How to Cook a Mississippi Slugburger with George Motz | Burger Scholar Sessions
소스 코드
- 게시일 2020. 05. 04.
- Burger Scholar George Motz teaches you how to cook a hyper-regional slugburger from Northern Mississippi. Borne out of the Great Depression, the slugburger patty combines beef and bread crumbs-a method that was used to extend the meat supply. As the bread crumbs toast on the griddle, they absorb the rendered beef fat, creating the ultimate crispy burger. Here is your master class on how to make a regional slugburger at home.

Aliens??!?!
Looks good. Check out El Reno OK Onion burgers. Every year they have a big onion burger day the first Saturday on May. Not this year because of the pandemic but it would be a good stop. Sid's I think is the best.
Gross. Fucks with hair then touches everything even the Raw meat
Which hair? The ones on your head or those hanging from the ceiling behind you? 😀
bout damn time our guy got his own show
He had a show called Burger Land on the travel channel. Some are uploaded to youtube.
He deserves it so much. I can't wait until the hamburger horseshoe makes a show (central Illinois - patty on Texas toast base, topped with fries and cheese)
@@organizerbmo I live an hour away from where it was invented
@@organizerbmo gotta love middle of America :)
Absolutely! But why not his own channel?
His enjoyment while eating that burger just made the world a little better.
"Augh, oh... SHIT!" -George Motz, 2020
Easily the best part of the video.
You're joking right? Because he's definitely playing his reaction up for the camera. And if you're wearing headphones and hear his chewing. That part is easily the most unbearable of the video hearing him chew along with his fake and over dramatic reaction.
closinginonclosure who cares
@@MikefromQueens Clearly not the people who forget they're watching someone who's playing it up for the camera.
I made these a couple weeks ago. My elderly parent tried it and said these were identical to the burgers her mother used to make. Really made her happy with the memories associated with it. Also amazingly good!
"The value of appreciating a regional burger like this is that you get to go back and time and experience what somebody may have experienced 100 years ago. It's about method. It's about the method of cooking, and keeping things simple, and keeping things historically accurate."
That's history in its most beautiful form right there. It shouldn't be about learning dates and names. It should be about culture and understanding the past in a visceral way. Something that makes you proud of where you come from.
That means you are proud of racism.
Except he ignored what actually makes the burger a slugburger. Soy flour (soy has always been 1 of the 3 main crops in the state, especially the NE corner) and pork. During the depression, if you were having to extend your meat in this area, you couldn't afford beef of any kind, to use day old bread like that (it was softened for meals with buttermilk, molasses, and gravy), and soy flour was the cheapest. Most southern food is the food that couldn't be sold with the rest of the crops or animals. Greens, livers, gravy (all the kinds), okra, and so many other foods were considered "poor people" food for a very long time. Now you can spend hundreds at a restaurant for southern, or soul food, and it tastes horrible. Because they do what George did. "Eh, I don't believe people really ate it this way even though they still do it, so I'll do it my way" I don't even really like them, but if someone is going to say they're preserving the history of a burger, they should do that. Hell, slugburger info is in the library and any librarian would have happily sent him information about it from here.
@@hulksmash8159 What's the problem with that?
I'm glad he finally is doing his own show, even if it took the apocalypse in order for him to do so.
Honestly, it's a slight bummer that Alvin isn't on here but it's probably for the best. Dude needs to sit out on some of these heart attack-inducing burger shows and work on his health first. He gained a lot of weight, REALLY fast.
A Utah Man am I
@@travistotle Alvin didn't add much to the show anyway, I don't feel like we're missing out on much without him.
I wish we could all lay off Alvin even just a little bit. If I was watching The Heroin Show, I wouldn't be all on the host's case for doing heroin. "Hey you! Yeah, you, the host of The Heroin Show, you look a little unhealthy, and it bothers me!" Like, did you think the host of a show about burgers wouldn't be obese?
I 100% agree. I'm so here for these
THE BURGER JESUS HAS BLESSED US AGAIN WITH HIS GOSPEL
WOAH WOAH WOAH!!! Let me get this perfectly straight: You comment something that is completely unrelated to the fact that I have two HAZARDOUSLY HOT girlfriends? Considering that I am the unprettiest KRplusr worldwide, it is really incredible. Yet you did not mention it at all. I am VERY disappointed, dear rahan
@@AxxLAfriku what df you talking about lmaooo
Everybody in the kitchen say AMEN!
@@Nene_760 It's probably a bot trying to get subscribers. They reply or comment something irrelevant to the context to get people curious enough to check their profile.
AMEN
He's like a fusion of Guy Fieri and James May, I only wish this episode was longer, that was great!
What a comment 😂
@Salvador Dalí It's the fountain of weird, specific knowledge like May, and the excitability and pure enjoyment of Fieri, just with a lot less references to Flavortown and more swearing. For all their annoyances, they are both entertaining, and so is Mr. Motz.
And Johnny Knoxville
Cheese.
Salvador Dalí Ahahaha
"My name is George Motz and it is my job to preserve hamburger history"
My goddamn hero
Just him staring at the patty while it sizzles is something i didnt know i needed. That smoke alarm was also great
I'm amazed he doesn't either have them all disconnected, or at least a quick method for covering them while cooking. That must happen to him every day!
Spoiler alert
That's the way I stare at burgers while they're cooking too 😂
Lol 😊
5 minutes :(
I need much more Burger Scholar in my life than that.
But seriously, love Motz!
Scott Guest me too bro...he is wise, entertaining, funny and looks like a down to earth guy...so much better than Alvin
Need this vids to be longer!!
Hydra yeh, agreed. It would make way more sense for george to host the burger show
More is necessary 😊
Please adopt me. I’m 33 so most of the hard stuff is done.
"Most" ahahah
You donkey
@@ronjeremy1232 you’ll never get adopted with that mouth sir.
@@ronjeremy1232 look in the mirror, is that a donkey?
@@mathoose6821 he's clearly a stallion he's called ronjeremy123 for god's sake
"My job is to preserve American burger history." You're doing the lord's work.
As Northern Mississippian, I salute you! Thanks for keeping the tradition alive, those things are mad tasty.
as a south mississippian i had never heard of this but can't wait to try it!
From Tupelo, we had a place called Dudie's that served them. You can still get them at Johnnie's.
@@stephenkingsley_ Nice I'll check that place out sometime, I haven't had one in years
@forwardgrappling I grew up in south Mississippi an moved to north Mississippi for years but go to corinth Mississippi and go to borums downtown corinth and you'll understand how delicious these are
YES, YES IT HAS COME
He shot this himself and it looks better than most things on KRplus.
Luke Berg I read it as “he shot himself and it looks better” first
@@outoforder1603 I read the first half and immediately got concerned and re-read it LOL
He didnt shoot this himself wtf you talking about
Big N Small Catches 🤦🏻♂️His daughter is running a second cam and he’s marking sound in the first 10 seconds. What are YOU talking about?
Luke Berg wtf you talking about thos was filmed by first we feast and his daughter does audio ... he didnt record this by himself sorry
George Motz is a treasure of all humanity
Yes! Finally, but these need to be longer!
yeah im gonna need a min of 10 minutes with uncle George talkin burgs.
I'm hoping this gets enough views for him to continue doing them, and making them longer.
@@nowthatsurban honestly I think the comments on all Alvin's videos basically solidified him sticking around.
hey thank you for highlighting the slug burger. i ate these all the time living in Corinth mississippi and burnsville mississippi. and you are right they use ALOT of soybean flour these days. also you showed a picture of the one i went to in corinth. cool beans dude ty for the trip down memory lane.
They used soy flour then, too. As well as pork. Soy is and was a staple crop. Poor people couldn't afford beef. Yesterday's bread was used for today's meals and softened with (for breakfast) butter, molasses, (jelly, jam if any had been made); or gravy and for lunch or supper it was softened with butter and/or gravy; and sometimes as a snack, it was put in a glass of buttermilk and eaten that way. My family's been here generations and some of the stuff seemed weird to me (I grew up somewhere else) until I realized it was leftover from the depression era. A lot of people who raised cattle never had a proper steak until the late 40s or 50s in this area.
Thank you for posting positivity in these hard times and thank you for showing to us America's different regional burgers. It satisfies me to see age old recipes using different preparations we might not have known or thought about.
I want more episodes immediately, Motz is a hero, and the more ways to cook a burger the better
Glad to see you’ve finally got your own show, George. I was initially introduced to your work through FWF, and your book has been a proud addition to the coffee table book pile ever since.
We need more of George!!
George Motz has Such a Lovely Personality, i mean like hamburgers and all but not more then that, but when he talks bout it, he just makes it SO interrresting!
Yeah, Alvin is a nice guy but he's just doesn't have the presence or knowledge to really have his own show.
I just found this probably because I previously looked up how to cook a slug burger and got a cornmeal version of the recipe. That was pretty good too. But I'm glad I happened upon this one! George has a great presenter voice. Happy to get in on the ground floor of this channel and I can't wait to see more from him!
This series is LONG overdue. Can't wait for more episodes.
George is such an excellent host! So knowledgeable & overall great presence on camera!
lmao you can see the smoke settling in his home now that's dedication.
By the end of this series his house will have a permanent beef smell, if it doesn’t already
Reminds me of my father in the kitchen
This dude inspired me to start making smash burgers quite a few months ago. I’ve finally got it down and my burgers have NEVER been better. That said, it really sucks making them because when you’re done the house legit smells like a diner. And not in a good way.
@@likestoospooge Yep. Have become a full on smash burger convert. That said, the cast iron griddle on the gas grill outside is your best friend if the weather cooperates. This is coming from a person with a six burner dual-fuel indoor range with an industrial-style hood capable of lifting a small child off the floor.
the house looks more and more heavenly, as the burger becomes ready lol
I'm glad this guy finally got his own show
HEY!!!! Congrats George!!! Finally someone who really deserves that big break gets it - so happy for you man! My wife likes the show too - and hopefully that will be the tipping point for her to let me get one of those fancy little flat tops! Congrats again George, you deserve it and keep up the great work :)
The editing turns his lack of experience in media into a positive. His nervousness is a charm.
Thanks Motz. Look forward to more!
I like how he eats the one burger me made and makes his daughter film it without offering her one.
You can get these at Phillip’s Grocery in Holly Springs, MS.
My partner & I have been waiting for George Motz to get his own show on here!!! His knowledge is outstanding & his joy is infectious!!! He even inspired me...a plant based eater to make a smash burger from scratch... & ACTUALLY ENJOY IT!
I have been excited about George getting his own show since it was announced. This episode did not disappoint.
Being from Mississippi, I was excited to learn about some of the state's history, especially because I've never heard of the Slugburger, and the minute you explained that the burger originated in north Mississippi I immediately understood why I'd never heard of it. For those that don't know, Mississippi might as well be two states. There's North MS and South MS and everything from history to culture are vastly different. Still really cool to learn though! I can't wait to see the next video.
ChrisContinues and if you go to north Mississippi slug burgers are never cooked on a flat top, they’re deep fried. He missed that part, and they were fried because they could cook them fast and get them out the door quicker for more business.
@@xxcosbyxcorexx Well, he did mention that the reaction he was getting from cooking the burger was that it was almost like he was frying the burger but I see your point.If you're going to do a video on the history of burgers you shouldn't cut corners.
I live in North Mississippi and I can confirm that Slugburgers are 100% a thing here. If you're ever in Corinth, MS, stop by the famous White Trolley OR The Slugburger Cafe. It's on Hwy 72 and easy to find. Just ask any local. lol IIRC, the basic Slugburger is still only $1.09. Growing up on the poor side, I've had many of these on a Saturday on the way to the river to catch some Catfish for a fish fry that night. :)
Jason Lewis yep. I eat at slug burger cafe everytime I come home to see my mom. Bring cash bc they don’t take cards of any kind.
@@willp4918 White Trolley to me is probably better. I don't know why I didn't include them in my first response
About time this guy gets his own section!
He’s so knowledgeable about burgers and so likable.
so happy that George finally has a show
Accurate my man! And I should know - we were born n raised in Tupelo ms. I’ve had manyyyy. 😋
Great job George, Alvin, and the Motz fam!! Can't wait for the next serving.
I appreciate you Chef and totally get the bread added to stretch the beef, awesome! AND thank God we have more choices for condiments. That expression on your face after the first bite said, mm mustardy! lol
I love the show keep them coming First We Feast!
I genuinely thought of opening a restaurant one day of just all the regional recipes for burgers because of this guy, he's great hope they keeps this show going
Loving this educational food history. A blessing of a show.
love the details on some of the already shown burgers, just hope we also get to learn about some amazing new burgers as well, even during these times
The first time I saw a video with george I thought it was a one off but I'm so glad hes now a regular. Super knowledgable with a great personality and his passion for burgers is infectious. God bless you george.
So glad that George has his own show now, can't wait for episode 2.
Great content, I love American food history, keep them coming
Hardcore! Anyone notice he’s cooking on a propane fueled flat top in his house? Damn! ❤️
The fire department has joined the chat.
It's probably because you can't shoot 6 feet away from behind most residential stove tops, there's usually a wall involved.
Please bring back these videos. I want to see more recent videos. I love watching these
George Motz definitely deserves more airtime!!
This guy needs to have his own youtube show
This is his own KRplus show XD
TJ redacted you mean his own KRplus channel, kinda like how Ramsey has his own KRplus channel? Because I’m down for that, given that Motz once said that we’ve only scratched the surface of what we can do with a cooked ground beef patty and some bread.
I'm just going to sit here and wait for this to sink in.
So what did I just watch then?
Wehttamman idk but I think if it involved beef cooked in some way and served on bread, we watched the same thing
Literally the simplest burger recipe oh I can’t wait to try making this at home
Use soy flour and pork. Those are historically correct. You can research Mississippi at the time if you want, contact the library in Corinth, MS (and they'll email you the actual history and recipe for them). Or take it from me. My family has been in this little corner for a couple hundred years. My grandmother (who's still alive) was born just before the depression and was raised on these, as was my mother. Soy and pork were used a lot since they were cheap and everywhere.
I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS SERIES! I make smash burgers with caramelized onions every week because of you, George!
So stoked for this new series. George is a fantastic human.
This is awesome. It's everything I wanted out of George's book but didn't get.
There was a video posted recently on Ballistic Burger about the original Slug Burger that somewhat contradicts the recipe/process that George has in this video. Worth watching and would also love to hear George's take on the differences- thought I doubt George will see this comment.
Greg from ballistic burger is an amateur. He knows next to nothing about burgers, he cries if people want him to cut them in half and he's a Trumper.
@@hulksmash8159 he cites his sources, and I don’t see how his politics (which I’ve never seen in his videos) has anything to do with him cooking burgers
@@hulksmash8159 Being a "Trumper" has nothing to do with burger expertise. Please evaluate things on their relevant associations.
@@rachelhawkins2084 I'm not sorry, but you need to COPE. Trump lost and all of you LOSERS who supported him are SCUM.
@@hulksmash8159 still has fuck all to do with the topic "Burger History" ..and im hope you are happy with your choice and what that choice put the US in to. but i guess yall crazy lunatics think everything is better than mean tweets from the orange man
This is a series I am really looking forward too. Mr. Motz is a great person to have on camera and his passion for burger history is really captivating.
Love the simplicity of this show design, gonna be cooking along for months to come hopefully
They finally cut the fat, and gave us a solo George show. Life is good
Haha, I got that reference!
I've lived in the Deep South for 30 years and have been in 35 US States.
I've never been anywhere that was stranger than Northern Mississippi. Lots of nice people, but lots of really strange folks too.
Even stranger than Florida?
Michael DePew Not possible
Michael, I live in NW Florida which is very Florida and Southern.
And it's nothing compared to where I went in Northern Mississippi.
@@SouthernSkeptic Where did you go in Nortern, MS? Curious because I live here.
@@bobathan4283 Booneville
George and the burger series are my absolute favorite! Thanks for the content
George is the coolest. Glad he got his own show. 🙏
Is being a Burger Scholar a real thing?? asking for a friend..
Burg Souls II: Scholar of the First Burger
Motz made it into a thing lol
a scholar, in essence, is someone who spends their life studying and preserving the history and lore of a subject. Any subject, hell even lawnmowers, can have a scholar. Yes, a burger scholar is a real thing... and its a damn good thing.
Yes, and beer and anything else
Read his books and I'm sure you will agree, this man is indeed a Burger Scholer, and we are lucky to have him
Question: Wouldn’t have buns been vastly different back then? I‘m German. We don’t have soft buns in our bakeries. I suspect the invention of these American soft buns to be a rather recent thing. My guess is, old bakeries in America used to have products that were much more similar to what European bakeries still Make today: Buns, that are only soft on the inside, but crispy on the outside.
George deserves this for sure. I'm so excited for this series.
Motz you the man. So glad to see there going to make a show with you again.
We can't bust heads like we used to. But we have our ways. One trick is to tell stories that don't go anywhere. Like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for m'shoe. So I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt. Which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of slugs on 'em. Gimme five slugs for a quarter, you'd say. Now where was I... oh yeah. The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time. You couldn't get white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones.
More please
As soon as I heard the slug/nickel bit I was sure this would appear here.
0:50 was that a Guga crack? lmao, ever since watching a few of his videos, I always say it now when I cook
i got that too hahahah
LESDOET!
I could watch George talk about burgers all day everyday. His knowledge and passion or burgers is engrossing to watch! Can't wait to see more
I lived in Corinth, Mississippi. And, I was about to blast you, because we use a pork component, now. And, then you addressed it!! I'm a fan for life! Keep it up, bro!
First We Feast, You finally got it right. Be prepared for another ... HIT SHOW.
Oh, by the way, George is a BURGER GOD.
His voice sounds like a burger.
bump
He has become half-man half-burger, which is a dream come true
user name checks out
That made me lol
best comment
Oh George! We love your enthusiam for burgers. Just start a pilot or season going over every burger from every region and decade!
I love George Motz, such a genuine guy.
Love it! I enjoyed every episode motz cameo’d with Alvin cailan. Bring on the onion burgers! 🥰 my fav
This guy is so much better than that Alvin guy.
Looks like Wolverine's down-to-earth cousin who loves burgers.
Perfect show. Short, to the point, funny, and informative.
I love how real this is! Don’t change the format! I love seeing how genuine it is, how real is state of awe over the burger, even the cussing adds the right context! My new most favorite show. I’m making a slug burger when I get home!
Well, use pork and soy flour. He did that part wrong. My grandmother grew up on those, as did my mother. I now live where they are. Soy flour and pork were and are the actual ingredients used then and now. Beef cost too much then (I mean, if you have to extend your meat, you can't afford beef which was not eaten as much as now) and any leftover bread was saved to accompany the next meal (we have gravy that can go with any meal, along with honey and molasses and butter to soften it up). AFAIK, he did all the other burgers right, just got this one so horribly wrong I've have to comment.
I'm sorry, but these need to be longer than 4 minutes. No hate, just love the content!
3:43-4:00 me when I get lied to and i know their lying
George Motz is my idol I'm glad he finally got his own series
Best show on KRplus. This man has passion
Can't imagine how that little room smells after all those burgers
Like grease heaven?
He's like the Keanu Reeves of the culinary world
Whoa.
i love this man. so glad he got his own show now. so stoked for whats coming next!
I’m from northeast Mississippi and still live here in Booneville love those burgers and your channel too keep it comin bubba
Why is the ghost of Bob Ross’ hair hovering over George’s shoulder?
He looks like Johnny Knoxville had a kid with Albert Einstein.
George is the best! Keep the shows coming!
Chaotic cooking show is my new favorite subgenre on KRplus and this is looking to become a prime example
This series and episode is just like his hair. A little sloppy, a little unconventional, but somehow It just works and comes together in the best way possible.
I thought the mustard was cheese in the thumbnail.
Yaaaaay, the internet needs more George.
I grew up in Northeast Mississippi and have eaten many slug burgers in my day. I tell people about them and they just look at me weird. Thank you for doing this! I miss them!
How to Improve Your Life in Less Than 5 Minutes, by George Motz.
Never heard of one.
I bet you can't crush 10 of these in 1 sitting.
I love this. It keeps culture alive, foodways seen, and its usually something we can try
Love George and love the history. More of this would be amazing!
Yay! A burger show without having to watch Alvin kill himself with every bite. Get better Alvin. You are not well.
We have a place here in Ohio that makes “slug burgers” and the also costed a nickel back then. Weird
Okay - I am SO glad I found your videos - not only are you fun to watch, you kick ass in the kitchen. Thank you - I really needed this.
He definitely needed his own show!! Thank you first we feast!!
