00:00
Yo, Will, what's for lunch?
00:03
Sauced ribs, baked beans, and hash brown casserole.
00:06
And shouts to my mom, RIP to my mom.
00:08
She always had this recipe with the baked beans
00:10
and the hash brown casserole.
00:12
I can't wait to see Donnie whip it up,
00:13
because he's an absolute savant, façade, savant,
00:17
in the kitchen.
00:18
It's going to be a great fucking time.
00:19
All right, that works.
00:20
We'll start with ribs.
00:21
That's a lot to make, but we're going
00:22
to make the ribs today, guys.
00:23
Let's get cooking.
00:24
I'm a private chef, cook for money, yeah.
00:30
Guys, welcome back to What's for Lunch,
00:32
4th of July edition.
00:33
We're joined by Will Compton.
00:34
Will, welcome to the kitchen.
00:36
It's a long time coming.
00:37
I know, I'm fired up.
00:38
We've been trying to make this happen for a while.
00:39
I love ribs.
00:40
OK.
00:41
I have a couple of Pinterest recipes I have saved.
00:43
OK.
00:44
Apple, jalapeno, it's my specialty.
00:46
OK.
00:47
But I'm excited to see what you have.
00:48
Do you make your own sauce, too?
00:49
Are you a sauce?
00:50
I follow the instructions.
00:51
All right, well, yeah, this is a,
00:53
I want to do 4th of July, so there's
00:54
no better person than Will Compton.
00:56
All America, you know, I think Nebraska boy,
00:58
just to get us fired up.
01:00
Just two all-American guys just whipping
01:02
up some ribs in the kitchen.
01:03
Yeah, so we'll do, we'll knock out the ribs today,
01:05
and then part two, we'll do the sides.
01:07
We'll do that casserole, and we'll do those baked beans.
01:09
So to start, we have beautiful pork baby back ribs here.
01:12
Do we wear gloves?
01:13
Nah, clean hands are better than gloves.
01:15
I'm not that dumb.
01:16
This is going to sound real pussy, but I'm a gloves guy.
01:20
With what, everything or raw meat?
01:21
I have gloves.
01:22
A lot of stuff.
01:23
When my wife makes me do the dishes, I fucking like,
01:24
let me, I'm more of a scrubber.
01:26
I'll do the scrubbing.
01:27
You don't like touching raw meat?
01:28
I'll get you gloves.
01:29
Real pussy, that's real pussy.
01:30
You're the first guy to ask for gloves,
01:31
but I'll get you gloves.
01:31
You're also the first person to ask
01:33
for three recipes in one.
01:34
I'm high maintenance.
01:35
I'm high maintenance.
01:36
Back even before we settled on these three,
01:37
you had like a list of like seven or eight or nine.
01:40
Like the first one was long.
01:41
Hey, what up, Frank?
01:42
We're making ribs.
01:43
Make sure you don't charm up.
01:44
Yeah, about that, you're not telling me that.
01:46
Yeah, we got Frank in here making some ribs with us?
01:48
Frankie, you can jump in this if you want to.
01:50
Why not?
01:51
I have to get my walk-in.
01:52
Okay, all right, he's a busy guy.
01:53
Just to, just to appearance by Frankie.
01:57
Hey, that's a good popping by Frank, yeah.
01:58
You understand?
01:59
Make sure you don't burn them.
02:00
You want to take the membrane off?
02:01
You good at this part?
02:02
Yeah, for sure.
02:04
It's the best way to do the membrane.
02:05
Because I'm not going to lie,
02:06
I go to war sometimes with the membrane.
02:07
Really?
02:08
I don't think I do.
02:09
Dude, I will show you the easiest possible way
02:10
you'll never go to war with it again.
02:11
We'll pat it dry, we'll start.
02:13
You take a paper towel, find like a corner,
02:15
and the towel literally is your grip.
02:19
Just like that.
02:20
That's such a fucking cheat code.
02:21
It's the easiest way to do it.
02:22
You'll never stroke.
02:23
I'm an idiot.
02:24
You never have to use your knife.
02:26
Cutting it again, peeling it, why do I have to do this?
02:28
Yeah, paper towel, just use that,
02:30
that's your grip, and boom, you're golden.
02:32
That's a tip for you guys watching at home.
02:34
All right, what do you like for your rub?
02:36
I have a pretty standard, traditional rub,
02:38
but if you want to throw anything crazy,
02:39
if you were to throw anything crazy,
02:41
what's a Will Compton addition?
02:43
You got your staples, maybe some garlic powder,
02:46
some onion powder.
02:47
I like a little sweetness with my ribs.
02:49
I don't know if we're doing that.
02:51
We're doing that in the sauce.
02:52
Brown sugar?
02:52
Brown sugar, yeah.
02:53
So we got some sweetness,
02:54
so we're going brown sugar, good amount of salt.
02:56
I go chili powder, cayenne.
02:58
You want to give that a mix for me?
02:59
Absolutely.
03:00
What's your go-to if you're cooking for the family?
03:02
Nah, don't, use your fucking hands, Will, come on.
03:05
Get your hands in there, get them dirty.
03:06
You cook for your family?
03:07
You cook for your wife?
03:08
Oh, it's ribs.
03:09
In the summertime, I like to smoke ribs.
03:11
Yeah?
03:12
Yes, but you know what I found a new love with cooking?
03:16
Smash burgers.
03:17
Yeah, the thing I love about smash burgers,
03:18
you can't really fuck it up.
03:19
Like, it's going to be good no matter what.
03:20
And it's simple.
03:21
It's so easy.
03:22
All right, Will, I think that's pretty good for our rub.
03:25
Give it a rub, give it a rub.
03:26
Rub that in.
03:28
You got to treat it nice.
03:29
Do you make breakfast?
03:30
I feel like a big dad movie's making you pancakes,
03:31
French, do you do any of that?
03:32
Yes, come on now.
03:33
Big breakfast guy?
03:34
Big breakfast guy.
03:35
Eggs, bacon, breakfast tacos.
03:38
We'll get a little breakfast quesadilla
03:40
going every now and then.
03:41
Now we're talking.
03:42
What about when you're playing football?
03:43
Like, what was the jump between your diet in college
03:45
versus once you were in the league?
03:46
Oh, dude, so when you're in high school
03:48
and you think you're eating correctly,
03:50
and you're like, oh, wheat bread's better than white bread.
03:52
Then you learn about the enriched flour
03:55
that's in basically everything.
03:57
You just learn how dumb you are as an athlete
03:59
thinking that peanut butter sandwiches
04:00
and milk at the end of the night
04:01
might not be the best thing to gain weight.
04:03
But when you get to college, like being at Nebraska,
04:05
they have people, like a nutritionist,
04:07
that kind of like measure all your,
04:09
you do a body comp, you do blood work,
04:11
and they kind of prepare a diet
04:13
around like what your needs are.
04:15
Okay, and once you got to the NFL,
04:16
how much better then was the food from college?
04:18
Probably a downgrade.
04:20
Now, Vegas, the Raiders, they are A-plus
04:24
when it comes to their kitchen.
04:25
It kind of depends on where you're at.
04:26
Like, Washington, when you first got there,
04:29
it was just a buffet style.
04:30
They'd have a red card, a yellow card, and a green card
04:32
for if it's healthy or not.
04:33
Really?
04:34
Yeah, and you'd only have about two options
04:35
within each card.
04:36
Damn.
04:37
And that was just straight, scoop it out of the metal,
04:39
put it onto your plate.
04:40
That's like a game before game meal,
04:42
or is that just in the facility?
04:43
That's facility, every day.
04:44
That's how you're eating every day.
04:45
Did anyone that you played with have private chefs?
04:47
Like, have their own personal living?
04:49
Oh yeah, yeah, several guys.
04:50
You ever have one of those?
04:51
No, not a private chef.
04:52
I would do like delivery meal services
04:54
that would help like, you know,
04:57
I wouldn't just be going off of my feelings every day
05:00
because then you're kind of just eating fast food
05:01
or it's like survive in advance.
05:03
You're like ordering Uber Eats all the time.
05:05
So I would do like a delivery meal system.
05:06
The boy Taylor, he's got an incredible chef.
05:09
And those guys are like hosts,
05:10
like on Thursday nights or Friday nights,
05:12
like linebacker dinner, O-line dinner.
05:15
That's pretty sweet.
05:15
And they would have an entire spread
05:17
that's like all the good tasting stuff,
05:19
but it's like somehow a Whole30.
05:21
Yeah, well, damn, well, there you go.
05:22
Yeah, so that's what happened to private chef.
05:23
You can take the gloves off.
05:24
You're good with those.
05:25
Or leave them on if you want.
05:26
Hey, if you want to leave them on.
05:27
You know what, I'll take them off.
05:28
No.
05:29
Gritty guy, we'll take them off.
05:30
We'll get gritty now.
05:31
So what we're doing now,
05:32
I have some garlic, apple cider vinegar.
05:34
I'm just going to peel up an onion.
05:35
That's all going to get wrapped up.
05:37
So this is going to go on the rack
05:38
and then this will all be underneath.
05:39
And so it'll steam with the apple cider vinegar.
05:41
It's going to steam.
05:42
That's all going to get softened.
05:43
The garlic, the onion will release their beautiful flavor
05:45
and then that'll flavor it from the bottom up.
05:47
So that will get wrapped one more time
05:49
and then we'll put that in the oven.
05:50
But it also depends on what you're doing.
05:51
Like with ribs,
05:52
they don't need as much time as say like a brisket
05:54
or like the wrapping and the way you're cooking it
05:58
actually affects it so much more
05:59
and whether you're getting smoke rings
06:00
and this and that.
06:01
With ribs, the science isn't as drastic of like,
06:03
oh, it's wrapped.
06:04
It's not wrapped.
06:05
There's a lot more fuckery that goes around
06:06
when you're doing pork shoulders,
06:07
when you're doing briskets,
06:08
when you're doing other things like that.
06:10
With ribs, it's kind of more foolproof.
06:12
Do you like your ribs with like a little bit of bite
06:14
or do you like them to just fall off the bone?
06:15
I kind of love when they fall off.
06:16
Okay, so yeah.
06:17
So that also affects like how long you want to cook them or
06:18
some people like tender ribs.
06:20
I like fall off the bone ribs.
06:21
All right.
06:22
And then these will go in the oven.
06:23
We're going to do about a hour, 45 on these.
06:26
Give them a check.
06:27
This is where the magic happens, boys.
06:29
And while those are going in the oven,
06:30
we can actually get started on our sauce.
06:31
Not everything goes as planned.
06:32
You got to learn how to adapt.
06:33
That's true.
06:34
That's what I mean.
06:35
To be versatile, like the Pepsi.
06:36
That is.
06:37
You have them in wild cherry, classic, all phenomenal.
06:40
Even when you get fountain,
06:41
when you get that fountain Pepsi from say Taco Bell.
06:47
Okay, we're making sauce.
06:48
Pepsi Bustin' with the boys is open for sponsorship.
06:50
So the same seasonings that we're putting on the ribs,
06:53
we're going to use as our base.
06:54
Let me just make sure this isn't too salty.
07:01
Perfect.
07:03
Just going to check and make sure
07:04
there's not a lot of salt in this.
07:06
Oh, that's phenomenal.
07:07
It's good, right?
07:07
Yeah, it's really good.
07:08
We do want to start by just kind of toasting
07:09
some of these spices.
07:10
All right, and then we're going with apple cider vinegar.
07:12
And then this is where I like to go.
07:13
This is a little Asian fusion here.
07:14
I go soy sauce, a little oyster sauce.
07:16
It's like a little chili crisp and some Worcestershire sauce.
07:19
Go ahead, throw that in there.
07:21
Don't be scared.
07:22
Throw a little party.
07:22
Yeah, so a little Pepsi zero sugar goes in here.
07:24
Every crave-worthy bite is a little bit better with Pepsi.
07:27
So I'll add that.
07:27
That's going to bring it together.
07:28
The ketchup, just to bring it home.
07:30
All right, those are looking good to me.
07:31
And this, we kind of want it to reduce more
07:33
so it thickens up,
07:34
but this is good for what we need on that.
07:36
What the fuck is going on here?
07:38
Normally this phase is under a broiler.
07:41
Never, I haven't seen a flame thrower brought out for ribs.
07:44
We're just doing the flame thrower method.
07:46
Usually like to finish it off,
07:47
you put it under the broiler,
07:48
which is the direct heat from the top of your oven.
07:51
This one doesn't have one, that's great.
07:52
So I'm just doing it like this
07:53
so that we'll get a char from.
07:54
This shit makes you feel like a man.
07:57
You got to cut into these fuckers.
07:58
See, now we have that bed of all that,
07:59
those onions, garlic, those just stay there.
08:01
We're done with that.
08:02
This is another little hack.
08:03
All the pan, all that fat that came off
08:05
while it's cooking,
08:06
this can go right in the sauce.
08:09
Adds another layer of flavor right in there.
08:10
Let's go.
08:11
Is it time?
08:12
And just dive in.
08:13
Yeah, they're going to be hot.
08:14
I'm willing to burn my tongue for this.
08:15
It's falling off the bone.
08:16
All right, this is part one of the 4th of July special.
08:19
I don't know if there's a part two,
08:20
but Will and I are going to try to film
08:22
the casserole and the beans,
08:23
scheduled for midday.
08:24
It has to happen.
08:25
It has to happen.
08:26
We'll do it regardless.
08:26
If I have to fly it to you, we'll make it happen.
08:29
But I'm not sure if they'll come out back to back,
08:30
but if not, it'll be a late summer special.
08:32
It's good all summer.
08:33
A lot in store for you guys.
08:34
A lot in store for you guys.
08:35
You know what, Will?
08:36
These ribs will taste a lot better
08:37
with a little Pepsi Zero sugar.
08:39
So I'll get you a Pepsi there.
08:40
I got myself one.
08:41
Crack that open.
08:42
All right, Will.
08:43
Cheers.
08:44
Cheers, brother.
08:48
Cheers.
08:54
Fuck, man.
08:57
That's pretty good.
08:58
Legit.
08:59
That's really good.
09:00
You need me to rate it?
09:01
Yeah, go for it.
09:02
Give me a rating.
09:03
Give me a rating.
09:06
You don't get much more tender than this.
09:08
Not to where it's like awkwardly falling off the bone.
09:11
Just enough to where it's falling off the bone.
09:13
This is a 4.5.
09:15
Out of 10?
09:17
It's a 4.5.
09:18
I'll take that.
09:19
I mean, if it's out of 10, I don't know.
09:20
But you know what?
09:21
I'm hoping that's out of five, Will.
09:22
And guys, remember, every crave-worthy bite
09:24
tastes better with Pepsi.
09:26
That's gonna do it for this episode.
09:27
That's ribs for the 4th of July
09:29
with Will Compton in the kitchen.
09:31
There's plenty more coming, though, guys.
09:32
So stay tuned.
09:33
We'll see you next time.
09:34
Peace.
09:35
Dude, great ribs.
09:36
Legit.
