The Ultimate Expensive Burger Tasting with Adam Richman | The Burger Show

In the series premiere of The Burger Show, host Alvin Cailan teams up with food-TV legend Adam Richman (Man v. Food, Secret Eats) to discuss a hot-button issue in the burger world: the rise of gourmet, expensive burgers. With bespoke beef blends and luxury toppings like truffles driving prices through the roof, are the upgrades really worth it? Find out as the duo tries premium patties ranging from $23 to $295.

First We Feast's "The Burger Show" is a new web series that explores everything about modern burger culture—from the rise of Instagram-bait stunt burgers, to the enduring influence of regional styles—through the eyes of Eggslut chef, Alvin Cailan. Alvin's breakfast-sandwich empire in Los Angeles put him on the culinary map, but it's burgers that are his true passion. Now he's in NYC to understand what drives his obsession, and he's linking up with folks like Adam Richman, burger scholar George Motz, and Binging With Babish's Andrew Rea to help him along the way.

I like how YouTube is basically cable TV now 😂

5:20 I was not expecting that pronunciation of "croissant"

We went with a caramelized onion and bacon,

J-A-a-a-A-A-a-A-m-M-m-M.

"You have a restaurant, I have an appetite" sounds like the starting point of a strange super-hero duo.

*Always good to see the homie Alvin! The Burger Game lives on!*

I kinda of agree with Gordon Ramsay on hot ones when he talks about how its kind of ridiculous having super expensive burgers with gold leaf and stuff on them

"I'll be damned if that ain't Heinz ketchup" - Adam Richman, 2018

[leovomend]

remove gold and diamonds from all things food, if im paying 300 for a burger i want the money to come from the ingredients 100% not on decoration

[cnate]

This show is going to be awesome! And screw the press and critics, Adam Richman needs a show. Dude is pure talent gold!

"Burgers are proletariat" - Karl Richman

This is like a good version of those buzzfeed videos, because you actually have stuff to say

When I reviewed the Serendipity burger for Burger Weekly, I also had to tiptoe around the fact that it straight up just doesn't taste good. Was worried you'd say nice things for the sake of it, glad you didn't

*"We went with a carmalized onion and bacon... JaAaaaAM ~"*

[Shadowgallery]

Perfect timing. Just sat down on the shitter.

I'm digging this Adam Richmond/First We Feast colab. Y'all should do this more.

“I’ll be god damned if that ain’t Heinz Ketchup”

[mookiecookie]

Anyone else feel like this was one of the best non-bald-man-with-spicy-wings episodes?

[TheMrPalich]

I am jealous. Here in Russia, we have like 2-3 good burger restaurants. And there is nothing close to what you have in the USA.
Like we have some simple burgers with marbled meat and some cheese, hand-baked buns, vegs and sauces. But it's so simple, nothing experimental or creative.

Fuck. One day I'll pay you a visit, I hope.

Adam is a stand up guy. I really enjoy listening to his passion not only for food but music and anything else he talks about
