American Food - The BEST SMASH BURGERS in Chicago! Redhot Ranch

[@FoodTestbd]

I love how there's no music, no narration. Just the sounds of the kitchen.

[@richardgentry6996]

That's all you Need. 👍

[@darkones4370]

It's soothing too

[@boogitybear2283]

That’s why it’s so popular.

[@charlenebercillio8065]

I agree with u 👍🧅🍔

[@aguskennedy8976]

Thats a simple

[@landongeorge5257]

I used to live in southern Wisconsin and work on a farm. On Friday night I would drive to Chicago to sell at the Wicker Park farmer's market the following morning, and every Friday night, I would come to Red Hot Ranch for 2 Chicago dogs and some cheese fries. It was a tradition, ritual really.

[@bobbyt7448]

Now that's a classic Chicago story. This place is primarily known for their chicago style hotdogs 🌭

[@chucklos391]

Awesome dude!

[@aronzabrown]

Those patties was like butter. They just flattened out with ease!! I should’ve pursued my career in food. It’s a good feeling knowing that you’re satisfying people you don’t know with delicious food

[@williebraxton1988]

This is the Chicago food experience. You can’t duplicate the El, the yellow sign, the wax paper the hot dog without ketchup, and the greasy bag. This brings back memories.

[@tomconverse7862]

Damnit man you stole my lines! 😆🤣

[@josephshulman4330]

Greasy bag , that's sounds like a great name for a punk rock band lol 😂

[@RootinrPootine]

No tomato, no celery salt, no pickle. No dog. Fuck outta here. And get those fucking fries out of my dog and serve them on the side like a human being. Shameful stuff. Lots of “iconic” places in Chicago do this too. Should be illegal.

[@mvjr7758]

Same way from mid 70's- early 2000's, this is Chicago Diner Style. Yuppies and health nuts in late 90's and up drove out so many of these restaurants/ diners / hotdogs stands. Born & raised in Chicago and from mid 70's. So many spots did this style of cheeseburgers. Sky high rent, gentrification just drove out these small spots.

[@tttarms1970]

[@itr0863]

Always respect to places who do fresh hand cut fries.

[@troypham8883]

The close up shot of the food is the money shot. When the food is filmed that close, thats when I feel like I am the one whos eating the food. Just makes me so hungry I can eat 5 of those smashed burgers right now.

[@didibolter9362]

The person that is making the hamburgers sure knows their stuff, looks good! 🤗

[@harvestfarms]

Really? Tomato on bottom with lettuce that is not shredded? Poorly built burger with the ingredients in the wrong place. Yes it matters where the lettuce and tomato are located in the burger. That burger could be better.

Smash burgers were the original way that hamburgers were made prior to all the fast food stuff and frozen patties etc. I grew up in the 50's and there was no fast foods that I remember?? BTW, large all the way burgers were 6 for a dollar $1.00. Large watermelons were also 6 for a dollar and gasoline was, on the average about .18 cents per gallon.

I always liked how some of the restaurants in the Chicago area would include fries with the hotdog. I used to go to Johnny's Beef and it was $2 and some change for a hotdog and fries. I would get two or three. I'm sure the price has gone up since then, but it was a bargain at the time and very good.

I make these once a week for the family. Blackstone is being put to great use. Kids prefer my smash burgers over going to a fast food chain. I’ll have to agree with them on that as well

[@h.g.buddne]

What makes you destroy the juicy burger by smashing the meat? Do your kids walk away if you're not finished in 2 minutes? Are your children too dumb to understand what good ingredients are, the correct treatment for meat on the grill is? Teach them good grilling and not shitty cheap fast food crap for fat morons. What is wrong with doing your best instead of just serving fast shit food?

[@jeffgreenfield2918]

when ground meat is packaged, the meat on the outside is exposed to more oxygen. That's why meat turns a bright red color on the outside while the inside remains brown. When myoglobin is mixed with oxygen it becomes oxymyoghobin, or more commonly knon as "blooming". If the meat on the outside looks brown or grayish brown it is starting to spoil.
