So, when life gives you lemons, make a burger? Bob Belcher would be proud.

[@KnuckleBigFoot]

Bob would probably call it. Don’t get us tarted burger.

[@ashleyramos6267]

HAHAHAHAA noice!

[@MrKodachii]

@@KnuckleBigFoot ok... no lie you nailed that one.

[@lewisnnadz917]

The "Lem me love you" burger, (comes with candied meyer lemon slices and sour citrus chutney) $7.95

[@Bmanritchie]

@@KnuckleBigFootncensored version: let’s get re-tarted burger, lol

[@CHEFPKR]

Interesting take! When I made my sauce for this burger I used Moroccan style preserved lemons and used that to make an emulsion. It added a lot of texture/flavor/sour.

[@darthkrevan710]

That was a cool video, I still want to get your book Antibites to make so many things. I found your page do to Shokugeki no Soma and saved them lol. I think I posted the link to the video on a comment somewhere.

[@intothepale3551]

smooth self promo. i think your idea fits the vibe a lot closer, the whole point of the burger is to be sour after all!

[@conradaster3764]

i lol i love the shade! subbed!

[@haldon12]

Delightful! I was honestly expecting some kind of lemon pickle. I didn't expect plain sliced lemons to make it to the final burger. Tangy lemony sumac in the burger patty to complement the salt and pepper could be fun too. As a sour fan, and with an empty house this weekend, I think I'll give this recipe a try and see how it turns out!

[@JaxHolder1]

The sumac would be great with a lamb burger and goes well with the preserved lemon in the dish

[@quillnsofa8051]

I think there was a missed opportunity to do a sourdough bun.

[@JaxHolder1]

With lemon extract 😂

[@TheSonicFairy]

Badum-tss.

[@NetScourge]

sourdough isnt actually sour after you bake it though

[@Toastybees]

@@NetScourge You're getting bad sourdough then. You should be able to taste a bit of the tang from fermentation, that's the sour.

[@PolishBigfootCircle11]

This is what I love about the Babish Culinary Universe. It takes weird food, and turns into something palatable. I would have never thought to lemon on a burger, but now, I want to try this recipe.

[@ConstantlyDamaged]

Another way to get that lemony flavor in there would be to marinade the meat in it. Let it tenderize the shortribs before the parfreeze step.

[@joshp8535]

Just FYI, marinade is a noun, and marinate is a verb. You marinate in a marinade.

[@vantablack6288]

@@joshp8535 i will marinate you in a marinade how about that

[@joshp8535]

@@vantablack6288 sounds kinda nice.

[@Panama_Red]

Acids break down meats and can make them mealy. Ground beef would probably end up with a weird texture.

[@JaxHolder1]

The lemon juice would break down the protein but you could add preserved lemons which have a sweet salty sour fermented flavor but do not leave it a long time to marinate... That might work. Adding preserved lemon with lemon juice to the aioli would be nice too although I know he did a relish. The lemon oil on the bun was super interesting. ☺️

[@theonlyenicfanever5346]

You saw a yellow sauce in the LEMON BURGER… And assumed it was mustard mayo?

[@CloudianMH]

Yeah, weird.

[@sparkieT88]

Yeah definitely should of had lemon mixed in the mayo somehow

[@uli11]

​​@@sparkieT88.. mayo is a lemon egg yolk and oil based sauce...

[@uli11]

100% the sauce looks like hollendaise sauce and seems like that would be more appropriate.

[@sparkieT88]

@uli11 doesn't have to be, could be vinegar. I meant more like the second sauce he made, where the lemon became a feature, the lemon aioli should have been on the first burger, and something more should have been on second

[@OMH412]

Y'all are sleeping on common yellow wood sorrel as a garnish/topping for this one. It's pretty (clover-like leaves) and tastes like a sour warhead in the best way! 😂

[@McNasty43]

For the lemon relish, I think xanthan gum would work better than cornstarch. Once the mixture cools, the cornstarch loses it's thickening power. Xanthan gum works better for cooler operations. Also, some lemon zest in the buns would've been delightful.

[@zer0luv]

Alvin's face at the top while he's eating that lemon topped burger is just delightfully funny, I'm sorry you had to eat that but it did make for a great laugh

[@nightshadeamberbar1669]

I think the yellow-y sauce was a lemon curd for that true lemon essence and to add a slight sweetnes

[@nosuperwoman79]

Kendall coming in with the lemon relish idea was masterful. 💪

[@Megpie8]

Kendall really is the unsung hero of this channel, let’s be real. I hope she’s got a stake in the company bc she deserves it!

[@jonesjermaine4387]

Yes hopefully or at least they pound her snizz

[@ramidia2839]

Pickled lemon slices would have been an awesome addition as well.

[@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley]

2:00 That moment when Alvin realized he'd made a grave mistake 😅

[@blaquenoise]

By watching boruto.

[@BrainMax_]

The Perfect Fish Taco from Hailey's On It episode, "Beta'd and Hooked"

[@ozeppeo]

Try that with a sicilian cedro lemon (soaked in olive oil and salt) instead of normal lemons

[@foxwhistle]

I've been waiting for this to be made ever since the episode aired. I know Boruto gets alot of criticism but it's one of my favorite anime and I hope it gets more love as it nears its end.

[@jonesjermaine4387]

Boruto is for lame femboys, go watch some Konosuba

[@lunatpr5594]

I'd love to see Moxxie's coffee order from Helluva Boss be recreated!

[@oilybat3269]

Coach’s order from L4D2 would be perfect. (Barbecue bacon burger, large order of French fries, an orange soda with no ice, slide of apple pie)

[@DeLorean58]

Yeah, I agree with others, should have pickled the lemons too. I also would have used some lemon pepper seasoning in or on the burger.

[@kynelius]

Shocked that the assumption of the "Super Sour Lemon Burger" sauce mayo+mustard instead of a lemon curd.

[@Vernal_the_Oryx]

Would have pickled the lemon slices, mostly because i like pickles in a burger, they would have maybe been too sour for most but if I end up trying it, I'll post my findings.

[@Liforce]

This is what I'm here for: completely ridiculous foodstuffs from media that no sane person is meant to create.

[@sebastianthurow605]

I recently had pizza with sliced lemons with peel on it and it was also really tasty. They were baked though

[@Whitedragoness13]

I love lemons and this looks amazing. I'm gonna try this but I'm gonna slow roast some of my lemon slices so the skin becomes softer then make 2 burgers and try it each way.

[@ammie886]

"Oh hey, fire. I like that, it's cool" 😂 not something you want hear from the kitchen. He's like the this is fine dog. 🤭

[@mix-n-match834]

Combination of meat and sour taste makes me think of all the oldschool, heavy marinated meat dishes like german sauerbraten... It's definitively unusual combination but one that has some logic and historical support.

[@TheSonicFairy]

I, too, love the sourness of citrus. Its complexity invigorates me.

[@ricardocaetano9602]

Would love to see an episode on Campfire Cooking from another world ❤

[@tktyga77]

Maybe a little yogurt like labneh for a sauce base along with other colorfully sour fixings found in Southwest Asian (known to many as Middle Eastern) foodways to complement such a burger, even if used in a side dish?

[@worstenbroodje6832]

I was hoping for some kind of lemon curd for the "sauce".

[@fortello7219]

Always love the Kendal touch

[@blankcheck2276]

[@sabbathjackal]

What hate?

[@blankcheck2276]

@@sabbathjackal there’s a lot of comments that bash him just for not being Andrew and how everybody wants Andrew

[@Your-Least-Favorite-Stranger]

@@blankcheck2276 I understand people liking a channel specifically to watch the youtuber who started it, but Babish branched out long ago and Alvin is a channel staple at this point. It's no longer a Just Babish channel, so the vitriol is misplaced

[@padamvats3666]

I really thought it would be yuzu instead of lemons

[@UnveiledShadows]

I knew preserved lemons were coming

[@toganium4175]

I’d love if you made a video on the DC Comics Superhero Green Arrow’s chili recipe.

[@MelissiaBlackheart]

5:00 This is not an aioli, this is a mayo. An aioli has no eggs; it is an emulsification of garlic, salt, and oil, plus other flavorings if you want to make it fancy (in this case, you could add lemon juice for example to make a lemon aioli). What you made isn't an aioli but a garlic mayo. Still tasty, but not an aioli.

[@melfel3931]

Please do the great north!!! They have so many things that could be made like Wolf’s wolfies or any of Ham’s cakes!

[@jonathangarlinghouse]

I love the glow up version. I will make that burger. Is there a culinary opinion on using some lemon pepper on the patty?

[@kimikittiekat]

I was expecting pickled/persevered lemon on the final burger

[@MSGSlayer1]

Throw in a tomato and you get a Super Fruit Salad Burger.

I don't know why I never thought about using my food processor as a meat grinder but those kinds of tips are why I watch this channel! (Okay and a bunch of other reasons but you get the idea).

[@TheDragonaf1]

Wouldnt it have made more sense to put lemon juice or zest in the dough or patty?

[@davidashcroftxo]

Would it be possible to make pickles by pickling some cucumbers in lemon juice?

[@BioYuGi]

It's weird, I definitely preferred the arcs in Naruto where they were embroiled in conflict, but with Boruto it's the opposite and the low-key episodes are more entertaining to me than any of the ones dealing with main plot.

[@CassCat69]

i like the slice of life episodes more than the otsutsuki stuff. i wish they wrote the main plot more around how the next gen kids grew up at a time of peace and how fast their technology has advanced, i find that a lot more interesting

I have another idea for a ramen The "medium-hot pork double with extra vegetables and garlic oil" from the first episode of Ms. Koizumi Loves Ramen Noodles, mostly because it's described as "a mountain of meat and sprouts" and that they couldn't even see the noodles

[@earthknight60]

Probably would be better with Meyer's lemons. The rind of those tastes much better.

[@joyl7842]

Jeez, the size of those patties is nuts. You could make five burgers out of that.

[@AnCoolUsername]

I wonder how many people who follow burger recipes on KZbin actually make their own buns, cause I'm never going to. It's always most of the video too.

[@lord0jackostar]

I like making bread, and rolls are more achievable if you can’t finish an entire loaf yourself. When I have the time to commit, I usually do make a bread thing to go with whatever meal I’m making.
