Welcome to Episode 52
SPEAKER_01And we're back for episode number 52. Hello. Today we're going to be talking a little bit about some beer cheese pizza we just made. The reason you probably should proof uh your yeast before you start making any pizza dough or bread, ain't that right?
SPEAKER_00Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER_01Because I'll tell you the blunders I had with that. And uh what else we got going on today? Dolores made some keto steak that she used the beer cheese sauce. Now, is that beer cheese a sauce I made keto?
SPEAKER_02Well, yeah, it has carbs in it, but it's not like you know, a bunch of carbs.
SPEAKER_01Just smothering a little bit wasn't too much. So I mean, what was it?
SPEAKER_02It's just beer, heavy whipping cream.
SPEAKER_01Right.
SPEAKER_02Um the beer. Well, I don't know about the beer part.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, it well, it I mean, you cook the beer out.
SPEAKER_02I don't know the carbon.
SPEAKER_01But I don't know if you cook the carbs out.
SPEAKER_02So you that's interesting because I mean I didn't get anything. So yeah, so I mean I didn't have like a whole lot of it.
SPEAKER_01Right. So we're gonna talk about that, check into some comments from some of the videos. See there, got her thinking on the fly. We'll be talking a bit about that here shortly.
Beer Cheese Pizza Breakdown
SPEAKER_00It probably wasn't either fire up that grill from smoke door to smoke better. Outdoor cooking good. This is the open smoking podcast. And here's your host, Doctor Barry.
SPEAKER_01So, welcome in, uh back into episode number 52, where it has been a pretty good week here, right here in our Oklahoma backyard. Uh done some pretty good uh cooks. Uh we're gonna talk about let's go ahead and start out with that beer cheese pizza. Now, this is the second time I made it. And Dolores, did you try the pack the one in the past?
SPEAKER_02No, I did not because I was still on keto. But she but the kids, the kids loved it. I said it was good. But this time I this time I did try the beer cheese. But uh, you know, kind of think about it, it couldn't have been low carb because you put like beer in it, but uh you say I only put a fourth.
SPEAKER_01Well, I did I didn't measure and I say a fourth, but a fourth of beer to me is probably closer to half.
SPEAKER_02Really? You know my my thing is like I didn't get anything, so that was that's okay.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, but the the the beer though is a miniature for for what you use. I mean, it's not like you're you know, we've also got we put a half a cup, or no, we put a full cup of mozzarella cheese.
SPEAKER_02We probably put like two tablespoons on my my stake.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, it's not gonna equate to anything once you think about it in that way. So there wasn't hardly any carbs in that.
SPEAKER_02It was really good though. I must say, uh, maybe next time I'll do some low low carb beer in there.
SPEAKER_01I just don't know. I mean, because low carb beer don't have any danger.
SPEAKER_02Don't be weird, don't be weed. I mean, you're gonna have a flat beer cheesecake. My corona for years. You don't have to eat it. I will.
SPEAKER_01I was thinking next time we throw a good IPA in there.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. So no, thank you, sir.
SPEAKER_01Well, use Miller High Life, which is uh, you know, of course, the champagne of beers. It's it's a it's a pretty good uh inexpensive beer too.
SPEAKER_02It doesn't taste like beer. No, and you know, but I think if you put the IP in there, uh I think it would taste like it.
SPEAKER_01Or a good dark beer.
SPEAKER_02No, ew.
SPEAKER_01You know, looks like coffee, looks like engine oil. Put that in there. I think I'll make my own my own beer cheese.
SPEAKER_02You definitely will have to make it by yourself because yeah, I'll make my own version and make yours.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_02But I didn't get to taste the pizza, but dang it, it looked good.
SPEAKER_01But no, that sounds pretty cool. We could do that, and we we could do a video of a low try to make a low-carb beer cheese pizza and see how it compares. I don't know about pizza because beer cheese.
SPEAKER_02You haven't like done the the crushed the keto part.
SPEAKER_01Because uh our kids, or Ryan, he was eating it with some chips while we were making the pizza, and they seemed to he seemed to like it. I never did try to dip to dip it in.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, and we had like a little bit left in the in the the pan, and it used away by accident. You thought it was empty, and they were gonna use it on the cacilla.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, they made they made some cacillas.
SPEAKER_02They made chicken cacillas and you do it on.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I mean there was a bit on the side, I guess they were gonna scrape off of it. So I I messed them up there because I mean we were trying it's kind of like a dog licking the bowl at that point, but we went in with it. I don't know, man. It was that good, folks. So everybody really enjoyed the beer, cheese, pizza. I mean, seriously, just started out with a couple of tablespoons of butter, a couple of tablespoons of flour, some milk or heavy cream, throw the beer in, a little seasoning cheese. That's it.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, but did you know that they liked my version instead of your version?
SPEAKER_01So let's talk the pizzas. We've talked the beer cheese, which is awesome. And and I think we do need to try a low-carb version.
SPEAKER_02Heck yeah, I'm down for that.
SPEAKER_01And we we like, I even like this. So there used to be a restaurant around town and and they don't do it anymore, but they used to have their own pork skins that you would dip. Remember that? They're homemade pork skins. Oh, they were so good. They they discontinued them. Hopefully they bring them back.
SPEAKER_02They were nice and warm and warm pork skins.
SPEAKER_01If if you get some good pork skins, it would be good to dip in that. It's pork skin has uh what is it, zero carb?
SPEAKER_02Yeah. Well, it depends on what pork skins.
Low-Carb Alternatives Discussion
SPEAKER_01And if you have seasonings, of course. So you would dip that in there. And I actually like pork skins as a dip. Like, you know, you get some pork skins and queso versus chips and queso. Excellent. So some pork skins and this mere cheese would be great.
SPEAKER_02When you did your uh corn dip the last time I used my cake, my pork skins, because I tasted really good with it, even though it's not lacurb on the the dip that you made, but it was delicious with the pork skins.
SPEAKER_01Right. But we'll jump into the pizza. Uh with you. We did the same toppings, but you did your. We actually put a few, you put a little extra.
SPEAKER_02I didn't put the regular cheese, nor did I put pepper ones on it.
SPEAKER_01Right.
SPEAKER_02But I put all the leftover sausage in the bacon, and then I added more beer cheese to the top, and I added pepper flakes.
SPEAKER_01Pepper flakes, and I'm surprised because that's awesome. I mean, you like pepper flakes after the pizza's cooked. She put it on before it was cooked. This was an over-the-top heap. So beer cheese. We had some sausage uh cooked up, some bacon. You put that on there, right? And then some of the grilled onions.
SPEAKER_02Oh, yeah, I put some grilled onions on it. Also, grilled onions like that.
SPEAKER_01Oh, caramelized onions on top of that thing. Don't put them raw, caramelize them.
SPEAKER_02I think mine was more like like soy than pretty yours.
SPEAKER_01She is the artist. So when it comes to wanting it to just look really, really special to make it look just beautiful. Um that that's what Dolores does. So she had her pizza, and you looked at it and you're like, wow. I mean, just just take a look at that. That is photo Genesis right there. And mine, it it don't always look the best, but hey, I'm looking for takes.
SPEAKER_02You said that yours tastes good, but you liked mine more.
SPEAKER_01She did put the red pepper flakes she did not add the extra mozzarella cheese because I sprinkled some extra mozzarella on top. You can see the whole video, check out the okie smoke and uh YouTube.
SPEAKER_02Maybe you guys shouldn't have added the extra cheese to it because it was already because the sauce is where it's at.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I I know, I know. But you know, you just keep thinking add more cheese, add more cheese.
SPEAKER_02I just added more sauce to the top of it, and it looks so good. I wish I could have had a bite of that.
SPEAKER_01It was it was fire, it really was.
SPEAKER_02Uh but I had mean my steaks, and my steak was good, and then I have leftovers today.
SPEAKER_01So let's jump into as we uh continue talking about some of the cooks we did this last week. We did a sirloin steak. You still have a couple of them.
SPEAKER_02We cooked those so I can eat them for dinner on the big green egg as well.
SPEAKER_01How'd those turn out? We why'd you put on those? You just she's really got to where you just have one particular season. Let's talk about that. What's that seasoning? Is it the Montreal?
SPEAKER_02Yeah, that's what it is. I like it because it has everything in it. And you don't have to add extra stuff. It tastes really good with that.
SPEAKER_01And and it's a low carb.
SPEAKER_02Like you don't have to have anything else on it.
SPEAKER_01Now you did say though I had a little bit of a spot you thought was a little undercooked in there, but I thought it looked really good.
SPEAKER_02It was a little too uh undercooked. A little too undercooked, but I mean it tasted fine, and it tasted fine. I always don't like nasty. But you know how I am. I like it medium well. This one's kind of a little just on parts of it, but a little, a little raw type, a little, I don't know.
SPEAKER_01If you're still here with us, this is what we do. We try to bring out an episode every week, talk about some of the things we cooked in the in the past week or two.
SPEAKER_02Do you know what I was wanting you to make? I forgot to ask you if you make some roast on the on the little green guy.
SPEAKER_01The big green egg.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, I don't know why I can't say that.
SPEAKER_01She always calls it the little thing, but uh the little green guy. The little green guy, but it it is it it's it's the mini-max version. It's the 13.
SPEAKER_02Why do they call it the big egg?
SPEAKER_01Well, I mean, they've got multiple sizes.
Steak and Caramelized Onions
SPEAKER_02I know. When we went to whatever that place was called, they had a huge one, which is crazy.
SPEAKER_01Right, they had one that's I mean it's like an extra. If that was the only cooker, the only grill, the only smoker I had, maybe, but I've got so many different ones. That small one works per me. And you would have to have two bags of charcoal in that sucker.
SPEAKER_02Oh yeah, I can imagine. Yeah, that's pretty big. But I was wanting to do a roast and I forgot to ask you.
SPEAKER_01That's a roast is something something we could do. I think that sounds good because you know, it just sounds like our last episode we had talked, we were gonna do some wings. We never got to the wings.
SPEAKER_02That was you want to do the wings.
SPEAKER_01Still want to do some wings on the big green egg. Haven't done it yet, so that's something that I would like to do.
SPEAKER_02I don't know, I was just chickened out. I think we have too much chicken on, you know, it was just too much chicken lately.
SPEAKER_01Just for a second, I just want to jump into some comments we've had in the last uh week or so. Got uh my high mile high guy guy bar Mile High Guy Barbecue Scott over there. He uh commented on uh one of the videos, the quick sirloin cook.
SPEAKER_02Oh, that's the sirloin, huh?
SPEAKER_01I just realized I'm looking at this, and I've misspelt the quick sirloin cook on T G E. I've got to fix that. You you found some spelling errors.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, he put geet instead of greats.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, so quick sirloin on I I'll fix maybe not, I don't know, but I just saw it. Yeah, like the spelling. I just noticed the typo there. But uh Mile High Guy, Barbie Scott, said that is one on my bucket list getting a big green egg one day. And so far everything we've cooked on has been fantastic.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, I really like um you know what you're supposed to do, and you haven't done it yet. So what's that is make those cinnamon rolls. You're supposed to videotape it this weekend.
SPEAKER_01We do have some cinnamon rolls. We're gonna do that. We've got to do that this week. That may just be a little deal we drop midweek. Yeah, maybe. Maybe it'll drop a little later. But uh yeah, we'll do those cinnamon rolls. I think that's gonna be great. I still want to do cookies on it, haven't got to that yet.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, my grandson didn't want to do it last time, did he?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, he was not into it. He's got his rooms and things, but they're not wanting to do it. He he's busy.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, he's been a very popular kid this summer playing playing with his friends.
SPEAKER_01I see cooking with Sherry, and I haven't we haven't talked about this one, the BLT Cooked Live.
SPEAKER_02Oh my gosh, I forgot about the BLT. So what's funny about the BLT sandwich is we were inside the grocery store. We were going to get hot links, but they only have like one brand of hot links them all. Like, yeah. And then I was like, ooh, BLT sounds so good. And that's how we started making them.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah, because to be honest, the little Walmart we've had to have the worst selection of hot links I've ever seen. They had one pack of four, and it was like ten dollars or something. Eight ten dollars for like four hot links. I said no. So we we went with the BLT. That's how we come up with it.
SPEAKER_02And I just thought BLT sounded so good.
SPEAKER_01She made hers with uh a low-carb bread. But what's that bread you use? Talk about that.
SPEAKER_02Sola.
SPEAKER_01Sola. And what is that? One carb per uh two slices?
SPEAKER_02No, one carb per slice. And then I had me a tomato, bacon, lettuce, and some cheese online with the man.
SPEAKER_01She was picky on the tomato.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, it had to be a thin slice.
SPEAKER_01I try I tried to put a nice looking big tomato.
SPEAKER_02I was like, no, no, no, no, no.
SPEAKER_01Didn't want that one. Uh but cooking with Sherry said, yum. Also, we're looking here, coupe de grille on our double smoked baked potato. We may have talked about this last episode. Yeah. Uh but this just came in a couple days ago.
SPEAKER_02Those looked good.
SPEAKER_01He said these look good. Love us some potatoes up here. What's this?
BLT Sandwiches and Comments
SPEAKER_02Those would be good for a party. When you cut them in halves.
SPEAKER_01Right.
SPEAKER_02Or even forks on those. I don't think make a little one.
SPEAKER_01Yep. Mr. Mega Fred Zeppelin said rocking looks delicious. I like their Fred Zeppelin. Yeah, that he's cool. And uh the bones pulled right out of the video. Have you seen that? That that was the one that oh my gosh, that that was fantastic.
SPEAKER_02Well, I think someone had some off of mine.
SPEAKER_01Yes.
SPEAKER_02But I basically took over on it. I ate it for two days. And it was so good.
SPEAKER_01On the uh which one did you eat for two days?
SPEAKER_02The ribs that you made. Oh, right. The fall off the bone.
SPEAKER_01The fall off the bone.
SPEAKER_02See, I like it that way. I know you're not supposed to make it that way, but that way is good. Don't you agree?
SPEAKER_01Yes. I'm looking. There was someone that uh that had commented, and I'm trying to find it here. Oh, here we go. It's Cindy Eastbourne 7642. She said, Do the keto shells taste as good as regular? This is on our a real old video we did, Smash Burger Tacos.
SPEAKER_02So I must say they have mission um zero carb tortillas, and I don't really care for those, but I can't remember the ones that I buy from Walmart. It has like an X. It starts with an X. And those ones are really, really good. And to me, those taste like tortillas. Stay with us. We'll be right back.
SPEAKER_01Hey y'all, it's John from the Okie Smoking Podcast.
SPEAKER_02And I'm the learners.
SPEAKER_01We wanted to tell you real quick about something we've been loving in the kitchen lately, the once-for-all meat slicer.
SPEAKER_02This slicer was a game changer. You guys, it's perfect for slicing a beef jerky for the head of carnival.
SPEAKER_01But what I really love is it's a beef for making tomato burger. You can slice and grind your own meat for that and fast.
SPEAKER_02We even put together a video and a website so you can go to the entity and then actually.com slash slicer. That's okay. For the details and links if you want to grab one yourself.
SPEAKER_01That's okesmokin.com slash slicer. Go check it out. So if you go to Walmart and you find the ones, is is the X like in the center of the bag? Is that the first letter?
SPEAKER_02No, it's the first letter. It says zero carbs, but they also make different ones of it. That's not zero carbs, so you gotta watch that.
SPEAKER_01And you think that's one of the better ones.
SPEAKER_02I think those taste really good. And this I went to Crest and they didn't have those, so I bought Mama Lou's or something like that. And there's theirs wasn't that bad. But still, the the one with the X that starts with the X is the best one.
SPEAKER_01Okay, someone that is wanting to create something low carb, close to keto, uh and wants to get tortillas. Is there any brand you've ever had that you would say stay away from? It it didn't taste as good or or anything.
SPEAKER_02I just don't like the mission one.
SPEAKER_01The mission, that's the only one.
SPEAKER_02But everybody everybody goes like everybody likes the mission ones, and I just and that's the biggest brand. Yeah. I just don't like the way it tasted. I don't know, there's something about it.
SPEAKER_01Okay, not not a fan of the mission uh keto or I guess it depends on your taste.
SPEAKER_02I mean, you may like the mission ones compared to me, you know.
SPEAKER_01Right. Yeah, everybody will, it's all subjective. Yeah, yeah, for sure that is. I was also as one.
SPEAKER_02And I I do like the low-carb tortillas, they taste pretty good, uh.
SPEAKER_01Yep. Um as I mentioned earlier in the beginning of the video, we also were gonna talk just a little bit about your yeast.
SPEAKER_02Yeast.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_02Why do you say your yeast? It's not my yeast.
SPEAKER_01Active yeast.
SPEAKER_02There you go.
SPEAKER_01And so we I had I made a pizza, and in the pizza, the dough did not rise.
SPEAKER_02Twice.
SPEAKER_01Twice. And there is nothing worked because I I didn't pay attention, you know. We I was planning on making the pizza.
SPEAKER_02You know that you went to sleep that's why.
SPEAKER_01So that's why it's important. If you're going to make something that requires it to rise, whether it be bread, whether it be pizza dough, rolls, whatever it is, and you, you know, pass out.
SPEAKER_02You bear set timer.
SPEAKER_01You need to wake up and have it do its thing. You want to wake up and it's risen. You want to wake up and it's in good shape. You don't want to wait three hours and realize it was a total bust. That's what happened here. Did that pizza dough look it just it didn't rise at all?
SPEAKER_02No, but you know what's funny is uh when I got it from the oven and me and Ryan were talking about it, I said, Hey, we can make play-doh out of this. So that's how it was. It was like play-doh texture.
SPEAKER_01It would be good for you know, use it as some flatbread or something.
SPEAKER_02No, but we tossed it because you left it in there too long. It got hard.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So there it goes. So what I did is I went and got some new active yeast. And we basically did just a test.
SPEAKER_02With that, with that yeast and stuff, can you make fresh cinnamon rolls? Sure. How can you ever do that then? Or even even uh like rolls.
SPEAKER_01Oh yeah. I could use the bread machine to have it mix up the dough.
SPEAKER_02Uh, if we do the rolls, we could do an an imitation of the Texas Roadhouse rolls.
SPEAKER_01Oh golly. So much pressure. How am I gonna do all this? Huh. See, see, I never run out of ideals because she keeps them stacking. I got over there.
SPEAKER_02This sounds so good. I know I can't have them, but I would definitely eat it.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, we'll have to do that on a cheat day.
SPEAKER_02Uh-huh.
SPEAKER_01You tell me when we're gonna give it a go. What the fuck? Well, I guess the beer cheese.
SPEAKER_02I didn't even know, man.
Yeast Proofing Lessons
SPEAKER_01Yeah, that was really, really good. But going back to the active yeast, what you gotta do is what you should do is make sure it's alive and well before you putting it in your recipe. So I went out and we got some new, a new jar of it, and we put it next to the old. Put some water near 100 degrees in each of them, the same amount. Just throw a tablespoon of yeast from the old and a yeast from the new in two two different cups. But you can sell that.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, you can really tell what what the old one was, because there was the old one was on this side when it and the new one was on this side. Yeah, you could tell.
SPEAKER_01And yeah, one of them was just flat.
SPEAKER_02It was all like like some stuff came out, but most of it was like water on the top part.
SPEAKER_01It it it almost looked like just a clump of nothing.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, kind of it reminded me of like when you add oil to something, the oil just sits thinking.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, you could definitely tell it wasn't any good. And you could we did a video on that if you want to check it out. But basically the one that was good almost instantly, because I was re-watching the video and I suddenly and I was stirring it. And I'm sitting there and I said, Well, here in a little bit we'll see if there's any bubbles or see if anything. I'm watching a video and there's already bubbles in it the whole time. It's like people are probably watching it's like, yeah, that one's looking good. Compared to the one that did nothing. There was no bubbles in there.
SPEAKER_02So why did that one go flat? When it was new too, basically on that.
SPEAKER_01It was pretty new. I mean, it's not that old. Um, it didn't last that long.
SPEAKER_02It was what where did we buy it though? Didn't we buy it at the Walmart market?
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_02Maybe that's why that was not that long ago when we bought that.
SPEAKER_01It wasn't that long ago.
SPEAKER_02We should have checked the dates on it.
SPEAKER_01It should last longer, but it didn't for whatever reason. So but it's important, I would say, whenever you're going to use anything that requires yeast, make sure you don't put the yeast directly in the recipe. Number one. And number two, you're gonna have to probably add water or something, and then you'll put the yeast in it. Stir it, get the bubbles, make sure you get a little foam that verifies it's good before adding it to the recipe. If you don't get those signs, you probably need to go get some other yeast so you don't waste it with your time and everything.
SPEAKER_02Did you just rush it and put everything together and then stick it down in there?
SPEAKER_01No, I I didn't do that. I actually did put the yeast in the water separately, like you're supposed to, and I just stirred it. I just I guess I kind of rushed it. I did I didn't well, I just didn't look. I just stirred it. I just assumed. Yeah, I just assumed so I added it to all of the flour because when it comes to making the pizza dough, which by the way is one of the best pizza doughs when it's done right, in my opinion.
SPEAKER_02You know what? Speaking of pizza dough, I think there is a keto pizza dough that I could buy off of Amazon. And you just add either water or whatever to it.
SPEAKER_01I wonder what that's made out of.
SPEAKER_02I don't know. I remember like looking online for you know, like breads and stuff. You know how how I used to buy that one bread. What was that? The bread that I used to buy on online, it had like tortillas and all all sorts of bread together. Who was that?
SPEAKER_01Do they not have that anymore?
SPEAKER_02Yeah, they do, but remember it's expensive.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, it's kind of it's it's it's it's not really made out of the stuff of bread because bread basically bread can't be keto. They find alternative uh things to make it taste similar to bread or close to.
SPEAKER_02Whenever I find out what that bread was, I'll let you guys know because that one was so good. It came with two loaves of bread and also three sets of tortillas in it. And I know it's expensive, but it was so good. It used to get delivered to our house. And one year it got delivered to someone else's house, and we got their package, remember? I was so sad. I told I called my husband, like, oh my gosh, they sent mine to their own house. We have so many else's. But then later on, they came to our house when we're gone, remember? And they they were looking for their package.
SPEAKER_01Right, and we and they were not real close, they were a couple streets away.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, and they handed our package to Jacob, right? I think so.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_02And that's how he got home.
SPEAKER_01And that was FedEx, if I if I remember right.
SPEAKER_02So then when we got home, we delivered it to her house.
SPEAKER_01Right, yeah, they brought our package to our house when we weren't here. Jacob or son took the package. We looked at the package, the name on the package was the person of the package we had delivered.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. And I ordered off of Amazon too, but it comes FedEx.
SPEAKER_01That one came FedEx. Most of them do come Amazon.
SPEAKER_02Well, that one always comes FedEx on that one. Because it's not really by Amazon, I guess.
SPEAKER_01Right, it's delivered third party or whatever, I'm not sure.
SPEAKER_02But so it was cheaper on Amazon than the site, I should say.
SPEAKER_01We took, we actually went and drove the package to the correct person.
SPEAKER_02Gosh, now that's gonna bug me that I can't remember the name of that bread.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, you need to try to figure that out because you do, we you know, as you know, we do have several people.
SPEAKER_02And I that bread was bombed.
SPEAKER_01That kind of listened. Listen to you and and a lot of the things you do and and are in the low-carb stratosphere. And and always like uh to find out what it is you're eating and stuff like that. I'm gonna go ahead and look in here and see if there's any more comments. Let me take a look.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, I I knew what it was called. It was called Hero.
SPEAKER_01Hero.
Keto Bread Options
SPEAKER_02Hero bread and tornadoes. It's a site right here. But I remember getting it off of Amazon.
SPEAKER_01H-E-R-O. And look on there, how much is that bread? And she takes a look at it here. And how many slices are in that? And you say that taste, would you say that is as close to bread as you can get as far as taste?
