The ICE CUBE Burger Experiment, Surprising!

thank you raid shadow legends for sponsoring this video [Music] if there's one thing i love after steaks it's burgers i've even shared with you the burger that changed my life i mean take a look at this however if you are like me you like doing some research and i actually came across this article right here from buzzfeed it says that masterchef grant loves putting ice cubes on his burgers and that's genius i mean come on how can i not give this a try at the same time i'll be honest i'm extremely skeptical to see if this is gonna work but like i always say never knock something out until you try it and of course it just gives me another excuse to make some more amazing burgers so let's do it [Music] to make an amazing burger the first thing we need to start off is good meat and this is a beautiful choice grade we buy steak and to give the best chances for this burger to come out great using a rebuy should definitely help at the same time we all know that fat is flavor and if there's one thing choice grade steaks lack is fat but since we are making a burger we can actually control the amount we want for me at least i like my burgers at 80 20 which means 80 lean and 20 fat that will produce an amazing flavorful burger if there's one thing i've learned about making a lot of experiments is that you never throw anything away you can always use trimmings from briskets or whole loins that you buy anytime so never ever let anything go to waste now if you don't have a meat grinder you can actually do this 100 by hand however we all know that tools make lives a lot easier and if you plan on making a lot of good burgers at home you should have one but today i'm going to show you how you can use two large cleavers to get the job done now in case you don't have two cleavers you can always use a large knife and as you can see this one is a big boy but at the same time if you do have two cleavers use them because it does make the job a lot easier and that is something i definitely recommend it is not a big deal you just gotta put in the work and it is the original method of making burgers so if you do want to make a special burger at home there's no excuse as you can see once i was done this is what i was left with perfectly ground beef made at home and the most important part is that i know where this ground beef comes from now there's left to do is to combine everything together and separating four individual barriers to make things easy i like to use parchment paper now one of the important things you got to keep in mind whenever you're shaping your burgers is that you do not want it to compress too much heavy little gaps between meat and fat allows everything to render nicely which ultimately makes your burger taste ten times better so remember you are making a burger not meatloaf but once i was done shaping my burgers this is what i was left with four beautiful steak burgers ready for an ice cube that just sounds weird but hey that's our experiment today the interesting thing is that chef grant only uses regular ice cube but hey if we are here let's just go ahead and try other things so here's what i got the very first two rows are just plain ice the following two is actually black beer and the last ones are all beef stocks and the thought was instead of just adding plain water why don't we just flavor this thing and see how it turns out i want to be clear that that's not what masterchef grant does it just adds the ice by itself but hey if we are trying this madness let's just go all out and try everything i can think of now if you're wondering what kind of buns i'm going to be using that would be googa's buns if you have not tried googa's buns man you go ahead and make that recipe they are just awesome now let me give you a brief description on how the ice technique works the first thing we're gonna do is put the burgers on the grill and season them as the bottom part is being seared i will insert the ice cube right on top once that sear is completely done then i'll be flipping it to the opposite side now my hope is that the ice will not fall off but hey that's how chef grant does it and that's exactly what i'm gonna do and the true reason for this technique is that it develops a much juicier burger i mean it does make sense you're actually adding liquid to it but the real question is does it work well that is to be determined right now and if there's one thing that goes well with burger is cheese and for that i'm gonna be using provolone but now that you know how this experiment is gonna go down the next thing to do is to cook it i know if i make this burger medium rare it will be extremely juicy so to really test this method i'm gonna do the way grant does it which is medium now if by the time i'm done cooking these beautiful burgers and if they are still juicing at medium temperature that is a true test so now i say it is enough talking and it is time to make some burgers so let's do it [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] before moving forward i want to thank today's sponsor raid shadow legends you guys already know i really like rigged shadow legends and here are

mine actually has almost no hole everybody okay you ready for this one cheers everybody second one looks juicy i definitely like the flavor of the first one more okay it's juicy even though it's cooked medium and not medium rare it's still juicy yeah bite it right on the middle angel don't bite it on the side oh my god you feel that flavor it's big it's this beer it is how did you know i could taste it you could taste it right away you can taste there's some beer in there everybody i like it you you put beer ice yes on a burger you look like you're gonna slap me dude take it easy it's not my idea yeah i like the first one all right are you ready for the third one now you know some weird stuff going on you know what to expect am i ready for the third one yeah should be good third

ice on your perimeter if you're gonna cook it like medium well or medium but i don't know about medium rare i think it will not be that good but the only way to find out is if you give them a try do
