Gordon Ramsey would be proud of those eggs. He always says that to know if someone is a good chef they have to be able to make creamy scrambled eggs and this dude sure know how to make them.
Grodon Raseym
Ill eat that shit but scrambled eggs like that are kind of gross. I can do sunnyside or easy fried eggs but fuckin fluffy soft scramble weirds me out
@@forevershampoo Scrambled soft weirded me out too...until I tried it. Now I never go another way. If a restaurant's chef can't make it, I don't go back. Its just gooey and warm and homey 🤗💜
@@TahtahmesDiary need hotsauce
That tip with mixing the butter with the eggs BEFORE heating was huge. I have steadily been improving my egg recipe but I had never heard that piece of advice before and it turned out great.
sean evans might be the best interviewer out, so prepared, professional but still relatable and likeable. who else agrees??
Where's Wally Same
He is the Dr. Pepper of interviewers
Where's Wally u are right. It's something about him that makes me want to watch. Even if I don't know the guests, because he's interviewing i always watch. He's awesome
sean evans is a great interviewer but he cant top nardwuar
Him and Joe Rogan are impeccable. They shit all over that creep-tard Nardwuar
He abbreviated Breakfast Sandwich BC and nobody mentioned it in over a year's worth of comments...i'm amazed by that.
"BEC" bacon egg and cheese. Quintessential NY breakfast sandwich
Your cameraman and the editor are killing it.
TheWanderer thank you! I appreciate it
thanks man :) we work hard
we try our best
i'm from the 19th century, how are they killing it? It seems fine to me.
Im not really a cameraman, i just wanted to fit in
I've been cooking my eggs with butter lately rather than oil (I'm done with sprays) as well as on medium-low heat and using a rubbery spatula and I've already noticed the difference in my eggs. But starting with a cold pan is something I never considered.
Gonna try this today!
SEAN EVANS U FKN JOHNNY SINS LOOKING CNT! WE LOVE YA
Whoop perry First We Yeast.
I bet they gonna get asa Akira to play the Asian chick that comes out with Sean Evans
Whoop perry First we Fist
HAHAHA THAT WAS A GOOD ONE!!
“The egg certainly is an egg. And the bun! That bun is made of bread! Gotta love it. You do have that sriracha mayo sauce on there too. All made in a kitchen. Great job”
Joking aside you gotta love Sean ❤️
Hahaha... Nice editing. Going from spoon to spatula like that as if I wouldn't notice! Ya Busted!
THE MAGIC OF THE INTERNET LOL
Bruh I paused the video to read the comments, and after reading your comment I unpaused and was on that exact part lol #staywoke
Oh, 7:25 lol
jimbo jones i
jimbo jones did u see the skinny hand? lol
cutest part when the chef says "no big deal" and Sean gets all happy haha
Rachel Copacetic 🍆
3:19 Sean's face as he hear the word sriracha
just sriracha ain't no big deal.
tommaso faoro alvin dropping hints

Sandwich 1: McDonalds
Sandwich 2: Starbucks
Sandwich 3: Dunkin' Donuts
U da real MVP
DaBassist wasn't one from bk?
GoldFitch you're thinking about the croissant bun sandwich. That's the Starbucks bacon cheddar sandwich. Also referenced to Starbucks when Sean says "they try something artisanal with their sandwiches".
Guessed sandwich 1 and 3 right away. Wasn't sure about 2, until Sean said artisanal, and then I was like, "Probably, Starbucks." Can't think of any other major East Coast chain that could be accused of making artisanal breakfast sandwiches.
DaBassist oh lol croissant made me think bk
i instantly tried this at home, did it 3 times now and it is getting better and better everytime. love this sandwich :)
4:04 to hear Sean start rapping to the background music
*says never use cheddar, always use bacon* ... *Uses cheddar, doesn't use bacon*
Yea that caught me too -- I think the cheddar threw me off more than the bacon - he doesnt do bacon because he is LA coming to NYC and doesnt want to insult NYC by saying "I can make a better bacon egg and cheese"
Lawrence Weibman Ya I know what you mean
Lawrence Weibman I gotta say that I have seen a lot of poor excuses in my time, but that is the poorest excuse ever. New York isn't known for their bacon egg and cheese, but if they were then still no one would be angry about him adding an amazing ingredient.
dude BECs are the breakfast sandwich in NYC. It's where they came from.
He means that the Starbucks breakfast sandwich shouldn't have cheddar, because once stored & mass-produced, it loses its moisture - whereas American cheese is processed, and keeps its "gooey-ness." Alvin Cailan's breakfast sandwich is fresh, so the cheddar is okay.
Man, this guy is spot-on about the bread. Stale bread ruins the entire meal. He gets what everyone else seems to miss.
lmao at 3:20
Sean looking at Alvin like "You are a genius!"
The genius of the way they censored brands in this episode
As soon as they mentioned ‘fake artisan’ I knew who they were referring to.
Anybody else really happy that they did not diss on the Egg McMuffin too much? I mean they literally hit the nail on the head! it's consistent , it tastes good and let's be honest it's probably the best thing McDonald's has to offer.
its the best thing on mcdonalds menu still years later haha. love it. for me its easily 4.5 out of 5 for breakfast item.
McDonald's Sausage McMuffin is fire.
NumbCorns 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Good in a hurry sure. But fire, nah not really
I usually don't have my mouth water while watching cooking shows, this completely shattered that, I want that so badly.
I produced this I'm happy to hear that!
I feel like smoked salmon would make this sandwich even better!
I wholeheartedly agree!
Nope get out of here
Absolutely 😎
Fuck your right
Agreed
Real good vibes between these two, more Alvin!
Congrats on 1 million subs! Well deserved
Sean Evans you are the man! one of my favourite TH-camrs. been so addicted to Hot Ones and love this stuff too, do more food type reviews!!
I love that Sean isn't a chef. He brings honest, salt of the earth opinions to elevated (and not so elevated) cuisine.
I like how they danced around where they were getting their sandwiches . we still knew from the blurry camera hints and dialogue
I was wondering why they did that, normally they're just like "this burger is from Shake Shack" or whatever
I made his version of this sandwich and holy shit it was really good. It's become one of my new regular breakfast go to's now! I use lightly toasted challah bread instead though since it helps maintain structural integrity and the fluffy texture of it really suites the smooth eggs. I also put the siracha mayo on both slices (as well as adding a bit of soy sauce and lemon juice to the mayo mixture). I also use both cheddar cheese and havarti cheese. The sharpness of the cheddar does a great job at cutting through all those other flavours and the creaminess of the harvarti really suites the texture of the sandwich.
Believe it or not, the cheese is gonna hold it all together. Sean takes first bite and half the egg oozes out.
congrats on reaching 1M!
best channel on youtube
sillyitis thanks
Thanks!!!!!1qqq51!?!!!!
His method of how he cooked his eggs very similar to French style cooking. Good stuff. I used to make them a different way for my family then tried the French style. It’s the only way they want them now
"stepped on bread situation" wow, that is so a thing that ive never had a name for
Sriracha Mayo...Hellmanns mayonnaise and Sriracha, mix that together and Boosh!
big boy almost shed a tear when Sean reached for the sandwich
That 4th sandwhich is amazing. I love those hometown egg sandwhiches that are so real and barely hang into the roll.
You know where it’s from?
"what's makes a good breakfast sandwich"
"Well it has to be hot"
*So that's what i was doing wrong this whole time*
Soft egg sandwiches are the way we ate them in Detroit at any diner or Coney island. I used to love egg sandwiches. I'm going to visit Detroit this weekend, I think I'll order that.
Last time I was this early, Sean had hair.
Sean was born bald
Slick Boy McGee haha isn't everyone born bald?
Nice
Ivan Lim nah look it up lotsa babies got hair at birth
Awe someone doesn't like themselves so they hate on others lol
First we feast drinking game:
Take a shot every time sean says “Action”
I will eat breakfast food ANYTIME of the day because breakfast food is the best! I'm also hungry now. P.S. Sean don't feel bad! I have a hard time cracking eggs too.
I'm watching this while eating a breakfast sandwich. Can't get no better.
META!
0:32 so Breakfast Sandwich is now Breakfast Candwich, the perfect BC.
That's BS!
BEC. bacon egg cheese
My scrambled eggs are never _as_ soft as that [ because it's a technique I haven't tried yet] but _man_ is he on point about cheese being a glue that keeps it all in.
Sure, I can make an egg patty [even a McD style muffin egg]. But just trust me when it comes to the scramble, cuz you're gonna love it.
When do you upload a new video? When I'm hungry. Every. Single. Time. And I can't wait, so I watch the videos famished.
3:17 - Lol that "it's no big deal" face
Person 1: Hey what's your favorite restaurant. Mine was Toasted but I don't know if I like them anymore.
Person 2: My personal favorite is probably... Eggslut?
Person 1: What?
Person 2: Nevermind.
You need to try Bagel house in Astoria! Bacon, egg and cheese on an egg everything bagel with salt pepper and ketchup. Best breakfast sandwich I've ever had
$11 a sandwich.....40,000 sandwiches a month.....that's $440,000 a month and $5,280,000 a year.
Hey that's pretty good!
in revenue. actual profit will be a third of that
That's a WHOLE lotta chicks
Minus building rent, utilities, employee wages, advertising, taxes, etc.
username60737 1,000,000 in gross profit, 300,000 in net profit :(
I enjoyed watching his technique for cooking the scramble.
what was the 4th one?
As they said, any nyc corner deli will give you that
You guys finally hit a mill. Congrats.
Chick-Fil-A has awesome breakfast sandwiches too, shame they weren't in on this
Dunkin Donuts Pretzel croissant bacon, egg, and cheese is pretty bomb too
Burgers&Biceps Yeah, no idea why they went with the bagel from DD-- their croissants are way better.
anybody else lol when he said 'a little bit of butter' and dropped that brick in
Why are Sean's stars going backwards?
Anthony Ruan It doesn't matter whether the stars are added from left to right or right to left. Whatever the filled in space is, is what he rating he gave. The opposite being the empty space. Though, he says what he gives it so it doesn't matter.
Anthony Ruan You should understand what fractions are and that's all that you need to know.
AKL ZEN what do broken bones have anything to do with this?
Anthony Ruan Nothing.
Think Street Fighter.
Tried it in Vegas.... best best best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had
i know someone who once bit a horse to death
It's really nice to see someone make proper scrambled egg, you go to any pub or restaurant in the uk and they will always give it to you overcooked, and people freak out when they see proper scrambled egg, me response to them is always "you might as well make an omelette and chop it up.
miss me with the siracha mayo and onions. it needs saltyness. definitely bacon or sausage or both.
Sean's face when the guys said Siracha lmao
just taught me a new & improved way to hook up some eggs ✊
Good luck on finding the perfect method to making them, it's a bit tricky for awhile to get them to that texture while being thoroughly cooked.
I normally get hungry watching the show , but this took the croissant absolutely my favorite part of eating 🤤
you know this dood likes food
He obviously likes food that's garbage though. I mean, the first one is a damn egg mcmuffin.
I just made that and it was just unbelievable. Especially the scramble was so freaking good.
Definitely was not expecting his name to be Alvin!!
🙃🙃
If only one modern food commentary can keep from calling a recipe a "situation". It's not a situation. It's eggs.
bro got the creepiest beard ever.
birthofthacool 82 you cant consider that shit a beard
lol. now that you've mentioned it. haha
Weird beard
I was thinking the same thing. Wtf is on his face. Cut that shit or grow it.
"add a little bit of butter" throws a quarter stick in there lmfaoo
Never trust a skinny chef
Jay Julio would you trust a muscular chef, though?
Existential Crisis They gotta eat good and clean so yeah
Dude. Time to cut back. Not good
Never trust a fat chef because he eat all the fucking food
Said no master chef ever
1 million subs!!!! Congratulations guys
Thankfully you were able to get an interview with him before he dropped dead.
You guys should really try and get Brian Shaw on First We Feast. A monster of a man, all around great guy, love to see how he handles hot wings.
Devon Larratt, too.
5:04 Did they just put that much fucking butter for a little bit of scrambled eggs? WTF
GFkilla17 that's why restaurant food tastes better than what most people make at home, Shit tons of butter.
And not afraid of salt.
Yeah, that's why the chef is like 3 chefs.
Poop
learn some french cooking techniques usually a french omelette calls for three times as much butter. no joke.
sean evans is my hero.
Hey Sean, you guys didn't list the breakfast sandwiches you had, but where can I get that the last sandwich that you gave a 4.9 to?
Christopher Aizen Any bodega in N.Y. City.
The sausage,egg, and cheese croissant from D&D will always be the Jordan of breakfast sandwiches for me
"I put the butcher knife to her neck and said if you wanna live to see
tomorra, you better start frying them eggs a lil better, cuz im tired of
eating sloppy, slimy eggs"
You better start cookin these eggs a lil better than what you been cooking em
this channel is blowing up.
great content. i fucking love great food and cooking. you guys highlight the passion. keep it up!
"a little bit of butter"
you just put half a stick casually in a pan of 3 eggs
Funny Valentine lol ikr
He put like a table spoon, the fuck?
How does one measure butter on a spoon without it being melted? By the size of the spoon or the height of the solid butter? Serious question. Lol.
Thats about 1tbsp. Like a small knob not half stick.
Matthew S. That is a little bit of butter, to his big ass.
"add a little bit of butter" *huge scoop of butter* lol good lord
Good cooking always has a lot of butter.
What happened to the spam? The kings hawaiian roll.... this dude changed
That was something he whipped up for munchies, pretty sure it was off menu, this is their staple dish at their restaurant.
Alvin Cailan is my spirit animal.
get gordon ramsay on hot ones finally man!
Ales Vytopil nah. Anthony Bourdain
Your wish is granted
That was a bad episode of Hot Ones
"People are a little squeamish on it because they've never had it, you're probably thinking oh man like that's just going to fall apart when I eat it"
Then the thing proceed to fell apart on the first bite lol.
Sriracha, no big deal
You guys should go to Smorgasburg in Brooklyn! They're small food festivals every weekend (Williamsburg on Saturdays & Prospect Park on Sundays).
I love Alvin
I'm so happy they allow Sean to take a break from his mouth breaking hot sauces.
Starbucks' bacon Gouda is amazing
The chorizo one is good too!
Ah man, It is 7.35pm here in Perth Western Australia and now all i want is breakfast...cheers guys :)
that means the video was a success! thanks for watching (I produced it)
Great work Lawrence. Totally a succsess. Love these vids :)
He got the egg recipe from Gordon Ramsay
scrolled waaaay too far for this
I am one from sweden who follows you and i love all your hamburgers that you have done and sometime i will test them
Why bleep out the names of restaurants? It's not illegal talk about their products lol
I also don't get. Ren & Stimpy over at GoodMythicalMorning have all the logos all over the place and they don't exactly treat things with utmost respect.
Maybe it's because Eggslut is in the same business as all those other egg sandwich places?
Artsificial lol did you get auto corrected from Rhett and link to ren and stimpy
No its not illegal, but they can get sued to shit of they arent careful.
LMFAO REN AND STIMPY
1. McDonalds - Egg McMuffin
2. Burger King - Croissanwich
3. Braums (I think?) - Bagel Sandwich
4. No clue
U guys have me so anxious for tomorrow morning
Breakfast Sandwich? What happened? Let me guess, someone stole your sweetroll.
Calvin is my fucking culinary hero his love for breakfast sandwiches and burgers speaks to my soul and his egg game is on point
he looks like he needs to eat more bacon....
Yeah, great episode! You must've graded those sandwiches on a scale of 1-5 "crappy fast food shit". I'm going to try Alvin's way of making scrambled eggs tomorrow morning... they looked great and I'm good with soft scramble. I usually add a bit of cream cheese to my eggs and whip them with a handheld blender... creates soft, fluffy eggs with a bit of salt already in them, but Damn Dude... I'm trying his way! Beautiful!
Talked shit about cheddar being dry and then used not only cheddar but foodstamp flappy cheddar squares lmao wtfff
My hypothesis is that the egg provides enough wet when you just barely cook it. That egg is at the very beginning of scrambled whereas the sandwich he was complaining about had probably a fried egg in it. That being said, anything with scrambled egg in it I will eat with a knife and fork because you will lose 50% of the egg eating it with your hands.
Ryan MB you can buy any kind of cheese with foodstamps lmao even papa Murphys
the cheddar works well with the soft scramble actually because the eggs provide a moisture that a harder scramble or fried egg wouldn't.
justus gonzales
Some restaurants purposefully use that processes American cheese for the gooey mouthfeel.
Eggslut is a brilliant word... That's more than half of the genius behind the breakfast.
