CookOut...41 Milkshakes....and I have to drive 4 hours to get one.. Salisbury MD. Bonus points: Bible verses on each cup. Chick-Fil-a does make the BEST Lemonade--and the Sugar Free is to die for.
I heard there was a dude who made an app that was linked to McDonalds' database so you could see what McDonald's machines were working at any point in time.
only 3 steak n shake in DFW and two are terrible, wish they improved the brand but not looking good. Tye do have great shakes just super sweet like most end up being.
I'm thinking maybe that nickel taste you got from the Frosty might have been the aneurysm you gave yourself trying to drink a Frosty through a straw. LOL
Continued this format? Sir you are mistaken. This is a brand new thing, in no way related to any "worshipping your hierarchy", "praise your preference", "hallelujah to your leaderboard", etc...
A Frosty is a milkshake that waits until you finish the meal to be perfectly melted for drinking. It is a desert drink. You also must start with the straw at the outer edges. You don't start in the center.
Thanks for the shout out about the death of Arby's potato cakes. My sisters and I still morn their loss. On the up side, the cafeteria at my cancer hospital serves an almost identical product. When I have to go in for scans, it is my treat at the end.
As someone who has worked at both Hardee's (we were handscooping in 2001) and Sonic, thank you for the representation! IMHO, Whataburger shakes are pretty high up there.
Matt: _disses Arby’s for just putting chocolate syrup in their vanilla ice cream and calling it a chocolate milkshake_ Also Matt: “Chick-fil-A is the BEST” Chick-fil-A: _literally puts Hershey’s chocolate syrup in their vanilla ice cream and calls it a chocolate milk shake_ (Can’t complain tho it’s still delicious)
DQ REALLY has no rules. My youngest always ordered a hot fudge sundae with no cherry, no nuts, no whipped cream, & no ice cream. 😂 Yes, she ordered a cup of hot fudge exactly that way. They loved her there.
That's a child after my heart 😂. I've been known to eat a can of hot fudge years ago when I was a kid with a metabolism. As a teen and a 20 something in the military, I'd do that because Mom wasn't around to tell me "no." 👍
Dairy Queen makes a real milkshake blending ice cream, milk, and chocolate sauce. It isn’t premade, and it’s better than any other than perhaps Sonic and Chik fil a
This ranking is a blessing. Bless you for ranking these milkshakes. Bless your heart for.... IT IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE "BLESS YOUR RANK"!!! #FreeBlessYourRank
That nickle-taste from the Wendy’s Frosty is “edible”, food-grade grease for their machines. And it sometimes leaks into the frosties. My boss got food poisoning once from it and confronted them about it.
This is why I don't get milkshakes that come from dispenser machines. For me it should come together in a blender or a counter top stirrer. I don't like any kind of food that comes from a dispenser machine lol
Chick-fil-A's peppermint milkshake *makes* Christmas time for me, and the banana pudding milkshake is absolute perfection. I'm simultaneously upset they are only seasonal, because I'd love to have them all the time, but glad they're seasonal, because I'd have them all the time (and I wouldn't care that I've turned into a Chick-fil-A version of Violet Beauregarde).
He briefly discussed it in one of his more recent videos, but I agree with the original post. Have have actually unsubscribed from "the other company" because their content just isn't good without Matt.
@@arhodsden Yeah same here. They still have one really talented person left, last I saw, but it's not really enough to watch the channel anymore. There's only so much time in the day.
So happy this is back! You forgot to tell us the criteria though!! But hey maybe that's the difference between this show and something else we may or may not have watched you do. 😏 Thanks again Matt. And editing is on point for this!
That's just BK in general. No idea how they stay in business when their usual experience can be summed up as "occasionally tolerable if all the other fast food places are full".
I agree, I don't get why so many gets bk milkshakes. Especially, even though sonics food is trash also. There shakes are at least good and you get way more for the price. Also after 8pm. It's 50% off
Boo that we're not here for you! I would watch you rank flavors of garden soil just because it's you doing it! Also that would be... hilarious. Just saying.
Yoohoo is, and I'm not kidding you; Just Syrup and Water, Get some Chocolate Syrup and Water, Mix it and drink it side by side with a Yoohoo to compare.
Steak and Shake should have been included too. I know you're doing chocolate shakes, but the peach milkshakes from Chick-fil-A are the best. I look forward to them every year.
You mentioned Sonic as the “Oklahoma export”, which is true nationally, but if you can somehow make it to Oklahoma, try Braums or Del Rancho milkshakes. Those blow the others away
I worked at Hardees in Tennessee in 2005, everyone would come to the Hardees I worked at and requested me to make their milkshakes. I am very picky with my milkshakes and I made them to my standards unless otherwise specified and I like them thick enough to eat with a spoon but still able to drink them through a straw.
Hardee’s burgers are also pretty awesome too…so as a combo…yeah, Hardee’s. I just wish they made a biscuit burger with their fresh made biscuits…can you imagine that? Country ham and cheese burger and chocolate shake. Mmmmm.
This is sadly true.... I am a chocolate lover. But I would wait for two non-chocolate shakes all year. The Shamrock and the Eggnog shakes. I would get so excited when it was that time of the year. They were my favorites. Now they are just disappointing and sad. 😢
@emilyconner7493 also, the creamsikle like 'arctic orange', but haven't seen it in a couple or 4 years. It was a perfect summer shake. But alas never to be even when the shake machines work about 4 months a year..
Matt, I'd watch you rank paperclips in a paper sack. This was always my favorite segment of...that other thing...and I'm so freaking happy to see it again!! My husband came running in from the garage and said in a very excited voice, "MATT RANKED MILKSHAKES!!" Did not disappoint, my man! Keep ranking stuff!!
An experience in revolting, yeah Mint makes my skin crawl and peppermint makes me want to vomit just from smelling it. I can't get it anywhere near my mouth.
Butterscotch milkshake. . . it was the best thing I'd ever had, when I was a kid. Haven't seen one on a menu, anywhere, in ages. Too bad, really. Just thought I'd add it to your "Why'd that go away?" list. That was back when you still saw a lot of butternut icing cakes with pecans stuck on them, like an outbreak of some sort. On Hardee's: I mean, if they had a biscuit shake I might believe it...the gentleman's club of fast food commercials? That can't be right.
As someone used to work at Arbys throughout High School during the age of the Arby-Q, the milkshakes work by excreting the vanilla ice cream and the syrup just streams out through a separate tube. It always results in a uneven mix. (Jamocha is the best, just remember that it will require some manual mixing)
Was also no milk used. That’s why the never called them milk shakes. They were just “shakes.” Pretty sure someone sued them for misrepresenting their milkshakes.
Matt, if you are EVER in the greater Columbia, SC area, I HIGHLY recommend you (or anyone else) get a milkshake from Rush's, a local chain there. Their milkshakes aren't thick, like McDonalds, but dang if they aren't some of the tastiest. I'm originally from that area and still have family there, and whenever I visit, a Rush's stop is always required. Also, they have peach milkshakes year round
matt didn't know you left them myself but just want you to know your one of the main reason i even hit the sub button over there and i'm happy to see you doing your own thing now and i hope it goes will for you good job on the milkshake video little shocked at the ranking i would think DQ would of been up there in the top but not really that shocked to see it in the back i didn't even think they still offed shakes anymore xD
This video made me so happy. I was just telling my husband the other day that I probably would see the ranking videos anymore. I'm very glad that I was wrong.
Arby’s machine has four different syrups plugged into one machine that come out of one nozzle. To go from one flavor to another, the flavor has to be washed from the tube to get another flavor like chocolate. The shake was swirled because the shake last shake made was another flavor and the chocolate syrup was not fully in the machine yet.
CFA really does have the best milkshakes, especially their seasonal flavors. They also add a good amount of whipped cream and a cherry. Arby’s best is the jamoca!! Hardee’s uses vanilla ice cream and Hershey’s chocolate syrup. 😝 Wendy’s chocolate Frosty’s are my favorite! The straw goes along the sides of the cup, not down the middle.
In the 90's the DQ shakes were served in their soft drink cups, so a medium shake was the same size as a large blizzard. You could order an extra thick chocolate shake with coconut and pecans and you'd basically have a german chocolate blizzard that you could get larger than the largest blizzard for less.
When I was a kid, this was back in the 70's now mind you, the shamrock shake was the best. I waited all year for it. Unfortunately, they changed the formula some time in the 80's, and I haven't had one since.😢
Spot on with the two-tone Arby's. Apparently it's the same thru out the chain. If you were ranking Chick's fresh peach shake it would knock all the rest off the table.
In our town Kash N Karry, cough cough years ago, was tops over Winn Dixie, Albertsons, Food Lion, and even Publix. These days, it be Publix. Hy-Vee making a push into mid south; I have yet to take a crack. Kroger tries, and I appreciate their baked option. Something is just wrong with Food Lion. Walmart? Hell no. And I don't even know if Food City even has fried chicken. Probably? Someone in the Carolinas could also compare Lowes. And also one of the few Harris Teeter still standing. I haven't seen a Piggly Wiggly in ages, last one was near Lake Lure, NC Finally, we come to the dark horse: Wegmans as they pushed into VA, so technically a contender.
In the mid-late 80's Dairy Queen had good shakes. I worked at one and used to make a vanilla one and put the chocolate dip, what you dipped the cones in, into it and blend it. up. It made a great chocolate chip shake!
when i was younger i distinctly remember burger kings chocolate shakes having a very unique "spiced" flavor type special thing going on and i absolutely loved it..and they always had the awesome ninja turtle toys/vhs tapes
I’ve got a confession to make. I wasn’t coming for the reviews. I came to leave feeling better and you nailed it. You lifted my spirits. But maybe that worked so well only because my mood was like deep red negative in the pits. So your job was easy. As far as the shake review goes: I haven’t had all of them yet so I can’t speak for the whole lineup BUT your review process was “southern pseudoscientifically thorough”. Well done. Oh, and thanks again for boosting my spirits.
Hey Alma and Tony ❤️ I am sorry you are having crappy weather. It's 84° with beautiful sunshine right now. It's a little windy. I am enjoying it for now. It's supposed to get really windy with rain, later today. It's supposed to rain all week.
As someone who worked at Dairy Queen for three months, you are 100% right. You can put anything into a blizzard, a sundae, a milkshake, as long as it's mixable. It doesn't even matter if it's meant to be eaten with ice cream or not. ...yeah one of my first times working an evening shift there, my coworkers made a small pickle blizzard and a gravy blizzard for everyone to try. there really are no rules once the customers are gone
I just wanted to say, for a significant portion of my childhood, I did not know that a DQ blizzard wasn't a milkshake. After that, I have never been frustrated at trying to get a milkshake up a straw
Fun fact, if you ever go to Australia, it's called a thick shake. If you order a milk shake it's 3 parts milk to 1 part ice cream so it's very very liquidly, a chocolate milk shake is a kin to chocolate milk basically. A thick shake is what we are used to where its more soft serve ice cream than anything with enough milk to make it where it can go through a straw
Wendy's did have Frosty shakes, but they got backlash because you couldn't dip your fries properly. Wendy's has great burgers. There used to be a burger and shake place in Nashville called Dairy King. Their burgers and fries were amazing. The shakes were also great. I want a Jamocha shake now.
Been watching food eating videos for the past month or two and living vicariously through each person I watch (have an eating disorder and unhealthy relationship/ mentality with/ about food and my body). My metabolism could never handle these milkshakes😂
is everyone sleeping on PotBelly? Those are good milkshakes and could be apart of a part two in the future. This is they type of reviews the internet needs, thanks for taking one for the team Matt.
@@chrissysm1981 I'm not sure if there's a whataburger near where i live. i think they are going to be building one soon though. if they do build one i'm definitely going to be getting me one.
Giving one shake the nod over another based on the container and the (tiny bit of) whipped cream is like deciding which steak is better based on the garnish on the plates. It's just wrong.
@@annesullivan2993 there are numerous Jack's in north Alabama. I can count 4 within 15 minutes of where I live. I know of at least one in Morgan county off the top of my head.
@@annesullivan2993 I just realized you may be thinking of Jack in the box. I don't think we have those, but Jack's is a burger chain fairly common in this area. I was referring to the latter.
It’s funny to hear about the the tie dye shakes and knowing CFA Is the same just hidden by the styrofoam cup. Worked there for 6 years, and all it is is our shake base to the red line you see on the cup, ice cream (technically called ice dream but I always thought it was corny) to about 1/4 inch from the top and 2 pumps of Hershey syrup. It’s up there for me as a something you can dip the fries in with Wendy’s.
Literally cannot wait to watch it when I get home from work, appreciate you and your content Matt; Bless Your Rank was such a comfort show for me, and I am so glad you are staying true to yourself and continuing with your passion!
Hardee’s hand scooped shakes were the best!!! Matt, you missed Culver’s, Braums and Whataburger. I would think they would all rank pretty highly in this mix. Especially Braums.
I thought the same thing about him missing Braum’s but learned from their very informative website that they only have stores open in an approximately 330 mile radius from their processing plant and distribution center so the milk is fresh. Like apparently around 36 hours from cow to store fresh. Matt lives in Alabama which is outside of that radius. They also have an entire timeline of their business on their website which I think is pretty neat and wanted to share. 😁
Now this is top flight Ranking. Helping the community and slagging Wendy’s. (Also Dairy Queen in the olden days had incredible hamburgers. Their food is inedible now)
Matt trying to persuade himself that hurting nature is justified for getting the best kind of milkshake container is so funny lol. Also, I'm so on board with the beef shake
Oky great video As I am the only living person I know who’s ever ordered a burgerking shake cause I was desperate it’s not good 2. We just got back from the south and we have no wattaburger and I really needed to know how the wattaburger vs chick fe la was at and was slightly disappointed to not see it show up Thanks for keeping me entertained during my night shift job the editing was killing me I was laughing so hard Can’t wait to watch more of these
Matt, launching the paper sleeves from a straw is both an art and science. And it's one of the few things I can do with deadly accuracy, as my daughter will attest. (Yeah, looking back, I might not have been the best influence on her. But she's in college and on track to get both her bachelors and masters degrees, so I must have done something right.) EDIT: MATT! You want to blow the wrappers off the straws? STOP BANGING THEM ON THE TABLE! That's Mistake Numero Uno! Puts holes in the paper envelope. Those holes vent air out, and your wrapper is just going to be left hanging on your straw.

Great video but what about my precious Whataburger?
😂
@@benjaminhurt8280 - I think he’s probably still scarred from the Sour Tea Incident.
Can we not do both?? Just saying 😅
CookOut...41 Milkshakes....and I have to drive 4 hours to get one.. Salisbury MD. Bonus points: Bible verses on each cup. Chick-Fil-a does make the BEST Lemonade--and the Sugar Free is to die for.
The twist of McDonald’s milkshake machine actually working was something I was not expecting
I heard there was a dude who made an app that was linked to McDonalds' database so you could see what McDonald's machines were working at any point in time.
I thought the same.
Lol same
I work there as a second job and ours always works!
Truly a miracle.
We need a part 2 with Culver’s, Checkers, Cookout, and Steak ‘n Shake!
Maybe Freddy’s, too? In the Midwest they’re basically a slightly higher tier version of Steak N Shake.
Checker’s chocolate milkshake is awesome
Was hoping to see a Steak 'n Shake on here, they are so good!
only 3 steak n shake in DFW and two are terrible, wish they improved the brand but not looking good. Tye do have great shakes just super sweet like most end up being.
Culver’s is not a southern place
I'm thinking maybe that nickel taste you got from the Frosty might have been the aneurysm you gave yourself trying to drink a Frosty through a straw. LOL
🤣👊🏼
The only way to enjoy a Frosty is with a spoon. IMHO it's more like soft serve ice cream.
You eat the frosty with a spoon after you're done dipping your fries in it. Everybody knows that lol
Matt apparently got the only Sonic shake that can be sucked through a straw.
You aren't lying 😂😂😂
They have thicker straws now, so it's easier to eat.
Fr
By the time you get your first sip of the shake, the straw is so warped that it might as well break the laws of physics
The best milkshakes ever unless you make them at home 😀
Matt, the editing on this is legitimately hilarious. I’m so glad you continued this format. We were there and will be there to watch you regardless.
I am very fortunate to have the previous editor work with me again on these again. He’s an editing wizard.
@@alostrich that’s great. It’s very entertaining! Look forward to more videos in the future.
Continued this format? Sir you are mistaken. This is a brand new thing, in no way related to any "worshipping your hierarchy", "praise your preference", "hallelujah to your leaderboard", etc...

@@neverlistentome Salute your selections.
A Frosty is a milkshake that waits until you finish the meal to be perfectly melted for drinking. It is a desert drink. You also must start with the straw at the outer edges. You don't start in the center.
A true connoisseur.
Or you just dip your fries in it while you eat
@@torav8343 yesssss
Frosties are soft serve, they don't count as a milkshake.
You can also add in a Jr. Frosty to Wendy's coffee. Makes the coffee insanely good. Trust me, it saw me through long nights behind the counter.
Thanks for the shout out about the death of Arby's potato cakes. My sisters and I still morn their loss. On the up side, the cafeteria at my cancer hospital serves an almost identical product. When I have to go in for scans, it is my treat at the end.
As someone who has worked at both Hardee's (we were handscooping in 2001) and Sonic, thank you for the representation! IMHO, Whataburger shakes are pretty high up there.
Whataburger shakes, taste like freezer, burnt ice cream.
I would've loved to have seen Cookout added to the list
Cookout hot fugde milkshake 😋
Oh heck yeah!
Whataburger too
The blueberry cheesecake shake, they actually mix in a slice of cheesecake.
Cook-Out peanut butter fudge milkshake
"Potato Cakes? No, We suck so we canceled those". Most accurate statement, ever.
And with that, it’s not worth darkening their drive through.
Loved potato cakes.... Fk
I legit drove off halfway through my order when they told me their potato cakes were no more. Haven't been back since. RIP PCs
Yup biggest mistake Arby’s ever made, getting rid of potato cakes.😡
Find an Arby's with breakfast and you will find potato cakes
If you're ranking Sonic shakes that high then a Whataburger shake is going to blow your mind.
Especially the Banana Pudding shake
Sonic & Whataburger shakes are both on the same level for me, but Sonic has the upper hand with the fact it has whipped cream
Matt: _disses Arby’s for just putting chocolate syrup in their vanilla ice cream and calling it a chocolate milkshake_
Also Matt: “Chick-fil-A is the BEST”
Chick-fil-A: _literally puts Hershey’s chocolate syrup in their vanilla ice cream and calls it a chocolate milk shake_
(Can’t complain tho it’s still delicious)
🤪 L I T E R A L L Y 🤪
CFA puts the syrup in their IceDREAM, and THAT is the difference.
Shake base first, syrup, then ice dream. It's the shake base that makes it. Just wonderful creamy milk goodness😂
Ice cream? Pretty sure Chick fila just uses powder mix
DQ REALLY has no rules. My youngest always ordered a hot fudge sundae with no cherry, no nuts, no whipped cream, & no ice cream. 😂
Yes, she ordered a cup of hot fudge exactly that way. They loved her there.
LoL 😂 Clever girl. Knew what she wanted and exactly how to get it.

HOW BOUT THEM DAWGS
Go Gonzaga Bulldogs. Yeah, I don't care
I love how Matt describes it as an accidental amount of whipped cream.
That nickle-taste from the Wendy’s Frosty is “edible”, food-grade grease for their machines. And it sometimes leaks into the frosties. My boss got food poisoning once from it and confronted them about it.

@rarevisionog so you don't eat ice cream at all. Factories use dispensers.
Yes, I feel BLESSED to be watching you RANK these milkshakes. And....now I'm off to go buy one myself. Such a bad influence, Matt. LOL
So glad you brought up the Jamocha shake.. the only one I ever order at Arbys
Flashbacks to "Arby's Meats That Are Yum". Greatest song parody ever.
I don't like jamocha I get the chocolate
Chick-fil-A's peppermint milkshake *makes* Christmas time for me, and the banana pudding milkshake is absolute perfection. I'm simultaneously upset they are only seasonal, because I'd love to have them all the time, but glad they're seasonal, because I'd have them all the time (and I wouldn't care that I've turned into a Chick-fil-A version of Violet Beauregarde).
I haven't laughed this hard in awhile. You can see how that sugar was really affecting him halfway through lol.
Matt is the hero that America needs right now.
You were the best part of that other company and I'm glad you're back doing your thing on your terms Matt!
I love that we get twice as many videos now
Am I missing something here? Did Matt get let go at "that other company"? Because that's crazy.

I am convinced that the frostie is made of the same mysterious milk like substance that yoohoo is made of
Yoohoo is, and I'm not kidding you; Just Syrup and Water, Get some Chocolate Syrup and Water, Mix it and drink it side by side with a Yoohoo to compare.
Both have whey in them, so maybe?
Yeah was gonna say "you mean chocolate water?"
Agreed, which is why I hate frosties.
@@tylerwisner8682 Yoohoo is more than "Syrup and Water". Ain't no syrup that gots milk solids in it like Yoohoo does.
Zaxby's used to have a killer Banana Pudding shake, but they got rid of it some odd years ago. Really wish they'd bring it back
Matt: These are so good! What are they putting in their milkshakes?!
Chik-fil-A: Love, Matt. Christ’s love, and it’s our pleasure to serve you. ❤
lol @christers
Steak and Shake should have been included too. I know you're doing chocolate shakes, but the peach milkshakes from Chick-fil-A are the best. I look forward to them every year.
That sounds so good! We don't have a chick-fil-a!
The Hershey's Special Dark chocolate shake is good!
Yes, I thought he was going to bring it out right after Sonic.
I came to say the same thing. Steak and shake.
CFL Peach Milkshake can’t be beat. Looking forward to June.
Your rankings were my favorite segment when you were with the other company.
So I’m thrilled to see this again.
You mentioned Sonic as the “Oklahoma export”, which is true nationally, but if you can somehow make it to Oklahoma, try Braums or Del Rancho milkshakes. Those blow the others away
Growing up in the east side of the state, Del Rancho was a treat I got for 4 years. It’s good but I must go with Braum’s
Aw man! I was so hoping you would have included a Whataburger shake. Their shakes are amazing…especially the Dr. Pepper shake
I have missed these Bless Your Rank shows! Bring on the competition! Matt, keep being awesome!
I worked at Hardees in Tennessee in 2005, everyone would come to the Hardees I worked at and requested me to make their milkshakes. I am very picky with my milkshakes and I made them to my standards unless otherwise specified and I like them thick enough to eat with a spoon but still able to drink them through a straw.
Arby’s discontinued their Italian subs and shockingly the potato cakes which sucks as they were both delicious.
Hardee’s burgers are also pretty awesome too…so as a combo…yeah, Hardee’s. I just wish they made a biscuit burger with their fresh made biscuits…can you imagine that? Country ham and cheese burger and chocolate shake. Mmmmm.
The editing is soooo good 👏 I laughed out loud so many times! Thank you for bringing BYR back!!
Matt's doing rankings again? Everything is right in the world again
I know that Jack's is regional, but they should've been included because their shakes, all flavors, are the VERY best!!!
I can’t let you slander Cookout like that! 😂
It's not technically a milkshake, or chocolate but the frosted lemonade at chic fil a is damn near delectable
I'm excited for the rankings to be back with Matt!
I must say, I miss the shakes before the McCafe. They were so much better.
OMG! Same! Thought I was the only one to think so!
McDonald's started the triple thick shake back in the mid 90's. I have no clue why they stopped.
This is sadly true....
I am a chocolate lover. But I would wait for two non-chocolate shakes all year. The Shamrock and the Eggnog shakes. I would get so excited when it was that time of the year. They were my favorites. Now they are just disappointing and sad. 😢
@emilyconner7493 also, the creamsikle like 'arctic orange', but haven't seen it in a couple or 4 years. It was a perfect summer shake. But alas never to be even when the shake machines work about 4 months a year..

When you went in on Sonic about their burgers, I couldn't help but die laughing. You are so correct.
The Chick Fil A Christmas Peppermint Milkshake is truly a special experience.
I love the peach milkshake in the summer.
I like asking them to put Oreos in the peppermint shake!!it makes it SOOOO good!
That is the best milkshake in history. McDonald’s shamrock shake is trash by comparison
@@livingforJesus70x7 You just blew my mind. 🤯
An experience in revolting, yeah
Mint makes my skin crawl and peppermint makes me want to vomit just from smelling it. I can't get it anywhere near my mouth.
Matt you are a true warrior, willing to risk your life to save us from inferior milkshakes.
Butterscotch milkshake. . . it was the best thing I'd ever had, when I was a kid. Haven't seen one on a menu, anywhere, in ages. Too bad, really. Just thought I'd add it to your "Why'd that go away?" list.

On Hardee's: I mean, if they had a biscuit shake I might believe it...the gentleman's club of fast food commercials? That can't be right.
McDonald milkshake containers make perfect little mini greenhouses to start seeds in the spring. I save them all year just for that.
As someone used to work at Arbys throughout High School during the age of the Arby-Q, the milkshakes work by excreting the vanilla ice cream and the syrup just streams out through a separate tube. It always results in a uneven mix. (Jamocha is the best, just remember that it will require some manual mixing)
"Excreting" is probably not the most appetizing word to use.
I remember when a "shake" was such a simple thing from McDonald's no toppings no plastic. Those were the days 😅
And it worked with the French fries they made back in the day too.
Was also no milk used. That’s why the never called them milk shakes. They were just “shakes.” Pretty sure someone sued them for misrepresenting their milkshakes.
Back when milkshakes didn't need a SHOPVAC to get through a straw, riiight?!
The machine always worked back then too.
Matt, if you are EVER in the greater Columbia, SC area, I HIGHLY recommend you (or anyone else) get a milkshake from Rush's, a local chain there. Their milkshakes aren't thick, like McDonalds, but dang if they aren't some of the tastiest. I'm originally from that area and still have family there, and whenever I visit, a Rush's stop is always required. Also, they have peach milkshakes year round
matt didn't know you left them myself but just want you to know your one of the main reason i even hit the sub button over there and i'm happy to see you doing your own thing now and i hope it goes will for you good job on the milkshake video little shocked at the ranking i would think DQ would of been up there in the top but not really that shocked to see it in the back i didn't even think they still offed shakes anymore xD
This video made me so happy. I was just telling my husband the other day that I probably would see the ranking videos anymore. I'm very glad that I was wrong.
The Sonic "kool-aid" burger killed me 😂😂
Arby’s machine has four different syrups plugged into one machine that come out of one nozzle. To go from one flavor to another, the flavor has to be washed from the tube to get another flavor like chocolate. The shake was swirled because the shake last shake made was another flavor and the chocolate syrup was not fully in the machine yet.
CFA really does have the best milkshakes, especially their seasonal flavors. They also add a good amount of whipped cream and a cherry.
Arby’s best is the jamoca!!
Hardee’s uses vanilla ice cream and Hershey’s chocolate syrup. 😝
Wendy’s chocolate Frosty’s are my favorite! The straw goes along the sides of the cup, not down the middle.
In the 90's the DQ shakes were served in their soft drink cups, so a medium shake was the same size as a large blizzard. You could order an extra thick chocolate shake with coconut and pecans and you'd basically have a german chocolate blizzard that you could get larger than the largest blizzard for less.
Welcome back 🎉 I'm a lil sad Whataburger did make the cut...that dr pepper shake is EVERYTHING!❤
We don’t have Whataburger in the South!
@@feliciabooher9787 lies we got them in Texas everywhere
we have one just outside of Nashville and they are building a second one in Mt Juliet, just a little further east of the one I mentioned.
@@andrewgamez7973 There is one in Ruston, Louisiana. Not sure about anywhere else in Louisiana though.
Whataburger is a Texan Exclusive with the other southern states getting a taste. You know that.
When I was a kid, this was back in the 70's now mind you, the shamrock shake was the best. I waited all year for it. Unfortunately, they changed the formula some time in the 80's, and I haven't had one since.😢
Spot on with the two-tone Arby's. Apparently it's the same thru out the chain. If you were ranking Chick's fresh peach shake it would knock all the rest off the table.
I'm glad BYR is back. Those were always fun to watch on [that other channel that we can't discuss I guess]
I just wanna know where this was discussed
Matt carried that channel
I would love to see you rank Southern Grocery Store Deli Fried Chicken. Everyone has their favorite. I'd love to see how they all rank.
pig has the best in my town
Harps is delicious
In our town Kash N Karry, cough cough years ago, was tops over Winn Dixie, Albertsons, Food Lion, and even Publix.
These days, it be Publix. Hy-Vee making a push into mid south; I have yet to take a crack. Kroger tries, and I appreciate their baked option. Something is just wrong with Food Lion. Walmart? Hell no. And I don't even know if Food City even has fried chicken. Probably?
Someone in the Carolinas could also compare Lowes. And also one of the few Harris Teeter still standing. I haven't seen a Piggly Wiggly in ages, last one was near Lake Lure, NC
Finally, we come to the dark horse: Wegmans as they pushed into VA, so technically a contender.
harris teeter is a bit too fancy for me but their fried chicken rocks
@@starrycat6185 That's good to know, about the chicken, I mean.
In the mid-late 80's Dairy Queen had good shakes. I worked at one and used to make a vanilla one and put the chocolate dip, what you dipped the cones in, into it and blend it. up. It made a great chocolate chip shake!
when i was younger i distinctly remember burger kings chocolate shakes having a very unique "spiced" flavor type special thing going on and i absolutely loved it..and they always had the awesome ninja turtle toys/vhs tapes
I’ve got a confession to make.
I wasn’t coming for the reviews. I came to leave feeling better and you nailed it. You lifted my spirits. But maybe that worked so well only because my mood was like deep red negative in the pits. So your job was easy.
As far as the shake review goes: I haven’t had all of them yet so I can’t speak for the whole lineup BUT your review process was “southern pseudoscientifically thorough”. Well done.
Oh, and thanks again for boosting my spirits.
Matt, you just made my day. You helped get my mind off this weather.
Hey Alma and Tony ❤️ I am sorry you are having crappy weather. It's 84° with beautiful sunshine right now. It's a little windy. I am enjoying it for now. It's supposed to get really windy with rain, later today. It's supposed to rain all week.
@@robylove9190 thank you, friend. We're supposed to get severe weather tonight and again on Tuesday.
As someone who worked at Dairy Queen for three months, you are 100% right. You can put anything into a blizzard, a sundae, a milkshake, as long as it's mixable. It doesn't even matter if it's meant to be eaten with ice cream or not.
...yeah one of my first times working an evening shift there, my coworkers made a small pickle blizzard and a gravy blizzard for everyone to try. there really are no rules once the customers are gone
I’m so so glad these are back!! Keep ‘em coming!!
I just wanted to say, for a significant portion of my childhood, I did not know that a DQ blizzard wasn't a milkshake. After that, I have never been frustrated at trying to get a milkshake up a straw
When chic fil a brings back the peach milkshake every year, no other fast food spot matters.
Fun fact, if you ever go to Australia, it's called a thick shake. If you order a milk shake it's 3 parts milk to 1 part ice cream so it's very very liquidly, a chocolate milk shake is a kin to chocolate milk basically. A thick shake is what we are used to where its more soft serve ice cream than anything with enough milk to make it where it can go through a straw
My grandma taught me about hard work by taking me to Wendy’s and getting me a chocolate frosty.
have you tried their strawberry ones? Those are amazing!
Absolutely CHEERING that you're back to ranking!! Thanks, Matt!
Wendy's did have Frosty shakes, but they got backlash because you couldn't dip your fries properly. Wendy's has great burgers. There used to be a burger and shake place in Nashville called Dairy King. Their burgers and fries were amazing. The shakes were also great. I want a Jamocha shake now.
Been watching food eating videos for the past month or two and living vicariously through each person I watch (have an eating disorder and unhealthy relationship/ mentality with/ about food and my body). My metabolism could never handle these milkshakes😂
Matt, you make anything and everything funny lol. That drum solo was fire 🔥
Don't know if they still make them, but Hardees had a Peach Milkshake in the early 90's. So friggin good.
I just can't accept that the Lord's Chicken was bumped out of first place by a smiling star. CFA for life!
is everyone sleeping on PotBelly? Those are good milkshakes and could be apart of a part two in the future. This is they type of reviews the internet needs, thanks for taking one for the team Matt.
Finally, someone is out here ranking something that's actually important.
i miss when hardee's had the option for malted milkshakes. i loved those and having it with a little extra malt in it.
When I worked at Sonic in high school they had malts. Not sure if they still do though. It was just a milkshake with malt powder added to it.
Whataburger has malts! They are awesome!
@@chrissysm1981 I'm not sure if there's a whataburger near where i live. i think they are going to be building one soon though. if they do build one i'm definitely going to be getting me one.
Freddy’s also does malts
Giving one shake the nod over another based on the container and the (tiny bit of) whipped cream is like deciding which steak is better based on the garnish on the plates. It's just wrong.
A&W, Culvers, Cookout and Steak n Shake needs to be in volume 2
I'm surprised Jack's wasn't reviewed. They're pretty good shakes
Yeah wondering if they're too small to make the cut or something.
No Jack's in Alabama so they don't get the good shakes. Or the tacos, that really belong in their own food group.
@@annesullivan2993 there are numerous Jack's in north Alabama. I can count 4 within 15 minutes of where I live. I know of at least one in Morgan county off the top of my head.
@@annesullivan2993 I just realized you may be thinking of Jack in the box. I don't think we have those, but Jack's is a burger chain fairly common in this area. I was referring to the latter.
It’s funny to hear about the the tie dye shakes and knowing CFA Is the same just hidden by the styrofoam cup. Worked there for 6 years, and all it is is our shake base to the red line you see on the cup, ice cream (technically called ice dream but I always thought it was corny) to about 1/4 inch from the top and 2 pumps of Hershey syrup. It’s up there for me as a something you can dip the fries in with Wendy’s.
4:37 ...Plasma. It's the state of matter of lightning also the sun. And, apparently, a Frosty. Hey, new ad campaign!
Somebody get this man a frosted lemonade from Chik FIL A. Watch his head explode.
Literally cannot wait to watch it when I get home from work, appreciate you and your content Matt; Bless Your Rank was such a comfort show for me, and I am so glad you are staying true to yourself and continuing with your passion!
Hardee’s hand scooped shakes were the best!!!
Matt, you missed Culver’s, Braums and Whataburger. I would think they would all rank pretty highly in this mix. Especially Braums.
Culver’s and Whataburger!
I moved away from Braums several years ago and I miss it so much! They are the best ❤️
I thought the same thing about him missing Braum’s but learned from their very informative website that they only have stores open in an approximately 330 mile radius from their processing plant and distribution center so the milk is fresh. Like apparently around 36 hours from cow to store fresh. Matt lives in Alabama which is outside of that radius.
They also have an entire timeline of their business on their website which I think is pretty neat and wanted to share. 😁
Braum's would kill'em all!
Brauuuums, I grew up in Oklahoma and honestly nothing touches them
The awkward moment when you mention a meat milkshake and BK not having a milkshake but a few years back BK had a bacon milkshake and a bacon sundae 😂😂
I could watch Bless Your Rank all day. 😂 Glad it’s back!
I upvoted this just on the call to keep Styrofoam cups for milkshakes.
Honestly. In N Out’s Neapolitan milkshake is absolutely fantastic. 10/10 would recommend.
Now this is top flight Ranking. Helping the community and slagging Wendy’s. (Also Dairy Queen in the olden days had incredible hamburgers. Their food is inedible now)
Matt trying to persuade himself that hurting nature is justified for getting the best kind of milkshake container is so funny lol. Also, I'm so on board with the beef shake
Glad to see you back at it Matt!
I missed the ranking series so much glad to be watching it again
Yes I remember Wendy's having Frosty shakes as well. Seems like it was sometime in the 20 teens? 2015-2018 sometime during that period?
Oky great video
As I am the only living person I know who’s ever ordered a burgerking shake cause I was desperate it’s not good
2. We just got back from the south and we have no wattaburger and I really needed to know how the wattaburger vs chick fe la was at and was slightly disappointed to not see it show up
Thanks for keeping me entertained during my night shift job the editing was killing me I was laughing so hard
Can’t wait to watch more of these
Matt, launching the paper sleeves from a straw is both an art and science. And it's one of the few things I can do with deadly accuracy, as my daughter will attest. (Yeah, looking back, I might not have been the best influence on her. But she's in college and on track to get both her bachelors and masters degrees, so I must have done something right.)
EDIT: MATT! You want to blow the wrappers off the straws? STOP BANGING THEM ON THE TABLE! That's Mistake Numero Uno! Puts holes in the paper envelope. Those holes vent air out, and your wrapper is just going to be left hanging on your straw.
