- A cooked breakfast in a 39 pound radio.
A little bit worrying.
This is actually, actually horrible.
In Gordon Ramsey voice, "It's raw."
(bright music)
Hey everyone, it's Barry here.
Hope you're well wherever you are in the world.
Today, we're looking at this.
This by Blaupunkt.
Blaupunkt, aren't they the people
that did, like, car stereos
and audio systems and stuff?
The four in one breakfast maker,
which came about literally from this tweet.
(chuckling) The other day, I was like,
"Yeah, it's not gonna go to that shop
and just get it because it excited me."
So thank you Callum for that tweet
And Blaupunkt, I can say specialists in car audio.
It's kind of like JBL doing saucepans,
but Blaupunkt which they actually
had quite a good reputation went bust.
I didn't know this.
They went, like, bankrupt in 2016.
But just before they suddenly got liquidated
towards the end of 2011 apparently,
they became a managed brand name,
and they're solely made in China.
It might as well say Boston, the pug on it
as a brand, it is just probably just badge.
They've sold the name, the logo, the rights
to this Chinese company that are like,
"Yeah, that's cool.
We'll have that."
And I fell for it.
And this thing is 39 pounds.
So it's not super cheap
when you consider other gadgets
I've been getting from ALDI recently.
And on that note, I opened this last night
just to make sure there was nothing crazy I need to get.
The instruction manual.
I know it's just like, "Yeah,
it's an in instructional manual."
The font used on this manual,
all the way through it looks identical
to the ones from ALDI,
all the wording and everything.
But anyhow, I digress.
I digest.
it's called the four in one breakfast maker
because it's got four different separate elements.
So that's our frying pan.
That is a compartment for cooking the eggs.
It all smells so factory,
like one of the most factory smelling things
I've opened in a long, long time.
And this is the main saucepan thing.
So we can warm up beans here.
I guess we could put the lid on
and keep things warm too.
So lots of flexibility there.
And the fourth being, a toaster,
which is just sat on the side.
It doesn't feel like a kitchen appliance.
It just feels
like a massive Screwball Scramble game.
So the Screwball Scramble things are literally
most of it is for the toaster.
So you've got reheating, defrosting, cancelling
and changing the browning of the toast.
This is the dial is on most toasters.
And then of course for this thing
which is gonna get super hot
that is just basically a heating element
which is just on or off.
It does feel like
that it's actually quite good quality.
But 40 quid is quite a lot.
So let's just jump straight into it
and cook some breakfast.
But whilst that warms up,
I do have an opinion on these things.
I mean they are cool and stuff like that
and it says four in one,
but you can't do it all
at the same time, can you?
And effectively one is just toast.
So you can either fry,
you can either boil or simmer at once.
You can't do it all in one go.
So there needs to kind of be a method to this
when we just sort of finish with a toast
at the end which is gonna be the quickest thing.
Oh yeah, we can see this warming up now.
That is angry.
Wow, I do dislike that we can't control
how hot that gets
and it's just literally Katy Perry.
I'm hot, then I'm cold or whatever.
That is it, you know.
But that toaster, I'm quite impressed with that.
Look how quick that like cool down, warms up.
Watch this.
Boom like that.
That's amazing.
Alright, so I've got two sausages on there
which leaves plenty room for some other bits.
I'm just gonna get a bit of spray oil
so we can get that coated as it warms up.
And the thing that I really like is
we can grab our lid.
It can actually sort
of slightly replicate an oven in that way
by keeping that heat in there.
I'm starting to hear sizzling.
Amazing.
That's really weird.
The heat must rotate on this regularly
cause it was going absolutely crazy.
I flipped it over and I've got a nice deep char
on it but now it feels like it's going cold.
It's like giving up.
Now what I'm trying to do on this first one is
try to cook it all in one go.
Cause I don't like the idea
of start stopping, start stopping.
So should be able to get two bits
of bacon on there.
Put the baked beans.
Wow, baked bean tins are getting smaller.
Oh my gosh, they're like nearly a 100 grammes.
They used to always be like 500 grammes.
But here we go.
This is working well.
And my point is I'm gonna use this as a hub
to keep my bacon and some other bits warm.
So we prioritise on the sausages
and then also try a fried egg.
Yeah, the box doesn't actually say
about doing a fried egg.
It's really, really promoting this egg cooker
which we will do.
But I personally have never really enjoyed,
I don't mind a runny boiled egg
but I've never really liked it.
And we wanna trust that on its own
just to see what it's like.
I want a fried egg.
I wanna go old school.
Look at that, though.
It is definitely working.
It's just a little annoying
cause the heat keeps just like just over there.
It keeps going.
Oh my gosh, there we go.
It went.
That...
No, it's gone.
(gasps)
My handle has actually broken.
Oh my gosh.
Look, I can't lift it up.
And of course as that happens,
the heating element warms up, isn't it?
No, it's got a locking system.
Oh my gosh.
I'm gonna have to just use oven gloves.
Dear Patreon, that's gonna win this machine,
I'm sorry.
Yeah, that is really dangerous.
And this is how I've decided to do it.
I'm gonna put the bacon actually in one bit here.
This is gonna be our warming hub
to warm the beans up
with the stuff we've already cooked.
Now I've got some tomatoes and mushrooms.
So far I've gone from loving it
to potentially hating it.
I don't know, this is not good.
If I try and pick this up now, look,
my hand wants to go under that heating element
because we are broke.
I need to put my thumb there somehow.
Just wants to fall forward.
Oh dear.
I've got this sort of tomato residue
of seeds that are gonna actually burn.
I'm gonna try and get as much off as I can.
I'm not really selling it to you, am I?
All right, so bacon, mushroom, tomatoes
and beans are in there.
Let's fry an egg.
(egg sizzles)
And I am now gonna start my toast.
Sausage, egg, toast, beans,
bacon, mushrooms, tomatoes.
Yeah, but what I wanted to do was get this bit up
and onto here so I can warm all this through.
I really should be cooking it this way,
or I just lift this up.
Look, you can see it's sort of like half cooked.
So hopefully with the heating at that end,
it'll do the rest.
Because underneath that,
those beans are getting warmed by the second.
Don't speak too quickly
but I think I might have just been able
to fix the handle.
I'm just really scared to use it too much now.
So we'll warm it for a little bit longer
and serve up breakfast number one.
A cooked breakfast in a 39 pound radio.
That is a massive breakfast.
Oh my gosh.
At the end of the day,
this machine just made that.
That is pretty cool.
The main thing is it is all warmed.
We've got slight blistering on the tomatoes too.
A bit of a bonus.
Softened mushrooms, lightly charred bacon.
But I guess, it's really like the egg.
Yeah.
Oh wow, that's really good.
And we only used, remember a little bit
of spray oil in there at first,
just get it going.
Then by adding things like the bacon just added,
enhance that so it's not super unhealthy
and I really need to stop eating this.
Yeah, that's a pretty cool start, right?
I wanna try and boil the eggs.
So it turns out with the handle folks
what must have happened during cooking,
like you can't push it up to lock it in.
You've got to physically push it in
and then push it back out there
and that will hold it in place.
But during cooking, it went from this
and I must have maybe squeezed it a little bit
and it went like that,
which is a little bit worrying.
But anyhow, this can actually have a rest
for a moment cause it's all about this pan
which I've done my best to clean out.
There's a couple of scorch marks there
and they are actually in line
with where the heating element is.
Look at that.
I like to think of it as like a war sky.
There is a max fill line there
which I assume is for our water,
for boiling eggs.
You can actually get eight in there if you want.
And amazingly, one of my eggs has decided
to topple over.
And now they all are.
Oh my gosh.
Oh no, this is horrible.
This is actually actually horrible.
I filled, it's the max line
and it's making it boiled.
Ah, let's try that again.
Okay, so lid on.
Oh no.
One's just fallen over again.
Oh, is this what's gonna happen?
I'm just gonna end up, keep knocking him over.
I'll put this one down this end.
Ah, no.
So very carefully, put this on.
And there we go.
Right.
Feel really uncomfortable about this.
Woo.
You don't wanna put that lid this side
as if you're doing toast at the same time,
that would get very wet indeed, wouldn't it?
This should be our soft one.
Oh oh.
Oh.
In Gordon Ramsey voice, "It's raw."
Okay, well that's a good start, isn't it?
And that actually was lying down
in more of the water
so actually getting a bit more heat into it.
The next one has just fallen down as well.
This one should be a medium egg.
To be fair, does feel heavier.
Ooh, there we go.
That is a runny egg.
All right cracking.
That has actually worked.
For your safety, do the medium egg at least.
But this does feel nice and heavy.
I'm feeling fairly confident about this.
Ooh, look at that.
Slightly still lighter in colour there
but that's still set.
It is not runny at all.
I think that has jolly well worked.
They all fell over, but yeah, not too bad.
It has worked, I feel.
Why don't I feel awkward saying it?
It has worked, but...
But, yeah.
All right so I wanna try two more things.
This is a breakfast muffin.
I can just sit in there for a minute.
We're gonna try and make a McMuffin.
Come on.
Oh my gosh.
Get in there.
It does not feel safe.
This is a pork patty
and I'm gonna put the lid on it.
We can then keep it warm whilst we cook our eggs.
And I've got a gadget for that.
It's basically these things, which I've had
for a very long time so I could get
like a heart-shaped egg.
I think I'm gonna go classic circle though.
Oh!
No, it's gotta be like flower, hasn't it?
Let's do that.
So I can keep pushing that.
I'm done down to where the heating element is less.
So we've got a bit more control.
Literally, a bit.
My wash mould goes down.
(egg sizzles)
Oh, it's escaping a little bit.
It's escaping loads.
Oh my gosh.
(egg sizzles)
That's okay.
We've got a lot of egg white.
It was a large egg.
Beautiful.
That egg is just about done.
There's quite a lot that has eggscaped.
Thank you.
In the toaster, we're gonna put that down.
Putting the cheese on top of the pork here.
Lid goes down.
So that's just gonna again, act as an oven
to cling and melt that cheese on there.
Ooh, ooh.
Blimey.
It's all very hot and intense at the times.
A cheesy patty and a confused flower shaped egg.
I am so glad that handle is working right now.
Oh wow.
Hey, (chuckles)
this on top.
Remember the egg yolk is firmed in these
but I guess you could do medium runny
if you want.
Hm hmm.
Need sauce, but damn, that's good.
I think that's my favourite thing we've made in it.
I put ketchup in it for Mrs B.
- Mm. - Good?
- Nice.
- Well, thanks so much for watching, folks.
What a great machine.
And actually the lucky Patreon
that gets this one, I'm saying lucky now,
cause I think that has alone justified it,
I'll also send you those as well.
Pretty fun indeed.
I don't really need a Christmas tree egg,
but maybe you do.

Oh, did I mention bonus scene?
Yeah, we're just gonna quickly
do some pancakes, all right?
All right so first up for this one,
we are gonna fry some bacon.
And this can actually go a little cold
but we will push it so it's a bit crispier.
Kind of fell apart a little bit and shrunk.
But that will do.
Clean this out a sec
because although I would like
to have kept a little bit of that bacon grease
on there, we're gonna do some pancakes.
You get the idea.
Yeah, that is the only thing you can't control,
the heat on them that well.
But hey, pancakes are working.
Yeah, you're not quite getting
that heat constantly to like really
get the heat in it and maintain it.
By the time it cooks, it kind of goes cold
and loses all of its momentum.
So I have to make quite a lot of pancakes here.
I remember I went to Albuquerque
where Breaking Bad's filmed
and had a pancake there at like 3:00 AM.
There's this Pancake House nearby.
Little lady that owns the "Breaking Bad" House,
she was really annoyed with the amount
of people that had turned up at her house.
It was quite funny.
I was like, "Why don't you just sell it
if you hate your hit that much?"
But I don't know, she's pretty proud.
There we go.
That's pretty cool.
Mm.
When I do the same mix there in a frying pan,
it's normally fluffier
but I'm not gonna say no to a pancake.
Cheers, folks, maybe get it if you want.
