Cubans Try American BBQ for FIRST TIME! - Texas BBQ 

I see you guys live in my home state of Arizona.. you have to take him to Dick's hideaway at 16th st and bethany home he will loose his mind in a great way lol

Hi, do you have an email I can contact you. Soy Cubana y me encantaria hablar con ustedes.

Thank you for the explanation. I pray that some day Cuba will have freedom and democracy.

You guys will love New Orleans

@@RealMrsAP si. Mimaincuba@gmail.com. It’s on the about tab in our page

I thought the same thing 🤣🤣

Best reaction ever. That's exactly how good it is.

he even yelled at her for trying to use a fork lol

That's what's awesome about food, no matter your background or ethnicity, it always brings people together.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

The few are trying to take the good and virtue out our country. The media and the left

I just enjoy seeing people enjoy the culture of food I was raised around. Always brings a smile to my face being able to see them loving the food

Hey, Greenman, if that wasn't shocking enough then this will make your stomach turn because the religious zealots, PC police, & woke crazies are now declaring war on beef & meat in general. What is your thought about these scoundrels trying to outlaw meat, in general?

All the more reason to not trust your govt to control your food supply.

If democrats keep getting allowed to steal elections then say bye to beef

Lol Peach Cobbler will work too fir desert. Not all of us like pecan pie.

@@claranielsen3382 some of us don't like either LOL. Flora-Bama here it's a banana pudding thing out here which I don't like either

Texas usually has peach cobbler followed by pecan pie and banana pudding .

@@delphidark Amen to that ! Where I live we have pecan orchards everywhere but I will take peach cobbler and banana pudding over that any day.

@@delphidark I'm a misplaced Southerner I don't like any of it

Absolutely!

I agree! They should try Soul Food potato salad, peach cobbler, banana pudding, macaroni & cheese.

@@neenee0708 Or even just homemade. I have never had any of those sides in a restaurant that beats homemade varieties. The meat, however, that 's WAY harder to get right.

I have read that there is a bitter chemical in green beans that some people can taste and others can't. They are always bitter to me. People who like them can't taste the bitterness.

Either bacon or ham I agree.

Not all greeen beans are equal for sure. Can green beans are better than many restaurants

The green beans were way underdone! They need a long simmer with a meaty ham bone, onion, garlic, a little season salt and a dash of red pepper flakes... That cream corn? Soupy... Ideally it should be cut fresh from the cob and fried in a cast iron skillet with a little bacon grease and evaporated milk until it's a corn "porridge." It's a restaurant so such is to be expected to a certain degree... Or not... Great-Granny's cooking was the best!

Onion, bacon, & cooked long enough for a bit of delicious pot liquor. If the beans are that bright of a green, they aren't done to perfection yet in my household.

Thank you so much!! Immigrants show us a side of humanity, many of us haven't thought about. And really, this story isn't just about immigrants but really being comfortable to try new things and experience all shades of life. Its been a blessing to show this all to you. Thank you for following along. We might bring extra spice packets everywhere we go now. LOL

@@YoelAndMari I think it is about the fun of watching someone's mind being blown by an instant overload of endorphins. I have had a hobby for a while of doing to people what you do to Yoel. Immigrants are fun that way, but I do with Americans, too. That "Costco" and "BBQ" WTF feeling even happens to Americans when they see Yosemite for the first time. I have done it with dozens of people. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IVE6naG4pqw.html Have you ever seen a tree so big that they put a road through it? They have them in California.

If you didn't I might believe there is something wrong with you. Some of the things most actually we just take for granted and dont think twice. Like the grocery store or Walmart. We don't think twice walking in huge stores full of stuff. And yet people in these countries cant even imagine it! So sad when he says the little girl never had a birthday cake. I wish we could directly help more but I feel most charities are not good and waste most of the money on themselves and bureaucratic bs! Soo sad 😥

He has a child like innocence

That is because he is full of shit. If he wa really as poor as he tries to pretend he is, he would not have a RU-vid channel...

Well, he recently got his first paycheck from UPS, so maybe he might be able to afford some all beef bologna now. 😉

I'm just a home cook, but seeing people enjoy eating my food is better than eating it myself.

I completely agree, I'm not a professional chef, but I love to cook. Watching people enjoy new food experiences, especially those I have experienced (Terry Black's really is amazing, that was their Dallas restaurant), makes me happy!

Meat over a wood fire is pretty universal. Cooking a meat for 12 hrs over smoke only, is Murican. And also pretty objectively better with the right cut of meat. Brisket over a normal grill fire is absolutely trash. And I have met people that char the outside to make the "bark." Avoid these people.

Facts, nothing like our good ol Texas bbq.

Right. I was going to say. It's not American. It's Texas BBQ. There are so many styles.

@@t0dd000 "There are many barbecues, but this one is mine"

I love it all but, I gotta say, Carolina BBQ I'd where it's at for me.

I prefer Kansas City BBQ. It tends to be sweeter than others. I had KC BBQ at a joint with a sauce so delicious I told the chef could drink it as a side beverage!

thanks for support us

@@YoelAndMari you bet, so when are you going to make the video we all want to see, you taking YOEL to the firing range?

@@joltjolt5060 I happen to know quite a few rightwing vegans. Your diet preference has zero to do with your social and political outlook. You are wayyyyyy off and insulting.

yea but we have a lot of shit food too

@@flipzyvfx9326 Yes but you need indifference

It’s the truth ✌🏻

RIGHT!?

He dropped that knife & fork and went right at it with his fingers. Proud moment for sure!

When he said “WTF is this”.. he also temporarily lost his accent 😂

Estan en DALLAS TX ahorita??? Necesitan visitar pequeño restaurant TODO PARA LLEVAR (covid) DOÑA ELVA RESTAURANT ILLINOIS avenue and BONNIE VIEW pidan ENCHILADAS ROJAS DE POLLO te lo juro LO MEJOR QUE VAN A PROBAR oh pregunten cual es el plato del dia

@@puromichoacan8339 no amigo ya fuimos! Para el próximo que seguro q Texas no acabo con nosotros!

▲ no hay problema

Make him talk in English more the more he talks the more he'll sound like a sexy Cuban Antonio Banderas. And peach cobbler is best served in Georgia where all the peaches come from. There is at least nine more states that have unbelievably good barbecue. Those are usually the Southern States.

@@jorynickila7760 hahaha if he can be as rich as a sexy Antonio banderas then i hope too! 😂😂

Its like elevating into another dimension. jajaj

Yes, I would love free food too. But I gotta work for me and my family's food. No free food for hard-working Americans..

@@randysalas3453 who pissed in your cereal this morning?

@@randysalas3453 Be glad that you have a job that pays you dollars Randy

@@Lurch685 My Dad and a lot of our family came from Cuba when Castro start taking over and I have a lot of my Family still there now. I think they are taking advantage of people!. They don`t work. people giving them Free stuff and Believing they never ate a steak or a pie!! lol, My dad worked 2 jobs 60 hrs a week to support our family, and they get "Free stuff" ( Tickets to games and other things that a lot of Americans can`t afford) In my opinion, they are scamming people. I might be wrong but never heard them say "Send money to Cuba to help Cubans" Btw, do you work hard for your stuff or do you ask people on the Internet to pay for you??? God bless America!!

Especially beef barbecue, Terry Black's makes some killer beef ribs.

Hes becoming a true American LOL!

@@YoelAndMari He will be closer when he can tell you how good it is compared to the fifteen different other varieties of BBQ in the US.

@@YoelAndMari y'all should have skipped the potato salad & tried a slice of brisket!! (potato salad & cole slaw are "hit or miss" at most places... but when you find a good one you will remember it.) Next time ask an employee about the sides & which ones are best there.😉

I fell out of my chair laughing out loud! Loved Yoel's reaction! Happt Valentine's Day❤🥂

That was the most American response he could have had. Welcome to America my friend.

Cubans come here "LEGALLY" because we have chosen to make it legal for cubans to come here. In what way does this choice reflect positively or negatively on which nationalities "are awesome people"?

Funny!

Exactly! I don't care what else you put in potato salad, if there's no mustard, it never tastes quite right.

I hate mustard in potato salad.

Served this way in alot of good bbq joints to help cut through the fat and flavor of the meat. While grease is still dripping from chin shovel some bland tater salad in the chute and it will be more flavorful then mustard could make it.

By itself, Def better with mustard though

Potato Salad recipes varies from state to state.

Kansas City brisket!

Brisket is what they make corned beef from.

The correct answer to any BBQ … Yes. It’s all so Gud!

“A while” being half a day.

I agree. Brisket is the star of Texas BBQ that’s for sure

We are all so proud of the daily work he is putting in to learning English thank you so much Terry! . You know, being in a new country people get very self conscious and shy with practicing in public. But he doesn't care and its wonderful.

@@YoelAndMari Being a Texan & native English speaker, I have always heard that English is one of the harder languages to learn. Especially because we have SO many words that sound exactly the same but mean different things: To, too, & two - Red, Read & Read - Write, right & wright - there, their & they're... ETC.... Yoel is doing GREAT!! I'm amazed he is progressing so quickly. 👏😊

@@YoelAndMari I think most Americans really appreciate when newcomers try to learn English, and even if it’s not perfect, we generally get the idea of what’s trying to be said. Bravo on progressing so fast! I think you are doing great Yoel. I’ve been trying to teach myself Brazilian Portuguese for years, and I’m nowhere near as good at it as he is in English. Congratulations!

Here in Cali - can't find those ribs anywhere! I am always so jealous watching pit boss videos of these guys in Texas cooking these. Watching this made my mouth watering.

In the South, potato salad has more mustard than mayonnaise. Much better than what was served. It’s also very difficult to find good cobbler at a restaurant. Homemade from an older Southern lady is the best.

Ditto this comment. Potato salad is made differently almost everywhere in this country. Don't be afraid to try somewhere else. And for peach cobbler....hands down... don't try to argue. Georgia.

Peach Cobbler also varies from person to person

also missing that vanilla ice cream that you put on top of the cobbler.....

While that is true about both, I have never had a peach cobbler that was bad so if they did not like this one it may be this dessert just isn't for them or maybe this restaurant just makes a really bad cobbler.

I know what you mean. As a native Texan when I moved to Florida and went to Miami and had authentic Cuban food I was blown away. Couldn't find good BBQ to save my life but the Cuban food made up for it.

they're banned from eating beef so na, you don't even know

Yes! My daughter smokes the best ribs ever! And any other type of meat you want.

Yep, after smoking my turkey a few years back I can't imagine ever eating it any other way. It was so simple too!

Hey also live in NC. Lots of great barbecue places here. All depends on where you look and where you go. What would you recommend?

@@ironman98 I enjoy both Eastern and Lexington style bbq, but my preference is Lexington.

This is not wholly actuate, while Texas puts emphasis on brisket in particular, a common second is pork ribs for most every bbq place in Texas. Hell I’d even place both those before beef ribs in the frequency of being ordered by the regular patron.

BBQ in Texas has little to nothing to do with the meat preference it is the event. More times than not at our family gatherings we have bbq chicken and yes brisket.

BBQ means "smoked". Texas does it best. It has nothing to do with the type of meat.

Yes!! We got some at home for 4th of July he liked. But this one at this place was rather bland!

@@YoelAndMari bummer. Lol

@@YoelAndMari Actually Publix here in Georgia sells a red potato salad in their deli upright fridge that's not too bad. But homemade is usually better of course with a lil mustard, eggs, onions & pickles. Bet Yoel would like that!! Some even put fresh bacon bits in it .. which I like as well.

@@Daniel_Rood Eew .. not sweet pickles .. yuck. Never heard of anyone putting sweet pickles in potato salad. Well not in the south anyway. That's as big a sin as putting sugar in cornbread!!!😉

@@Daniel_Rood Me too either😁

In before someone from fifteen different other places comes to tell you that you don't know what you are talking about. Those are fighting words.

I’d say TX is up there too for best known BQQ style. My preference is Carolina or Alabama style. Detroit has a burgeoning BBQ scene with some fantastic pits.

Yeah Texas definitely isn't the best place for BBQ

Burnt ends at Plowboys in KCMO. Yum!

@@mc4906 them is fighting words !!!

😂😂

Biggest I've seen. Making me hungry

Honestly, wish we could all have a BBQ together. It was WAY too much for us!

Well, they say, everything is bigger in Texas.

We try to respond as much as we can. If you took the time to watch our video and engage with us, that means so much. We try our best (to all the positive comments at least). Thank you so much and we will be doing the zoo maybe in a couple months!

That sounds good :D

@@RedRoseSeptember22 It's super good. My grandmother would make them with canned green beans, that's where I got the recipe. I tried it with fresh green beans and it's amazing.

Many of our BBQ houses have green beans in Texas. Yummy

Yea those green beans were not made right. We make healthy vegetables unhealthy in my house hold in Texas lol. We also like the mustard based potato salad. Don’t forget the pork and beans. My favorite side dish

@@pederdaughter7170 I make mustard potato salad too, wouldn't have it otherwise. I'll generally use jalapeno mustard, or something else spicy. Nance's Hot Mustard works really well. Up here in NY state, we make Grandma Brown's Baked Beans (made in Mexico, NY). They're plain in the can, so we just add brown sugar, molasses, and bake them with a ton of bacon on top. Not quite the same thing as regular baked beans, they're not watery at all, on the thick side, but delicious. We have church and firehouse chicken bbq's every weekend all summer, you can always find one somewhere. All the same menu everywhere, never had a bad one. Open pit cooked Cornell bbq chicken, Grandma Brown's beans, salt potatoes with butter, and a nice soft roll with a butter pat. Usually on the inexpensive side, around $10-12 per meal.

I do

I'd say majority of Americans, how else are we in the situation we're in at the moment.

it wont be long before he will to

America isn't as free as you belive it to be that's the sad part

Speak for yourself bro

Brazilian steakhouse is what my husband asks to eat every date night😂😂😂 it is so delicious! my favorite part is the big salad bar, so yummy

@@michellek4349 🇧🇷 FOODS ARE 😋

I've had Brazilian steak before, e.g. Fogo de Chao, but are you talking about something different?

I love Brazilian Steakhouses! It was the best experience I've ever had at a restaurant too. They'd just keep coming in with different types of fresh grilled/smoked meats and cut you a serving if you want it. And grilled pineapple is heavenly. Now I'm hungry. 🤤

I can't help but think of film Bridesmaids everytime I drive past a Brazilian restaurant every day during my commute to work. No thanks, I'll pass on Brazilian restaurant.😂

💪😂

Me too! I just made a Texas style brisket and it was phenomenal. I was emotional.. lol

Same for sure.

you guys just skip the unnecessary and go straight for the PROTEIN!

@@YoelAndMari 💯

@jay mo 23. Another great way to dress green beans: 1. Sprinkle a little olive oil 2. Add Black pepper (Costco or grinder type) 3. Add Himalayan sea salt (Costco or grinder type) 4. Add 21 Season Salute (Trader Joe's). It's such a good combination, that we use it for several dishes.

MISSING BAKED BEANS, AND PECAN PIE

@@mitchmiller2382 I just don't like those type of green beans, I like the country style ones that are tender. Those are like the Asian style that are crunchy and raw tasting. But, the recipe sounds good, may try it on some southern style green beans.

How is the pizza?

@@RLSmith-jt8qj Most of the state is just chain pizza, but if you are in a big city like San Antonio you can find some really good local pizza shops.

Can you point me to the North Korean ones? Thanks and yes, you are correct, we are very blessed. Peace

@@johnb7046 I got you, brother. DIMPLE

I had a friend who was from Texas and he made some ribs for my highschool Graduation that were like that, I have to admit that it topped anything I had ever eaten previously.
