  • Binging with Babish and Alvin Cailan receive a master class in classic regional burger styles from Burger Scholar, George Motz. The last time Binging With Babish appeared on The Burger Show, he and Alvin combined the best of Shake Shack and In-N-Out into a never-before-seen hybrid burger. Today, Motz teaches them how to make the Jucy Lucy, the Cuban Frita, and the Lacey-Edge.

    burger joint idea: the seating is like a sushi bar but having a long flat top for cooking burgers, your chef (graduated from George Motz burger academy) offers you a wide range of regional burger selections where they would cook it in front of you while going through the history and the trivia related to that burger, just like what he's doing here.

    TOO MANY places that sell juicy lucy's (even here) make a thick ball that explodes, causing all the cheese to leak out off of the burger.

Like the jucy lucy, it is two thin patties with cheese in between, but unlike the jucy lucy, it is then dipped in batter and deep fried. The bun is optional, but I like it on a traditional Scottish morning roll. I hate how much I like it.

    Matt’s Bar is a small place. You can’t fit too many people in there. If you go at the wrong time, you will wait in line. The menu is simple, but for good reason. They NAIL the Jucy Lucy (proper spelling...sorry 5-8 Club 🤷🏼‍♀️).
    If you sit at end of the bar, you can actually watch your food being cooked. Having worked at a burger joint myself, I was in awe of the grill cook. He had an entire flattop full of patties and onions and everything else going on, and while he was sweating because of the heat, he made everything LOOK graceful and easy. You leave smelling a little like onion and burger grease, but it’s so worth it. The food and the experience add up to a great time.
    Their main competition is the 5-8 Club, who stuff the burger with so much cheese that it’s almost overwhelming. But sometimes less is more. I live in neighboring WI, and I head to Matt’s Bar every time I’m in Minneapolis!

    Part of what made Matt's Juicy Lucy taste amazing to me was standing in a line out in the cold, finally getting inside only to be accosted by the smell and heat of the grill for another 15-20 minutes before you get to order. So after 30 minutes of smelling this thing it's like the burger gods answering your prayers. Maybe it was just really busy that day, but it made the burger better. Matt's for the pub burger, 5/8 club for a diner version and Blue Door Pub for the best dressed Lucy's in town.

    Juicy Lucy is pretty popular in the UK. They do one at the local butcher with blue cheese.

    I never thought I needed this until now. This is having me crave burgers at 8 am and that’s perfectly okay with me

      Dude 5/9 club is where it's at! Admittedly I've only been there but they have cool atmosphere and the burger is top notch!

      @@katoweltmer7476 Honest mistake, but Jed speaks the truth. 5-8 and Matt's have a long-running "feud" about who truly has the original Juicy Lucy, but I think once you can make it to Matt's, you'll know for yourself who truly started it.
