Faceless Man with Fake Old West Accent Barbecues Baloney in the Snow

June 20, 4:17 PM
by Chef John, Cooking Examiner
 
 
I was surfing the web looking for a great barbecue video recipe to post in celebration of the start of summer, when I came across this. While it is probably bad form to goof on a fellow food blogger, I can’t help it. If David Lynch and his Grandpa ever made a cooking video, this is probably what it would look and sound like.

I don't even know where to start. This clip has it all - an affectatious voiceover, creepy rubber gloves, matching serial killer knife, a giant baloney (I really hope it's baloney), a quasi-porn soundtrack, and…snow? Having said all that, it actually looks kind of good, and I would have totally enjoyed sharing one of those sandwiches he makes at the end of the clip. Hey, is that a wood chipper over there?
