At home, I feel like my biggest obstacles are coordination and timing. If you want to make burgers served with fries and dipping sauce for a party of 4 that are all served hot at the same time, it's a struggle. It'd be amazing if you put out a video specifically around coordination and managing the order of operations. I really appreciate all the little process tips you sprinkle into your vids.

My trick with burgers is salt and pepper like you use, but instead of a neutral oil, I oil the pan itself and brush Worcestershire sauce onto the patties with a marinade brush. F-ing amazing.

Awesome, watched other videos where they're trying to get you to use some "perfect" blend of different cuts, formulas to calculate the fat percentage, etc., etc., I watch this video and you're like, "meh, just grab a decent chuck roast and grind some burger," lol. Subscribed.
@bassfever3 ай бұрын
That looks like a great homemade burger! You have skills for sure. The title got me here, because I think it's pretty easy to make a burger better than most restaurants. The exception I'll grant is for a restaurant that truly specializes in burgers, and even there, it's not a given, they can get too pretentious for their own good when you just want a tasty burger (see my callback to Pulp Fiction?). The main issue I come across is lack of attention or customization for the toppings, which will make or break the burger. If I have to remind the server for my ketchup/mustard/mayo, the place is getting dinged. If I don't get lettuce, pickle, and onion, points off. If they give me a tomato, they fail. The worst burger I ever had at a restaurant was a place that touted all local ingredients, great beef, and when we called and asked the person said they are known for their great burgers. The burger came with 2 thick rings of raw onion, not good coverage for the patty and sliced way too thick; 1 piece of leaf lettuce that was a decent garnish for the plate but not a good crunch for my burger. There was ketchup at the table but they forgot my mustard and mayo, and no pickle. This was the kicker. I reminded my server about the pickle and they brought out a little plastic souffle cup with just a 2-inch chunk of pickel, which I had to slice with the dull butter knife at the table to get a couple large chunks to offset the onions. The beef was Ok I guess. And to be clear, I did specify the toppings and condiments when I ordered. Otherwise, it was just about the worst burger experience I've ever had at a restaurant. Very low bar was set there.

Stuff tastes better in restaurants. Hogwash I say. Pick any dish and with a very few exceptions, the best version I’ve had for every single one has been made by me, or a loved one in my own home. The best burger I ever made was grilled over lump charcoal, served with rosemary garlic aioli, and lots of well caramelized onions.

Since the recipe is not on discord, nor on your website, nor on your 'socials', here is my stab at the aoili: (would love if you could put a proper recipe in the video description): Dijonaise 2 egg yolks 5 small cloves garlic, peeled 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1 cup neutral or “good tasting” olive oil lemon zest from 1/2 lemon lemon juice from 1/2 lemon salt prepared horseradish? (optional?) In a chilled tall narrow 4 cup container, add egg yolks, garlic, Dijon mustard. Blend with immersion blender until combined. Slowly add oil, blending as you go. When finished, add remaining ingredients to taste, blend briefly to incorporate.
