And the reason we are gathered around is because of this gadget right here
0:04
That's amazing. The inside, inside that steak is already 70. That is fast
0:09
Is it? Hot, oh, hot, hot, hot, hot. Hot but delicious. Our steak was pretty much at the maximum height
0:15
You don't need any more stress in your life. And there's a camera inside so you can monitor on your smartphone
0:20
14 minutes and 10 seconds with the potatoes. There's no way those potatoes are cooked
0:25
Wow, who would have thought we had a cooking show? Before we get into today's video, I want to mention that this kitchen gadget we're going to be looking at is going to be on sale
0:32
It's coming up very soon for Black Friday, around Black Friday. It doesn't go on sale often
0:37
Stick around to the end to get all the details. The studio's been transformed into a cooking show
0:42
Hooray! Cue the audience noise here. There's potatoes on the table. There's some steak on the table
0:51
Bake or don't bake cookies over there, which Jack picked out. And I think you're going to get a kick out of them
0:56
I've never even seen anything like it before. And the reason we are gathered round
1:00
is because of this gadget right here, a kitchen gadget. It's called the Brava
1:05
And this is like a new type of oven. It's hard to even call it an oven
1:12
because of me, it's an oven. It cooks things, but it has a completely different approach
1:16
It cooks with light and in different sections and segments. Fill up a tray like this one
1:22
or a tray like this one, one, two, three with a variety of food items
1:27
And instead of heating the whole thing up like the same, it can cook each ingredient independently
1:34
depending on what it is. So if you had broccoli up here on number three, you had steak down here on number one
1:40
obviously they have different cooking requirements. It can do that on one tray all at the same time
1:45
There's an app that goes with it with a variety of existing recipes
1:51
but you can of course just throw in whatever you like. and it's fast for me that's key this thing is speedy it's like a grilled cheese in a couple
1:59
minutes it's like potatoes in less than half the time of what it would take in the oven and there's
2:04
a camera inside so you can monitor on your smartphone everything that's happening with it
2:08
this temp sensor is gonna ensure that everything is cooked exactly properly so like for the steak
2:14
we'll just put in medium rare and be confident so we're not gonna screw up our 20 steak and
2:21
inserting it is is pretty straightforward as you can see you just slide it into the side of uh
2:27
what could be a steak it could be a chicken it could be whatever it is that you might have to
2:32
monitor the temperature for so open it up there's tray areas so there's a lower and upper tray a
2:38
couple of instructions here for for how to do one of these combination trays as far as filling the
2:44
tray up and then on the back a variety of things you can do on here and pretty wild you can cook a
2:49
pizza in here. You can do eggs in here. Obviously steak and potatoes is what we have. You can bake
2:54
in here. You can do breakfast in here. You can use the app. You can use the touchscreen here. It even
2:59
has a sear functionality, which I'm excited about because obviously when you're cooking something
3:03
like steak, it's important to have that ability. All right. I think we should just call Will over
3:08
because he very excited and interested in this device He the type of guy that could really take advantage of this right This would be suitable for you wouldn it Yeah You could do a whole meal on here Yeah Like you could do chicken wings I don know what type of thing you like to do but
3:24
Definitely wings. Definitely roasted potatoes. This will do, ladies and gentlemen. That's will do, ladies and gentlemen
3:33
This is your temp sensor. It connects on the inside here. Almost plugs in like a USB almost
3:39
and then this is gonna go into our steak. We're gonna put that right in there
3:44
It can do up to a two inch steak. Let's put the steaks to the side just for a moment. Let's get some potatoes going
3:50
He goes, just head over to the grocery store there and pick up, you know, one of those potato melodies
3:55
I was so confident. It's like, you mean medley, right, Will? Now potatoes in the oven, they take forever
4:02
One thing we don't have here is like any type of oil or fat
4:06
Like we don't have any butter or oil of any kind. So we're kind of missing that
4:11
But you know what, though? Can we actually get the fat from the beef
4:15
Talking about McDonald's french fries. There's a little beef fat in there. Beef tallow. Yeah. Just cut a part of that and then put it in there
4:22
It'll kind of soak into it. Will he do? Ladies and gentlemen, this guy's been around town
4:26
He's been around the block. That's what I'm saying. So, Will, let me explain to you why this is going to change your life, okay
4:31
Okay. because as it stands right now you're uh you're taking too many risks
4:39
the way you're crypto this is all about stability you monitor you leave the kitchen you just throw
4:49
it in you forget you just leave it alone right you don't have to worry yeah it's it's on your
4:54
phone you're getting the notification you got the probe in there you know how that is you don't need
4:59
any more stress in your life. Doing a little something like this. I'm just gonna scoop a few of these on there
5:05
Just right, too much, too little. We're close for sure. Okay, all right, here we go
5:12
Oh, that's salt, ladies and gentlemen. Here we go. A little salt on a potato, we'll take it
5:19
A little pepper on a potato. Well, the pepper smells great. You know, it's underappreciated
5:25
the type of like, just a typical spice. Sure, yeah. I appreciate it because it's like it's on everything, but..
5:31
What even is our cooking show? I'm having trouble pinpointing. It's like regular. It's very regular
5:37
We're regular people figuring things out. It's not, you know, the normal tap dance type thing to it
5:42
I'm just very aware of just me standing here with like a jacket
5:47
and just like staring over you making potatoes. I don't know how much we're going to do here
5:52
I'm going to just tap a little bit here. I think it's steak time
5:58
So inside the app, you can pick, I mean, such a variety of recipes
6:04
There's even like videos in here and stuff too. Pick what you wanna cook, including these combo plates
6:10
So I'm just gonna click on search over here. If I just type in steak, let's say, here we go
6:16
New York strip and potatoes. These are fingerling potatoes. We cut those potatoes
6:20
I think it's okay, no? New York strip steak, one and a quarter to two inches thick
6:24
This is two inches. Salt. It wants cooking oil. It's all right
6:30
We're gonna have dry potatoes. Place steak in zone one We did that Those potatoes might get stuck It says you supposed to toss them with oil Okay metal tray goes into the top shelf Can I just send this to the sent to my Braba Oh yeah check it out Look at that Go straight over here So I looking
6:46
picking what I want to cook and then it sees the steak in zone one and the potatoes in two and three
6:52
Okay, I'm going to close it up here. This is says 10 to 17 minutes. Wow. So this is where you choose
7:00
your preferred level of doneness from medium rare up to well done we'll keep it at medium rare
7:06
picture comes up oh there's a steak right there wow will come check this right now
7:14
you see the temperature 53 go up to 120 look i think we can can we see it on the phone too
7:20
oh look come on man now you're on the couch hanging out i'm just drooling yeah
7:29
yeah so satisfying yeah i can hardly smell the steak cooking oh yeah oh yeah you're starting to
7:36
cook all right oh yeah that's amazing the inside inside that steak is already 70 and you ever
7:42
barbecue like with a meat thermometer no that is fast is it yeah and that's hard to achieve
7:49
in your house when you just got to flapping around with your pans this guarantees it like
7:55
The steak has slowed down. It went up to 90 Fahrenheit really fast, then slowed
8:01
And just with my nose, I can tell it's working on the potatoes now
8:06
I'm bringing them up to the level of the steak. It's a really kind of cool ability
8:12
It's being really careful not to overcook the steak. It wants to hit exactly 120 and not more
8:18
Very granular. It only wants to go up one degree at a time. Target 120, medium rare, 14 minutes and 10 seconds with the potatoes
8:30
There's no way those potatoes are cooked. Open door and check your food before continuing
8:36
I mean, it smells, obviously smells delicious. Oh, man. That's a serious steak right there
8:43
I mean, the potatoes look cooked. Anything can happen here. I think it's good
8:51
Oh, look at that. Actually, top to bottom, it's actually pretty even
9:01
You said medium rare, right? This is medium rare, yeah. I was wondering if it's gonna cook top
9:06
and bottom equivalently. You see that? It does. I'm gonna just try a piece
9:13
Obviously a lot of it is a cut that he fought to begin with, but I love it
9:18
I mean, obviously I understand like the way we do this video is bare minimum
9:22
Like we literally slapped a piece of meat on it and some potatoes without oil
9:26
Mm, that's a steak right there. That's really good. The convenience of it is kind of amazing
9:32
We moved the potatoes over onto the oil and did a quick little top up. And this is the key to getting the oil in there
9:39
Now you could use obviously olive oil or something like that, but it's a key
9:44
Oh, I heard the crunch. Oh, hot, oh, hot, hot, hot, hot
9:49
Hot but delicious Is that cookie Cookie yeah I mean a lot of this has to do with just monitoring with a probe or some sort of a temperature check
10:01
But the problem with those is you're not going to leave it in the whole time. You definitely don't have a camera and everything is not enclosed and contained
10:07
And, like, how can you get that evenness top to bottom? I like to see the things that are baking, their progress
10:16
No, didn't you? When you were a kid, did you not sit in front of the oven
10:22
If your mom ever was baking something and you would like look in and turn the light on
10:26
Like it's almost ready. I didn't even know Lucky Charms cookies existed
10:33
Smells good. Way crunchier on the bottom than I expected. I'm a little concerned
10:43
It's gonna be too gooey, especially this cookie. Some type of Lucky Charms cookie here
10:50
But no, it has crunch to the bottom. Very pleasant. That's what you want in a cookie
11:04
Soft top, crunchy bottom. Mm-hmm, you did it. Steak, potatoes, cookies. whatever you want to eat, you do it in the oven, you do it with precision, you do it with efficiency
11:19
you do it with better speed. That is honestly my favorite part. Because of how high powered
11:24
these lights are, you're getting things that typically take a long time, you're getting in
11:29
a shorter period of time. So I like that. All right, so a little bit more about the holiday
