Every comment I see says They wouldn't trust dollar tree meat. Look you gotta do what you gotta do. Life is expensive nowadays and unfortunately sometimes this is all people can afford. I just want to say I appreciate this guy actually showing you that you can make decent food with what little you have and what little you can afford.
@@perrysmajestic988 I had no idea. But I guess that's a really good sign of the economy that everything is more expensive at a dollar store. I'm being sarcastic
I don’t know how well that would work with the dollar tree meat because I think they put a whole bunch of water in it so that it weighs more and costs less, so the towel would be a combination of grease and water (maybe).
I grew up poor and I grew up calling this "Ghetto Burger", our nickname for Hamburger Helper, which we couldn't afford at times. If my brother was on cook duty that day, we named anything he made "Ghoulosh" cause it was kinda scary like a Ghoul lol. My single mother was so fun and creative I had no concept of poor or my family was even it until I was around 10 years old. She never let us kids see her sweat. 💓💞💕
Nah jit it don’t go down easy cause it’s ground mystery meat 🍖 from the 1$ store ! 😮dirty with parasites 🦠 it in ! 😮 huuuuman meat? Cat filet !? Does this hurt the dog !? Mother eskeliard untisk and father brown smith 😮
Same with Dollar General or any other big chain general store, you're paying more for the accessibility. Better to just drive the extra some minutes into town sometimes, all depends on gas prices and how far out you are. I'm way out in the sticks so unless I'm wanting to drive another fourty minutes the old DG is my only bet lmao
For real, I actually spend less at Walmart and get more + healthier food. Dollar True used to be good but the $.25 raise is really noticable and some stuff is just straight up more expensive at dollar tree (even before the $.25 raise.)
Bro. Your charisma is outstanding. I am now a professional chef after having to feed a big family on a budget since I was 10 years old. This is a certified quality cheap meal. By the way, it doesn't "feed a family of 4 or 5" in my house. That goodness would be ALL ME! DANG she thick. Well done good sir.
So you could soak up the excess meat water with a paper towel OR you could turn up the heat, cook for longer to create brown bits on the bottom. Then deglaze the pan and BOOM extra flavour. Remember it's about developing layers of flavour.
@@aelivi Yea I thought the same before I tried it! Minced/ground beef is not prone to getting chewy because of the length of simmering time at the end. But yes, the process involves almost burning the minced/ground beef and then adding a liquid to remove the almost burnt bits. This extra step requires concentration and an openness to try new things to ultimately make food taste better!! 😊
When I was a boy my mom would mix ground beef and canned spaghetti and called it goulash. This video took me back 4 decades. I can taste my mom's goulash ❤❤
You are real m************ man!!! You didn't run out on your family your a provider! Thanks for showing us how to improvise! And take care of family God bless you and your family sir! 💥💯🙏😂
The dollar tree stores, in Ontario, Canada, do not have refrigerated foods. Atleast not that I've seen. But, great videos. I subscribed. Greetings and Respects from Canada.
When I was in my early twenties I used to shop at this little shop called save a lot. Man I could get a meal of chicken Kiev and rice for like 4 dollars.

Dollar tree meat is more expensive than the grocery store. Same with eggs, milk, everything in their cooler really

You really can't trust the meat at the grocery stores either 😆
Meat's meat when you're hungry.
You do have a choice, you don’t have to eat meat 😂 DT sometimes carries these vegan meat balls and they were decent.
Youre helping people without even knowing it ..
Love your content!
I wouldn’t trust that dollar store meat
If you cook enough eventually everything becomes edible 😂
Yeah, thats like buying dollar store milk
@@Bluwaffle10 *If I want dollar store milk, I'll just buy a qt of 1% and add another quart of water to it! LMAO! #DSmilk 🤪
@@ae-bd5gr *And let's be real... Garlic powder, Onion powder - and Salt - makes EVERYTHING taste better!!!*
That ground beef has beef heart in it lol
Another life hack. Save that grease covered paper towel and use it to start your charcoal bbq. Works like a champ

@@andrewsama311 I'm assuming he lets them dry out. The water will evaporate but the oils and fats will stick around.
You call it goulash...we call it ghetto hamburger helper.
Right goulash doesn’t have noodles or pasta
True
@danied605 Yes, it does. Also, there are literally 20 different ways to make it.

@@danied605 you’ve never had goulash without noddles. Cause goulash has noodles . What are you talking about ?
All my DT's got is a gnarly case of the sweats and shakes 😂😅
You'd trust it if it was all you could afford!
Yet 75% of the items he picked up you can get cheaper than $1.25 at Walmart 🤣
@@craigbond4909 my comment still stands based on that as well.
@@craigbond4909 exactly !

@@Ssally_Sskellingtonyou just didn't get the reference.
Everybody's so creative!
Tbh, Dollar Tree was a poor man’s food. Now it’s a dollar 25. Those pasta are cheaper in many supermarkets, cost under $1
FACTSSSS especially out here in LA where we are. it’s cheaper to go elsewhere 😅
True!! 😢

Same thing with their canned vegetables they are cheaper at other stores

thats just burning the meat and overcooking it then it would become too chewy

My stomach bubblin😅
@@aelivi You can't really overcook ground beef. Especially if you deglaze the pan
This is definitely the way to do it. Maliard reaction is 👑
I love and enjoy every minute of your content
That actually looks good 😊😊😊
Great channel, great content, thanks for sharing
"Im such a badass!"😂😂
I love the "DT" acronym
You know you got it going on, when you got the cup of green onions growing❤
Oh, yeah. This just reminds me of one of my favorite dishes growing up poor. That looks so good.
Love these videos. Can't wait to try some of the recipes
I remember The Wolfe Pit's episode on that ground "beef." Thats the only ingredient I wouldnt skimp on.
Oh hey, a fellow Wolfe's Pit enjoyer.
This ground beef is different then the one in that episode

Inlove this meal, my mom doesn't make it often but qhen she does we inhale it in a instant 😂
Your energy is relatable

Great work sir
You're a good man, you feed your family no matter what.
They'd b better off not eating. Look at what he's making

It is a 16oz Tervis brand tumbler
I'm from Russia
Ok cool??
I love this
U ARE A BADASS BRO 😂keep em comin :)
Never seen a Dollar Tree stocked so good.
you're probably like the coolest dad ever
On camera yeah
I work at dollar tree lol best place for snacks
I concur.... i would be worried about the meat from the dollar store especially with some states are now selling fake meat.
My mom called it "slop gooey"! Had it a lot when I was a kid.
We would cal that ‘American Chop Suey’
Also heard it called, ‘goulash’
yeah, goulash is already in the name of the video. thanks for the info...
I use DT frozen peppers and onion mix a LOT
Best dad
AMEN GOD BLESS YOU TWO AND YOUR FAMILY AMEN AMEN 🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏
I remember eating stuff like this for years.
My favorite recipe was making ground beef pilaf.
The UCLA shirt and the man shopping at DT is quintessential America 2023
My name is Cha Cha 😂
My name is boom boom boom
I can't believe I only found this channel yesterday.
Ok so. I make this, but add a ton of broth and turn it into a beef and tomato soup rather than a casserole, I love it lol
That’s creole beef then cheeseburger macaroni and cheese. I’m impressed ❤.
So good. Add a can of corn, makes it way better
Bro I need some 🤩
Looks good
You are the coolest subscriber
I kinda grew up with this kinda food cheap stuff thrown together to make a meal so this would do it for me
❤❤❤
Ur funny. I wish my dad was as cool as u
Dare you to come to Southern California dollar trees! all u will find are candy/chips and cheap Tupperware .
I personally love goulash
Value meal. Looks good.
Goddang that looks good
You do great meals 😊😊
i live in a poor family my favorite poor man's comfort food is gravy and biscuits
That looks so good
Looks pretty good amigo 👍
I recently had triplets so this stuff is gold. 😂
I drain my grease with paper towels at work all the time.thought I was the only one lol
❤❤
It's like cooking with my dad, he always made his food look so fun to make. Tysm for posting these, I really appreciate it.🤘🫖♥️
Survival at the Dollar Tree! Thanks for the ideas!
Yummy
💜💖💖💜
Thats exactly how i be pronouncing Italian sometimes 😂
I wish you were posting these when I was a bachelor! I was living off of tortellini with red sauce and peas...
THAT LOOKS DO GOOD 🤤🤤🤤
Groooooooooosssss
LOVE this!
That looks good!

That dollar store is huge
Can't wait to try this one
little heavy handed on the seasoning ova there !
Yummy 😋🤤
I want to buy your cookbook!
this guy shreds every person who claims they can afford to or have time to cook. not to mention most of these items are often available at food banks.
that s*** still better keep me warm in the winter goddammit...lol
That does look good. I do use Dollar Tree, but when it comes to like hamburger meat. I just couldn't do that
My dollar tree socks! They never have stuff!
Never made goulash so fancy. I just brown ground beef and add prego marinara and then combine with pasta later on
Love it!
Yum
I definitely need a cookbook 😂
That’s a nice ass dollar tree
