    I was sent a charcoal lighting product to review called WoolyWood, which is made from wood and is 100% all natural. I was a little skeptical, as I'm really not a fan of the compressed wood starters. I have to tell you that this stuff has just made it to my arsenal. Lived up to every claim!

    Greg I have to be honest with you. This looks 100x better than BK. You did it perfect. It looked like BK advertising. Awesome!!!

    This guy and this channel are pretty damn strong. I kinda tend to refuse giving food channels likes or follows unless they really deserve it... but this guy kinda just like has the something special without being spectacular imo. He just got it the right way for me.

    The whopper is just a great classic burger that has lasted for decades. Solid burger that doesn't try to do anything different but is very satisfying to eat.

    It’s the tomato and Mayo that makes a Whopper a Whopper. The tomato just does everything to the burger. There is no fancy tricks, just basically a garden salad on a burger with some mayonnaise.

  • @jamshidbastani
    @jamshidbastani Před 2 lety +2

    For the U.S. style "BK Whopper" mix in a few drops of Chinese cooking wine and liquid smoke with the patty before cooking. I've experimented with many different ingredients, but this one hits the same notes with even richer flavors!

  • @ncg8224
    @ncg8224 Před 4 lety

    Hi worker at BK. You've got everything correct.
    As a worker I can guarantee everything else is fresh except for the meat.
    Now for those wondering why the burgers don't look like his is because most of our workers rush. We only are given under a minute to get an order done which means toasting the buns, assembly and wrapping. Now its more difficult if it's on a whopper Wednesday which is considered payday for us BK workers and also the busiest time of the week.
    A life hack to this is to order heavy all. This will give you a very identical version to the ads and Greg's video.

  • @sharoncody6061
    @sharoncody6061 Před 7 lety

    the original burger king whoppers in the early 1960's were cooked over an open flame fire. while driving down the road, the smell of the burgers being grilled would make you forget about dinner plans and you would stop, go in, and buy one. they had large and small. ever so good!!!!

  • @erlycuyler

    I don't usually ever go to Burger King (but I used to a LOT back in the 80s & 90s). Just for grins n giggles, Levi & I went through the drive at a local BK about a year ago... Gotta say, your version is 100% better than what we had then. Everything seemed to be about half the size of what I remember. Of course, the prices were pretty much double than what I expected.
    I've been using something similar for lighting the coals lately... I think they're called "Tumbleweeds". And yea, they're FAST!

  • @machinegun20

  • @garystinten9339
    @garystinten9339 Před 4 lety

    It's the initial taste that hooks you.
    as you slowly get that salty taste from the fries as you chew and feel it mash into an oily but crunchy ball and then the salt kicks in after a 2nd belt.. then you take a mouthful of sweet soda and the sweetness and saltiness combine..
    finally, whilst washing that down, the semi layered oil that's coated your mouth and adhered to the surface of your mouth is suddenly rewarmed from the burger as you bite through a soft bun and feel as your mouth closes, followed by condiments squishing out the sides, consisting of mayonaise, ketchup and tomato centres.. and feeling the crunch of the lettuce cheese and tomato combining again and again as you feed in some more fries and a sip of coke.
    now.. thumbs up.. who's hungry?

    That looked pretty bloody good mate.
    Here is how to make the quintessential Aussie burger that you would find in any non chain burger joint in Australia. I hope you make it.
    Use the same patty and bun as you used in this vid. Feel free to use a bigger patty.
    lettuce , tomato , bbq onions (give them a good splash of worcestershire sauce when half cooked) bacon , a bbq egg (runny yolk), cheese and some beetroot. BBq sauce and i'd like so see a darkish ring around the toasted side of the bun. cheers.
    P.S. It should really have a bbq pineapple ring too , to be a true Aussie burger but i never order the pineapple.

You have one of the best BBQ channels, I actually make what you make. You claim to make instructional videos and you do. Others claim to but are all artsy fartsy with no real instruction. "Today we'll make beef Wellington!" 20 minutes later they're serving it up and all you saw was fruity cookware, weird camera pans, a story from a trip to Greece, and someone showing off their cut of meat.

    You did a great job. My only critique is maybe you could have gotten the grate closer to the fire? Seems like there should be more browning on the patty, more mallard reaction. Or maybe use some "grill grates" to get nice back grill marks. The burger looked baked or something. But it looked like you pulled it off a the right time, very juicy!!
