Binging with Babish 6M Subscriber Special: Turf N’ Turf from Parks & Recreation
Want to cook second breakfast with me in New Zealand? You could win the ultimate Lord of the Rings adventure in New Zealand thanks to my friends at Omaze. Support Action Against Hunger and enter here: http://bit.ly/You-Me-New-Zealand
With the exception of Ben Wyatt’s likely fandom, however, Lord of the Rings has nothing to do with the subject of today’s episode: Parks & Rec’s Ron Swanson. In wishing to celebrate the big 6M, Ron’s favorite order at Charles Mulligan’s Steakhouse seemed fitting: prime, dry-aged beef with a side of prime, dry-aged beef. Forgive me, for I have sinned. Thank you all SO MUCH for helping me reach 6 million subscribers!!

JUST SO YA KNOW: We put out our cigars as soon as the cameras stopped rolling. Smoking is bad. Juuling is bad. Quitting is hard, but I did it, and so can you!
@Schozi Okto Do your best! We’re all rooting for you!
@Michael Colen how kind! thank you so much 🖤
you aren’t safe, incidents happen

Good for you
There’s a carnivorous diet, and then there’s Ron Swanson, whose carnivore level currently sits at “master”. His level of meat consumption is not meant for mere mortals.
Paul
Awwwww man, you poor thing. 😔
If mortal men did eat like Ron they’d have one less foot to walk around on.
@Paul It’s a joke about how much meat he eats. Yes, humans are omnivores, but people who really love meat call themselves “carnivores”.
Actually Ron secretly loves plums
Really, this is a omnivore meal. Why you may ask? Because of the mashed potatoes. Those ruined Rons pure carnivore. However if he had the choice, I’m sure Ron would definitely be a pure carnivore and nothing else.
“Which tastes like a delicious tire fire.”
I’m glad even you seem to think so. Allegedly it gets better once you’re past the first bottle, but so far I’ve only met one person who managed to drink an entire bottle of it and then decided to buy another.
Peated scotch is an extremely acquired taste. I didn’t get it until I’d started my night with a dirty martini and a friend poured me some Laphroaig. I’d tried it before, but the taste buds previously saturated with one flavor were then able to taste the more subtle notes behind “tire fire.” Now I always have a bottle, though I do love the non-peated stuff too.
Islay scotch is really something to work into. It’s usually better to try something with less smoke like Highland park and worm your way towards the smokier stuff. Once you acclimate you can pick out lots of stuff behind the smoke and it’s amazing.
I like a Laphroaig once in a while, but it’s an acquired taste for sure. I made my mum (who loathes whiskey) try some one once, and she complained that it was like drinking kippers.
You guys should really stay away from the Bruichladdich Octomore series, then..
Islays are a mood dependent pour for me. It’s good, but if you aren’t in the mood for it then it isn’t enjoyable. A nice cold night and an Islay is just the right thing to sip on for the evening.
For your first recipe in the house:
“Homemade Gnocchi and Beef Thigh Ragu” from House M.D. S06ep3
Let’s let him have a couple weeks in his house before we subject him to an horrific display of gluttony
@Age Restrictions bro we paid his house so he better make more videos ASAP
@Daniel let him have a break in the house don’t be selfish
I have been waiting for that video for forever
@Age Restrictions Dude, it’s not selfish to want a commercial entertainment provider to maintain a regular schedule.
He’s literally a third of the way to 7 million ALREADY
Congrats on 6 mill, Babish!!! I was watching back when you were still using “Tossed Salad and Scrambled Eggs”. You’ve come a long way and you certainly deserve it. Keep up the awesome work.
Same here. Been a long journey
I didn’t realize he’d stopped using it. It just kinda plays in my head whenever I get ready to watch.
Bum badum bum bum bum badumbadum “Baby I hear the blues are calling, toss salad aaand scrambled eggs” Hey guys welcom back toooo Binging with Babish
*Realtor:* So what are you looking for in a house?
*Babish:* Well, it’s gotta have a big kitchen.
*Realtor:* Anything else?
*Babish:* …Second smaller kitchen.
And a TV in every room playing Frasier and Spider Verse on constant loop.
I think Babish just lives in one giant kitchen.
@Luke Weeks Technically its just regular black pepper. If it was freshly ground beforehand it would just be ground black pepper.
Truly, a match for Markiplier – the man with 4 ovens.
@Luke Weeks A tiny cupboard chock full o’ tiny whisks
Bob Marley shirt says “I’m cool”.
Giant gold watch says “I’m a lawyer”.
You know you’ve got a big ass steak when it can stand on its own unassisted.
When your attorney is wearing a Bob Marley t-shirt you know you’re in for some Fear and Loathing shenanigans.
Your attorney dresses like my school’s resident drug dealer.
crazypoptarts09 I died
He doesn’t dress anything like me
My school’s resident drug dealer did eventually go to law school. Not kidding.
@Ilznidiotic
No I didn’t, whats up with all this misinformation?
“I just bought a HOUSE”. Babish sounds like he hasn’t quite come to terms with it yet.
“I can’t wait to show u the kitchen”
*points at the whole house*
Try making: “Liam’s Loaded Lasagna” from I Am Not Okay With This
“Stroking beef with our fingers”
God, I love the fact I grasp the meaning immediately.
Ron Swanson: How did you cook my steak?
Chef: We pan seared it I vegetable oil
Ron Swanson: In *WHAT* oil?
Only lard/other animal fats!
Moistifier a steak basted in bacon grease doesn’t sound too bad 🤔
Ron: There’s a vegetable oil?
*WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!*
Vegetable oil should be used to finish wood, not food.
Chef Traeger
Babish: “let’s celebrate 6M subscribers.”
Babish: *has 6.34M subscribers as of a few hours ago*
Me: 👀
we’re hitting critical mass!
I would love to see a “Bartending with Babish” series. I’m sure a lot of people would enjoy it.
Babish: Who needs drugs when you got steak
*Drug overdose rates decline by 99%*
Me: “Who is your spirit animal?”
Gordon Ramsay: ” A lion.”
Tom Colicchio: “An eagle.”
Eric Ripert: “A shark.”
Babish: “J. Kenji Lopez….”
Me: Stop.
