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. 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 help 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 gonna 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 gonna add the juice of two lemons

We're gonna squeeze those out good, and I can't believe that that lemon

didn't have the first seed in it. So I'm gonna 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. 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're 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. Alright

So that's all we have to do. And hopefully we're on the way to some chicken that'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. 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 gonna come over here and I'm gonna

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 gonna use a canned biscuit

We're gonna do a little twist, though, with our biscuits. When we pull them out, I'm gonna show you a little trick

It's gonna make them, that always scares me. It's gonna make them ever so good

All right, we're just gonna 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 going to go ahead and cut off our fire

I'm actually going to change now so I can get two at a 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? Mm-mm-mm

Y'all don't go too far because next I'm gonna be showing you how to make

a Krispy Kreme bread pudding. So y'all don't go too far. Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

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. Now I'm just going to flip it over to the other side

and ooh, 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 doughnuts on the show

but I said you can improve a Krispy Kreme doughnut all it needs is a quarter milk and 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 gonna share this with y'all today

We've got all of our donuts in our pan. Now we're gonna 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? A 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 going to 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. Alright, now we're going to transfer this to our baking dish

Is this 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 gonna let that sit there for a few minutes because believe it or not

we're not through with this bad boy yet. We're gonna 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

Mmm. Bill, you bad boy? I think you need a spanking, because 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 going to 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

I gonna put the lid back on and I wanna 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 gonna 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 gonna put a little salt and a little fresh pepper. And

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 on to the grill

Alright, now I'm gonna 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 charcoal is 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, Bill's sinful, sinful crispy cream donut bread pudding

You've got to try it. It's over the top. I hope that you make it and like it as much as I did

And until next time, America, I send you love and best dishes from my grill to yours
