I don't know if I'd go that far. He has a GH3. He's 2 generations behind. It's better than like a Canon 70D or something but if he were to upgrade to the GH5, the quality would be much much much higher. He has the same lens as me, but my camera is triple the price nearly(it used to be $2k+, now it's about double).
@@rayray9301 Nahh fam that sandwich looks nice af id dust that in a minute and be full for 3 days while im out but eatin greasy fries with ur meal is just askin for problems
Ray Ray lol I know right. Dude is to negative. No one ever said that they wanted to eat french fries with every meal. I would add a bag of platanito chips with that sandwich. Much love to all!
I dont know why so much hate. Its a hood sandwich, ive had them before..does not taste like a burger. It taste different because of cooking method maybe, but its damn good.
Yeah, I think it tastes different because of the cheese to meat ratio. It's just like the way pulled pork or chicken tastes better than a chicken breast or a pork chop. The seasoning to meat surface area ratio is different and it's just better.
It’s a chopped low grade hamburger with cheese, mayo on grill pressed roll. Yea that would taste good especially when hungry but it doesn’t compare to shaved prime rib cheesesteak from philly.
Philly cheese steak is good but this is our sandwich it's been around for over 15 year's just wasn't on the menu you had to know about it the Arabs make it for themselves and some of the corner boys noticed and tried it then they said Yoo ock put cheese on that shit son
Chopped Cheese is absolutely delicious. Growing up in NJ we had something called a cheeseburger sub that had similar ingredients & construction. Chopped Cheese is definitely next level though! I love a good Philly Cheesesteak but sometimes a Chopped Cheese just hits the spot!
One thing I like about your channel that’s different from others is that you actually eat the food and enjoy it while giving your opinion, as opposed to taking one to two bites. Glad to be a sub 😍
I found your channel yesterday and have watching ever since. I started with many of your Philly Cheesesteaks videos and am now moving around to other foods. I don’t think I’ve ever seen people enjoy for as much as you and your friends. Now, you’ll find this interesting………I’m not even a big eater and love your channel. Wonderful!
I’m from philly and my mans is from NY. We went up to NY and he told the Arab bul to make me a chopped cheese...smfh that jawn was good af. But you can’t compare it to a cheesesteak. Two different beasts
If you toast the bread on your cheesesteak enough, then that’s basically a chopped cheese........ain’t no different nothing, if you put lettuce and tomato then that’s basically a cheesesteak hoagie......come on y’all stop 🧢
The crunch on that first bite was amazing. It looks delicious. I don't see myself going all the way to Harlem for this so I'm just gonna have to attempt to make one one day.
Bro just go to your nearest deli and instruct them how to make it its a chopped up burger patties with cooked onions and green peppers ketchup and mayo.. Im from harlem nyc lol so im advising u to instruct them i couldnt live without my chop cheese.. And dont forget too toast the bread.. Lettuce and tamatoes if wanted even a little vinegar....... Im going to the store lmaoo
Jersey spots make these also actually close to u in philly in camden they make em on fairview st. but they make these in any hood in jersey lol the more dangerous the better the sandwich 🥪 🤣
Malek Whitlow yea thats whats good lol Originally from harlem but lived directly across the bridge whole life basically in Englewood and spots out here make em just as good lol i guess cuz we like 10 mins from nyc
I got a Chopped Cheese from Hajji's while in NYC this Summer. I never had anauthentic cheesesteak but if a cheesesteak tastes better than a chopped cheese, it will have to be the greatest thing in the world.
@@dada402 go to philly. They are better I have had both, in both of the sandwiches home towns. Chopped cheese is good. But a true philly cant be touched
Appreciate you for letting folks know about our lil take on a good sandwich. Not a Philly cheesesteak but it’s a good and affordable look that’ll get you through a drunk night or if you ain’t got it,hard times. But everyone on this joint entitled to their own opinion🤷🏽♂️come to The Bronx, wild good food spots for you family 💪🏽
As someone COMPLETELY impartial, being from Canada and having tried both OG philly cheeses and chopped cheese, chopped cheese takes the cake. Sometimes shit that originates from ghetto eating is just fire.
@ Chris - Cheesesteaks are ghetto food too! 🤣 To MR’s point below, a true Philly uses shaved ribeye. It started as an inexpensive meal for a working man back when men actually went to work 😂
I’m from the south (Alabama) I went to visit NYC for a month and when I tell y’all the bodega had the best breakfast sandwiches I’ve ever had. I ate there every morning.
@@jeronwhite3113 I want trying to be mean but I went to school in the South. They’re sandwiches are terrible, there are no deli’s, it’s a low bar. You can get better breakfast sandwiches from deli’s in or around the NYC area as opposed to Bodega.
Philly papi store “ Yo pap let me get a chopped cheese burger on a long roll with salt , pepper , ketchup , mayo lettuce , onions , & sweet peppers. - Papi - “Ta bien Pa “ then cash out with a days soda 💸
People used to stay away from bodegas like food trucks, now look at how that turned out. When I worked In nyc, we use to hit all the deli”s, not the most expensive beef or cheese, but tasty, and you get fast service and they like their jobs
Us Cats in Brooklyn.. Finesse our Chop Cheese..onions.. Green peppers.. A lil goya sazon.. Lil salt.. Pepper.. Beef bacon.. Pickles.. And shit.. His looks plain..😂😂😂
The way you eat the sandwich man makes me hungry lol I gotta try this and also I love your channel you are the best for food reviews in the entire country
Stand up NY we got haters hating on our chopped cheese, we are not only known for pizza dimwits, we also have our beef patties with cheese and cocoa bread lol figure that one out
@IWalkAlone247 dummy suck on a chopped cheese, I'm talking about food you're on a whole entire subject, you're a joke like your thought process now again figure that one out
@@miz215b7 Chopped cheese is more like its own thing, due to how crispy the meat chunks get. I don’t really care for cheeseburgers, but the chop cheese just hits different.
Mmmm..someone said banh mi sandwiches...thise are bomb if made with REAL baguette bread...not the regular hero breads ..sadly most spots use those..but there a few gems around NY make it real deal
Just went there Monday hajjis.. Harlem first time. Ate one in the store then asked for one to bring back to Connecticut.. Walked down the street dudes Infront the store showed mad love cuz I was from Connecticut (they read my jacket) Taste similar to cheese steak. It was good lol . Harlem luv .definitely will be back
🐹 .his videos always look like they about to turn into a rap song....i be waiting for him to bite into a sub..with two back up dancers.🤸🤸...popping and locking and eating french fries in the background.. 🐹...i love it.
YO JL IM DOWN HERE IN THE ATL AND IM A FAN OF YOUR VIDEOS. JUST WANTED TO SAY I SEE YOUR GROWTH FROM THIS VIDEO AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YR TO THE WAY YOUR DOING THEM NOW AT THE END OF THE YR. CONGRATS FAM. I LOVE HOW YOUR SUPPORTING AND BRINGING XTRA BIZ TO YOUR COMMUNITIES SMALL UNKOWNS.
Oh yeah! I’m born and raised in Philly but I’m 65 now and down the shore but I know what all the Philadelphia cheese steaks or like but I like the look of that sandwich. Yum Yum I can hear that bite of that bread I can imagine what that bread toaster machine just made that bread like. Just that right heat versus that little crunch with the flavor and That sandwich sure is an original wish you were closer I’d go and get one. looks fantastic! Comparing it to a Philly cheesesteak. My opinion from watching is they can go head to head with a two different sandwiches but so close as a speciality. each a masterpiece.
I get it with 3 eggs scrambled and folded on top, on a buttered roll or hero. Tomatoes and onions cooked up with the burger meat...fuck mayo there's enough flavor in the bread from the grease and butter. Add Mozzarella and Pepper Jack. No need for lettuce. Try that and holla back.
Wait... If he's right then he just blew my mind and I'm from NYC fuck outta here. If I can get that shit on a potato roll toasted with butter I'm set for life
I’m a life long New Yorker born and raised. I don’t eat chopped cheese often at all but I did some research and went to the same spot about a year ago and it was pretty good. It’s like drunk late night food though not everyday food lolz
That is a corner store. Bodegas are ran by Puerto Ricans. And the bodegas you get actual meat they make sandwiches and sell all kind of produce. Bodegas have all kind of Caribbean seasoning. back in the 80s they used to have seasoning brands that the supermarkets never had. Also yes they have a cat most of them did.
Now you took me way back. I came from New York grew up there moved to Philadelphia and I’m now here in Florida. I’m always watching the PA locations and wishing I knew about them before I moved. But now you took me back to my original birth place. Yes, you can’t give bodegas their props. We had some great ones and this one looks like one.
So some New Yorker went into a Harlem bodega one night looking for a Cheesesteak .... so a dude found some burgers and chopped them up into a Cheesesteak-like sandwich
Nothing is better than a Philly CheeseSteak if you know where to get them😜 better yet do you know how to order them😁 Nothing is better than a Homemade Chicken CheeseSteak with the works❤
I'm 59! And I never heard of a "chopped cheese sandwich "! Until this week, I don't know did other You-Tubers see this video or what, but I have seen a few people making this sandwiches this week! Give me a Philly cheesesteak, I'm happy or a double cheeseburger!🙏🏻❤
@@kody7149 Jackson Heights! Also, try the Halal cart on Steinway street and 34th Ave in Astoria. Trust me, each platter is under $10 and the quality and ingredients are unparalleled. It's a big blue truck now, upgraded from a cart a while back.
There’s always cheap food in NY just go to the bodega Beef patty + Arizona= $2.50 Beef patty with coco bread + Arizona= $4.00 Bacon egg and cheese + Arizona= $4.50 Food Platter + Arizona= $6.00 Chop cheese + Arizona= $6.00 The bodega be coming in clutch when you don’t have that much bread
Thank you for telling us the price🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 I’m sitting here thinking like how much?! This my first video of yours I stumbled across but I fasho just subscribed😂💯 yassss and add them peppers I’m literally typing and watching the video and you just keep answering all the questions I wanna ask💯
Ffs. I ate this. I’m from Philly. It’s delicious. Amazing. But it’s different. Honestly. Best thing in philly is hot roast pork. Well done Harlem. You did it right.
I aint gonna hold you I actually thought it originated from tha Bronx word is bond. Chop Cheese Con Todo that's tha Sugar Honeymustard Ice Tea Rite Hear!!!
YOOOOO!!! I’m from Cali & we’ve been eating fake ass Philly cheese’s our whole lives....until I slid to Max’s in Philadelphia a few years ago. SHAAAATT!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 But now u telling me this is better than a Philly Cheese!!! Ok ok I gotta slide to NY to get on one. Yea u just won another subscriber! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I'm from philly but live in NYC lol yes I had both a few times but dont get me wrong chopped cheese is good but tbh it's just a chopped up cheeseburger
I’m from Morningside Heights but worked on 120th nd 3rd for 6 years. Ordering Chopped Cheeses for lunch at least once a week for 6 years. Now I live on Fairmount, Philly last 2 years. The chopped cheese is a great sandwich but it’s just a burger on a different bread. That’s it. A cheese steak from a good spot w that good steak is on another level. Truth.
Real deal New Yorkers aren't fooled by this. It's a damned burger with different bread. Chopped cheese is legitimately good. But so is just about anything from a good Bodega. It won't change your life. lol
Philly is - KING - and always will be you better ask somebody about the mom and pop spots. Philly has no competition they try to compare and copy but never will be - KING - shout out NY though.
I heard that bite from the panini pressed bread and knew it was gonna be great. Bodegas giving us gems. From Jersey and putting this on the to do list. Great vid, cool music.
It's crazy...I could've been rich...I been making these in my house since I was a kid...we did it to stretch the ground beef...struggle burgers...they turn our struggle into millions smh
