it's incredible how every step is so well thought out to be the most efficient. Specialized tools, layouts etc. I mean they even spaced the bacon out on the paper so you don't have to pull it apart! Every second counts. And it ensures consistency, like with the bacon, instead of pulling it apart and changing the bacon size or ripping it in half. The wide spatula to take out the eggs all at once.

That’s why a McDonald’s franchise is a minimum $1,000,000 investment. You get what you pay for. I hear subways are the cheapest, less complicated stuff. Either way, it’s a hard, repetitive job, but being an owner seems okay…. But not for me. Too much constant beeping, grease, unhealthy and bland food. Clientele is typically not my type of people
@@HotSauceStain I just got off working burger king for two years and it's an incredibly less efficient work environment in a dozen small ways. Bun toaster is less expeditious, ketchup and mustard are in bottles instead of that squeezer our friend in the video has, etc. It all adds up to a massive difference. In general fast food is way more stressful than these videos can encapsulate, especially making the food and taking orders. Drive thru in particular is bad for order taking as people there are often less patient than inside orders.
I'll be honest - I went into this video expecting to see full justification for why I don't eat at McDonald's. Instead, I see a insanely clean kitchen run incredibly efficiently. It's not gonna make me rush out and buy a BigMac or anything right now, but this helps me appreciate what you fast food workers have to do every day. I mean, I was never (and will never be) one of those people who thinks working fast food is any more or less important than anything else, but getting this first-hand look at what goes on in one of those kitchens is an interesting thing. Great video.
The back of the establishment is indeed spotless. But the "food" they serve is death, as well as the chemically laden drinks they offer. Watch Food, Inc to get a better idea of who's really supplying our food, what's actually in it, and who's in charge of the agencies that allow those suppliers to poison America. You'll be looking for clean land to hunt and fish on to butcher your own food for your family. Corporate fast food is extremely unhealthy!
My thoughts exactly… I haven’t eaten McDonald’s in over 20 years but I’ve always been fascinated with seeing how things work. I like watching processes that are efficient like this.👍🏾
Lots of respect for your hard work and dedication to your job. It is unfortunate that, as customers, we always complain and take the employees for granted. We truly don’t appreciate how much work that goes into preparing each and every meal. Thank you for showing us a little glimpse of a day at your job. Thank you and all the food service workers for everything you do! 👍
Because not every fast food place runs like what is shown here. A lot of them have young kids who simply don't give a shit about what they're doing or what we order and are only there to collect a check to pay their cell phone bill or support their weed habit. This McDonald's is a rare occurrence.
Honestly (pleasantly) surprised at the effort to ensure no cross contamination. Few commercial kitchens could ever hope to maintain this level of clean. Love the videos!
@@gohdundee I was a manager for a McDonald’s for years believe me a huge majority of them are very clean. Corporate conducts audits to make sure we are.
Wowwww! Ummm..just wow. In remember working so hard at McDonald’s at the age of 16, 1975-1976. I was able to run the grill, and every single foe other position! I worked there over 2 years. I loved working there, making $2.32 an hour yall! But I loved the job. I learned all positions, I worked for Ray Kroc! If you don’t know who his is…well let me just say, she is the founder!!! Thank him for those fries! I’m very proud to say that! Custom service was everything then…not so much now. All of that hard work pays off. ❤️❤️❤️
My family had a few McDonalds in the late 80's & early 90's. Nothing like this, love watching what they changed over the years. I always wanted to see how they planned all the new equipment and designing it.
I worked at McDonalds 2005-2006 and I'll say it was nothing like it is now. I applaud you for how well you do your work. Back in the day, it was pure hell. Keep up the good work!
I worked at McDs from 1990 to 1993. I did not find it bad at all. The worst thing to deal with was managers, swing and salaried that did not care about their employees and the sending home people before their 8 hours were up, weird scheduling, etc. The work itself was not hard at all. The methods shown here are more geared toward controlling food costs at the expense of speed.
I work at McDonald's and watching this gives me nostalgia whenever I'm not working. Fast food or not, I enjoy cooking and giving people food - feels like I make other people's days.
I don't work fast food (I work retail) but I absolutely love when I can make peoples day!! I love when I know how to help somebody find exactly what they're looking for, not in a corporate way but in a special person-to-person way
Hey man this might sound silly but watching your POVs inspires me to work faster in the kitchen and even though I don't have a career in cooking I've found increased enjoyment in little things as simple as plating something neatly the way you place buns and assemble consistently on the wrapping papers so I just wanted to pop by and say thank you, congrats on the recent spike in subs, and I hope you keep the content coming!
This is a lot more interesting than I first thought. I’ve only ever seen the inner workings of McDonalds through the drive-thru or standing waiting for my food in the restaurant. This is a great perspective into what a person actually does in their job
man its crazy to see how little you guys cook per batch for breakfast. i work sat and sun breakfast currently, and we run through 4 folded eggs in like 3 minutes max, if not all in one order. we usually do 4 trays of 8 round, 3 trays of 12 folded, 2 trays of 4 scramble, and 3 trays of 16 sausage. timers rarely go off even when we have this much prep, and it lasts pretty much the entire breakfast shift.
@@calum5975 I worked in McDonald's for over 30 years in some of the busiest store's in Manhattan they are video taping at a slow peak time so they can demonstrate the procedure's
@@victorserrano8239 no one said anything like that, they asked a question, as they are someonr who works in a similar establishment who explain the procedure they do differently at his place. You just wanted to take a shot at someone
Some of the beeps are the grills, some are the fryers, some are the ovens, some are the timers on the trays. Lots of sounds going on back there. Takes me back to being 19 again.
Respect the hard work you put in man. Society likes to call this unskilled labor, but this takes a lot of skill to do well in my opinion. We need to start treating all work as valuable.
I worked at McDonald’s from 86-89. Pre clamshell. A regular burger cooked for 2-1/2 minutes. The 1/4 pounder was 5:06. The regular burger we put the onions on while they were still on the grill. Nuggets and McRib just came out. We had the McDLT. The clam shell came out maybe in 88. Oh we had a shrimp salad too. We had the bin we put the sandwiches in. They were good for 10 minutes then had to toss them. No warmers other than for the nuggets. Brought back some memories. Nice video.
I always used to think mc donalds must be dirty/messy given how fast the workers are and how cheap and fast the food comes out, but honestly you keep the cleanest most organised kitchens 👍
It depends on the location and country. Most filthiest McDonald's i have ever seen is in India. Let's just say there was a live Cow inside the restaurant and the staff does absolutely nothing.
@@telracsazyl1243 mc donalds is very cheap for what you get when you consider kfc and burger King their closest competitors are nearly double the price
I love your work ethic. Like you I worked since I was ten in one way or another. I went to university when I was sixteen and I worked part-time at McDonald's here in New Zealand. I was mostly on fries, service or cleaning the restaurant so I'm really enjoying watching your videos as you show parts of the kitchen I didn't work in. I can tell that you are not afraid of hard work and are constantly moving quickly and cleaning down the grill etc in between the busy times. Your parents must be so proud of you. Xx
One of the cleanest McDonald's I've seen in a minute. That's hard, thankless work that you're doing, and I for one appreciate it! Stay strong out there retail and food industry working fam! 💪
You always hear about how Efficiently McDonalds are run, but until you actually see just how efficient it is, it is mind boggling. I worked in the service industry for a while when I was in High School. I absolutely loved it. I never knew watching someone do daily tasks at their job would be so entertaining. Keep up the good work. I don’t personally eat McDonalds but wow that kitchen is spotless.
I recently quit my job at McDonald’s and this video puts into perspective how wrong we did things. The tools we didn’t have and the manager that we deserved.
Stephen is the gold standard... I just came from McDonald's for breakfast. Asked for the "2 sausage egg and cheese McMuffins for $5" deal. Lady says "1 Sausage egg and cheese McMuffin, please pull up to the 2nd window". Me: "No, TWO sausage egg and cheese McMuffins". McMuffins come out, 1 is fine, the other is MASSACRED. Idk how they managed to fuck up the muffin as badly as they did, but it makes me think it was on purpose.
The longer videos really rock. As a owner of a food trailer that we just do big events I can really see how McDonald's has everything in place and everything very thought out for placement and people seemingly doing nothing and all of a sudden their job produces product needed to finish the meals! Great job and really like the behind the scenes of the fast food operation that you are apart of and todo so many things and not move more than three feet is a big for thought for who ever layed out the kitchen!!!!!!!
I worked at McDonald's in the 90s my 1st job now I'm watching it on youtube.. Full circle lol... it was a fun job!! Thanks for sharing it kinda cool seeing how the hardware has changed!!
Just saying, as a kitchen worker from france putting gloves to put the fried chickens inside the oil to avoid touching the chickens it's "too much" since oil is legit frying every bacteria ^^ but great vid :)
its more so they dont cross contaminate their hands when they touch other stuff like sausages or patties or eggs, means they dont gotta wash their hands after every thing they drop
@@Juanhernandez-is3zt in my mcdonald in france we actualy wash our hands every 30 mins in rush, and if you touch your skin by skin i mean your face, grab something on the floor or even touch a trashcan you need to wash your hands that's why im saying that ^^' i think it's better for the environement to wash your hands than using plastics no ? (I think not sarcasm)
@@Juanhernandez-is3zt you realise how wasteful that is right... i dont understand the need to glove up for every little thing when there is access to water and dispensable soap within arms reach
Dude doubled his subs over the past week and he is giving the people what they want! Which is basically, "enough with the tiktok crap. I'm here to stay and watch."
One thing that stands out to me about your videos is how quiet everything is. When I was running a kitchen a few years ago it was constant yelling, communication and people alerting everyone. Mind you we have myself and two other cooks having to communicate with 2 cashiers so we where always throwing orders to each other and all that, but this is almost deathly silent in comparison.
That's pretty common in morning business, I've never worked McDs, but have worked a few kitchens. Its always quiet in the morning due to less volume & less people. In the mornings when I was working I'd be the only one cooking. Wouldn't get a hand till a few hours later if it was a weekend. But dinner service is entirely different. Many more cooks, demand, and jobs being done. People inquiring how long till this or that is ready, or needing this or that. Be willing to bet that it gets fun later at night during dinner rush.
Oh yes oh yes! Great video once again my good friend!! I’ve been eating mcd’s almost everyday the past few weeks all because of your videos! I can’t get enough of this jawn! I hope everyone is having a great week! Greetings from lovely NJ! - Gary.
I never imagined watching something like this but it's oddly satisfying. You're really good at what you do man, honestly. I worked line for a few years at a Quakers Steak and Lube and I can tell you now some of the people I met never valued a steady job the same way you seem to. You'd be a pleasure to work a line with if I ever did again. It is a rough gig, one positive person can change the whole atmosphere at a job like that tho.
Your channel is gonna blow up. Channels that just post them working in like fast food jobs are so underrated and I think more people than you would think like to watch them as well.
In the covid peaks of 2020 I worked at mcdonalds for 7 month and mostly on grills you brought back my amazing memories. That was the greatest work space i ever worked at :) I remember when i was leaving there i was all in tear and sadness….
u should ask corporate to make machines that have noises like crickets, wolf howl, birds chirping, and other woodland noises instead of beeps kinda like how amazon changed the backup noise on their trucks from a beep to something gentler
Man left McDonald's a few years ago but damn does this bring back memories. Btw i don't know if the grill at your store is the same as mine but ours you could press the Right arrow to cycle backwards on the cook time selector thing at 4:00
dont know why but i'm very impressed with how organized everything is then again that's always been mcdonalds even from the beginning was the organization and efficiency
i loved working the grill, sadly i never got to work breakfast grill cuz I was the afternoon shift. But there's something really satisfying about working the grill that I can't explain
well done ..a tad bit better than i had it back in the mid 80's before the clamshells ...and all the eggs were still in the shell ..bacon had a slip sheet over each piece ..the canadian bacon cooked well ...i looked for years to buy an old egg mc muffin cooker with the lid and rings ..no luck ..cooked 6 at a time added water and butter to the rings cooked so well ..kool videos ..it gives people who are curious what the job is and what to expect if you take the position :)
The amount of meat you put in your trays compared to the one I work at is interesting. Usually we have 16 sausage in one tray, 4 crispy in one tray and a whole pack of folded egg in one tray
This looks like a new McDonald’s??? (Maybe it’s just cleaner 💀) but the one I work at has been around for a really long time and some of the workers have been there since I was in elementary. I think it could be that over the years they find that having certain ways just makes it easier.
Pro tip on using the scrap blade. Scape forward and lift up then repeat and don’t scrape backwards because it will dull the blade faster. Could save you money.
Was hoping to see how you make the round eggs. Are they fresh cracked? I had an egg McMuffin this morning and the egg had some shell in it all it got me curious!
I feel like tongs would be so much better to prevent waste but maybe not sterile/clean enough over time. I do appreciate the attention to sanitation for sure!!
Great video. Thanks. This is the reason I like McDonalds...it's good food, is consistent from place to place, but most importantly I can trust it to be prepared safely and properly.
neat to see what happens behind the scene, folded egg surprised me, i thought they would have been liquid eggs cooked onsite, They are surprisingly good for coming precooked from a bag. How do i get a bag of sausage patties🤔SEC Biscuits
@@jonathanruolo3940 when i started in 98 we did the eggs with liquid, it seemed like other stores where having trouble keeping up with the demand for the eggs so they went to already cooked ones that where then steamed on the grill, also at one time mcds had round eggs also done that way and after i stopped doing breakfast they changed back to cracking eggs and putting them in a ring to cook
Literally after watching your videos, I had to treat myself with a McDonald's Double Cheeseburger yesterday for this lmao. As a psychology major studying Industrial/Organizational Psychology, it interests me to see how you work and how you communicate with the other employees in your workplace. Keep it up, dude. I'm planning to work as a Human Resource Manager in the future by the way after I graduate.
I work in finance now, I got a job in finance during my last year of college and really loved it. I still love psychology but I think I will stick with finance for now!
@@Stardew_0 glad you're doing well, finance ain't my forte at all but helping people find jobs that best suit them will do. I'm planning to become an HR Manager and a clinical psychologist part-time in the future. Also currently doing research while I'm learning.
This actually looks low-key fun. Wouldnt want to do it every day cuz of all the grease, but if i could like, be an uber mcdonalds worker where i sign up for a day just to try it out, i could do it recreationally and it would probably be a blast
Long-form vids are the way to go my dude! 20+ min lunch rush video would be sick.

This is a lot more interesting than I first thought. I’ve only ever seen the inner workings of McDonalds through the drive-thru or standing waiting for my food in the restaurant. This is a great perspective into what a person actually does in their job
man its crazy to see how little you guys cook per batch for breakfast. i work sat and sun breakfast currently, and we run through 4 folded eggs in like 3 minutes max, if not all in one order. we usually do 4 trays of 8 round, 3 trays of 12 folded, 2 trays of 4 scramble, and 3 trays of 16 sausage. timers rarely go off even when we have this much prep, and it lasts pretty much the entire breakfast shift.
Same here, i'm amazed how relaxed this restaurant is.
Fr the Hardee's I work at I cook 12 eggs at a time and 24 sausages at a time and that runs out really fast
@@calum5975 I worked in McDonald's for over 30 years in some of the busiest store's in Manhattan they are video taping at a slow peak time so they can demonstrate the procedure's
You act like you make the sausage and eggs from scratch lmao you Mikey d ppl make me laugh lol
@@victorserrano8239 no one said anything like that, they asked a question, as they are someonr who works in a similar establishment who explain the procedure they do differently at his place. You just wanted to take a shot at someone
A video explaining all of the alarms and beeps you hear in the restaurant would be super interesting
Llega un momento que te ponen loco de todos los sonidos q suena pero una vez que los conoces ya sabes q es cada cosa
Quick disclaimer, it's really not that interesting
Some of the beeps are the grills, some are the fryers, some are the ovens, some are the timers on the trays. Lots of sounds going on back there. Takes me back to being 19 again.
I can recognize what each of those beeps go to specifically, just from the tone. Luckily I don't hear the beeps in my dreams!
All the alarms and beeps are fryers , ovens, microwaves , and timers to tell you what is done in which machine.
Respect the hard work you put in man. Society likes to call this unskilled labor, but this takes a lot of skill to do well in my opinion. We need to start treating all work as valuable.
I worked at McDonald’s from 86-89. Pre clamshell. A regular burger cooked for 2-1/2 minutes. The 1/4 pounder was 5:06. The regular burger we put the onions on while they were still on the grill. Nuggets and McRib just came out. We had the McDLT. The clam shell came out maybe in 88. Oh we had a shrimp salad too. We had the bin we put the sandwiches in. They were good for 10 minutes then had to toss them. No warmers other than for the nuggets. Brought back some memories. Nice video.
We had real eggs too.
@@1rmriderstill use “real eggs” for some of it, ex. liquid eggs to make scrambled eggs and eggs from a carton for round eggs
I dont know why but I find these videos fascinating to watch. McDonalds has this down to a science.
This is unreasonably enjoyable to watch, please keep posting these! Nug special perhaps?
I always used to think mc donalds must be dirty/messy given how fast the workers are and how cheap and fast the food comes out, but honestly you keep the cleanest most organised kitchens 👍
Well at his location. Other locations are different
Cheap?
It depends on the location and country. Most filthiest McDonald's i have ever seen is in India. Let's just say there was a live Cow inside the restaurant and the staff does absolutely nothing.
@@telracsazyl1243 mc donalds is very cheap for what you get when you consider kfc and burger King their closest competitors are nearly double the price
@@ShadowMoon878 omg that's crazy 😂😂😂
I love your work ethic. Like you I worked since I was ten in one way or another. I went to university when I was sixteen and I worked part-time at McDonald's here in New Zealand. I was mostly on fries, service or cleaning the restaurant so I'm really enjoying watching your videos as you show parts of the kitchen I didn't work in. I can tell that you are not afraid of hard work and are constantly moving quickly and cleaning down the grill etc in between the busy times. Your parents must be so proud of you. Xx
One of the cleanest McDonald's I've seen in a minute. That's hard, thankless work that you're doing, and I for one appreciate it! Stay strong out there retail and food industry working fam! 💪
Czyste? Przeicez to wszystko upierdolone jest przecierane brudnymi rzeczami XD
Gotta be honest man I've just recently discovered your videos and I've been enjoying them. Please keep it up and hopefully longer videos soon!
I just found your channel yesterday and I'm obsessed. I love how efficient you are at your work and its so relaxing to watch!
You always hear about how Efficiently McDonalds are run, but until you actually see just how efficient it is, it is mind boggling. I worked in the service industry for a while when I was in High School. I absolutely loved it. I never knew watching someone do daily tasks at their job would be so entertaining. Keep up the good work. I don’t personally eat McDonalds but wow that kitchen is spotless.
I recently quit my job at McDonald’s and this video puts into perspective how wrong we did things. The tools we didn’t have and the manager that we deserved.
*That is exactly what we want to see! Stephen you are the best!* 💯
*Always like to see how a McDonald's process works, from cooking to assembling!* 😊👍
Stephen is the gold standard... I just came from McDonald's for breakfast. Asked for the "2 sausage egg and cheese McMuffins for $5" deal. Lady says "1 Sausage egg and cheese McMuffin, please pull up to the 2nd window". Me: "No, TWO sausage egg and cheese McMuffins".
McMuffins come out, 1 is fine, the other is MASSACRED. Idk how they managed to fuck up the muffin as badly as they did, but it makes me think it was on purpose.
I love this stuff, your videos have done more than any advertising I've seen. Went out and got mcdonalds just because your videos gave me cravings.
The longer videos really rock. As a owner of a food trailer that we just do big events I can really see how McDonald's has everything in place and everything very thought out for placement and people seemingly doing nothing and all of a sudden their job produces product needed to finish the meals! Great job and really like the behind the scenes of the fast food operation that you are apart of and todo so many things and not move more than three feet is a big for thought for who ever layed out the kitchen!!!!!!!
Reminds me of my first job in fast food. There was something rewarding about just being in the zone while doing a bunch of things at once.
There is something very pleasing about working the line when the planets are aligned & all is well….
Definitely. It makes you feel skilled being able to balance all of the tasks efficiently
I worked at McDonald's in the 90s my 1st job now I'm watching it on youtube.. Full circle lol... it was a fun job!! Thanks for sharing it kinda cool seeing how the hardware has changed!!
At 6:36 it sounded like he was building something in a lego game😂😂
Your channel will blow up soon for sure. Your videos are amazing to watch!
Just saying, as a kitchen worker from france putting gloves to put the fried chickens inside the oil to avoid touching the chickens it's "too much" since oil is legit frying every bacteria ^^ but great vid :)
its more so they dont cross contaminate their hands when they touch other stuff like sausages or patties or eggs, means they dont gotta wash their hands after every thing they drop
its required by law in most states in the usa, might be every state now
@@Juanhernandez-is3zt in my mcdonald in france we actualy wash our hands every 30 mins in rush, and if you touch your skin by skin i mean your face, grab something on the floor or even touch a trashcan you need to wash your hands that's why im saying that ^^' i think it's better for the environement to wash your hands than using plastics no ? (I think not sarcasm)
@@Juanhernandez-is3zt you realise how wasteful that is right... i dont understand the need to glove up for every little thing when there is access to water and dispensable soap within arms reach
The #1 thing I hate about working at a McDonald’s is being by myself all of the time it got old fast especially during rushes
I love these long vids, please do many more, I could watch these for hours
7:54 Sounds like He-Man came for breakfast.
Dude doubled his subs over the past week and he is giving the people what they want!
Which is basically, "enough with the tiktok crap. I'm here to stay and watch."
Seeing a professional work is always impressive, no matter the profession.
yes!!!
Love mcdonald's breakfast best fast food breakfast great job as always
Love these videos Stephen. I hope corporate gives you kudos for these. It’s so fascinating.
One thing that stands out to me about your videos is how quiet everything is. When I was running a kitchen a few years ago it was constant yelling, communication and people alerting everyone. Mind you we have myself and two other cooks having to communicate with 2 cashiers so we where always throwing orders to each other and all that, but this is almost deathly silent in comparison.
I was thinking the same thing. I wish we could be non stressful and making less than HALF in trays would be a blessing!
That's pretty common in morning business, I've never worked McDs, but have worked a few kitchens. Its always quiet in the morning due to less volume & less people. In the mornings when I was working I'd be the only one cooking. Wouldn't get a hand till a few hours later if it was a weekend. But dinner service is entirely different. Many more cooks, demand, and jobs being done. People inquiring how long till this or that is ready, or needing this or that. Be willing to bet that it gets fun later at night during dinner rush.
Watching you work is relaxing for some reason. I can't explain why. It's not just the food either. Good job, by the way.
I’m in love with your videos! Lol ♥️
I like the insight gained from watching these types of videos, thank you for the upload mate, enjoyed the content 😀
These videos are really relaxing to watch for some reason. Please make longer versions :)
Oh yes oh yes! Great video once again my good friend!! I’ve been eating mcd’s almost everyday the past few weeks all because of your videos! I can’t get enough of this jawn! I hope everyone is having a great week! Greetings from lovely NJ! - Gary.
Thanks Gary! Look forward to your positivity on every post! Greetings from Ohio
everyday for the past few weeks? dosent seem that healthy but its mcdonalds so whatever.
@Stephen patula why you changing gluves frequently ?
@@saaddawoodaaa5723 might also be easier to work without them when you dont need them
@@dr.pepper45 positive vibes only! - Gary
this is like the advertisement mcdonalds needs... shows excellent work ethic and quality with speed. AWESOME!!! KEEP IT UP!!!!!!
These workers do an amazing job considering the pressure during peak hours. I salute them. True professionals no matter their age
I never imagined watching something like this but it's oddly satisfying. You're really good at what you do man, honestly. I worked line for a few years at a Quakers Steak and Lube and I can tell you now some of the people I met never valued a steady job the same way you seem to.
You'd be a pleasure to work a line with if I ever did again. It is a rough gig, one positive person can change the whole atmosphere at a job like that tho.
I don’t eat McDonald’s or any fast food restaurants but holysh*t you guys work. This is nonstop.
Your channel is gonna blow up. Channels that just post them working in like fast food jobs are so underrated and I think more people than you would think like to watch them as well.
In the covid peaks of 2020 I worked at mcdonalds for 7 month and mostly on grills you brought back my amazing memories. That was the greatest work space i ever worked at :)
I remember when i was leaving there i was all in tear and sadness….
Definitely a lot cleaner than what I was expecting!
i doubt most of them are like this
its breakfast wait till 6pm
This guys movements and mannerisms are insane. No wasted movement. You can tell he’s been doing this a long time and is very thorough and efficient
Love how u work keep pushing bro an thanks for dealing with all the bs for us to have a quick fast meal
Very satisfying to watch
I'm jealous that you guys cook folded egg like that without having to crack the egg, mix, pour, add cheese and lastly have to fold the egg manually
u should ask corporate to make machines that have noises like crickets, wolf howl, birds chirping, and other woodland noises instead of beeps kinda like how amazon changed the backup noise on their trucks from a beep to something gentler
This channel got recommended to me 😂 I didn’t think I’d love the content but here I am watching all your videos ❤, new subscriber 😅
Breakfast is my favorite. Love the breakfast stuff!
I wanna see a POV you working at the Lunch Grill. Frying up burgers.
Yes coming soon
Man left McDonald's a few years ago but damn does this bring back memories. Btw i don't know if the grill at your store is the same as mine but ours you could press the Right arrow to cycle backwards on the cook time selector thing at 4:00
Placing the burgers on the grill sounded like Lego bricks
Why the hell is this so satisfying to watch
The way everything is done and coordinated is so nice to watch!
0:25 "Crispy" is an actual mode lol
It sets the timer, crispy is 6:30, other chicken products are 2:30.
dont know why but i'm very impressed with how organized everything is then again that's always been mcdonalds even from the beginning was the organization and efficiency
Everytime I watch this guys video I end up buying McDonald’s
i loved working the grill, sadly i never got to work breakfast grill cuz I was the afternoon shift. But there's something really satisfying about working the grill that I can't explain
I don’t even know why these are so entertaining but I can’t stop watching
well done ..a tad bit better than i had it back in the mid 80's before the clamshells ...and all the eggs were still in the shell ..bacon had a slip sheet over each piece ..the canadian bacon cooked well ...i looked for years to buy an old egg mc muffin cooker with the lid and rings ..no luck ..cooked 6 at a time added water and butter to the rings cooked so well ..kool videos ..it gives people who are curious what the job is and what to expect if you take the position :)
Imagine having a burger made by this legend
Reviewbrah would melt
Chicken Legend lol
Made me Not eat McDonald’s anymore 😂🤣 thanks for the childhood memories 🤙🏾
Respect to you guys with these jobs..give me one evening doing this ..and I run screaming into the night ..finding another les stressfull work
Man this videos are so addicting keep them coming bro
The amount of meat you put in your trays compared to the one I work at is interesting. Usually we have 16 sausage in one tray, 4 crispy in one tray and a whole pack of folded egg in one tray
This looks like a new McDonald’s??? (Maybe it’s just cleaner 💀) but the one I work at has been around for a really long time and some of the workers have been there since I was in elementary. I think it could be that over the years they find that having certain ways just makes it easier.
It’s possible this was filmed during a slower part of the day, just to show the process of everything
@@SquidofBaconator Has to be I worked at McDonalds. No way that amount will suffice a rush
Pro tip on using the scrap blade. Scape forward and lift up then repeat and don’t scrape backwards because it will dull the blade faster. Could save you money.
Love seeing these vids. Reminds me of the grind at dominos when I was younger
I’m subbing i like your vids gives a new perspective to what goes on back in the kitchen
Was hoping to see how you make the round eggs. Are they fresh cracked? I had an egg McMuffin this morning and the egg had some shell in it all it got me curious!
Yes, they crack them.
Yes, round eggs are all cracked from an egg
I feel like tongs would be so much better to prevent waste but maybe not sterile/clean enough over time. I do appreciate the attention to sanitation for sure!!
Bulshit he's only doing this for his film this place isn't like this on a daily basis 100% fact
Great video. Thanks. This is the reason I like McDonalds...it's good food, is consistent from place to place, but most importantly I can trust it to be prepared safely and properly.
it's always a good day to wake up in the morning and watch a spatula video about breakfast.
As always, fantastic POV!
Thank you!
5:45 a fart can be herd.
This is so enjoyable to watch
neat to see what happens behind the scene, folded egg surprised me, i thought they would have been liquid eggs cooked onsite, They are surprisingly good for coming precooked from a bag. How do i get a bag of sausage patties🤔SEC Biscuits
im confused too cause when i worked there 17 years ago they were a liquid and u had to fold them once cooked.
@@jonathanruolo3940 we do the liquid egg and manual scramble for scrambled now, fresh crack the round, and this for the folded!
@@jonathanruolo3940 when i started in 98 we did the eggs with liquid, it seemed like other stores where having trouble keeping up with the demand for the eggs so they went to already cooked ones that where then steamed on the grill, also at one time mcds had round eggs also done that way and after i stopped doing breakfast they changed back to cracking eggs and putting them in a ring to cook
0:15 it’s a horse 🐴
hoping for more videos in the future, loving this content ❤️
Awesome video dude and i like how they make McDonald's food alot :]
You're an artist in the most mysterious way
Literally after watching your videos, I had to treat myself with a McDonald's Double Cheeseburger yesterday for this lmao. As a psychology major studying Industrial/Organizational Psychology, it interests me to see how you work and how you communicate with the other employees in your workplace. Keep it up, dude. I'm planning to work as a Human Resource Manager in the future by the way after I graduate.
I graduated with a psychology degree and a specialization in industrial/organizational psych about a year ago!
@@Stardew_0 ooh what's your current occupation now?
I work in finance now, I got a job in finance during my last year of college and really loved it. I still love psychology but I think I will stick with finance for now!
@@Stardew_0 glad you're doing well, finance ain't my forte at all but helping people find jobs that best suit them will do. I'm planning to become an HR Manager and a clinical psychologist part-time in the future. Also currently doing research while I'm learning.
That bacon flip and the Olive Nueton Johnny on the radio. Why wouldn't buddy feel like a champ? Every body wants his sausage.
Great video series man, keep it up
What was sprayed on the eggs at 1:49
Butter
@@StephenPatula many thanks
This actually looks low-key fun. Wouldnt want to do it every day cuz of all the grease, but if i could like, be an uber mcdonalds worker where i sign up for a day just to try it out, i could do it recreationally and it would probably be a blast
