I’ve seen this video like 20 times and I still can’t get over how perfectly toasted those buns are

[@FroopieLoopies]

Thats the BEST looking burger I've ver seen

[@boibleu22]

It taste as good as it looks.

[@moosedogg]

@DeliciousBob That just means you're used to eating fast food burgers.

[@BentLeey]

It really is sexy!

[@David_Watts]

You took the words right out of my mouth..🤪😉

[@gunayorbay]

I find myself watching this over and over again.

[@BentLeey]

We're with you on that!

[@massn1990]

"... and then we gonna give them a light season" *drains the fucking ocean"

[@flixivitus216]

Pong Lenis I wander how much salt is in 'heavy seasoning'

[@ramiel01]

It looks like a lot, yes. It was probably flaked salt, which is much fluffier than salt grains, which means that chef only put on a moderate amount.

[@GrandMaMaYT]

its a different salt boy

[@wanboyka1818]

hahahahahahaaa damnnnn

[@zodiacza1]

Flaked sea salt is less salty than kosher salt by about 20%. And kosher salt is 50% less salty than those cheap table salt.

[@megrimlockisking]

i've seen great burgers made, made some great burgers but man this is still the one to truly admire

[@11tokajj]

I scoured youtube to find this video again, it should go in the hall of fame

[@Sox214]

That's what other burgers strive to be. Right on!

[@NeuroHead]

I love that she added so many pickles on there . I do that too .

[@BentLeey]

Pickles aren't optional!

[@11219tt]

BentLeeyEats 100%! It cuts the fattiness of the beef.

[@markchristopher4165]

She's so great. Pure enjoyment of cooking

[@mrgibson]

so that is how the Bic Mac should look like

[@sundarpichai940]

Sort of. I mean, that's a $20 burger.

[@spinLOL533]

Michael I can shit a better burger just by consuming the ingredients

[@daoyang223]

This is what burgers look like at Culvers.

[@mrp4242]

The new Big Mac, now without lettuce

[@BentLeey]

We're so sad Mind of a Chef is no longer on Netflix!

[@zy7783]

o my god

[@dasalekhya]

My eyes teared up (with joy) during this video !!

[@boibleu22]

I have had this burger, and it is everything you would imagine. It's is amazing.

[@kylemwalker]

I think the thin patty is underrated. As long as you use at least 2 patties. You can stack more cheese or bacon strips, sauce, toppings, etc with them and they're extra crispy and seasoned well.

[@AsfandAli]

Doesn't get better than that. Beefy, juicy and wholesome. Thank you

[@kormsd]

Ive seen a lot of burgers get mate on youtube, but this one...this one is special

[@peterdoe2617]

WOW! This is it! Just from looking at it: this is it!

[@theblobfish9614]

That is a beautiful bun, beautiful toast on it, beautiful patties with a beautiful sear, beautiful cheese and sauce, everything about this is just so pure and clean i love it and i wouldve loved to eat it.

[@Blackening]

Been to Salvation Burger earlier this year, great establishment and not that expensive(for Manhattan, anyway).. But if you go, I highly recommend the spicy kirby. Best pickle you'll ever taste.

[@Rizalreez]

That is one juicy burger.. Love it.. With all that pickle..

[@heidiscott4363]

Farmer s cheez

[@Fitnessgirl27]

I've had one of these and I have to say this is no mere sandwich of grilled meat and toasted bread, this is God speaking to us through food.

[@David_Watts]

Watching this burger being made was extremely satisfying; and that first bite felt like I was there! AMAZING..less is more. I want s'more!!

[@jennifercarr7351]

I've got covid I want to eat nothing but I can't quit watching her videos

[@blogginsriverbymnl48isabop86]

Something this simple, yet perfectly cooked, is often more satisfying than a gimmicky Michelin star dish.

[@brandonwilcox7411]

Was anybody else impressed by how evenly those buns were toasted???

[@kenanvanvranken7817]

I pray nightly to this video

[@n00bc4k3z]

this looks absolutely delicious. i like those crispy edges of the beef patty

[@heidiscott4363]

Nnnuh where are today

[@hrb_grazy4369]

Madness of perfection, Love it!

[@dwaynewladyka577]

I could really dig into that burger. Looks awesome!

[@Sox214]

Who would dislike this?

[@HappyFluegel]

+Tomas O. haters and maybe vegans?

[@johnbonds2003]

Damn that looks tasty. Definitely one of the better burger compositions I've seen in a while.

[@Centrioless]

The bun is the main thing that makes this burger looks special

[@vics128]

Damn I’ve seen a lot of videos claiming the perfect burger, but this one looks fantastic.

[@exile9024]

this burger looks awesome i want one.

[@Will_JJHP]

Thin patties all day. High maillard-to-meat ratio = deliciousness.

[@vikingrfamily]

That's why she should smash them instead of making the patties beforehand, other than that pretty tasty looking burger.

[@alksjda]

when she took that bite and all that juices flowed out. DAMN!

[@jcdcsc]

I'd love to eat here. Using a tortilla press to get those thin patties is great. I'll have to give that a try.

[@kushyog7677]

Oh my I think I’m in love

[@markallen6591]

Damn that looks so amazing! And it was so juicy you can see the juices dripping as she took the first bite. And the patties are pretty thin which is interesting, because most burgers are pre pressed into a mold of some sort and set off aside waiting in a walk in cooler or something to be cooked. And it looks pretty fresh, which is nice too. I want to go there!!! 😄😋🍔😳👍🏻😱

[@Anonymous-pm7jf]

That burger looks soooo good!

[@xhmcsx]

April kicks ass

[@StagnantMizu]

For anyomw wondering the specialsaice is iceberg sald mixed with real mayonaise 3tbsp little french mosterd 1tbap kerchup and a little brandy and bbq sauce very little

[@TheStallion234]

I've never seen a smashed burger pre-smashed. I like the idea!

[@sundarpichai940]

+TheStallion234 I use a rolling pin and then a 6" round pastry cutter to make my patties. I started doing it when I had my daughters because they liked burgers, but their 2-year-old teeth could only cut through the thinnest of patties.

[@TheStallion234]

+Michael Yeah, smashed burgers are great, I'm just used to seeing them smashed as soon as they hit the skillet, not before they go down. Good idea!

[@Silentknight052]

had this yesterday the burger looks perfect the taste was ok missing that burst of flavor you expect looking at this the salvation burger their man attraction was excellent fries were some of the best I ever had

[@beerndumplings]

hope they re-open soon!

[@acressss]

She's amazing as always

[@HeadbangersKitchen]

God damn that looks good!! :)

[@esbenrose]

YES....and also the burger!!!

[@tonydetuna1923]

Beef fat !!!!! YES! YES! YES! If the French fries are cooked in beef fat run to this restaurant! !!! Old Time flavor!!!!

[@BigLove101]

out standing!

[@ZamatoElite]

Wow fantastic

[@johnmorone4588]

Mouth watering right now!!!!!

[@truthseeker1181]

Looks amazing!

[@anarchodandyist]

That is a bloody good burger

[@Anonymous-nj2ow]

seeing the juice run out then april's mmm at the end.... :O~~~

[@ksr2059]

There is truly a God in heaven...I need this burger in my life. Now where can I get some tallow?

[@firstbiteburgers1021]

She has got the right idea!!😆👍🏼🍔🤤

[@MarvinsRoom_]

mouth is watering lol

[@EdwardGador]

Just watching those juices ooze out of that burger... OMG.

[@brandonnickerson8934]

The squirt at the end. lol

[@yodieindrawan5193]

Holly molly, that burger drip

[@Gourmet_Goon80]

I would fucking destroy that burger. Hoping to make it to NYC in the near future.

[@HappyFluegel]

+Andrew Tozier Same! i want to taste all of her Burgers

[@lechefjuliano]

BRAVO!

[@gezuskrist]

horsradish special sauce would be nice with that, although that could be the sauce she put in but who knows.

[@caminhantesolitario]

nice ladie! subscribing

[@schwaggbagYES]

cool looks delicious!

[@panzer2902]

We need a recipe of "secret sauce"! Now.

[@GtaRockt]

Then it wouldn't be secret sauce anymore, just sauce

[@XdarkmutantX1]

Ketchup, Mustard, and Mayo huehuehue.

[@panzer2902]

XdarkmutantX sure?

[@cain7925]

@@panzer2902 That's the base ingredients. You can add other ingredients for your liking.

[@rmdomainer9042]

Haven't got sound on. What is the weight of those burger patties per piece?

[@christyjordan8768]

Good on ye.

[@noodlegrannybill]

yes wow. yes.

[@joep2590]

when she bit into that burger and the juices ran at the bottom, my juices ran at the bottom

[@LittlebigG]

God that looks so good :(

[@MooseMeus]

holy moses.

[@raulsuhett]

She's adorable!

[@EaglesXsandOs]

Just by looking at the special sauce: My best guess is Dijon Mustard, Homemade Mayonnaise, Sweet Pickle Relish, Ketchup, Garlic Powder, Paprika. Welcome :)

[@roamingthereal4060]

Homemade Mayo, Minced Onion, and Paprika. It's a modified in-and-out burger sauce. Not mcdonalds. Definitely no ketchup or relish in that, and I would almost guarantee no mustard or garlic powder.

[@fg87fgd]

If Alain Ducasse (and the like) puts mustard into his mayonnaise April could do the same...

[@kevincody1976]

Eric Sidewater it's hellmans

[@ChefNutter]

Also some apple cider viniger or pickle juice and diced onion

[@DroPsyDro]

recipy starts at 1:10

[@thegalleryBBQ]

Awesome im gonna film this bad boy tomorrow, please join me :)....

[@NeoArtyemi]

Literally moaned when she bit into it

[@badfoody]

April Bloomfield is Mr. Krabs

[@vikingrfamily]

Looks really good, the patties would turn out better if she just did them smash style though.

[@kathsmart9163]

ideas on what the sauce is?

[@xmvriv]

I love this show. Check it out on Netflix if you haven't yet. 😚

[@UserPickForSix]

Music?

[@SykoticMEOW]

i like this girl. 😁😁

[@CalvinLimuel]

Is "classic" supposed to be thin patties?

[@stekks]

Do want!

[@raoeang]

Damn...that's a juicy burger.

[@g00degg]

Burger Bun. Recipe for the Burger Bun please. I beg and plead.

[@kevinjames9926]

Such a sweetheart

[@robertlaube574]

The thin patties look a good meat to everything else ratio.

[@hansruediglaser]

that looks delicious..holy sh...

[@dustinnguyen5731]

beautiful...........

[@MoonV29]

i wanna marry her, or atleast someone like her o.o

[@TheMainMayn]

hahaha omg I love her

[@mowmanable]

i love this chick... she just gets me!

[@justinnanu4338]

Burger in a tortilla press. That''s genius.

[@NYorkR24]

Isn't 1:58 cross contamination? Correct me if I'm wrong

[@TheKooster31]

i'll have 2 number 9s

[@DILLMAC100]

Damm

[@beefree7114]

It looks delicious but I like a bit thicker patty....they looked like pancakes not burger patties....Not saying it would not taste great but thin is not my idea of a burger patty

[@PhillyEaglesdabomb]

+Bee Free they have both styles on the menu

[@AgEd15]

this woman is a badass.. i love her
