  • Sam is back from the supermarket with charcoal oh how do you think we're

  • doing the live million in one sense I'm doing wrong

  • I don't know if I'm doing this right or not

  • Cheers good dog

  • well good morning good morning guys morning guys greetings again from el

  • bolson argentina we are still here we are we extended our stay because we

  • liked it so much we liked it so much and our host was so nice we get to hang out

  • with them a bit more yeah there's a big event happening tomorrow tomorrow the

  • biggest asado in all of Argentina huge party yeah how could we leave you we

  • miss that and miss it's gonna be in Cholila which is only like an hour

  • away so it's gonna be really fun yeah but anyway it's the purpose of

  • today's video we are going to be attempting to make our very first

  • Argentinian asado bbq yeah now we've ate a lot of asados and parrillas courtesy of

  • your dad and in some restaurants in Argentina i we have never attempted it by

  • ourselves and yeah we're totally winging it it's just the two of us we've gone

  • out and bought meat we've got wine and so yeah this is going to be our attempt

  • at making Argentine asado bbq for the very first time watch a couple Gringo's and

  • see what they can do that's luck so guys this is the grill this is gonna like a

  • barrel yeah it's super cool it's super rustic and what I love about it is like

  • you can adjust it because of course you do this at first to probably put in your

  • wood and everything in you if you want you want the meat to cook slowly you can

  • obviously keep the girl okay well I'm glad you figure that out because and

  • we've got some little chimney type thing happening for the smoke to escape

  • I should also show you guys that our host was kind enough to leave us with

  • lots of wood not only here but here and there's another huge stack over there

  • down yonder so I think what we're gonna do to start it is combination of some

  • newspaper I've got some twigs which will act as kindling and then yeah we'll

  • eventually throw in some bigger pieces of wood let's get going and we have dog

  • Oh joining us as well I think he's gonna love the asado this he knows what's up you like

  • guys I see you out here with the grill he's gonna get a lot we're gonna feed

  • him really well and yeah we bought them just for you

  • for you oh so we've got little pieces of wood kindling in the barrel I also

  • picked up some flyers from the supermarket and we're gonna use this to

  • start our fire we've got matches we've got limited

  • amounts of paper some twigs some big blocks of wood and look see how it goes

  • it went out LT won't work

  • so guys we managed to get the fire going I'd say it took us about 10-15 minutes

  • the minor struggles okay it's going it's going it's going it's going

  • that's the key point and it's not going out all right guys so let's talk about

  • the meat we went to a carneceria a butcher and picked up four different

  • items I feel like this is enough for two people so we're not really planning to

  • have any side dishes or salads or anything like that it's just gonna be

  • about the meat windy it's getting windy and whether we can cook it

  • so first up chorizo this cannot be missing when you make a barbecue an

  • asado chorizo commune cocido mm-hmm I guess

  • homemade common sausage that's what it means here we have FALDA de Vaca

  • which is kind of a bony cut but we're hoping to feed some of it to our pet

  • brands we also have a Costa later a cutlet with a little bent out of shape

  • in the bag it's got bacon so I should mention all of us came to less than 10

  • US dollars all this meat yeah ten bucks good price happy with

  • that okay what cannot be missing from an asado get to the meat good empanadas so

  • we've got four different kinds I'm gonna dive in here for you so this is the

  • human one so it has like orange cheese I'm not excited for that one and then

  • this one is the can't take carne would you have spicy meat in there guys mmm

  • the place where we pick these up from they are an outstanding bakery

  • yeah I'm have high expectations this one is the outer arabe yeah I guess it's the

  • Arab empanada and find another house that specific sheep just regular look

  • it's got lots of meat I wonder if it'll have lamb last but not least this is the

  • rock afford to cheese yeah he's look wonderful I can't wait to dig in so 2 &

  • 2 2 & 2 so I gonna try the the spicy meat one the

  • carne picante yeah Oh dr. C it's spicy this is a Roquefort cheese is that a bit

  • like blue cheese how would you describe him yeah powerful too rich cheese

  • odorous to you mm-hmm these are incredible

  • empanadas yeah these are from marina yeah I can't recommend this place more

  • highly we had a really good pizza there and you know what we also bought some

  • dessert from there as well no let's see what the Arab empanada in case

  • it gives our asado that for some reason doesn't work out we're gonna have nice

  • empanadas and dessert a little bit sweeter okay lots of onions the reasons

  • in it I'm not seeing a reason yet I was expecting raisins - okay last but not

  • least the meat though one this is what you like to have for breakfast in Peru

  • mm-hmm and Peru I have we meet us for breakfast yeah I was expecting it to be

  • more orange in color like a darker corn color and a bit drier less mushy yeah

  • right hey let's see

  • hmm that's not bad not bad at all so it seems like half of it is mashed corn

  • mm-hmm and for the other half you can actually see the little grains of corn

  • stuff good selection guys I feel like the dog is looking at us wondering what

  • is taking you guys so long you started this a asado like an hour

  • and a half ago where's the meat I feel the same dog oh I feel the same update

  • so we've been burning some wood we've got some charcoal happening yeah well

  • you use the heat of the charcoal to cook your meat but it doesn't look like we

  • have enough maybe we just didn't put enough wood in there yeah it's actually

  • gonna go buy some charcoal and we just want to be certain that it's gonna but

  • what has it hasn't been it hasn't been a dud no I think maybe I may add the chorizo

  • sauce while you're gone okay well I'll be back I've got about a

  • 20-minute errand

  • guys I've got to say I'm pretty proud of myself I don't know if I'm doing this

  • sprite or not but the sausage is cooking so I can't be way off

  • if the sausage is cooking either way as Sam is back from the supermarket with

  • charcoal with the Charco oil reinforcements the adventures continue

  • now the meat goes go on how do you think we're doing what

  • are your thoughts guys and impressively a million and one thanks for tuning

  • wrong so please in the comments or don't whine situation tell us what did you got

  • wine situation so we have a Malbec from 2014 we went to a vino taco here in the

  • city and the guy helped us pick a so he said this is great local wine as from

  • 2014 Patagonia Argentina so it is exactly from is it from San Patricio de

  • Chan yaar nail can no can the province of neuquén province of the okay pretty

  • more can eat though so we just grabbed our chorizo they're ready that's the

  • first thing that went on you look fantastic guys I think they're cooked

  • well enough they're crispy crispy on the outside yeah well so we're gonna have

  • these while the meat and the chicken continues cooking I'm just gonna

  • reposition this yes good idea

  • she ching ching ching cheers to the first Argentine bbq asado we've ever made

  • and so far the wine has been fantastic the chorizo is look good good honestly

  • this is one of my favorite wines we found in Argentina and it came from a

  • vinoteca on so maybe they do have a few gem that's hiding out in there so

  • this was called three Mohini thought that means the firstborn this wine is

  • the firstborn I think this guy said it was aged in a special barrel barrels

  • nobody I don't know how to say that in English it's a type of probably Francis

  • um and it remains it spends twelve months and those wood barrels give him

  • yeah yeah then afterwards it remains a minimum of one year in the bottle at a

  • controlled temperature and also controlled light it's a good wine and

  • try it if you can't be mechanical one more I still I still can't believe we've

  • been able to somehow pull this off so far and the meats cooking nicely so dude

  • we managed to cook the chorizo and honestly I think we cooked it a bit

  • longer than we should have just because we were so worried that maybe we haven't

  • cooked it long enough well I know it's definitely long enough you put a bit of

  • chimichurri on it how is it so good we did okay pump to try the chorizo guys

  • when we've had Argentine asado that your dad to me this is usually the first

  • thing that's ready sometimes we do a choripan leave this into bread hmm

  • I'll say we cooked up pretty good yeah crispy on the outside

  • yeah I'm still juicy just definitely been cooked long enough so we're halfway

  • there to becoming Argentine would you say well if someone was actually filming

  • the entire process it would be embarrassing but yeah we have got it

  • going we have it's working and this is for dog Oh who's been waiting patiently

  • in the Sun yeah he hasn't bothered us for food he hasn't come whining or

  • flying or anything he knows the good stuff no pawing Oh

  • things take time right

  • young young dog oh now costeletta did we pull it off we cooked it well and we

  • sure did then loading it with chimichurri

  • even the bee their interests they're like oh I found asado

  • though I want a piece of that bad we've kind of pulled it off somehow I'm gonna

  • give the dog the bone dog was in luck though looks a little bit like a gremlin

  • personality to gremlin that Oh yum yum yes yes amigo stitch boo booing huh look

  • at him good dog Oh guys the meat keeps on

  • coming this is the next batch this is the brocheta you were nice big chunks of

  • chicken rolled and bacon but wait for it when you cut it open there's more bacon

  • inside double you never get enough bacon right it's very juicy of tender

  • I just had a bite of that Tia that's one of my favorites from the whole meal

  • that's just like that's so good such a good idea I feel like I'm hitting a wall

  • yeah well this meat like I'm entering food coma zone where my eyes are closed

  • well we have one more cut and don't forget we have dessert too yeah I need

  • to watch myself you need to you need to get some caffeine in there or something

  • chicken for the gremlin

  • putting those new knives to the test tough gosh it just cuts over all will be back soon all

  • right and getting all the meat off of the bone like yeah okay yeah we got

  • those at the Gaucho party a few days ago

  • with cuts it's called falda it means the alert hands down the star of

  • the show you like the bony cuts bony and fatty this is the best the meat around

  • this bone is just unbelievable oh good we went all out for dessert we got a

  • dozen of my sassiness line pastries would be the direct translation they're

  • basically little cookies with all different types of fillings toppings we

  • have cherries jammed in Sicilian chocolate glazed white chocolate it

  • looks amazing I'm gonna try this little one back here it's like a mini Alfajor

  • stuffed with dulce de leche very crumbling I'm just the perfect light dessert snack

  • to finish off a wonderful meal and I've got something to show you now - I mean

  • what did you get I got sorry it's like I think it's it's like alfajor - so no artists

  • a now artisanal dozenal with a glaze it's so dense it feels like I'm holding

  • like a hockey puck that's but it's put in half good all the dulce de leche in

  • there so fresh actually the outside I thought it might be meringue but it is

  • white chocolate mm-hmm this is like at a higher level than what you get from the

  • prepackaged awful force even from some of the better companies like this is

  • just cut above it's not good we survived we did that

  • was fantastic yeah took us a little while to get

  • things going but I yeah it just turned out so much better than I thought the

  • meat turned out really good we cooked it well we made sure to cook it like it was

  • well done it was well I know I don't really prefer to have my a little bit

  • more juicy but we just want to make sure and so yeah well wine was great

  • empanadas were fantastic what really made this meal good - was the fact that

  • we picked up things from that bakery empanadas the

  • cookies oh all very good and the meat cooks so well yeah I have to say I think

  • we just appreciated everything a little bit more because of all the efforts like

  • we spent the whole morning in town gathering the items we needed curious

  • also hold it I mean including like including getting all the supplies that

  • was like a whole day procedure obviously if we were a little bit more skilled and

  • prepared it would be faster you could probably arrange this in half a day but

  • overall it was so much fun and hope you guys enjoyed this Argentine asado
