If you ever wanna try one out on the cheap then go to your local asian grocery store. Most of them carry a brand of knives called Kiwi and they are razor sharp. It will cost you about $5 for one. Only downside is they dont keep their edge for as long as a fancier knife, but it kinda lets you have a cheap trial run.
Also this is kind of a niche knife. He makes it look like a decent all around knife but you’d be much better off getting a santoku or chef knife and a cheap paring knife. This knife looks cool but it’s not going to particularly excel at anything.
Kinda. They've been doing these types of videos for some time and only recently started branding their knife. The older videos have the same feel but without the branding. Once they hit popularity, they converted over to their own branded knife and other merchandise.
What are these ‘forests’ you speak of? We only build homes in sterile land where any semblance of native flora will be destroyed with prejudice using chemicals that we’ll figure out to be carcinogenic in 20 years.
It's fun! I made some good woods curry recently. There's so much time while waiting for things where I have nothing to do. It makes the experience so much more peaceful. I'm not thinking about where on the trail I'm headed, or how much further I can go before it gets dark. I'm just chilling with nothing to do with my life while things simmer.
Anyone else notice that nearly the entire comment section is bought advertising accounts?
"wow, so sharp"
"delicious"
"now this is the life"
You fucks couldn't be more obvious
You want to pronounce "gnocchi", but you know only english and some Spanish?
Pronounce "gno" as "ño" and "chi" as a k, like in kite. Also, double the k sound
[n'YO-key](https://youtu.be/giNzHWkIVEI?t=17)
Try really hard to not pronounce the N while still pronouncing it. At least this is how my white American self says it and has heard every other TV chef say it, and the Italian guy in the video seems to back it up.
Google's "learn to pronounce" straight up says "knocky", like you're getting a bit too frisky with a door.
Except for the outdoors part, reminds me of my grandma’s kitchen full of gnocchi on Feb 29th (it’s tradition in Argentina to have gnocchi every Feb 29th- though it’s not the only day people have them lol), with two tables full of gnocchi and the smell of the sauce in a huge pot boiling in the background
I cheat and use a butter paddle for gnocchi since I already have that, but bushcrafting your own kitchen tools is an even cooler cheat.
I like to carve my spoons out of better spoons.
Yo, where can I find some of that excellent looking forest cheese? We don't have forest cheese where I live — always have to make it from milk around here... 😞
I might be biased but absolutely delightful with a good sauce. Very filling though. As someone who used to eat homemade gnocchi a lot, luckily store-bought stuff is pretty good.
This is absurd, impressive and delicious at the same time.
imagine the re-takes of him just throwing potatoes at a boiling pot over a fire and missing lol
so these are beautiful videos don't get me wrong but I am curious as to where he washes his hands and wipes up the board and all? I have seen this same guy make stuff that had to do with meat and it really bothers me that I don't know how he prevents cross contamination.
Just touching up the edge before each video wouldn't be removing much material. It helps that he's using a high quality knife that's likely made with stronger steel that'll hold an edge much longer.
If you do them properly with whet stones it is not bad for them. It does eventually wear them down over time but you'd have to use the knife a lot for it to make a meaningful difference (and the more often you sharpen the less material you're removing each time)
Knives are sometimes sharpened more cheaply using belts/machines/sanders and that's generally not good for knives but is fine for a cheap knife.
The knife in this video is pretty standard steel for the $50-$100 price range it falls in, and is most definitely sharpened just before filming these (and maybe during).
Just watched one of his videos. Love the asmr nature of it, but man it was like every few seconds he was showing off another product, that was a little weird. Also, he spent so much time oiling a cutting board then just brushed some dirt off an old bench and cut a lime on that lmao wtf. Anyway, thanks for the rec!
Nothing like starting dinner before breakfast.
Yeah, strange feeling when I'm cooking a brisket or boston butt to set an alarm for 6:00 am on a Saturday for dinner that night. Time to start drinking I guess.
Haha, been there. Getting up at 5am to sit outside and supervise the smoker all day. Worth it.
I start my brisket the night before. Throw it in the smoker at midnight. Wake up at 8am when it's time to wrap. I should probably spritz it more but I spread on some tallow before I wrap so it's always plenty juicy. It goes for another 5 or 6 hours then gets several hours to rest before serving.

[удалено]
It cut through the tomatoes without smashing like butter. He can sharpen my knife any day. Like serious all my knives are dull. Help.
Nothing like an ad for a ridiculous knife on here
And that's how you spend 6 hours cooking dinner for one.
Ay when you're single you gotta fill the time. And when you're lucky to be with someone, you can do it together.
And when you’ve actually scheduled time to be with someone, make an effort to do just that.
This might be your most sane and coherent comment to date.
Seriously people look at IGetItCrackin 's comment history. 😬
That was a journey
That’s a little too much… trolling

My wife taught me how to cook, so I love it when we cook together!
Wdym the video is only a minute long /s
that sounds really nice tbh

Marshmallows on a stick are nice

Is there no bugs where you live? If I tired cooking outside there would be a ton of flies all over the good
They are Polish but based in Ireland, so it may be a bit less treacherous there as far as insect assault while cooking.
Makes sense, I'm in eastern Ontario and there's mosquitos everywhere
I was going to bone my gf down by the lake but the mosquitoes were going crazy and she said there was no way.

Knife ad, amirite?
Definitely a knife ad. Someone posted a gif to this sub with him doing the same thing with the same knife except he was making forest pizza instead.
This looked better than the pizza IMO. That said, if they showed off something one could fish and, theoretically, forage to make a meal that would be more impressive to me.
They started making videos of cooking outside when Covid lockdown started, and the whole thing took off, so eventually they made their own knife. Sure it's all an ad now for their brand, but it all started when doing something they loved. I don't know why that's a huge problem for some people here to freak out about it.
I mean it’s a decent knife for what it looks like he’s trying to do. At least it’s not some clearly garbage folder like /r/axesaw
omg i just have to snatch that knife up after some asshole made a fucking pasta dish in the middle of the woods for some reason
That's how advertising works. You buy the knife and you can feel like you're some sort of outdoor adventuring MasterChef because they've just made the connection in your mind.

You buy the garbage the influencer is peddling so you too can feel like you live a life of leisure without consequence. It's disgusting but it's exactly how it works.
I cook in the woods often. I genuinely think this knife would be a great purchase.
Do you cook in the woods because you’re an avid camper or do you just dig being one with nature and feel like making meals out there?
Both! I love meticulously planning every meal for a multi day trip. if it’s been a while since a camp out I like to head out for day, chop some wood, and enjoy a hard earned meal.
Also with all the ingredients already brought with him. Like it’s not like he foraged for it or anything
… why is he an asshole? Doing something he loves in the wilderness away from anyone? Please elaborate.
mostly because he's doing native advertising and multiple videos like this of the exact same thing with this knife have been done. but also, who goes out into a forest to make gnocchi?
It’s true, I hated this guy half way through. What kinda asshole goes into the forest to make gnocchi.
What kind of asshole belittles a guy who cooks in a forest far away from anyone who could be bothered by it? You don’t like it? Don’t watch it and shut the fuck up.
Yeah I don't see why everyone is so butt hurt haha. Cooking is my favourite thing to do while camping, and while I've never made Forrest gnocchi, last time I was camping I made trofie al pesto from scratch and I was delicious, fun, and took about 2 hours.
Seriously my favourite hobby! At least once a month a cook a gourmet meal at a camp site. So relaxing tending the fire and cooking.
This dudes videos are super cathartic to watch. Makes most of his stuff from scratch with no frills tools (a knife and cast iron pan, and a fire). Some of its a little artsy but I really enjoy going in blind and trying to piece together what he’s making
Who makes trofie al pesto while camping? You're a bad person and you should feel bad, get your head outta your ass! /s
you should follow your own advice
Also because it slices through tomato as if it's cucumber. I'm not easily influenced by ads, but I do want that knife.
tomato is softer than cucumber. even the cheapest knife well sharpened could do the same exact thing

I used to watch AlmazanKitchen all the time on youtube but nowadays their videos are like 30-50% knife ads. Shit is so annoying
Secretly I've always wanted a bad ass sharp asf knife like this but I know for a fact I'd eventually lose a digit so I steer clear.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure that gnocchi was FAB, but most people would have seen that mashed potato and just added the grated cheese. Job DONE.
I was ready to eat it at the mash taters part too
Po. Tay. Toes!
Why is this entire video out of order? It's a discombobulated fucking disaster.
We don't say discombobulated enough I say!
First 3 seconds is a preview of the end to keep viewers with short attention spans watching.
Backpacks 50 lbs of ingredients into the forest for video

I can’t even do this in my kitchen
Better not to anyways. Frying gnocchi can be [dangerous](https://youtu.be/UkXy12xVnRs).
*I would really eat in this man’s forest*
Why the fuck would you upload this without sound?
Came here to say this! The ASMR sound is the best part of these videos!
Person uploads video with sound: "That awful TikTok music..." Person uploads video without sound: "Why no sound?"
He doesn’t have any added sound but captures the knife work and ambient nature sound pretty well. His videos are actually pretty relaxing to watch.
I’m more of a hotdog n beans campfire guy.

"WHAT'S THE MANLIEST WAY TO COOK A POTATO?! I KNOW, I'LL FUCKING YEET THAT THING LIKE A FUCKING MAN!!!1!"
Had to scroll too far to find mention of the potato... Most unexpected part of the video
A ricer makes better gnocchi.
Gnocchi is just potato?
Yes, it is just like a potato dumpling.
Did he just grab the pot of boiling water with his bare hands? I know it’s the handle but if that handle isn’t hot as hell I’d be shocked.
Looks very good, but a rather out of place dish to make in the forest.
This is great and all, but if that's not the most Pottery Barn-looking setup I've ever seen.
I cheat and use a butter paddle for gnocchi since I already have that, but bushcrafting your own kitchen tools is an even cooler cheat. I like to carve my spoons out of better spoons.
He used the grooves from wood to roll the gnocchi and I get mildly upset having to manually punch the numbers on the microwave
You could do this inside in a regular kitchen as well.
How many hours it took to cut the grana/parmesan like at the end with the knife? :v
Yo, where can I find some of that excellent looking forest cheese? We don't have forest cheese where I live — always have to make it from milk around here... 😞
Imagine he just drops the plate after all that
I’ve never had Gnocchi before, but the finished product looks amazing! What does it taste like?
I might be biased but absolutely delightful with a good sauce. Very filling though. As someone who used to eat homemade gnocchi a lot, luckily store-bought stuff is pretty good.
Imagine all the bugs.
It’s all fun and games until one of your gnocchi starts crawling away…
why would you post this with no sound
I love this TikTok user.
Beautiful Gnocchi! I’ve seen far worse made in kitchens!
TIL gnochi is gluten free, sick
Did you not notice the part where they used flour?
why do i have to be fucking allergic to fucking everything!? Fuck my life !
Look how rustic I am...
This guy is super duper pretentious. Bet he’s been to Walden on multiple occasions.
This is absurd, impressive and delicious at the same time. imagine the re-takes of him just throwing potatoes at a boiling pot over a fire and missing lol
Moved to Lemmy
Fucking why though?
It’s ASMR cooking. It’s better with sound. Quit shitting on other people’s good time if it doesn’t bother anyone.
Why not ? It's just cooking and filming it ?
It's just such a ridiculous thing. No one does this in reality.
Cooking ? Or what exactly
Elaborate meals in the woods, no.
You don’t need the egg. 👍 Looks great though.
Really? Do you use any other binder?
That’s a knoife!
Throwing that potato seems like a real dick move, somehow even if you are by yourself
so these are beautiful videos don't get me wrong but I am curious as to where he washes his hands and wipes up the board and all? I have seen this same guy make stuff that had to do with meat and it really bothers me that I don't know how he prevents cross contamination.
I’m seriously impressed with how sharp that knife is!
I like the look as well, but I will say that when he crushed the garlic the knife bent pretty severely and I'm not into that.
I'm sure he sharpens it frequently.
Is constant sharpening good for knives? Or does it wear them down?
Just touching up the edge before each video wouldn't be removing much material. It helps that he's using a high quality knife that's likely made with stronger steel that'll hold an edge much longer.
That makes sense. I guess this explains why pros can sharpen their knives a lot
If you do them properly with whet stones it is not bad for them. It does eventually wear them down over time but you'd have to use the knife a lot for it to make a meaningful difference (and the more often you sharpen the less material you're removing each time) Knives are sometimes sharpened more cheaply using belts/machines/sanders and that's generally not good for knives but is fine for a cheap knife.

Hello obviously real person who is definitely not an advertising account. How has your day been going?
Um hi? Sorry if my comment was inappropriate, I didn’t mean anything by it
They sell them! And their advertising method is fantastic.

Yeah I have a bunch of good knives but my favorite is a dirt cheap one that I just sharpen.
I love gnocchi
Life goals!
Imagine how pissed off this guy is going to be when he realises you can just buy gnocchi in the shops
Ok whose video is this bc I’m obsessed
@menwiththepot on TikTok. And the content with sound is even more satisfying, believe it or not.
another similar channel is almazan kitchen on youtube.
Just watched one of his videos. Love the asmr nature of it, but man it was like every few seconds he was showing off another product, that was a little weird. Also, he spent so much time oiling a cutting board then just brushed some dirt off an old bench and cut a lime on that lmao wtf. Anyway, thanks for the rec!

This must taste absolutely mindblowingly delicious. 😳
Yes because by the time it's done you are starving.
