If there's one thing we all love is a nice juicy cheeseburger. This is comfort
food and we can make it at very affordable price. But today I'm gonna try
to take the humble cheeseburger to a whole different level and that is by
doing three different ones at three different prices. By the end of this
video we're really gonna find out if it's really worth spending that much
money on a regular cheeseburger. This is cooking three different cheeseburgers at
three different prices to find out which one is best. So let's do it!
We start off with ground beef the cheapest one you can find. This one
happens to be 73 percent lean and 27 percent fat. By no mean is this the best
ground beef there is but hey it is cheap. And as you can see it's already grounded
up and all you have to do is start making your balls. I like to keep them
anywhere between two and a half ounces to 3 for me that's the perfect ratio for
the smashburger. I also recommend using parchment paper
because it makes the job a lot easier. For the sauce it is one of the easiest
thing to do. In a bowl throw in some mayo, followed by ketchup, yellow mustard and
sweet relish. Now mix it well and your sauce is done. It does not get any easier
than that. The next ingredient is a good old American cheese. I know a lot of you
don't enjoy it, but let me tell you something for this burger it works and I
would not replace it with anything else. For the buns you can really use any one
you like, but since we're going cheap these are the cheapest one I could find.
If I'm not mistaking I think I paid two dollars for eight of them. As you can see
is just a good old plain hamburger bun. Our next cheeseburger is way more
expensive but at the same time it is something to experience. If you have been
watching my channel for a while you know I love dry-age, it is one of the best
things you can do with meat. Taking a regular piece of meat and dry-aging
makes it better, and taking a great piece of meat and dry-aging that it's just a
whole different level. And with all that being said this is what I did for my
second burger. I'm gonna be using this beautiful 35 days dry-aged rib eye. And
even though this is gonna go in a dry-aged cheeseburger the first thing we
need to do is remove the pellicles, that has a very strong pronounced flavor.
Now you don't want to throw that away if I was doing a regular cheeseburger that
would be a perfect thing to throw into the mix. But since this one is a hundred
percent dry aged already there is no need for the pellicles. After slicing
them open I decided to go to even a higher level which is to remove the
connective tissue and silver skin. That will make sure that my burgers
absolutely amazing. Using my meat grinder in the lowest setting I
started to grind it up. Always remember to keep your meat as cold as possible
including your grinder. And once I was done with the grinding this is what it
looks like. If you compare this one to the pre grind one I just show you
previously there is no comparison, it's already ten times better. Now the only
thing left to do is to make my patties, put it on the parchment paper and they
are ready to go. Even though the previous burger has a bigger fat to ratio mix I
think this one is gonna be so good that I
won't be adding any additional fat. For the sauce I also decided to do something
special. So I started off with a little bit of mayo, followed by Worcestershire
sauce, Louisiana Hot Sauce, garlic powder and freshly ground black pepper. Now mix
it well when your sauce is done. And of course we're not gonna use American
cheese, so with this one I went up to provolone. And for the buns I'm gonna be
using my favorite which is brioche. I've already shown how to make these buns
yourself at home, if you have not seen that video make sure you check
it out on the description down below they are easy to make and like I said it is
my favorite. Now moving on to the most expensive of them all I am going to be
using Wagyu. Yes my friends this is the best of the best. If you never had a wagyu
steak before I definitely recommend you giving it a try before you even
think about trying a cheeseburger. Always eat wagyu as a steak, then you can move
on to crazy things like I'm doing. I'm not even sure if I should, but hey at
least I'll be doing this so that you don't have to do it at home. After I slice
it in strips, check this out. It's like the Picasso of beef, to me the perfect ratio
of fat and beef together. So I got my meat grinder and started the process. And
right at this point I was second-guessing myself but hey there's
only one way to find out if it's gonna be good. But once I was done with all the
grinding this is what I got. That is the most expensive ground beef you will ever
see. And it is still to be determined if I made a huge mistake or not. As you can
tell I'm having self doubts. But moving on to the next step and it's pretty
straightforward we just gotta make our patties put it on a parchment paper and
you'll be ready to go. I'll tell you one thing you better be
quick because the fat starts melting in your hands. Even though it looks like
regular ground beef trust me it is not. If you're ever gonna do this you will
notice a huge difference, it just melts. Now moving on to the sauce and of course
we gotta make it special. Instead of using regular mayo I'm using Japanese
Mayo it tastes different and I like it. The next ingredient is a very special
Brazilian hot sauce. This one friends is not that expensive but the taste is very
good. But it's also very spicy so beware. And this is ketjap manis, is basically
sweet soy sauce. To put the sauce together I first started with the
Japanese mayo, followed by ketjap manis and finished it off with a Brazilian hot
sauce. Now mix it well and your sauce is done. This one has a very mature taste.
Now let's talk about cheese, I'm gonna be using three different kinds.
And the first cheese is Brie, it's a soft cheese that has a very unique taste. And
of course the second one is parmigiano-reggiano the real deal and
finally an aged grier. Combining all these cheese together should make a
wonderful sauce. I first started off by slicing the Brie.
A lot of people don't like to keep the outer edges but I say for a sauce is
absolutely fine. For the other two I just grated them. To make the sauce is
extremely easy I started with a little bit of butter. You want to keep that
under low heat to melt the butter slowly. Then I threw in all of the cheeses. Keep
under medium-low heat until all of the cheeses has melted. And by the time
you're done you should have an amazing and incredible cheese sauce. But now that
you've seen me making all the prep and we have everything ready,
I say it is enough talking and it is time to make some incredible
cheeseburgers. So let's do it!
Alright everybody here we have our beautiful burgers Angel. What do you
think? I haven't had a burger in a while. I know right cheeseburgers everybody it is
cheeseburgers isn't cheeseburger like the king of all burgers? Yeah. Yeah.
Cheeseburgers is the king cuz I know you don't like lettuce tomatoes and all that
stuff yeah. Yea that stuff is boring. With all that being said I say enough talking let's give it a try.
Is this one a smash burger cuz it look like two patties here. That's right you
already know everytime there's two patties this is my smash burger. yeah
I love the smash burger. Smash burger this one changed my life everybody cheers. Cheers buddy. Cheers you
should put the link up here for them. That's right if you have not seen that video
make sure you check it out.
There's not a lot to say this is a perfect burger for
every single scenario. It's quick and easy bro. Quick and easy cheap affordable
make this every single day. Well maybe not every day because that might not be healthy,
your doctor might be mad at you. That one is perfect we know. I agree. we know that one is good.
That was amazing if you never had a smash burger done correctly
everybody can make sure you check it out. Alright next time to try a second one
you ready? By the way it's Angel's birthday today. Happy birthday buddy thank
you thank you. Getting older ah? No I'm getting younger actually. alright let's
go to the second one.
Completely different experience. A mature
taste. What's that face Angel? It's a mature taste right. It's like,
this one here is for kids this one your grown up
you're dressed nicely maybe a little wine or something you are a nice
expensive beer. You know what I'm saying. What do you think? Dry aged? ha ha
That's my nephew!
That was easy. That's dry aged. But you could tell. Yeah oh right away. Oh you could 100%.
Yeah and the thing that i did. It has that funk. Right, right, right. This is a mature burger
everybody. That's all I can say. this burger came in with a suit and a tie. I get it, I get it.
I don't know which one is better you which one you
like better. I'm like saving space because usually, I know that
usually expensive goes hand-in-hand with a few things that I know and I'm a
little bit excited for that one bro.
Alright without further ado, you ready for the last one? Cheers everybody. Cheers.
You could tell what that is right away. How would you describe this one? Wagyu. Wagyu!
What else would you describe that's all you're gonna say? Huh? It's Wagyu.
So here's the deal, this is an occasion burger I would say. You know
what I mean? When you want to treat yourself and you say, you know what I
deserve it I work hard. This you can't have it every Sunday. No, you crazy your pockets will
not handle it. Your pockets will go down the drain. This you have like maybe once a
year maybe once every six months that kind of range. This is like exactly this one is speaking to
you're saying like it is time for you to treat yourself that's when you have a
burger like this, because this is an experience on itself. My biggest issue is
I love the smashburger, I love the dry aged burger and I love the wagyu burger. Which one do you like
better? What do you mean, you can't pick a winner? No. Why not? I's such a
different kind of burger each time. Yeah. That is just like you can't really give
it a winner. I get what you're saying
I 100% agree with Angel' you can't pick a winner because they're so different with
each other so it's like an occasion you want to treat yourself you have the
Wagyu burger everybody. You want to taste something completely different that
you've never tasted before try the dry-aged burger. You want to
have something for a lot of family members to be nice and happy you make
that smashburger. I'm sure either one will make anybody
happy. Anyway guys I hope you guys enjoyed this video. If you enjoyed this
