Hello everyone, this is running on empty
food review
Well, hello
Ladies and gentlemen and everyone watching and this is running on empty food review and I am your host the report of the week
so thank you for joining me in another food review and
This time around, you know changing up the scene
Once again this if you can't tell you know, what what is this behind you review bruh? What what's going on?
What is everything?
Okay, all is good not feeling 100% today probably because of all the all the stuff that I eat though
I am I am working on trying to get my diet better eat some
smoothies and some healthy greens and kale and all that good stuff and
Stay healthy, but sometimes you just have your off days, but I did want to go out and I wanted to try something today
I also wanted to do it a little comfortably so I am in bed this time around
but we're still we're still powering on and
Continuing on with the reviews now when it comes down to what's going on in the fast food world
There's not a ton of different releases. There's not a ton of
You know various
I mean, we've pretty much tried everything that's being talked about right the cheez-it pizza and
The whatever it is the pretzel King from Burger King, right?
There's nothing really new that's out, but I still want to try something and I said hey, how about how about steak and shake?
It's one of those places that while they don't have any
Releases necessarily. It's still something that I haven't done a video on in so long
I mean it's been about three years since I last did a review of any sort from them, but I still go there regularly
It's one of those places that I have my favorite items from when you go to a restaurant
It doesn't mean you have to like everything that's on the menu. You can have the things that you detest and
Despise and then you could also have the things that wow. I just get this for breakfast and lunch
And dinner and then I get another one that I don't even eat
I just like put it in a little glass
enclosure and I just look at it when I want to right you have these items that you really like and
When it come down to Steak and Shake, that's how it is
I have a few select items on their menu that I'm a big fan of I I
Personally, enjoy I like them
I get them a lot and I realize I never really did a video talking about my favorite items from Steak and Shake
So I'm not I'm not just saying that to waste your time and mess around with you. I have my favorite items and I
wanted to showcase them and
verification you can see right there the official
Steak and Shake drinking apparatus says Steak N Shake
Famous for steak burgers right there and
Then here an air of mystery
the Steak and Shake
Bag and you can see it's got all this cryptic
Writing we got this big curved thing. I don't know what that is even supposed to be
We have that and then we have all these coded messages here
One of them says hand scooped
milkshakes
made with real milk
the
old-fashioned way so that one says made to order number one voted milkshake and says
I guess to really promoting those and then it says their original steak burgers there - all right
And you can see right there
looks like that's a
Setting Sun and
Then looks like there's a little bit of an ocean wave. So I guess that's the Sun setting over the
ocean right there an image of that pretty scenic to be quite honest and
I'll tell you this
The three things that are my favorite items from Steak and Shake
it's one of each thing a
burger a
side and a drink a complete meal
I'll tell you this
one of the things that I like about Steak and Shake is
That you could usually get a complete meal there at a decent price
I'm not gonna sit there and I'm gonna say that it's the world's cheapest thing because it's not you know
It's look everything is a little crazy nowadays
But you can still get a complete meal under $10, which is reasonable, you know completely reasonable
Another thing that I am a fan of with Steak and Shake is they are 24/7
And that's one thing that I really appreciate considering my night owl schedule. Is that of course if you want a burger at 7:00 a.m
Hey go for it. They'll serve you one. There's no problem with that. Whereas other places of course
You know, you cannot get a burger at 7:00 a.m
There's no way but they're open and they'll happily serve you now to be quite honest. I do have a few issues
one issue that I usually have is
Sometimes they get your order wrong
So one thing that I always recommend doing is when you order especially if it's at the drive-through
Make sure you check the bag and check your item before you you had your merry way
Because I think it's maybe just something that's wrong with when you give the order in they can't hear the audio right or something
I have no idea but they oftentimes have a tendency to get it wrong
so first and foremost
how about we get the
Burger out that's what the main star of the dish
There is
What is this how about for the grand reveal we're gonna be dramatic there goes one part
There goes the other we still don't know what it is. What is it?
Could it be a
Hamburger yes indeed. It is to all those of you who were guessing right there. That's what it is
This is what I usually like to get it is a triple steak steak burger with bacon
Lettuce tomato and ketchup. It's a basic combination. But you know what to be quite honest. It's what I am a fan of
It's a basic burger
But that's what I think they do best
Lots of people they tell me get the fresco melt, you know get the yeah, let's do this
Get the fresco melt they they yeah, so I always say and I tried it out and I wasn't a fan of it
I just wasn't feeling the fresco melts to be quite honest. I don't
This I what I wasn't a fan of it the first film melt, I think it's cold
But anyway, triple steak burger with bacon lettuce tomato and ketchup. That's my go-to
I always get the triple because sometimes their patties can be a little thin and to get that third patty
Which is really almost no increase whatsoever. I think it really makes it worth it
But I just like the way all the flavors blend together
I think it's a flavorful burger tastes good and it's just what has continued to impress me
Time and time against this is what I go here for a lot of people get it with the cheese
I'm just not a fan of it
You know, I always just say no cheese and if you ever get this you just need to specify no cheese
Please so with that we'll try it out and we'll see if they're still maintaining the standards and look
While this is a video of my favorite items from Steak and Shake
If this is like if I end up being crushed by this
I'll be honest and I'll say that you know, I'm gonna
I'll never forgive them after this, you know, if it's that bad if it's not I'll say it's good but you know
So let's try it out the triple steak burger with bacon lettuce tomato and ketchup from Steak and Shake. It's going in
And see there it is right there all three patties yes indeed it is a triple
And we'll take one more bite right here get that tomato in
And there's one last view of it and
you know one of my favorite things about the
Triple steak burger really any of those steak burgers. But again, I like the triple one
is that
You can taste
The quality of the ingredients, right?
Like the lettuce the tomato all of that is fresh and it shows I can definitely I can taste that freshness. I
would say though
Aside from the freshness of the ingredients which again that is one thing that will always boost the quality of the sandwich
What I like especially with especially in again. I hope it's emphasized. It is important to get the triple
Its the juiciness of the patties those three when they come together it just it makes for a delicious
Just a delicious juicy burger. That's the best way to put it. You just really taste that juicy meaty flavor. It's cooked good
It's fresh. The bacon is there too. I mean you can see that the quality of the bacon. Hey, you know what?
It looks pretty good. That's the best way to put it. It has a little bit of a crisp to it as well
Not overdone but not underdone either which is important and that shines through too. Look. It's a greasy sandwich
It's fatty, you know, it's probably not good for you
but it sure tastes good and I'm a fan of it and
Again price for the burger itself is just it's under five bucks for a triple
Again, though to add the bacon add a few things. It'll the price will vary for you, but it's an inexpensive
burger
one of the other things
Will bag there we go, but I always like to get on the side
Their cajun fries
The french fries aren't something that I usually rave about but I'm a fan of the cajun fries
where they just come with these little cajun spices and seasonings kind of like
How Five Guys does theirs though, look I'll be honest five guys. I'm a fan of more
But these are still decent fries for what they are
You know
That's the best way to put it but I always get them with the Cajun seasoning and that's what it comes down to
So I'm just gonna try a few
Obviously, these aren't huge wedge cut steak fries or anything like that
But
These are well seasons this time and I just like that little bit of a contrast between
Fries themselves which can be a little bland otherwise, but then that spice that's in the seasoning there that little extra
Saltiness that's it. It just it gives it that little bit of a boost that I think they need
That's why I'm a big fan of the cajun fries
So got the burger
Right and then what is this mysterious substance that I wash it down with
Vanilla coke it's pretty standard. It's pretty basic
but the one thing that I like about their vanilla coke aside from the fact that it's vanilla coke I guess is that
They actually put the vanilla syrup in and it just gives this certain
More direct vanilla flavoring than you get usually in any sort of vanilla coke
Far more pronounced the best way to put it and
I mean a vanilla coke is something that you just don't get too much of nowadays
You know, I'm a fan but I always like the way it tastes and you get more of a again
I direct flavor from that. Oh
And although I like it's a well-rounded meal
Good amount of meat tasty burger and decent sides and drink as well. They're an affordable price under ten bucks out of ten
I mean, I would go ahead and rate this entire meal
Yeah, I would I would give it an eight point three out of ten for what it is price included
Just have to be careful when you order it, but it's good for what it is. And that's why I'm a fan of it
Look when it comes down to Steak and Shake
They have a pretty good menu a good size menu, but these are my favorite things on the menu. That's why I like them. So
Out of curiosity if you made it this far, what are your favorite items on the Steak and Shake menu? What do you like?
