00:00Toddlers don't weigh this much. It is very heavy.
00:02Today we're making barbecue sandwiches, but with a twist.
00:05Jackfruit.
00:05They grow all over Southeast Asia.
00:08And you can get them in your local Asian market.
00:10Alright, that was a lot of fun, but we're not about to ask you to have to butcher a whole jackfruit in your house.
00:14So the grocery store sells jackfruit already broken down in a can,
00:18and you want to buy it in brine or water for this application, because we're doing a savory dish.
00:23It kind of tastes like artichoke hearts to me.
00:26So now we have to shred the jackfruit.
00:28There's the stringy part on the outside that easily comes apart.
00:32The seed parts or any of the solid core, we're gonna chop those up until they're the same consistency.
00:38We're gonna season with salt, pepper, and oil.
00:41We are going to finish it with some barbecue flavors,
00:45but because this is gonna be here for about 25 minutes, it would burn if you added it too early.
00:49Recipe says to drizzle the barbecue sauce on each sandwich, but I kind of want to pour some in.
00:53Do you think that's okay?
00:54Yeah.
00:55You know, I like to break the rules, so.
00:56It's to taste anyways.
00:57Well, I mean, it looks like barbecue.
00:59There's our one sandwich, but now you need a sandwich.
01:01I also want to make one for someone else.
01:03So our special guest today is one of our favorite people on staff, Nella McGaw.
01:07And you've tried jackfruit before, right?
01:08Yes.
01:10It never got to this beautiful stage.
01:14Is this what it's supposed to taste like?
01:16It's tangy because of the barbecue sauce, good texture.
01:19The spices really kind of get it there.
01:21Okay, I'm gonna have to get the recipe from y'all.
01:23Okay, we got it.
