you were so young
@Ballistic BBQ It's a burger joint in Memphis called Dyer's that makes deep-fried burgers cooked in oil that is over 106 years old. The 106-year-old oil contains hamburger fat that has been rendered off from the deep-fried burgers. The grease is strained every day in order to clean the oil. I know it sounds unhealthy and unappetizing, but many people that have tried it say it's the best burger they ever had. I hope you get around and do that recipe one day. Since you don't have access to oil that is over 100-years-old oil, you can probably deep fry your burger in peanut oil, vegetable oil, or hamburger fat saved from ground beef you had cooked before. Make sure you use 73%/27, not 80/20 ground beef. You need a burger that's high in fat to produce enough oil to deep fry your burgers in. Love the the burger recipes by the way.
Sup Greg, I make your version when want a fast burger, five guys here went way down hill, no standards anymore, even smashburgers went down hill with standards, idk why? Tyvm tc 🍔
i work at 5 guys and he did everything right, except youre supposed to set the raw patty on the grill, let it cook until the grey is about a quarter the way up then flip it and smash it, let it cook until you start to see clear juice come out of it, then flip it again. and cook until done. and we dont use oil in the onions for the reason he stated "im not cooking 500 onions" also our bread has a secret recipe that not even the managers know
I thought smashing a burger and squeezing the juice out of a burger was a sin?
Westsoid2009 when you have a pre-formed patty, it loses juices when you “squeeze” it while it cooks. What Jakob Evans is talking about is “smashing,” which is a technique to form the patty while cooking, ensure a good sear, and keep things extra juicy (fat bastes the patty as it rises through channels in the smashed patty). Google or CZcams “smash burger” for a good explanation/demonstration.
There's no spices on the patties?
And dont forget to spit in it
@@opalsanchez2811 lmao im dying from your comment.
You forgot to add the tears of the employees behind the grill
Dog, shut up
i put six pickles and it exploded
what did i do wrong?
you have to use the code of 5 pickles for 5 guys .... 6 threw off the whole mix.

You are lucky to be alive, many don't survive to tell the tale!
lmfao!!
+Sean Twomey lmao
Two things: Five Guys flips the burger when juices start to appear on top, flips it again when juices appear on top again, and then puts the cheese on. Here he was flipping sooner. Also the griddle on this video was too hot, because the bottom was already charred before the juices had appeared. That works for a med-rare burger, but Five Guys has to cook them thoroughly without excessively charring it.
I though they used peanut oil when cooking ?
Pedro Escobar they only use peanut oil for the fries. they don't fry the patties, they grill them
They're fried on a flattop. At the start of the day they rub one raw patty over the flattop to get the initial grease. This is at least how they do it at the 5 guys where my son works.
Ron Williams Greg's is better
Ron Williams It's a burger lovie not gourmet food just minced beef. Could be cow's arse for all you know
I used to work at a Five guys restaurant. And this guy is pretty close. the difference is we use 100 Angus beef. never frozen but yes kept at 33 degrees in the fridge. When the patties are cooked we flatten them even further once they hit the flat top. It helps speed up the cooking process and prevents the terrible browning you see on this guys patties. Also i know a lot of you hate on the fact you cant get you burger cooked to order. Medium rare and the like. And ill be honest. i think cooking any type of beef above medium is a sin. But ive never had a dry burger from any of the 5 guys ive been to.to several local and out of town. Ive never cared for the fries. on occasion yeah i eat them like they are the last ones in existence but usually they are meh. but when you are the one cleaning grease traps and slicing over 500 pounds of potatoes a day you tend to not like them. Also i advice people not to eat the fries unless the sign on the wall says the potatoes are from idaho. Usually if the sign says its from somewhere else those are potatoes that have been in a warehouse for a while. about 10 percent of bad is usually rotten and they just have you cut out the bad part of the potato and use the rest. yeah those little fries in your bag, those are probably from the "good" half of the potato. i always found it disgusting and through the whole thing away when the boss wasn't looking. Now a good tip for those who love 5 guys. if you ask for extra cheese and or bacon, the first extra slice/strip is completely free. This doesn't apply if you got a burger without either of those. so you cant get a free upgrade if you will. the five guys chain is also very consistent and never screw up orders. we ate at a five guys for several years and they messed up our order once, the best part is they comped the entire meal not just what got messed up. it was food for 5 people so they lost some money but we were happy and continue to go there. ok rant done
Christopher Stepaniak was about to say that, but you said it all, fellow ex-Five Guys worker :P
Kalamite i wish i still worked there. But my co workers were all friends from like highschool. And the rules didnt apply to them. I was late 3 times and was terminated on the spot the 3rd time. But 2 of my other co workers were constantly late and nothing was said. best one was when one of them came in from a heavy night of drinking and slept off his hangover the first 2 hours of their shift. Got paid by the way. Another employee came in high and did the same thing. I would love to work for five guys again just at a different location
Christopher Stepaniak I remember my friends at Five Guys saying that, "You can come in high, just still be able to function properly.". I did it all the time after that, almost became a manager but I had to go back to college so I had to quit(n time for work and all that). A high manager, would've been pretty interesting. Which station did you work the most, if you remember?
I wasn't there long only about 3 months. I did a lot of cashiering because i did it well. I never did assembly. My favorite was patty cooking. But other than that i did all the bitch work XD. i cut all the potatoes upwards to 800 pounds a shift. I did all the dishes once lunch rush was over. I did the cleaning in the store. Everyone hated cleaning the flat tops because of steam burns. Also don't get me wrong. i believe you can come to work drunk/hungover/high and still manage to do your job. But it irritated me when people did it and didn't do their job. I've come to work once at my current job hungover. My manager was fine with it as long as i did my job properly, which i did. I also asked for the day off after my birthday, but that's neither here nor there. But sleeping on the job AND getting paid for it pissed me off.
Christopher Stepaniak Ahhh, ok. I get ya. For me, I was kept at the patties and fry station, rarely cleaning or cutting potatoes, BUT I was still the fastest cutter at our store.
thanks, now I don't have to shell out $15 for a meal
5 guys is good but the prices are ridiculous..
15$? Wtf that's cheap.
Foreign Foamer not here in the US. You can go to In N Out and buy a double double, fries and a shake for less than $10 and it’s good stuff.
@@foreignfoamer3592 ik a BC is 9.15
Foreign Foamer shut up you uncultured swine
Foreign Foamer maybe for people in a big city it is.. but for most of the US you should be able to get this sort of food for much, much less. For a good burger, probably not much more than 5. Boring fast food burger maybe 3. For a fancy sit-in restaurant it will be more expensive ofc. But 15 for just a burger is insane.
Cost of living is ridiculously high in some spots. Move elsewhere and you may find your dollars are worth a little more. Especially in housing and real estate..
hey man, great recreation (: im a shift manager at a five guys location in california. a crucial part of making sure the burger is cooked thoroughly is smashing it a second time while its on the grill. if you watch a cook at five guys you can kind of pick up how the burger is made. we never season our patties ever
Sup, strange here in RI and northern new england I see them season patties now, and their standards way low, idk why? Even get half rotted tomatoes, lettuce starting to brown, used to be a great fast burger?
You did good with the dressings part. But coming from an actual FiveGuys employee, the patties and bun is the only part you got wrong. All the ingredients we use CAN be bought from any grocery store, except the bun. The bun is a gourmet style, but its a secret recipe that even the DMs don't know. It can not be replicated by any means. Now the patties we use are %100 ground 85/15. THEY ARE UNSEASONED, CAJUN SEASON IS FOR FRIES ONLY... NO SPICES OR SAUCES TOUCH THE GRILL AT ANY POINT. Lay one piece of paper down, a patty ball that weighs 3.6 oz, another piece of paper, smash, patty ball, paper, smash. That's our double burger "stack". If you smash 2 at a time you risk flattening out the patties to the point where they will burn up fast. Lay them on the grill, NO oil, let them turn a slight grey, flip, smash once, then slide to the next spot on the grill (obviously you can't if you are using a skillet) let it cook till small pools of blood show, flip again to the final stage. Lay the cheese in a star pattern stack patties and place on bun. That's as close as you'll get without knowing the bun recipe. But over all, for not working there and knowing the proper procedures, very good job replicating.
I know the recipe
Jacob Cosgrove so no salt or pepper at all?
Most disgusting thing ever I’ll stick to home made Australian healthy food
Do you know what type of buns they are? Such as potato buns etc.?
Their buns aren't that great
@shayoko6 +Akemi Homura Worrying about semantics in the title of a HAMBURGER video seems like a major waste of time. It would be great if you enabled the "Reply" feature, so when you make these type of comments, the courtesy of being able to respond is extended to the creator of the video.
listen, keep doing what ur doing. you're GRRRRREAT!!!! I ALMOST LICKED MY PHONE SCREEN!!!!!!!! THE TORTURE. AWESOME BURGER
I continue coming back to this channel to stalk this BURGER!!!! I NEED THAT IN MY LIFE RIGHT NOW!!!! IT'S CRITICAL!!!!! LOLLLLL
Instead of having crappy ass Mcdonald why don't they make 5 guys and burgers world wide in asia !!!! need it here :') haha miss my USA
+yen Ling shang not enough prservatives
it was a joke cant eat all that wont last long in frig
Love five guys, love making my own smashburgers on my LSG, and love the great burger videos that you put out. Cannot wait oo try this one. Thank you, Greg!
This was good. I can't believe the simplicity of this made a difference. I used the Cajun seasoning. Thanks
très beau
3 am...now I am hungry...
same goes to me
Speechless! Amazing Burger - very nice recipe! You rock, Sir! Best wishes from Germany, Schwager´s BBQ
What a nice job doing this video buddy, you kept it simple and made one hell f a burger! That bite said it all when the juice just ran straight down, cooked perfectly! I've watched a few of your videos recently, and enjoy what you do. I like that burger smasher you have, you've used it a few times. Is that for sale yet? Thanks!
This looks delicious. I never realized you could make a great tasting burger at home with no seasoning. I’ll try it. Thank you sir
Five Guys have good burgers, but I can't get over the cost.
+gumbo How much does it cost? (I'm from EU and Five Guys isn't in my country)
+Rehy Depends on the location, but $4.75 for a hamburger and $6.25 for a double hamburger. $5.10/$6.95 for cheese. $3.19 for regular fries.
+gumbo Thats cheap compared to the eu, probably much better then our fast food aswell :(
+Sam Crow Well, yeah, things are just much more expensive over there. Here it's pretty pricey for a burger. Pretty delicious though.
+Rehy its £8.75 for a bacon cheeseburger in uk, so roughly 10 euros
I know it's a matter of opinion, but I still don't understand why some people hate on Five Guys. They destroy the fast food chains as far as I'm concerned. So what if they don't season the meat? Seasoning is only used in the shitty fast food places to cover up the taste of the mediocre beef. You get plenty of added flavor from any toppings you add to it, plus the cheese. When I go, I typically get a bacon cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, grilled onion, jalapenos and bbq or A.1. sauce.
Agreed 😊
YOU'RE RIGHT! I AGREE ALSO.
chris doyle My point was that the meat will be seasoned by the toppings anyway, especially all of the salt in the cheese. McDonald's adds salt to their food because the quality is shit, Five Guys doesn't need to.
chris doyle You missed my point again, never mind lol.
AGAIN, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT CHRIS. I TOTALLY GET WHAT YOU ARE SAYING. THAT IS VERY TRUE ABOUT ALL OF THE SALT IN THE TOPPINGS LIKE CHEESE, MAYO, MUSTARD, KETCHUP, ETC. I'M IN COLLEGE STUDYING TO BE A REGISTERED DIETICIAN (R.D.). SAME THING WHEN YOU HAVE EGGS AND BACON. BACON CONTAINS LIKE A POUND OF SALT, SO WHY SALT THE EGGS? LOL. EVEN THOUGH WE'VE ALL BEEN GUILTY OF IT AT SOME POINT. LOL. MY POINT IS TO SAY THAT YOU ARE 100% CORRECT. SOME PEOPLE WILL SEE YOUR POINT AND SOME WON'T, SO DON'T EVEN WORRY ABOUT IT. YOU JUST STICK TO DOING RIGHT, AND DOING WHAT'S BEST FOR YOUR HEALTH. YOU ARE ON THE RIGHT TRACK. :)
bad ass. watched this originally when you made it 4 years ago and watching it now. just incredible to watch. thanks.
Always love your video. My families and friends love your recipes!
As someone who works at Five Guys, this was actually pretty accurate:) other than evening out the patty during the cooking stage.
6:43 burger taking a piss
vomitedshit that's delicious tomato juice and mayo piss!
Shitty burfger
Lmao 🤣🤣
vomitedshit ROFL
Looks extremely amazing! Enjoy 🙏🏽 Im heading to the store for the ingredients now🤗 Making my own today 😎
Great video that hamburger looked amazing, I almost killed my keyboard drooling over it! btw what type of grill is that you used?
This is my new favorite channel!
Just watched the junkyard dog video and it brought me here.
Forget the haters man! Your burgers look awesome and I like your ideas!
I'm going to try the mashed potatoes burger when it comes up!
I appreciate your stopping by and making this great comment! Cheers James!
James Welsh Exactly! I just found this channel 45 minutes ago. Right on about the haters. They suck.
Haha I love how you realize you burned the buns and didn't show the camera, then off camera you made more.
+Why don't You ask The only reason they burnt is cause he didn't butter his bunz...
+HBK970 haha
the funniest part is he literally thought he could fool youtube with that slick little move
Lol exactly
Why don't You ask lol those bunz are nice too
Excellent, thank you. There's a real joy in making a direct, simple cheeseburger at home. Simple, but delicious.
Well done young man, I like the look of this recipe...must try it out soon. Thank you for posting.
That is a good video and the burger looks simple but awesome

q
How is this different from any normal cheeseburger you'd make at home.
Bob Jones it's five guys
they use fresh ground beef with no preservatives. very different price than Walmart ground beef.
Exactly. This aint five guys
I'm a manager at Five Guys and this isn't even close... The meat is wrong, the buns are wrong, and the process is way off. Burger looks good but not like ours.
I'm trying to find out how they get their burgers so thin and flat. I may be wrong as I have only eaten at two different locations (Philly and southwest Virginia). But they always get their burger patty's so flat and perfect. Could you share how they do so? when I cook with 80/20 beef I press them out as flat as possible and they always poof up once the cooking begins. I'm thinking its a problem with the meat i'm using or the technique. Thanks for reading!
I work at Five Guys, everything's spot on except you didn't flatten or "even out" the burger patties when they were on the grill. Other than that it looked pretty good. The bread we use is our own branded bread that you probably wouldn't find anywhere else other than a Five Guys, just thought I'd throw that out there as well.
Nicely done!. I can cook a myriad of dishes well, but burgers are an elusive challenge I can never nail. Thanks for the vid!
what I love to do is put some butter on the bun, oh my! it comes out crisp and doesn't fall apart!
100% agree. And I don't like 2 patties either. I make one thick patty and cook it med rare.No pickles on the burger either....just a whole pickle on the side.
Lol that man couldn’t wait to dig in 😂😂😂
This video was amazing it helped me out so much. I love five guys but there is not one in my city. So it's great that I can know the burgers at my house
I have never been to a FIVE GUYS .... but thanks for replicating a burger that most people make in the backyard.
6:41, my mouth did the exact same thing.
"Five Guys Burger Recipe"
1. Have meat
2. Have toppings
3. Have garnishes
4. Have "gourmet" buns
5. Have "great deli style" cheese
I miss working at five guys great place and the owners were awesome people to meet and you did a awesome job man props to you
we made this at 12 pm with wife and daughter, it was the first time i made a burger at home, and it tasted excelent, i only have to perfect it, thanks for this recipe.
958 People burned their bun.
lol
nice!
slice up some onions, add a little oil, saute awhile, then add a little sugar for carmalization, and yum!!!!
Very accurate, I work at five guys and you did a pretty good job recreating our famous burger
momma use to make these and bring them to us in the field when we was farming and iced sweet tea in a mason jar....good ol home cooked meals right out of the trunk of a car...lol...black eyed peas and hot corn bread was the best with fried okra n french fries....good ol days for me
my mouth is so watering right now
Does it amazing dud? becose I planing to make it
How come everytime I go to five guys... only four guys are working
@jon gibson lmao
Because you are the 5th one
Cause Five guys went in to business together to start "Five Guys" while you barely make it probably wondering next week how you're going to pay bills. Just drink what you icon shows if you're haven't.
They're cooking the 5th guy
Because they fucking hate us
Looked good! Never had 5 guys but they are currently building one in our city and should be open early next year.
I cannot wait to try this, we have a great butcher at our local grocery store, people come to buy their high quality fresh meats from the three states around us! I can get 80/20 easily, but now gonna ask if he can prepare me some 85/15..... Thanks for posting! and the comments! Love Hamburgers on the grill, NEVER do I use propane for grilling meat... changes the flavor... I use regular charcoal burned white, add hickory ( from trees my hubby cuts at work and gathers small limbs from. I let those burn down a little( so heat will not be too harsh and dry meats out,) and then after they are coaled really well, I slap the meats on the grill, allowing natural flavors means NO ADDED salts or seasonings are needed! Brush lightly with BBQ sauce (if wanted ) a minute before removing from grill, wrap meats instantly in aluminum foil( allowing natural juices to release), then by the time I have my buns prepared, unwrap from foil tent and eat away! Always juicy and delicious!
the burger looks yummy bro
sweet, just made this for dinner step by step (except the mayo and pickles) and it was fucking delicious you get the onions, cheese, beef, ketchup, mustard, etc all in one bite, fucking amazing. Gonna make these every cheat day instead of going out to get fastfood from now on, thanks!
Your welcome
Just subscribed and really enjoying your videos. Good stuff
love your channel! I've made a few of your burgers and they're damn good!
That is a killer burger! What kind of griddle are you cooking on?
Thanks! I had that custom made. Stainless plate cut into a 21.5" semicircle.
WOW! That is awesome. I may need to have one made. Thanks!
Ballistic BBQ Hey! Got a couple of questions for you on the Stainless plate. 1. That is stainless steel correct? 2) is that fitted to a Weber 22.5 inch grill and if so how does air circulate to keep the coals from going out? 3) did you get handles made as well for easy handling? I was just checking out your grill again and it looks like the plate is cut in half, that explains the circulations issue.
I was thinking about having a SS Plate made as well, what thickness did you go with? thanks
It's a stainless plate I had made. Thanks!
Nothing like a home made burger!
I work at Five Guys and this is pretty accurate! We just smash down the patties before and after flipping so that it's not so thick like that, but this is really good!
Love Five Guys. My only criticism is that they only offer American cheese, which imho is dreadful. Get some cheddar for fx sake. I guess it's all for the best. Because of the cheese situation, I order without cheese, and save myself 1-200 calories that can be made up with extra fries.
So instead of 2,100 calories with that burger and fries, you're only eating 2,000?
Every calorie counts, and if it means I'm also not eating the tragedy that is American cheese, all the better.
There cheese is horrible ,
😩😩 if you ever BBQ, am I invited? Lol. That looks so good.
love the sensible chuckle at 6:45 lol
This guy makes the best burgers that I have ever seen! OMG! I wanna try this In my grill this weekend!
I'm eating an oatmeal and watching this
Ahhaha
Same here lol
e
Lol. Me, a zucchini soup :(
Nightowl 😂😂😂
Fuck that looks good😂
Making my mouth water!!!
Wonderful video!!!
Simply the best to eat delicious burgers making ideas. Thanks
man you made a regular burger lol
1000 dislikes? hmmm... I'm gonna guess 250 of them are offended by everything, 250 are jerks who dislike everything for fun, and 500 of them are vegan.
FooBar Maximus you ain’t shit
Adelizine514 n
Bruh dis nicca aint do shit but make a burger wit no seasoning
Vegan. Old Cherokee word for "Bad Hunter"
@@THEcommitteeVISION Do you speak English? I bet most of us don't speak welfare.
Bit late to the party, but I figured I would add my ten cents as a manager at a Five Guys store.
First off, I want to say that this is very close to a Five Guys burger! The order of the toppings was spot on, and you even laid out the cheese the same way we do.
80/20 fat ratio is correct to the best of my knowledge, and yes, our beef is double ground (At least I've heard that before - I just grill the patties, I don't grind 'em!) and the weight is always between 3.5-3.7 oz for consistency. We don't do little patties; a little burger simply has one 3.6oz patty instead of two.
While we don't use oil for the onions, we do use a seasoned grill, allowing the natural grease to glaze the onions (And mushrooms!) to a golden-brown color. For those of you who don't eat beef, either because you have an allergy, are religious or simply don't eat meat, I must warn you that both the mushrooms and onions are grilled in beef (and bacon) grease. However, if you ask for beef free onions and mushrooms, we will happily grill them for you on out bread grill, which is a surface that no meat has ever touched.
The only mistake in this video (aside from not weighing the patties) is how high you claim that we stack them before smashing them (only two high, and we only smash one at a time) and how you grilled them. Grilling is where the exactness of the weight becomes important. Once the bottom of the patty is sealed, we flip it over and break that seal with a tool called a patty evener, which ensured that the patties are the right thickness for consistency and quality. We grill out patties thin so that we can ensure that they are all grilled well done, without burning or drying out. Pink in the center of your patty is considered a failure on our part, and we will replace it for you free of charge.
I feel like a commercial. I didn't mean to do that. I think my job has gotten into my head. Send help.
Great burger. I can definitely afford to make one of these. Thanks for sharing.
I want to eat that
then i will be hungry
+Yaren Cevher Yeah for sure you would from his. But mine will stuff you right up

Hey, how about the Dyers deep fried burger? Thanks
+Euclides Netto It's on the list brother!
+Ballistic BBQ great! I wonder how to duplicated the seasoned grease. Greetings from Brazil!
+Euclides Netto I think you just need to cook burgers in it for 80 years or so!
+Ballistic BBQ lol. I saw on a TV show that they season the grease every day. I think they fry up some onions and they put a black liquid also. Maybe liquid smoke?
+Euclides Netto I'll probably start out with some beef tallow.
Man , you are the BEST! just thank you sooo much. i sow your burger videos at lest 3 tims , and i will keep doing that👍❤
egg buns are the best! good looking burger! now I'm craving 5 guys but like you can make it at home for a lot cheaper! thanks for posting
What kind of grill is that?
I had that cut for me. It's a 3/16" stainless semicircle with a 21.5" diameter.
Then you just placed it on your grill?
Patrick Smith Yes, right on top. Works great. I made another one, that I actually like better. It's cut from standard steel and plated with nickel, which holds heat very, very close to the surface. You can hold your hand less than an inch from the cooking surface and it just feels warm. However, if you touched the surface, you'd burn your finger off!
Ballistic BBQ that is extremely toxic. stop using it at once.
jk. I would fuck the shit out of that boigah. EXCELSIOR!!!
Ballistic BBQ where can I get one made???
I've only eaten at Five Guys once, but I wasn't very impressed. It tasted just like a Wendy's burger at twice the price.
You're a damn liar. Wendy's is garbage
We tried this over the weekend and it was excellent. Thanks 4 the video.
This is how my Dad made burgers, except he used white, real American cheese, from the Deli. Not that Kraft plastic stuff. He also sliced and salted his tomatoes to get them to release water. Then patted them dry. This was 50yrs ago. I still make Dad's burgers today!
Well all i can say is that burger look absolutely delicious! I prefer not to have my patty seasoned, all the condiments have enough salt. Anyway I've never heard of 5 guys restaurant, are they only in certain states? #tfs 😊
Which state do you live in?
***** Wat
+JHGIFD56487JLGF He wasn't asking you -___-
+lennie8 There everywhere. I live in Canada and it's all over the place. I'm sure most states have them. You can check on there site and put in your zipcode/postal code to see the closest one to you.
omg u must try 5 Guys..the bomb
Which is better Smash Burger or Five Guys? I have not tried either but I am going to!
Greg S Tough call two pretty different burgers. Smashburger has an epic crust and Five Guys is a good basic American burger.
Ballistic BBQ I consider myself a half good burger chef. My method is grilling them on my Weber Kettle. I've started using 80% ground chuck. Chuck has the best flavor. If you get "ground beef" the meat can come from just about anywhere on the steer. I have been packing the burgers too tight though. I will use smash technique next time. Thanks For a great video!
Five guys. No contest
+Greg S Agree with Ben, five guys has en incredible burger. But to my opinion theirs frys are bad compared to the smash fries. Depends if I want fries that day will depend where I generally go!
+kiz The that is why,
Why am I watching this at 2am Friday Morning 05/27/16? Now I am STARVING! Great Video!
having worked there for a year a while back., they do season the meat with a salt blend that they have done for them. and they use a hamburger press.. your burgers look mighty tasty though.
where's the seasoning?!!
+Natalie T Guess you missed the part when I said that they do not season their patties, unless you ask them to or order the Cajun Burger. 2:41.
+Ballistic BBQ roast
and then they don't put salt on the patties???
Five Guys does not season their patties. The exception is if you order it Cajun Style.
Yah. 'dats the secret ingredient in 'der......Ya. (Brazilian soy beans, Chiiean chickory nuts and spanish fly)
theres no way in hell there's no seasoning on their burgers. no way in hell
there really isn't. seasoning before cooking a burger ruins the texture.
there has to be some seasoning! one thing is to build the burger patty without salt , which is GREAT because you don't dry it out, but a whole different thing is to cook it with NO SEASONING AT ALL.
you can taste their meat is plain. beef generally doesn't need seasoning
+Marquis Jones Careful, you may cause brain damage to these individuals by using actual facts around them
meat produces some kind of bitterness when fried . just like try to eat burnt bread it tastes salty , when they change there form they also change the taste
What a great challenge, glad i found it. Now where to get one of those flat top grill inserts haha thats sweet
Yummy stuff! And thanks for the recipe!!
you should definitely season the patties
how tho?
we actually smash one burger at a time.
I'm too cheap to buy that flattop, and I found a quick means to smash my burgers. That was a lovely sear on those burgers. Absolutely beautiful
Amazing burger. I am gonna try it. Thank you for the recipe.
This is for those of you who are Five Guys fans and who LOVE red meat.
maybe the most delicious heart attack in the world?

Ive had a "Five Guys Burger" I was not impressed. You want a great burger? Take 1/2 lb of 80-20 beef & roll it into a meat ball & place it between 2 sheets of wax paper, press down on it with a pyrax pie plate so you can see what your doing. Keep pressing until you get a even 1/3 inch burger. The burger will be about 6 to 7 inches wide, Dont worry, It wont stay that way. Heat up a cast iron fry pan on high heat & put peanut oil in it. Drop in the burger. As it cooks it will shrink in with but grow in thickness, After 2 minuets flip it. After another 2 minuets it is done. You will have the Juiciest burger in the world.
Hint, never press down on a burger while its cooking.
I do something similar, except I liberally coat both sides with salt and pepper to give it a more flavorful crust and, when I flip it, I put a modest pat of butter on top of the burger. Other than that, essentially the same (though I cook mine a bit longer because I prefer medium-well).
Great food is like great music it's Timeless awesome job Greg this was wicked
Thanks Greg for this heads-up
So they don't season their meat at all? I'll pass.
Your missin out
No they do they add salt and pepper I think cuz my brother and sister work at five guys
+DaemoniumCC Why season meat?
Richard Crainium Are you trolling or...?
+Richard Crainium For flavor?
Why the praise for five guys? Their food is mediocre and overpriced at best.Then again the burger chains in the US pretty much suck so maybe this is the best of the worst.
***** Glad you like it, but seriously and honestly there are chain restaurants in Canada that put five guys to shame. Hero burger is probably the best among them, but up there they are killing it in the burger business. They have all your regular fast food like McDonald's and Wendy's, but also like 4 or 5 high quality chains too, of which five guys is on the bottom.
MrJonnydanger Im from Canada but live in the US now and i cant really tell the difference. They each have something i like about them. I also think its a location thing. Iv been to a chain burger place and it was pretty good, then to the same place in another area and it sucks.
Then just don't eat burgers in the U.S. It seems so simple.....
What? It's not about eating or not eating them, MrJonnydanger is merely stating that he thinks five guys is not as good as people say.
Cybraxas That's not what he/she said.
i would like to purchase your grill. I have the ballistic flat top in my cart on Amazon and I love the idea. I have a question, I already own the craycort cast iron grill on my weber 22" inch kettle. So when i use the flat top do I remove the 2 sections of the grill or place the flat top directly over the cast iron without removing the sections?
That looks ridiculously awesome I wanted a bite!!!!
could have did with out the dirty fingernails. just saying, but the burger looked great u should put a fried egg over easy on it next time, just a suggestion!!!
lol...
