In 1957, when McDonald’s was doubling the number of restaurants it opened every year, a little-known Florida start-up called Insta-Burger was on the brink of bankruptcy and fighting to keep its doors open. However, this failing business would later become the global fast food empire Burger King, making tens of billions of dollars a year, and operating in over 100 countries around the world. The truth of how they achieved this is crazy, and involves smashing up their own equipment with a hatchet. But, whilst Burger King is undeniably an inspiring underdog entrepreneurial success story, there’s also a dark twist. Because the secret to Burger King’s success… was stolen. In this story of Burger king, we’ll see how Burger King became successful, the company’s successes and failures, and lots more fascinating details about the history of Burger King.
Burger King started out as 1 single store called ‘Insta-Burger’, and it was failing horribly. This video is a journey through BK’s crazy history, and how it became a fast food empire (thanks to smashing up their equipment, stealing ideas, and making ridiculous financial decisions). Welcome to the INSANE Story of Burger by MagnatesMedia (business mini movies / business documentaries).
NOTE: Since photos of the younger versions of Burger King’s founders were not available, AI mockups of how they might have looked have been used in some parts of the story.

You missed one problem they had, when Pillsbury took over they also stopped the flame broiling on demand. In the beginning they cooked the meat as it was needed for burgers, but they later went to cooking mass amount of burger patties and then microwaving the the whole sandwich when it was completed to warm it back up... that was when it started losing customers because microwaving a burger tastes like shit.

Where I grew up they were still fresh broiled in the 70's and switched to microwaves in the early 80's... but when I went to college in another state they still have fresh broiled until about 1991. It was horrible when they did it, and at some of them you could say don't microwave it and you would get one without the microwave but they were generally only warm meat patties and never hot... but better than the microwaved crap.

In 1970 I took my soon to be wife, who hated hamburgers, to Burger King. They cooked the burgers with the flame broiler reimagined using gas. My wife, changed her mind about burgers, at least about those Whoppers. She thought them the best she'd ever had, me too. For us, Burger King was NOT broken. But like KFC to Dairy Queen and many others, the creative originators sold out for a big corporate payday. Soon Burger King was using the MacDonald's model and the food became more corporate blah, you paid more to get less. The food, now 53 years later, is for us, inedible. Sad story retold.

I used to work in a Burger King as a teen in the 90s. I used to feed those Insta machines (I didn't know they had them from the start, or that's what they were called), feeding frozen patties into it's fire mouth, so when I saw a photo of it, it triggered all the emotional damage of the burns of always accidentally touching it while feeding it. Everyone had burns when they worked that station. Oh those were the days. Btw, their flame grilled burgers are better than McDs. Also, this is another great story, and video production. I love to learn things from different angles, for no reason other than curiosity, then the knowledge surfaces much later, and for a solution I'm working on. Thanks mate for the insights, and for triggering my InstaFeeding days

I worked at Burger King in the 80s they had a flame boiler then. They premade the burgers and then reheated in a microwave! I mostly worked in the front and had to announce the orders over a microphone. When it was slow, I imagined me singing the theme song…have your way! So I sang over the microphone to the staff in the back” hold the pickles hold lettuce, special order don’t upset us…have it your way! I got fired for that! I never ate at another Burger King after that! Besides cheating by using a microwave to reheat the food! Gross!

Burger King poached fast food expert Don Smith from McDonalds in the mid 70's. He pulled the company from going under. He made the front page of Fortune Magazine back in 1980 for getting the company out of the hole. He started with Mc Donalds as a teen flipping burgers. Don was my former neighbor in Greenwich , Connecticut. He then went on to run Friendlys Restaurants based out of Boston

🤯 *Here in Adelaide South Australia, there used to be a small mum & dad store called "Burger King". So, all the Burger Kings in Australia had to change their name to "Hungry Jack's" after a court decision that mandated them to not violate the already established copyright of the small mum & dad "Burger King" shop. The massive corporate giant had to follow the court orders in Australia and change their name or risk being totally removed as a whole from the sunburned country! We in Adelaide had the very first Hungry Jack's long before all other cities in Australia had to change also to that name, as the small mum & dad shop was located here in Adelaide. So we had Hungry Jack's even in the early 80s, while all other cities in Australia had Burger King. That was up until the infamous court case in 2001!* 😮

Hey Magnates, Love the videos as always, But Im from Quebec, and I would love to see a video about how protective the Quebec economy is, how the goverment has multiple monopolies, how certain companies only really thrive in the Quebec's industry (like Bombardier of BRP) or the difficulties for certain companies to come into the Quebec market (Often due to the language barrier or the goverment fees). I know that there are multiple places that have way more strict rules (like China) but my province is so close to the USA and is very often overlooked as being a place similar as the rest of North America.

Quite frankly, no fast food burger is really that good. It's just they cost less and are relatively more convenient to get. I have not bought a fast food burger in several decades because after experimenting for a few years, I got the process and taste just the way I want and like. And my burgers are flame broiled, too; started out using one of those Japanese cast iron hibachi grill that I got dirty cheap in Chinatown, and eventually graduated to a portable propane gas grill that I can grill anywhere - camping, backyard, and indoors, too.

I worked for Burger King for a few years. The new “flame broiler” is essentially the same as the original. It’s a little less problematic but marginally. It’s a horribly dirty and complex machine that requires its sum-odd 30 different large parts to be taken off and individually scrubbed clean every single day. Obviously in this industry your average worker in most areas is a very unsavory, careless, immature and or lazy person so the machine ends up not getting cleaned everyday. Actually in my experience most people responsible for the machine would only wipe down or clean the tray on the outside that catches the Pattie’s when they fall out of the side because it’s the only part that can be seen at first glance. Since it’s obviously not getting cleaned regularly this causes the Pattie’s to get cooked differently in each machine as well as being very dangerous and prone to catching fire inside pieces it’s not suppose to. Although it is rare and mostly do to poor/no cleaning the machine still does break down and abruptly stops business until it can be fixed, which does happen with a stove but much less and you always have at least a backup if not multiple backups to continue business. I could go further into the company but just in general it’s mediocre imitation of a successful model.

I lived in Jacksonville when one of the first BK opened. They bragged that they "grilled" their burgers. This was a kind of grill that moved, and when they got busy they sped it up. This left many of their burgers still raw and even frozen in the middle. SO I did not go back for years, it was really disgusting.

You did a fantastic job narrating and assembling the audio visual effects. The quality content mode very nice. Do you remember weird Al Yonkovic and the Whopper connection? He was like 6 ft 5 in tall something like that but he had enormous hands. Back in the 80s he did one of those parody videos. The Whopper hamburger was so huge, and even look big in his hands. Nowadays. No real Whopper as well as no real Big Mac. How often they clean their broilers have a large impact on the quality of their hamburgers 🍔. Just like how often Burger King changes the oil in their friars have a great impact on their french fries and chicken products. The amount of time in between the changing of the oil and complaining of the boilers vary widely. More important the amount of product that is produced between each cleaning and oil change varies widely. One restaurant that when I was in the area I would swing by and eat. The average fry oil change was three times as often as other restaurants would do within Burger King 👑. But then the franchise got a new set of owners for this restaurant location. They look at the numbers and fired the management team because they refused to reduce the number of cleaning and oil changes. Quality immediately declined. But it is still better than what the average restaurant a Burger King 👑 produces. I no longer go out of my way there. Besides economic pressures have forced them to shrink the product while increasing the price. Is it better than what McDonald's offer? Horse is overall! Asian saying very much. The narrator of this episode should look into doing something similar with Whataburger. Yes it's Amore regional restaurant within the United States but it is a fantastic quality above any other fast-food hamburger joint. When they get it right! But 51% given controlling interest was purchased by a financial investment company. Certain qualities have decreased overall and they are rapidly expanding the markets. It just isn't working as well for the restaurant chain, compared to when the family had complete control. They are struggling and they are actually a Megabucks to Texas management personnel who are willing to relocate in other states hundreds and hundreds of miles away from their home. After all the state of Texas the best quality overall compared to other states. But there is a number of shiny stars in other states. It is definitely a great lesson and economies of scales versus quality of product. In short what I'm saying is that Whataburger gets it right there shouldn't be another hamburger restaurant within 20 miles of it.

In the mid 2000's they changed to a steam holder for the patties so they could stock up on cooked patties for the lunch rush. The manager said it kept them juicy, I personally was not impressed. [I was just a customer] From that point the quality of the food has gone down hill. A Whopper used to be good, then they also started putting sandbagged patties on top of the lower bun and then putting it in the microwave. You ended up with a soggy lower bun, warm patty and an ice-cold top bun. I don't do fast food anymore except for when I am on a long drive and away from home for an extended period on those trips. I had just gotten through a grueling 600 mile drive to the last stop going up the hill to my house in the evening. I didn't feel like cooking when I got home being tires, so I stopped at micky D's to get a BigMac combo. I got to the pick up window and the cashier said $10 [$9.87] and I told her that I didn't upsize anything and she told me that was the correct price and my jaw dropped. $10 for a plain BigMac combo and the food isn't that good anyway. They have rammed the price up so much that I won't go back unless I am willing to pay the price or if there is an advertised deal I am willing to pay for. Fast food for sit-down restaurant prices.

It's sad, that way back in 1995 I discovered that businessmen refer to not making as much money as they expected to, as 'losing money'. This was after the insurance companies in New Jersey kept telling the public that they 'lost money' every year, but were extremely profitable. See, they expected to make two billion dollars every year, but were 'only' making $1.8 billion. So they managed to use this farce to get the legislators to approve raising insurance premiums every year, enriching the corporate executives and profits for shareholders, while sucking the public dry. All by lying. An nothing has changed, so I always view businessmen who claim that they are losing money, while staying in business year after year, and living in mansions and driving expensive cars, as well as expanding their business.

Burger King was wiped out by it's employees. During my youth, this restaurant pumped out burgers. By the 21st century the workers had become slow and lethargic serving customers one at a time and often taking 10 minutes to make a Whopper. They would drag traffic cones across the drive up to keep customers from overwhelming them . They were closing locations for lack of sales and didn't know why. Other chains like Hardees were having similar issues. People had lost the ability to move quickly. Enter 2025 and the fast food robot employee comes in to finally turn things around......Stay Tuned...

If some executives are reading this, let me tell you the most important thing. Always have good quality and freshness . If a person ever experiences rotten food , like I have many times, I am never going to go there again- lost for life. Also the managers have to realize so much is spent on advertising , and they should please the customer by giving them free food - not be harsh and stingy. Repeat business is worth much more than a simple item. That way the customer will buy much more repeatedly .

Macdonald's has raised their prices so high in past years, it's no longer a cheap fast food place, they have priced themselves out of competition with other places who can still give you more food for the money. No longer burger fries and drink below 10 spot, it's inflation is what they call it, and my son worked there, and the pay they have to pay over minimum wage to get workers is now the reason they said they raised prices

In the last 6 years, my each and every experience at BK was bad. It seems like BK threw the standard out the door. Employees must be at no more than a maximum of kindergarten level of communication skills, apathetic, and under the influence of something. If your order requires the staff to make it fresh they'll probably pretend you arent there.

Actually this is not how it happened. My mom invented the final Whopper configuration. The original Whopper was only meat with option of cheese. My mom ordered it with lettuce, tomato, and Miracle Whip salad dressing. The people in line heard her order it like that then everybody wanted it with lettuce, tomato, and Miracle Whip. Later BK changed the Miracle Whip to Hellman's mayonnaise. This all took place in 1962 on 7TH Avenue in Miami where basically fast food was born. I grew up on 12 th Avenue. Later Harland Sander's daughter opened the first KFC take-out on the corner of 7th Avenue and Gratiny road. She used Sander's chicken recipe but his idea to franchise his chicken through sit-down restaurants flopped. What made her KFC big was she put the left over chicken into the gravy but didn't charge for it rather than throw the day-old chicken out. For less than a dollar, you could buy a hot delicious meal of the chicken studded gravy and 6 Parker house dinner rolls. There were other places on 7th Avenue that never became chains like Latta's for example. The 1960s were a very bright and inspirational time in America, especially in Miami. Alfred Herman Schrader

The gas flame grilled burger was always best at the end of the day as all the falvour was seared inti the broiler from all the fat dripping down while cooking allll day long lol. Sounds gross but damn, if you can get a fresh grilled hot patty on a well made burger your realise.
