I love how Ben was enjoying the impromptu viking tour. Also love that they got to hear "Spaff!" out of nowhere 200+ miles from home. I think Jamie and Barry's dishes suffered from execution rather than concept. In York, they talked about how balanced the ones they bought were, which probably took practice and experimentation. While Ben got his inspiration from the ingredients and knew how to execute it.
I love that he was such a fan that could just shout out the name and they got to enjoy the fries from his stand. A wholesome fan/youtuber interaction and a fun moment.
I think a series of "The Sorted Team goes on Holiday" and ever location has a food battle of some sort using local ingredients and maybe even local cooking methods would be amazing
@@maccladoz Yeah this. A giveaway is that Ben is wearing a different shirt back in the kitchen; And it's not just a jacket, his undershirt is different. You can look at the outside york scenes and see he's wearing a shirt that goes all the way down to his wrists, but in the kitchen he's not. It also has different buttons.
True! They're one of the only channels I'll happily watch when I know the content is branded. They're great at incorporating it, keeping true to their vibe, and only accepting deals that make sense with their brand.
I agree, there are only a handful of channels I know that do ads really well, and Sorted is definitely one of them. When a channel is picky about who they do ads for so that they only do ads for products/companies that really fit well with the channel's content, and only for ones that they clearly believe in (as in: they've got a really good product and/or the company has very good/ethical practices), and they manage to make the ad feel like it fits in with the flow of the video (or even if the entire video is basically an ad, but it's done in a way that makes the video fit in really well with the rest of the channel's videos), well I don't mind ads at all when they're like that. In fact, when the ads fit in so well like they do with Sorted, I'm much more likely to consider actually spending my money on whatever's being advertised. If Sorted started advertising RAID: Shadow Legends or something, yeah no thank you. But the types of things they do advertise, and the way they go about it: that works for me.
@@SortedFood I think this is a great suggestion. With everyone trying to get back to normal after so long, I think checking things out in more day trip like episodes would be great for those who want to travel but for one reason or another can’t go far or for long. Day trips are great for breaks of routine and let you feel a bit less stressed. Also, so many people are unaware of what is nearby.
As an American desperately needing go back to the UK you have added a place I need to go to for food not just the history. Wishing we had trains like that here, it is the way to travel.
Taaaaxi! Well that's what we yell out in my part of Oz if someone breaks a glass. Means they have had to much to drink and need a taxi home. I think Jamie and Bazza did a good job. I would have liked crunchy bubbling cheese on top of the bread but Ebbers looked good too. Ebbers you should have come out in you new chef's jacket to get they guys reaction. Thanks for a fun video again
Ben had far too much fun on that day out and I'm so ridiculously happy for him. And, Chris is so valid, like, if you're in a chip van, and you see Jamie walking around on the edge of your vision, it'd be rude not to hail him down and provide him with a gr8 burger and chips tbh.
I love this community, because you can have millions of regular family folk who love cooking and eating, and then you also have people like Eric who not only go out of their way to meet with the guys in his hometown, (and give them a laugh and a good show!) but also has extensive knowledge and passion for what the boys are working on. Awesome stuff, I really love these travel vid's! A big thanks to all of Sorted, love you guys!
You can tell they're good friends when Ben says "guess the flavor" and shoves something in his mouth and he just goes along with it and actually tries to guess
Loved this episode, but my one critique is that the music was very loud when the crew were speaking, Mike's voice over was fine, but when Barry, Ben, and Jamie were talking to the viking reenactment guy the music was almost drowning them out.
There’s something about you boys scouting cities with book bags that is so adorable. Loved the Bailey’s addition to the iced coffee - such a Spaff thing to do.
Just looking at the final products I thought Ebbers would win this one. However visiting cities, sampling food either in UK or elsewhere and bringing it back to the studio to make some dishes is a winning idea. Please, more of these!.
Canadian here weighing in with my personal opinion about Jamie's poutine: He used cheese curds, so it passes the poutine test. There's been a lot of playing with expanding the toppings options from just the traditional curds and gravy, but without cheese curds, it's not right. (You can put any other variety of toppings on a poutine, but the moment you use shredded cheese, no matter how good the resulting food might be, it's not poutine, it's loaded fries) He gets a pass for not having gravy, since the beef spread thing was gravy-esque. But just barely.
in a way it went closer the the Dutch/Turkish dish named Kapsalon. with is Düner kabab, fries, some green lettuce and what not. and it all covert with a slice of cheese and it melted under a grill.
More. Of. This. Please. That was just fantabulous. I am so jealous of your rail system and am now feeling the urge to travel even more. What a perfect episode.
please do more stuff like going to other cities and towns and experiencing their food for battles. It's a different and much better vibe than marathons and so much nicer to watch imo
This was fantastic! Nothing against London but I have sometimes thought that there are so many other amazing food places in the UK to visit, Sorted should branch out a bit more. I would love to see more like this!
That roast dinner in a Yorkshire pudding looked awesome…Jolly did a video on them last week (not from York) and they gave them a recommendation as well 👍
I am living vicariously through you guys. Travel not really an option at the moment, so combining travel with food combines all the senses, in my humble opinion. Please do more trips, especially to the more obscure places. Let the other boring dumbells do the obvious destinations, you do the unexpected ones. Hint: you already have a guide if you come to South Africa! 😉
I love seeing you all run into people who watch your channel while out and about. Also I loved this form of video. Traveling somewhere, getting local ingredients and then doing a battle
I did love watching you travel to York to find local ingredients and support the local small businesses that have been so hard hit by the pandemic worldwide. Well done! I did love traveling all over the UK by train when I spent over four months on vacation there back in the late 1970s.
Erik should be a judge on the show at some point ... Obviously in full reenactment gear... I don't care if he doesn't have any culinary skills, my point still stands. 😂
Oh BOY have I missed these kinds of episodes I'm glad with Covid closing up (despite me currently having it) we can have episodes like this again Christian and Eric made me absolutely fall in love with this Well done, Lads!
Hey sorted. Love the travel theme. And I would love to see a extended challenge with the theme "gluten free" - not from a modern liveststyle view. From a allergic against - view. (By the way, this is my daily challenge. And a if I loose it, I gather rather nasty pain ) so you loose, even it is not explicit marked on the menu but contains "only a bit flower"
I'm super excited to see the guys doing travel + food content again. I've really been missing this style of episode since COVID began. Looking forward to more international travel!
Normally I think it’s really cringe inducing to see “RU-vidrs” out in the wild. Not with you guys though, think it speaks to how natural you are. Just friendly and enthusiastic without being obnoxious. Thumbs up.
As a Yorkshire lad who hasn't been back in quite a while this made me so happy, seeing all the places i remember and seeing you enjoy them all. thank you :)
aw man, this was such a fun video! it's lovely to see the boys traveling again like the pre-plague times, just stay vigilant and stay healthy! all that food looked amazing too, talk about having the best job ever!
Can I just say, Thank You. Thank you sorted boys. Since Covid hit, I haven't been home to the UK in three years and watching this video made me feel like I was back having adventures around the country I call home.
Love the video! Really makes us want to travel for day trips to discover new foodie places! PS: could you please turn down the music in the background, we struggled to hear you over it 😬
My favorite thing in this video, even though brief from where I sit watching the video at home across the pond in the US, was getting see you guys interact with fans of the show. I love that so much!
This video is the lads running madly round eating everything, while Izzy & Ben just have a pleasant day going for doughnuts and cocktails in York. Then they cook. It's brilliant.
Flawless video, entertaining from beginning to end! I love that you guys are getting support for your channel and hoping for more partnerships in the future. The BESTEST part was you exploring your own territory (per se). I love seeing small businesses supported, and seeing such unique foods. I'm sure you guys were flattered when your fans reached out to you in person :)
Oh this brings back memories!! York is a religious place for me because it helped me surviving the ups and downs during my PhD. Every time I felt overloaded - I took a train ride to York, 2 hours from where I was. I love the Yorkie wrap, Betty's, the pork pie at the Shambles, and Italian food at an Italian restaurant called La Vecchia Scuola. Thanks guys for this video!
We need more of these types of episodes! Definitely make it a series! Love seeing the variety of produce in different cities in the uk and around the world and this is a great concept. Hoping for another sponsorship soon so you get to do it again!
As a Canadian....I'm torn between saying "What have you done to one of our national foods (poutine)?!?!" on the other hand that looks so good and Canadian is a mosaic so well done embracing your inner Yorkshire Canadian!
Had it been a 3 way contest between Jamie, Barry, and Ben, I think Jamie would have won. The response to Barry's felt like it brought down the normals.
I loved this format. Amazing to see some recommendations, background history on the food and where the guy's recipe ideas came from. Would love to see more of this!
I love that you actually use suggestions the community give you and reach out to local businesses! And that Viking reenact or was so cool and interesting!
I think if the dessert wrap by Baz was a bit better, maybe a bit "less", they might have pulled the win since Jamie's wrap looked phenomenal. I've actually seen Jolly do an episode on that place for the traditional sunday roast wrap and I was totally upset that there wasn't one over here across the pond. Either way they all looked great and now I'm hungry.
What I've found helps bring tang and more tart apple flavor to apples is giving them a dip in lemon juice. The tartness interacts with the acidity of the apples to punch up that side of the flavor, making it strong enough to even shine through a double layer of ganache. Yes, I _have_ made a chocolate-and-apple tart using this very method, sandwiching my lemon-spiked apple filling between 2 layers of chocolate ganache in a butter-and-biscuit shell. Rich, complex, and utterly satisfying. I highly recommend it.
I missed this kind of videos from you guys ! Loved it and bookmarked all the places for my next trip to the UK ! If I had to nitpick a bit I'd say that the music was a bit too loud at times,and it might be that my new laptop has crap speakers, but I found that I had to turn the subtitles on a few times to catch what you or Erik the viking were saying
I’ve missed these travelling videos, I thought your 24 hour videos of London and Edinburgh were great- something that influenced where I ate when I went to both. Would love to see you explore areas like Manchester and Liverpool, and try some northern food like oat cakes, Eccles cakes etc
You missed the best thing you can get in York - Curd Cake also know as Yorkshire cheesecake. I have been known to take the train from Glasgow just to load up on them.
Hurray for LNER, I live along their route near Leeds. Great content that happened to be an ad, very well blended together. I hope you're able to do more of these up and down the country, with all them great rail links in and out of central London!
I LOVED THIS EPISODE. It is so fun going around with you and seeing all these lovely shops. I so want to be there tasting along with you. And OH MY do those yorkshire pudding wraps look amazing!
Top job boys: My wife and I are taking our 7 year old grandson to York for three nights in late August, so your trip has given me a few ideas as to where we will be going for food.
Yes! I've been waiting for the York episode since you travelled there. So glad you went to Taylor Made Kitchen, they used to do crispy onions, truffle and duck loaded mac and cheese and it was incredible. York food marathon next?
I don't know if these videos get as many views, but SORTED traveling vlogs are always some of my favorites! It's so fun to see the boys get out of the studio for a change and I get so much travel envy!
While Ben's dish looked delicious. I must say that Jamie and Barry's dish should have won only because Ben did not make the tea cake or the jam but just the cheese sauce on it. Sorry Ben 🫣
I really missed all those videos of the guys travelling to different places and trying the food (thinking the marathon videos) and i'm glad they have started to go out again. Great video!
Alright, as a Canadian I was fascinated to see what Jamie's poutine was, and yeah this is amazing! Loved the episode and seemed like a total blast in York!
I was rewatching all the old head to head to head sand cam up with 2 questions: 1 how about a ultimatum egg battle and 2 what happened to the blue boxing rope!?
oh, i know the answer to the boxing rope! basically, they spent a lot of money on it to make it look like a boxing ring but basically nobody ever noticed it, or if they did realized that it was supposed to look like a boxing ring, so they stopped putting it up a while ago and used it for other stuff (i think they talked about it on a podcast once?). Also, while they never did an ultimate egg battle, they did a "3 Things to Do with Eggs" which is kinda "eh, close enough" in terms of format
Salivating slurpily over the food-good grief, what a turn-on-but what I really want is to roll around in Ben's new chef jacket while indulging in all of it.
I love this! I also just love train travel! It feels more relaxed, and easier somehow than having the stress of the drive and parking etc. One of the things I'm so jealous of as an Australian, is people being in Europe and able to hop on a train and be in such different places within a few hours!
For anyone going. Next to the shambles market on the side of the shambles there is the Parlormade Scone House. And if you continue from the market towards the shambles, if you go left, there is a sausage roll and pie shop on your left hand side. It's called Ye Olde Pie & Sausage Shoppe. It's a take away place. The scone place is for eating in aswell. Both we're amazing and i highly recommend going. The people were lovely and the food was the highlight of our trip.
