There's one thing that I think everyone in the
world can agree, burgers are the best invention there ever was. There's something very special
whenever you put meat bun and cheese together. This combination of flavor are just incredible
and I have done so many different experiments with it. However there's one experiment that
I've never done let me explain when I watched my friend Nick Digiovanni cooked a Japanese
Wagyu A5 and giving it to Mr Beast I thought what a waste this is absolutely ridiculous. But
in the end they seem to like it quite a bit so how can I assume if something is so ridiculous
if I've never done it? Well let's see because my goal today is to find out the best kind of meat
there is to make burgers as when you go to the supermarket you have so many different options.
And the first one is going to be this, one of the cheapest cut of meat you can find. They are
completely frozen, come ready to go. and they are extremely convenient. But take a closer look,
I want you to notice two things; the meat is quite compressed. That's because it's massively
produced and in order to compensate for that in texture they create these little holes on top. So
since this is the cheapest version and the most convenient let's find out how it's gonna stack up
as my second version is this one; pre-ground meat that you can buy it on your supermarket. One of the
most important things you got to look forward to is the percentage between fat and meat. Usually
they come 80/20, sometimes a little bit higher. Remember fat is flavor. Now to make Smash Burgers
all you gotta do is to make some balls. I like to make them three ounces each, I find that that is
the perfect amount. And once I was done with all of my balls they're now ready. the next version is
going to be a little bit fancier, I am grounding my own meat. I'll be doing a combination between
brisket and Chuck. At least to me the flavors that come out of this made out of burgers is awesome,
but again the important thing is the ratio of fat we're talking about 20% fat and 80%
lean. Because once everything was done my balls are now ready. And now for the last version I am
using this a Japanese Wagyu A5 steak. This is the greatest meat in the world! Now what I'm about to
tell you is mind-blowing and here's why; My make dealer charges $300 for this steak. If you go to
Salt Bae's restaurant he has one burger for $300, my good friend Nick even made a video about
it. Now with one steak you are able to make eight ounce balls and you're still gonna have a little
bit left, this means that if you're doing a triple decker you will be able to make three burgers. And
in essence each Burger will cost you a hundred dollars. And if you take that in consideration it
is still ridiculously expensive for a burger, but never like the one you will pay in Salt Bae. But trust
me even though I have all of this information doing this right now just hurts my feelings.
Grinding up a Japanese Wagyu A5 is sacrilege, but we're doing it anyway. And once I was done with
the grinding this is what it looks like. If I'm not mistaken this is the first Japanese Wagyu A5
that has ever been ground up like this, and it just hurts. But my hopes is that this is going
to be worth it. I have no idea and we're about to find out right now because once I was done
making all of the balls they are now ready to go. Now I will be making my special sauce to go
along with it it's a mix of mayo, ketchup, mustard and Worcestershire sauce. And of course to keep
everything even I'll be using American cheese. Because now that I have everything ready the only
thing left to do is to go ahead and make some incredible Burgers. To keep everything even all
of them will be cooked exactly the same. Because now I say it is enough talking and it is time
to make some incredible Burgers. So let's do it! [music] I know it looks good but before we try it, I have the biggest announcement I've ever
made in this channel; my cookbook [music] No, no, no, no, no! We are not doing that! This is gold! The book is called Guga Breaking the Barbecue Rules. It's available for you to pre-order right now and it

Thanks again for your incredible support I am sure you guys gonna love this book as much as I do. I am

everybody, here we got our beautiful burgers today gentlemen. This is definitely beautiful, I don't
think you've ever cooked this many burgers. -Nope it is the first time I cooked this many burgers for
a video. -I think you need to sing the song. -I'm glad you said that Angel because that's exactly
what I was trying to do. -Let's go! -Burger video! Burger video! Woo! This is crazy! I don't know where my Burgers
begin and Guga's ends. Like this is a lot of burgers Guga. -I got a few things to say I
want to cover it up right now. Every other burger that I cook the flare-ups is insane. There's
so much fire going on because of the fat but the very last burger which you guys know what it
is there is zero flare-ups regardless of how hot that griddle was. I've always said it when you
eat this the fat is very different from regular fat. There is a proof on the pudding right there
I was not expecting that at all. -I'm just glad that wasn't a disclaimer, because there's times
we've had a great we have great video and then Guga goes; "wait before we start eating, don't try
this at home". -I'm just glad it wasn't that. -I'm not gonna lie, that's true. -Enough talking let's
give this a go right now. Cheers everybody! -Cheers. -Hmm. -I'm actually pleasantly surprised. Yeah it's
good. -It's a good burger, but it's not your normal Smash Burger. The level of deliciousness is not
up to par with Guga. -The deliciousness! -This is a good, this is a good burger but it's not a
Guga Burger. -It's also a little thicker than the usual burger that you do. -That's a fact, it's
much thicker than I normally do. That's our baseline, let's go down to the next one. Please get
in guys, let's see. -Oh this one looks like the usual one. -Ah really? All right let's give it a
try to the second one. Cheers everybody! -Cheers! -Oh! -That's a step up for sure.
-That's some burger video baby. That's a burger video right here. -Leo you look
so happy. -I am in heaven right now, this is my paradise. -Couldn't have to say it any better, it is
completely different than the first one. Angel? -I wanted you guys to keep talking bro, I'm not
gonna lie to you. Am I in heaven? -Yeah I think you're in heaven because guys this is the burger
that changed my life. -I'm telling you it is amazing. -I want to marry this burger so I can eat it all
the time. I want to eat it every day. -So good, so delicious, definitely a step up from the previous
burger. You guys agree? -I agree you took the words right out of my mouth. It's more flavorful, it's
the beefier, it's juicier. -I'm ready to see what's up with this next one. Enough talking let's go for
the next one guys. Okay let's do this, cheers. -Cheers. -Oh my God I changed my mind I want to divorce
this burger so that way I can marry this one! instead, because this one is better -Leo's a cheater
bro. -Not a cheater, I'm divorcing and I'm moving on okay. -But why are you divorcing? -This burger is
not as good as this burger. -No you went and you took a bite of a different Burger. -But let;s be 100% honest,
yes there is a difference. But, is the difference that much bigger? -It's not monumental but it you
can definitely tell the difference. I feel that it's in the juiciness of this one particularly I
feel like it's juicier than the previous one and slightly beefier. -So far this one winning. -Really?
-The last two we just tried are definitely better than the first one. And this last one we just tried
is the best so far. -Yeah there is a difference but not that humong mental. Humongumental? -Like yeah I don't know
what word that was. -Hugmongumental boys a new word. -That's a new word right there. -Invented by Guga. Humongumental I like
that. -I think you guys got the point what I'm trying to say. Okay let's dig in for the very last one.
Notice that it's even on a different plate yeah. This plate more fancy. -You just wink? -Yeah i just went like this. Wink at them.
They like it when I wink. -I have two top buns. -What happened there's
no meat. -This is this is like an Oreo burger. -Leo go like this show to them. -Top, look top, that's
what I got. Also show them uh that even though you have three patties there those patties are
real thin. Enough talking let's dig in. Cheers! -What? -Oh! -There's zero resistance. -Wow! -This is the
softest most juiciest burger I've ever had. -It's taking me more energy to chew the bun than it is
the meat. -Oh wow it's so good. -Are you crying Guga? -I, I am speechless right now. -You know my favorite
part about this burger is? -Hum? -How crispy it is. I feel like it's much crispier than the other ones. It's
juicier, it's richer, it's freaking incredible. -This is an experience that you we might never have
again, so please enjoy this burger. -I don't know if you guys noticed my tone of voice completely
changed for a reason everybody. -Yeah -I thought honestly that this was a complete waste of time.
Wow, this is crazy! -I think it's the fattiness because when you bite it it literally coats your
entire mouth. -I even feel bad eating it. Man it's so good! -Is it wagyu? -This is a Japanese Wagyu A5. -What! -Do
you guys think it's worth it? -Honestly I would say yeah. I would say it's a such a very different
experience for a burger, it's so elevated it's so much better, it it's such a unique experience
that everyone should I think try it once. -I think that's it, you say to what it is right there. One
time, never again in your life. -I don't think that's the best way to eat an A5 wagyu bro. -Let's be very
clear, if it's your first time having a Japanese Wagyu A5 steak, cook it as a steak. -Yeah. -And if
you want to experience this later, yes please do so. Because this is an experience that is quite
unforgettable. I can't believe I'm actually saying that it is worth doing it that hurts the soul,
because this is something I will never forget. And don't forget guys the pre-order of the book
