New improved sausage roll zapping.

Needs supplementing with the aroma machine :)

Definitely an improved version, it was a good resistor.

It's pretty interesting that sausage rolls have built in self regulating heating elements. Although I am concerned now that you no longer have any forks.

Elliott Krimchansky

Well then you would just have dirt in your mouth.

Alex Taylor

Fricking awesome. This is definitely a way of making someone pay attention while cooking.

Alex Taylor

I reckon something like a fully "crust" encased Brie or Camembert would be really good, its natural soft meltiness would contribute to continued good electrical contact, while pressure builds inside its casing

Forkin' Hell! Well this worked way better than I anticipated. This is the way forward!

I completely agree with you on that. I put some CAT5 wiring in a factory where they make these for the supermarkets, Co-op included.... and believe me, once you know what's in them, you wouldn't eat them again!

No need. They will definitely be making more appearances.

Big Clive

Should have gold-plated the forks first.

Ian Cooper

I would send you cash to have the forks of death make another appearance!

Michael Thompson

A pork pie is viable.

Big Clive

I remember seeing one of those in some old detective movie. He had the two forks hanging from his gooseneck lamp at his office desk with a clicky switch for safety as well as a bun to remove it. Problem is I can't remember what movie or show it was, maybe Colombo??

Aaron Nadler

wonder if the eggs would come out boiled, poached or fried.

I wonder how long it would take to cook a chiken (oven ready)

Other regional specialities welcome. A Melton Mowbray pork pie. A Cornish pasty. I might be able to obtain a Bedfordshire clanger.

Can't some left-pondian contribute one of their unique snacks, such as a Twinkie ? Or perhaps a Tunnocks cake would be more appropriate.

adrian

Love the heat shrink on the solder joints, not too much added safety ;)

I think they may be zinc.

Big Clive

Sadly, those were my last two forks. I literally have no forks now.

Big Clive

in the words of the great Mr Ashens: A "most excellent" Fork-o-cution

GL_1_Code1_1A

Yes. For extra nutritional value.

Big Clive

The mind boggles to think what Vlad the Impaler has in mind for his next culinary victim. I'm assuming this poor innocent roll of the sausage (just like its Co-op predecessor that succumb to the jaws of death a few days ago) was filmed on or prior to, the use-by date of the 22nd? ...or do things like that not bother hardy folk like yourself?

Phil in the kitchen

starts eyeballing corn holders sitting in the drawer.....hmmmmmm+

Anita Davis

Did you solder the leads to the forks (with some juicy lead based solder)?

MarcT

Every Greggs should have one.

Walmart of course. I must find these

Michael Thompson

How else do you think he stained his hat?

Michael Thompson

This is excellent. I shall certainly be making 3 sets of those for my children to save me the trouble of cooking their food. Of course I shall use double-insulated wire to comply with regulations and reduce the chance of their getting a shock.

I think it might be zinc.

Big Clive

What are the Presto prongs made from ?

adrian

Why no thermal camera ?

adrian

No, Mr Bond. I expect you to die.

adrian

How about if you earth a spoon and stick it in your mouth?

Ian Cooper

Forks! Perfect. Love it!

Again not a Chinese One.... powerfactor is unity 😂

Mike Weijmans

Polite people say please pass me the Knife and Fork rather than Pass me the fork N knife.

John Harrison

Better put a warning on it incase ralph wants a sausage roll after a few too many.

Oh yes, i was intrigued by this when i watched the live stream yesterday.

You aint right in the heed.

Whippet Gas

Delightful!

Michael Thompson

Maybe something moist and fatty like a salami would be zappable?

mj

you need to get your van off of Ralphy and will we see a BC-AC DC burger van on the Isle of Man?

The forks didn't look too bad. I doubt the trace bit chromium would be any worse for you than the sausage itself.

Derek Smith

I was thinking to myself eeyuch... when i remembered I have a 5 day old spag bog waiting for me along with many iterations of some cheeses found in the fridge. My only consolation is the new olives and tomatoes I bought today to sterilise my foods until my new Ozone generators arrive from the PRC- hopefully without bloody VAT this time!! grrr

Mike Hughes

I wonder what metal the Hot Dogger uses in its electrodes.

Seán Byrne

I love it! Reminds me of a joke: A Zen Buddhist walks up to a hot dog vendor and says, "make me one with everything"

Michael Thompson

Well, that was interesting, but not as informative as hoped–are my expectations unreasonable; I dearly hope not! 1) How does the taste compare to the "Presto-ed" sausage roll; 2) How does the taste compare to those enjoyed in your previous experience/youth; 3) How even was the cooking; 4) What amount of chromium was deposited, and how many sausage rolls "cooked" in this manner would it take to turn someone into a chrome car bumper? I sure hope FOD will become a regular feature (although I think I'll hafta go to Wal*Mart to get sausage rolls locally)

Having "COD" on your business card...could be worse :) Like "chef of death"...

Peter Stimpel

Just needs some RGB. 😉

Foot pedal or dead man switch please, watching that got my blood pressure up from the percieved danger through my screen!

The Tinkering Shed

Luv it

tbh, it would be disappointing if you did not try and eat it. comparing the results with the "overhead" an (microwave) oven takes to archive the same results, i need to get a more usable appliance to replace them for such tasks. recommendations welcome!

Had to watch this before YouTube safety nannies got it pulled down.

Davin Desborough

Just the way we like it. :-)

Davin Desborough

Making me hungry!

AESFTW

If you put momentary switches on both the wires it would be safer. And I think it needs some LED lights. Maybe neons.

Mark Trombley

I'd like to see those connected to a watermelon. Would that be a dead short?

Witold Witkowski

Perhaps control the forks of doom via foot pedal for express dining situations with mini sausage rolls.

Adam B

Forking hell that's food torture lol

I can't wait to see these for sale in Lakeland.... 😁

"Forks of Death" a new tool for torturing conductive foods. Quite a chamber of horrors your building up. Perhaps you might think of a new career - soon be known as Clive "the chef of death"

That looks very irresponsible... Nice!
