@MattayManic No , we don't like it or enjoy queuing. It's just we have to queue. Not queuing and waiting your turn is just selfish and ignorant . When there's more than one person waiting on the same business or service , it's polite to queue and it's not fair for anyone to think they can just jump a queue .🎉
Credit where credit is due. This guy's smashing it. Amazing prices, giving back to the community and putting in the work while getting the just rewards. Hats off to him.
@charbabyFNF he does 5 kidney dialysis treatments at home a week. He explains in a video he needs 25 hours of dialysis a week. He puts needles in himself and does them through his sleep due to his busy schedule.
It's literally a potato with tinned crap on it. He seems like a top bloke but don't blow smoke up your own behinds. It's nothing special. God people aren't half sheep 😂😂😂😂😂
There’s another guy that does jacket potato’s videos on RU-vid up north. He’s an absolute plonker to his customers and thinks he’s a celebrity because he can take a potato out of an oven and pour tinned baked beans on top. It’s completely bizarre…. We live in such a narcissistic society these days it’s baffling.
I think people just want to experience things in life, no matter how simple they may be. But of course, there is always someone who has a negative take on something regardless of the fact that there is nothing but positivity in this video. Speaks volumes about your own wellbeing.
@@kurtisbrown9379 he's right though, its really sad to think that someones life could be so dull that a highlight for them is booking a hotel just to get a baked potato
@gtaluvr1992 I think it's quite sad that that's your perspective. I highly doubt these people are travelling to this place solely for a baked potato. They'll most likely explore the place and make a weekend out of it, with getting a potato a small highlight of it. You have zero knowledge of what the people are doing when they go. Have you asked each and every one of these "dull" people what they're actually doing when they turn up? No, of course you haven't, because you're sat here making uneducated comments about people and what they enjoy. Again, it speaks volumes on your own happiness 😊
@@colinbrown7305No, because it the food is shit, nobody returns or the fad doesn't last long (like Binley Mega Chippy). The food is more important, but the marketing gets the message out.
@@colinbrown7305 Not true at all, food is better then marketing because if the food isnt good people wont recommend it. Therefore no marketing and no customers.
@@TheworldisscrewedThis is where you have the difference between 'necessary' & 'sufficient' conditions. Good good is necessary to be successful, but it's not enough on its own. People have to know about you, particularly when they already have other options around & old habits taking them there.
So glad you came to our town Danny. it is a privilege for us that you visited one of out top guys "Spudman". I have been eating at Spud man’s van for over 19 years as I work and live in town centre. Best spuds around and always 100% smack on. We are so lucky to have Ben in our town, he is a super nice guy with an incredibly generous attitude and he cares so much. We will continue support this man as in rain, snow, sun, he is there to look after our town. Thank you for visiting it means so much to all of us Tamworvians, Tammie's or Sandybacks as we are called. Keep up the good work pal.
That is one apt and beautiful sentiment. As long as smaller towns continue to have a Spudman, England is not lost. The spirit of good people carries on for a better land.
@UkL100 do you know how to spell arsehole as well? The guy who said it was a privilege was only leaving a compliment and your straight in bringing them down with your superiority complex.
This country has gone mad. Why the hell are people booking hotels for a jacket potato and tinned chilli. Kevin and Perry stood there watching him eat for half a hour aswell 😂
Right now yes. But social media trends come and go, they’re riding a wave and enjoying it. Without invalidating them, this is a trend. They’ll stay successful but not at this peak
It's strange that jacket potato shops and wagons are so niche nowadays, I remember quite a few places selling jacket potatoes with fillings in the 80s and 90s, those served up by that lad there do look lovely, nice to see him doing well and all the best to him in the future.
What this man really needs to hear is a thank you for helping locals. This is basically a takeout and it's priced RIGHT. To some this will be their food highlight of the weekend. Helping everyone and helping himself, it's just superb. A true Brit looking out for others, what we need so much of. I love him for this.
@@paul_rafterythat's literally it, I eat jacket spuds daily but I woukdnt que for these. 4 spuds for 70p a tin of beans for 50p, and about 30g of cheese (400g is 3 quid) and it's literally under a quid worth of ingredients in the cheesey beans one although he probably lashes 100g of cheese on haha which I would not reccomend 😂 full of saturated fat
Spudman has got it nailed. What he's achieved is amazing and wish him all the best going forward. Yet another awesome video Danny, I'm a new follower, so catching up with your previous videos. 👌🏻
They're jacket potatoes at the end of the day, no different to those you'll find in most towns up and down the country. I wish the chap all the very best, but this simply shows the power of social media and the dreaded "influencers." A lesson to be learned for all you whippersnappers there.
@@lewis9752i can sense pain in the butt. Probably you are one of those who make own toppings :p Swimming in the sea catching fresh tuna. Growing own chillis etc 😂😂😂
Well done to our mate Spudman (Ben) he is an absolute amazing man he deserves so much especially with everything he has gone through. he absolutely smashed it as we knew he would line was so long yesterday (Saturday) and enjoyed by people all over from Bristol to skegness just to name a few. Glad you had the opportunity to taste such warm hearty spuds and thanks for making me want one at 2:07am 😅
Lol god you are very easily manipulated. I’m sure he’s a nice character personally, but he is a also a good businessman. He wants commerce. It pays for him to be kind, friendly and generous when selling food items. Nobody wants to buy food from a stingy mardy bum. With the astute businessman that he is I see him being a firm landlord. A landlord should be firm. Fair, of course, but firm.
That was a good review , spuds start at 3 pounds with butter + 1 pound a filling it’s affordable food. Where else could 4 people be fed for that price. Good on spud man he has been trading in Tamworth for 21years so deserves to make a few quid and does a lot to promote the town and local economy
if he makes it himself it wont be as cheap, also hes a joke is he ? hes literally currently doing a 'free' day to raise money for charity giving away 1000+ spuds
marketing is what separates it from the others. You know of this one, but not the random one located in Leeds city centre, or the one in coventry. The fact you're commenting on a video advertising it, is the difference, also. but yeah, its just a spud ultimately
That's how crazy humans are they'll queue for nearly 2 hours for a cheese spud because it's on tiktok but won't walk five minutes to see a family member or friend because they had a gripe with each other from years ago
Hello Danny 👋 if you're ever in kings lynn, Norfolk. There's a really good spud shop here called Renegade spudz! There's also a shop next door called Waffleoppolis, owned by the same family! Well worth a look mate! Love your videos, keep up the great work!
@@darkphoenixb4u81so what? If people want to do that then it’s their prerogative. Who are you guys? What have you ever achieved? Man there’s some negative people on the internet. Never have anything good to say.
@@ThePilbaraPrince it's a opinion mate some people want to wait 1 hour for tinned shit on a hot potato. That they can get in any market. People love getting marketed to. Spudman has my respect. Don't worry about my achievements 🤣 crying over a comment .
It's amazing how many people will queue an hour for something they could cook at home in under 45 minutes for 1/4 of the price!! The power of social media eh?😂 That said, the prices for a takeaway are amazingly good, and the volume of customers proves the quality must be great too.. well done that man!!
Reminds me of my uncle. He was an army chef , was all about high volume simple but crowd pleasing scran. Consistent portions and quality and a bit of vfm. Does a mean buffet and makes his own coleslaw and scotch eggs etc etc nothing bought .
Hardest course in the army that--no one has passed yet. (jk, loved the cooks attached to my unit overseas, come back from patrol and always willing to make you a nice egg banjo and a hot cuppa if you missed meal time)
Cameraman wearing a helmet haha, we've already seen your face pal it's on google images :P Been to this place myself it is proper nice and he does really pack the spud with toppings too, top bloke deserves to be succesful.
Wtf you talking about proper nice… it’s a baked potato they are all exactly the same using exactly the same tinned ingredients. There is no proper nice potato it’s a potato you melt.
What's wrong with people ..Really .. doesn't even look appetizing. Get yourself the supermarket and make it yourself it's much better. People really just buy anything 😂
@@handsoffmycactus2958 I’m absolutely made up for the bloke riding this wave of success, good luck to him. But people who live miles away are coming down and staying in a hotel overnight just so they can say they’ve been to this jacket potato guy….of course they’re thick! Wanting to be “in” on the latest social media/Tik Tok trend.
@@handsoffmycactus2958 I’m absolutely made up for the bloke….good luck to him making so much money from idiots. People are travelling from miles away and staying overnight in hotels for a jacket potato…of course they’re thick! Wanting to be “in” on the latest social media/Tik Tok trend 🐑🐑
I'm so jealous of you guys in the uk. When I was a visitor to England, I used to get baked potatoes. People here in the US can't believe that it would be a meal. Nor can they believe the toppings! Not really to the American taste. But, I loved the toppings, especially coleslaw. I wish now I had tried a curry topping. :-( I remember the crispy skin blackened in some places of the tater. So yummy covered in butter. Thanks for your review. I am going to tell me friends about Spudman so they can see the Brits love for potatoes in action!
@@Coxy-b34 Nothing, I guess is stopping me from using my home oven. But, there is really no places that sell something like a spud as Danny had. That's what I am talking about. :-)
@@Zelea-nj3pz Well, perhaps it is my Irish ancestry which explains my love for potatoes. We always had potatoes in the house, not pasta or rice. I guess you might be right about the lack of deep frying now that I think about it.
I like this Spudman guy and fair play to him. But the idea of driving hours to get a jacket potato is frankly insane. I've seen his prep videos and most of the fillings are out of a tin so it's hardly gourmet quality. So I don't get it. Though I say again fair play to him for making a good living out of spuds.
Greggs is terrible terrible food as a Brit here. Who told you Greggs was good food? Only really poor people like students and chavs eat at Greg’s because everything is the cheapest quality tasteless pastry with cheapest ingredients. Nobody chooses to eat at Greggs for taste.
Wouldn't catch me waiting more than 10 minutes for any food, no matter how good it is. These tiktok food places are great for small businesses but the ques are ridiculous for some of them.
We get half of that in ipswich and priced more why the hell do i live in suffolk i might have to personally come tamworth and if there stone baked ovens and potatoes they make it more tasty i swear nothing beat stone baked stuff
You've gone down in my estimations here Danny. Giving a solid 10 to Tinned Chicken Curry and Tinned Chilli. Embarrassing. FYI he also bangs all of the jacket toppings into the baines-marie COLD (including canned meats) and slowly heats them up. If you know anything about food prep you know that this isn't ok.
Yet he is the one with a good van making loads of cash with his good hygiene certificate while you sit at home on the internet wasting your limited time on this earth :)
@@markasplinhqthe irony. You're literally wasting "your precious time on this planet" replying to every single negative comment. Is Spudman your boyfriend?
@@Scrubber89 not wasting my time… We have two choices in life, we can build each other up or tear other down. It’s a waste of your life tearing other people down just make yourself a little bit better. It’s more a reflection on your own life if you feel the need to tear other people down. Is he my boyfriend? No, but I will always respect people that build something for themselves, are kind to others and give back to people and the community like he does
I wish him the best but I'd never queue just because tik tok or Facebook or wherever told me too. People will literally do something just because of something they've seen on social media. Then kids get laughed at for wanting prime. The Curry is out of a tin too but fair play to spud man he doesn't disguise that and shows it on his videos.
I wouldnt even wait 15 minutes in a que for tinned curry or chilli on a spud. The beinz arnt even branded, people que for 2 hours and could have made homemade chilli and a spud at home 😅
