Every Way to Cook a Hamburger (42 Methods) | Bon Appétit

While you can make a burger out of almost anything -- chicken, turkey, fish, plants -- most people think beef when they think burgers. Well, at least that's what Amiel Stanek thinks. He's here today to show you every way to cook hamburgers using chuck beef. You can't go wrong with a classic cast-iron skillet burger, but don't write off other... let's say less orthodox techniques, like Hibachi grilled or ironed. Seriously, the ironed burger is actually really good. Conversely, we do not recommend the peanut butter mixed-in burger. Just don't.

[alexe]

everyone's talking about how he would eat literal live cows rather than cooked burgers, but not about how he had a fork next to the plate for every burger and never used it

[Kokorisu]

Amiel: *bites a live cow's shoulder* "hmmmm, a bit on the rarer side but still, mMM! yum!"

[daisykatie]

I really went into these comments looking for a single person saying they’re were all raw but did not expect every comment to be that

[oakns]

This mans ability to keep a burger dangerously underdone through any cooking method is impressive, almost a talent

[BonesYTC]

A skilled surgeon could bring 90% of those burgers back to life.

[Noah_Smartt]

Gordon Ramsey literally screams: "ITS

Amiel: "It's a bit overcooked"

[Max._Power]

*Amiel makes everyone upset by eating raw hamburger and calling it overcooked for 30 and a half minutes straight (42 ways)*

[BananaWrathful]

18:12 “I’m kinda scared to eat this I don’t wanna get sick”
The 15+ raw burgers he ate earlier: am I a joke to you

[anightforget]

Amiel: "this is the 'hot breath' method"
(breathes on the raw burger patty)
Amiel: "It's a little overcooked, but it's got a nice breath funk on it"

[jinxx]

Amiel: “Its a bit overcooked”

The burger: “Bruh Moo”

[Rekuiem]

lmao poor amiel get roasted so hard in the comments he's actually now more cooked than his burgers!

[kanauziaczek]

I like how he made a "tartare burger" and called it raw as if the other ones weren't

[johnoko]

Could you elaborate on what you mean by “cooked to temperature?”
Because “room temperature” doesn’t count

[michaelc.]

Y’all are talking about the pink burgers, I’m just concerned with him making mouth noises in post

Bun: Looks like gauze on a gunshot wound.

[libertyprime]

burger:*pained mooing"


amiel:good lord, this ones real burnt. guess thats my fault

[LymansLemons]

You all missed my favorite method, cooked.

[bennyoc]

Everyone's talking about Amiel's dangerously undercooked patties but he didn't toast any of his burger buns. Half of me wants to say that he's a psychopath

[jacobfredman]

11:23 "It tastes like a cafeteria burger"

Well usually cafeterias dont try to give food poisoning to people
