2:26
hardened over a little bit we're gonna

2:37
cups
2:39

yeah that's what's cooking bro i'm doing
8:37
a cup and a half of red wine and i'm
8:39

9:05
get those steaks going
9:07
uh spray that grill please
9:10
and um before you season these why don't
9:12
y'all just shake a little olive oil on
9:14
them
9:15
so they won't stick
9:19
yeah cause remember you know tenderloins
9:21
a very lean cut of meat
9:24
you need just a little fat so it won't
9:26
stick to the grill and
9:27
keep it moist and just salt and pepper
9:30
and don't forget a pinch of steak
9:32
seasoning
9:33

out when they're steaking all over us

dessert
14:14
uh and we're gonna make a baked
14:16
chocolate custard cup y'all and we're
14:18
gonna top it with butterscotch whipped
14:20
cream and this recipe was kind of
14:22
inspired by our grandmother paul
14:25
my grandmother your great grandmother
14:27
uh and she would have loved you dustin
14:29
if y'all had ever had the opportunity
14:31
you loved her she couldn't tell me oh my
14:33
gosh she could shake the pot and pan on
14:35
it oh but grandma liked custard she made
14:38
custards so let's get going it's super
14:42
simple don't be intimidated by a custard
14:43
we're going to show you how easy this is
14:44
the first thing i'm going to do y'all i
14:46
got a cup of milk and i'm going to do a
14:48
cup of milk and i'm going to do one cup
14:50
of heavy cream and i'm going to put this
14:52
in a saucepan and i'm just going to get
14:54
some that's over a cup
14:59
[Laughter]
15:03
[Music]
15:06
you want me to turn your own sure okay
15:08
that's something where you take care of
15:10
you and one cup of heavy cream one cup
15:12
of heavy cream now i know how to measure
15:14
liquid i'll get down here
15:16
yeah you're too tall you can't you can't
15:18
do it from above or you'll wind up too
15:21
much you got to get it eye level y'all
15:23
eight ounces
15:26
one cup of heavy cream now i want this
15:28
just hot enough because i'm going to put
15:29
some chocolate in here okay i'm not
15:31
going to cook it i just want it to just
15:33
i just want it stalled yep and what are
15:36
you doing over there dustin
15:38
i'm about to separate some eggs and get
15:39
some yolks four of them and then i'm
15:41
gonna put it in our bowl and add three
15:43
tablespoons of sugar and a pinch of salt
15:46
while dustin's doing that y'all i'm
15:47
gonna measure out one cup of semi-sweet
15:49
chips in this bowl i love custards do
15:52
y'all love it
15:54
i didn't start making them until kind of
15:56
later though because i was
15:57
seemed like doing a water bath and all
15:59
this was really too much trouble but
16:00
it's working oh it's no trouble you just
16:02
pour your hot water in there and as soon
16:04
as this milk starts to kind of bubble
16:05
around the edges a little bit i'm going
16:07
to pour it in we're going to whip this
16:08
up and add it to dustin's eggs well
16:11
you got to be patient here because if
16:12
this isn't hot enough it's not going to
16:13
melt the chocolate and if it gets you
16:15
don't want it to get all chunky because
16:16
then you have to strain it so yeah the
16:18
edges are bubbling up a little bit now
16:20
so i think i'm good enough to go
16:22
[Music]
16:27
and you add your meal here to your
16:30
chocolate chips
16:31
it's basically the same thing but i want
16:33
to work out of this bowl because what
16:34
i'm gonna have to do is temper those egg
16:36
yolks that dustin has yeah and i want to
16:38
pour out of this bowl
16:42
i'm ready we could skip the whole thing
16:44
and just have a big glass of chocolate
16:46
milk
16:48
okay we're going to temper these eggs
16:50
i'm going to add them really slowly so
16:51
we don't have scrambled eggs in our cup
16:53
so we add it to our egg yolks
16:55
all right while y'all are doing that
16:57
guys
16:58
i think i'm going to go ahead and add
17:00
our boiling water to our pan okay
17:04
they're paying me no mind they've
17:06
they put me on it you know what up your
17:08
recipe
17:10
i think we're good all right here we go
17:13
we're great okay this looks great this
17:15
doesn't have one lump in it so we're
17:16
gonna take this and i'm gonna measure it
17:18
into our little ramekins that mama's got
17:20
here okay
17:22
mom's got our water bath going for us
17:25
this is gonna be so good and
17:27
thick and rich
17:29
the sugar and the eggs young
17:33
now how long are we gonna bake this for
17:34
guys this is going in the oven at 300
17:36
degrees and we're gonna cook it for
17:38
probably 30 or 35 minutes most important
17:40
part of this though is after this comes
17:42
out of the oven we're going to set it on
17:44
the counter
17:45
let it cool off after it gets to room
17:46
temperature we're going to put it in the
17:47
fridge for about three hours because
17:49
this is going to set up more like a
17:50
pudding this isn't a this is a thick
17:52
this is a big nice thick
17:54
custard yeah those eggs are going to
17:56
cause it to get real thick and
18:01
the lack of a better word thick thick
18:04
thick perfect bird
18:07
okay into the oven
18:09
so you got to be patient but trust me
18:10
it's worth it 300 degrees 400 degrees
18:12
for 30 or 35 minutes set it on the
18:14
counter for about 40 minutes bring it to
18:16
room temperature into the fridge for
18:18
three hours when we come back we're
18:19

finding out where they came from while

these two guys were in the back hiding
19:55
in the kitchen slinging some great hash
19:58
out too one cup of heavy cream we're
20:00
gonna add like five tablespoons of just

it's a store-bought butterscotch like um
20:05
like an ice cream topping type all right
20:07
well turn that thing on high baby all
20:08
right once this starts to become whipped
20:10
cream then we can kind of slowly add
