- Look at how tall this is!
I'm six foot two, I'm standing on top of the countertop.
(upbeat music)
One of the things that many of you asked for
is a full kitchen tour,
and I don't feel qualified to do that.
So, Leslie, can we give them a tour of your kitchen, today?
- Oh, sure, it's my favorite room of the house, probably.
- Her favorite room.
And, before we give you the full kitchen tour,
I need to first mention the sponsor
of this part of the video,
which is the National Pork Board.
(shaker grinding)
We have a fresh cut of pork chops that we're grilling
right now. (fat bubbling)
This is the first meat we are cooking inside of our kitchen.
There's a lot of misconceptions about pork
and the way that you cook pork,
but pork is a very lean, nutritious meat.
For example, if you get a three ounce cut of pork,
that contains 24 grams of protein.
That's a lot of protein!
If you would like to have flavorful, tender, and safe pork,
there's a few things you need to know
when you're cooking it.
Meat thermometer.
I used to think that with pork,
you wanted to cook it until it's white,
and until there's no juices in it,
but that's actually not the case.
You wanna cook the pork on both sides
until it reaches 145 degrees for the internal temperature.
Then you take it off and you let it sit for three minutes,
and when you cut it,
you know that I like cutting things open,
that's what we do on What's Inside? channel,
but with pork, it shouldn't be super hard to cut open.
It should be nice and tender
and have like a pinkish look on the inside of it.
Pork isn't just a healthy option,
it also has a ton of flavor.
I've got some vegetables here, (plate clanking)
we've got some rice,
and we've got some pork. (deep exhale)
Okay, yum, yum, yum.
(chomping)
Mmmn, actually it's really good.
This is really good, and it's actually darn easy to make.
So, incorporate pork into your healthy, balanced diet.

Thank you to the National Pork Board
for sponsoring this portion of the video,
and now let's get on to the full home tour,
after I eat this.
(upbeat music)
One of the things we really tried to do with this kitchen
is to make sure that it's a big, open, happy area.
This giant living room right here with the couches,
with the TV up there,
just a nice place to lounge and hang out.
And then you have the kitchen just right there,
kind of build into the space.
We're not the type of family
that does like a formal sit-down dinner that often.
It's typically, just like, right here at these benches.
- We've always been in a house
where there's only been four chairs.
- And I feel like even though there were four,
there was always not enough room
for the different chairs that we had,
and the sides of them,
they're like these hard, plastic, white chairs,
and you'd put your finger down,
and if somebody else gets next to you,
it like smashes - Yes.
- your finger in-between them.
The size of this countertop is perfectly aligned
to of having five chairs comfortably in this spot.
During the home showing I thought it was really interesting
because we had people with tape measures,
that were measuring this space right here,
and this space right here,
and measuring our chairs.
I mean, we had 26,000 come through,
and so, a few of them were like,
looking at the exact measurements,
possibly for their house,
and I thought that was interesting.
The other thing that they measured,
was the space in-between right here and right here,
because, I guess, people like liked that space,
that amount of space.
Did you put a lot thought into this, this amount of space,
or did it just kinda happen.
- We wanted a large, like access ways
throughout the entire home.
So our halls are more expansive than like the average,
I'd say.
So, and people love this porcelain as well.
- [Dan] All right, tell us about this top,
because, originally I thought this was marble.
It looks like marble,
but it's not marble, - It does.
- [Dan] it's porcelain.
- The porcelain is much more durable.
Marble is a little bit more tricky to take care of
and maintain.
- Watch this, it is magic.
(water splashing)
I just move my hand, I don't even touch it,
and the water turns on and off.
(water splashing)
That's pretty cool.
Bam. (water splashing)
Bam.
And it even has a timer, so if we do this,
and then we walk away, I don't remember how long it is,
but after a certain amount of time
it will just shut off.
(Leslie gasping) There we go.
She was doubting the
whole time during - I was!
the time lapse she was like, - I was like how long
are we gonna sit here!
- "I gotta go get the kids from school,
"come on!" (laughs) - I do have to get the kids.
- And then this right here
is where we get all of our drinking water.
This is the only faucet in the house that has
this specific drinking water,
but this water right here is purified,
it's just like what you would get from a lot of the brands
that are on the shelves in the grocery store
or when you're on an airplane
and they give you those little bottles of water.
It tastes really good.
One of the more important things about a kitchen
is of course the appliances.
You have a hard time cooking and storing food
if you don't have the right appliances.
So, let's dig into the appliances that we chose.
All of the appliances that we got inside of our kitchen,
our Chef Grade Professional appliances.
- We have this dishwasher that is awesome.
Gets everything super clean.
And we love how we did the cabinetry in front
so it's all hidden and looks really sleek.
And then we actually did a second dishwasher.
When we lived in Kaysville before,
where we did most of our YouTube videos
from the very beginning,
they had two dishwashers
and I thought, "Oh my gosh, that is so extra and excessive."
And then I ended up loving it.
So, we started building this home,
I was like, "We have to have two dishwashers again."
No reason for a dirty sink and dirty dishes ever.
- And then this is the one request that I had.
This where the trash goes. (creaking)
That's right, we got a trash compactor.
I love the trash compactors
because I hate taking the garbage out to the street.
For every seven times that I take the trash out,
normally, in a normal trashcan like in our last house,
this one does one.
Then when you do take it out
it's just like this compact brick of garbage
that goes into your garbage cans.
And then this is a weird shelf
that I didn't really understand.
- This is for baking sheets, like cookie sheets,
and we had extra space,
and the islands were like, "What should we do with this?"
and this was perfect.
- [Dan] We also have a funny-looking one over here, too.
Is that what this is too?
- [Leslie] Yes. It's the same thing.
- During the home tour, a lot of people
were opening these up and they said, "Oh this is the place
"where you put your hand towels after you've used them
"for them to dry." - It could be that.
I'm not positive. (laughs)
- We obviously did not put a lot of thought
- We did! I do, into these two little areas,
- no, I thought it was. - but therefore, something.
One of the more important things to a kitchen.
This is the refrigerator.
This is the freezer.
Here you go.
Oh my.
Look how big that is. (laughs)
And the lighting in here
is this really nice white, clean LED.
And then it just hides away nicely.
To the question that was the most asked about question
during the parade of homes.
- I don't know what it is.
- [Dan] What is the name of the color of the paint
of the cabinets in here? (dramatic music)
- Okay, so,
don't tell me.
- [Dan] I'm not, asking you. - It's something, 50% Gray,
Fifty, what was it,
gray.
- [Dan] I don't think it's in there.
- Where is it?
- [Dan] Those are knives.
- So, Chantilly Lace is the white.
- [Dan] The white is called Chantilly Lace.
- And then the gray is
50% Gray.
Isn't it 50% Gray something, gray what?
- [Dan] I don't know, I'm asking you.
What is it, what kind of color is the paint?
- Hold on.
- People were asking like crazy,
"What's the color of your cabinets?"
We're gonna call one of my friends,
(phone ringing) - [Leslie] All right.
- and he's gonna tell us 'cause he came through the house
and he's building a house and he's gonna do the same.
(phone scraping)
- [Jeff] My buddy. - Hey Jeff.
- [Jeff] What is up?
- I got a question for you.
- [Jeff] Yeah?
- Do you know what the name of
the color of our cabinets is in our house?
- [Jeff] Yes!
Remember I asked your girl like 200 times.
It's called
Agreeable Gray, isn't it? - Agreeable!
- Agreeable Gary. - I couldn't--
- Okay, Jeff, thanks. - Yep.
- We're filming a video and you're on the video,
thank you for that.
- Thanks, Jeff. - (laughs) All right,
that sounds good.
- All right, bye. - [Leslie] Bye.
- Agreeable Gray. - Yes.
- See, that is one of my friends from up north
that is building a house.
Three days after he saw our home in the home show,
he went into a paint store
that is four hours away from where we live right here,
and he went in and said, "I would like to get
"50% Agreeable Gray."
The person said, "That is crazy,
"you're the fifth person today
"to come in asking for that color."
So it is surprising to me
of how many people come through the home
and see things that they like,
and then go home and they want the same samples
and they want the same colors for their house
and that's why they have different home shows.
By the way, Leslie, I really like your zebra shirt today.
(Leslie laughs)
It looks quite nice.
- Thank you. Thank you. - [Dan] So stylish.
Okay, tell me about this.
Why do we have two ovens?
- [Leslie] Well this one can be like smaller things.
You can do a little,
just if you want to do rolls or something,
but you can be cooking something larger in this one
at the same time.
- [Dan] Oh. - So it just gives you
flexibility.
- [Dan] These are the burners that look like stars.
Can you show us the flames? - Sure.
- [Dan] How do the flames look on this bad boy.
(gas clicking) (gas roaring)
- [Leslie] Look at that.
It's like a snowflake.
- [Dan] Or a star.
- [Leslie] Or a star.
- [Dan] A star that's on fire.
And then what about this little area right here?
- So I could, I could probably do my french toast on here,
which I've never done before.
- [Dan] Really. - I haven't used this yet.
- [Dan] Another thing that we like
is the precast stone that we did inside of here.
So it is stone, but it's kind of like a manmade type stone
that's made perfectly for this spot right here,
and we also have that over here by the fireplace,
and we have it by the front door.
These lights up here are incredibly pretty.
They're really high.
The kids think that it looks like a dog cone
that you'd put on your dog after he went
and got spayed or neutered.
One thing that I really like is a lot of the lighting
that we have like right up in here,
we have a nice track lighting
that just lights things up in the different areas.
We've got one right here, we have one on that side,
and we also have light under there.
It is great to have super high ceilings,
and it feels nice and open,
but I'm six feet tall and I can only reach up to right here.
We have these other cabinets up there that
you can't even get into.
I mean, really, the only way to get into it,
this is the only way
- [Leslie] Be careful. - [Dan] to get up here,
and open this.
- [Leslie] Is there anything up there?
- There's nothing in here, (doors thudding)
and even from here,
I can't really even reach the top up there.
Look how tall this is!
I'm six foot two, I'm standing on top of the countertop.
- I'm five foot four on a good day,
and I can't do very much here,
but we've decided to put like our bowls and everything
go in drawers instead of in actual cupboards.
So that works great.
- [Dan] And another thing that we like
is that we actually put some organizers
inside of these. (harp strumming)
So you can look inside of these drawers.
- It's amazing.
This is so much better because everything just
has its own place and it's separated and everything.
- One of the things that was definitely an afterthought
in this home.
At least I didn't think about,
I don't think Leslie thought about,
'cause I don't think it would have ended up this way,
is the microwave is right here,
which is super low on the ground.
It has a button on it that you push it,
that doesn't work that well,
I will say. - [Leslie] Yes it does.
- Like it's, like look at that.
- No, no, you're not pushing it right.
Stop, stop, stop.
(drawer sliding) - See, I know,
but I barely pushed on it
and it doesn't open. - You just have to push it.
- But if you push it light, it doesn't really go.
You got to push it a little bit harder to get it to go.
- And actually, you don't even have to, look,
and just do that, you don't have to push the close button.
- [Dan] Okay, and then here is the dining room.
Tell us about this dining room here table,
because we kind of have a matching zebra table.
- Oh, I didn't realize, but yes.
So I ordered this table
and it ended up being black and white.
I thought it was gonna be all black
and I saw it and I was like, "Oh my gosh,
"I cannot believe we ordered this,"
and Susan thought the same thing.
And now it's completely grown on me,
and it's like a piece of art, so I love it.
And the base is gorgeous.
- We went on Safari,
and after we went on Safari,
all Leslie can think about a zebras.
- I do like zebras, but-- (Dan laughs)
- Instead of just having a fully round table,
I do like the shape of this.
- I was super nervous about doing an oval,
'cause I was like, "Nobody does ovals.
"How is this really gonna look."
So we actually went and measured it all out.
Put the chairs on it 'cause I was like,
"I don't want it to look cheesy or off,"
but I absolutely love it.
- [Dan] It's nice because you're sitting
directly across from somebody - Yes. Yeah, yeah.
- [Dan] in a way like a normal table,
but it's still as big.
I mean, obviously, if we're gonna eat here
we wanna get rid of this bouquet of flowers.
- It's so beautiful though.
Like these, when I walk in,
make me smile every single time.
- [Dan] How often you have to water these?
- Never. - [Dan] Never,
these are some fake flowers. - But they look so real!
- [Dan] They do look real. - They really do.
And so, this room, whenever I walk past,
it just like, makes me have a smile.
(Dan laughs)
Even in the middle of the night, like at nighttime,
I walked past it last night,
and I was just like, oh.
- [Dan] What's up here? I don't even know.
- [Leslie] I don't, nothing.
- More spaces for giants. (bouncy music)
That's like long-term storage,
like maybe some food storage,
to go up there.
We do have a pantry,
that is just across the hall from that bar.
Automatic light in here when you walk in.
A couple things that I love,
I've told you guys that we're keeping it a secret,
what we had, from the kids.
It didn't work out so well for a few reasons,
but I mean it did work out
because this is amazing,
but,
(ice scraping)
check this out,
we have
pebble ice.
Like these little balls of ice,
and so, yeah, check it out.
(ice scraping)
That's where we get our ice.
I like to take my What's Inside?,
water bottle thing,
we do have some merch if you wanna buy.
Open the link in the description.
It's just the water bottle,
but I put this ice inside of it,
fill it up with water,
and it stays cold the whole day,
even when we go golfing, it stays cold inside of there.
We'll store some food in here.
We still need to like,
fill it up with stuff.
We're still moving in.
We actually live here.
Don't know if I've said that on camera yet,
but we live here.
Behind the scenes there's still a lot of boxes
that need to be unboxed.
Out of 10, how would you rate the kitchen that you designed.
- It's like, off the charts.
Everything is better than I anticipated even be.
- [Dan] Out of 10. - 10.
- [Dan] Okay, oh 10. - For sure.
- [Dan] 10 out of 10. - Well, if I could do 11,
I'd do 11. - Ooh, okay.
All right, I am going to give it a nine and a half.
- [Leslie] What? Why?
- 'Cause the can't put the button on the microwave.
- [Leslie] Oh my gosh, uh-uh.
- I wanna to be able to push the button. (laughs)
I do like this kitchen a lot.
Whether it's negative or positive feedback,
I really enjoy reading all the comments
and reading about some of the ideas of things
that maybe we should have done
or could have done better,
and what's your ranking?
Let us know.
(thoughtful music)
Star that's on fire, (gas roaring)
flying through the universe.
Leslie left me.
- [Leslie] No, I'm here.
- She's, oh, she's here, good.
She didn't leave me guys.
Don't worry, I was worried for a second.
Look how perfect this is - That's what--
- [Dan] for hanging stuff.
- No I mean, but if you
put a sponge on the bottom. - Oh, yeah.
I have pretty good eyes
but I can't tell which button (Leslie laughs)
is to open and close from here,
and I think that's ridiculous.
- I can't believe how much it bothers you.
I had no idea. - [Dan] Oh it's the worst.
(hand slapping)
(water splashing)
(clapping)
- [Leslie] You're so cute.
(mic crinkling)
