Yeah, those kinds of videos drive me up the wall when they decide to make something ‘better’ when the ingredients cost MORE THAN THE DAMN FOOD YOU CAN BUY AT THE LOCATION.
His But Better videos often require the use of expensive, hard to find, or difficult to use ingredients or machinery. His But Cheaper videos are inconsistent and poorly thought out. He also gets several sponsors paying him for his videos. Conclusion: Joshua Weissman is an enemy of the working class
Every but better recipe I’ve made has only ever required ingredients easily found at my grocery store and most of them literally require like a knife, a stove, maybe a blender, and a pan…
As a person who's been in the Joshua Weissman community, the majority of the viewers aren't even there to cook but to watch food porn in the form of "B-rolls"
I hate how almost every chef butchers(no pun intended) Worcestershire sauce. Like when they fully know how to say it but they do it for the meme. Very cringey
I don't want to break Vernier, but chicken thighs are sub-$2 at the regular grocery store in middle America. $1.67 last time I got some, although they've likely gone up since then.
Not sure if I agree with Verniers numbers here, I'm pretty sure it's possible to meet Joshua's ingredient prices if you know where to look (and that's not the online catalogue of big chains), at least if you adjust it for inflation and the fact that local pricing can differ by state, however I think there's a fair point of criticism to be made in these videos whenever "but cheaper" entails the use of specialized, expensive kitchen equipment. I mean, the main target audience for a video claiming to make cheaper versions of takeout food would be college students, and how many broke college students do you know that have a food processor or generally any cookware beyond cheap aluminum pots and pans in their flat?
what i dont like about josua is the needless use of expensive ingredients. i mean he putted lobster in his paella!! and the fact that he doesnt take into account the dishes well have to clean later. he uses A LOT of dishes and equipment in his videos
I mean lobster isn’t mandatory and you can easily just use less dishes. Just cause he uses like ten+ dishes to measure everything doesn’t mean you have to also lol. Again when it comes to equipment most of of his recipes use a pan, a knife, a cutting board, and sometimes a blending device of some kind and when he uses something like a grill he often gives another option.
@@clowncore Half the spices he uses are staples in just about every kitchen that cooks things other than frozen chicken tendies and french fries lol. Sure it might be a bit of an upfront cost but most of them can be purchased at a reasonable price at any grocery store. He also almost always says that you don’t need to use certain spices or that you can buy a cheaper option. Just cause he went to an artisanal spice shop doesn’t mean you have.
hes fucking rich bruh what do you expect. doesnt he have a different series for people working on a budget. if you had a million bucks and you wanted to make some crazy ass insane meal ofc you're gonna use 300 dollar lobster or fucking gold plated goddamn steak because you CAN.
Ive never understood the whole "3 cents for 6 grams of salt thing", like its not gonna cost me that much at the store dude. I even brought this up and someone said "its per portion" like bro I cook for myself, and its not gonna cost what he says its gonna cost
@@somerandominternetuser5730 Yes the upfront cost is higher then the 'per portion' math Joshua uses, is he wrong about his numbers? Probably not (given that prices tend to fluctuate based on region/city etc. Like, how Joshua does it is actually a fantastic method for understanding how much food per-dollar you can make, doing the math per-portion allows you to truly understand the value of what you're buying.
@@somerandominternetuser5730 See but then the math would be off, if they tell you the full price of every item, each dish would suddenly becomes 10 or more dollars, which makes no sense, cuz you're not using the entire bottle of salt per-dish, y'know? Cuz using that math, it becomes 'cheaper' to just eat out every night. You don't math out portions by adding the total cost of all ingredient packages/containers.
@@somerandominternetuser5730 no but if you're not literally throwing out all the rest of the salt your dumbass just saved the money you used for salt for other times you cook since get this you don't need to buy salt again for the other shit you cook. Literally nothing difficult to understand about "per portion" your dumbass just picked the worst point to dislike about the but cheaper vids.
I haven't checked for the chicken but for the salt at least it checks out. 6g of salt being 0.03$ does match with 750g being 4$. Now you may say it's misleading, because you need 4$ not 0.03$ but it is not inaccurate.
Not touching the rest of the video, but I can't but ask: From which megachurch do you buy your salt, when *5 bucks a kilo* isn't enough? Do you condense it from orphan tears? I live in an expensive ass country and salt prices of less than € a kilo for the non-fancy stuff is standard (you got me, had to check, as it's pretty obviously quite low on the daily concerns). If anything Joshua was putting that overhead to your immense storage fees to store the box of your hand picked, separately packed, space dried and grain selected god salt. On the other hand, it's true that trying to emulate fast food with a three hour recipe is missing the forest for the trees. Dude should make a vid on how to rizz out the cheapest freezer pizza he can find.
when i watch Joshuas videos i dont take them as cooking tutorials i take them as entertainment. nothing he does feels like its something i could ever do myself and im fine with that. something like FutureCanoes videos are my type of tutorials, just using whatever he has laying around to vaguely replicate a recipe.
7:29 Love the content as per the usual, but i gotta say that Joshua wasnt wrong about the prices. Maybe where yall live things be expensive af but over here in texas i can get a 4.5 lb pack of boneless skinless chicken thighs for about $10 so it more or less checks out. Now as for the different price quotes on the same item in the same vid irdk lol. I tried to make it and it came out pretty good, in all i spent about $25 and had it for lunch almost for an entire week (ended up almost doubling his recipie but it worked in the end). Yall should give it a try an see if its up to your liking or na, was a great idea at the time for meal prep back when i had the motivation to do it.
Glad there are others who hate Joshua Weissman as much as I do. Just saw his atrocious “Thanksgiving Side Dishes But Better” video, it’s an obscenity to the American people.
I just unsubbed from JW's channel because he lies too much...He actually said that the Mcd's Filet of Fish sandwich was disgusting...Full Stop. Anyone who says that about thtat sandwich is just insane...His videos focus way too much on him and his opinions instead of the food...I don't know how that guy has 8 million subs when there are way better cooking channels out there.
The moment where somehow... the USS Yorktown returned really blew me away
I love his unadulterated rage towards people trying to make fast food gourmet
Yeah, those kinds of videos drive me up the wall when they decide to make something ‘better’ when the ingredients cost MORE THAN THE DAMN FOOD YOU CAN BUY AT THE LOCATION.
I hate it. It is trashy.

And usually butchers offer better pricing than supermarkets anyway.
I really have to say, that video and the prospect of seeing the uncut version made me a member
Not sure if I agree with Verniers numbers here, I'm pretty sure it's possible to meet Joshua's ingredient prices if you know where to look (and that's not the online catalogue of big chains), at least if you adjust it for inflation and the fact that local pricing can differ by state, however I think there's a fair point of criticism to be made in these videos whenever "but cheaper" entails the use of specialized, expensive kitchen equipment.

I love lemmino's song so much it brings back so many memories and yea good video too
Something tells me Vernier likes tacos, and british grass.
alright counter point: Joshua Weissman taught me how to make some fucking fire croissants with basically 4 ingredients
Counter point: hes insufferable regardless of food. No chef should think they’re as cool as he does 😂😂
@@WRG-bh8bz I mean fair but thats a lot of internet personalities
@@WRG-bh8bzThat’s a terrible counter point though lol. Like saying “his food is bad cause I don’t like him”

The problems with "but better" should really be obvious tbh
I'm here after seeing him flambé caramelized onions with bourbon in a caesar salad video. That just summarizes him as a 'chef'
I haven't checked for the chicken but for the salt at least it checks out. 6g of salt being 0.03$ does match with 750g being 4$. Now you may say it's misleading, because you need 4$ not 0.03$ but it is not inaccurate.
