Burger YouTubers
The channels that taught the internet how to make a burger, and every burger they have filmed: dry-aged experiments, cartoon burgers cooked for real, chain copycats and hundred-year-old recipes. Each video is tied to the chain burger it copies and to the recipe written from it. Search by creator or by burger: type “big mac” and see everyone who has made one.
