USA vs AUS - The Ultimate Fast Food Burger Questions Answered

[@attorneyrobert]

Here in California, USA, we love In-N-Out because it's so affordable. For almost 20 years they kept the price of their burgers below $1.50, and even now the pricing for everything is about half of other chains. Fresh, friendly, and a local favorite.

[@moonboy5851]

I’m jelly… really want to try it

[@tom69pl]

That’s crazy cheap… and I live in Poland. McDouble cost more than that, mind blown.

[@KipMplaylists]

Every meal he ordered is at least 20 dollars plus in those meals, even McDonald’s in Aus is 80 bucks for 4 people to eat pretty messed up prices and the food is pretty mid

[@VenturiLife]

Impressive. Nothing like that in Australia. All overpriced now.

[@rneustel388]

It’s a favorite here in Arizona, too. My husband and I consider it a treat.

[@Scholesy92]

Biggest problem I have with our Aussie specialty burger chains is just the value proposition. Like - the burgers are good, but the cost of entry is just insane in some places and cant be justified for a 'fast food lunch' type of meal.

[@lxrd_dino4771]

Honestly

[@jeremyd.2156]

Spoken like a true Australian

[@yashbhatt75]

wym by "cost of entry"? Similar to a club entry fee? That would be insane

[@BasementBubbatunde]

​@yashbhatt75 no just that the burger itself cost more than a meal at a general place like kfc or mcdonalds lol. For example a bettys double is 17.50 here. A large popcorn chicken meal at kfc on the other hand is about $14 hope that explains it

[@maxbrown7409]

I'm a Kiwi, and I've been to the USA and Aussie, a couple of times now, and it pains me to say this, but, the Aussies do have really good burgers

[@staggeringdeath8479]

If New Zealand's good burgers are anything like Australia's good burgers you need to go to the burger places that are a little more expensive.....Betty's burgers in Australia are more expensive than your standard takeaway burgers like McDonald's!

Yea Betty's Burger is by far the best burger you can get in Brisbane followed by Grill'd, my 6yo daughter and I have tried every burger place in the city and we both agree on this...

[@12angryrealists]

Betty's burgers is definitely in the top 5 chains here in Oz. The other two are not even close. Burger Project was the best chain until Neil Perry decided to cut his losses early during covid. Not exactly a surprise considering the raw ingredients he was using (cape grim beef etc) Securing the high turnover he needed at those prices was always a big ask.

The randomness of topics is very nice honestly. Hope to see more, Andy! Maybe something like comparing Australian Diners to American Diners (and I mean the local mom/pop hole in the wall diners and not the commercialized ones).

[@jayzonedc6474]

Are "Australian Diners" even a thing? "Diners" aren't really a thing in New Zealand (of course we have some, probably some created by American immigrants, etc) but they aren't really a significant part of our culture.

[@IvyMaeInReno]

One of the glories of In N Out is that you can ask to have the fries "well-cooked" and then they are divine. I also ask for extra packets of their burger sauce to dip them in. So, so good!

[@mabolzichjjl]

We shouldn't have to ask specifically for the fries to be cooked the way they SHOULD be cooked. If in-n-out were decent they'd just cook stuff correctly to begin with

[@mmmonkay]

“light-well” is the best imho. it’s just the perfect crunchiness

[@JohnVC]

Love the format. It's nice to see an actual chef doing food reviews!

[@pamhallinan8015]

Perhaps not burgers tho

[@SaltEarthandSun]

Hahah this is awesome. :) Love the dedication! I got to say though, something like this is probably subject to a fair amount of palate bais. One thing I noticed in the US is that everything tastes a bit different and that taste could arguably seem 'nicer' to somebody who lives there. The pervasion of 'sweetness' is a good example. Everything is sweet. . .it's hard to actually find bread without a bunch of added sugar - which to us in Oz sounds crazy. Even their Dry red wines still exhibit a great deal more sweetness than we expect from ours here at home. Perhaps an American would score our burgers lower because the taste profile isn't what they are used to and its been designed for Australia's desire for more savoury flavours. . . 🤷‍♂

[@Butanozl]

I was going to have a healthy bowl of salad for dinner, now I'm on the way to a local burger joint. thanks andy

[@timdricklamar]

Killer content, I am such a burger nerd and love seeing stuff like the burger culture in Aus. Burger Urge looked awesome, but the tomato did make me audibly laugh. Assessment of In-N-Out is pretty spot on, I personally can't get around the price of Shake Shack, it really deters me from eating there but it is good. The midwest US has a solid offering with a spot called Culvers, and the south is all Whataburger. Thank you for the video!

[@verts_tv]

You should do local takeaway shop burgers in Aus for a video.

[@katesmith8424]

Yes I would love to see this

[@joshf-w9602]

Betty’s is definitely up there, really enjoyed the texture of the patty. I had In n out at a few locations in the states, the one in Vegas was ok but it was a really busy restaurant so felt abit like a conveyer belt system, was as much care taken with everything. Tried it again in San Diego, this store was near a military base and heavily frequented by military members and there seemed to be abit more care and attention. One of the fave places in Sydney is Chubby Buns which is a food truck but has fixed locations, but different style burger as they’re thicker patties grilled over charcoal but I’m a big fan

[@jasondavis3615]

When I was in Australia I don’t remember hitting any fast food burger places. But all the burgers I had at any take away shop was way better than any burger here in the US. I think you all just have better quality beef which makes a huge difference. But steak and shake has the best fries imo

[@AndyViant]

Local fisho burgers are lacking consistency from place to place, but the individual stores can be consistently awesome. But for a traveller, it's like going to Maccas one day, KFC the next.... it's all over the shop. When you find a good one, you stick with it.

[@benclayton3762]

I like the technical almost scientific assessment of these burgers by a skilled tradesman chef. Theres a definite method and level of effort needed to get a burger right. Nice one chef.

[@victortaudinchabot351]

This was a very interesting video. Well done Andy! Cant wait to see whats coming next

[@andy_cooks]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Vashe00]

Have to do “animal style” for the double double at in n out. Caramelized onions and they fry the burger in mustard.

[@McNasty43]

As a fan of mustard, animal style is pretty much mandatory for me.

[@muszr00m]

If that's the case, it sounds like In n Out is trash and the only way to half enjoy it is to get them to fry it in sauce. Not the sign of a good burger.

[@cadmus777]

As an Aussie, I've never seen or heard of Betty's Burgers. Looking at their website, I guess they do fit the definiton of 'chain', but pretty small. I've had the other two, and you're right, they're not bad, but as I'm sure is the same everywhere, they don't even compare to my non-chain favourite burger place (Just Poppy's, Riverhills, Brisbane). Something about chains not being able to scale properly I guess.

[@maoristutuff]

Just Poppy’s is pretty good their chips are really good.They have so many types of burgers on the menu

[@sjc4]

right, and putting them head to head with McDonald's isn't fair to Betty's or McDonalds lol

[@MrDoobee1]

Loving this new format and can't wait for other take away cuisines. I prefer a burger from your local fish and chip shop

[@smally8499234]

Fish and chip shop burger with the lot, can't beat it for value.

[@IceBreakBottle]

I've always rated Grill'd very highly. Their burgers and ingredients are super tasty. You don't feel like crap after eating it. Somehow you feel like you have eaten something healthy, while satisfying those fast food needs

[@JesusChrist-ze1mb]

Depends on the Grilld the ones closer to Sydney CBD aren't the best but penriths and Parramatta aren't bad

[@IceBreakBottle]

@@JesusChrist-ze1mb ah yep, I'm in Brisbane and haven't had that issue yet

[@pablojescobar3400]

Honestly my fav burger out of both countries franchises is 5 Guys. The best I had in Sydney and New York. I don't get the fries just 2 x Double Cheese Burgers with grilled onions, mushrooms, lettuce, mayo, mustard and pickles. Very expensive (in Oz) but worth it imo. Many say In N Out are good for the price but aren't anything special when comparing to 20 dollar plus burgers. Bettys I found the buns too soft and feels like a greasy mess. Each to their own.

[@twowheelsandcroissant]

5 Guys is super expensive, spent like $75 for two people, only for two burgers, a shared chips and 2 shakes

[@Jabid21]

Five Guys has been my favorite spot when I lived in NY. Although I stopped going there and went once in a blue moon cause it became too expensive. I also like Smashburger and BurgerFi, these two chains are rare and will probably won’t get mentioned.

[@pablojescobar3400]

@@twowheelsandcroissant Yeah I think I paid $26 for just the burger

[@tanikokishimoto1604]

I like Five Guys best, too. I probably go about 4 to 5 times a year. (Which is more than I go to any other burger place). I get a single patty, cheese, bacon, pickles, mustard, and sometimes mushrooms or onions, on the lettuce wrap. Usually don't bother with any sides or beverage, especially since it seems they charge for water (which comes from the same dispenser as the soda), and I don't care for soda. But I do love their fries - I just don't always want them because the burger itself is generally filling enough.

[@julianneaustegard477]

Love this format👏keep it coming🤩

[@50sKid]

You can't compare In-N-Out to things like Shake Shack or any of those Australian chains because they looked like they were on a whole 'nother level. In-N-Out is from the era when the only other chains were McDonalds, Burger King, Jack-In-The-Box, and Wendy's. That's who you compare them to, no others.

[@pablojescobar3400]

Good point. Also depends on who cooked it as well. What if it's a 15 year olds first day. So many variables.

[@msjp81]

One aspect i would have loved to see is a price adjustment to the score. The aussie visits were an AU$30 lunch. In and out in dollarbucks was about 18 bucks, the second one about 14 bucks AUD. Last US one... 33 bucks

[@jj522]

Agree. These days cost is everything

[@leonardodakimchi748]

Nooooooo you didn't get the In n Out burger animal style. They caramelize and chop up the onions while mixing it with the burger sauce to make a spread instead of giving you a huge slice of raw onion. Thats like the whole point of getting an In n Out burger 😭

[@NeutronDance]

They should really just put it on the menu. Nothing is secret anymore.

[@brandyjean7015]

Someone should have educated our fav Aussie Chef how to order @ In-N-Out.... It is an acquired skill.

[@keldor8302]

I see this same comment on every KZbin video that reviews their burgers. I don't even have one of these near me. And I know to order it this way out of exposure. It makes me think that this is done either out of ignorance in not doing the homework. Or intentionally, to spark people to comment and help with the algorithm.

[@Hannah_The_Heretic]

If its that good why doesnt it come standard? Genuinely curious. Oh and ive never heard of an "animal style" before, just to throw that out there.

[@keldor8302]

@Hannah_The_Heretic it would be the equivalent to changing the big Mac or Whopper after a special order version of it becomes popular. Every chain has a classic that they're synonymous with. Changing that would mean losing that product association and brand recognition.

[@trmentry]

Your score In-and-Out Fries is spot on. We go there to get the burgers only. Then get fries at McDs on the way home.

[@jameshaulenbeek5931]

Gotta check out smaller, local or regional places. Fast food is okay - the big thing is getting something reliable and consistent. The small local places really make our burger culture what it is!

'Under seasoned' has got to be the catch phrase for everything you were eating in USA. Fun video, thank you! And to be fair, aligns with my experiences from travelling in the USA from Australia too ;-)

[@McNasty43]

Interesting. When you say under-seasoned, are you saying it's lacking salt, or that it's lacking other seasonings? Fast food burgers aren't something I'd consider lacking salt.

[@ratsock]

Its not necessarily lack of salt itself but how the salt is incorporated into the dish. Depending on what kind of salt is used and when it’s added, it could just be adding sodium without adding flavor.

[@erwinchan6077]

I assume everything in the US is oversweet and oversalted. I'm surprised Andy said it was under seasoned.

[@Zei33]

@@McNasty43 When you're talking about burger seasoning, it would be salt and pepper, maybe MSG and potentially a couple others. He's talking about intensity of the seasoning. I've been travelling recently and I also had a Japanese girl come stay with me (in the same town as Andy lives!). The general consensus is that Australian food is heavily seasoned while overseas palettes are 'more subtle'.

[@dariusquan8670]

The thing about about "in n out" is that though they don't have the best burger they are half the price of most burgers on the list. So for me if an " in n out" burger is as half as good as the others (which it far exceeds) it is still a better burger.

Never been to Australia, so can't vote. However, US fast food burgers are pretty awful: poor quality meat, light weight, limited seasoning and NEVER ever any serious char. Fries are always under cooked using old oil, rarely crispy and never taste fresh. Plus, most times the food is not hot. Yes, the service is usually friendly, but willing to pay a $ or two more for better quality. Andy, thanks for confirming my experience in the US. Please, please send this vlog to all fast food burger chains in the US (since you have the credentials) and my comments. Maybe things will change with your help!

You can order onions at shake shack, you just have to ask. I recommend a double patty shroom stack with raw onions to anyone. It’s the only thing worth the $ at Shake Shack in my opinion. Maybe throw herb mayo on it.

[@imcharming4808]

I'm American and have always found the "nicer" fast food burger joints like In-N-Out and Five Guys' burgers to be under-seasoned. Five Guys doesn't salt their meat at all, so you end up with less-than-seasoned beef and too much unseasoned salad. I'm not saying that's bad; with the cheese it's a tasty combo, but for me it could be better. Maybe they're trying to be a bit healthier?

Lastly, the best burgers I've had are at Andrews Burgers in Albert Park, Vic. They're so good!!

[@userisalex]

Totally agree with Grill'd. I've had Grill'd in many different places around the place (Cairns, GC, Gosford, Melbourne and Adelaide) and if you order the same burger, it is consistently good in each and every place you visit. Betty's is not as consistent.

[@joshevans5127]

I'm not sure why, because Americans love fries, but they're kind of an afterthought in most of our fast food restaurants. Also lack of seasoning seems to be a through-line for the American spots, which I can attest to, which is why I always have Cajun seasoning handy when possible.

[@Zei33]

We loooove our fries in Australia. It comes as a side with _everything_. Furthermore, Australians LOVE strong seasoning. I recently spent 2 months in Japan and noticed that everything was severely under-seasoned, meanwhile a Japanese student came to Australia and she said the seasoning was overwhelming. I wonder if Americans just have a subtler palette like the Japanese. Andy would be used to Australian levels of seasoning which could bring down the American scores.

[@kellyliang7102]

@@Zei33 agree that we season our chips heavily. espcially if they are thick cut. places like snitz and grill'd have their signature seasoning which is absolutely delicious. japan has these shake shake packages for their fries in Maccas if you want extra flavour

One strength about Australian food is that it's substantially healthier, as the ingredients are more fresh (despite being injected with chemicals to prolong it's life), and the fast food doesn't contain an abundance of chemicals, preservatives and artificial flavourings

I live in Australia and am a Burger lover. My job requires me to travel to the USA multiple times a year. My USA favourite by miles is In N Out Burger . The Quality and Pricing beats Australia Hands Down. The Double Double is not my favourite selection , the single Patty Classic is tastier. You can choose the uncooked or cooked onion for your burger when your order at No charge.The Shakes at In N Out are made from real cream. My favourite Australian Burger is Betty's Burger Classic which tastes pretty much the same as In N Out but it is way more expensive than In N Out when you factor the Aus$ to US$ Exchange rate.

[@christopher5855]

Yea I'm not a fan of any "fast food" burgers here in the USA. I really think that if you want a good burger here you have to go to a Sports bar, dive bar, diner or casual dining place to find one. Fast food here in the States is all quantity and speed over quality and it shows. By casual dining I mean anything that is in between a fast food place and a restaurant. I'd say Steak N Shake, Red Robin, Portillos, or Five guys would be good examples though Red Robin is more of a chain restaurant like Apple Bee's or Chillis.

In n out fries (not chips) should be ordered "well done" for the crispy version. Just something the locals know about. Also the burger can be customized to your liking. Basic In n Out is just okay. Customized In n Out is amazing!

[@McNasty43]

Well done in-in-out fries are basically hollow. A good fry has a nice fluffy interior, and if you get them well done, the interior just kind of evaporates. The problem with in-n-out fries is that they're not double fried. Other fast food joints have fries that are par-cooked and frozen.

[@rodncin]

@@McNasty43 You are describing "very well done" fries which are dessicated. well done is just crispy

[@cubaisdeath]

as a pro tip, when you go to in-n-out you need to ask for your fries "well done" and salt them yourself. Especially if you get them animal style. Well done fries are a must at in-n-out, they'll give you that crunch and consistency you're looking for

[@rockcharles8531]

It's a bit biased, an Aussie comparing Australian burgers to American ones. I also think it's a bit skewed because the burger joints in the US (excluding Shake Shack) are proper FAST food, drive-through joints. You won't find a Betty's or Grill'd in Australia that has that similar level of service aimed at efficiency and speed, so of course I'd definitely expect the quality to also be higher with more time spent. Not to mention, the prices of those Australian burgers weren't discussed 👀. All that being said, as an American in Aus for years now, if you made a fair equivalent comparison -- say US McDonalds to Aus McDonalds -- Australia's beef patty wins.

[@healthyliving7226]

What's the best burger in America ? In your opinion how does bettys and grilld compare.

So as a So Cal born person living in Aus i have two faults. In N Out you want animal style burger and fries. It is loved due to its freshness for the price. With your Bettys order, it has bacon and you didnt get a burger with their burger sauce. I rate them quite highly tbh. But fantastic job on the vid and much love ❤️.

Sam's Takeaway at Woolloongabba is a family run by two folk in their 70s and make a great burger! PS. Their vietnamese springrolls are megavalue and lush.

Betty’s is my goto fast food burger chain in Australia, but I do agree their chips need some work (that’s why I get onion rings)

I totally agree regarding the In n Out fries. They use Kennebec potatoes which have that weird mealy texture you disliked, as well as an odd flavor. It's crazy to me that they haven't switched to Russet potatoes, since it's widely agreed upon that their fries need improvement. I disagree with you on the In n Out burger bun though. It's my favorite aspect of their burger (Other than the remarkably low price of it). Everything else about the burger is pretty standard, nothing special.

Also crazy how he’s comparing in n out to those other “fast food” Australian burger spots. All of the Australian burger spots are twice the price of an in n out burger

Like that format! :)

This was a great break from the usual recipe vids which are also awesome! It trips me out how similar but different our lingo is when it comes to food! Sauces = ketchup. Chips = fries. Salad = lettuce. So coo!

Glad you enjoyed it!

One bite, everyone knows he’s better than Portnoy.

Come check out A&W in Canada. It's vastly different than it's American counterpart. People who've had both say Canadian A&W is vastly better. There is another Canadian chain called Harvey's. I've never had it as they haven't really expanded into my home province of Saskatchewan. Canada needs more of their own identity when it comes to burger chains. We have the usual McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's, and Dairy Queen. There are some smaller chains, but nothing I could recommend outside of A&W. What I've noticed when it comes to the United States, they have a myriad of options for burger chains outside of the big ones. I would say Burger Baron, but each are independently owned and may not always have the same things outside of their burgers. Their burgers are great. It's unfortunate that the one in my hometown closed down. Burger Baron is a Western Canadian chain concentrated to the province Alberta now.

Fergburger next! Just a short hop over.

Sunny coast Grilld must be far superior to everywhere else Grilld!

[@crystalkring]

Love Betty’s the shroom burger and of course the beef burger! Their beef burger is the closest we can get to In and Out from LA. Strawberry milkshake from Betty’s also good as well my daughter loves it! In and Out animal fries and beef burger love it as well and price pretty reasonable. I would also want to add Fergburger from Queenstown NZ, the burger is so juicy and onion rings were so thick! We had a teary eye while eating Fergburger 😅😂

As someone who lives down the street from an In N Out, it is over hyped. But I will say this though, In N Out's burgers tick all the boxes of what a standard basic burger should be, but nothing really to write home about. I would also argue that is the very reason why I sometimes love it.

[@MoebiusChungus]

In N Out people constantly complain when people don’t get the Animal Style option, but honestly if that’s best way to get the food then why not make it a menu standard except of something you have to ASK for. It’s really dumb considering that’s really what the chain is known for.

[@ejvitta5879]

In N Out pricing beats all. Also Double Double, grilled whole onions, chop chilies. That’s a good burger for about 5-6 bucks

[@OTCHooly]

Love your content Andy on all social channels

[@bensmith7536]

Of the burgers Ive had around the place although NOT the US, more so Japan, Singapore, France, Italy, Malaysia, NZ I hate to admit a double 1/4 pounder from McD's is up there for pure beef hit -----------for what I like in a burger-------. Fergburger in Queenstown NZ is probably the best Ive had for pure quality and range.

[@Osmocote]

In n Out is on par with Aussie Macca's.
