What is the best burger in the country?
@Richard Alexander Very good indeed!
Some people might roll their eyes, but hear me out. In New Mexico, Mcdonald's serve a classic double cheese burger topped with green chile (like most burger places in the state). There are of course places that serve better green chile cheese burgers in the state, but I have such good memories of eating them when I was a kid that it's the burger that I think of when I hear the word burger.
George Motz!
Nipps burger from Wa state
My favorite burger is the Green Chile Cheeseburger from Santa Fe Bite, formerly Bobcat Bite, in Santa Fe, NM.
How dare you peasants speak about burgers without George Motz? Blasphemy! Blasphemy!! Blasphemy..!!! Yes, I downvoted this video.
Well that not a burger... they are all too small!!
More Motz less repeats.
Cool video!!! I don't know if i would dig that bread at 3:12. But who knows? I'd have to try it to taste it.
Ahh.. the good old days, before the scamdemic..
2.5 million people have died 500 million in the US alone 1 of which was my mother so dont you fucking go on about this "scamdemic" bullshit when even the fucking president of the united states contracted it
Taste 👅 like heaven paradise foods!!!!! 🍱🍱🍱
wow re-edits of old stuff I've already seen
Adam rich man needs to be a host again
New Mexico got some great burgers Rex's hamburgers in Albuquerque Laguna Burger on the Laguna reservation or in Albuquerque and Owl Cafe in San Antonio NM
PEWDIEPIE SAID THAT HE WANTS TO COME ON THE SHOW. BRING ON PEWDIEPIE YOUR VIEW COUNT WOULD BE OUT THE ROOF
A bunch of unhealthy obese people! What a disgrace
these "unhealthy" people as you claim are multi millionaires and will die with more money than you have ever or will ever make.
I don't feel comfortable when I see overweight eating burgers
How big are "overweight eating burgers?"
Take a look at Cowspiracy and Forks over knives..
Lot of west coast love, not so much on the east coast. LA is overrated. There are a lot of great places not mentioned its disappointing.
I'm disappointed...and glad that an episode doesn't air more frequently. My fatass just wants it ALL!!! RN!!!!!
BRING GEORGE MOTZ BACK!!!!! DO IT NOW!!!!!
1/5 to go
Jakes in frisco texas
So is nobody talking about 04:40 where this guy clearly has bread on top of raw meat?
Smash burgers are shit for cheap 24h Cafe. Somebody has to say it, and I did
I like the counter of Apple Pan. I can't tell which burger 🍔 is best or good for me.
George Motz is needed asap
What if after that guy explained how the restaurant had been through four generations. He takes a bite and just goes “this is fucking disgusting”
I agree!! Plus Apple pan has some delicious pie too!
I'll take one of each please. Thank you
"Irish" bar lmao
I live 20 minutes from jacksboro and Herds burgers is still open thankfully
Apple pan looks like some west coast bs
What gave it away? That it's in LA? Smh
love this guy.... he lost weight too i can tell #livelongandeat
I feel like a time traveler! I've seen all of these already... I want new content.
Fosters Freeze Baby!
Some of the best places I’ve found C&D drive in-Boardman OR. Fred’s Meat & Bread- Atlanta GA Pollard Flat USA- Lakehead CA
The flappy cheese is not needed in my opinion
We need more Motz!!!!!
Egg sult is trash
4:38 fucking disgusting. Buns on top of raw hamburger.. Yuck!
I would watch a vlog of George Motz. The man is so interesting
I mean how many ways can they say the same thing every episode. We get it. Burgers are good in mostly every format. Not exciting
Cali would use sliced bread for a burger. Lol
Who is the guy in the first part?
I love seeing the big guy cringe at being forced to eat veggies. 🤣
Man am I stoned
George Motz
I wonder how many seasons this will go before Alvin dies from heart failure
Awesome colab with the boys!
Great recap, but feels like a pandemic filler episode.
They all look amazing
I really need to make a apple pan run. So bomb.
Johnny Rockets in UAE was the best burger i've had in my life, so far
Can’t argue with any of these
I'm gonna havr to try them all before I head out to burger heaven!
WE WANT MOTEZ. Not a fan of this guy
so thats where the burger show went! for some stupid health reason i decided to un-subscribe....nevermind i wont ever do that again! subscribed !
In the San Francisco Bay Area, check out the Deli Board in SOMA in SF, Double Decker in Hayes Valley in SF, and Val's Burgers in the town of Castro Valley. Those three spots are hidden gems that will blow your mind and arteries.
50% of comments: WHERE'S MOTZ Other 50%: Don't watch while hungry
Was this filmed long ago??
For all you outside of LA feeling like you're missing out. Apple Pan looks way better than it tastes
#3 is RAW!
Where’s the pimento burger
Nope. The best burger you'll ever have is the one made in your backyard, with beef, maybe some pork mixed in and love all around you.
burg
It's awesome that Herds made the list, but Kwickstop has to have the best burgers. They have beat anywhere I've been before.
Herd's Hamburgers is all you need. It makes you one with the earth/George Motz.
White mana?
I've seen my fellow fat man cook on multiple videos his stuff never makes me want to try it
We need more motz
great to have burger content, but i´m not digging Alvin I can´t point my finger on it, but something really throws me off with him. But burgers are love, burgers are live so I guess I´ll watch it.
Agree. Hard to watch someone who has no regard for their own health.
Sitting here eating my salad on my diet just hurting myself by watching this
get new content
Ham(burger) culture will always and forever exist.
Excuse me I have to clean the drool off my phone 😛
I have two local burger joints that I always support. The first is a drive-in that also makes the BEST Frozen Custard and the other is a place that not only makes an amazing Juicy Lucy, but also has a spicy chicken sandwich better & bigger than you'll get from any chain.
What about the Juicy Lucy that started in MN? Fantastic burger.
I miss George.
Both Alvin and George are both great.
Boring without Motz. Didn't complete it after noticing he's not there
Surely get Wee Man on for the wings? 💪🤯
I need to find the best Turkey burger spot
More Motz
Smash burgers 👎🏽 👎🏽 👎🏽... Lugers burger better then all these places. Apple Pan is mediocre at best. Peter Lugers is 1, Emily #2, Cassel #3, JG melon #4, white manna #5... that’s the list. Period end of story.
Not this guy! Bring back George!
No Teisted Root bison buger? This video reeks of wannabees.
#1 is bullsh!t.A solid 6 ouf of 10. Just like In & Out. Calfornians SUCKS a burgers and pizza.
"I want a burger... but you know what, I also want a half inch of lettuce" said nobody ever
I say it.

Yummy! Who's craving for some hamburgers now?
The best burger isthe onen from your home town dive that was there when you were growing up and hopefully has managed to survive the pandemic of 2020. After the smoke clears, we will see many of them have gone, never to come back.
Hey ! I am just starting out a channel all about cooking vegetarian, anyone who is interested, please give it a look 😊
I was promised more Motz....
I can’t watch this. My mouth is watering and I’m so hungry!
First we feast we only ever want George.
Interview Elon Musk!!!!!!!!
I feel like this show just blew three episodes worth of a load on this 7 minute one. I’d like to hear more about the history and the place - too bad
i don’t wanna hear it shake shack is better and it’s not even close
aguante Big Pons vieja no me importa nadaaa
What no wisconsin butter burger
This needs to be Georges show only, someone with actual knowledge as opposed to some big chungus that got stoned and cooked an egg once
Not only does alvin make the show worse but a dude that size has no business hosting a show about fast food
can we bring pewdiepie on the hot ones
More motz
