So here are some thoughts I had over the Booze Burger now that I watched it:
1. After the weird oboe intro he has going now, Jack has a new shirt that is pretty damn cringe. He almost certainly bought it from the Trump store. I hereby dub it the "Rapturous Retard", since it's clear he wants that to happen so he can laugh at the haters in his delusions when they all go to hell.
2. He's trying the "make sure you're still subscribed" line, when in reality he should be saying "click the bell". He has 500k subs; that's not the problem.
2b. Not that it matters since his shit videos already drive people away. Fun fact: he invents more people to give excuses to himself on why his channel's cratering. Absolutely pathetic.
3. "If it's gud" yeah okay you lying little narc. We all know he will never admit to fucking up.
4. The ingredients include my least favorite type of cheese, an unspecified blend of ground beef, a fuckload of slapchopped onions, that shitty barbecue dry rub, gowrlick powder, a whole pound of bacon, and a 750 Ml bottle of Gentlemen Jack Daniels.
4b. Personally hate Colby Jack cheese, but of course fatty bought it due to delusions of reference. He never does specify exactly what ratio of fat to protein that burger meat is, so I'm going with that 60-40 wagoo meat he likes getting so much, and we know why he bought such a big bottle of booze.
5. Jack wastes an inordinate amount of time trying to refute the haters that no, he doesn't merely buy things with Jack in the name, and also shows an inordinate amount of interest in cooking with booze beyond how they add flavor.
5b. He says he just wants the woodiness of the liquor, but you can tell this is an alkie desperately craving some chugs. Also very interesting he bought a bottle just small enough to hide in a paper bag for public intoxication purposes.
6. He just calls the burger "meat". I would not be shocked if much like Polpork he just sees burger as its own cut. Hell, at this point even it's own animal.
7. Fat fuck hides how he doubled the recipe by using a stupidly huge red ceramic measuring cup. When we get to when he's assembled the patties you'll see that he's used at least two bags worth.
7b. Source: I used to eat as many cheeseburgers as
@Randy Lahey as a kid; I know when I see a bigger than pound patty.
8. Jack then pours horrid amounts of seasoning into his burger meat and mixes them in. I don't remember the rub ingredients off the top of my head, but two that spring to mind are cane sugar, which will burn, and garlic. The latter matters because of course Jack then adds horrid amounts of garlic powder into it too, due to his fucking dead tastebuds.
9. "You can never overseason" ~ Jack on his 4 strokes caused by high salt intake
10. Jack shockingly lets his onions soften a decent bit. I should note however he considers them done the moment any caramelization, ie the browning, begins.
10b. While this is perfectly fine for a burger regardless, I've
seen the recipe. He needed to actually let them cook a decent bit longer, since those onions are supposed to be on the jammier side.
11. Jack then pours several large splashes of booze into them and lets them cook down. He actually is rather proud and happy at what he's made, and you know what? I actually can and will give it to him. He did pull out a solid W here. He made a mostly good set of onions; a bit boozy perhaps due to cook time, but still.
12. He then fucks it up by not cleaning out all the onions, and then puts the borgl into the skillet.
13. One cut to the flip later, and it's burnt on the outside and still partially pink. Now to be fair, based on the sounds made by the skillet it probably wasn't at stupid high heat. It sounded about where you should have it actually. That's just a consequence of both not cleaning out the skillet AND using a rub with sugar... which burns at higher heats.
14. Jack also doubles the cheese on his borgar, and that's fair I sometimes do that. I may hate colby, but it's not the issue. What is is that he doesn't help it melt by using a lid for a bit, since it won't do that easily.
15. Jack then brags about toasting his buns and throwing a mild tantrum over the haters critiquing him for not doing that. Thing is the most criticism I tend to give to him on bread is picking the wrong one for the job, so I guess it's him lashing out at perceived slights.
16. Jack then stupidly thinks you can reduce the booze into a thicker glaze to drizzle onto the burger. Hypothetically you could, but you'd need to thicken it with a roux and the fond that he's deglazing from it to actually make it work.
16b. Also you notice how the booze bottle's near empty? Methinks someone is secret drinking.
17. Jack then assembles the burger, and of course the fat faggot had to double the toppings. The upper layer of onion and bacon was all you really needed.
18. He then calls it a Big mac, even though that has a middle slice of bread for filling but okay weirdo.
19. Jack then proceeds to ruin the burger completely by drizzling the grease/booze goo all over the damn thing, rendering it a soggy disgusting fucking mess.
20. And it looks like he bought two flasks, since that bottle is damn near full. Double the recipe, double the alcoholism.
21. He then gushes extensively due to being able to get several nips of booze that Mommy-wife won't notice, and proceeds to love every part of the sandwich but the bun and the burger itself.
21b. He only really tastes the onions, bacon, and booze.
22. He labels this soggy and sloppy mess a home run recipe and is pretty proud of it. Ironically if he didn't pour that fucking drizzle and cut out half the onions and bacon, I'd actually give it to him and say it was mostly edible. Barring the colby. And probably the fact the burger tasted burned and was still too raw for me.
Jack managed to both succeed and fail this round IMO.
