Binging with Babish Taste-Tests Regional Burger Styles | The Burger Show 

Binging with Babish AND George Motz! Which burger from today's episode was your favorite???

Hey look it's Binging from binging with Babish

Love how uncensored babish is on literally any other video that's not on his channel

"I've eaten thousands and thousands of burgers in the last 18 years of research." I've been doing the same research for 26 years and I consider this man a PhD in burger mechanics.

IDK who Stacy is either, but I hear that her mom has got it goin' on.

TWO hits of Babish this morning? What did we do to deserve such a blessing?

This guy makes me think of Wolverine if he became a burger meistro.

The way Andrew looked at the camera when the guy said "I sell these on my website" is my mood

burger joint idea: the seating is like a sushi bar but having a long flat top for cooking burgers, your chef (graduated from George Motz burger academy) offers you a wide range of regional burger selections where they would cook it in front of you while going through the history and the trivia related to that burger, just like what he's doing here.

"I'm not a big fan of putting fries on sandwiches, it's frankly grotesque..." And just like that, Babish was banned from Pittsburgh.

_The colab we never knew we needed._

6:23 imagine biting into a burger and it nuts lava into your mouth

“I have eaten thousands of burgers over the last 18 years for research” is my new excuse

He's in pretty good shape for someone who's devoted the past 18 years to eating burgers.

I love this series, but goddamn it makes me so hungry. I'll probably gain a few pounds with the new season.

I live literally 2 blocks away from Matt's in south Minneapolis and when they get going I can sometimes smell it from my front porch

George Motz would make a fantastic voice actor for a villain in an english dubbed anime...

I would watch a series of George talking about the history of burgers.

6:34 "that's hot" had me crying thinking of youtube rewind

Shoutout to Christina Applegate!

Something about babish and his cookery really ties together with motz and his burgers. Genuinely feel they could stretch America's burger history together

THIS IS A NIGHTMARE TO WATCH WHILST HUNGRY. Love you guys.

People talking about Babish but George Motz seriously steals the show in every episode he's in. Edit: I'd love for him to host the show with Alvin making appearances as a constant recurrent character.

He is like the burger version of James may

I think every time I come back to this series, the slow mo and the commentary makes everything so magical. Bless you guys for turning mouths into fountains for burgers

Minnesotan here. Can confirm that if you want to impress your significant other, you don't make regular burgers. You make a jucy lucy.

babish's subtle comments throughout killed me

Minnesota resident here. You *do not* require a patty press for a juicy lucy. But, I'm glad you highlighted the correct way to make one. TOO MANY places that sell juicy lucy's (even here) make a thick ball that explodes, causing all the cheese to leak out off of the burger. The realist juicy lucy you can get is at the 5-8 club. It is always done perfect there.

As a central Illinoisan, thank you for showcasing our regional style of burger. There is a local chain here named Krekels who is god tier when it comes to that style.

Lmao I died at 6:29 when he was like "I don't give a fuuuuck" 😂😂😂😂

One of my most treasured memories of the last half-decade is sitting in Matt's Bar with a bunch of my MFA classmates, skipping an early afternoon class to hang out and drink beer and eat burgers and brainstorm our next masterpieces.

9:56 he new that if he died at that moment, he’d kick god’s ass for interrupting his meal

George Motz is Burger Jedi Knight. Give him his own show. Steals the show every time.

I didn't know Sean schemmel had a burger grilling degree

This guy inspires me to be passionate about what you love. I mean, HIS PASSION IS BURGERS. Love this guy.

"Hey Baby i hear the blues a calling toseed salad and scrambled eggs"

_When are you going to get Gloria Borger on The Burger Show?_

I'm from Minnesota and I live in Scotland now. Just this week I found out that Scotland has its own version of the jucy lucy called the "cheeze n burger." Like the jucy lucy, it is two thin patties with cheese in between, but unlike the jucy lucy, it is then dipped in batter and deep fried. The bun is optional, but I like it on a traditional Scottish morning roll. I hate how much I like it.

Perfect spot for Babish being hungover; being fed burgers the whole episode

Good thing Tony Hawk wasn’t here to try three traditional burger recipes that all have onion

George Motz looks like Johnny Knoxville traveled to the future and stole old-man Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine hair

As someone raised in central illinois, I can confirm that research is correct on the lacy edge burger. Growing up I just figured everyone had these types of burgers

The fact that he has the kitchen in the living room is crazy. The smell of the griddle

Matt’s Bar is a small place. You can’t fit too many people in there. If you go at the wrong time, you will wait in line. The menu is simple, but for good reason. They NAIL the Jucy Lucy (proper spelling...sorry 5-8 Club 🤷🏼‍♀️). If you sit at end of the bar, you can actually watch your food being cooked. Having worked at a burger joint myself, I was in awe of the grill cook. He had an entire flattop full of patties and onions and everything else going on, and while he was sweating because of the heat, he made everything LOOK graceful and easy. You leave smelling a little like onion and burger grease, but it’s so worth it. The food and the experience add up to a great time. Their main competition is the 5-8 Club, who stuff the burger with so much cheese that it’s almost overwhelming. But sometimes less is more. I live in neighboring WI, and I head to Matt’s Bar every time I’m in Minneapolis!

Alvin just got re-coded from that Frita.

you know the guy is a legend when Even babish is learning with him

Thx for the tutorial You don’t really need the press for the Lucy, you just need equal weight meatballs and smash them between two sheets of parchment paper each.

Juicy Lucy has ventured outside of Minneapolis, but it's pretty much a Minnesota thing.

The “Lacy Stacy” - that’s a thumbs up from me, right there!!

Love that he covered the ”Frita”. I’m from Miami and I love them.

3:13 that face was gold

When you’re 32 but want people to think you’re 78

I think 18 years and thousands of burgers has left a layer of grease on his vocal cords 😂 He sounds like a character from Sesame Street

That lacy edge burger is what Freddy's Frozen Custard serves and the way they make them is an art in it of itself.

I always order crispy hash browns to put in my burger when I can. Had a Cuban who was a grill cook with me and talked me into putting hashbrows casserole on my burger. And now I can't eat burgers without them

Sooooooo basically George Motz should be hosting this show and not Alvin.

The Prof looks like James May if he was constantly wired on burgers

Watching burger videos while eating burgers is the best way to burgerburger in burger

Part of what made Matt's Juicy Lucy taste amazing to me was standing in a line out in the cold, finally getting inside only to be accosted by the smell and heat of the grill for another 15-20 minutes before you get to order. So after 30 minutes of smelling this thing it's like the burger gods answering your prayers. Maybe it was just really busy that day, but it made the burger better. Matt's for the pub burger, 5/8 club for a diner version and Blue Door Pub for the best dressed Lucy's in town.

Just missing Brad Loene and this would've been fricking EPIC!!!

First person I've seen now and days rocking mutton chops that don't look half bad

WOLVERINE TEACHING US ABOUT BURGERS WHEN HE FOUND INNER PEACE.

I loved these episodes! Keep them coming!

As a citizen St. Louis Carl's is damn good. The root beer there is off the hook as well. Another hidden gem of a burger place in St. Louis is Busloop Burgers. Highly recommend.

George Motz is the Solid Snake of Burgers. Sometimes his voice just sounds a bit like Snake.

Ok, I need to know how a big dude like Alvin is always wearing a sweatshirt and beanie indoors, and never appears to be sweating. I get uncomfortable just looking at him, but he seems fine! I'd be sweating buckets!

I'm Cuban. Ty George for showing our food on your show! Miami pride!

My mans watch costs 40k and he still making burgers...

Fantastic video! George Motz... You Rock My Friend!

"im tired, im hungry, im hungover" babish literally my mood rn

There's a place in Tempe, AZ called The Chuckbox who does a neat variant of that Jucy Lucy with grilled green chiles that they call a Tijuana Torpedo. A great regional variation on an already regional burger

George Motz is so fantastic. If he had his own show I'd watch it.

Am i the only one who thinks Babish would make a awesome guest star on Bobs Burgers??

beauty in simplicity.

I'm loving this series, and loving George Motz!

*Smashes a piece of meat into a flattop, puts American cheese with onions and pickles onto it* “There’s SOUL in this”

Binging with Babish? I think I’d know Michael Stevens from Vsauce when I see him

8:00 my favorite part of any video I've seen on here 🤣🤣🤣

Tavern pizza in Chicago was also free for the same reason. Keep you at the bar drinking.

That thumbnail made me think... Hey, Vsauce! Michael here lmao.

"This burger spawned shake Shack because...... There's.. soul in this..." Lol wut.

Love these friggin burger shows, so much inspiration

This guy took burger like it's an official course in college! 18 damn years studying burger is just max level

"Putting fries on sandwiches is grotesque." *many people from Pittsburgh start typing furiously*

Haha! What a fun food video! Babish is so chill and Alvin just be rollin on up to the plate offering his style too. No haters in the room, just three dudes looking at interesting burger types and flavors. Props to the video editor, love the graphics in this, they put in some work on it. I have a friend from the ChiTown area, will be on lookout for a lacy burger if we do a road trip again. Peace now, yall.

Central Illinois over here and I have two and a half words- Steak N Shake. Smash burgers and shakes can’t go wrong unless you go through the drive thru.

It's crazy just how regional some of the burgers on this show are. I was born and raised in Chicago and I've never seen that first burger.

George is just way, way, way better at this than Alvin.

Who else had an Alvin ad beforehand?

Delicious programming! Loving your work @firstwefeast 👌

Love these episodes with George!

I'm always confused by so-called burger purists insisting that ketchup doesn't belong on a burger because it masks the flavor of the meat and then turning around and putting pickles, raw onions, and mustard, three of the sharpest and most overbearing ingredients I can think of, on the burger.

I really want George Motz to make his own dream/perfect burger

Juicy Lucy is pretty popular in the UK. They do one at the local butcher with blue cheese.

Truly awesome episode. Thanks.

I never thought I needed this until now. This is having me crave burgers at 8 am and that’s perfectly okay with me

Just went to Matt's Bar in Minneapolis last week for an original Juicy Lucy!

I didn't know that Isaac Asimov still alive and cook delicious burgers too.

Shoutout my St. Louis homies 💯 carls drive in has been here for like 60 years now shit is fire as hell

So can we just get Babish and George hosting this show from now on?
