- Ah, oh my gosh. - It's quite hot, ain't it? (screams) (intro music) (slap) - You know, nothing says Happy Valentine's Day, we're filming this on Valentine's Day, you're probably going to watch it in August or something like that. (laughs) Than making savoury slush puppies. All right, Stu? - I'm all right at the moment, Barry. - Yeah. We're making slush puppies. In today's video, will it slush puppie? A follow up to will it toastie, and will it soda stream. You guys like these videos, so here we are with this slush puppie machine. If you don't know what they are, what are they called in America? - Snow cones? - Yeah. - Snow cones are a bit different, aren't they, I think? - Yeah, the snow cones are normally like the ice and then they put the syrup straight on top. Whereas this mixes it all together. I've done a video reviewing it before, it took me about six hours because the first five hours I had the ratio wrong. The syrup, five parts syrup to one part water, it's the other way round. - Ah. - So we've had some savoury suggestions, and we're going to pick our three favourite, but of course let us know down below what you'd put in yours. And we don't know if this is going to work. - No, we genuinely don't. - No. Overnight this canister has been put in the freezer, which goes in and we've just created, because the first one that we're doing is normally served hot. - Okay. - Some gravy. - Lovely, brilliant. I can't wait. (upbeat music) - [Barry] Yeah, it just needs to cool down a little bit. This gravy is cold. And here it is. So we had to make this first. I can't see why this wouldn't work. - It looks like Coca Cola or something. (laughs) - It does, don't it? What could go wrong? - It certainly smells like gravy though, because that's what it is. - This machine's quite noisy. We're going to get it going, let's slush. Okay, the lid is off. The ice canister, which has got a little hexa gas sort of thing, or whatever it is on the bottom. Right, that goes on, and then we stick this. - There's some rust in there, does that add goodness? - [Barry] Yeah, it does, because I left some salt in it, I think it's corroded. (laughs) - [Stuart] Brilliant. - [Barry] So apparently we turn it to mix first of all. Mix. (mixer) - It's spinning, Barry. - [Barry] It's spinning, and we half fill it with ice, half way up, two caps of salt, and 40 mils of water. Put that in there. (upbeat music) - Straight into the salt hole there? - [Barry] Yeah. Salt goes in. The salt actually helps to melt the ice quicker to get the actual outside, it's really thin metal, working really well to freeze the gravy. So now we add more water, and three more capfuls of salt. - That's a lot of salt. - That is a lot of salt, ain't it? And we're going to top it up with ice as we go but the next step is to add the gravy. So now we add our gravy in, and we just keep it topped up with ice and apparently in 15 minutes we should have a savoury slush puppie. (laughs) - We'll have a something. - Yeah, perfect for your roast dinner. Gravy. - Lovely. It says where you pour it in, "Beverages high in sugar content only". So we don't know how this is going to go. (music) - It smells amazing. - It does. (laughs) - It does smell really good. - So 15 minutes, and we will have, I was going to say the world's first, I bet somebody else has done it, gravy slushie. - Gravy slushie. You can see it's starting to film little ice particles already, because this is quite heavily water based. Forget the sugar, we're not sure, we're genuinely not sure. (claps) We'll see what happens. See you in about 15 minutes. This is basically two minutes in. (mixer) It doesn't like gravy. (laughs) - My theory currently is because the gravy is far more salty than the sugary stuff it's expecting, it's formed too much solid ice around the bottom and it's blocking the spinning. - It's definitely cold though. - Oh yeah, I've had to put a jumper on. (laughs) We're just going to have to see what comes out. - Shall we? - Yeah. - Traditional slush puppie serving, plastic cup. Here we go. Is this just going to be water? Is it going to pour? - Is it? That's a good question. (laughs) - There's no ice in it. - It's still gravy. - No ice whatsoever. No, what have I done? I was trying to see if I could get some ice out. So we've got watery cold gravy with no ice in it. - It's actually quite cold, yeah. It's just like cold gravy. - Great, I've got to try some I suppose. Wonderful. Yeah, freezing cold watery gravy, lovely. - Will it slush puppie? No. - No, it will not, it very much will not. - We'll try another one, we might have to water it down a bit more. This one is just purely paste, so maybe it will help us. Wasabi. - What? (laughs) - [Barry] What are you thinking? - I'm hoping this doesn't slush, so we don't have to drink it. - [Barry] Yeah, that's a good idea, a good point. Is it good? - No, it's horseradish. - [Barry] You might as well get the whole tube in there. Oh, look at that. - [Stuart] Oh, my goodness. - [Barrie] Green worms. That stinks so bad. We were just wondering, does it have to be sugar based like it says on the lid, or is that just like a generic safety thing. "Water freezes at 32 degrees fahrenheit, or "zero degrees celsius. "But when a solute such as sugar is added, "the freezing point changes. "The sugar molecules prevent the water from "making hydrogen bonds, which are required "for solidity. "And the water has to become even colder before it reaches it freezing point". - Oh. - But then I wonder if salt is like that as well. - I don't know, it certainly didn't seem to be that way with the gravy. - Yeah, because the gravy I think just bonded so thick, and it might have just congealed up the motor of something and become heavy. - Shall we just stick some sugar in with the Wasabi? - Yes. (laughs) - That will be lovely. You'll have to burn this spoon afterwards. Oh, it really stinks. - [Barry] It does, look at that. That's going to be like a nice sort of light green, like a lime. - It certainly doesn't smell like lime, Barry. - [Barry] No. (laughs) (mixer) Look at the colour. - It's such a luminous colour. - [Barry] That's amazing. - This is going to be interesting. Is it going to work? Or is it going to block it up like last time? We've got no idea. - [Barrie] I don't know. This one is certainly moving much more freely than the gravy. Yeah, it actually looks like it's enjoying it. - Oh yeah, this one's working I think. - [Barry] Yeah, it's great, yeah. - Really pleased we get to try this, Barry. It's going to be amazing. - The smell is insane, it's so like tangy and strong already. It's got three settings, mix, off, I guess, is that a setting? - Carry on. - And then dispense. Look at that. So dispense is going to be just as loud for you guys. - Yeah. - And it's going to spin it the other way, which is going to force it to the spout where hopefully it will serve delicious wasabi, which stinks, honestly the waft of that. - The stench is astonishing. - Lovely. So let's spin it round the other way. - Okay. - And hopefully, I love this. (mixer) - Ah (laughs) - Yeah. - I think we've (laughs) - Oh my god. It's like you've gone to a Nando's and go to the frozen yoghourt machine and something horrible has happened. - Yeah. If we just decorate it a little bit, I'm sure they do this. We didn't put much mix in this, we've kind of used it all up. But it's Valentine's Day, sharing is caring. (laughs) (slam) Sorry, mate. No, I don't want to taste it. I can smell it. - Yeah. - Why do you think this worked over the gravy? - I'm guessing much lower salt content maybe. - Okay, yeah. More diluted, the paste kind of blended in. It certainly doesn't smell that way. - It does not smell good, Barry. - Yeah, ready? - I'm as ready as I'll ever be. Ugh, I'm going to have a very small amount of this. - Ready? - Uh, oh my gosh. - It's quite hot, ain't it? (screams) - Oh my god. - What have we done, uh. - I forgot how hot this stuff is. Wow, the roof of my mouth and my nose, you've got a bit of a cold today, haven't you, did that help? - Not any more. (laughs) That's absolutely disgusting as well. - The texture is addictive. - What? - The first bite you're like, ah, it's a slush puppie, it's sweet. And then. - It's not sweet at all. It very not sweet, Barry. It's bloody wasabi. - Ah, geez. (screams) That's so hot. - It's made your nose run. - Is that like wasabi, or that just come through my nose. Oh my gosh. (slap) Will it slush puppie? Bloody right it will. - Yes, but it shouldn't. - Yes. Well the last one is interesting. This was requested a lot actually. We did have a lot of sweet suggestions, but slush puppies are sweet anyway, so we thought we'd go savoury again. - Okay. - With something with a little bit of texture. - Which is? - Beans, baked beans. - Oh Barry, this doesn't sound good, mate. (laughs) - Let's find out, because if the beans will fit through the spout, shall we try that? - Yeah, why not? Well I can think of several reasons why not, but we're going to do it anyway. - [Barry] We're going to dilute it with water again obviously because that needs that. There's quite a lot of sugar in beans. - Yeah, these are the no-added sugar. Maybe we should have got the extra added sugar. - [Barry] Oh right, oh god. I thought there was no salt, sugar, okay. - We can add a bit of sugar though, can't we? - [Barry] Yeah. - It's easy enough, ain't it? - Some people have a phobia of baked beans, don't they? - [Barry] Do they? What the texture? - Have you not heard of it? - [Barry] No. - Yeah, I think it's because they have that kind of all pervasive smell, so just kind of, oh. Are we going to whizz these up or not? - [Barry] Yeah, (mumbles), weren't we, because we've got a stick blender around here somewhere where we can whizz these up and make a sort of puree. But I think that might make it thicker. - Yeah, I think it will. - [Barry] And it will fit through the spout. The beans will fit through the delivery port. (laughs) - [Barry] Oh look at this, they're swimming. The beans are actually dancing around. Oh my gosh. I think this is going to work. It's like a beach. Do you think that's got enough power to push them around? - No, I don't think it does. We're going to find out though. - [Barry] Yeah. Look at that. - [Stuart] If this doesn't nauseate the people at home, nothing will. How many do we put in? All of them. (laughs) - [Barry] Oh no. It's okay, it's like a little game. See, they're dropping in. There's a little spout, let's go in. - [Stuart] I can't see this catching on in the arcades, but. (mixer) Ah, the noise I've missed so much. - [Barry] Oh, it's staying in one segment. - Yeah, of course. Hence why you get it spinning before you put the rest in. - [Barry] Shall I put a few in there? - Yeah. - [Barry] It's like a game. - [Stuart] It's Pachinko for a new generation. - [Barry] All right, 15, 20 minutes? - Yeah, let's go for it. - [Barry] It's breaking the beans down, folks. And we think it's getting trapped under the motor. - Yeah, we're having a serious case of bean disintegration. - [Barry] Yeah. Maybe keep going? - It's sounding a bit strange, but it's still going. - [Barry] Yeah, it's just completely jammed, hasn't it? - I'm convinced it's the build up of the ice. - [Barry] Yeah, that's a big old sheet of ice on there. I think you might be right, Stu. It's just building up, isn't it? Look how much it's broken it down. It could have got on the motor, but we're fairly certain now you think it's just the build up from there? - I think it's the build up of the ice, yeah. Those beans are pulverised. - [Barry] There you go, nothing there, no? Look, it's blocked up the actual-- - Oh, it's blocked the spout. - [Barry] Maybe that's, I don't know. I doubt it. My gosh. We're finishing with something quite on brand. A lot of you wanted to see this. Baked beans was a failure. I think it's the more nasty ones that are going to work. I think it's just the way it's going to be. I was looking forward to cold baked beans. - Good for you, Barry, good for you. (laughs) - This is some vinegar. - Specifically cider vinegar. - I don't know how old that is. - Yeah, the bottom of it's gone into-- - It's got like remnants of like a ship in the bottom of it or something. That's like pure dirt. - So we've done a kind of half cider vinegar, half water mix. - Oh my gosh, because it looks a bit like beer or cider, but that's, woo. - It certainly smells of vinegar. - All right, let's get this going as a finale for my road trip home, five hours with vinegar slush puppie potentially. (mixer) That absolutely stinks. Thoughts? - Yeah, I think the freezing point of the vinegar has kind of ruined that one. - I've got a five and a half drive home. Have you got any beer? - Yes. - I'm allowed one. - [Barry] So is this your favourite beer, Stu? - Not specifically, it's just the only one I've got in the house at the moment. - [Barry] That'll do. - It's all right. - [Barry] Technically I can have a teaspoon and drive. - Yeah. Now that actually smells good. - [Barry] Does it? - Unlike everything else we've done today. - [Barry] I've still got the wasabi in my nose. - That's going to be in there for weeks. (mixer) - [Barry] Look at this. If you're over the drinking age for the summer, this could be a heck of a hack. - It's looking good, Barry, it's looking very good. - [Barry] Shall we dispense? - [Stuart] Let's. (mixer) - [Stuart] Oh yes, look at that. (laughs) Spot on. - [Barry] Life is good. (laughs) - At last, we've made something edible with this. - You know, I had high hopes that this would work actually, because I had a cider slushie once before. I've just got this vision now of, back where it was made in this big cider barn, that there was a little lady or little man making it with this. And then having little wasabi ones as well. Exactly. - Just for amusement afterwards. We could have a proper straw in this, but I haven't got any straws so sorry. - Good for the environment. Not like the paper straw because we'd be like that, and be like. - But we are using plastic cups, which I've had in the drawer a long time and we're getting rid of. - Ah (laughs). I'm interested to taste the carbonation actually. - Oh, that's bitter. - That's really, is that just that brand? Is that how that normally tastes? - Yeah, so do you not drink bitter ales generally? - Not really. - No, you're more of a cider man, aren't you? - I'm a cider drinker. It goes down well, it slides down. You could easily get fairly merry on this. - It does taste more bitter than it does normally I think. - Do you think it's enhanced the bitterness? - It's brought the bitterness out. - Well I'm not going to be taking this on my five and a half hour drive home. Conclusion, will it slush puppie? Yes, beer will, cider will, all that sort of stuff. Gravy won't. Wasabi sadly did. - Yes, which I feel is a loss for all of us. (laughs) - Yes, and we diluted that a little bit, to take a bit of edge off that. That was still insane. - Yeah, that was not the nicest experience I've had. It was disgusting and really hot. - Well I am mulling over keeping this, and increasing the selection and variety of slush puppies I can make. But, no, you don't want it? - Too right, I don't. (laughs) - So what we will do, I'm going to sign it right here. - Okay. - And Stu, if you can sign as well. It's going to be a giveaway at my next patron gadget giveaway. THere's nothing with it, it works an absolute charm. Make some home made syrups in it. Don't stick beans in it. - You might want to rinse it under the tap if you do plan to use it. - Yeah. If I give this away and it ends up on Ebay, I'm just going to buy it back again. Right, thanks Stu for putting up with these slushies. - Yeah, thank you for this incredibly unpleasant time, well the bitter was all right, but the rest of it, ah. - I'll be really interested to know what people would actually do it in their slush puppies down below, based on the stuff that didn't work for us. What would you slush puppie? And what should we will it next? We've done the toastie, slush puppie, soda stream. Microwave? - Will it microwave? A big lump of lead. (laughs) It turns out it didn't. - Right, I've got to go back to the West Country. - Nice drive. - Cheers, mate. - Cheers. (rapping music)
