Why This Burger Is One of the Hardest to Get in New York - Icons

[@TheBrentYoung]

FANS - WE HAVE SOMETHING COOKING! LET THE POT SIZZLE! SEE YOU SOON.

[@eater]

We can't wait!

[@wahkeen2]

I thought POT SIZZLE was POZOLE and got way too excited...

[@christianjames92]

The Meat Show was always iconic to me. Missed you guys. Glad to see you’re still going strong through COVID and are still successful.

[@bradmosen9008]

Is daddy coming??

[@hioxd]

wheres teh msutache guy

[@prunetracy7651]

I'm so pumped this video came up on my feed. I have been trying to remember videos from Ben and Brent that I saw years ago.

[@DonDotta-dl5oj]

Who’s Ben and Brent?

[@zorgnox]

​@@DonDotta-dl5ojThey had the series "prime time" on eater

[@tobascogladiomatteo4843]

​@@DonDotta-dl5oj There's no Ben in this video...

[@shanefarrell5759]

When eater was meater🥰

[@prunetracy7651]

Ben was featured in old videos. Look up the meat hook and watch the video about bacon.

[@alexanderednie1205]

Miss these guys so much

[@Steezboy3000]

Wish Ben was coming back but it seems he left the Meat Hook to pursue other things :(

[@zod5628]

“I think burgers are iconic because they’re accessible” so we made a burger that’s inaccessible

Bada bing

[@gergomagasvari6089]

ohhhh u re dumb

[@JamesTMurray]

Watching this makes me understand why restaurants charge the amount they do. Insanely specialized equipment to make boutique feeling elements of each dish. No wonder my stuff at home doesn't taste as good.

[@sladewilson9741]

Or they charge so much to feed you frozen mass produced crap for 5x the cost.

[@BobMorrisJr]

You're right, the burger at home is missing the level of pretentiousness in this video.

[@soffa93]

nah these things are basic and usually mostly function to make simple tasks quicker because they have to do them 100x over they charge a lot because rent+wages+profit, at home you pocket the profit

[@thtpilotguy]

LOVE to see Brent back. Keep it up! We love the Meat Hook!

[@TheBrentYoung]

Thank you! Stoked to be back.

Man, I've missed these guys!!!

[@mishamoon5856]

Is Ben not part of the business anymore? This may have been covered in other videos, but it's weird to see a video from these folks without Ben.

[@Chaddingway]

He left like 2 years ago to pursue other interests, but maintains a good relationship with the Meat Hook crew.

[@notmyrealname23]

Looked it up and it seems he left two years ago to work on helping mentor other small businesses in their opening phase!

[@billyjoe3309]

Burgers are among the best thing that life has to offer. No doubt!

[@studyjoe1967]

This shoul be counted as a prime time episode

[@tutudutta6713]

I've never been a burger lover but the way it's cooked, especially the patty, I'm like 'never say never to all burgers' this may just make you fall in love with Burgers. So I'll definitely give it a try. But i prefer to not have onions in it as I'm a little sensitive to onion. But I'll definitely give this burger a try☺

[@directed6924]

Easier to build a spaceship than to make this burger.

[@BastiGrunau]

Food videos + dinner = ❤

[@victorlopez2254]

Estos tios eran la caña!!!

[@Sakja]

There was an old burger tavern chain that I used to eat at in NYC. Can't for the life of me remember its name, but they had great burgers. Probably closed now.

[@stevejackson9952]

Well this place is in Brooklyn and $22 for a 6oz burger.

[@КенобиОбиВан-п6в]

Well done guys. It looks very tasty. Good luck to you all.

[@stevejackson9952]

Would you pay $22 for it?

[@КенобиОбиВан-п6в]

@stevejackson9952 perhaps yes. If I had traveled there.

[@arifnh_]

I think I've watched all the Prime Time videos. really missed these guys.

[@theironworker781]

I think people like the variations too when it comes to burgers.

I want more Mike, get that man his own show.

I don't know. I never tried to get in a burger...

[@jojiscuisine7492]

I learned an awful lot about butchery from prime time videos compared to when i was in culinary school..

[@Chefmeia]

Finally a smash burger not on a martins roll! I was just ranting about this

[@trsmith2442]

It's amazing what all has gone into this burger, but honestly this is a case of less is more.

Fly on the meat @ 0:39.50 - 0:40.00 Using the center column as a reference grid, column 1, row 10 (top right square).

[@christianjames92]

I don’t eat a ton of red meat anymore, but to me if I’m going to eat it I go all out dry aged beef is just a different level. It’s one of the few things that’s not hyped that has been hyped on the Internet. I’ve toyed with the idea of being a fridge to dry age shit myself that’s how good it is.

[@skorpekh]

Yesssssss I've missed the meat hook

[@dwaynekoblitz6032]

I love Brent WAY MORE than I'll ever love a burger. But it does look tasty. But I'll never come close to actually eating one.

Thank you Brett and team for sharing your amazing burger(s). It is also great when we get to see such nice people who work there and are invested in making quality products. I really love the bacon-onion jam. Thank you #Eater for another great tour of someone who has perfected an idea that not only makes money but also makes customers happy. Thank you to #CaapitalOne for sponsoring the team at Eater and bringing us the best of small business success stories.

[@aidorue]

The meat hook is so overpriced, i fw the owner tho, he seems chill

[@pavelow235]

Inflation

[@aidorue]

@ nah there’s literally two butchers across the street that are half the price, they’re just hyped up kinda like publican in Chicago, so they charge whatever they want and people will pay

[@TheBrentYoung]

@@aidorue Our meat is sourced from local farms that have excellent farming practices that are better for the earth, better for the animal, better for the consumer, and taste better too. No shade on the other shops - but we have close relationships with our farmers and transparency in our sourcing. It's very important to us, but unfortunately yes, it is expensive. But don't get me wrong, no one is getting rich by offering this high quality product
