I’ve been following this for 4 years, when my youngest daughter was born, I would watcher overnights while the wifey slept and I stumbled into the world of Guga. I’m proud of the hustle and how far this channel has come. You guys do great work.
Guga is so genuine and passionate about food. It's great to see. And you can tell he's a great guy because of the way people who collab with him talk about him. Nothing but nice things to say about him, and they're always so eager to go back and do another one.
I've been watching Guga since back in the day when he recorded videos in his kitchen. It's AWESOME to see that he now has products at Walmart! All the best Guga!
Hey everyone, I made them today. As one could see in the video there is almost no crust formation. The balls simply are too wet. That makes smashing them rather pointless. So, beware when making these. They are tasty, but I think they are better suited a little thicker for grilling, rather than smashed on a griddle, or they end up half boiled, half burned like mine did. Still eatable.
@@danielleza908It wasn't really a crust. It was the sugar in the marinade burning at a couple of spots. Like I said, it did taste well. You just have a very small margin of error between no crust and burned. If I had to do it again, I think I would make sauces out of these marinades, make a regular smashed patty and slather it on afterwards, or something similar to that. Maybe I'm too clumsy to get it right. That's always a possibility, I don't claim to know everything, or be perfect at recreating recipes. It was just a timely report of my personal experience and suggestions according to that.
I’ve watched countless burger videos on UA-cam over the last few years or so because I’m on a mission and this one is the most unique, innovative one I’ve ever seen! 🤯 Fantastic job, Guga 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥇
Amazing!!! I’m gonna get my Guga Griddle kit the next time at Walmart!!! You are such a hard worker and I absolutely love your food!!! Let’s get together soon!!!
Gigs, you and your nephews have awesome chemistry together. Each person balances each other out. You are a good pioneer. Always coming up with great concepts. Keep up the good work.
I realize it is extra work but I am extremely happy that you added the measurements to the ingredients used! Thank you so much for that little touch, because now I am determined to make the korean burgers (I will be getting your marinating container tomorrow when I go to walmart!)
Congratulations!! This is well deserved. I have been watching your videos from back in the day and you and your team/family should all go world wide. I’m going through a tough time right now but when I’m in dialysis for 4 hours three times a week your videos help me more than you will ever know. Thanks from Bob in Hollywood Fl.
2:55 Next time, adding some Roasted Shrimp Paste (Terasi) will add depth to the Sambal Flavor. And use Pestle & Mortar to truly get the Indonesian feel. Salam from Indonesia 🇮🇩
Guga, congratulations on your retail success but please don't let it go to your head. I lived next door to someone who got a tv show, then another and co produced a few more. She also had branded products in a chain store and sold her ghost written books. Success turned her into a monster. Don't let it happen to you. Stay real.
Guga has no sympathy for militant vegans and I love it!! Definitely going to look for some Guga kitchen gadgets at my local Walmart. They look legit. 💯
Guga my favorite channel , I love experimenting but also watching yours ! I am excited about this product line and have been putting off buying a vacuum marinate box for awhile glad I waited! Will buy the whole line! Much Love from your Northern border (South Carolina)
as an Indonesian, i didn't know at first you're just making our traditional "Sambal Goreng", but then i smile when you put "Indonesian Marinated Burgers". Thank you for bringing Indonesian Recipe in this video! *you may as well make the "Ayam Geprek", which is a crispy fried chicken smashed with that Sambal Goreng!
So I love mushrooms on my burgers. So after I did my first beef Wellington, I added Duxelles to my patties. Now I always do it. So here is my recipe for it. 1 Kg of ground beef (85/15 cause your burger will retain more fat) Duxelles 200 g of mushrooms 100 g of raw chestnuts 100 g of shallots 3 cloves of garlic Any herbs you want 1. Mix in a blender 2. Cook at low heat on a dry pan (do not add oil you want to maximize the amount of fat it will absorb while cooking the burger) 3. Once it’s completely dry mix it with the beef and make patties (due to the Duxelles you might want to make balls a little smaller if you still want a thin smash burger) 4. Cook and enjoy
Heading into this weekend, my family decided to have a HUGE 2 day BBQ family fiesta! I was in charge of the main course for Day 2's dinner. I asked my visiting younger brother what he would like as the main course, and he wanted Gourmet Hamburgers! So, I decided to make the Mexican Marinated burgers, along with Joshua Weissman's burger buns. Nothing against your burger bun recipe Guga, I just liked the idea of a collaboration between your burgers and Weissman's buns. It was a HUGE success! I recommend it to everyone, and I'm looking forward to trying the other two marinades sooner or later. 5 Stars!
Congratulations on the new products Guga all your videos are awesome and they’ve actually started me getting into grilling and cooking and everything and my girlfriend is blown away every time so thank you
Hey, thank you for these recipes and for experimenting in an artful yet tastful way. What an extremely professional presentation and well edited video. Visually listing the ingredients as you use them or describe the recipe is a huge win. A LOT of food focused and cooking channels fail in this respect. If the goal is to introduce a new recipe or cooking method, making it easy to follow and recreate is key for these type of videos. The only question I have is what sauce did you put on the top bun? The viscosity was too thin to be cheese, looked like Chipotle sauce that was dripping down during the shots of the burgers. Please advise. God bless.
Guga, it was great to watch this smash burger experiment. I gotta try the Korean - inspired burger! Here are some other ones to try - Bahn-mi burger with a ground pork smash burger - Vietnamese marinade with fish sauce - topped with pickled carrots, daikon, and jalapeños and a garlic aioli. Curry/garam masala marinated burger topped with onions, Indian pickles relish, a chutney-based burger sauce. A Thai green curry, bird pepper, garlic marinade with jalapeños and mildly sweet pickled cucumber, Thai basil, mint.
So what's this, the fourth or fifth "I made the greatest burger of my life" video that Guga made? He's gonna have to make a video where he puts all of his "ultimate burgers" against each other, to see which one is truly the best.
Hey Guga! What a great channel,bro! For your v4 best ever burger try this. Smash the patties on the parchment paper and not on the griddle. Then place the smashed pattie on the griddle. This way you will get the burger even more juicer. 😊
Guga, you're the reason I started doing smashburgers at home, and everyone I cook for loves them. Thank you for converting us, and I plan on buying some of your cookware next time I visit Walmart. Biggest question is: Where's my Guga Foods branded sous vide set?
Definitely going to try these recipes out. Love the marinade container, going to have to go to Walmart soon!! Keep the awesome videos coming and thank you for all the time and effort you put into these videos.
Guga, you always have awesome experiments. You are definitely a master of mixtures! I just received my “Guga start pack”. Received my SnS grill, Chef IQ thermometer and my Bbq Dragon charcoal chimney.
I'd love to see Guga take another stab at pub-style burgers. I've been making them with ground elk recently. Mix in 1 tsp honey and thyme per pound of meat, make a 1/2lb patty, medium heat cast iron skillet so the burger crisps just as the interior is finishing, and serve on a pretzel bun.
I loved this video, these were some of the most delicious looking burgers ever, and I need to have those burgers in my life!!! (this was not just "whole 'nother level" this is a series of wonderful Masterpieces!)
Whilst typing out what Guga has said at 0:23 I noticed that I have also used the slang version of 'Whole other level' which I always say as 'Whole nother level', but 'nother' is not a word. I am just noticing that is a combination of 'Whole other level' and 'another level' it seems that we have created 'nother word o'er 'ere!
Use some plastic wrap and the bottom of a saucer to flatten your burgers to the same thickness and width. You can do a bunch of them quick, and freeze what you didn't use, it's already got the plastic wrap,or even better wax paper, parchment paper.
Earlier in my life I never would have thought that someday I'll be watching a cooking channel... and now....Im watching you nearly from the beginnings and I cant get freakin' enough. 😂😂😂😂
I love the Korean representation here. I've lived in Korea for 5 years and my wife is Korean. The recipe ingredients are pretty good choices, but instead of the Bartlett pear, try using an Asian pear. That's what is used in Korean sauces. Korean pears are rather different. Great when you're dehydrated. They aren't as sweet as a Bartlett pear. As a cook, I understand using Bartlett but the Asian pear would be more authentic.
How about adding a lil bit of ground bacon, Pureed Roasted Garlic and Caramalized Onion, and Frozen Wagyu Fat (I say frozen so it doesn't melt away completely by the time the burger is done) into your burger mix? I imagine the flavor would be phenomenal without messing with the texture or cook time that much.
Guga idk if you’ll read this but I cooked a steak for the first time and I followed your videos and it was the best steak I’ve ever ate. Salt freshly ground black pepper and garlic powder
Got my griddle kit! It’s awesome y’all! Worth every penny. It’s exactly how a backyard griller wants. None of the frazzle dazzle crap that don’t work. Awesome product!
Don’t get me wrong, Smash Burgers are Great and these looked Amazing! But I prefer a 1/2” to 3/4” Burger with a crust cooked between rare to medium rare and well seasoned! I Absolutely Love your videos! God Bless!
My new products now available at every Walmart and online linktr.ee/shop.guga thank you for your ongoing support!
Feel free to treat your balls the way you like but please .. leave ours alone.
Do Dic-Anns cheeseburgers in the secret sauce.
Congrats best wishes on your launch!
Congrats on your product! It's just a shame you are going with a leftist company like Walmart
Congrats on the product line! I will have to go check them out.

When life is hard and I'm hating everything...Guga drops some fire and makes me smile. Protect this man at all costs!
Don't just watch, try the korean style and that will most definitely turn that frown upside down! It is 🔥!!!

Guga, you know who needs to review this…. George Motz.
Second
homie you right. homie knows his burgers. if anyone knows, its him
Motz doesn't mess around with loads of extra ingredients, he wouldn't approve of these.
Amazing!!! I’m gonna get my Guga Griddle kit the next time at Walmart!!! You are such a hard worker and I absolutely love your food!!! Let’s get together soon!!!
Ngl, didn't expect you here
Let’s DO IT!!!
I'm over here *heavy breathing* now, it's been a while since you lads made a video together
Gigs, you and your nephews have awesome chemistry together. Each person balances each other out. You are a good pioneer. Always coming up with great concepts. Keep up the good work.
I love your addition of the ingredients on the screen! It makes it easy to do your recipes

More work for the editor, not more work for Guga
I am an OG fan since the days you cooked in your office and ate on paper plates! Congratulations on all the success. You deserve it all! 🎉
Same. It is amazing what they've done with the channel. The passion was always there but the production value is top notch.
Congratulations!! This is well deserved. I have been watching your videos from back in the day and you and your team/family should all go world wide. I’m going through a tough time right now but when I’m in dialysis for 4 hours three times a week your videos help me more than you will ever know. Thanks from Bob in Hollywood Fl.
Guga's cooking videos just brings peace to the heart ❤️
2:55 Next time, adding some Roasted Shrimp Paste (Terasi) will add depth to the Sambal Flavor. And use Pestle & Mortar to truly get the Indonesian feel.
Salam from Indonesia 🇮🇩
It will be good, but for burgers terasi is a bit to overpowering. The smell of terasi can smell in your entire house
@Einz913 Well, I must agree on that one. But Terasi is definitely an Acquired Taste 😆
@@ferdinandgunawan8611 thats true. But not every sambal needs terasi. Will it make it better absolutely. As col-colan ofc not for burgers
Next time mind your own business
Shrimp Paste in a burger, thats is wild
Ada Indonesianya coooy❤
Always love your video Guga
Guga, congratulations on your retail success but please don't let it go to your head.

Don't let it happen to you. Stay real.
Well done Guga! As a long time subscriber, seeing you get the Merch deal, you deserve it. Such a hard worker and all round graat guy!
lol! Gugas writing an essay of bread without referencing his sources, Gugas bunz = Brioche
1:25 maybe you have been doing this for a while and i just didnt notice, but i love that you put a list of all the ingredients on screen now

From sous vide vidoes at work, to sponsoring yourself. Great job Guga, you're an inspiration! This video make you a virtuous genius!
I'am Indonesian and i'am so proud of you guga!! You elevated the flavor with sambal, you must come to Indonesia because it's so many kind of sambal
Been watching this channel for 3 years and it yet doesn’t fail to both entertain and excite me to cook
guga you made the best life changing insane burger of your life 15 times already
Always improving, if you dont life gets boring.

Guga, we need your kit available for international shipping on Amazon or something. You rock!
Watching Guga is a comfort food in itself!
I’ve been watching since before you had 10,000 followers. Glad to see you still going strong and now you have your own products!
Watching Guga while eating makes the food taste 10x better
So what's this, the fourth or fifth "I made the greatest burger of my life" video that Guga made? He's gonna have to make a video where he puts all of his "ultimate burgers" against each other, to see which one is truly the best.
Congrats Guga. Your new products look like they are high quality.
Had to pause, extremely high & this is giving me vibes from that South Park episode with the "Shake Weight"
Had to save this one to my cooking ideas playlist. I'm definitely gonna be making some of these and I'm definitely getting Gugas burger set.

Earlier in my life I never would have thought that someday I'll be watching a cooking channel... and now....Im watching you nearly from the beginnings and I cant get freakin' enough. 😂😂😂😂
I think every burger is a life changing burger for Guga
DUDE that burger press looks like a perfect compliment to my Blackstone griddle! I will most definitely be picking one of those up!
Muito massa os produtos Guga, parabéns por todo o sucesso que você alcançou!!
I'm on it, guga... I'll be picking up your new products on Saturday morning! I'll let you know how you did!
video idea: do a sauce from every country in the world with their native and most used ingredients (Aruba included):)
Guga definitely needs to make the pretty patties from Spongebob
I love the Korean representation here. I've lived in Korea for 5 years and my wife is Korean. The recipe ingredients are pretty good choices, but instead of the Bartlett pear, try using an Asian pear. That's what is used in Korean sauces.
Korean pears are rather different. Great when you're dehydrated. They aren't as sweet as a Bartlett pear. As a cook, I understand using Bartlett but the Asian pear would be more authentic.
The secret to the best EVER burger patty is mango chutney in the mince mix. experiment for flavor, but hands down AMAZING. Love from Australia.
Loving the on screen measurements
It's about time for Guga to coming up with his own kitchen set 😂🤣
How about adding a lil bit of ground bacon, Pureed Roasted Garlic and Caramalized Onion, and Frozen Wagyu Fat (I say frozen so it doesn't melt away completely by the time the burger is done) into your burger mix? I imagine the flavor would be phenomenal without messing with the texture or cook time that much.
Guga idk if you’ll read this but I cooked a steak for the first time and I followed your videos and it was the best steak I’ve ever ate. Salt freshly ground black pepper and garlic powder
You should call the green one “Hulk Smash Burgers”
actually respect for using your own gear now in vids

Go Guga!! Will check out your products! Really digging the marinade container!
Don’t get me wrong, Smash Burgers are Great and these looked Amazing! But I prefer a 1/2” to 3/4” Burger with a crust cooked between rare to medium rare and well seasoned! I Absolutely Love your videos! God Bless!
So good to see you guys successful!!! Well done. ❤❤❤🤗👊🏼
And those products are priced very well! I will be picking up some Guga Gear!
guga making his own products is something I kind of didn't expect, except for the rubs.
