Actually, pork and apples are a very common pairing and go together very well, a stew with them isn't out of the ordinary. What I think is out of the ordinary is the v8, pepsi, and half cup of sugar added to this - if he had increased the salty and umami the apple alone is plenty sweet to complement the stew in nice little bursts of an interesting flavor.
I think Jack doubled up on the sugar because he thought was in the recipe to make it sweet, when it's probably there to help break down the meat and make it softer.
I've made pork chops in my slow cooker with applesauce (and other seasonings) before and they turned out good. I don't have an issue with that flavor combination. But apple...chunks? In a stew? Jack...it's time to stop. EDIT On second thought I object more strongly to the tomatoes and V8 and pepsi and sugar and un-sauteed onion and....

Heated aluminum with the food (right up there with heated plastic with food) Dirty dozen veggies all over and you know none of it is organic Pork, a meat so disruptive to hormones that athletes fail doping tests when they eat it Don't take cooking advice from a guy that's had multiple strokes.
This is one of the best Cooking with Jack videos I've ever seen. If it wasn't for the Pepsi and the V8 I'd actually have of a bowl of this, it might not taste the best but at least it won't give me food poisoning like most of his other recipes
@@TheBuddyCassius If it were just for the tomatoes it would be fine - they're not too much. The fresh ingredients looked actually fine to me - until it was for the starch - which shouldn't be necessary if you just keep those ingredients in the oven for long enough and have the right amount of liquid. In fact - the only two things that really feel odd to me is the starch and the V8 - the rest might not create your classical 'stew' - but I also don't see a reason for it not tasting fine to be honest... What I don't understand though is him mentioning something about 8 hours? Ideally you want to cook/simmer it for a while - but that shouldn't take longer then lets say 2-3h o.O Could make something similar - most likely better - in below 1.5h if you'd just use a pot...
Probably. He hates measuring. He has tons of left over meals he will use to cook a new thing with. He seems to hate wasting food so I think he tries to use absolutely everything when possible. He had that garbage stew or whatever it was called when he gathered all his stuff going out of date chopped it all up, and just threw various juices on it. Stuff like hot dogs and various beef and pork cuts
@swegmanswag I would take everything, leave out the apple, make an American stew, and used the apples for a dessert. You can even eat the apples plain as dessert.
The noises Jack makes on every single cooking video while taking a bite and trying to pretend it's good is less convincing than a parent pretend-eating something their kid makes.
"more pepper into this one single dish than you've put in every single other dish you've ever made on your channel" let's not forget the thanksgiving mashed potatoes when he literally dumped like a cup of pepper.

While I agree with you in that I'm also a 'keep fruits out of my hot dinners' kinda guy, tomatoes in stew has never, is not, and will never be an odd choice.
It's not the tomatoes, that's fine; I've put tomatoes or tomato paste in a stew before, but it's the combination of tomatoes with apples, Pepsi, and V-8 juice. Those things do NOT go together. And why is he stewing a pork loin? A stew is for tougher or cheaper cuts of meat. Plus WHY is he adding cornstarch when there's potatoes in it? They're going to cook down to mush anyway, he's going to turn it into glue with that. No wonder Jack's had a third dang stroke.
@@nocturnaltruthseeker When it comes to scientific classification, tomatoes are considered fruits. Culinarilly tomatoes are considered a vegetable due to the flavor profile.
As an amateur chef, I am absolutely baffled by your aversion to tomatoes in a stew. As a swede who puts lingonberry on everything, I heavily disagree with your assertion about fruit in savory applications. If I had these ingredients, I'm pretty sure I could salvage this recipe and make an okay soup.
He's not a good cook himself. He said in another video the tomato looked rotten, because the inside was mushy and had a little green yellow around the seeds. Most of what he says gets skated over, because the source of his commentary is fucking up so royally. But he's made some really bizarre foods statements across his commentaries. I'm not convinced he can make much himself
No, I know you've never met her, but that dishonor belongs to my Aunt Janice.... If wretched cooking were a Guinness record, she would hold the grand champion position.
The scary part is, if you see the ingredients layed out, you could whip up something good and stew like from it, but oh diggity dang... how the turntables
Oh, absolutely! I was thinking kabobs on the grill with roasted potatoes, fresh fruit cobbler too... But no. Nope. Jack decided it all needed to get cooked together. Sigh.
Subtract the soda, tomato juice, sugar, canned soup and onion soup mix and the remaining ingredients would make a fairly standard 'Italian style' dish. Vegetable stock added as needed. August is obviously unaware of the widely accepted pork/apple synergy. Jack snatched defeat from potential victory the moment he pulled out that aluminum oven tray.
@@shawncat i'm glad i'm not the only one who thought it was over when I saw the aluminum tray. Like hes not even going to stew it in a pot? What is this a cursed casarole?
Apple and pork really does work well. Using a bit of juices and slices and then popping it in the oven with some potatoes makes it very sweet and juicy
Right? Works with beef as well, grate it down and caramalize it with onions, put in the meat to brown and then throw in the vegetables, deglaze with a bit of wine, fill up, let simmer until the beef is tender. Season with sense. Lol.
I mean its a stupid recipe. Plus you could make something like this in half the time and make it look nicer. Its not that the stuff Jack is using is strange. Its just he makes stuff that should be nice. Look horrible.
The pork and apples aren’t the problem it’s the other 30 bizarre ingredients & baking it all together in the oven. I mean Pepsi? Sugar? Peppers & tomatoes? Very odd.
The true jack experience is saying, "there's no way it could get worse, like it would have to kill him to get worse" then proceeds to get worse and he somehow survive
August's bizarre knowledge on food and Jack's inability to cook are a strange duo. Like did August live a really sheltered life or he is just super picky? Fruit in salad is extremely common. Tomatoes in stew and chili is also very common and good.
I was sitting here like...he's never heard of a summer strawberry spinach salad? I've seen apples be put in stew before, I've even done it before. Granted...Jack's cooking is still terrible, but August...tomatoes absolutely can go in a stew, what do you mean??
I was about to type a similar comment but I'm glad there is one already here. Yeah, I don't understand, not knowing that fruit can go well in salad and that pork and apple is a pretty great and well known combination. It was also weird how he thought that tomatoes in stew is weird. I don't know if he was sheltered or not but it might be a combination of the two. I wouldn't doubt if he was sheltered and still doesn't like to expand his palate.
So he added a salt, plus a can of cream of celery which has 35% of his daily salt intake, plus onion soup mix which has 25% of his daily salt intake. Edit: And now V8 which contains 25% of the daily salt intake. I feel really bad for all the people that's tried to educate Jack on sodium in his diet.
lol I forgot about the can of Cream of Celery when counting up the salt in this dish. The can is 2½ servings so that's actually 70% RDA sodium. Also V8 is like 30% RDA sodium per 8 oz.
You should see his most recent chicken noodle soup recipe. He uses chicken stock, chicken broth, salt and pepper, bouillon cubes, store bought rotisserie chicken and dry noodles. When I see the sodium intake in his food I find it no surprise that he’s had so many strokes.
Yes, amount of sodium he added in this, even with perfectly healthy kidneys will give you problems. Other thing is added sugar, insane amount. And all of that with garlic bread. Not to mention really strange choice of ingredients.
@@starkebrasko3405 be real, if you didn't know jack cooked it i bet you would try it. The sweetness from the apple and a bit of acidity from the tomatoes, v8 juice, and cola, really would pair nicely with pork. If in fact he did try this with beef, like he says he will, I would wager the result was not as fragrant and well matched.
There are a lot of stews that add tomato, its definately for acid and tang. Apple isn's very common, but if it is used in a stew then its usually used with pork and seasoned with some chinese 5 spice blend. I do have a soup recipe that has both apples and pork (no tomato) and it is a hearty yet refreshing dish and can be served hot or cold. The apple is similar to uses of potato, however they are cooked less so theres more of a crunch and it adds a decent sweetness and a little bit of sour (which if you've ever had sweet and sour pork then you get how the flavors can match up). Chinese 5 spice is a really good way of combining the two seemingly opposing flavors together (especially in a soup or less sugary dish in general).
Honestly, having a little sliced peach or strawberry in a salad with some sort of vinaigrette dressing is refreshing in my opinion- and fruit meeting savory dishes isn't really uncommon if you dare to venture out of the same 20 recipes known by most Americans. But, to those who just don't like the idea/tried it and it's not for them, you are also valid.
I mean to act like the rest of the world doesn't also run by 20 recipes is kind of line. I'm a Guatemalan descent and we have 20 recipes that we stick to. Lol August is not the person that you want to hear a review from. The videos are cool cuz we get to watch Jack royally screw up with a smile on his face while the duck makes a joke or two, but the truth is the best chefs in the world use fruit for all kinds of application for he doesn't really have the experience to give an opinion about it being out of place.
Strawberries with salt, pepper and balsamic vinegar rule!! In Sweden we eat so much strawberries in the summers that of course we end up doing strawberry salads too.
American here, and even around here it’s an unpopular opinion, but I don’t like sweet and salty for example salted caramel. But sweet and savory I can stand and get why people like it, but I haven’t found the right dish to really make it work for me
I'd argue that his stew is probably too sweet. I brown the meat a bit first, then I throw in whatever vegetables I have laying around. I usually add a can of tomatoes in the end for the liquid. I feel like overall he added too much liquid, the choice of sauce is questionable in my eyes and the apples are a thing I haven't tried yet.
Jack's talking is so warm and welcoming. Can't say the same thing about his cooking. Edit: yo who liked this comment? Edit 2: Why did yall turn the reply section into a discussion?
"You could put just about anything over a bed of rice and I'll eat it" Ah this sounds like a perfect time for Jack's version of a Japanese delicacy: Chicken sashimi over rice
no bc that sounds like something I would eat until I remembered that you can't.. sashimi.. chicken. i apologize for falling into your cooking with Jack trap. many other people might click it before fully reading the title and fall victim to the most deserved salmonella infection ever.
In old german cooking disches, it is standard to add apples to side dishes, such as sauerkraut. The acidity of the apple can provides a slight change in texture, and the sweetness of the apple can help the side dish differ from the main dish. Overall, this leads to a better experience due to the variety of tastes. *My opinion as German
Bro for real apples in some stuff like a stew absolutely slap. Their sweetness and tartness adds so much depth to those things and works so well with the sweetness of carrots.
@@LiberPater777 yeah. I don't know if I'd want it in a stew...but I understand why someone would do that. I make an apple bourbon pork roast that would lose a ton of great flavor without the apple slices!
I'd say that my comfort food would be my mom's Jiggs Dinner. For anyone who doesn't know, it's a Labrador Thanksgiving/Sunday dinner type meal, and it's amazing. You cook either a chicken or a turkey, depending on the amount mouths you're feeding, and you stuff it like you would any turkey/chicken. Then you boil 'salt beef' with carrots, potatoes, cabbage, turnips, and a jar of yellow split peas with holes punched in the top of the jar. I say 'salt beef', because you can't just put regular beef in the pot with a lot of salt, you have to get an actual bucket of salt beef. Trust me, it makes a world of difference. Based on preference, you can make squash, I don't usually make it because my bf and I aren't big fans of squash, but if you do make it, I recommend mashing it. For some reason, the squash tastes better that way. Now, my favorite part, is the berry pudding. It's kind of like a bread/cake with berries in it. It sounds weird, but I swear to God, it's literally the best part. My mom makes it with Partridge Berries, which in Canada, grow natively in Labrador. With the veggies you've boiled with your salt beef, you just serve them up whole, and the salt from the beef makes them taste so amazing! It's wild! With the jar of split peas, you mash those, and I'm not really sure if you put anything in them, as I don't tend to make those either when I make Jiggs Dinner. Now, just from reading my comment, it probably doesn't sound as fabulous as I'm hyping it up to be, but that's just because I'm not the best at explaining it all. Just know, that it's my favorite meal, my comfort food, and if I was ever on death row, I'd ask for Jiggs Dinner, made by my mom, and my nan (my mom's mom).
Lol, yeah. Jack is terrible, but August clearly is clueless about food as well. Some of the stuff he calls out in these videos are actually legitimate techniques or food pairings.
I just got past the intro and already I'm seeing Pepsi, V8, dry soup mix, and vegetables. I'm sincerely convinced one of these days Jack will somehow create a new life form in his kitchen that will create a battle for all life as we know it.
I love how passionate august is about his food opinions that are often times just wrong😂 Edit: Just to clarify not being a culinary extraordinaire is fine, I still love August’s videos and think it’s hilarious when he’s disgusted by these normal things 😅
Yeah, that rant about apples in stew was just weird. Sure, it's not a recipe I would ever use but complaining about apples in a stew sounds just ignorant.
Apples in salad is nice, cranberries too...I feel August might be a white bread type of guy sometimes when such normal ingredients seem wild and foreign.
No August is the kind of person where certain dishes should contain certain ingredients and absolutely nothing else. I kind of agree with him when it comes to the Pepsi or apples in a damn stew.
@@abjectlyterrible Oh yeah, 100% agree pepsi has no place in stew. I'm on the fence with apples cause...I've never tried it, and it is a heartier fruit...maybe???
Apples are good in lots of hearty meals, especially curry. August just doesn't know much recipes of differing origins from what I've seen from his videos.
Whats insane is that most of the solid elements in a crock pot would've made a bomb ass stew (yes August, even the apples) but the liquid elements and the execution were just too incongruous, for lack of a better word
@@annieworroll4373 Not really. You can put apples in a stew with pork and it works well. Carrots, potatoes, onions and celery is pretty standard. I would have done a mirepoix with the carrots, onions and celery and browned the pork. V8 has a butt ton of sugar in it and also has fruit juice in it as well as tomato juice. The pepsi is also super weird.
Never tried Apples in a stew, but apples, pinaples, or other fruits are key ingredients in a lot of curries. Wasn't really a fan of it either, until i tried it. Its very different, but can be awesome. And i think it could be good, in another long simmering dish, like a stew.
If the ingredients that are use makes sense then yes but in jack case he just desrepect the meat,fruit, vegetable,and every other things he's been adding.
This is like a Pass It On from Sorted, especially the older videos from back in the day. When August said ‘what’s going on here?’ I immediately heard James saying ‘where’s the dish?’ Lol
Colonial times used apples in stew, resulting in a hearty and delicious dish. To recreate this classic recipe, combine cubed apples, diced vegetables, and a flavorful broth to make a traditional Colonial-style apple stew. Enjoy!
Actually, there are stews that use fruits and yes, soda- or even beer. In Spain and here in the Philippines, we have stews that use beer or Sprite in order to add flavor and help with softening the meat. It gets lost in the soup itself, so you can't distinguish it from the other ingredients. Another dish we have here is ribs with a special sauce made with Coke, and another version of the dish is made with strawberries.
Some pork dishes do use apples, either to stuff the meat, sometimes a smaller piglet or a large muscle of a grown pig, it can accompany japanese curries to balence out the spiciness and one can use it in pies as a texture inhensor (apples, especially tart ones contain a lot of pectin). But of course, it's not a meat pie, curry, nor a stuffed roast. If he would have put meat and veggies, and nothing else, everything would be more or less fine as long as properly cooked. The vegetables usually contain enough moisture on their own, especially tomatoes, to form the sauce without the need for the huge addition of liquids, especially if he forgoes the potatoes. The pepsi, sugar, beef base, caned soup and soup mixt are very much unecessary. If he plans to plop it into the oven, then I would not recommand putting cornstarch at all, since cornstarch is useful in pan sauces. The Westershire sauce is a perfectly fine addition to his list of ingredients, and salt and pepper are also perfectly fine and even recommanded, and the tomato juice can add some wanted moisture. Also, he had so much packaged stuff. I think Jack might have a dissorder regarding his taste buds.
@@Stop_Gooning My father's beef stew recipe has always been beef, carrots and celery, onions, garlic, tomatoes, and potatoes. I just can't invision a beef stew without them.
This looks like the only SOMEWHAT DECENT recipe Jack has cooked. He should have seared his tenderloin, though. BIG miss on not getting some of that crusty texture from the Maillard Reaction.
i was binging these jack videos on your channel for about 2 hours now and i have been blessed with a new video 35 minutes ago i am eternally grateful for this blessing august
The fact, RUclips allows this man to put out videos is what I’m scratching my head about. Some of these dishes he makes most of the dishes he makes I’ll say would possibly kill you from food poisoning to salmonella. It’s just insane. RUclips allows this man to put out videos.
1:06 oh man... I'm eating EXACTLY soup, a chicken and vegetable soup and I coudn't be happier to enjoy it while watching this video. It is a rare and amazing event eating something that Jack's doing! Much love from Brazil!!
Every time August uploads, my mouth forms a smile that I’m not really sure I could make myself. It’s like…such a great feeling that can only be brought only by August.
Truly one of the best things Jack's ever made; pork and apple stew is a thing that can taste really good. What ruins it is the can of Pepsi (pure sugar, dear god) and the massive amount of V8, to the point that all this is gonna taste like is sweetened V8. It's still top-tier for Jack, though. Before he added those two things, if he'd just gone with more stock (personally for pork stews I like to do a mix of beef and chicken)... this would've been downright decent to good.
While there were certainly some choices I wouldn't make, this is one of the better things he has ever made. Heck, just the fact that its cooked all the way through puts it at the top of the recipes from him.
5:12 No, remember the Mashed potatoes and stuffing? he made to send to a soldier for thanksgiving? I believe that was the most black pepper hes ever used. The food was black.

If I had these ingredients, I'm pretty sure I could salvage this recipe and make an okay soup.
He's not a good cook himself. He said in another video the tomato looked rotten, because the inside was mushy and had a little green yellow around the seeds.
Most of what he says gets skated over, because the source of his commentary is fucking up so royally. But he's made some really bizarre foods statements across his commentaries. I'm not convinced he can make much himself
He thought brisket could be pork🤣🤣🤣
I also don't really like big chunks of tomatoes in my food either. That's probably just me being picky with an immature palate though
@@honeypotusernameThe tomato cooks down???
@@chrispfeiffer6905 okay???
Gotta admit. Jack probably has a world record for the most worst dishes ever made
Kay said hold my dry pasta/meat lollipops.
No, I know you've never met her, but that dishonor belongs to my Aunt Janice.... If wretched cooking were a Guinness record, she would hold the grand champion position.
Naah... Kay is way worse .. thats not even qualifies as cooking
@@AnnWahlquist kay might be worse but she's at least a lovely lady
Kay is worse. Jack just tends to undercook things. Kay has no business anywhere near a kitchen
I saw the Pepsi at the beginning and my innocent mind said “oh good he’s got something to drink”😭😭😭
The scary part is, if you see the ingredients layed out, you could whip up something good and stew like from it, but oh diggity dang... how the turntables
Oh, absolutely! I was thinking kabobs on the grill with roasted potatoes, fresh fruit cobbler too...
But no. Nope. Jack decided it all needed to get cooked together. Sigh.
Subtract the soda, tomato juice, sugar, canned soup and onion soup mix and the remaining ingredients would make a fairly standard 'Italian style' dish. Vegetable stock added as needed. August is obviously unaware of the widely accepted pork/apple synergy. Jack snatched defeat from potential victory the moment he pulled out that aluminum oven tray.
@@shawncat Which is actually sort of wild considering pork and apples have been around since Roman times tbh.
@@shawncat i'm glad i'm not the only one who thought it was over when I saw the aluminum tray. Like hes not even going to stew it in a pot? What is this a cursed casarole?
@@playcube4564 Maybe sear the meat? No?
I love how Jack starts the video by informing everybody what comfort food is like every single person on earth doesn’t know what comfort food is
Jacks not the smartest man just look at the shit he cooks andbody with any common sense would not eat this garbage lmao
My partner commented on the huge amount of leftovers. Perhaps jack works in a soup kitchen. If so, bet they've got no lines waiting on jacks day.
Apple and pork really does work well. Using a bit of juices and slices and then popping it in the oven with some potatoes makes it very sweet and juicy
Right? Works with beef as well, grate it down and caramalize it with onions, put in the meat to brown and then throw in the vegetables, deglaze with a bit of wine, fill up, let simmer until the beef is tender. Season with sense. Lol.
Yes it does, but that goes against the narrative that every single thing Jack does = wrong (usually true)
I mean its a stupid recipe. Plus you could make something like this in half the time and make it look nicer. Its not that the stuff Jack is using is strange. Its just he makes stuff that should be nice. Look horrible.
I don't like it as a stew though. I don't like pork or apples in stew.
The pork and apples aren’t the problem it’s the other 30 bizarre ingredients & baking it all together in the oven. I mean Pepsi? Sugar? Peppers & tomatoes? Very odd.
Every time August uploads a video about Jack, I think, “Oh shit, how tf would it get worse?”
@rous jake is what yo mama said
And then it somehow is worse
The true jack experience is saying, "there's no way it could get worse, like it would have to kill him to get worse" then proceeds to get worse and he somehow survive
5:33 "He He He He" - Jack
August's bizarre knowledge on food and Jack's inability to cook are a strange duo. Like did August live a really sheltered life or he is just super picky? Fruit in salad is extremely common. Tomatoes in stew and chili is also very common and good.
From some of the similar stuff he's said in previous videos, yeah, I wouldn't doubt it.
Yea he has no clue about cooking lol just like Jack. That’s what makes this funny.
They are both an interesting and entertaining duo... Considering both of their lack of knowledge in cooking.
I was sitting here like...he's never heard of a summer strawberry spinach salad? I've seen apples be put in stew before, I've even done it before. Granted...Jack's cooking is still terrible, but August...tomatoes absolutely can go in a stew, what do you mean??
I was about to type a similar comment but I'm glad there is one already here. Yeah, I don't understand, not knowing that fruit can go well in salad and that pork and apple is a pretty great and well known combination. It was also weird how he thought that tomatoes in stew is weird. I don't know if he was sheltered or not but it might be a combination of the two. I wouldn't doubt if he was sheltered and still doesn't like to expand his palate.
So he added a salt, plus a can of cream of celery which has 35% of his daily salt intake, plus onion soup mix which has 25% of his daily salt intake. Edit: And now V8 which contains 25% of the daily salt intake. I feel really bad for all the people that's tried to educate Jack on sodium in his diet.
He was in neuro rehab for months man.
sense he like never put salt in anything else he ever made it seems maybe hes just making up for it LMAO
lol I forgot about the can of Cream of Celery when counting up the salt in this dish. The can is 2½ servings so that's actually 70% RDA sodium. Also V8 is like 30% RDA sodium per 8 oz.
You should see his most recent chicken noodle soup recipe. He uses chicken stock, chicken broth, salt and pepper, bouillon cubes, store bought rotisserie chicken and dry noodles. When I see the sodium intake in his food I find it no surprise that he’s had so many strokes.
Yes, amount of sodium he added in this, even with perfectly healthy kidneys will give you problems. Other thing is added sugar, insane amount. And all of that with garlic bread. Not to mention really strange choice of ingredients.
When jack uncovered the stew I honestly thought that's the best looking dish I ever seen him make
It rly doesn’t look horrendous, like if I saw it at like a pot luck I wouldn’t be offended, I way just stay a few feet away from it at all times
@@starkebrasko3405 be real, if you didn't know jack cooked it i bet you would try it. The sweetness from the apple and a bit of acidity from the tomatoes, v8 juice, and cola, really would pair nicely with pork. If in fact he did try this with beef, like he says he will, I would wager the result was not as fragrant and well matched.
it looks disgusting
If you've never tried Apple Pork Chops you have yet to truly live.
Jack’s dishes remind me of the food I make while stoned out of my mind.

@@Azrael76667 I end up throwing up ngl
i don't think I've ever been stoned enough to even think about something like that.
Try getting stoned and following a recipe - game changer
@@sunnohh ima have to do that.
There are a lot of stews that add tomato, its definately for acid and tang. Apple isn's very common, but if it is used in a stew then its usually used with pork and seasoned with some chinese 5 spice blend. I do have a soup recipe that has both apples and pork (no tomato) and it is a hearty yet refreshing dish and can be served hot or cold. The apple is similar to uses of potato, however they are cooked less so theres more of a crunch and it adds a decent sweetness and a little bit of sour (which if you've ever had sweet and sour pork then you get how the flavors can match up). Chinese 5 spice is a really good way of combining the two seemingly opposing flavors together (especially in a soup or less sugary dish in general).
You have awful taste
Honestly, having a little sliced peach or strawberry in a salad with some sort of vinaigrette dressing is refreshing in my opinion- and fruit meeting savory dishes isn't really uncommon if you dare to venture out of the same 20 recipes known by most Americans.
But, to those who just don't like the idea/tried it and it's not for them, you are also valid.
I mean to act like the rest of the world doesn't also run by 20 recipes is kind of line. I'm a Guatemalan descent and we have 20 recipes that we stick to. Lol August is not the person that you want to hear a review from. The videos are cool cuz we get to watch Jack royally screw up with a smile on his face while the duck makes a joke or two, but the truth is the best chefs in the world use fruit for all kinds of application for he doesn't really have the experience to give an opinion about it being out of place.
Strawberries with salt, pepper and balsamic vinegar rule!! In Sweden we eat so much strawberries in the summers that of course we end up doing strawberry salads too.
American here, and even around here it’s an unpopular opinion, but I don’t like sweet and salty for example salted caramel. But sweet and savory I can stand and get why people like it, but I haven’t found the right dish to really make it work for me
Fruit in salad is quite common, for sweetness and/or acidity. Kinda refreshing tbh.
Fruit in stew works for sweetness, sometimes.
A good example is the
Strawberry Poppyseed Salad
"Fruit stew"
Where's the FBI when you need them?
I'd argue that his stew is probably too sweet.
I brown the meat a bit first, then I throw in whatever vegetables I have laying around. I usually add a can of tomatoes in the end for the liquid. I feel like overall he added too much liquid, the choice of sauce is questionable in my eyes and the apples are a thing I haven't tried yet.
Honestly without the added sugar and Pepsi, and 1/6 the V8 juice, this would probably be good. Tomato works in savory dishes including chili
“Sometimes”

In old german cooking disches, it is standard to add apples to side dishes, such as sauerkraut. The acidity of the apple can provides a slight change in texture, and the sweetness of the apple can help the side dish differ from the main dish. Overall, this leads to a better experience due to the variety of tastes.
*My opinion as German
Some dishes yes apple is great for. This is not one of those dishes
I agree. As a Swede I don't find it strange at all to put apples in a stew. I do that a lot.
One thing I can say is, at least everything was throughly cooked 😂
Bro for real apples in some stuff like a stew absolutely slap. Their sweetness and tartness adds so much depth to those things and works so well with the sweetness of carrots.
Apples and pork go well together in general. There's tons of recipes with both ingredients.
@@LiberPater777 yeah. I don't know if I'd want it in a stew...but I understand why someone would do that. I make an apple bourbon pork roast that would lose a ton of great flavor without the apple slices!
Apples in japanese curry, in place of potatoes, adds a nice texture and softness, much more so than potatos
coming here to say the same thing, like, yeah there's a lot of questionable stuff here but like, the apples are p tasty here.
@@kirkwalters1228You probably won’t feel it if it’s been cooking for a long while
I'd say that my comfort food would be my mom's Jiggs Dinner. For anyone who doesn't know, it's a Labrador Thanksgiving/Sunday dinner type meal, and it's amazing.
You cook either a chicken or a turkey, depending on the amount mouths you're feeding, and you stuff it like you would any turkey/chicken.
Then you boil 'salt beef' with carrots, potatoes, cabbage, turnips, and a jar of yellow split peas with holes punched in the top of the jar. I say 'salt beef', because you can't just put regular beef in the pot with a lot of salt, you have to get an actual bucket of salt beef. Trust me, it makes a world of difference.
Based on preference, you can make squash, I don't usually make it because my bf and I aren't big fans of squash, but if you do make it, I recommend mashing it. For some reason, the squash tastes better that way.
Now, my favorite part, is the berry pudding. It's kind of like a bread/cake with berries in it. It sounds weird, but I swear to God, it's literally the best part. My mom makes it with Partridge Berries, which in Canada, grow natively in Labrador.
With the veggies you've boiled with your salt beef, you just serve them up whole, and the salt from the beef makes them taste so amazing! It's wild! With the jar of split peas, you mash those, and I'm not really sure if you put anything in them, as I don't tend to make those either when I make Jiggs Dinner.
Now, just from reading my comment, it probably doesn't sound as fabulous as I'm hyping it up to be, but that's just because I'm not the best at explaining it all. Just know, that it's my favorite meal, my comfort food, and if I was ever on death row, I'd ask for Jiggs Dinner, made by my mom, and my nan (my mom's mom).

Whats insane is that most of the solid elements in a crock pot would've made a bomb ass stew (yes August, even the apples) but the liquid elements and the execution were just too incongruous, for lack of a better word

@@annieworroll4373 Not really. You can put apples in a stew with pork and it works well. Carrots, potatoes, onions and celery is pretty standard.

Never tried Apples in a stew, but apples, pinaples, or other fruits are key ingredients in a lot of curries.
Wasn't really a fan of it either, until i tried it. Its very different, but can be awesome.
And i think it could be good, in another long simmering dish, like a stew.
If the ingredients that are use makes sense then yes but in jack case he just desrepect the meat,fruit, vegetable,and every other things he's been adding.

@kevinz.9824 I hope she starts covering Jack soon, those vids would be brilliant 😂
Actually, there are stews that use fruits and yes, soda- or even beer. In Spain and here in the Philippines, we have stews that use beer or Sprite in order to add flavor and help with softening the meat. It gets lost in the soup itself, so you can't distinguish it from the other ingredients. Another dish we have here is ribs with a special sauce made with Coke, and another version of the dish is made with strawberries.
Some pork dishes do use apples, either to stuff the meat, sometimes a smaller piglet or a large muscle of a grown pig, it can accompany japanese curries to balence out the spiciness and one can use it in pies as a texture inhensor (apples, especially tart ones contain a lot of pectin). But of course, it's not a meat pie, curry, nor a stuffed roast. If he would have put meat and veggies, and nothing else, everything would be more or less fine as long as properly cooked. The vegetables usually contain enough moisture on their own, especially tomatoes, to form the sauce without the need for the huge addition of liquids, especially if he forgoes the potatoes.
The pepsi, sugar, beef base, caned soup and soup mixt are very much unecessary. If he plans to plop it into the oven, then I would not recommand putting cornstarch at all, since cornstarch is useful in pan sauces. The Westershire sauce is a perfectly fine addition to his list of ingredients, and salt and pepper are also perfectly fine and even recommanded, and the tomato juice can add some wanted moisture.
Also, he had so much packaged stuff. I think Jack might have a dissorder regarding his taste buds.
God help us all if Jack ever makes a 'cure for a hangover' recipe video

Every time August uploads, my mouth forms a smile that I’m not really sure I could make myself. It’s like…such a great feeling that can only be brought only by August.
Truly one of the best things Jack's ever made; pork and apple stew is a thing that can taste really good.
What ruins it is the can of Pepsi (pure sugar, dear god) and the massive amount of V8, to the point that all this is gonna taste like is sweetened V8. It's still top-tier for Jack, though. Before he added those two things, if he'd just gone with more stock (personally for pork stews I like to do a mix of beef and chicken)... this would've been downright decent to good.
Devils advocate, cola can help tenderise meat. There are other options I prefer and I doubt Jack understands the science behind it.
While there were certainly some choices I wouldn't make, this is one of the better things he has ever made. Heck, just the fact that its cooked all the way through puts it at the top of the recipes from him.
