YouTubers Successfully Recreate Jollibee At Home [WATCH]
Ah, Jollibee. Looking back, I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad memory at the popular Filipino fast food chain. The problem is my cravings will never outweigh the rising costs of gas. Can’t keep driving out for miles every time the Jollibee hunger strikes. If only I knew how to make it at home.
Popular YouTube cooking channel HellthyJunkFood channeled the essence of Jollibee and recreated three of the chain’s most popular items: Jolly Spaghetti, Jolly Hotdog, and the Chickenjoy.
Because most fast food chains keep their recipes pretty close to the vest, hosts JP and Julia try their best to get as close as they can to the actual dishes based on their experience recreating popular fast food items and the descriptions provided by the Filipino chain.
If you’re itching to try this at home, you can find the recipes here.
Just watching this makes me yearn for a trip to Jollibee, as a statue of the pleasant, comely bumblebee waves me inside the doors, the smell of fried chicken and burgers welcoming me, luring me to the register.
Visually, I think they nailed the execution. The sound of that first crunch is also music to our ears.
Our only disappointment was that they don’t show you how to make Jollibee’s incredibly addicting gravy. Though that’s fair, because if I knew how to make that liquid gold at home, I’d never leave the house.
