@thejoemustgoon Deep Fried PB&J Sandwich Recipe 🥪🍓 w/ homemade Peanut butter, Joe’s Strawberry Jam, and a Brioche Loaf The childhood classic PB and J reimagined in the deep fryer. Topped with some powdered sugar, you’re in for a treat. 🤤 Asking people if I could cook them one meal, what would it be?! 🤔 Fire Escape Chronicles Pt. 135 🧯 Ingredients: Strawberry Jam -Strawberries -Sugar -Lemon Juice Directions: Cut up the strawberries, place them into a bowl, add sugar and juice of a lemon. Sit for 30 minutes and then simmer for 30 minutes while crushing or until jam like consistency. Cool in an ice bath or fridge before using. Peanut Butter - Roasted Peanuts -Salt -Honey -1 tbs vegetable oil (optional) Directions: Roast peanuts in the oven at 350 for 10 minutes. Cool down and add into a blender and blend until smoother. If you want a very creamy peanut butter, add in 1 tbs of vegetable oil and blend. Finish with honey and salt and blend once more back to desire consistency. Waffle batter -Any waffle batter recipe works here. I used milk, flour, eggs, butter, vanilla, sugar, salt, and baking powder. #pbj #fried #strawberry #Jam #peanut ♬ Back In Black - AC/DC

first thought - yuck.
Second thought after watching - YUM!
Deep fry a glass a milk and that's a right fine meal.
cool- give me the simple classic combo elevated chef over the pretentious ingredients chef any day…
…for me there’s prolly not enough savory. Patty & Mike’s used to do pb, nutella and fluff, bacon and caramelized banana grilled on their brioche bread. I’ve made it at home a few times. Brilliant…
Deep-fried anything tastes deep-fried and not too bad. See Tempura with random veggies and shrimp. See the fried Twinkie and Mars Bar craze of 20 years ago. See the old-time churros and simple doughnuts.
PB is slightly unique, but jelly doughnuts are not novel.
Now, shall I watch this on 'mute' or with the volume blaring all the way on full blast, since there's no other option with this obnoxious format?
NOT that.
These foodies spend hours and dollars to make a dish that one can eat completely in 15 minutes or less. Go figure? Just bc it's simple fare like a pb&j doesnt absolve this from being self indulgent gluttony.
I like the chef's passion.

You must be a big hit at dinner parties.
For me it would have to be a carne asada street, taco from a vendor that is surrounded by Mexican taxi drivers.
That's great. What a cook.
I wonder how much of our imagined enjoyment of foods ("If you could only have one meal for the rest of your life" and suchlike) is nostalgia-based.
There used to be an Italian restaurant in Seattle in the 1990s, the Ballard neighborhood (which shouldn't bode well for Italian food, being where the Scandihoovians lived), called Pasta Bella. This was, incidentally, the height of the "roasted garlic as spread" trend. My husband's and my favorite meal there, and probably our favorite meal anywhere at the time, was their bread service with a roasted head of garlic, a carafe of their house red, and their gorgonzola-walnut ravioli, which was served on marinara sauce and topped with Alfredo sauce. It wasn't an expensive place and we almost always had a two-for-one coupon anyway, back in our days of happy poverty.
The restaurant stayed open for years thereafter; I think it only closed shortly before? during? COVID. We would go there whenever visiting our Seattle friends and were never disappointed with that meal - and seldom ordered anything else or went anywhere else for Italian, even though by then we could have afforded it. I'm sure I've had pasta dishes since then that I have swooned over. But if I had to pick one pasta meal that I would want someone to make for me tonight, it would be that one.
Now I'm hungry. But roasted garlic at this hour of the morning?
"Second thought after watching - YUM!"
Funny to see that because I came very close to blogging a TikTok I saw right after that PB&J one. A guy had got his drink from Starbucks with "YUM!" written on it and (in a comic performance) got angry because everyone knows that means "you ugly motherfucker!"
I watched the prep. He definitely gave it a quantum jump and has the honor of having made the greatest pj sandwich of all time. Still, there aren't many who will wish to emulate his success. It's not a dog dancing on its hind legs, but it's a lot of work for a pj sandwich.
OMG. That looks amazing.
Quirky. I like quirky.
Personally, I'm noted among local Foodie "Strays" (people who follow me home, hoping I will feed them), for Yakisoba.
Sometimes, simple is the hardest thing. This would rate deep bows from any Working Man's Chef within miles of Shibuya Crossing.
I like food lists and make many.
Best Pizza - White-Table-Cloth restaurant in Italian neighborhood, Zurich.
Best Pizza Eexperience - John's on Bleecker St., NYC.
Best Cheeseburger - The Sink, Boulder, CO (circa 1962). Legendary. Perhaps diminished somewhat by increased acknowledgement of public heath standards.
