We Finally Know What Makes Five Guys' Fries So Delicious

- Unlike some fast food restaurants, Five Guys keeps their menu pretty simple. However, this allows them to focus on their burgers and fries, which many rank among the best out there. Their fries are always fresh, which is one reason they always taste so good, but there’s a whole lot more to it than just sending fresh bags of potatoes to the restaurants. They only work with one certain kind of potato, and their cooking process is a little more complex than you might expect. Let’s take a look at what really makes the fries at Five Guys so delicious.

Five Guys fries are the best I've ever had by far in my 75+ years, and I grew up on a potato farm.
Goes to show there's no accounting for taste.
@@Prad2007 lol there fries suck ass
@@freezyslash6218 You must have no tastebuds
I absolutely love the reckless amount of fries they(re supposed to) include in the bag.
They give me tons where I go. I put the large in my cup holder and snack on the drive home, Then I still have another large cup worth of fries in the bottom of the bag.
I use to be a short order fry cook at a little drive in up in Madera CA. I had to prep and cook the french fries. I put them through the veggie chopper, put them in a peeler too. Pre fried them and then stored them in a walk in refrigerator. Then fried them the rest of the way. Not difficult, just a lengthy procedure!
I absolutely love Five Guys fries!!
Yeah me Too!! Did you try cajun? They're delicious
Fresh cut is so much better than pre packaged frozen potatoes and five guys demonstrates that so well
I love the old school preparation, like you'll get from the amusement park or fair
I'll say the extra fries are built into the price. This has to be the most expensive burger and fries joint around.
Old McDonald's Fries were the best ever.
The operative word being "were".
Yeah were for sure...just like BK fries used to be decent...
Before MD changed from lard to whatever they use now. Mickee d's fries are now SHIT!
@@yukonstriker1703 They didn't use lard they used beef tallow.
Ya they were til they wanted to be "healthy" more like cheap
Five Guys Cajun Fries are one of the best things of all time.
Yes
I was in the Fry business for 25 years......5 Guys fries are ok, but.....not consistent especially for folks that know how to do them properly......peanut oil must be continuously rotated and fryers cleaned daily.....5 Guys problem, fries are not their specialty, burgers are so thats their focus, in addition 5 Guys are also at the mercy of the market, with the new crop, the old crop and the fact that all potatoes due to their starch and sugar content cook differently, therefore you must adjust for consistency......
Cope
These damn fries are so good The video gave me chills! Looking forward to making some at home.
I love how when I get a small fries, and they literally just dump 2 extra massive scoops in to the bag bigger than the original cup of fries
Five Guys fries are also made with Potatoes from Prince Edward Island in their Canadian locations.
They serve very good burgers & fries because they use very good products I don’t mind paying extra for a good meal one of my favorite burger restaurant
Fresh cut are the best that’s why I love 5 guys and Penn station it’s just the love and time they put in its a huge difference
Great.. Thx for sharing
Added to bucket list!
I love Australian and British fries! yum
They keep the skin on, that's the key.
I love Five Guys fries!
Dutch fries with mayo are the best :)
I always ask them to double fry mine so they are a bit more crispy.
So after they cut the potatoes to fries , they boil them in hot water for 3 minutes, fry them, then boil them again? Then fry them a second time before serving them? Wow.
The first time I had FIVE GUYS fries, it was a very new experience for me. Before then, I did not know what Boardwalk style fries were, as there are no other places that I am aware of in Texas that offer this style of french fries. That mashed potato like inside, and yet a firm outside, makes Boardwalk style French fries. I have come to like Boardwalk style fries better than traditional crispy fries. Try putting a splash of malt vinegar sauce into a 2 ounce side cup at the condiments bar, then fill it halfway full with ketchup. Use a fry to stir it up to well incorporate the malt vinegar. Makes a great ketchup enhancer, and a great fry dip!
I prefer Penn Station fries. They have more crispie crunchies. They are the small bits of the potato that aren't the full sticks, especially bits of skin.
five guys fries are so good
I'm assuming they use a vinegar water for their boil. Otherwise without the acid present the pectin structure in the potatoes breaks down in the boiling and they fall apart like boiled potatoes.
I don't think do. I believe they either pre fry or blanch them, but also they presoak them which Russ the fries 🍟of the starch which ruins the perfect fry process. I do a semi -similar home fry and never add vinegar but need to try peanut oil, b because olive oil has a minimal after taste, canola oil less but leaves more particles for the following batches. Enjoy, love fresh FF!

They exist.
0:40 hit em with the hein!
This fast food chain does quality before quantity
I like how they put their fries in a cup and burger or hotdogs in a kitchen foil paper it... there's something so simple about it, other brands put a logo in their food packaging, but they just stick to using things that are simple that have no logo on them.....how ever their milkshakes do have a logo, but overall their food packaging is simple.
I’m currently eating fives guys as I’m watching this 🤤
All frys are made with whole 🥔 maybe you ment cut fresh
I think they meant unpeeled.
2 ingredients Potato & Seasoning. Perfect for me. Not tripping of the calorie count, since I'm not eating a chemical laced frie.
Also they leave the skin on their potatoes this also I believes in the crispness and crunchiness in their fries.
It depends on the quality it varies but lately it was perfect
What free peanuts? My neighborhood Five Guys has never offered anyone free peanuts. Ever.
They're out in the open for anyone to take.
Bro went through an awakening twice when eating Five Guys' fries and peanuts
I don't go to a QSR to eat healthy. If I want healthy food, I eat at home.
If you're a diet freek don't go there.
your fries are the best hands down!
I noticed that the potatoes are not washed properly. When the guy puts the potato into the cutter you can still see dirt on the outside which certainly isn't hygienic.
Shut up dude
I love their fries, I didnt get any bag fries today booo
I have to drive 4.5 hours to get to five guys... fml
😹😹😹😹😹
Jeffrey Dahmer had 5 guys before it was a restaurant
Five Guys is the best burger & fries joint in the country!
You called perfect Pre cooked it’s perfect LSD lean dull soft !!
5 guys the most expensive fast food burger joint I’ll pass
In n out has fresh cut fries too.
nah your wrong five guys got better fries then in of out
nah your wrong five guys got better fries then in of out
in n out fries are trash they too small and hard
It is that peanut oil!
"The secret is they are made of whole potatoes"; I'm pretty sure that are French fries are made from whole potatoes.
Fries not greasy? I think every bag I've gotten there was thoroughly soaked
The out side of the fries are greasy but not the inside

@BMWROYAL
Hey nice video and all but remember covid? They unfortunately don't so free peanuts anymore
Real fries! I hate to say this, but the peanuts taste stale.
They’re ‘free’.
Best fries ever.
Just because something has more calories doesn't make it unhealthy. There are more important markers of unhealthiness.
ive never preferred crisp fries, just almost everyone makes them that way cept 5 guys
Finally
I love Five Guys.
I myself have never had these fries without their being oily and limp. Tasted good, but. Once I asked for them well-done, but they were still limp and oily.
A lot of that has to do with the market.....if Idaho’s aren’t available the purveyor sends a substitute with a competitive price, since all potatoes cook differently due to starch and sugar content, frying adjustments must be made, if not you get what you are describing.....
*Without even pressing play*It's not how they fry them...
Went to five guys for the first time and to be honest they're extremely salty
The burgers are greasy, overpriced, and subpar. However the french fries are worth their weight in gold.
@Larry S sounds awesome to me
If you're a diet freek don't go there.
I don't mind paying for the extra fries.
They don't don't do fries like this anymore after COVID
Their fries are fine if you get them well done with Cajun. Not the best but good enough
Ok
These frying technique is amazing! By the way, if you ever experience a burn, Honey Lavender Magic is a wonderful home remedy. It's been my secret weapon!
👍
But a smll order easily will feed 2 people. So cut that calorie count in half.
The best fries, are French Fries. Capeesh!
That’s not the only thing that makes them so good, I know the secret but I can’t say cuz I’ll get sued
Almost sounds like you could use potatoes from Maine.
Not sure why so many "eh they're ok" posts, Five Guys fries are made fresh every day, not frozen like everywhere else, and have a lot of flavor that's all their own. Then again, maybe it's just that the public is conditioned to prefer homogenized mass-produced junk like the way waxy Hershey chocolate remains popular when it has butyric acid, the same substance found in vomit that gives vomit its "flavor"....Burger King parent company took a beloved Canadian institution like Tim Hortons and rung it through dirt in the name of profit and greed, and the clueless board wonders why sales haven't been what they thought they would. Stick with fresh where you can, folks. Franchisees may not have warm and fuzzy feelings towards the Murrells, but it is still a private family-owned company that keeps up the quality like Chick-Fil-A, the #1 in fast-food sales per store that isn't even open all 7 days of the week.
Its because the locations are rarely consistent with their cooking process. An order of Five Guys fries that’s made according to standards can’t be beat. You’re not likely to get that, though. They have to shake the baskets about 30 times while frying and perform perfect pre and final cooks under pressure. That results in neglect and bad fries. don’t blame them, it’s just what it is
Agreed. These people are dopes. These are literally the best fries can get. Fresh and tasty
Bs my fries were def oilly still good though
I love their fries so much bc they are always squishy and it's soooo good
Seasoning.
1:17, Potatoes are NOT "roots". Potatoes are TUBERS.
Its the peanut oil. The end.
Peanut oil and Scottish potato make the fries
I'm going to do a video on why Pen Station fries are so much better than five guys. I was so disappointed when I went to 5 guys. I thought I was going to have another good french fry place. Nope. Theirs are not crunchy unless they burn them.
They're boardwalk style fries. You just don't like that style.
Fries give me hard boiled egg farts.
"Not that there's anything wrong with that."
Took the idea from thrashers in DE
😁
I’m Suprized that you weren’t sued.
Who can beat McDonald's French fries, I'm sorry neighbors!!!
@@RealBigBadJohn okay , but then it's just a matter of simple personal taste , if someone says they like chicken shit, that doesn't mean I'll like or eat even eat chicken shit , it was just a simple comment, I've eaten at five guys and I just don't care for their fries , when five guys are linked up all around the world and in Russia and nameless other countries, I'll change my opinion bro, I'm only addressing your comment to me, I don't mind if you don't like McDonald's, 75 years in business, I can appreciate it!!
Its good but too expensive.
Stopped video at 1:02. Yes, yes we all know what makes them so good, peanut oil, their fried in. Old news hombre, been knowing that for over a decade. You late to the party?
I guess I am late to the party because I don't recall ever going to a Five Guys restaurant. Now that I have seen this video, I will more than likely stop in, for the fries of course, lol.
Right on man!!!
I got slapped awake by a bag of fries.
It was a root awakening.
Shame about the burgers, though.
Customer: My Burger is undercooked! I'm probably gonna get salmonella!
Five Guys: Trust me, It's perfect- I timed it in my head.
So they pay extra and overcharge customers for potatoes from your local store.
Lets put our name on the bag to act as decor.
NOT IMPRESSED
2:51 I feel bad for this guy. That's a lot of repetitive motion to do for 8hrs a day.
5 guys is really delicious
My ball dandruff
That's some coincidence. I just walked out of a Five Guys.
Let me guess $19 for cheeseburger fries and a drink? 🥜🥱
@@lstruggy Minus the drink, it would be at least $17.
@@dwnkaomwn3953 if I’m gonna pay $20ish for a burger I’d go to Gordon Ramsey or Bobby Flays restaurants here in Vegas 😝
i dont like that they dont skin the potatoes. and theres that internet myth that you get craploads of extra fries, not at the 5g by me.
in n' out beats 5g on everything!
Might be too late
Your fries are greasy; and yes you should use a timer.
If you're a diet freek don't go there.
Honestly son if they don’t do em right Five Guys fries are some of the worst out there. A lot of times they don’t change the oil and they just taste like fried grease crisps .. 😱
Wrong !
Five guys makes so much money on their fries....
I’m not impressed by their fries
If you're a diet freek don't go there.
