Hey Joshua, you should start a series called "But Simple" where you simplify extravagant dishes so regular home cooks can make them at home without spending the entire day in the kitchen. Love your stuff, keep it up!
I would consider this "but better" bc sure overall the price can be cheaper, but it's balanced out by the amount of time one needs to take to make the recipe (even just the sausage itself) let alone the specific "optional" instruments listed. I think time needs to be included on "cheaper" because it's not just money that goes into cooking but also time/patience
Imagine doing this in a batch and freezing.... It's fine where it is. Work smarter, not harder. Also consider hotdogs are made by the billion already and so are buns there's. Absolutely fuck all stopping them not filling it up with chemical bullshit. Using spices like he does here, they just don't because capitalists are greedy c**ts

bro why do I keep seeing ppl hating or being overly critical, bro is just vibing making cheap hotdogs but as gourmet as possible. Its up to you how to use the knowledge he gives you. he doesn't have to show you how to make a hot dog on a grill. But most don't know how to make hotdogs from scratch. the way I see it, he gave you more knowledge than you needed, but i still see ppl spreading negativity bc they'd rather see something they've already seen before. It's crazy to me no cap
After watching most of your videos, I started asking for certain appliances for Christmas present and Birthday. Thank you because I got what I wanted. I received a stand mixer for Christmas (2022) but it's not Kitchen Aid. I asked for a Meat Grinder for my Birthday (March 31 2023) & I am waiting for it as I type (this after 3 hours on the phone yesterday with Amazon Canada) I cannot wait to make this. I am excited! Both appliances were fairly inexpensive. I make my own bread, buns, yogurt, butter etc. and now I can really kick things up a couple more notches. Thank you Josh for all your hard work of planning, testing and executing each recipe for us all. This is definitely cheaper and healthier! Don't listen to the haters - they don't know because they haven't tried to research amazon or other stores. OH! I asked for a pasta maker for Mother's Day too :)
He’s looking back on his life and regretting not putting mayo on every hotdog he’s ever eaten. While also having the best dog of his life. It’s beautiful
Hey Josh, I just wanna thank you for creating your videos, you've been one of my inspiration throughout my cooking life, as a student chef in college rn, your videos have been a very big help!
@@mackal and as somebody from New England now in the midwest, its nice to see a simple recipe for them because I can't buy them here and well..... there is no substitution lol
@@larryarcher8533 Try near the seafood. I was discussing them with someone that lives outside of NE when I learned about this being a thing and he said they sell them with the seafood where he lives :P
Kendrick was looking like he was having an existential crisis over that dog at the end and like he wasn’t even mad about it. Hey, you might get drug onscreen, but there’s free food, and it’s incredible.
There are also non intestine casings made of collagen that are cheep, easy to source online (look for sausage casings, they should come up), and last approximately forever if kept dry. Hand grinders are cheap and effective. Just remember to keep the meat cold; almost but not quite frozen is best. And, finally, a zip top bag with either a wide piping tip or, if not, a clean (preferably new and unused) syringe with the top cut off can be used to fill the sausages, albeit slowly enough you may want to cut the recipe down to a 10-15 batch. You could actually buy the same amount of meat, grind it all, split it into batches and make other types of sausage or some amazing burger meat with the rest. If the meat you bought came to the store never frozen, you can split the ground meat up and freeze it in a size convenient for you (most people like 1 lbs portions if they have multiple people to feed). If you got pre-frozen meat, or the store got it frozen and thawed it, cook the meat into the dish you want before freezing. I used to work at a butcher shop and actually got certified as a butcher here in the USA. I loved helping customers when they came in, especially those who wanted to try things like this but just didn’t have the kind of money to buy all the special equipment. So, all these ideas are tried and tested. Good luck!
Yo, this is a great way to use up my leftover sheep intestines, Prague seasoning #2, hotdog emulsifying powder, sausage stuffing attachment and meat grinder. Thanks!
You made a cheap food sound expensive, then made the cheap food expensive and made it sound cheap. I'm honestly impressed. The food looks pretty though
This was more a "But Better" imo. I mean it's cheaper if you don't count your time plus about 2000 bucks of equipment. Snarky comments aside, I love cooking, I will definately try this out!
And it's only cheaper if you are making an industrial quantity of hot dogs. The video was fun and interesting to watch but no one's going to make this.
Joshua's but better or but faster for me personally were never about copying everysingle step, they are great way to learn to cook but whenever i don't have something thats being used in his videos, i just do with what i have it still works most of the times and the quality still remains higher then getting it from the fast food places
Yeah I came here to see if they would save money but this is definitely not for the time cruncher or penny pincher. I’m about to unsubscribe here in a minute if it doesn’t improve and actually does what the title suggest.
@@venom74799 He's making hotdogs...what could he possibly do to speed up the sausage-making process? Same with the buns. Just buy hotdogs from the store of you're that bothered, they're not that expensive.
I have no doubt this tastes amazing, it looks fantastic. However, I have nowhere near the time or energy to do this entire thing from start to finish. I'll just pay the extra $0.50 and go to Costco lol 😅
I completely agree, Josh does get a little overboard with these, but hey! That's why we watch him, isn't it? I mean, if you have access to a good bakery and butchers (or are fine with whatever your local store has), you can cut down the prep time by like 90%.
@@xyrthor 💯 I love these because I trust Josh's judgment and while some things I will never make myself, I like knowing what the premium standard is so I can make informed choices when I buy things like sausages or bread in the store.
It was great seeing you on Friday. It seemed rushed but that's understandable. I'm glad I had my book for you to sign and I hope you weren't overworked. 😁✌
This used to be about teaching people how to cook, but now Josh just dunks on his viewers, every single video is something next level that nobody can make at home without a professional kitchen
I love that, in order to make this the way Josh did, you have to count on Barter with a butcher, as well as hundreds of dollars in equipment. Oh, and you have to make 80+ hot dogs to get the price just right. Fun to watch, though, lol.
It's not that expensive really. It's $400.... like... how much is your iPhone or android smart phone? How much is your car? How much is your mortgage? Or rent payment? Like... honestly, put into perspective of all of the things we buy, it isn't that much money. Especially considering that it's a one time purchase, not like a car or a phone or laptop or iPad etc. That is VERY expensive and we all pay extra in interest for all of these things. And your complaining about a kitchenaid that's a little less than a flat screen TV? That most of us have multiple of.... I mean... I do understand, it's NOT cheap. But, considering everything else out for sale on thr market right now, I mean the God dang thing is cheaper an an xbox!!! Come on people. It's not thay expensive!!! You pay more for a PS5! Etc. For reals.... like.... perspective! That is all.
@@alexblanco7494 you don't. You freeze them and then eat a few at a time :) though, I will say, even over a year I do NOT eat 80+ hot dogs a year. So, point well made!
I doubt I'll ever make my own hotdogs from scratch but I'm glad a straightforward tutorial like this exists in case I ever get the urge to go big and buy a grinder with attachments. Good stuff.
$30 meat grinder from harbor freight. Ive done a few batches of buy one get one free sale chuck, pork shoulder, and chicken. It paid for itself within one 15 lb batch compared to pre ground. Vacuum sealed and froze it, stocks me up for weeks to months at a time. Great value.
I remember Aramark selling hot dogs for $1 at the Royals game. The hot dogs were rotten and the buns were moldy. They're statement after the game stated, "What do you expect for $1?" I expect what you made Josh!
I regularly get hot dogs from Sheetz. They’re $1 each for 2. They’re a little small, but damn if they don’t hit the “I want fast food hotdogs and pay very little” feeling.
@@johnbuscher unfortunately some people don't have a Sheetz or even know what that is. I'm sad for those people because Sheetz prices really can't be beat 🙏🙏
Turns out the reason we pay for hot dogs is the price of the equipment and expertise to make them NOT the ingredients. I love cooking at home but I'm not gonna be making my own sausage lol.
I'm a meat cutter at Publix (grocery store in S.E. US) we will grind pork shoulder and chuck roast and any other raw meat we sell at no cost if you ask. I'm sure many grocery stores will do it for you. Side note if you apply the typical multiplier of 3x for business expenses most of the food service industry uses, your "but cheaper" comes up to nearly $6. So it makes sense for a business to have to charge $6
I mean.... You spend a couple of hours, and you get, easily, a few months, to a year's worth of hot dogs... Or a few summer party's worth. Being realistic, if you've already got the grinder out, you could, feasibly, take a day, and have all the cased, meaty goodness you could ever need, for that same span...
Josh, please hear me out. I love to cook just as much as I love to eat good food. I've even started making some videos of my own, in a different style, to share my food with the world. Please try this. The absolute best way to cook a hot dog is to deep fry it! Trust me. It only works with natural casing hot dogs but the snap is absolutely unreal. Please, I know you have leftover dogs. Do it!
Anything bought in massive bulk - if bulk enough - will always be cheaper than what you usually buy for a family serving. This series is inherently flawed... and impossible for the average home cook to replicate, I might add.

I think there should be a series for college students who only really have access to the mini-fridge and microwave in their dorms. I didn't have access to a full kitchen until my senior year of college. Edit: To make it clear, my school also didn't have a food court. You were completely on your own for food.
I mean, what people living in a dorm even have a cutting board and a knife? And if for some reason you do, you have to awkwardly cut on your desk. You don’t have spices, and you don’t have room for much of a pantry or condiments. And based on how Josh does videos, you’ll be given recipes with ingredients you’ll use once or twice before you hit the expiration date. And do you want those things crowding your fridge or pantry space when you have so little in the first place? I support the idea out of pure absurdity and how much it will crush Josh’s soul to have a microwave and mini fridge as his only appliance options. But if we’re being realistic, just eat your food court and your ramen and be happy.

@@seanmatthewking Yeah um…we didn't have a food court either so there goes that. My school owned a "cafe" that didn't serve full meals and it was a train ride away. And to answer your questions, yes actually. You do awkwardly make your food at your desk. Maybe not the microwave as his only appliance but to use things that someone would have in a dorm. Hell, I even used an iron and tin foil to make a quesadilla before and it was probably one of the best cheap meals I've had. No, I didn't have a cutting board but I did have a knife and a plate to cut things with. As far as space, I had my bed lofted for the majority of my time living there so storage wasn't really an issue as far as things like spices and ingredients that don't expire fast. As for other things, I got everything in 1-3 serving sizes so nothing ever went bad. Again, about space, you can make it work. I dormed with 3 people and shared a bedroom. You can find ways to maximize space. You get really crafty with how you do things in college when you don't have any other options. Nothing stopped me from being able to make full meals with what little I had to work with. It's all about creativity. Edit: also, to your comment about ramen, yeah, no. I tried that along with a lot of other instant food my freshman year then ended up with high cholesterol and heart problems fairly fast. I didn't have a choice but to eat full and healthier meals. Again, when there's no option, you make it work. 2nd Edit: last thing, when I transferred schools to one that had a kitchen (still no food court) for the people in the dorm to use, it was two refrigerators for ~450 people to use so… yeah
@ I have learned to make S O many things in the microwave, and while I do prefer full kitchens, you just can't help but make do. Or... "Settle" and be happy 👀 have nothing and be happy... Sounds familiar. Ew.
He wouldn't be able to do it bc he's so out of touch with broke people. The prices in his But Cheaper videos are always kinda sketchy and he makes recipes for people with loads of free time.
The reality is is this will come to about 10$ a serving for like 4 servings and you end up with about 50$ ingredients you'll never use ever again. Still cool tho but definitely not cheaper.
that's half of his vids lately, his recipes are becoming even less practical over time. it's why i go to other creators for actual recipes I plan on making
J Kenji Lopez Alt, during the pandemic he started posting almost daily gopro videos of what he cooked for his family. An absolute treasure trove of cooking knowledge
One day you should have a well known chef be a guest. Put him in the cupboard and open it and start talking about a recipe. After you're done, the POV changes from the chefs POV to you just talking to him while he's in the cupboard. I think that would be absolutely brilliant.
Wrap your head around this… it’s for the algorithm/views! No way! Crazy right? He rounded down so that he would (via the video) be more successful! I know this is hard for some people to come to on their own, but someday I believe you will be able to. @@thesomethingandsomething9823
That while for me might be the entire life though. Videos like these are a reminder why i'm not into cooking that much, lol. No one has time for this unless cooking is a hobby.
@@DoctorStrange01 Very true! I can only even attempt his recipes on a Friday afternoon when I know I'm going to have a weekend where I can have the time to finish these recipes XD
This one was more of a "but better" than cheaper. The idea with making the buns is good tho and indeed simple and can be cheap, same with the pickled stuff and onions. The dog itself, not so much. I'd honestly like you to create a series where you go in a store and buy cheap brands and make fancy dishes with those.
Yeah having a local butcher or carniceria offer you some of these perks (grinding the meat even) makes part of this possible. As of the meat casing, that may be trickier outside of the Kitchen Aid add on.
The fact that the ONLY method of cooking hot dogs that Josh said not to do is boil them, indicates that he's more okay with microwaved hot dogs than he is boiled
Joshua made an independence day for the grilling feast about hot dogs, hamburgers, and chicken with some of his friends who were excited about the fireworks
The only thing that gets me about this series is that it’s but cheaper, and he typically uses his most expensive tools for the *flex*, hence defeating the purpose of “but cheaper.” No big deal tho, everything always looks delicious and I would pay insane amounts of money to eat something made by chef 👨🍳 joshie
The bun recipe is sooo good though. Thats why im subscribed. Im not spending like 130$ on ingredients equipment and 4 -6 hours of time to make hot dogs. Making bread though perfect. Grilled oniones yes
Why so many losers commenting on the time and money, You can obviously buy some of the stuff at a butcher, baker, or even grocery store and make something very delicious. He just likes to show to extremes cause he is a chef.
5:56 You've never boiled dogs in beer then. I always boil brats in beer and then finish them on the grill. Pabst being the best beer to use so far as I have tested. It adds this delicious light sweetness to the brats that other beers don't seem to add. Since then I never raw dog my dogs on a pan.
For the Hot Dogs: Could you use a food processor or blender to grind the meat? The use a funnel and shove the meat through that into the casing. Modern times need budget solutions.
Hey Joshua, you should start a series called "But Simple" where you simplify extravagant dishes so regular home cooks can make them at home without spending the entire day in the kitchen. Love your stuff, keep it up!
The Best Idea
pls
This would be so perfect.
That's impossible Josh only knows how to be extra.
Yep I second (or 6th or 7th) this. doesn't matter, it's a good idea.
I would consider this "but better" bc sure overall the price can be cheaper, but it's balanced out by the amount of time one needs to take to make the recipe (even just the sausage itself) let alone the specific "optional" instruments listed. I think time needs to be included on "cheaper" because it's not just money that goes into cooking but also time/patience
the real but cheaper is to get the hotdogs at Costco and then make your own toppings lol
Imagine doing this in a batch and freezing.... It's fine where it is.
Work smarter, not harder.
Also consider hotdogs are made by the billion already and so are buns there's. Absolutely fuck all stopping them not filling it up with chemical bullshit. Using spices like he does here, they just don't because capitalists are greedy c**ts

Hi, if you like cooking, feel free to check out my easy recipes ;-)
facts
Or money, to be honest. Dude used the most expensive methods for a series called "but cheaper". what a fucking sham
I mean.... You spend a couple of hours, and you get, easily, a few months, to a year's worth of hot dogs... Or a few summer party's worth.
Being realistic, if you've already got the grinder out, you could, feasibly, take a day, and have all the cased, meaty goodness you could ever need, for that same span...
@@andrewamann2821 cool 👍 thanks for the advice.
The difference in energy between Kendrick and Josh at 7:36 is my new favourite meme someone make a gif out of this please
Josh, I am once again begging you to go to Iceland, try their hot dogs, and teach us how to make them. They are the best in the world.
@Jacko Sargs They're the best I've ever had that's for sure.
Josh, please hear me out. I love to cook just as much as I love to eat good food. I've even started making some videos of my own, in a different style, to share my food with the world. Please try this. The absolute best way to cook a hot dog is to deep fry it! Trust me. It only works with natural casing hot dogs but the snap is absolutely unreal. Please, I know you have leftover dogs. Do it!
Anything bought in massive bulk - if bulk enough - will always be cheaper than what you usually buy for a family serving. This series is inherently flawed... and impossible for the average home cook to replicate, I might add.
fried bell peppers and onion with grated cheese, finely chopped bacon and spicy bbq sauce is goated
I think there should be a series for college students who only really have access to the mini-fridge and microwave in their dorms. I didn't have access to a full kitchen until my senior year of college.
Edit: To make it clear, my school also didn't have a food court. You were completely on your own for food.
I mean, what people living in a dorm even have a cutting board and a knife? And if for some reason you do, you have to awkwardly cut on your desk. You don’t have spices, and you don’t have room for much of a pantry or condiments. And based on how Josh does videos, you’ll be given recipes with ingredients you’ll use once or twice before you hit the expiration date. And do you want those things crowding your fridge or pantry space when you have so little in the first place?
I support the idea out of pure absurdity and how much it will crush Josh’s soul to have a microwave and mini fridge as his only appliance options.
But if we’re being realistic, just eat your food court and your ramen and be happy.
@@seanmatthewking Yeah um…we didn't have a food court either so there goes that. My school owned a "cafe" that didn't serve full meals and it was a train ride away. And to answer your questions, yes actually. You do awkwardly make your food at your desk. Maybe not the microwave as his only appliance but to use things that someone would have in a dorm. Hell, I even used an iron and tin foil to make a quesadilla before and it was probably one of the best cheap meals I've had. No, I didn't have a cutting board but I did have a knife and a plate to cut things with. As far as space, I had my bed lofted for the majority of my time living there so storage wasn't really an issue as far as things like spices and ingredients that don't expire fast. As for other things, I got everything in 1-3 serving sizes so nothing ever went bad.
Again, about space, you can make it work. I dormed with 3 people and shared a bedroom. You can find ways to maximize space.
You get really crafty with how you do things in college when you don't have any other options. Nothing stopped me from being able to make full meals with what little I had to work with. It's all about creativity.
Edit: also, to your comment about ramen, yeah, no. I tried that along with a lot of other instant food my freshman year then ended up with high cholesterol and heart problems fairly fast. I didn't have a choice but to eat full and healthier meals. Again, when there's no option, you make it work.
2nd Edit: last thing, when I transferred schools to one that had a kitchen (still no food court) for the people in the dorm to use, it was two refrigerators for ~450 people to use so… yeah
@ I have learned to make S O many things in the microwave, and while I do prefer full kitchens, you just can't help but make do. Or...
"Settle" and be happy 👀 have nothing and be happy... Sounds familiar. Ew.
He wouldn't be able to do it bc he's so out of touch with broke people. The prices in his But Cheaper videos are always kinda sketchy and he makes recipes for people with loads of free time.
Damn that college sounds like a shit hole.
The reality is is this will come to about 10$ a serving for like 4 servings and you end up with about 50$ ingredients you'll never use ever again. Still cool tho but definitely not cheaper.
that's half of his vids lately, his recipes are becoming even less practical over time. it's why i go to other creators for actual recipes I plan on making
@@josephporcelli2302 can you tell me some?
@@1958jacco Ethan Chlebowski is good. Mike Green from Pro Home Cooks are both good
@@ShayanGivehchian Ethan is great, been watching him for a while. Made quite a few of his recipes.
J Kenji Lopez Alt, during the pandemic he started posting almost daily gopro videos of what he cooked for his family. An absolute treasure trove of cooking knowledge
I’ll would buy overpriced hotdogs from Whole Foods but make Josh’s bun recipe! ❤️
Lol that opening had me dying. Also Josh knows there are good store bought hot dogs right? Not just the lame ones.
One day you should have a well known chef be a guest. Put him in the cupboard and open it and start talking about a recipe. After you're done, the POV changes from the chefs POV to you just talking to him while he's in the cupboard. I think that would be absolutely brilliant.
Kendrick's face at 7:36 of eating pure humble pie is so good.
josh-that intro was AWESOME + Kendrick got two free hot dogs!
Man said it costs $1.50 to make, then pulls out $50 of meat
he said its 1.50 per serving, i hope you've become more coherent over the last 2 years
@@whipwalka That's still more than 1 dollar.
@@thesomethingandsomething9823 bro if you cant spare 50 cents for a hotdog idk how you are alive in this economy
@@whipwalkaHey, I never said I couldn't do that.
Wrap your head around this… it’s for the algorithm/views! No way! Crazy right? He rounded down so that he would (via the video) be more successful! I know this is hard for some people to come to on their own, but someday I believe you will be able to. @@thesomethingandsomething9823
Being josh I'm kinda surprised he didn't make the mustard mayo and ketchup. Love this Josh.
Yes papa josh has a new video
Nice "rock to fakie" by the butter at 6:18 . Steez ma dude!
I'd love to see you attempt to do a Chicago-style hot dog. I'm curious to see what you'd do with it.
I just always want to give Kendrick a hug in the least creepy way!
This all looks amazing and I wish I can make it but will probably have to wait a while before being able to make this
Hi, if you like cooking, feel free to check out my easy recipes ;-)
That while for me might be the entire life though. Videos like these are a reminder why i'm not into cooking that much, lol. No one has time for this unless cooking is a hobby.
@@DoctorStrange01 Very true! I can only even attempt his recipes on a Friday afternoon when I know I'm going to have a weekend where I can have the time to finish these recipes XD
Didn't even think such an amazing dish had to be done as 'But Cheaper' but I won't question it. Love the effort put into every aspect of this!
Joshua: "But cheaper"
Also Joshua: Uses equipment and ingredients.
And makes his own hot dogs😂
Haha that opening segment had me in tears😂😂
Thank you for the video. We are on a tight budget, so this is quite impossible to make.
7:37 Kendrick’s face! He’s so upset that it tastes so good hahaha
I wish I was a millionaire so I could hire him to be my personal chef 👨🍳 😂
@7:35 My man Kendrick still feeling that double dog good good.
I stand firm opposing mayo on a hot dog. Everything else looks delicious.

I will always and forever love the crew
This one was more of a "but better" than cheaper. The idea with making the buns is good tho and indeed simple and can be cheap, same with the pickled stuff and onions. The dog itself, not so much. I'd honestly like you to create a series where you go in a store and buy cheap brands and make fancy dishes with those.
Joshua Weissman is a wise man
0:03 me when me when your mom me when
Made everything except the hot dogs (working on it, just don't have the gear yet). Literally best hot dogs I've ever had.
Jesus Saves and gives a second chance at life! ❤️
Yeah having a local butcher or carniceria offer you some of these perks (grinding the meat even) makes part of this possible. As of the meat casing, that may be trickier outside of the Kitchen Aid add on.
Hot dogs in boiled water are solid got a great snap. Awesome video, love the (unyun) “put that on a cracker dood”
The fact that the ONLY method of cooking hot dogs that Josh said not to do is boil them, indicates that he's more okay with microwaved hot dogs than he is boiled
Joshua made an independence day for the grilling feast about hot dogs, hamburgers, and chicken with some of his friends who were excited about the fireworks
SO good! Excellent video. Thanks!!!
The only thing that gets me about this series is that it’s but cheaper, and he typically uses his most expensive tools for the *flex*, hence defeating the purpose of “but cheaper.” No big deal tho, everything always looks delicious and I would pay insane amounts of money to eat something made by chef 👨🍳 joshie
I just found you and had nightmares all night of you making super super cheesy garlic bread but it was terrifying 😂
Wow. It's like harvesting your own grain then milling it to make toast. Dog are meant to be simple. But 10/10 for effort. Looks amazing. 1
what has this guy been on, like he's such a good chef with no achievements except 6m subs
You’re a true glizzy geologist my friend
The bun recipe is sooo good though. Thats why im subscribed. Im not spending like 130$ on ingredients equipment and 4 -6 hours of time to make hot dogs. Making bread though perfect.
Grilled oniones yes
This is honestly one of the best looking things u have made
I almost cried these looked so good. I'm not joking either.
One minute into the video and the price of the hotdog is already 16x what was advertised in the title. Amazing
Why so many losers commenting on the time and money, You can obviously buy some of the stuff at a butcher, baker, or even grocery store and make something very delicious. He just likes to show to extremes cause he is a chef.
The baseball bat home run into the sound guys mouth is why I subbed
Okay, that opening gag made me laugh a lot more than it should have
5:56 You've never boiled dogs in beer then. I always boil brats in beer and then finish them on the grill. Pabst being the best beer to use so far as I have tested. It adds this delicious light sweetness to the brats that other beers don't seem to add. Since then I never raw dog my dogs on a pan.
You can fill a sausage casing by hand with a piping bag tho sometimes it can turn into a 2 person job.
Joshua’s stand mixer has NEVER got this much action
Love your videos, love your book, cant wait for the next one. Keep it up man!
I will try these out. They are probably cheaper then stadium hot dogs but for sure they will be way better. Keep up the great Job Joshua! 👍🏻😀
For the Hot Dogs: Could you use a food processor or blender to grind the meat? The use a funnel and shove the meat through that into the casing.
Modern times need budget solutions.
BEST BEGINNING OF VIDEO EVER 😂⚾🌭 BrAvO bRaVo 👏👏
The fart sounds absolutely destroy me. 🤣😂
The opening was amazing. His face with the hot dog in his mouth was the highlight.
Kudos for the Natural Casing dog! It's the ONLY way to go!
Kendrick, and I hope he sees this, is a gift.
