Can confirn. US' McDonalds is disappointing and would eat at any other country's McDonalds. (Tried 4 country's McDonalds. Somehow almost all of them are so much better.)

There is one burger from McDonalds I actually really like. (But I think its a special mainly for Germany) However most of the Burger they make, have little to no sauce. So I have a really good chance to die of dehydration when eating a burger.
Please do a "But Better" episode of Panera Bread's menu. I don't want to tell you what to get but they have soups, salads, sandwiches, bowls(with or without chicken), flatbreads, bread loafs that you can buy, pastries, cookies, and other desserts. Very good food!

Papa bullying my favourite fast food sandwich is literally the biggest slap in the face. 🥺 I unironically love fillet-o-fish and I love the crumbed fish they use! And the plastic cheese (though the half cheese on his order was absolutely doggin, McDonald’s really don’t care abt their filet-o-fishs 😂) and I love the McDonald’s buns 🥺 the taste and smell is really nostalgic for me for some reason.
I love him, but sometimes he's a bit of a diva. Not to mention I've never had McDonald's bags that stink as much as he gets. Maybe it's the McDonald's??
I recently stumbled across PAPA, and I have to say, I have watched most of your very entertaining videos, and they've helped me reaffirm my love for the culinary arts as well as make me smile. Thank you Papa
The reason this was made was because a McDonald’s was near a really catholic (not sure I think it was catholic) town and for a day they would fast but for some reason fish was allowed that McDonald’s sales would drastically drop during that day and they needed a idea so they made the filet o fish and their sales were back to normal again Edit:I said this just in case people are confused why McDonald’s still has this despite removing flops before like the mc rib
So I made these and they were pretty excellent. I did just the fish, not the buns, but I have made the buns in the past so I can attest to their greatness. I simply wanted to make some fried fish. I did deviat slightly. I used Season Salt instead of Old Bay as I didn't have Old Bay and my wife isn't a fan. For procedure my only change was to double batter my fish. I didn't do this for any flavor reasons, I just had some fish that was already showing some signs of wanting to fall apart when I was battering it so I hit it with a second coat to make sure it stayed togehtwhile frying. It did result in a crispier crust since double battered of course, but honestly it didn't impact fry time at all (4 minutes per batch) and it gave a bit more of the flavor since more batter/crispier. 10/10 would recommend. Would say for sure the Old Bay would have been excellent as well if I had some. Do think the double batter was a good idea as well. He doesn't mention it, but based on his outcome I'd be surprised if Josh didn't double batter his.
It's kinda telling with the "this sandwich should never have existed" part of the description that he probably didn't even know that Lent was a thing. Not surprising considering A) How Horrifically Baptist the South is and B) How Horrifyingly Anti-Catholic Southern Baptists are.
@@ProjectBlackweather Wtf are you talking about? He just made a Fish Sandwish, an excellent one at that. His surname is Jewish by the way, so if anything, he shouldn't be expected to know what lent is lol. What the actual f*** are you on about?
@@qweqwe1324 From the description verbatim "A sandwich that should have never existed? The decision is up to you" He classistly made a fish sandwich whilst belittling the OG and people who it eat it. "Who wants this111?!?1?" Catholics during Lent. If Josh's head wasn't so far up his own ass he'd have learned that he can make these meals "better" without being a classist wank about it., but he's not gotten the message since this isn't the first time he's been classist.
@@ProjectBlackweather when he said it shouldn't exist, he was hating on the mcdonald's sandwich. he literally says at the end that more fish sandwiches, tacos, etc should exist. i think you're reading way too much into when he posted it. sometimes a fish sandwich is just a fish sandwich. Also, Catholics didn't invent fish?? like, even in your initial comment you state that he probably didn't know Lent was a thing; and yeah, other religions exist. i get that you just want to be mad for no good reason, but please just sit down and take a breath. and it's not classist to teach people how to make fish sandwiches better than mcdonald's.
Even the smallest road side food stalls make such good Dosas.. it will be very difficult for most foreigner chef to even make the dosa batter without proper training... by just following a recipe.
@@lovedelena98 people don't go vegetarian/pescatarian for only ethical purposes only you know. Personally, I just didn't like the taste or concept of meat anymore, and eating fish provided more flexibility and some additional nutrition compared to a vegetarian diet. I want to reduce my carbon footprint yet I love fish. People need to get this "all or nothing" mindset out of their heads because going pescatarian or simply eating less meat, in general, is better than nothing environmentally.
Idea- Joshua's girlfriend makes something by just following his videos on youtube without any help or cheating. From finding the ingredients to tasting it.
I was just watching a tiktok live of McDonald’s employees making this💀 that half slice killed me, even the employees thought they should be full slices. This is the exact reason why I will not get seafood from any fast food chain
It’s called filet o fish because in French “au” means “of” and the sandwich is a filet of fish so macdonalds made it filet o fish based off of filet au poison
@@abdullahrashid7385 okay so if you're telling me it's exclusive to filet o fish you're telling me it's not in common usage lmao why be defensive? It's just straight up not French, that's all I was trying to prove
for anyone making this: since cod as a commodity is way less economical due to scarcity, you can use pollock, which is a close relative and works just as well. also you can just use any white fish as said in the video.
Dillon Dean I live in the UK, and the filet here is really nice and I’ve had one in France which was also delicious. The American one looked god awful tho.
im pescatarian so this is my usual order and its pretty nice in the uk, its actually just like a kinda cheap fish finger sandwich, but i have heard mcdonalds in the uk is over all higher quality because of tighter restrictions

It was fun knowing you
As someone who has eaten the fish fillet religously, i have noticed the steady decline in cheese, and it still confuses me that a company as big as McDonalds still refuses to give me a whole slice of cheese in my fish sandwich.
It's always been a 1\2 slice of cheese. It's never been changed.
@@robertscott6464 we got full slice in russia. i can't believe filet-o-fish such bad in US. it's my favourite burger. i even take only double version of it.
@@NEUNELFER911 me too I've been to china and there is the double version of it, and it's way better
BUT WHY CHEESE THO
BUT WHY
Apparently it's for balance of flavours.
I'm an employee at mcdonalds and the buns is not toasted, but its steamed for 12-15 seconds. It really looks nice!
Either all of the cameramen Josh hires are really short orrrr Josh is just gigantic.
josh is like 6 ft
@@ex0ticx0x classic 6 ft versus 5'11
Josh is an absolute unit
i think josh is just really tall cus in his video w babish the height difference was crazy
he's a whole yard long
I do highly enjoy the Filet-O-Fish Sandwich, but yours looks incredible. I had been thinking about creating my own, so I am super happy you made this video!! yay!!
No one in Boston was eating a Burger on Friday so the fish sandwich was invented. I knew if it was done right it would be good. You did a great job my friend. I would press down the roll before the raise to make it more of a bun.
Introduction of your hire Jojo the day Stone Ocean gets announced is just...perfection.

Just like Kars said "i've been waiting for 4- No 5000 years for this"
Yes
When I say you combine 2 of my favorite things.....Food and Comedy ...pure goofball chef I freakin love it
former maccies employee here: chances are what you got has been sitting in a holding tray for over 3 hours, and the half slice of cheese is actually the 'proper way' to make it ):
Look. If they say a slice of cheese, they best give a slice of cheese, not a half a slice
@@arshad887 yeah I don't want a slice of a slice. I mean we could get into the semantics of it, because half a slice is technically a slice, but nobody does half slices anyway its weird
I worked there too, sounds like you're just a shitty and lazy employee if you used food laying around for 3 hours.
That's worst case scenario lol what the fuck. It's supposed to be made when ordered 😐
HALF A SLICE OF CHEESE WHAT THE FUDGE BRO?
I love how Joshua never fails his sandwich buns
They're always the same shiney texture
*buttery* texture
1. It's the kind of thing that once you know what you're doing, it's pretty easy to get it right consistently
2. It's a shiny APPEARANCE. As for the texture we're just taking his word that they're legit. For all we know they might feel more like a wad of ash
Joshua made the frying oil look like the oceans water so the fishes feel like home. What a man of honor
There is one burger from McDonalds I actually really like. (But I think its a special mainly for Germany)
However most of the Burger they make, have little to no sauce. So I have a really good chance to die of dehydration when eating a burger.

Please do a "But Better" episode of Panera Bread's menu. I don't want to tell you what to get but they have soups, salads, sandwiches, bowls(with or without chicken), flatbreads, bread loafs that you can buy, pastries, cookies, and other desserts. Very good food!
I vote for their broccoli cheese soup. Panera's is good but I'm sure homemade is better
@@joshc5613 it is indeed very good
I think the Mac and cheese or 🥦 🧀 🥣
That would be fun to watch
this would be great
Joshua seems like the kind of sub teacher to start rapping to be _cool_ but the children tolerate the cringe because he dishes out free chocolates that eliminate the weak allergic students.
Bro, that's too specific...
Suspiciously specific
ELIMINATE THE WEAK.
Ummm... "Weak allergic students", yeah I definitely want to have a word with your rudeness.
I love the fillet o fish. Which means i should absolutely love your version. Going to try it out this next weekend👍🏼👍🏼
"that's not going to stop us from making the best version that's ever existed." THAT'S MY PHILOSOPHY ON COOKING RIGHT THERE IN ONE SENTENCE!
I'm honeslty so happy to see someone who loves sauce as much as me put a lot of sauce on, and then after taking a bite... adding more sauce for the next bite. I feel seen
When my 2 year old son won't sleep we lay in bed watching josh. This is my way of ensuring I don't have to cook anymore in 10-15 years
smart
I actually like the Filet-O-Fish. At least in comparison to McDonald's other products.
That's kinda surprising cuz they are almost never fresh lmao
@@niccolabryer may or may not depend on the location tbh
I laughed this whole episode. “They 3D printed the cheese on here.” 😂😩🤣
Also the beat in the intro is pretty dope 👍🏾
Papa bullying my favourite fast food sandwich is literally the biggest slap in the face. 🥺
I unironically love fillet-o-fish and I love the crumbed fish they use! And the plastic cheese (though the half cheese on his order was absolutely doggin, McDonald’s really don’t care abt their filet-o-fishs 😂) and I love the McDonald’s buns 🥺 the taste and smell is really nostalgic for me for some reason.
Fast food place: creates dish
Joshua: *what a disgrace*
Pretty accurate
except maybe the mcdonalds hash browns
@@xiaohongzhang1390 yeah those are good
I love him, but sometimes he's a bit of a diva.
Not to mention I've never had McDonald's bags that stink as much as he gets. Maybe it's the McDonald's??
In the Netherlands we have kibbeling which is an unhealthy piece of fried fish and it is delicious
Oh man. You're taking on Fish Filet? That's my freaking childhood right there lol.
The dyslexic and "what country is that"-cheese joke really made me laugh lol
I recently stumbled across PAPA, and I have to say, I have watched most of your very entertaining videos, and they've helped me reaffirm my love for the culinary arts as well as make me smile. Thank you Papa
I do like the content of the videos but personally i think PAPA is a fucking tool.
The reason this was made was because a McDonald’s was near a really catholic (not sure I think it was catholic) town and for a day they would fast but for some reason fish was allowed that McDonald’s sales would drastically drop during that day and they needed a idea so they made the filet o fish and their sales were back to normal again
Edit:I said this just in case people are confused why McDonald’s still has this despite removing flops before like the mc rib
The filet o fish isn't nearly as bad as they make it out to be.
Dawg all fast food isn’t good
Edit: forgot the word almost lol
I used to eat them all the time when I was younger, I almost feel like they were better then. And when they put a whole piece of cheese lol
I still eat them all the time, they're great tbh, and less than 400 calories and a solid amount of protein

So I made these and they were pretty excellent. I did just the fish, not the buns, but I have made the buns in the past so I can attest to their greatness. I simply wanted to make some fried fish. I did deviat slightly. I used Season Salt instead of Old Bay as I didn't have Old Bay and my wife isn't a fan.
For procedure my only change was to double batter my fish. I didn't do this for any flavor reasons, I just had some fish that was already showing some signs of wanting to fall apart when I was battering it so I hit it with a second coat to make sure it stayed togehtwhile frying. It did result in a crispier crust since double battered of course, but honestly it didn't impact fry time at all (4 minutes per batch) and it gave a bit more of the flavor since more batter/crispier.
10/10 would recommend. Would say for sure the Old Bay would have been excellent as well if I had some. Do think the double batter was a good idea as well. He doesn't mention it, but based on his outcome I'd be surprised if Josh didn't double batter his.

I can’t believe you waited until Lent was over for this
It's kinda telling with the "this sandwich should never have existed" part of the description that he probably didn't even know that Lent was a thing. Not surprising considering A) How Horrifically Baptist the South is and B) How Horrifyingly Anti-Catholic Southern Baptists are.
@@ProjectBlackweather Wtf are you talking about? He just made a Fish Sandwish, an excellent one at that. His surname is Jewish by the way, so if anything, he shouldn't be expected to know what lent is lol. What the actual f*** are you on about?
@@qweqwe1324 From the description verbatim "A sandwich that should have never existed? The decision is up to you" He classistly made a fish sandwich whilst belittling the OG and people who it eat it. "Who wants this111?!?1?" Catholics during Lent. If Josh's head wasn't so far up his own ass he'd have learned that he can make these meals "better" without being a classist wank about it., but he's not gotten the message since this isn't the first time he's been classist.
@@ProjectBlackweather proper wanker you are mate.
@@ProjectBlackweather when he said it shouldn't exist, he was hating on the mcdonald's sandwich. he literally says at the end that more fish sandwiches, tacos, etc should exist. i think you're reading way too much into when he posted it. sometimes a fish sandwich is just a fish sandwich. Also, Catholics didn't invent fish?? like, even in your initial comment you state that he probably didn't know Lent was a thing; and yeah, other religions exist. i get that you just want to be mad for no good reason, but please just sit down and take a breath. and it's not classist to teach people how to make fish sandwiches better than mcdonald's.
I WANT TO SEE JOSHUA MAKE DOSA
I will keep commenting this on all videos till he makes it.
Yes please
Even the smallest road side food stalls make such good Dosas..
it will be very difficult for most foreigner chef to even make the dosa batter without proper training... by just following a recipe.
I made this for lunch
It was an absolute success 🤩🤩
Thank you so much for this delicious recipe 💛
i love how every episode there’s a new version of “macdanalds”
When you're pescetarian and this is the only burger you can get at mcd
frr
There’s a simple solution. Eat other meats
What's the point of eating no meat but fish? Fish are also animals and commercial fishing is a huge problem for our environment.
@@lovedelena98 how about you mind your own business
@@lovedelena98 people don't go vegetarian/pescatarian for only ethical purposes only you know. Personally, I just didn't like the taste or concept of meat anymore, and eating fish provided more flexibility and some additional nutrition compared to a vegetarian diet. I want to reduce my carbon footprint yet I love fish. People need to get this "all or nothing" mindset out of their heads because going pescatarian or simply eating less meat, in general, is better than nothing environmentally.
Did Joshua just Gura "a" out of existence XD
omg i though im the only one who will think about it.
And he made a FISH Sandwich and making a "A" outtro? nahhh thats no coincidence!!!!
His videos feel like the VSauce of food
Idea- Joshua's girlfriend makes something by just following his videos on youtube without any help or cheating. From finding the ingredients to tasting it.
That "A" near the end fricken SENT ME! Proud to be a Gura SHRIMP in these times

It’s called filet o fish because in French “au” means “of” and the sandwich is a filet of fish so macdonalds made it filet o fish based off of filet au poison
Or maybe cos ‘o’ is a used abbreviation in English? No need to be all upmarket and french smh
No it's called fillet o' fish because that's an American colloquialism for fillet _of_ fish
@@devong1838 o is an abbreviation used in the UK but exclusive to 'filet o fish' so stfu.
@@abdullahrashid7385 okay so if you're telling me it's exclusive to filet o fish you're telling me it's not in common usage lmao why be defensive? It's just straight up not French, that's all I was trying to prove
@@abdullahrashid7385 the abbreviation comes from the French word you idiot
for anyone making this:
since cod as a commodity is way less economical due to scarcity, you can use pollock, which is a close relative and works just as well. also you can just use any white fish as said in the video.
As a Muslim who only eats Halal food, Fillet-o-Fish is the best
