Matt, you’re so darn cute… I can say that because I’m an old lady lol. But your personality is awesome, makes your episodes entertaining regardless of what you’re doing. You make me laugh out loud at least once a day and no one can ever have too much of that. After all this time, i just figured I’d say that. Thank you!
When you have a pet to consider in your vanlife, getting a hotel room can be a matter of your pet’s survival. More than one vanlifer has had to use a plan B due to weather, including Cat Lady Van.
Well, I survived yet another North Florida hurricane, Hurricane Helene. Prayers to all currently being affected by this devestating Storm here in the U.S. 🙏🙏
I am super glad for you!! I on the other hand lost my home under 12 feet of water. Just trying to process it all. I live in Aripeka in Pasco county and we ended up having the dirty end and getting toasted. Happy for you to survive. This was a bad one.😢
Good evening Matthew, glad to hear you and Penny will be in the comfort of a hotel room for the heat wave. I personally couldn't handle 34 degrees without full on a/c!!! I am sure Penny was appreciative. ❤
Hi Matthew haven't had any power because of the hurricane but went to McDonald's and plugged in so I could watch this video 😊 must say the cooler weather looks better on you 😊 Thanks for sharing ❤
As someone that lives in a van in the States. I know the balancing act of searching for shade and needing the sun to charge your house batteries to be able to run the 50 fans needs for 90 degree fahrenheit weather. My goal for this winter is to figure out how to make summers not suck as bad. (I hate heat)
Mathew make no apologies for incorporating the use of hotels. Since my van isn’t anchored to the ground I use them for hurricanes /excessive heat and tornados just had a 3day stay for hurricane Helene worth every penny especially if pets are involved. 😎Linda
That’s why it’s VanlifePLUS - the PLUS is whatever YOU choose to make it 🥰- never “fake”. I was watching for that vinegar to go flying, with the curtain swooshing back & forth just like the old days. Glad you’re getting so much use out of the book, I may have to order one for myself - you’re a better cook than I am🤦🏼♀️. Take care sweetie 🥰💞😘🏴☠️🍀
ALWAYS do LUV hanging out with you and PRETTY Penny ...just LIV'IN THE LIFE!🎉. Cooking with Chef Matthew for the 'WIN' ...the meatball hoagie looked YUMMY!😋.
Steaks cooked in an air fryer are absolutely delicious!! Ever since having a steak cooked in an air fryer, it's pretty much the way I make all my steaks now. ✌🏼
Preheat the air fryer at 400* for 3 minutes. No matter what it says steak should be cooked on high heat so after the fryer is preheated add the steak, turn it on air fry , 400 for 7 minutes , flip and put on another 6 at the same temp. welcome to medium well done
I could watch your "quality content" for hours 😂❤ Someday I want to make the trip down to Cow-town for an adventure and to meet you. Love from Oil Country muahahahahah!
Matt you are amazing and need time for yourself. NEVER MIND the negative input from ? who cares move on and be you matt. a kind hearted person to all naturally. god bles you and all you do everyday. amen.🐞🦆🦨🐈🐈⬛🐱🐱☘🍀🌼
@@VanlifePLUS if you got one of those super portable folding ones maybe fasten it to the roof of Penny's poop palace so it would be out of the way? Hmm
Hi Mathew 😊 the last two days have been a small heaven of f.i.n.a.l.l.y. Autumn cool air here in Bronx NY. Your van is cool looking. And your video effects are still so fun - you putting on your flannel shirt... Best wishes our fave Canadians for happy holidays upcoming.
I use air fryer paper liners in mine Matthew. No food sticking, no mess or lingering smells etc. Get the proper baking paper ones, then after just throw away. FYI though… don’t put the liner in as you heat it up…. Cause FIRE!! You can guess how I know this… 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
@@christinamann3640 they are a little different. Think of baking brown paper but shaped either round or square. Honestly the best things ever. A lot of places sell them. Amazon do and I would think Walmart would.
For future steak cooking. The cooking time is longer for a thicker cut of steak. Filets are thicker than ribeye. Go a little hotter on the temp and a little longer on cook time. Yummy cooking! ❤
Another lovely vlog Matthew. I'm almost caught up. Ugh. Watching you get excited about jeans and a flannel made me laugh. Same here my friend, same here!
To use a meet thermometer you have to hold the outside of the stake and pierce the edge of the stake with the meet thermometer so that the thermometer is about 1 inch into the meat but not touching anything else
If you're going to do steak in an air fryer, and you want med or med-rare, you have to put it in frozen, not thawed. The amount of time will depend on the thickness of the steak. Those medallions you got, I'd suggest 400F for 6-7min, flip, add another 3min for med-rare. It'll be warm throughout with that juicy pink center and crispy edges.
Just add 2 minutes for preheating when putting food cold into the air fryer, otherwise some thicker products might not be cooked properly, especially with meat and chicken recipes. That's from my 5 yr air fryer experience.
Not sure why you want to put entiresandwich in air fryer, rather than just the meatballs, but you do you boo. I’d make them in frying pan. In house, i put them in slow cooker with a jar of spaghetti sauce but you obv can’t do that. I’ll shut up now and finish watching. EDIT: I take it all back. That looks amazing. 👍
What hotel is that?! Because sometimes I’ll even stay at a hotel on the hot days because I’ll die in my house during our heat waves. But I love that it has a kitchenette! Loving that! Decently priced? Because as of now, I’ll drive to Sundre and stay at the same type of set up in a hotel there, $74 a night! AND!.. they have a Burger Baron! Lol
I do have genuine leather bags from other brands luxrul I get what I want without paying exorbitant designer prices. That's the point. It's not about the superficial, it's about getting what you like at a price you like.
You , me, and my mom all said cupboard...👍my husb made fun of that and said its counter...they say potato ...we say pototo....LOL he always asked how does it stay on the cupboard....i guess we should call those cabinets...i said listen for the context...on or in😂

Hello. Just a little tip. You should wash your laundry bag with the dirty clothes so you are putting your clean clothes in a clean bag.
Great tip❤❤❤
I do this and it is definitely a great tip.

Steaks cooked in an air fryer are absolutely delicious!! Ever since having a steak cooked in an air fryer, it's pretty much the way I make all my steaks now. ✌🏼
Lmao! My bread is 70 degrees 😂 you crack me up 👍 thanks for making me lol
Good evening Matthew and Penny!!! Have a good week-end !
Matt it works on a pendulum inside the controller. The harder you brake the more it moves the pendulum.
Hi Matthew and penny glad you had a good time in the hotel penny looks so comfortable on that big bed xx
I’m glad you do what you do I am always looking forward to seeing your videos 🥰
I am going to have to make the meatball Hogie; it looked yummy! Glad that you and sweet Penny got out of the heat for a while.
If you make the meatball sandwich again try using garlic butter on the bread
💯😋
That sounds good
Oh how I love a video, when I can hear the Canadian pronunciation of the word pasta.
Yeah, i was wondering about that bowl 🥣
Good morning from Australia, enjoy the hotel later today 🎉
Slow motion makes everything more exciting.
Those binder clips are great for bread! Chips and anything you need to clip!
Hi Matt I have used meatballs in a pizza omelette with fresh tomatoes, peppers, onions and cheese! So good!
It’s interesting watching you cook in your van
Hi Matthew and Penny! Luv da vids!
Meatball sub looks so good! But you're killing me with the medium/well steak.
Howdy from Northern Arizona! It's rather warm here this week as well 😢. Sending love and light and positive vibes 😘
Down in Tucson myself all week is looking over 105. At least we aren't in Yuma😎
@@trentk7732 I hear ya! The heat is still here in October? WTH? Yuk!! 🤢

That thermometer scene was funny. I can relate as that always happens to me w steak. Great video Matthew…happy Friday :)
Hey Mr there are Aptos Bifocal Solar panels for cheap. 2 x 400 watt on roof would really help keep your power bank charged up ..
Cheers from Edmonton.
Thanks! I’ll have to look into those 🤔
Well PLUS = SHENANIGANS=QUALITY CONTENT. ❤❤❤
I love you Matthew. You are so funny. 😊
Great idea to use the air fryer to make a meatball sub 😋👏
This video is posted Sept 27 the first of winter according to the calendar is December 21 or 22 but Canadian winter starts when it full well pleases
Yet another great meal was created😊
Love that cat❤

sounds like matt needs one of those folding dolly carts to lug heavy stuff into the hotels and around in general
Problem is where would I store it when I’m not using it? I’ve thought about them before but I don’t have the room currently!
@@VanlifePLUS if you got one of those super portable folding ones maybe fasten it to the roof of Penny's poop palace so it would be out of the way? Hmm
Your NOCO battery charger should have a repair mode that will reset the BMS on your LiTime batteries.
I live in Victoria and was Imagine Cafe on the Inner Harbor and Revita Tea was in their cooler.
They’re at superstore as well
Uh oh - you might be liking something he likes 😂
Thank you...I will try that sandwich in my air fryer. It sure looks great...
Love your video!💕

15:56 - and there goes the curtain… you gotta stop making me laugh out loud while I’m trying to eat my breakfast. Nearly choked on my oats! 😅
Lol about the curtain, then we were like " cut the sandwich in half" then you said 2 small ones😊
