@@nitayhillel5979 I'm not a native English speaker, but his way of speaking is perfectly understandable to me. Much better then some native speakers especially with american accent. I don't see what he should hide
To bad he has chosen to join a company and help the destruction of independent content creators on CZcams. It's as if pewdiepie started making videos for t-series. I will not support people trying to turn CZcams into cable tv.
Geez man calm down, and just because he’s on eater doesn’t mean he has sold out to the corporate overlords or anything. I mean, he was on Jamie Oliver back in 2015, which I believe was even before 100k.
This was a lot of fun to watch! I've seen Alex cross-over on other shows, and this was great! Mark from Shake Shack seemed like a really nice guy...someone who is clearly a master of his craft, but who is appreciative of Alex's final product, while still offering considered criticism.
takeaways: -a little lighter on the pickle juice so the sauce is thicker and less tangy - dont add "two shots" of pickle juice (like the lady added "two shots" of vodka) -new richer beef blend -a more american (?) cheese
Taking a recepie from someone who has been perfecting it for years and trying to recreate it in so little time is almost impossible. So well done Frenchie! I have certainly learnt a few things from this episode!!! Cheers!
Brisket & rib eye combo. No chuck since the fat in it tends to be odorous. You can add a little bit of rump for firmness & flavour. At home I like to do 100% rib eye (scotch fillet). For seasoning, use something like steak seasoning, but only on the outside
Great job Alex. Now that you're back in France and like to recreate burger sauces, please try the one from the Giant in the Quick fast foods. Love this sauce.
No one here thinks that 😂 . We do have Smashburger here as well and used to have Steak n’ Shake until recently. The average New Yorker is not Eater or Munchies or Food Insider, etc; Shake Shack is just another burger joint to us.
Well done Alex, anyway French butter makes everything taste better...big fan of shake shack when in the US, they even have a menu for my dog when we are at our LA home...great work we should start up Alex Burger Shack in Paris, I will back that project.
Alex - for the grind, use a Cuisinart for a coarser chop (rather than a grind) and partially freeze the meat chunks. This will preserve the beefiness and the fat content.
ALEX! I have an idea for you and the production to use in upcoming episodes! Following the professional's review of your work, show them (off camera) what YOU did step by step like you show us in the video, and have them give a 0-100 scale rating for how CLOSE you got to the original. It'll help us (and you) learn from previous mistakes, and still not require any secret-divulgement!
Easy, he went from an independent content creator to someone helping with the destruction of youtube. Helping turn youtube into cable TV is something I can easily hate on. Next pewdiepie will be making videos for t-series.
Closest thing we got to Shake Shack in Alaska is Smash Burger. Smash Burger is pretty good but the single patty cheeseburger is $8 for just the burger and it's tiny. I like to eat and they want a tip so I end up spending $25 or $30 when I go there.
Eater is great and Alex is great. Alex is the quintessential French food nerd with a touch of added engineering nerd. If you haven't already checked out his channel, do it now.
The musts for every burger: 1. A fat to bind it together, whether it be cheese, mayo, or something else. 2. Something pickled. Everything else is optional, but no burger gets made in my house without those two things, and the Smoke Shack delivers on both.
creasing when the marketing/PR dude goes into full Corporate Visibility Mode at the end: "It's just all about fresh, delicious [Shake ShackTM] beef, man!"
I feel there should have been more focus on the bun? That mega soft ‘clamshell’ (potato?) bun is what defines shake shack for me. Would’ve been cool to hear them talk about that, I have no idea where to get those buns.
Gotta do the thanking again, Alex! He came all the way out to you, critiqued, gave insight, offered helpful opinions, etc... Close out the vid next time with some etiquette. That's my two cents.
Watching Alex not cooking in his Le Studio seems a bit off for me
10:22 Alex cooking using the saddest and most depressing cheese seemed off as well.
@@Jooolse could be sponsored?
Alex and Eater? Not to mention shake shack! I think yes.
Who’s here is thinking about Carla being the first manager and worked there? Lol
Yup: czcams.com/video/mpnshdmtE2Y/video.html
First thing I thought of.
Well she did cross my mind
🙋🏾♂️
...and wondering what the password is to that shack sauce recipe is!
I've watched Alex for a long time and I just realized his french accent is thick but his english grammar is so good.
As a French myself, I can tell he's definitely exaggerating his accent on purpose to add to his character. He's pretty damn smart :)
@@Aozoraa33 that's true. He didn't have such accent in his first videos
@@oligamilodesu There's the possibilty he tried to hide his true accent in his first videos in order to be more understandable.

Not really....
alex is such a good content creator in my eyes. and he seems like a really nice dude

I loved when Alex said 'oui wee' at the beginning when he met the creator, it made him sound like he was really excited weeeee
[eats 3 different cuts of beef]
You can really taste the beefy flavour
He realized he was not going to get the real shake shack sauce recipe.
Alex is no Chris Morocco, but he isn't bad.
recoil53 we need him for this he would destroy !
@@codclips-f2b That should be his next series - Chris Morocco reverse engineers popular fast food.
@@recoil53 have you put this on the BA channel? if not is it okay for me to put this in the BA comment section?
@@rikaze Go ahead, I haven't said it yet.
It's the perfect savory counterpart to Claire's series.
This feels like a bonus episode. Makes me so happy
So this is one of the reasons we haven’t seen as many “Alex” videos as usual. Loved this one. Well done everyone
I haven't even finished and this may be my favorite CZcams video ever.
"Ah yes, the beef is made of beef"
This was a lot of fun to watch! I've seen Alex cross-over on other shows, and this was great! Mark from Shake Shack seemed like a really nice guy...someone who is clearly a master of his craft, but who is appreciative of Alex's final product, while still offering considered criticism.

I'm trying this out, I purchased boarshead american slices - will report back
T-diddy did you do it?
They use Schreiber American cheese. (Former Shack Employee)
@@sk8erin8er Maybe he did get the recipe but Shake shack got to his location...poor soul!
@@t-diddy1268 how did it turn out? What blend did you use in the end?

Ate Shake Shack yesterday in Larkspur, CA. Can't wait for the new one to open in the Marina!!!
Go on Alex We know that *YOU CAN DO IT* ....👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Background music gets zero ! Its not matching Alex’s rhythm
Wassef Fattal it’s so loud and distracting!

Oh wow, I walk by that shake shack every day and never knew it was the original, that's really cool!
I am a simple man - I see that shake shack boy, I smash that like button fast enough to break the sound barrier, oh burger daddy~
Great job Alex. Now that you're back in France and like to recreate burger sauces, please try the one from the Giant in the Quick fast foods. Love this sauce.
Not familiar with Alex's work prior to this, but he had me from his description of the sirloin flavour as "super-enjoyable".
EframeGadsby been watching his channel for years. It’s good. Cooking with a touch of “maker”
Alex amazing video! But you leave me with just one question; how many minutes do you „grill“ the meat on each side?
I love your stuff Alex! Your process! I can offer a few tips if you’d like. I’ve been doing this method for years.
I love that Alex brought his own knife with him! Fun at the airport...
Midwesterners when they hear people act like Shake Shack invented or is the pinnacle of smash burgers and the "shack" sauce: "Ope"
The founder is very open about the fact that Shake Shack is inspired by the burgers he ate as a kid in St. Louis
Danny Meyer has stated Steak n' Shake as the influence for Shake Shack! Love Steak n' Shake (when done right)
I know right..🤦🏽♂️
No one here thinks that 😂 . We do have Smashburger here as well and used to have Steak n’ Shake until recently. The average New Yorker is not Eater or Munchies or Food Insider, etc; Shake Shack is just another burger joint to us.
@@punkyagogo didn't say you or New Yorkers, now did I? Said "people that act like". If you aint one of those people then it don't apply to you
Butter was the funniest part. Guy's face was priceless.
Oh god, Alex on Eater, making us proud :D
So proud he is helping destroy the independent content creators on this platform and helping it become cable tv.
Sad day
Must be the less arrogant frenchman on this planet, very nice guy and great content !
Yesssssssssssssssssssss. More Alex please!
Best crossover ever!
Well done Alex, anyway French butter makes everything taste better...big fan of shake shack when in the US, they even have a menu for my dog when we are at our LA home...great work we should start up Alex Burger Shack in Paris, I will back that project.
Wait what? A menu for your dog? That's new to me! Are there many options for your dog?
Night_Rose_94 they have a bag of dog biscuits at the Hollywood location.
You know you can do French butter at home, here in France many people do it, you just need fresh milk and the good tool basically. ;)
That subtle yt comment flex
Saw the thumbnail and was like, "Alex? On Eater? Sure!"
Alex - for the grind, use a Cuisinart for a coarser chop (rather than a grind) and partially freeze the meat chunks. This will preserve the beefiness and the fat content.
In other words... Dammit this frenchman is so much better than ShakeShack🤣
Good Job... Learn some nice stuff
I live for his accent 😂😂😂😂💗
Need more of these.
More of these please!
This is a French guy who’s been told what French people sound like when they say “focus”
Cool episode without bad behaviour! ♡
ALEX!
I have an idea for you and the production to use in upcoming episodes!

This feels like a long Shake Shack advertisement.
Surprised he didn't made a machine to create burgers, lmao
I mean how can u not love this guy!!!!
Easy, he went from an independent content creator to someone helping with the destruction of youtube.
Helping turn youtube into cable TV is something I can easily hate on.
Next pewdiepie will be making videos for t-series.
Due to the nature of CZcams recommended I thought this was years ago lmaooooo, didn't realize it's just a few weeks old
Closest thing we got to Shake Shack in Alaska is Smash Burger. Smash Burger is pretty good but the single patty cheeseburger is $8 for just the burger and it's tiny. I like to eat and they want a tip so I end up spending $25 or $30 when I go there.
someone might consider this overthink, but I appreciate science. Alex is all about food science
I wish we got Alex on Prime Time.
Excellent video
You smashed it Alex!
Great choice to bring Alex on!
Yeah, destroying independent content creators with big company's and making it into cable TV is so great.
Smfh
I was waiting for you to try the Martin`s breads recipe
Hi alex. I hope ur fine. Do you suggest to grind the meet once or twice? And what about the thickness of a burger? Does it influence the taste?
I didn't know that Alex was on this channel too!
Eater is great and Alex is great. Alex is the quintessential French food nerd with a touch of added engineering nerd. If you haven't already checked out his channel, do it now.
yeSsSss more collabs with alex, eater!!!
I would listen to Alex read Proust. Seriously, why doesn't this have a million views?
Oh my forking god
that looks really good
Sick crossover
Yes!
great collab, love alex :)
Merci 🙏
Wow Alex on Eater. It's a crossover in my subscriptions!
Next pewdiepie will be making videos for t-series.
This is just another step in the destruction of individual content creators by big corporations.
An iconic shake shack burger 🍔 is the smoke shack burger
Way to go, Alex! 👍
He is not a food geek. He is the food mad scientist
When your waiting for alex to upload a video but you get a video on another channel
I’m here for this video and I’m swooning over your accent.
You should check out his channel
You have a vanmoof electric bike man that's cheating :D
Omg I love alex 😭💖
The musts for every burger: 1. A fat to bind it together, whether it be cheese, mayo, or something else. 2. Something pickled. Everything else is optional, but no burger gets made in my house without those two things, and the Smoke Shack delivers on both.
I just had a Shack Stack today... xD
Haha, Alex meets Chuck Norris. Going to make a burger now...got hungry..
This brave man parks his bike on the street
Wondering how long the meat selection portion of this 'lab' took.... lol
creasing when the marketing/PR dude goes into full Corporate Visibility Mode at the end: "It's just all about fresh, delicious [Shake ShackTM] beef, man!"
"the power of freshly ground beef" lmao nice brief my broh
Spread it like ground beef on a hot flat surface!! Cheers.
Smash that like beef button.
Plot twist: He actually nailed the flavour but Mark didn't tell him so the secret is still safe.
I was pretty sure it came out a long time ago that Shake Shack's burgers were 50% brisket and 50% chuck.
I’ve heard sirloin banded around quite a lot.
Watching a French chef make a shake burger … so unreal
Awesome vid, but color correction on it was unnecessary
Nice kitchen.
well played Alex :)
Five Guys burgers are just a mix of chuck and sirloin.
I love the frustrated French noises😂
Alex: sniffs burger*
Alex: beef flavor!
Yes that makes sense. Bring the French guy from French to recreate a very American staple.
I live in brooklyn and still never had one
Best burger. Killin' In n Out
I think I saw that kitchen in the breath of wild episode of unraveled on polygon
a PINCH of onion/garlic for that much sauce u CRASI
I feel there should have been more focus on the bun? That mega soft ‘clamshell’ (potato?) bun is what defines shake shack for me. Would’ve been cool to hear them talk about that, I have no idea where to get those buns.
Martin’s potato buns. Available at just about every major grocery store in the New England/Northeast area.
From my own experience, I’ve seen that mayo turns very liquid-y when mixing in additional vinegar.
"WOW BEEF FLAVOR!" ...... "yes."
killing it alex
La musique à partir de 3:15 svp😘😜?
Gotta do the thanking again, Alex! He came all the way out to you, critiqued, gave insight, offered helpful opinions, etc... Close out the vid next time with some etiquette. That's my two cents.
tastes 3 cuts of beef
says they have a beefy flavour
