OK. A Brit here. Love the way you made the distinction between shepherds and cottage. Spot on. This is one of my favourite meals, either with lamb or beef. BUT (you knew there was a but) sweetcorn has no place here. Other than that, nothing but glowing praise for you my friend. I'm learning so much from you since I found your channel a few months ago. I've always known that cooking food is one of the greatest shows of love.
I'm from the US and the corn seemed out of place to me as well. I just made a cottage pie today, made a proper mince with red wine and all. Only peas here for added veg.
Okay okay okay! So i watched this recipe this morning and I was salivating so I decided to make it today! I'm a vegetarian so I made a few swaps like green lentils instead of the meat and OMG - hand down THE BEST Sheppard's pie I have ever eaten in my life!! You sir are amazing, it was so beautiful and rich and just cosy and happy and I am so so happy I discovered your channel! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Can't wait to make all of your other recipes 😍😍😍😍😍
Victor from Langley City, BC Canada 🇨🇦 here. I just wanted to first and foremost thank you so much for your wonderful cooking channel. At 43 I lost my wife suddenly, found her in the am lifeless, got our (I'm a "step" father but hate that word), beautiful 7 year old daughter out of the house that morning, and have been trying to provide a loving, supportive, Godly home ever since. It's hard brother, really hard. I'm 50 now, and she's 14, and any dish I've done from your channel is loved!! Yes, something about a fantastic, simple, homehand comfort food meal does wonders. This and a good meaty pasta sauce is a definite go to, alo g with a chicken pot pie. God bless you, take care of yourself, and go feed yourself 🙏❤️✝️
This is probably one of the most underrated cooking channels in RUclips. He goes simpler, more traditional, but gets the job done every single time. Keep up the good work!
A lot of his stuff is relatively simple, you're right, but he goes into detail and theory, so you understand *why* you are doing things. Not just blindly following instructions, and that means you can apply those lessons to other things you may cook. It's a really great channel.
I'll never grow tired of this channel. Definitely my favorite cooking channel on RUclips, but what makes me love it so much is the attention to detail and the bond you create with your viewers. When you talk, makes me feel like you're one of my closest friends. I almost never take the time to comment on RUclips videos, but I simply can't not interact with you. Congrats on another great recipe, keep doing your thing! PS: you also helped me a lot with my English as I'm not a native speaker (I'm Brazilian)
Made this yesterday. Followed the recipe perfectly and it was AWESOME. My buddy's 15 year old that won't touch anything with veggies in it ate two servings. Thank you so much! Love this channel.
I made this for dinner last night and I thought it was delicious. It reminded me of being at a Pub. The pie had so much flavor, the Guinness, the thyme and rosemary. The seasonings were perfect. Thank you for sharing another great recipe. I look forward to trying more of your recipes.
I absolutely adore the Kobe tradition you pulled in the beginning, NEVER STOP DOING IT. This is actually a shepherd's pie recipe I'm going to try, I've searched far and wide for one with corn and this is it. Thank you!
Another great vid bro. As an Irishman I condone this recipe. (apart from the sweetcorn) Its a dish created out of necessity by subsistence farmers or tenant farmers growing what they could to get by, at its basic its just beef/lamb/venison with whatever root veg you could grow topped with mashed potatoes.
You have an incredible spirit and soul my friend!! Your videos are therapy!! I studied culinary arts and yet you teach me something new EACH video, thank you! Sending good vibes and hoping your week turns around!! ❤️💕
There's such a relatable human element tied into the food made in your videos. It makes cooking approachable for people without experience and enjoyable regardless of skill level. I love that you don't even edit out some of the mistakes (the onion crying face was amazing haha) you just roll with it without skipping a beat. I hope some day you land a show akin to a modernized version of Mr Rogers or The Joy of Painting because it would be great entertainment. Thanks for the work!
I think I was a big fan of the channel before this, but something about this episode made me love the channel. I used this recpie, and adapted it to be a vegitarian versions with lentels and mushrooms as my wife had a doctor asking her to eat less meat at the time. The pandemic was full on shortly after this and I took time to really get good at cooking, largely based on your videos. Now I'm starting to cook again after spending a couple of years going hard on a small business which is now in the place where I can take one day a week to work from home and enjoy cooking while I do so, and this is the recpie I am going to make for my wife tomorrow. Thank you my friend.
I'm from the UK. Whilst the UK doesn't have the best dishes in general, or that many... this is an absolute killer and easy to customise... a lot of people just make it traditional but I add spices, beef stock, all kinds of stuff to enrichen the flavour of the beef mince and my god... it can be one of the most delicious things you ever eat. Also super easy to sneak a lot of veg and goodness in
Ok, so I made this last night, and it was absolute heaven on a plate. If anyone hasn't made this yet you are missing out. I substituted dark beer for smaller amount of IPA and more stock. Truly phenomenal recipe.
#ForkDon'tLie Shout out for Kerrygold cheddar and butter! Got rid of my TV 10 years ago, radio 4 years ago, quit newsfeeds 3 years ago, and then got serious in the kitchen. My mental health has never been better, so Steve, your advice is spot on.
Looks delicious and with Winter just a couple of months away, I’m ready. Love the way you cook Stephen and your outlook on life. Thank you for another tasty recipe.👍✨
I made it last night and it came out more than delicious!!! Me and my husband enjoyed it so much. I'm so glad I did the same as you. I actually made enough for 3 batches. Yeeeeeiiiiii!!!!!
This was so good I made it again for my kids and grandkids. But my son came up with an idea for shepherds pie stuffed baked potatoes, so I baked the potatoes and scooped out the skin filled with the meat mixture and topped with the mash and cheese and baked like that. We all loved it!
Wholly wow I can't believe how good this is and I just made it. I did use dried spices instead of fresh Rosemary and thyme. I added a pinch of chipotle pepper spice and smoked paprika. Love your message, and love your recipes, and love the love you send out in each video
Absolutely incredible video. You always hear critics say, where is this ingredient. Or no corn in cottage pie. I tell those people, you do you. This looks amazing and I will be sure to make it this coming week with St. Patrick's day coming. Thanks for sharing!
Your cottage pie is just like my mom's...she always said ' sorry, it's cottage pie ' we loved it. When thing's were better money wise we still asked for it...Mom was our best!!!
I had this growing up - my mum also made the beef mincemeat version too. It was my favourite meal AND we always called it "shepherd's pie". So I'm not changing that now. Coming from the north of England it was pretty indigenous there - so I think you might be overstating the Irish roots. Of course I'm certain you get great shepherd's there too! Your version sounds great - will try on this New Year's Eve and report back. You add more condiments and add cheese and a yolk to the mash, which I'm very interested to try.
Oh wow!! I haven’t made shepherds pie in years. And I absolutely agree, it’s a very comforting dish. I’ll have to make this with winter quickly approaching. Thanks for sharing!!
Found you channel recently and I’m soooo glad I did. You’ve got a unique vibe and I haven’t found many new cooking channels in a while. Anyway, I think you explain how I feel about cooking so well. People don’t understand why I like to make dishes that take so much time, prep, steps, etc. But it’s because I love it and it makes me happy! My favorite hobby by a long shot. Much love 🤘🏻
Dude - I love you. Thanks. Your approach to a cooking channel is very close to what I've imagined doing. I never would have done it anyway, and if I did - you would still be better than me at it. So, cool. You're not focusing on the actual recipe so much as you are on the concepts of the dish. And the occasional reminders of when to go nuts and when not to, when to be precise and when not to. For this dish, the detail of the fact that the mashed potatoes are only a part of the overall thing, so keep them stiffer than you would and not so stand-alone perfect as you would, is key.
Seriously…I’ve found myself watching Chef Stephens videos…and damn-near nothing else….and it’s easy to see why… simple, informative, specific and thoughtful… amazing stuff… and the food just looks TO DIE FOR…. 5 stars my man…well done…. You’ve done your family name well…
I’m actually having the hardest few weeks of my marriage/pregnancy. Watching this video really opened up to me and pushed me to distract myself from all the problems and negativity I’m dealing with. I really needed this I feel like you are talking to me. 💝
I used to get sweetcorn in mine during school dinners, it was probably just the school trying to get more veg into our diet but it wasn’t bad! I enjoyed it
That's how we make it in Québec, Canada. Look up "pâté chinois", which means "Chinese pie" in French. It's called like that because it was originally made as cheap food for the railway workers.
Thank you Steve for explaining the difference between shepherds pie and cottage pie. I'm a brit who lives in America and not a lot of people understand the origins of this dish.
Love the show. I'm a home cook and watching verifies I think I know what I'm doing. Technique might be different, but it gets the job done. Go Giants!!
I really like your style. I cook much like you. The die hard Irish commenters just don't understand that all recipes are a variant of the original. Cook on!!!!🧆🍻🍽
Making this right now! Except I made colcannon potatoes instead of just mashed. I had the colcannon potatoes on St. Patty's day, so I remembered how much I loved them and wanted to use it for shepherds pie. Omg....SO delish! Thanks for your awesome recipes and videos.
Glad you covered this, took me forever to figure out how to get the meat “savory”. I determined Worcestershire sauce and/or dry mustard was key. My niece and nephews love this! Def will be incorporating most of your technique. 💜
Always looking for ways to improve what I'm doing and the beer came to mind. First one I've seen so this and I feel like I was on the right track. Great job yo!
I made this yesterday, and after making the bolognese and the chili several times it was simple to execute. I've been buying cottage pies from an English restaurant in town for the last year and decided to make it myself. It's awesome! I didn't add the egg yolk to the potatoes as my son is allergic to eggs, and I'll probably use red wine instead of Guinness next time just to see how it tastes. Overall, this recipe is a home run!
in england we dont put sweetcorn, thats a good idea though, but i think it probably works best with the beef than with a shepherds pie, also i think using the stout to deglaze is also a good idea, usually we would use wine or beef stock. i grew up on home made shepherds pies and cottage pies and i think a lot of brits my age did too, its an all time classic. Also something to look into is fish pie, very similar dish with white fish, sometimes prawns, sometimes some smoked fish in a white sauce topped with a creamy mash and finished in the oven, my mum always made it with a mix of cod and smoked haddock. now i'm all grown up i have a new appreciation for the expertise that my mum knocked out classic dishes like this on week nights and always had it ready promptly for dinner. I recommend the wine, then you can wash it down with a glass of the same wine, that works really well.
You're so inspiring ❤x it's been a difficult time but watching this gave me a great comfort! I feel the same when I'm baking 😊 just focus on making me & the people around me happy x thanks for the video and the recipe, will be trying it out at some point next week! ❤ stay strong, stay happy & stay healthy. X
Looks great, in Canada Quebec actually it is made with veal pork and beef cream corn and regular canned corn mashed potatoes and no cheese,like you say eve one has it’s own recipe,with lots of butter in the potatoes, like your version will definitely try It is really comfort food Thanks👋🇨🇦❤️
Luv your videos! I definitely will be trying this dish out, I luv shepherds pie since I was little and my grandmother made it. Hated cooking growing up, didn’t fall in love w/ cooking till I was married w/ children. Now they’re grown, so cook for my family and friends!!
I really enjoy your channel! I’m waiting for your version of a tuna melt which is a favorite weeknight comfort food. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that you decide to share some wisdom on this dish.
If it’s your fav, you should share your recipe! I like dill, celery and green onions in my tuna salad, and cheddar on my melts, with some tomato slices if they’re in season :)
Great job. As a Scots-born Aussie of Scots-Irish descent, I don’t care that you call it Shepherd’s Pie. My dad used to say that shepherds tended their sheep, they didn’t eat them, so it’s fine to use beef mince ;). The corn is of course an abomination, but, guess what, we don’t have to put it in our own pie, so let’s not complain...! Only one criticism: they are not ‘dimples’ you are cleaning with the peeler, they are ‘eyes’... ;)
I know the corn is frowned upon! But if you enjoy my show at all and respect my opinion, you’d try it for me. In America, a secret Summer treat is fresh corn on the cob that you cut the corn off the cob and mix it into mashed potatoes and it is one of the best things ever. That’s why I had them. They add a sweeter pop to it than just the peas. I think it goes perfectly with the dish. I’d love do hear your thoughts
@@NOTANOTHERCOOKINGSHOW Thanks for responding to my comment man! Love your channel! To the matter at hand: I reserve my right not to have corn, but will defend your right to have it! ;) If you reread my comment, I have said as much... ;)
I'm British, looks spot on, although the sweetcorn is a bit weird, no one does that, also I prefer a nice heavy-bodied red wine, like a malbec or cabernet sauvignon to deglaze and add depth to the mince. Beef stock with beef (Cottage pie), Chicken stock with lamb (Shepards Pie).
I think the difference is cultural and preference.. Corn is big in the US,but it also depends on which State ur in..U have 50 States In a massive country,and each one may possibly have their own take on cooking certain staples.. But u were right about the wine,a more traditional approach,and probably employed in North Cali,wine country..
No offence intended, but this comment just makes me really sad. Someone making a “Shepherds Pie” (no, it’s a Cottage Pie😤) for “St Patty’s Day” (really, NO, it’s St Paddy’s Day😤)🤬🤬🤬 That said, I hope you had a wonderful meal & a lovely day.

For me, food is love. . . This channel is the embodiment of that rarity that is Unconditional Love. Thank you!
That’s so lovely to hear ❤️
@ you REALLY had to bring politics to the table?!
Omg! This is exactly how I feel about this channel ❤️
Okay okay okay! So i watched this recipe this morning and I was salivating so I decided to make it today! I'm a vegetarian so I made a few swaps like green lentils instead of the meat and OMG - hand down THE BEST Sheppard's pie I have ever eaten in my life!!
You sir are amazing, it was so beautiful and rich and just cosy and happy and I am so so happy I discovered your channel! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Can't wait to make all of your other recipes 😍😍😍😍😍

Probably the most sound advice I’ve ever found on the internet. Thank you. Recipe looks great too.
you’re the sweetest. this looks like a really good way to cheer everyone up: the unity of food. peace and love from me to you, dude
Made this yesterday. Followed the recipe perfectly and it was AWESOME. My buddy's 15 year old that won't touch anything with veggies in it ate two servings. Thank you so much! Love this channel.

That tip at the end is the truth. Love how deeply you connect with cooking and share that joy with your viewers, Much love.
I absolutely adore the Kobe tradition you pulled in the beginning, NEVER STOP DOING IT.
This is actually a shepherd's pie recipe I'm going to try, I've searched far and wide for one with corn and this is it. Thank you!
Right?? I love the corn in it too! I’m debating on whether to leave the peas in or not though - not the biggest fan of them.
Love you for the kobe intro bro. Respect.
Another great vid bro. As an Irishman I condone this recipe. (apart from the sweetcorn) Its a dish created out of necessity by subsistence farmers or tenant farmers growing what they could to get by, at its basic its just beef/lamb/venison with whatever root veg you could grow topped with mashed potatoes.
I spent my teenage years living in UK 🇬🇧, and this brings me some of the best memories!!! Thank you so much! I will DEFINITELY be cooking this soon
You have an incredible spirit and soul my friend!! Your videos are therapy!! I studied culinary arts and yet you teach me something new EACH video, thank you! Sending good vibes and hoping your week turns around!! ❤️💕
Another winner! I have some leftover brisket and now I know what I’ll do with it.
Keep on keepin’ on, man. Your videos are a source of inspiration, and they brighten a gloomy month. Thank you.
There's such a relatable human element tied into the food made in your videos. It makes cooking approachable for people without experience and enjoyable regardless of skill level. I love that you don't even edit out some of the mistakes (the onion crying face was amazing haha) you just roll with it without skipping a beat. I hope some day you land a show akin to a modernized version of Mr Rogers or The Joy of Painting because it would be great entertainment. Thanks for the work!
Feeding others is my favourite! Super awesome comfort food recipe!
That “Kobe” intro was heartfelt
I can’t get enough of this channel. Keep doing you man, I’ll just keep enjoying the delicious meals I steal off ya.
The soundtracks are always amazing on here.
wow, just what i needed today. Hate Less, Cook More. thank you for this all-time comfort food. keep cooking. awesome channel!
I think I was a big fan of the channel before this, but something about this episode made me love the channel.

Also super easy to sneak a lot of veg and goodness in
As fellow persin from the UK I'm not sure what planet you live on but your entire statement is utter BS!
@NOT ANOTHER COOKING SHOW 15:38 into the video is TRUTH. Feeding yourself and others good food brings emotional detox for me too. Well done sir!
Ok, so I made this last night, and it was absolute heaven on a plate. If anyone hasn't made this yet you are missing out.
I substituted dark beer for smaller amount of IPA and more stock. Truly phenomenal recipe.
Detox through love via your gift. THAT is a blessing of a tip.

Shout out for Kerrygold cheddar and butter!
Got rid of my TV 10 years ago, radio 4 years ago, quit newsfeeds 3 years ago, and then got serious in the kitchen. My mental health has never been better, so Steve, your advice is spot on.
Looks delicious and with Winter just a couple of months away, I’m ready. Love the way you cook Stephen and your outlook on life. Thank you for another tasty recipe.👍✨
I love this channel is one of the best cooking on RUclips.
Love from Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦❤️❤️❤️

This is the first video I've seen from things channel. Dude seems like a good guy, I'll keep watching.
Wholly wow I can't believe how good this is and I just made it. I did use dried spices instead of fresh Rosemary and thyme. I added a pinch of chipotle pepper spice and smoked paprika. Love your message, and love your recipes, and love the love you send out in each video
Absolutely incredible video. You always hear critics say, where is this ingredient. Or no corn in cottage pie. I tell those people, you do you. This looks amazing and I will be sure to make it this coming week with St. Patrick's day coming. Thanks for sharing!
I didn't know about this video! I just made the pie the way you would've made it based on your other videos. Spot on!
Im an Irish man in Ireland, this is a fancy shepherds pie 😂 we wouldn't be putting the Guinness in but it's common for a restaurant to do it
Your cottage pie is just like my mom's...she always said ' sorry, it's cottage pie ' we loved it. When thing's were better money wise we still asked for it...Mom was our best!!!
I made this for my family and it was AHHHHHMAZING! Thank You for this
The intro! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
TahitiaRose so good! Absolutely nailed it.
Made this for dinner tonight. It was the best shepherds pie, I’ve ever eaten. Thank you so much for the recipe

I just have to say: thank you. I don't need therapy, I feel calm after watching you cook.
I've made cottage pie a bunch of times but this recipe looks stellar, will have to try. Thank you.
I love this so much! The recipe, the sentiment... it is very inspiring to watch you do what you love. KOBE!!!!
I love the way you made it. Great job Steve!
Love your message in spreading that love of feeding others. Excited to make this recipe soon. Great job man!
Oh wow!! I haven’t made shepherds pie in years. And I absolutely agree, it’s a very comforting dish. I’ll have to make this with winter quickly approaching. Thanks for sharing!!

I’m actually having the hardest few weeks of my marriage/pregnancy. Watching this video really opened up to me and pushed me to distract myself from all the problems and negativity I’m dealing with. I really needed this I feel like you are talking to me. 💝
Sorry to hear you’re having a hard time! I know the feeling. Cooking always helps!
As a Brit this looks great! Not sure on the Sweetcorn in there tho, I’ve never seen that before
Trying to get those veggies in
I’m also against the sweetcorn haha
@@maxiuxoxo Yep me too, never used Guiness in a cottage pie either. Looks great though.
I used to get sweetcorn in mine during school dinners, it was probably just the school trying to get more veg into our diet but it wasn’t bad! I enjoyed it
That's how we make it in Québec, Canada. Look up "pâté chinois", which means "Chinese pie" in French. It's called like that because it was originally made as cheap food for the railway workers.
Love the channel and the passion!
Love it! Can figure it all out after the first 60 seconds. That was a sweet montage!
Thank you Steve for explaining the difference between shepherds pie and cottage pie. I'm a brit who lives in America and not a lot of people understand the origins of this dish.
Just made this. Holy moly. It was phenomenal. Thank you!
Love the show. I'm a home cook and watching verifies I think I know what I'm doing. Technique might be different, but it gets the job done.

Just finished my 3rd batch of this greatrecipe,this one is for St. Patrick’s day.Thankyou! 🇨🇦🍀👍
I made this last night, i started at 4pm and it was done at 8. Cooking the meat took forever to build up that crust but it was worth the wait. Thanks

I've been buying cottage pies from an English restaurant in town for the last year and decided to make it myself. It's awesome!

Will you do a video similar to the pantry video, but for your fridge/freezer?
Interesting watching this today - 3yrs later. Thank you for all you do
Best channel on RUclips man!! You inspire me time after time! Keep inspiring others Stephen!! #RIPKobe
Great recipe and video really inspires people to get cooking this tasty dish
You're so inspiring ❤x it's been a difficult time but watching this gave me a great comfort! I feel the same when I'm baking 😊 just focus on making me & the people around me happy x thanks for the video and the recipe, will be trying it out at some point next week! ❤ stay strong, stay happy & stay healthy. X
This looks delicious! I was ready to eat my phone. 😂
The difficult part is always the "putting the mash on top of an almost-liquid layer" - I think you mastered it Steve!
Just put it in a piping bag (or a ziplock with a corner cut off) and pipe it on!
Let it sit for awhile and the liquid will thicken, makes it way easier.
You can put your mince into your baking dish and pop it in the fridge until sets. It's going to heat through in your bake. Cheers!
Looks so good! Now I’m craving it. I couldn’t agree more, comfort food during stressful times. God bless
It truly is a dang tasty recipe I have eaten. Congrats on doing it this great way . Thank you for sharing.
Cooking this now!
You are the BEST ❤️
Looks great, in Canada Quebec actually it is made with veal pork and beef cream corn and regular canned corn mashed potatoes and no cheese,like you say eve one has it’s own recipe,with lots of butter in the potatoes, like your version will definitely try
It is really comfort food
Thanks👋🇨🇦❤️
Luv your videos! I definitely will be trying this dish out, I luv shepherds pie since I was little and my grandmother made it. Hated cooking growing up, didn’t fall in love w/ cooking till I was married w/ children. Now they’re grown, so cook for my family and friends!!
looks so good.
thanks for sharing
I really enjoy your channel! I’m waiting for your version of a tuna melt which is a favorite weeknight comfort food. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that you decide to share some wisdom on this dish.
If it’s your fav, you should share your recipe! I like dill, celery and green onions in my tuna salad, and cheddar on my melts, with some tomato slices if they’re in season :)
I have been getting ready to make my own version of cottage pie. After seeing yours i am going to simulate your version with my changes.
Great job. As a Scots-born Aussie of Scots-Irish descent, I don’t care that you call it Shepherd’s Pie. My dad used to say that shepherds tended their sheep, they didn’t eat them, so it’s fine to use beef mince ;). The corn is of course an abomination, but, guess what, we don’t have to put it in our own pie, so let’s not complain...! Only one criticism: they are not ‘dimples’ you are cleaning with the peeler, they are ‘eyes’... ;)
I know the corn is frowned upon! But if you enjoy my show at all and respect my opinion, you’d try it for me. In America, a secret Summer treat is fresh corn on the cob that you cut the corn off the cob and mix it into mashed potatoes and it is one of the best things ever. That’s why I had them. They add a sweeter pop to it than just the peas. I think it goes perfectly with the dish. I’d love do hear your thoughts
@@NOTANOTHERCOOKINGSHOW Thanks for responding to my comment man! Love your channel! To the matter at hand: I reserve my right not to have corn, but will defend your right to have it! ;) If you reread my comment, I have said as much... ;)
I'm British, looks spot on, although the sweetcorn is a bit weird, no one does that, also I prefer a nice heavy-bodied red wine, like a malbec or cabernet sauvignon to deglaze and add depth to the mince. Beef stock with beef (Cottage pie), Chicken stock with lamb (Shepards Pie).
I think the difference is cultural and preference..
Corn is big in the US,but it also depends on which State ur in..U have 50 States In a massive country,and each one may possibly have their own take on cooking certain staples..
But u were right about the wine,a more traditional approach,and probably employed in North Cali,wine country..
Will always be a fan
Best video yet. Love it.
OMG! Yummo! Going to have to give this a try. Such a big fan of your cooking style.
Great recipe and I like the little twists. From a curious cooking Irishman. Keep up the great work
I made this for St Patty’s Day and everyone devoured it!!!! Absolutely amazing 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
No offence intended, but this comment just makes me really sad. Someone making a “Shepherds Pie” (no, it’s a Cottage Pie😤) for “St Patty’s Day” (really, NO, it’s St Paddy’s Day😤)🤬🤬🤬
That said, I hope you had a wonderful meal & a lovely day.
Your vids keep coming up in my feed, and I love it. Normally not a big fan of vids with lots of talking. You are the exception 😉.
Just made this but with turkey and parsnips instead of potatoes. It was very yummy!! Thank you.
My first video from you. I just subscribed! Thank you for all of your time.
Gotta make this Wow great job
