Kind of. I’m not impressed by someone who uses bottled dressing and off the shelf rub. Even I, a good home cook but not a video maker, make my own rub using sugar (brown or white or coconut or…), paprika, Chile powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper and whatever my creative mind come up with. Marinade the same way.
Something I appreciate about Malcom's videos is that he doesn't push his own products. He uses them, but never says "Use my rub", he always says "I am using my rub, but use your favorite rub." And this is why I buy his products. He is out there to show us how to cook BBQ because he is passionate about BBQ. He is not levering it to sell his products.
Agreed, but I will tell you, “the bbq rub” is the only premixed seasoning blend that I have on hand at all times. It serves as a great base for chicken. Every other bottle of seasoning I’ve purchased to taste: meat church, uncle Chris’, etc hasn’t made it into my pantry as a staple. Generally, I like to make my own rubs rather than using premixed bottles, but like I said, “the bbq rub” is a great base. Try it at least once!
I was looking for this comment. I 100% agree. My local BBQ shop owner makes his own bbq sauce that is absolutely fantastic. He didn't know that I knew that he made his own bbq sauce. His BBQ sauce sits on the shelf like everyone else's. I asked him what bbq he could recommend to me. I want to say he didn't get to his BBQ sauce until the 3rd or 4th option. Not once saying it was his BBQ sauce or why I should buy it. I of course bought his as I planned on getting a few bottles anyway on top of another sauce I was looking for. It was never a test but I can 100% say with confidence that I would trust his opinion on what I need for my BBQ needs.
Okay, so we just cooked chicjen thighs on the grill for the very first time last weekend. Used to use chicken breast but it would get dried out. Glad we tried it. The family was skeptical lol
Tried this today for the family on Mother’s Day and as Malcolm says when he takes a bite of something good “Whaaaaaat!” It was delicious! Thanks for making me look like a master chef once again!
I just made this Italian dressing and bbq rub marinate but I'm curious if I can let it sit in the fridge for 24 hours. I don't want the strong vinegar to overpower the chicken.
I learned working in a restaurant, specifically when grilling thighs. You crowd the pieces together. So the smoke builds underneath. So in this case. Let the coals settle down. If that heat is too much and you’re feeling you need to keep moving or flipping.
I remember seeing this girl run into you at some event and you were cooking thighs. She said "what you doing Malc?" and quickly you described cooking boneless chicken thighs and I immediately tried it. Not sure how old that video was - and then a couple years later I saw you on your own channel. You are the BBQ king!
@@thescoggfather OMG I have to tell you - I found it, I found the first time I saw a Malcom video...And I also had a comment in there from 7 years ago ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dChyt1_eb20.html
This Italian dressing is completely new for me 🫣. Unfortunately this brand is not available in the Netherlands. I wil find out the ingredients and make it myself. Thanks for sharing
