Okay now I need a video of you picking a bottle of barbecue sauce off the shelf and making it perfectly solely from the ingredients list. I need that now. Just because you said having the ingredients listed is equal to the recipe. I'm going to need you to do that for me now.
The Cooper’s “secret” bbq sauce made my uncle laugh. For reference, I live in North Texas and my uncle, who knows every bbq joint in the area and lives about 20 minutes from there, said it’s the weakest sauce he’s ever tasted. The restaurant is decent, but it tastes pretty similar to something like a chain restaurant (which isn’t high praise in a state known for bbq). And apparently the whole thing was a sham to get more business and the sauce had been sold for years.
"Here at Luigi's authentic Italian restaurant in the heart of Venice, we would be devastated if anyone took our secret pasta sauce recipe!" >Is literally Ragu with Basil added in
I mean the entire concept of a "secret sauce" is already just commercial bullshit. It'll just be a basic staple sauce and maybe someone added some garlic granules or msg; that's about fuckin it. All of it just so you can advertise and have people enjoy the placebo of a miracle condiment. The only places that can even "have" special ingredients are restaurants with highly processed sauces or very specific ingredients. Like amylase in burger buns, xanthan gum in frappucinos etc. That stuff's been tested in labs and it's neither intuitive nor a normal kitchen staple in your home kitchen.
I used to work as a technician at a bowling alley & I can tell you with 100% certainty that that bowling on a skate board is 100% faked... Dude would be dead if the machinery wasn't isolated.
Also, as someone who's ever been in a bowling alley, I can say with nearly 100% authority that there would be an off-duty cop there, arresting those dudes before half that crap happened.
@@danielgehring7437i have never seen an off duty police officer at a bowling alley. I saw this as a former juvenile delinquent who spent an inordinate amount of time smoking joints in a bowling alley parking lot hahaha
My favorite part is when the bowling alley bartender walks in and delivers her line with such a talented mix of surprise, anger, fear, snd betrayal and does so perfectly into the mic they had to fit her with in order to even catch that artistic masterpiece
"Another restaurant is stealing our barbecue sauce recipe, and I'm mad as hell about it!" -how to tell someone you're from Texas without actually saying you're from Texas
You need to watch the one where the employee takes live lobsters from a tank and tries to release them into the ocean. The host chases him yelling " bring back those lobsters!!"
Coopers BBQ “secret” sauce ingredients: Water, Vinegar, Ketchup, Shortening, Spices, Louisiana Hot Sauce Curtesy of a 1.5 star review of the sauce on a a website called The Meatwave.
Wait until you find out that Terry was fired and the only reason the restaurant is still open is because Michael won big from the law suit because of the fact he actually owned the business and the old Uncle has not owned it for decades.
The story seemed cooked from the get go anyways, lmao. No way that if Michael was the owner, he wouldn't have also known that 30 cameras were placed around the restaurant and not had a say in the "new" hires.
The story was completely fake. Food Network tried to sell the fake story to multiple barbecue joints in that town. Also, Terry had been selling his sauce for years by the time this show came on.
@@bk6555 one thing everyone conveniently overlooks with these lazy fake shows is the quality of the "hidden cameras". We're somehow getting 4k footage and crisp, flawless audio from a series of tiny hidden cameras around the room? No, these people are mic'd up and the 'hidden' cameras are large, professional equipment that take time to set up and operate correctly.
Never been to Cooper,s, they got one in New Braunfels.Goid BBQ doesn't need sauce.The secret recipe isn't that secret, a lot of sauces use the same recipe.
Whoever writes the lines for these “reality shows” eats crayons for breakfast. I mean, the show is clearly 200% fake & quite obvious these people have read scripts. I am still flabbergasted when I meet people who think these kinds of shows are “real”. Especially when there are like 10 or 12 cameras right in plain view of everyone. Keep up the good work.
I cannot get over your sense of humor i get So happy when you post , you have helped distract me when I was super sick for thr first 4 months of my pregnancy.
Part of the intro for Mystery Diners live rent free in my head. Like it’s been in there for almost 10 years 💀 I used to watch this show all the time with my mum so we could point out how stupid it was. Watching these shows with zero expectations makes them so much funnier.
So fun fact, when I saw this video dropped I immediately told my boyfriend about it because he loves mystery diners. And then when we got to the reddit part at 16:35 he started absolutely dying laughing. Turns out the comment that says you shut the f* up was literally him on an old reddit account that is now banned. I made him log in to prove it because I didn't believe him (the account is banned so he can't post with it but I could still see the surrenderthenight username). So yeah, it wasn't Charles Stiles. It was my boyfriend.
@@TalkBack17 Correct. He felt he needed to defend Mystery Diners honor from the people who were calling it fake and lame (he was mostly just trying to be funny, he knows it is over the top but he genuinely enjoys it)
A restaurant I ate at twice (Big Earl's in Cave Creek, AZ) was featured on this show. It was a perfectly fine (and locally popular) restaurant that had no issues whatsoever. The owner later admitted to doing it for publicity, which pissed off all the regulars. Understandably so. I will probably never go there again.
I did armed security at a Orlando FL a few years ago; Robert Irvine, 🇬🇧 Restaurant Impossible. Some sections were fake but the 🍕 place was given a full remodel. Still in business ... 2024...
As one of the few people that know the secret sauce for Cooper's BBQ - it makes me sick to see people not care for the passion and legitimacy of the business and the secret sauce that gets us out of bed every day!
CHRIS as a north carolinian whose family's bbq restaurant celebrating our 75th anniversary and is in the NC BBQ hall of fame..... all bbq sauce does NOT TASTE THE SAME
In most cases, I would take the phrase, “he’s fallen off his horse a few too many times,” as a colloquialism but, in this case, I wouldn’t be surprised if it were literal.
Assuming this is the same Corbin Bowl that is in LA, it legit hasn't changed its decor since I went when I was in preschool. Also, even when I went in high school/undergrad (around when this was filmed), the issue was more people drinking in parking lot rather than actual issues inside the alley.
Bro, this isn't even the stupidest thing that they try to convince you was real. in one episode, they have a reveal that one of the staff at a seafood restaurant is an undercover "lobster activist" who was stealing the lobsters and releasing them in the ocean.
Have you watched Gordon Ramsays "24 hours to hell and back" ? It's this same genre of show, combined with Gordon dressing up in insane disguises in every episode.
Secret Recipes are such a fake thing and not really legal. Someone comes in with sever allergies, and is like, "Hey I just ate something and might be having an allergic reaction, can I see what's in your sauce?" The owners be like, "Nope ma'am sorry its a secret recipe, we can't show you!"
Y'know, I'm kinda surprised SpongeBob hasn't made an episode where someone is revealed to be allergic to something in the Krabby Patty secret formula before. It HAS to have happened once, but we got that fakeout with the health inspector, though
@@SecretMagician tbh an episode where Plankton, disguised as someone else, pretends to have an allergic reaction in order to try and see the formula would be a good plot.
Just someone being there trying to buy the bbq sauce should have tipped the “owner” kid off. Cooper’s bbq sauce sucks. It’s so thin, like water. They just dunk your meat in it and barely any stays on the meat. No one in their right mind would be there trying to buy it off him.
There's no way that the head chef is the only one in the kitchen who'd know the sauce recipe. Head Chefs usually don't do prep work, like making sauce, that's a prep cook's job.
Mannnnn I been straight addicted to your content really gets me through the days lmao I hope you’re doing well my boi you’re genuinely one of my favorites of all time ATP and you deserve that spot
This was one of my guilty pleasure shows it was so bonkers I didn’t even care if it was fake 😂 having that been said, I live in Texas and frequent a handful of bbq places and even then I couldn’t be able to tell you whose where a sauce came from
I think Appalachian Outlaws would be an interesting reality show to cover. The show seemed to be going good until the main guy decided to start selling the ginseng to the Chinese mafia. All of the sudden they had mysterious Chinese dudes from NYC showing up demanding money and product. The show didn't last too long after that stuff started happening.
Why doesn't the owner just... Ban the kids who are disrupting business and call the cops if they don't leave? Fuck, even McDonald's will do that. I'm fairly certain a privately owned bowling alley is allowed to do that.
Im sorry I cant stand it when restraurants say world famous fries. You can do at home. Step 1 bag of fries step 2 deep fry step 3 eat, no real secret to tossing potato into a deep fryerr
1:58 Chris, I absolutely love you’re channel because it truly keeps me out of the abyss (crushing depression), but I’m giving this time stamp because listening to the guys on the show talk about BBQ sauce recipes being stolen is truly stupid. I need to smoke just a little more before I can prepare myself for this show I have never heard. I am still gonna watch the entire, but I might mentally be suffering to do so. Love your channel dude!
My secret BBQ Sauce recipe is Bull's Eye Bold with a pinch of salt. You steal it, I will send one of my staff to get a sample so I can prove it. Y'All.
I don't think the roof comment wasn't meant to mean the buildings roof but roof of the car. What would of been a great video with the bowling ball would be like the countless rock throwing videos where the rock bounces back at the thrower or if the throw missed the target and knocked out an accomplice.
The ONE thing I always laughed about working at my kitchen is when someone brings up our "special" recipe. I'm like bro, I wrote the recipe... I'll just tell you what it is so you can make it for someone special too!
13:55 HAHAHA THE GUY HOLDING THE LONGBOARD BY THE TRUCKS HAHAHAH To make it worse, I don't think any of them can skateboard LMAO, I think they are trying to look skater punks, but they have like a literal 35 year old and they all wearing new sweaters, all clean, not worn in. Crazy to play like this isn't faked hahaha
You mean skateboard?? Mall grabbing longboards is common when indoors. We don't want to be rude and accidentally hit someone or something with a 46" board when walking around
Apparently this person thinks skateboards and longboards are the same thing. As someone who also used to skate all day, that's news to me. 😂@@Jane-oz7pp
I make my own BBQ sauce. It's pretty easy. I don't really see how someone's BBQ sauce could be so special that nobody could independently replicate it. Also: "there's rowdy people we don't want here" "should we just call the police and have them trespassed?" "No we a whole reality TV production"
FYI, having worked in a bowling alley in the back, losing your head is a very real fear in some of those machines. Where I worked they didn't have very quick moving parts, but they also didn't have a resistance switch or anything to make it stop when something was in the way, so it would have been more grape press than guillotine though.
"My nephew was selling my secret bbq recipe under my nose, so i fired him. . . anyway I did start selling my bbq recipe, was actually a good idea." . . . maybe this is why he was backstabbing you, or possibly front-stabbing you if he actually just owns the restaurant
God, this just brought back memories of not being able to sleep and basically watching Mystery Diners at 3 in the morning because there was bugger all else on at the time. This makes me want to see more Mystery Diners get covered.
The Bellagio joke is severely under-appreciated. Also, I love how the producers are so out of touch that they thought kids were still ripping off Jackass in 2015
RE: French Fries. Five Guys talks about their "world famous" and "award winning" fries, and there's a damn good reason for that. So I have to take issue with your conclusion.
I have too many comments to even comment. I'm just going to comment to show support. 👍 This was a fantastic video with genius commentary. Keep 'em coming, please! Im constantly in hospital and I laughed really hard on the dry humor and sarcasm in this; I needed it. 🖤
Everyone talks about Bar Rescue and Kitchen Nightmares, meanwhile I'm over here, on my knees, begging for a crumb of Mystery Diners content. Bless u Chris lol
I like how the magic Taylor is upset that she has a broken window like she didn't think about the situation with the video before that, I guess she was just hoping to make the place popular enough to get enough money to replace her window, even though I don't know why she cared in the first. Place that the company made more money. Because her paycheck is gonna stay the same. Probably minimum wage. Unless she got tips, but she probably did.She would probably make more tip Unless you got tips, but she probably did. She would probably make more tips.
What was in the weirdly wrapped blue box that bbq guy have the mystery dinner dude? There's no way he wrapped it up like that. I'm way too invested in it
I love how this video reawakened the memories that Ralphthemoviemaker gave us of this tv show in the comments. His mystery diners video has to be one of my favorites. Nice to see episodes that he didn't cover in full, as I do remember the uncle saying "you're fired" showing up briefly in his video in a clip montage, it wasn't covered tho. I'd imagine the quotes would double if you cover the episodes that feature the Cheesey's challenge or the iraqi food cart lol
omg this bought back a memory. i thought that this show truly never existed and i was crazy. but i remember him inviting celebrity chefs on the show like Guy Feri.
Hi Chris, This was first video I watched on your channel and I've been having a blast binge watching your other uploads. Can I please suggest Gordon ramsay Hotel Hell Juniper Hill episode would be good to start. Your content is awesome and you're hilarious. Thank you.
You should do MTV’s Parental Control. It was hilarious back in the day watching the parents and their kids bf/gf who they hated sit in a room together watching the kid go on dates.

To make it worse, I don't think any of them can skateboard LMAO, I think they are trying to look skater punks, but they have like a literal 35 year old and they all wearing new sweaters, all clean, not worn in. Crazy to play like this isn't faked hahaha
Classic mall grab
You mean skateboard?? Mall grabbing longboards is common when indoors. We don't want to be rude and accidentally hit someone or something with a 46" board when walking around
as someone who used to skate all the damn time: what in the sad gatekeeping poser nonsense is this comment about?
Are you sure you arent just jealous you dont dress like that and skate?
Because cool fact, you can just do that.
Apparently this person thinks skateboards and longboards are the same thing.
As someone who also used to skate all day, that's news to me. 😂@@Jane-oz7pp
Your content has gotten DRAMATICALLY better over the years. I really enjoy watching your videos! ❤
I make my own BBQ sauce. It's pretty easy. I don't really see how someone's BBQ sauce could be so special that nobody could independently replicate it.
Also: "there's rowdy people we don't want here" "should we just call the police and have them trespassed?" "No we a whole reality TV production"
FYI, having worked in a bowling alley in the back, losing your head is a very real fear in some of those machines. Where I worked they didn't have very quick moving parts, but they also didn't have a resistance switch or anything to make it stop when something was in the way, so it would have been more grape press than guillotine though.
Aight but as wacky as this show may be elementary school me sucked this shit up like a fuckin hoover when I was home sick from school
"My nephew was selling my secret bbq recipe under my nose, so i fired him. . . anyway I did start selling my bbq recipe, was actually a good idea."
. . . maybe this is why he was backstabbing you, or possibly front-stabbing you if he actually just owns the restaurant
Another Chris James video means another great night :)
Facts 😊
God, this just brought back memories of not being able to sleep and basically watching Mystery Diners at 3 in the morning because there was bugger all else on at the time. This makes me want to see more Mystery Diners get covered.
After a 10 hour shift this is the best thing I could of seen all day thank you 😂❤
The Bellagio joke is severely under-appreciated.
Also, I love how the producers are so out of touch that they thought kids were still ripping off Jackass in 2015
best bowling content on youtube!
Babe don’t make dinner tonight cuz Chris James absolutely COOKED in this video
You should definitely do a video on the murder mystery train episode.
Please make more videos! You’re one of the funniest RUclips creators. I always look forward to your hilarious comments.
RE: French Fries. Five Guys talks about their "world famous" and "award winning" fries, and there's a damn good reason for that. So I have to take issue with your conclusion.
They're also famous cause the size is "idgaf just dump a shitload in a bag" lol
I have too many comments to even comment. I'm just going to comment to show support. 👍
This was a fantastic video with genius commentary. Keep 'em coming, please! Im constantly in hospital and I laughed really hard on the dry humor and sarcasm in this; I needed it. 🖤
That ungrateful woman did not deserve that early 90s Buick Century.
Everyone talks about Bar Rescue and Kitchen Nightmares, meanwhile I'm over here, on my knees, begging for a crumb of Mystery Diners content. Bless u Chris lol
I like how the magic Taylor is upset that she has a broken window like she didn't think about the situation with the video before that, I guess she was just hoping to make the place popular enough to get enough money to replace her window, even though I don't know why she cared in the first. Place that the company made more money. Because her paycheck is gonna stay the same. Probably minimum wage. Unless she got tips, but she probably did.She would probably make more tip Unless you got tips, but she probably did. She would probably make more tips.
What was in the weirdly wrapped blue box that bbq guy have the mystery dinner dude? There's no way he wrapped it up like that. I'm way too invested in it
great timing chris james my two friends are watching this with me
I love how this video reawakened the memories that Ralphthemoviemaker gave us of this tv show in the comments. His mystery diners video has to be one of my favorites. Nice to see episodes that he didn't cover in full, as I do remember the uncle saying "you're fired" showing up briefly in his video in a clip montage, it wasn't covered tho. I'd imagine the quotes would double if you cover the episodes that feature the Cheesey's challenge or the iraqi food cart lol
what if the secret ingredient is someone else’s sauce?😱 or store-bought one?😱
😂🤣
Your breakdowns crack me up, man. Keep up the great work!
This is like the opposite of Undercover Boss.
omg this bought back a memory. i thought that this show truly never existed and i was crazy. but i remember him inviting celebrity chefs on the show like Guy Feri.
CHRIS JAMES !! 🖤🖤🖤
Hi Chris, This was first video I watched on your channel and I've been having a blast binge watching your other uploads.
Can I please suggest Gordon ramsay Hotel Hell Juniper Hill episode would be good to start. Your content is awesome and you're hilarious. Thank you.
4:28 as someone that frequents Coopers in Katy TX thats the most accurate thing 😂 the bbq is great but the sauce sucks.
You should do MTV’s Parental Control. It was hilarious back in the day watching the parents and their kids bf/gf who they hated sit in a room together watching the kid go on dates.
WORLD'S STRICTEST PARENTS
12:39 “You upload it, you unload it. I’m cuttin it down.” -Bob “the Internet Lumberjack” Chandler
This looks so scripted
Your content is the best. Im stoked every time I get a notification.
fun fact in most states its illegal to run a true background check without consent or unless your a sworn cop
I’ve worked in a BBQ spot for 7 years last week actually, and the war between recipes is real. Even in Indiana.
I live down the street from coopers bbq, it’s not that good
"Let's keep the good times rollin"
*my thoughts every time Chris posts a new video
