Brian Lagerstrom is a cheesehead -- meaning he really, *really* loves fine cheeses. He doesn't wear one of those cheese hats. At least, I think he doesn't.
Mythical Chef Josh, and JW are amongst my favorite TH-camrs to watch period, even if I don't care about what they're cooking. MC Josh's other content like the podcast and his interview series "Last Meals" are must watches for anyone. I'd argue he'll be at Sean from Hot Ones level of interviewing in a year or two at this rate.
@@StonedCabbage MSG is amazing. And I wouldn't call him pretentious; he's just a more serious chef than someone like MCJ. I suggest listening to the episode of Mythical Kitchen podcast 'A Hotdog is a Sandwich' with JW. Might change your mind.
@@Cessate lol I mean he definitely is a little pretentious, especially when rating other foods and when it comes to his "but better" series. Saw a good video that explained how his brisket technique was filled with inaccuracies. I mean sure MSG is good but I've gone my whole life making great recipes without using it or needing it and it just seems like every dish he makes he can't go without it
@@StonedCabbagehe doesn't put msg in everything. He literally has a video on whether everything should have msg or not and he disagreed, they shouldn't.
Brian is the absolute goat of TH-cam cooks. He never misses with his recipes, he's charismatic and funny without coming off as annoying or taking away from the recipe. Plus he doesnt mess with any bougie BS that Josh W tends to lean into. Brian all the way 💪
Ive said this before and I will scream it to the roof tops! Your videos and content are criminally unknown and under viewed! You are so damned good bro. I like and share as often as I can. You should have 1mil + views on your videos by now. Keep fighting the good fight my man. Love this channel!
I appreciate how JW's recipes are never too crazy but he always has a secret weapon that he utilizes to make sure his recipe stands out. Like he'll incorporate a unique sauce or ingredient to make the food go to the next level. And I appreciate that in a world full of food that doesn't often stand out from the rest in its class.
I love Brian and Josh (Weisman). My 2 favorite cooking channels. I will now add this guy to the rotation. Great video. Love how you have your own style, and the references to the other guys is hilarious 😂
I appreciate your descriptions of what and why you liked each. I feel confident in which I would choose, because you gave enough for me to make that decision. I'd go with J W, but also think it a bit too sweet, so I'd use less of that sauce. I can't stand the flavor of mold, and generally don't like spicy hot as a primary flavor. If I was to make that one, I'd double down on the cream sauce to mellow the overall spicy and pair it with a drink that does similar. (perhaps a mint milkshake or an iced thai tea?)
I love potato buns I think they suit interesting burgers that have a lot going on. Brioche is nice with a simple chicken and lettuce or beef patty with slice of cheese and salad filling or even dessert. Potato buns just carry flavour so well!
Josh with his Shiro Dashi. Puts it in everything and says it so easy to find. Can’t find that literally anywhere. Not even in Asian specialty markets and I live in Pittsburgh, not some tiny town. It annoys me everytime he’s like “oh you NEED this and it is essential to the dish!” Guess I’m not gonna ever make his recipes
just buy it online. *I learned 1st-hand how important certain ingredients are to making an amazing dish vs just ok:* ^ oyster or fish sauce in stir fry - sounds disgusting vs flavors I like, but is actually what makes that must-get-another-bite-in-my-mouth experience. ^ black vinegar & shou shing wine - if you want your chow mien (and other dishes) to have that taste that is just missing from home versions. ^ a lot of beef dishes really need some kind of earthy flavor (I tend to go earthy green) and also need some kind of sour (I tend to go for sour cream into the mix to cook and caramelize a bit)
Solid, Adam...and your conglomeration at the end was SPOT ON perfection! I might give it a go, tho I might add a little potato starch and baking powder in the breading...I'm not a big fan of sweet sauce either, especially dunking the whole fried chicken thigh in it. I don't even like wings tossed in sauce. I gotta try that cole slaw!
Almost underselling how good that blue cheese dressing recipe is. I'm normally 100% team ranch but after making that blue cheese recipe from Brian I will take that over ranch every time.
Mystical Kitchen doesn't necessarily make "good" food. They make very entertaining food. But they really need to know what they're talking about/doing in order to make whacky foods that are edible. You'll never see their foods in restaurants, but it's so fun to see the weird things they come up with
Like in the last meals series, most of the food is made by them unless it's requested to get it from a specific place. And even then, when they can't get it from that place, they learn and make it themselves.
Worked at appleznbeeez in the early 90s. Not sure if/when it changed, but their original buffalo sauce for wings was just regular Tabasco and mayo...put them + the cooked wings in a container and shake the whole thing up.
Glad you mentioned the Mississippi Delta. I’m from Greenville… THEE BEST!! But some of these ingredients aren’t in any of ours stores. We have a lot, but we’re still behind in a lot of things.
Hey bro, love the video , just a small request if you would be so kind to post a link for where to buy the cutting board you have i would really appreciate it :)
I just saw your video on the beef with the gardenelichi. Or whatever. With that cooking guy, who is a germa phobe. I was all ready subbed, bur now your getting recommended. That is nice, good content.
This one was great!!!!! I am a sucker for a solid fried chicken sandwich. I think I would have voted the same way. If you told me Josh W sandwich was hot and sweet, I may feel a bit different. Classic is king for this type of sandwich. Nice work!
Subscribed because good video. And also because I think brioche buns are fine, but I don't get the hype around them to the point of excluding other buns. I was just thinking about how potato buns are better the other day.
I knew Brian's recipe would win this. JW's recipes are memes for a reason. Many of his recipes are either too advanced or too time consuming, and MJ's recipe just flat-out never stood a chance.
Hi. Rec here La (the state). I’ve seen you go for Tony chachere’s for Cajun seasoning. I’d recommend slap ya mama instead (especially the spicier/hotter version). Although idk how easily accessible it is outside La. This is imo, u may like Tony’s more. But yeh. Just throwing it out there for you to try sometime
Josh #2 had a wild recipe, actually doesn't look bad though! I mean, visually... kind of, but the idea of making a blueberry sauce is neat. 4:45 NO ADAM DONT JUGGLE THE MASON JAR AAAHHHH In typical shootout fashion, I gotta wonder how those sandwiches were temp/sogginess-wise at taste time. You're really fast and precise at putting things together (sans lemon cheek rip) but it seems tricky to order this all! Unless the only thing you really need to time is the fried chicken... Brian is definitely my favorite of these 3 as I like a good buffalo sauce. But I do have a soft spot for the approach Josh's goes for with slaw and Korean Fried Chicken flavors. BUT, I think I like your chicken the best. I personally love when you let the chicken stand out more not completely coasted in sauce, just dress the bun. I personally like making a simple chicken katsu (with thighs) and throwing that on a toasty bun with a spicy/garlicky mayo. I AM SIMPLE OK?? You made yours by combining the others, but if you go from scratch, what kind of chicken sandwich do you like to make?
Why add vinegar to the buffalo sauce? The Frank's hot sauce and Worcestershire are both mostly vinegar already. That little dribble isn't going to make a dent in the flavor or texture.
I enjoyed the video, but Mythical Chef Josh was kinda set up to fail. Yeah, they do a lot of novelty stuff on MK, but Josh has made a handful of more "traditional" chicken sandwiches on the channel that could've actually competed with the others. That Taki thing was obviously never designed to be a culinary delight. Looks cool, though. Super fun concept for a video.
I don't have a thing against using takis to bread chicken as I've used hot cheetos before but i personally wouldn't use the blue ones as they have a weird after taste to me, i like the buffalo sandwich though without any blue cheese though not a fan
My brother lived there for a couple years and I visited. However, that’s just me butchering the English language and acting a fool. Japan is a beautiful country. Would LOVE to go back.
Mythical Josh is one of my favorite creators of all time
Dude is a beast for sure.
Everything MC Josh does seems like a troll and I love him for it! The dudes culinary knowledge is just ridiculous.
Yeah he has fun with it
Brian Lagerstrom is a cheesehead -- meaning he really, *really* loves fine cheeses. He doesn't wear one of those cheese hats. At least, I think he doesn't.
Lagerstrom is definitely a Bears fan though.
and is def from Illinois, right?
As a Illinoisian Strom, can confirm, he's one of us.
@@AdamWitt We need Lagerstrom to confirm his football allegiance.
@@AdamWitt He's from st. Louis
Brian is bad ass and honestly one of the reasons I turned to TH-cam for recipes and training.

Loving this new series dude. I’ve wanted to see recipes with all the best parts of each specific dish on TH-cam. This is fire.
thanks mane
it was so hands down easy for me just watching, Lagerstrom all the way
Josh is the best. His style is so uniquely chaotic yet so easy to follow along to.
That's why he got second, cuz he's the best ;)
@@MisoMisoFightingInTheDojo he got third.
@@__Black_Sheep__ was talking about Weissman. I frickin love Mythical Chef Josh.
Was getting Planet of the Apes vibes from that Blue Taki Chicken Sandwich. "You maniacs! You blue it up! Damn you! Damn to all to heck!"
I love potato buns I think they suit interesting burgers that have a lot going on. Brioche is nice with a simple chicken and lettuce or beef patty with slice of cheese and salad filling or even dessert.

I definitely have to try mixing buttermilk into the flour next time I fry chicken, wicked sick video man!

ty dude. Yeah im sensy to sweet things too.
Your editing and skills won me over you got a new sub
Of *course* the blue sandwich is Josh from Mythical 😂
The Bry guy is literally one of my favorite chefs
Almost underselling how good that blue cheese dressing recipe is. I'm normally 100% team ranch but after making that blue cheese recipe from Brian I will take that over ranch every time.

Nah. If you don't think that food is good. You haven't seen them just cooking
Like in the last meals series, most of the food is made by them unless it's requested to get it from a specific place. And even then, when they can't get it from that place, they learn and make it themselves.
Mythical Chef Josh is my king.

Hey bro, love the video , just a small request if you would be so kind to post a link for where to buy the cutting board you have i would really appreciate it :)
I’d be open to trying the blue chicken sandwich, except I’d request homemade buns colored blue.
First video I’ve seen from you, instant subscribe! This was awesome 👏🏼 Love all of those chefs too.
I think I prefer potato buns over brioche most of the time.
This was such a good video! I’m also team blue cheese over ranch! & I prefer salty over sweet. Twinning! lol
Bro had the optimal opportunity to say ”wise thinking weissmen” 😭😂
Personally I like the one where they fry some chicken and then put it between some bread
I would love to see you do a colab with Brian.
I just saw your video on the beef with the gardenelichi. Or whatever. With that cooking guy, who is a germa phobe.
I was all ready subbed, bur now your getting recommended. That is nice, good content.
If anyone wanted to know what the color blue taste like, try the blue Takis. They’re the best!!!
Would have liked to have seen the Bone Marrow Fried Chicken sandwich from Guga! I bet it smashes all these
That’s the most diabolical chicken sandwich ever spawned!
I've made Weissman's Korean chicken sando many times...love it! That traditional looks good to tho, fo sho.
This was awesome man. 2 of those sandwiches looked absolutely phenomenal. even though RANCH >>> BC. worth the sub
shwelcome my mans.
Why didnt you name the "nasty patty" the "eiffle 65" 😂
lol
That Bleu cheese dressing was looking mighty fine.
THEN THE CHUNK NATION ATTACKED
Thought Brian would take the win.
What..? He did?
This one was great!!!!! I am a sucker for a solid fried chicken sandwich. I think I would have voted the same way. If you told me Josh W sandwich was hot and sweet, I may feel a bit different. Classic is king for this type of sandwich. Nice work!
thanks homie
@@AdamWitt thank you for showing us. I think I definitely be interested in tasting that blue one, but I'm not making that many dishes just to try. 🤷
