Best Burger In Georgia? NFA Burger Copycat!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 июн 2023
- The NFA burger out of Dunwoody, GA has been voted "Best Burger" in Georgia, Atlanta and even Best Burger In America by several publications, such as Food And Wine Magazine. I had to see what all of the chatter was about, so I made my copycat version of this acclaimed burger. And WOW was I impressed! I cooked this burger up on my Wildfire Griddle wildfireoutdoorliving.com/gri... and topped it with my version of NFA Burger's "Sassy Sauce." This burger is a keeper!

I’m honored that you chose to spend time on NFA Burger.
Can’t wait to serve you in person!
WOW! I'm honored you took the time to watch! I'm 100% I got the sauce wrong, but I'm hoping the flavor profile was close. Can't wait to try the real deal! Cheers!
Duke’s Mayo! A GA staple.
@@CurranYeretzian Kewpie > Dukes > All other mayos
@@BallisticBurgers that is awesome.
Please check IG DM
Finally a burger I've had! I live in Atlanta and yes, Dunwoody is in north Atlanta. Billy couldn't be a nicer guy, he comes out to talk to the customers regularly. I would be surprised if the sassy sauce had gochujang in it.
I would be surprised as well. This being said, it gave me the flavors described and is a keeper for me! I'm hoping to try the real-deal someday. Thanks Paul!
American Burgers are the best in the world, like Pizza.
You got my mouth watering again on this one. I love it when you do these copycats.
I have fun doing this burgers Justin. Cheers!
I live in Dunwoody and get NFA burgers all the time! It’s the best burger I’ve ever had you did a great job recreating it.
06:40 “Mount Olive brand olives…” 😢 so many burgers! Keep going Greg 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Brain fart.
Would love to see a 'Rankings Video' of the burgers you have done. Maybe a top 10 list. :) love the videos keep them coming
Great idea!
Best pickles ever! Mt. Olive pickles are made right down the road by me! There jalapeños are awesome as well. NC baby! Great burger as always. Good cook!
Love your work! Everything you post helps me to level up my cooking skills. Thanks for all you do!!
Thank you for watching (and the comment) Kier!
Another fantastic looking burger. Good job and thank you for sharing
Looks good!
For a similar sauce I use mayo, mustard and "adjika". You can find adjika in European specialty groceries, I'm sure you have one in San Diego. It's a spicy, red pepper paste popular in eastern Europe. It comes in various levels of "heat" but I usually get the strong (gustra!) paste and mix it with other ingredients in a sauce.
Another good one is "pinjur" which is a red pepper and eggplant "salsa", for lack of better term. It isn't as spicy hot as adjika. It is great as a substitute in sauces for ketchup or chili sauce.
Thank you, Gary. I'll try and pick some up. Cheers!
Ajika is a dry spice blend at most trader joes and brings similar heat to cayenne.
thanks for your videos! they're the most satisfying ones I've ever seen!
Another great-looking burger, Greg! You're, hands-down, the best burger cook on RUclips and one of the best cooks, period.
Best cooks may be a reach, but I really appreciate your kind words Kenny!
@@BallisticBurgers You are, man! You're one of the first people I started watching on RUclips for grilling about 13 years ago. Now I've got a pretty good skill set myself, and I tell anyone who asks how I learned to grill/smoke that you've taught me a ton! Thanks, man!!!
Great lookin burger Greg. I don't think I've ever seen you make a bad one though, unless it had peanutbutter on it. Your burgers are always on point. When you were putting the pickles on the burger 6:37 you called them olives. You said Mt Olive so many times I can see where you could get tripped up. I love Mt Olive pickles, they're the only ones I buy, not only are they less expensive, they just taste better than the rest. Great video as always Greg. 👍
Mt. Olive pickles are legit. My go to.
Thanks, Ron. That's funny! I didn't even catch that in edit! LOL!
National football association burger. 🍔🍔 I feel it is delicious.
If you're wrong on the sauce, it doesn't need to be right. Sounds fantastic👍😊
That sauce is a keeper Bobbi! Thanks!
Looks great as always Greg. Martins is very close to me and I can often smell the potato rolls baking. Ahhh the things we take for granted like potato rolls!!!
Greg I just moved from Atlanta. Dunwoody is north of the city. NFA is really good. I'm in Palm Coast Florida now and just had 2 really impressive burgers from The Brown Dog and Slapped Kitchen food truck.
You don’t have to worry about a heart attack with this burger, you’ll drown in the juices well before that!! Hell of a cook, I can’t wait to make it.
Greg you rock! I always look forward to your videos!
I appreciate that!
Another awesome looking burger sir. I will keep this on my list of burgers to try.
It's worth trying Conrad!
What a really good looking burger. Cheers, Greg! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️🍔
Cheers, Dwayne!
Hey Greg. I live in Atlanta and I had one this week. Great burger. I think you’re over thinking the sauce though. I’m pretty sure that the base is sriracha mayo.
Wow, Greg’s NFA either! Thank you for sharing yet another mouthwatering burger 🤤
these look super yum!
Thank you Mando! It is the way.
A lot of the time I can skip pickles but Mount Olive is good pickles. I think that they do Hot and spicy pickles now maybe even Hot and spicy bread and butter pickles which would be good. Now that Korean chili paste sounds good I have never tried that before. Deep Fried Habanero chips would be a good touch to finish it off...
Made me hungry again, Greg! You did a great job on that burger.
Thank you, William!
Yes please and thank you! Cheers!
You got it Ron Swanson!
Hey Greg😃The adult version of NFA🤣Dude, that NFA Burger looks really delicious😋Now I'm hungry, thanks a lot😂A "BIG"👍🏻ROCK ON!!!!!!!🤘🏻🤙🏻✌🏻
Thank you for stopping by Mr. Fred! Rock on brother! Going to Aftershock this year?
@@BallisticBurgers Hey Greg😃Actually no☹If I did go it would be the Friday one with Megadeth🤘🏻It's also a hassle to get there as the best way in is to take a shuttle from Cal-Expo to Discovery Park😫The last concert my wife and I attended was Iron Maiden at the Golden One Center right before the pandemic hit, it was a great show😁Have a great Sunday👍🏻ROCK ON!!!!!!!🤘🏻🤙🏻✌🏻
@@MrMegaFredZeppelin My son and I saw Maiden last September. Amazing show! Take care, brother!
musta been awesome..you ate the whole thing..gr8 video as usual..thanks...
Dude! That thing looks good! My Wife and I are sitting here snacking on lunch watching this. We feel disappointed in our lunch now lol. Blessings 🙏. Hope all is well.
Thanks, Mike! Have a great Sunday brother!
Oh man... Now I've gotta get down to Georgia!
You n Me both Dan!
Love from the AK! keep up the great work.
Thanks for watching!
You're really enjoying that burger ....nice one.
You know when it is a good burger cause Greg eats the entire thing on camera while trying to do the outro. Haha!!
Hallo from Switzerland and we love your Burger. We come soon to enjoy it. Danke
Funny that i have been sitting here catching up on your burger shows waiting for it to warm up outside ( in canada ) and you show up with another 😂
I appreciate the views! Hope you get some warmer weather soon. Even here in San Diego it's been a bit chilly!
@@BallisticBurgers Thx it's just below zero with freezing rain i did get out though :)
What a wonderful Burger 👍👍👍
Thank you!
Thanks for your videos
NFA Burger 👍
Wing it Greg! WING IT!
Question, how do you feel about ciabatta? bread as burger buns? It’s what I use for the burgers I sell. The way I toast them is with mayo, the mayo fills the air pockets and so I toast just enough to get crunch but leave mayo in the pockets. Very pleased people love it, hope it serves as an experiment you can try. If ya do let me know HONESTLY. I like honesty
Also, you and others have helped me add over 20 burgers to my menu 😅
love the content bro 🍔
Thank you!
Sup Greg, looks amazing, I've been adding gochujang to everything since before accident, and gochugaru, lots of spicy eggplant since lol. Haven't tried to eat a smashburger yet, can't have pickles which made a burger.. never heard of NFA, sounds like great place, tyvm tc 🍔🥩🍲🍺
Cheers, Ronald!
@@BallisticBurgers 🍺
My Grandparents lived in Dunwoody, this is right around the corner from their house, I've been a couple of times- Its a pretty damn good burger. I still prefer the original H&F Burger, but its hard to argue that the NFA burger isn't on the same level. Not Burger-related, but nearby NFA is an Italian Deli that has the most amazing Subs. But yes Dunwoody is one of the original Atlanta suburbs, just Outside The Perimeter (HWY 285) north of Atlanta/Buckhead.
Thanks for the comment. I'm hoping to visit one of these days.
I totally get why they use Mt Olive. With the sauce and cheese and all, they have a great, strong flavor that'll really shine through. I'm gonna try to make that sauce.
Thanks for stopping in James!
Most guys have a garage full of cars and or bikes. But Greg here has his garage full of BBQs, Smoker's and Cookers.
Have you ever thought of asking Jay Leno around for a Burger and Garage Talk?
As for the (Adults) 'NFA' Burger, I agree! It's definitely a NFAttempt at copying the Original.
That sassy sauce could go almost anywhere.
Nice one Greg 👍🤤😀
Thank you, John. Yes... My backyard has this Sanford and Son vibe with cookers parked here and there... I need a bigger space, or maybe cull the herd? Cheers, man!
@@BallisticBurgers If I were nearby, I'd gladly organise a Kerbside Collection for you 👍😉
Now I have two burgers to try in Atl, Fox Brothers (sort of a burger) and NFA.
Lemme know your thoughts Keith.
Wow Greg! - It must have been really good. - I think this is the first time I have seen you eat the entire burger on camera. - lol
I hope you make it to Georgia to try out the original.
Maybe you should tour with George Motz - The burger scholar. Haha! - Cheers!
Thank you Garry! Yeah, I'd love to try the real-deal, so I'm hoping to make it there soon.
Not fade away!!!!
?
Might try the sauce with Heinz chili sauce or Whataburger spicy ketchup.
That would work!
NFA is perhaps the best burger I've ever had. Spoiled that I live just a couple miles away. Part of the allure is the fact that it's inside the gas station.
Mt. Olive is the best burger pickle, because it's a real pickle. Natural fermentation, not cucumber in vinegar.
Good info! Thanks!
I've bought Mt Olive pickles once... emphasis on once. I think they have a weird aftertaste from something in their pickling spice. I just stick with Clausen or Vlasic these days. Not worth the few pennies you save to go bottom shelf on some things.
Grillo's are superior .. look in by the cheese ans hot dogs at the store
The taste was fine on the pickles I bought, but I did notice that many of the chips were tore up in the jar.
Also, it needs some grilled onions and Bacon...
the description of the sauce almost sounds like yum yum sauce. mayo, ketchup. mirin for the sweet, rice vinegar for the sour, garlic powder, pinch of cayenne, paprika. a splash of water (or shrimp stock if you have it) to thin it out
Sounds good!
Have you done the famous Father's Office Burger? I can't seem to find it, so here's a request - the Burger at Father's Office (said to be the best in the USA by some).
Great request. It’s very good. Served rare. Still very unique even after all the hype.
I have received a request, so thank you for the reminder. Next time I'm up in LA, I'll try this burger out.
NFA also, I believe, fries their tatertots in duck fat.
👍
The fox brothers hamburger is fabulous, also get the Sanchez.
I've had their BBQ, but not the burgers. I love that place!
Whenever you decide to come over and get some, let us know. Would be great to meet you and enjoy some fox brothers bbq!!
Gosh that burger looks tasty. I almost thought the title of the video was NFPA Burger. National Fire Protection Association. :P
LOL! Thanks for watching!
Your burger request email isn't working
So here you go. Had to remove all the links and burger images
Hey brother,
I'm originally from San Clemente but I now live in North Vancouver British Columbia. I miss my California burgers and thanks to you I have got the skills to make my favorite burgers.
There a few I'm really interested in that I really really want to learn how to make. I've done some testing with one of the requests and it came out pretty good. The steamed cheeseburger from Ted's in Connecticut.
I tried making it my own way since they have a special steaming cooker that the burgers are molded into. I just boiled water in a large pot, put a bacon grease screen over top and placed a 3.5 oz patty on top and covered it. Then once almost ready I added a really creamy Wisconsin cheese. I looked all over for it and I'm thinking I got the same brand. They're super secretive about it they even shred the boxes. I made it over 10 years ago and I totally forget where I got the cheese but it's one of the most important for the flavor profile. Not overly salty cheese.
The second burger I would love to see you make is The Hat's double bacon pastrami cheeseburger. I always got it with grilled onions. It's so good. I ended up getting the single patty version and it actually tasted better and a bit more balanced. The Hat world famous pastrami. Brea California they have one in Lake Forest but that's still about 1.5 hours from San Diego.
I have a few other burger places I'll request later. I just have to look them up. One was a guacamole smash burger, and the other was a classic Huntington Beach Costa Mesa burger. I just have to find it first. You'll love them.
Thanks again for all your awesome videos! Keep up the great work. Cheers.
Matt
I'd personally lose the cheese unless it's gorgonzola.
I want to taste beef mayonnaise (good cheese) and pickles.
I've used the gochojang with mayonnaise before and it's delicious.
Your burger looks fantastic.
Thanks for watching Lee!
6:40 you are saying that the OG specifically uses Mt Olive brand olives but you are putting on pickles 😮😮 What beer were you drinking that day?🤭
Yes, I've already responded to this. An obvious mistake on my behalf.
Greg, I have a question, have you ever made a Burger for a video that you just did NOT like ? I'm going try to make that sauce , hopefully I can find gochujang here in North county.
I've made copycats that I don't feel the need to do again, and the fake meat burgers.
If you're not too far away, drop down to Convoy Street in SD. Blocks and blocks of Asian market and restaurants. Legit!
@@BallisticBurgers I live in Ramona, next time I'm in that area I'll pick one, THANKS
Mount Olive brand olives 🤔
I know... Didn't catch that. My brain glitched.
You now and Guga pizz me off saying go ju jang. It’s Jung at the end
It shouldn't piss you off. It's common for people to mispronounce words that are foreign to them.
🍔🍺
I'm only 24 just starting to get into doing grilling like this and makin really good stuff, alot of burgers you've made have inspired me. Keep making banger content man! (btw, i was 11 when your first cooking vid on your other channel dropped!)
Thanks for the support! WOW, 11-years-old! Cheers!
NFA.....Ballistic......not the NFA I was thinking of.
I think you meant Mount Olive brand pickles...
correct
Damn that looks good. Just a good, simple burger.
EDIT - Curious why 2.75 ounces instead of 3 ounces?
Not sure. The owner comment on this video (pinned) good question to ask.
🙂👍🍺
Go ju jung
I think that's the 1st time I've seen you finish the burger , am I right?
I've finished a few, but not many on video. Thanks, Thomas!
NFA needs to be repealed
But the burger can stay!
You keep saying Mount Olive brand olives, but there are no olives.
"This is a tasty burger"
It is!
Need a slice of onion
Make it yours John!
Wait-wait! I've seen you copycatting 80+ year old burgers more accurately due to sufficient amount of sources, but you can't make a good copycat out of a 4 year old (America's best) burger because there's not enough info to be found?
Yes. The burger itself was easy, there just wasn't a whole lot of info on the sauce. This being said, I nailed the description of the sauces flavor profile.
@@BallisticBurgers I get it, it's just strange that it's easier gathering info from an 80 year old sauce -or anything- than a from a 4 year old.
If you don't like nasty pickles... make it without the nasty pickles.
What is the oven by the umbrella?
It's made by Sunterra Outdoors.
This is why i am afraid to try new sauces because i absolutely hate mayonnaise and anything creamy has a mayonnaise base , i love slaw and tuna salad but i make them without mayonnaise or sometimes witth slaw ill use barbecue sauce.
Give it a try. This doesn't have that mayo taste.
@@BallisticBurgers all your burgers look great , that's for sure 👌 😋.
