A Whole Thanksgiving Dinner for 35 Dollars | But Cheaper 

Hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful :)😄

This is so good to read ❤

😂😂

I don't know about you, but if I don't get TWO dinner rolls, I am teh disappoint.

Theres always one of these out of 10: a gluten intolerance, a Paleo, or a Keto. It'll be ok.

@@michellemcgough7476 Who would let a keto or celiac in your house to eat with your family? Wtf

@@davyddocarmocabral2989 i genuinely cannot tell if this is sarcasm or not

You mean like making McDonald’s burger but better?

Petition ,for Joshua to start a series But fancier. Where he makes things more expensive.

Isn't that basically his "But Better" series?

that’s just but better

*expensive

(also to be fair, not everyone has a big enough freezer to put a whole turkey in :P Especially in larger cities where square footage is expensive as all fucks haha)

@@Thalanna Well that is one of many reasons why living in a big city is fucking trap.

Saw hams today for under 5 bucks.

@@winduncan9818 what about turkey

It takes a week to slow thaw a turkey in the fridge, so you can buy it early without having to take up freezer space.

It's the meats. Prime rib (6-8 bones), leg of lamb, steaks, and a duck...just to name a few. Not to mention alcohol, desserts, and sides. It can be done.

I give you like just to see him spend 1k

@@omarmhosen3434 now that you bring it up yeah. Seems hilarious

@@brenixon1577 honestly I could see Josh buying a wagyu rib roast for Thanksgiving

I wonder if you’ve ever cooked an entire thanksgiving meal. If you have, you know you can easily spend a lot of money. I don’t like cheap food. I want high quality ingredients for a great tasting meal. Otherwise I’d just order everything from somewhere like Boston market. That’s not the point of a family cooked meal. You can splurge for this family meal. And I don’t feel bad about it.🤷🏽‍♀️

Also no mac and cheese. smdh

I almost shut the video off in anger.

Ya know they say people from the south are dumb, but just reading that made me drool a little.

That’s stuffing.. definitely not dressing.

I meannn. In the budget there is a bit less than $20 left so you could throw in those delicacies too ^-^

Same 😂

same lmao

Oh so true😂😂

Same

You can celebrate anyway! Never a bad time to celebrate a harvest and being grateful

but boiling berries is beyond you?

I've been a professional cook (I'm no chef) on and off again for over 30 years, and every year I go on a merry trek to try and find the elusive canned cranberry sauce that will come out of the can Shaped like the can. to me that is how cranberry sauce is supposed to look... I GUESS I could use Joshies version and just add gelatin to it and let it set up in the can

@@stinkmonger Beyond me? Damn I just like the stuff haha. It tastes nostalgic.

​@@TheStraycat74 hahaha oh my gosh yes please do

Same. Canned cranberry goo is 100% my preference.

its also in the description of the video :)

That’s where I got it. I took out everything that wasn’t groceries and combined like items (like all instances of butter) so I had a list to work from. And I’ve now bought everything I need. I did it for myself because it works best for me. Nobody else has to use it.

@@jvallas thanks

You forgot the Bread Rolls

@@BigHenFor Oh, you’re right! Probably cuz I’m planning to make challah.

*does

He will raise it from egg to slaughter.

Gonna make his oxygen with plants he grows for the turkey

10 years later creates his own turkey atoms

Thanksgiving has some rrreallly good comfort food.. But i dont think anything compares to southeast asian food. :)

also me as a brazilian

Lol same

Same bro

Yep, this is America. We eat this every year on the last Thursday of November. I have made stuffing a couple times this month, I like it.

I want to say 'kink'. But I don't think that's why.

Wazar report

@@lookcatchu Because he calls himself papa in these videos

Youre a stand

Well, he did mention he typically feeds anywhere from 10 to 20 people. 🤷‍♂️

Maybe even 1000s

you arent cheap, hes just rich. dont let him shame you. the "flexing" is getting pretty annoying at this point

@Buferin El mejor WOAH BRO YOU'RE SO CONFIDENT IN YOURSELF AND SHIT MAN THAT'S SO COOL HAHA NICE

@Buferin El mejor ok, lets dive into it. he said "well over 500$, potentially even over a 1000$" and "10,15, maybe even 20 people". So if we take the smallest cost, and the largest crowd, that is still 25$ for a single plate and dessert. I don't know about you, but those are restaurant prices for me, and that is at the lowest possible cost for the most people he can host. Since we are all watching a video where he makes 10-15 servings for 35$, i think even Josh would agree that he spends too much on it.

Lmaooo

Yeah Ewan, what were you thinking lol 😂 OBVIOUSLY it would take longer than 12 minutes. Good comment btw 👍

@@slashparties wat ?

@@slashparties r/woosh

@@slashparties r/wooosh

I'd like that too

you mean bloopers?

No @@yuranamo I want more like what to do when sht goes sideways type of video

@@AspienPadda like when you forget to turn off the gas stove? Jk jk I know what you mean lol

Yea that too @@connornobbs3487 I'm sure Josh has recording of where he massively messes up and he could walk us through what happened and what he did or what we should do. I'd like that

You spend more taking one shower than drinking tap for an entire week. What a stupid comment.

@@norwegiannignog2470 r/woosh.

@@HighImBlade not really a woosh moment

@Gretchen Weiners " I have the facts but can't remember the source " *seems legit*

@@OwOdeputy Except it was. The initial comment had nothing to do with how much water he consumed, but rather the total amount of water he used over the course of a month, equaling his bill (Because Josh said water is free). Don't know how people are so mind-numbingly dumb. It's crazy how someone can make a very obvious joke into something serious. I guess no matter how obvious it is, humor is still subjective.

I mean he does say that its for him and his family since they try to buy the nice stuff. But like I would argue most people probably send around 1 to 200

He said that's for like 20 ppl

He's right

@@Wagga.b Still though... I've fed 15 - 20 people for like $40 in the past, and it could have been cheaper. I like Josh but he can be pretty bougie and disconnected from how average working people live

@@matil7039 gotta keep in mind that where he lives most things are more expensive compared to most people. And he wants his thanksgiving dinner to be a fancy meal that isnt supposed to be eaten everyday. $40 for 20 meals is a struggle meal, no hate on it but its not a fancy thanksgiving feast ya feel me?

Can I get an Amen?

@@angelaammann2142 AMEN

*pappa

@@tejaskulkarni4579 exactly

hallelujah

I have to spend $800 to get my two free turkeys 🦃... does that count? Lol.

@@wannaberedneckprepper7030 Why would anyone do that? Just buy two turkeys. Thanksgiving dinner should never cost that much. That is a mortgage payment.

If someone spends that much money on a meal for one day, they are not very smart.

@@Michelle-pn9xt Ya misunderstand. If it's anything like my grocery store, you have to spend a certain amount of money over the two months before thanksgiving to get a free turkey. Like regular grocery shopping.

Like he said a big chunk of butter :)

THEORISTS UNITE!

I was about to write something like that XD

Food theory needs to post more

Ayyyyyyy a fellow theorist

I seriously thought I was the only one

Gets uncle Roger flashbacks!

I’m white and I put it on everything so I was proud of him too. Wish more people would not be afraid of it.

Consuming msg regularly has proven to cause learning disorders so it’s not just another normal spice

@@aresosorio5915 where is the proof? don't give a BS when there is none. msg just salt with lower sodium even the doctor said msg is safe and healthier than regular salt because has low sodium content

@@aresosorio5915 you're more likely to get ligma than be affected by msg

I actually enjoyed the cabinet. There was a dead rat inside that I befriended. His name is Daryl.

Trapped in the cupboard?

@@jojodawgs8837 Ayeee u know daryl too?

WHO LET YOU OUT

Ok, thanks for letting me know, I’ll make sure to padlock my cabinets

1 million dollar meal. better Include a ticket to heaven.

Josh ain’t buzzfeed lmao

@Diven Naidu did I stutter? (jk typo)

It'll cost him tons of ad revenues but hey that a pretty nice idea.

Why the fuck did u copy my comment bitchass

Sure he must be proud of this nephew!

*I was just thinking that*

@What's MY Name If u get cancer msg can fix that too

@What's MY Name there’s no scientific evidence that MSG leads to cancer. Where that myth came from idk.

Hes not funny

They’re the elite scissors

Or that he left the stems on the green beans.

Those are actually kitchen shears. I got a pair and let me tell ya they are amazing

😂😂😂

Those are boning shears..... kid scissors can't even cut construction paper. Let alone the entire spine of a turkey.

Cause papa is a F A N C Y B O Y (and also like, a professional chef who makes everything from scratch and stuff.)

Raising a turkey from an egg is expensive lol

Well, he makes good money sohe buys an artisanal bird ($100) and the best of the best everything, with tons of sides and stuff, drinks... Its doable I guess.

Food for 20 people isn’t cheap haha

My jaw dropped when he said that. I mean, I don't even spend $500 on Christmas...presents and food and all!

First

Chi *c* ken

@@birb0126 he has an accent so u say it like chi ken

Please stop using the comment section. Nobody cares what you think, you stupid child.

500 is possible, maybe. 1000 is impossible.

Copied bitch

@@bobateacuber7646 ?? You never went to a fancy restaurant

@@bobateacuber7646 lol what? It absolutely is

ME TOO holy shit. My grandpa has fed 20+ people for years using techniques like his, and honestly I love her thanksgiving food! It's really good! But I don't think she spends more than $60-$90. I can't help but wonder what a $1000 thanksgiving tastes like! I hope I get to try one day. No offense grandma ♥ I'm craving her cooking now.

You can tho it’s about family and friends now not American history.

Same

@@laughoutloud7844 we know but then it's called food not thanksgiving

@@laughoutloud7844 actually if you go back to the roots of it it's paying homage to the gods for Bountiful Harvest. And this observance is actually done in many areas around the earth under different names www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=www.congregationsofgod.org/why_we_should_not_celebrate_thanksgiving&ved=2ahUKEwim8qTm15btAhUPr1kKHZCCA0AQFjALegQIExAB&usg=AOvVaw2yD9w9xREvIc_uLOAyQsv6

Same the history behind the holiday is just disgusting and heart breaking

Omg I'm not the only one

Trim OR snap! Lol my momma must be twitching from heaven.

The ends wont kill you. Some ppl actually like them

@@blueblaze9862 lol I know, its a tradition thing with me. Snapping green beans with momma/grandma was a time honored tradition in our family.

I came here for this comment. I wanna tackle him and fix those green beans!

Once we get him to 10 Mil

Idk who's actually gon get any use of that

@@brokenhert123 San Francisco has entered the chat. :D, everything costs at least 100% more in this city. For example: Josh estimated 1$ for 3/4 cup of butter. In my city, that would be at least 3$

Nah that could be a bit wasteful

@@balusmbox still wouldbt someone want to make their meal as cheap as possible? The “but less” concept still applies

He needs to react watching this

Also will save you like $5 of butter.

Thinking the same thing! Plus, weirdly enough, my family adds a cut up hard boiled egg to the gravy

I was like, where's the giblets??

corn starch is another great option if you’re gluten free/run out of flour :)

My mother always made gravy from the drippings I thought that's how you make it 🤷‍♀️

@Mr. Clean that’s assuming there’s a family in the picture

@@laylas4300 bruh

SAMEEEEE. I always snap the ends off

fellas do you have your beans circumcised or uncircumcised

Me too, I remember my grandma teaching me to do this in grade school!

untrimmed is so much better imo the sauce/dressing doesnt fall off the sides.

@@oRm0nD uncercumcised, when i eat it i just bite before the stem and toss it to the side

I’ve always made my own cranberry sauce. The stuff in cans is revolting. Canadian here too. Groceries more expensive here, but still, his tips are good. (Maggi Seasoning contains msg if you can’t find the kind he uses.)

If it's not in the bird it's called dressing. So you'll be safe.

Fuiyoh!

YES! That was bothering me too! Eggs don't cost 0.36 cents, they cost 36 cents, or $0.36

Around here, if u spend $30 in a grocery store, you get 412 off a turkey. The eligible turkeys are rather small, so u get a 13-14 lb bird for about $1.50. I helped my friend deliver food boxes to some of her church members, and wound up getting a few cans of pumpkin, a can of mushroom soup, I think 6 cans of evaporated milk, plenty cranberry dressing and even a box of bread cubes for stuffing! Can hardly believe this is stuff others didn't want!

It’s very good 10/10 would recommend. I’m from the US and it’s a fun time lemme tell you

We still cook turkey at Christmas tho, you can do it then

@A. Meowzki there’s small variations (like maybe Texas uses cornbread to make stuffing, etc) but overall it’s pretty uniform throughout the entire US.

I mean in Trinidad, thanksgivings are a different thing. Like a Christian prayer service kinda thing

In Trinidad NM? Why?? I live in NM and we celebrate Thanksgiving lol

what does that mean? i didnt get it

i screameddddddd the shade 😭

@@fadedIove the PERFECT amount of shade & subtlety I love it lmao

@@nadinewael3481 search pilgrims real story

@@nadinewael3481 it’s referring to the truth behind thanksgiving

Yup i swear to god every time I see babish a actual ad with him appears and then the sponsor from the add is on that video

LEGIT. 🤣🤣🤣

My dad loves that stuff. He always felt thanksgiving was incomplete with out it lol

Disgosting

The wiggle is absolutely necessary

DUDEEEE I WAS READING THIS COMMENT AS HE WAS SAYING IT LMAOOO

wokeman

That was beautifully savage. Even my phone's calandar now erased "Thanksgiving" and has the date listed as "Native American Heritage Day".

@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley Mines shows Thanksgiving on Thursday & Native American Heritage Day on Friday.

This is hysterical.

Hilarious.

Yeah probably depends on the gravy but I think that's a pretty common way to make it

It’s actually considered velouté. Bechamel is a roux and cream/dairy and velouté is a roux with a white stock (poultry,veggie, or fish)

@@rhe1672 thank you for your insight 👌🏼✨

When I do the gravy what I usually do is make it out of the roasting pan juices, bring that to a high boil, stirring constantly and pepper no salt because the liquid already has the salt the a slurry out of water and corn starch, whisk that constantly until it is thickened. adding more corn starch along the way, then after about 20 mins or so the gravy is finished. Learned it from my uncle RIP.

@@NawaazBabamia you’re welcome :)

I use ground cinnamon or gingerbread seasoning in mine.

Or assured success.

Josh has a live in girlfriend/fiancee... I think that has more to do with how calm he is than the quarantine. just sayin

It's ok. It's not against the law to be uneducated.

@@muffinman3052 true! If your talking about yourself :)

Start farming? LOL

@@AineMacDermot haha 😂😂

I live in the US and I'm not even sure where he's getting a turkey for $7. I bought one of those little 3 pound frozen turkey cutlets (not sure what it's called?) a couple weeks ago and it still cost me $20.

Good luck cooking
