Obviously a lot of thought, research, planning and time went into this video, and it was very helpful. Thanks for sharing it all with us! We appreciate you!😊
Jen!! This your best video yet! I use to cook like this having 20 years of experience. Watching you on this video, I feel the food network needs to pick you up for a segment showing realistic time, budget and taste. Bravo 👏 this was a great great video ❤
The estimated time I usually ignore. I'm slow at chopping veg, stove temps vary, distractions happen (like someone insisting a box of printer paper must get opened while you're about to finish ingredient prep 😠...it totally could've waited until food was simmering for 40 min...) The food is ready when it's ready. Sometimes it's quicker than anticipated, sometimes you totally misjudge yourself and its much slower than you expect, or a piece of equipment doesn't work and you need plan B (oven vs bbq).
One thing people never factor in is the clean up. I usually cook multiple meats and vegetables for the week on my bbq grill and reheat/prep for meals. It works for me.
You should do more of these types of videos with different people's meal prep. Great concept for a video. I could also easily see how a novice home cook would be overwhelmed by this. I have been cooking for years and it made me tired...lol
I recently learned the America's Test Kitchen hardboiled egg method that steams the eggs using a steamer basket and I'm OBSESSED- even brand new eggs peel perfectly every time because of the science behind it (putting fridge cold eggs into the hot environment shrinks the membrane away from the inside of the shell). Especially if you're prepping and going to peel them immediately after they come out of ice water bath, as occasionally a shell or two out of batch will crack, but it's so worth it for the lack of headaches. And by only boiling an inch of water it goes soso much faster. Can't recommend it enough, I'll definitely never make devilled eggs with any other method.
This is impressive and really interesting. I'm a fairly experienced cook and I couldn't have managed to keep all these plates spinning. I also cook 95% of my meals but I make fairly large batches of soup, chili verde, frittatas, casseroles, gumbo, etc that I can freeze and/or reheat so I actually only cook every few days. Good job. 👍
I LOVED this video concept! A really honest attempt and review of these “It’s so fast or so easy” recipes and/or chefs online. I do enjoy his recipes; especially the sauces he comes up with but I did see most of his meal prep as just inspiration bc I know there’s no way it’d be that fast or simple. And I’m the daughter of a caterer! I’ve picked up hacks and skills but shake my head at some of the overly ambition claims out there just imaging a novice bitting off more than they can chew and getting discourage. Again love love loved this!
Jamie Oliver had a series of 30 minute meals and he filmed them in real time. A friend of mine cooked alongside him and was finished in under thirty minutes. So it can be done.
I'm a chef in Iowa City and do a lot of meal prep since I'm pretty busy. I was intrigued by his challenge and found the food to be good but to your point, it took much longer than an hour. Thank you for bringing awareness to the time it takes to shop and prep as well, we also need to understand that he has a staff working behind the scenes. I found your video to be excellent and give you 5 stars 🤩
I read an article once saying most recipes lie about how long it takes to caramelize onions. They claim it takes 10 minutes, whereas it takes more like 20 minutes +. I started timing it and it seems to take me 25+ minutes.
Such a fun idea! Loved everything from your outfit, to the kitchen being your backdrop and the idea of the show may be a new niche for you! Bravo! Well done!
I found this very interesting! I never do meal preps but I think I should start! I was very impressed with what you got done in that time even if it wasn't under an hour.
Now that was a workout. Lots of the meals look so good. You did an excellent breakdown of this food prep. Things are not always as they seem. Thanks for sharing. Did see quite a few recipes i would like to give a try. See you soon!
Even any simple recipe I see with a start time to a ready to serve time I always double for myself…I must be a slow cook or slow at prep or something…I’m 62 and am a fairly experienced cook…I use to get frustrated by this but finally know it’s just my truth 🤣….This experiment of yours would have taken me literally all day even if I had all the equipment needed- which I don’t. Good video!
His recipes are pretty great and a lot of them are very approachable but he does have fine dining experience so things CAN get a little fancy dancy sometimes.
So glad you're keeping us really real with this video! I just found his channel a week ago, coincidentally, and found myself thinking, "I must be doing something wrong because it takes me 1.5 - 3 hours to do that!"
Great video Jen! So professional, and well done. That was a lot of planning and prep work for all of those dishes. Thanks for sharing, I appreciate you! 🥰
I know it's a lot of work, but the production value of this video is really top notch! edit: Why does he make the sandwich like that?! At least slice the egg a little.
I’m late to the video per the usual but this was such a smart concept. I watch and love Josh, have his first book, but his meal prep videos seem unrealistic to me. I wish I could do it that fast hahaha!!! And I am a self proclaimed FoodNetwork graduate plus a momma of 4 boys…cooked almost every night while they were at home (just became an empty nester 😢). I appreciate your dedication to doing all this…I am sure there was a lot that went into it. Also I absolutely love watching your ingredient prep and grocery hauls…the best!!! Cannot wait to get your cookbook..,Just ordered it!!! 💚💚💚
I too was going to say I could never make her meals in less than an hour and a half. But you’ve inspired me to get the sous vide out. I am so tired of chicken breast being dry.
New here! Great videos, and I'm looking forward to watching more! I haven't had a chance to go through any other videos(yet), but I love this concept of trying out other creators' meal preps
I watch you and Josh on the regular. You really nailed this assessment, well done. I say to my hubby all the time if I had all the extra $$$$ equipment Josh has it would be great.😂 .I have both your cookbooks, yours I have actually cooked from.
One thing I do to save time is cooking hamburgers on my griddle. I can make 12 at a time. I would also cut that egg into 4 slices to cover the meat. It looks good in pictures the way he did it, so that’s probably why he did it that way. Good video!
Beyond excellent video Jen...very informative..and nice recipes and your advice that helps with creating these recipes..Also your creativity in editing is fantastic..Beyond a quality video that doesn't go unnoticed 👏
I know for me it takes awhile. You have to prep . That takes some time and then you have to cook and season. You may have to cool. Shopping and cleaning takes time as well.
Thanks Jen! I honestly don’t know why such videos like the one he did are posted. If you are a person who cooks a lot, then you understand all the work that comes along with the meals you want to prepare. Life isn’t magic and neither is cooking. That’s why the only thing I truly love to make is reservations!❤
Love this video! it's funny, but also the analysis is conducted seriously and in real time which is very useful...I didn't know this youtuber, it's funny he looks just like my next-door neighbor. Thanks for this video!.
I used to watch Joshua W when he was in that tiny kitchen and used cabinets to film his videos. He made some videos that made me want to try some new cooking adventures. My uncle, retired restaurant chef and now culinary instructor, gifted me his first cookbook when it came out. By that time I had stopped watching his videos but was excited. I immediately went back to his YT channel to see what I should make. While I am happy he is succeeding the video selection no longer inspired me. I have made a few of his recipes from his first book and they are meh, passable for effort and taste. Most of them I will never attempt because they seem fussy for fussy’s sake not for improvement but just to flex. Now with a staff of people behind him and managers, publicist, and media reps, he just seems unapproachable and uninspiring. I am happy that his hard work paid off and he is enjoying success but no longer someone I watch online. I did, however, thoroughly enjoy your video. It seems like the main reasons I stopped watching him were most of your complaints with this 1-hour meal prep concept, er illusion. And slow clap for the actual other roughly 3/4 time it took to accomplish the meal prep (shopping, organization/Mis en place, and clean up). Kudos to you for keeping it real for us working parents just trying to keep all the things afloat.
Sure it took him an hour to put together with all the help he doesn’t show that are involved. 🙃 Boiled eggs on a sandwich is much like using link sausage on a sandwich. It just doesn’t make sense to me.
Hi 👋 Jen. This was an excellent topic and I am so glad you covered it. I think anyone who watches cooking shows where there are time constraints believe that, ok they did this dish in 30 minutes so I can too. Wrong lol. They have people in the background helping them even though we can’t see them. This video showed me that it would take me about 8 hours lol 😂. I actually wouldn’t even bother trying it. This was very helpful and informative thank you Jen. There is just no way he made all of that in one hour. 🤗❤️🇨🇦
RE putting an entire single serving meal in one container: I do this because I don’t want to deal with multiple small containers. I just eat my cold items first. I know someone who eats it all cold because he doesn’t have access to a microwave at work.
I don’t think $101 for one week’s food is a good deal. R200 a month is more like it for a one person household. Three ate 3 adults at our house and I’m able to shop for what we like with a $350 monthly budget. I purchase most foods using digital coupons.
@@Jen-Chapin I might sound crazy? but I always went to the store with a list and a weekly meal plan. I saved money by buying only what I needed and when I got home, I processed everything I bought. Be it marinating meat or chopping vegetables and it was done. Then on Sunday afternoon after mowing the lawn a bunch of it was grilled minus the premade salads. I've always been a cook big clean once. The freezer is your friend lol!
Brilliant, Jen! Thank you for taking the time to do this - and it's so well done from an informative angle, but also from a professional/well-done production level! :)
back in the day, I said the same thing about 30-minute meals with our OG "home cook" Rachel Ray yes thirty minutes if you had excellent knife skills, access to any ingredients you needed, and an entire back kitchen of people being paid to prep and cook if you needed to including a professional kitchen LOL LIES i love Josh tho yay
I haven't watched this yet, but I just have to say I really think it does a disservice to the average person when a chef talks about speedy dishes. I can make this prep in one hour and I can do the 30 minute meal, but those times are legitimately only accessible to me because I am also a chef. It's also misleading with clean up, too as it's almost never factored into the time as well. I consider most of those videos to be a bit clickbaity because of those reasons.
I just had the chance to sit down and watch. I think this is a great review of the whole process, it's realistic and doesn't hide that, while still being fair to Josh and where he was coming from. Great video and I look forward to catching more of them as a new subscriber. 🖤
The man can chop an onion with his eyes closed. Girl that ain't me! His budget meals are also a scam.... I can't buy 1 tablespoon of cream, sorry. I do like his recipes but never pay attention to the time or price he exaggerates.
When it comes to shopping, you’re adding that into your meal prepping time? Lol I can shop online at my local Walmart and have it delivered and the shopping probably wouldn’t take me more than maybe five or seven minutes because basically I have everything in my list and I just click it really quick and I can order, a bunch of groceries max out of 10 minutes or less I would not be adding this into your meal prep because you can do this in advance before meal prep therefore should cost you zero time because you’re probably usually in bed while you’re watching TV or doing some other activity! I love Josh’s videos and yes, I don’t think they’re an hour for one meal prep but at the same time you break it down several different days to do those meals meal prepping isn’t that hard and it may be a little time-consuming but is sitting on your phone watching videos or playing games or anything of that nature as well 1:542:022:07
The breakfast sandwich looks terrible. Never use super lean turkey for sausage as it has no flavor and definitely wouldn’t use a hard boiled egg. Yikes. I find Josh to be too complicated - I have his books. I’ve watched his videos. I know he is a real chef but he does things too complicated.

I would love to see you do a one hour meal prep. Especially easy summer meals.
Noted!
I love this idea. When you said you were already an hour in just prepping the ingredients and supplies, I needed to sit down. 😂😂😂
Obviously a lot of thought, research, planning and time went into this video, and it was very helpful.
Thanks for sharing it all with us!
We appreciate you!😊

Aw thank you so much ❤
@@Jen-Chapin your welcome! Your amazing
I can't make a Rachael Ray 30 Minute Meal in 30 minutes so I am not surprised. Excellent concept for a video!
Me either!! 😂
Yeah, those Hello Fresh kits? Shoot. Takes me forever!
Rachael Ray? 30 ingredients in 30 minutes, in my experience.
I tried one of Rachel’s full meals and it took 2 hrs.
The estimated time I usually ignore. I'm slow at chopping veg, stove temps vary, distractions happen (like someone insisting a box of printer paper must get opened while you're about to finish ingredient prep 😠...it totally could've waited until food was simmering for 40 min...)

Thank you so much for doing this. I am an experienced home cook with a few years of restaurant cooking. It would still take me as long as it took you.

I've never heard of him.
He has over 9 million subscribers on RUclips and a best selling cookbook. He is an excellent restaurant trained chef.
@Notable2Nikki she still hasn't heard of him
His recipes are pretty great and a lot of them are very approachable but he does have fine dining experience so things CAN get a little fancy dancy sometimes.
Don’t feel bad neither have I..and doesn’t sound like we are missing out on much
@@Notable2Nikkiand?? Like we care..would rather watch sometime more relatable to real life not someone on RUclips who isn’t realistic
I loved this video, great job!
My second opinion. Do this again with the items that you recommended to purchase to save time. Salad dressing, cabbage and such! Loved this video!
Great video Jen!!!
So glad you're keeping us really real with this video! I just found his channel a week ago, coincidentally, and found myself thinking, "I must be doing something wrong because it takes me 1.5 - 3 hours to do that!"
Loved this concept for a video! Would love to see more like this!
You got it!

edit: Why does he make the sandwich like that?! At least slice the egg a little.
Great video concept. So many dishes!
I’ve ALWAYS thought that his “1 hour” prep looked like a half a days work!🤣
Verified 😂
The Instant Pot can be used as a sou vide if you don't have one.

I was surprised at how long it took! 😂
Loved this idea!! More videos like this please!
I would be interested in finding out how much it would cost to buy the items at Aldi.
This was interesting!!! Cook eggs in instant pot, perfect every time. 🇨🇦💕👍🐶

I’m a little confused by the title of this video and the ranking you gave him. It seems a little harsh saying it’s a scam with that score.
