Egg Sandwich? Ribeye Steak? Rubens? Patty Melt? What will it cook?

As it turns out this little dynamo is pretty good for the under $25 price tag.



We actually made the mistake of trying to make Panini sandwiches rather than just using it as a small kitchen grill. The most success we had was cooking a previously frozen ribeye steak. Then we cooked a cube steak and made a patty melt and even cooked some sausage patties.

While the big challenge was to make Rubens, we may have over stacked the sandwich for the size of the Panini press.

Regardless, the grill out performed our expectations and it did burn us a few times.

We did have some complaints about the design, it was definitely not very user friendly and expect at least a couple burns until you get familiar with the set up. But isn't a good meal worth a couple burned fingers?

The grill also folded open to lay flat, but one side was clearly hotter than the other and cooking the top and bottom goes so much faster than just the underside.

By the end of the show we fed the entire crew and had everyone fighting over who was going to get the Ribeye. Of course that went to Fat Chris, or should I say he took it when nobody was looking.

Check out our live show Monday through Friday on YouTube at 6Pm eastern time.

We do product reviews, discuss politics, guns, girls... you know, man stuff for men.

Grab a beer, sit down and enjoy an hour a day drinking and chatting with the guys. We have an open chat and take phone calls from viewers to discuss your questions and topics of interest.

It is always a fun day on The Man Show!


Episode #1We finally did it, we completed one full episode. We beat the critics that said it was impossible for an old dog poop guy and his drunk friend to figure out how to stream a live show on the internet. Our first episode was about "Reviewing of a Zombie Survival Tool Kit". The kits are abundant online from mid $20's to around $50 depending on which tools are packed into the individual kit. We unpacked and tested each item to see how helpful each tool would be in a survival situation with some very nice and some completely useless. The truth is, you could never know what you might need if you run out of gas in the middle of nowhere or fall out of a plane in the Australian outback, but if you do and you have the kit with you, it could help you survive.

The show starts off with some Florida Man stories that make people cringe. But breaking news comes from Glen in California who broadcasts live from the Blizzard in Tahoe. Internet service is spotty, but Glen promises to build a snow family of the addams family for Wednesday's show. Discussion of Trump vs Ron DeSanctimonious and how Little Ronnie took over Disney and put the workers on a bus to relocate them to New York. As they parted, Ron tweeted, take your wokeness back to where you came from! In depth discussion of how Ron the Dictator is destroying education in Florida and how students are walking out in protest. Powerless against the Desantis war machine, Jeff gives up and calls it a win for Mr Dog Poop. The guys discuss Sean Penn and his search for a crisis so e can be front and center. They question where his ...read more



STEM Electric Piano - Assembly and Review Friday's episode of The Man Show Live featured a PLAYZ Piano made for kids. Our overall opinion of the PLAYZ Piano was that it was a bit simple for kids over 5 years old and maybe not dynamic enough for kids to learn about electronics. It was one of the more expensive toys during STEM week at around $35 which could have bought a little more education in other items. The white keys did play, but the black keys were only part of the case and decoration only, so as far as a piano, it missed the mark and is not a good learning tool for music. It can be a fun toy for a 3 year old, but at that age, the chance of them wiring it up is slim. We could not really find any good points about the PLAYZ ...read more



Beer & Donuts - A Cooking and Review of the Express Mini Donut Maker Oh so long ago when we decided to make donuts. Beer and donuts we called it and the premise was to make donuts on our desks while live on the air and drinking a load of beer and whisky. Well, we did just that with a mini donut maker, so pancake and cake mixes and a whole lot of mess! Mr Dog poop takes out a 1950's hand mixer and blends that cake batter into a frenzy as Jeff Macolino just keeps eating the donuts before they are even finished. Neither of these guys should be allowed anywhere near a donut making operation. But nonetheless, they power though an episode getting burned and eating what they called donuts but more resembled a 2 grade cooking project where more batter ends up on the table than ...read more
