Southern BBQ Two

Hi y'all, I'm Paula Deen. Now, barbecuing in the South is not just grilling. It's a cooking way of life

Before we get started, we're going to take a trip to America's beloved donut shop, Krispy Kreme

You know, Lucy ain't got nothing on me when it comes to working that conveyor belt

And after a belly full of goodness, it's time for cooking. And I'm going to start with my daddy's tangy grilling sauce for my chicken

And then believe it or not, it's fried biscuits, just full of flavor

Last but not least, it's my friend Bill Nicholson's Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding

Y'all pull up your lounge chair and loosen your belt buckle, because it's barbecue time

Hi. I actually found out a few days ago from my local weatherman

that today was supposed to be a beautiful, cool, sunny day. so I couldn't resist the idea of doing a barbecue outside

So I've got the grill cranked up. Michael's back there watching the fire

because I've got one quick stop that I've got to make. To go along with all of our healthy grilled foods today

I'm going to Krispy Kreme to get donuts to make a bread pudding

so y'all don't want to miss today's show. It's going to be so delicious

All right. You hiding back there, Linda

Actually, I'm not. How are you? Good to see you. Yes. I need two dozen donuts, please, glazed

Really? Huh? You know, is there any other kind? No way. Come on, girl

I've been sitting out in your parking lot waiting on hot donuts. I can come back there with you. Certainly

Come on. All right. Are you going to trust me to load it up

Certainly I am. No, I want you to... Look at you! Oh, my God

How many do you have in the box? 20. You're going to have me

We'll use these for the bread pudding. You can have those in the car. Okay

I've been on five and so they don't fit in the box

See how nice and close they fit now? Y'all are not making use of the box

We aren't, we aren't, but you did a great job. Okay, Paula, thanks again. You have a great day

You know what, Linda? I had so much fun. I knew I could fit 20 donuts in that box

You did it, girl. Thanks. Thank you. Bye-bye. I actually got a baker's dozen

One for the cook. Y'all, come on. It's time to cook. All right, the donuts are safely in the kitchen away from me

and hopefully away from Michael. Hopefully when it's time for me to make that bread pudding

they'll still be on the counter. All right, now what I'm starting with first is my daddy's barbecue sauce

Daddy just cooked the most wonderful chickens on the grill, and I've got my butter melting

And I'm going to add one cup of Worcestershire. This is a real tart sauce

And it's real dark and it's real, real thin. It's not like you think of a barbecue sauce as being red and thick

It's not like that at all. And now we're going to add the juice of two lemons

We're going to squeeze those out good. And I can't believe that that lemon didn't have the first seed in it

So I'm going to take that pulp and stick it over in there. and I'm gonna drop the lemon in it

to absorb all that lemon flavor. Oh, it's gonna be so good

A good trick to get all the juice out of your lemon is pop this into the microwave for about 10 seconds

and it will render you so much more juice. So that's it

That's all it is to our sauce. You could always add a little black pepper to it

and some salt. So good

Now I'm gonna let that simmer just for a second. And we're gonna get our chickens ready to go on the grill

Now actually, you would want to do this probably the night before

or if you were doing it in the evening at least early in the morning so that your chickens could soak up all the flavor and all the seasoning that you going to put on it Now we going to start with the oil and we just going to baste our chicken and

this will keep it moist, and it'll give our seasoning something to stick to

Now I've washed these chickens real, real good, and I'm just going to use salt, pepper

and garlic powder. All right. So that's all we have to do

and hopefully we're on the way to some chicken. It'll really remind me of the days when Daddy was out in the backyard

grilling his chicken for everybody. All right, I'm going to move this off now and move the birds on

And I'm going to put them skin side up, and you can see that that fire is nice and hot

Now, you can regulate your fire with your lid. we can actually shut that off

and it'll keep the flame from going down. So while our chicken's cooking, let's run on in the house

I got to get rid of this rag. It's the one I was using after touching that chicken

so y'all bear with me. I've got to just wash my hands a minute. And then I'm going to come over here

and I'm going to show you the nicest treat. I probably first had this, oh, I was probably 22 or 23 years old at Panama City Beach, Florida

We went to this little restaurant that had seafood baskets. And along with each basket, they served a fried biscuit in it

And they were so delicious. So that's what we're going to do today

We got our oil heating, and I'm going to be bringing it to about 350 degrees

and to do this we're going to use a canned biscuit. We're going to do a little twist though with our biscuits

When we pull them out I'm going to show you a little trick. It's going to make them

That always scares me. It's going to make them ever so good

All right, we're just going to pull our biscuits apart. All right

Okay, our oil should be hot enough So we're going to stick them in there and see

Oh, yeah. My mama used to make Bubba and Me donuts with canned biscuits

Oh, and they would just be so good to eat them hot. All right, now you can see that this is not going to take long

I'm just going to kind of move those around. And I'm cooking these up today for everybody to snack on while we're waiting for the chicken to get done

All right, those look good. so I'm gonna go ahead and cut off our fire

I'm actually gonna change now and so I can get two at the time

and get them out of that grease. I'm fixing to fill him up with a honey butter mixture

And I'm using, you can see a container like you would for a picnic

that holds your mustard and ketchup mayonnaise. And I'm just gonna insert him into that biscuit

and fill him up. Is that a snack or what? Mmm, mmm, mmm

Y'all don't go too far because next I'm going to be showing you how to make a Krispy Kreme bread pudding

So y'all don't go too far. Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm

Well, how'd y'all like those biscuits? They're something else, aren't they? Oh, now it's time to check our chicken

Oh, and it looks so good. and I'm just going to flip it over to the other side and oh you can see how nicely that's browned

just a few more minutes with that and then we'll start swabbing it with my daddy's wonderful barbecue

sauce okay that looks like it can tend to itself so now it's back into the kitchen to make that

yummy bread pudding I'm so ready to get in here and finish this bread pudding for you

you're just not going to believe it. Now, I've started chopping my donuts up

and that looks like a pile, doesn't it? It's actually going to wind up about two dozen

So I'm going to finish these up. I've got about six more left

And this is so good and easy to do. This is so funny

You know, I really believe in, like, good karma. And one day I was thinking, gosh

I would love to be able to do something with Krispy Kreme donuts on the show

but I said you can improve a Krispy Kreme donut All it needs is a quart of milk in your lips and you home with it Well about two days later after these thoughts went through my head

I got a letter from a TV friend of mine that watches my show

His name is Bill Nicholson, and he said, I just wanted to share with you a recipe that I make for my friends

And he said, it's my Krispy Kreme bread pudding. I could not believe it

So I called him and found out exactly how to make it and talked to him about it

So I'm going to share this with y'all today. We've got all of our donuts in our pan

Now we're going to add two beaten eggs and sweetened condensed milk

Like they might not have enough sugar in them. But now you do notice that this is the only sweetener Bill's added

There's no sugar in this recipe. That's pretty good, isn't it? of bread pudding with no sugar added

All right, so we're just going to get that real good. And then we're going to get an ordinary can of fruit cocktail

along with the liquid. We're just going to pour that over it

And we're going to add a pinch of salt and a teaspoon or two of cinnamon and then raisins

And, you know, raisins are always optional when you're making bread pudding

Personally, I love them, though. So I'm just gonna take that and mix that all together

Now Bill told me that he takes his bread pudding and actually takes his hands and squishes it

But I really like the idea of the chunks of donuts. All right, now we're gonna transfer this to our baking dish

This is not sinful. Look at that sticky condensed milk and the juice from our fruit cocktail

All right, I think that's about all I can stuff in there. So I'm going to throw this into the oven

and we're going to let it cook until the center is no longer jiggly

probably about 45 minutes. Look how pretty that looks. You can see the grapes from the fruit cocktail

and your peaches and the raisins, and I see a little cherry peeking out

Mmm. Now I have one ready and I couldn't make you wait

All right, we're going to let that sit there for a few minutes because believe it or not

we're not through with this bad boy yet. We're going to top it now with a rum sauce and I've got a stick of butter melted here

and I'm gonna add a box of powdered sugar. And this doesn't have to cook

We're just gonna work it in, and then we're gonna thin this with a little rum

Just enough to make a glaze that can be drizzled on top

All right, now we wanna pour this onto our bread pudding while our pudding is still warm

and it will finish melting that powdered sugar. So I'm just gonna drizzle it on top

My goodness, it kinda looks like a strudel or something, doesn't it

You know, I can't hardly wait to taste it. Look, the smell between the glaze of the donut

and the cinnamon is just, it'll knock you into next week. Okay, here we go

Bill, you bad boy? I think you need a spanking, cause you've been a bad, bad boy

I gotta take a quick break to catch my breath after this one

but when we come back, I'm gonna show you how to grill a nice asparagus

Would y'all believe I've even whipped up some ice cream

And I'm going to sit it right there. I've got it nice and packed in ice and salt

And now it's time to finish up Daddy's chicken. Now the secret to my Daddy's chicken

was he didn't sauce it until the last 10 or 15 minutes because there's so much butter in his sauce that it'll cause your fire to flame all up

and possibly burn your chicken. So we're just going to swab him real, real good

And he smells out of this world. My daddy made a lot of people happy with his barbecue chicken

All right, now we're going to wrap this meal up in just a couple of minutes

We're going to put the lid back on. And I want to show you one of my favorite ways to eat asparagus Now I have put the asparagus spears on two skewers making almost the shape of a raft Now we going to put a little olive oil a little

fresh garlic, and you can actually mix this up earlier in the day, and a little lemon zest

about a teaspoon of lemon zest. And I'm going to put a little salt, and a little fresh pepper

this is so good. Now I'm going to take my rafts and you can see how I've done them. I've put an

asparagus spear every other way. Now we're going to take our asparagus and just brush it with our

olive oil and garlic and this is going to be a nice light side to that bread pudding we made

Okay I've got those all done and I'm going to come over here and swab the chicken

one more time. These look and smell too delicious. Now I'm going to lay our asparagus

on our grill, and this is not going to take very long at all. All right. Now I want to offer all

my guests a lighter option to that rich bread pudding. So all I'm going to do is take a couple

of peaches and throw them on the grill. Just going to pop out the seeds. I'm going to dip

them in butter and in sugar and straight onto the grill. All right, now I'm going to close that grill

for a minute and get rid of that flame and it won't take but a couple of minutes and they'll be ready

Everything should be ready now. Let's take a look and the chicken's definitely done. Looks so delicious

You can see that leg is trying to come apart on us, and the asparagus looks scrumptious

This looks so, so good. Let's check our, oh, and our peaches look yummy

Look how delicious they look with their grill marks. This meal looks so good

You've got your green, you've got your orange, and you've got your brown from the chicken

I've got to get in here and get me a leg. Oh, it's hot and juicy

A great meal for a nice, beautiful, sunny day. Oh, my goodness

It's almost as good as I remember my daddy's being. And the asparagus is just perfect with the garlic and the olive oil

And even though I planned this for dessert, I just had to go ahead and put one on my plate

Mmm. The sweet and the savory is just awesome together. I can't tell you what that little bit of butter and sugar did to that peach

It's all just yummy. I've got to go for a second, but when I come back

I'm going to share some grilling tips with you. So y'all stay with me

I just love grilling shows. The opportunity to be outside and have all the flavors that come off that fabulous charcoals just too much. I want to share with you though before we leave some things to avoid on your grill. You'll want to stay away from vegetables like carrots and parsnips and potatoes because they'll burn on the outside and still be raw on the inside. Some great vegetables though to grill is zucchini

yellow squash, eggplant, peppers, onions, even Napa cabbage. And the fruits to grill

would be pears, apples, peaches, and pineapple. All these are just luscious

dipped in your butter and dipped in sugar and grilled. And you can, after you've

taken your entree off the grill, you can pop those on at the last minute. And for

your grilled asparagus during the winter, when you can't cook outside, a nice

ridged grilling pan will work perfect in the oven and a nice alternative to a

heavy dessert is a piece of grilled fruit with a nice scoop of ice cream or

yogurt on it. I had a great time with y'all today being outside under these

beautiful blue skies and grilling this wonderful chicken that my daddy used to

make when I was a little girl and the deep-fried biscuits that I hadn't had in

years and the grilled asparagus and the grilled fruit and more than anything build sinful sinful

crispy cream donut bread pudding you've got to try it it's over the top i hope that you make it

like it as much as i did and until next time america i send you love and best dishes from my

grill to yours
