Episode 1 - Bob's Big Boy Burger Copycat Recipe.
The signature Big Boy hamburger is the original double deck hamburger.[57]
The novel hamburger started as a joke. In February 1937, members of an area big band, who were regular customers, visited Bob’s Pantry, one asking, "How about something different, something special?"[58] [emphasis added]. Bob Wian improvised, creating the first (then unnamed) Big Boy, intending the thing "look ridiculous, like a leaning tower".[58] Demand for "the special" soared but Wian sought a "snappy" name, which became Big Boy.[58][note 6] In 1938 the Big Boy hamburger cost 15¢.[60][61]
The Big Boy hamburger inspired and was the model for other double deck hamburgers. This includes McDonald's Big Mac, Burger Chef's Big Shef and Burger King's Big King.[62][63]
The Big Boy consists of two thin beef patties placed on a three layer bun with lettuce, a single slice of cheese, and either mayonnaise and red relish (a combination of sweet pickle relish, ketchup and chili sauce),[64] Big Boy special sauce (often called thousand island dressing) or (in some locations) tartar sauce on each slice of bun. (Regardless, the Big Boy condiment used was often simply referred to as "special sauce" on menus chainwide.) Wian used a sesame seed bun while Frisch's used a plain bun and included pickles. The Big Boy hamburger originally called for a quarter pound (4 ounces) of fresh ground beef, but later, franchisees were permitted to use frozen beef patties, and the minimum content reduced to a fifth of a pound to offset increasing food costs. Other specifications were exacting, such as the bun's bottom section being 1½ inches high and the center section ¾ inches, and 1½ ounces of shredded lettuce used.[65]
Originally, the Big Boy hamburger was the only common menu item required of all Big Boy franchisees

The inspiration for Big Boy's name, as well as the model for its mascot, was Richard Woodruff (1932-1986) of Glendale, California. When he was six years old, Woodruff walked into the diner Bob's Pantry as Bob Wian was attempting to name his new hamburger. Wian said, "Hello, Big Boy" to Woodruff, and the name stuck.

It can be fast food, a sit down restaurant or snack food. If it can be remembered, it can be recreated!
Whitfield's Food Revue this is such a good idea for a series. Racking my brain right now!
+Julianne Sullivan Thank you! Please do let me know of you have any ideas!
fast food is always cold it is not worth a dime unless you are starving to death.
Whitfield's Food Revue how about a Taco Bell Bellbeefer?
Also the McDlt!
Please and thanks.
Wendy's Double 😋😋😋 number #7 please 😂🤣
It is on my bucket list to eat an original Big Boy.
Almost all the restaurants are in Michigan so we need to do a vacation there.
I do not care how many stories they can come up with how the Big Mac was invented. I am convinced they did their own version of the big boy and it was a brilliant move.
This channel needs about a billion more subs. This is an excellent idea. I don't know how EX it is, but I have fond memories of Fazoli's bread sticks and baked spaghetti. They closed all the Fazolis around me when I was like 20 so I miss them so much. I don't know about anywhere else. But I miss them.
Bobs big Boy statue was made by my father Bill Swan along with many other iconic fiberglass statues which are in new book for only 14.99 called "The man behind the mufflerman ".
I'm so glad I found this channel! Copycat recipes are always amazing! I have a Frisch's Big Boy in a nearby town in Ohio. :) We have quite a few.
Bob's Big Boy Big Boy Burgers had a red relish and not the thousand island type sauce most of the franchises had. They also did not use 1/4 patties. More like 1/8 lb. Bun, mayo, shredded lettuce, cheese, patty, bun, mayo, patty, red relish, dash of salt, bun.
This was different regionally, as I explained in the video and I went w/ the general consensus of the employees I spoke to.
I probably made a thousand of those in the late '70s/early '80s while working at Bob's. The only regional difference in the Big Boy hamburger was the sauce. After Marriott took over operations in the late '80s, they did introduce a larger burger called, "Super Big Boy".
this channel is so underrated!
+habbogigi Thank you!
The first job I worked as a cook was at Bob's Big Boy in LA. That was 40 years ago and the store in which I worked was under the management of the original Glendale store.
Bob's has great salad dressings - 1000 island and blue cheese. There must be regional differences in the burgers, because the SoCal stores didn't use dressing on the burgers. They used mayo on the bottom and ketchup-relish spread on the top of the upper layer burger. Also, they didn't butter their grilled buns.
Nice job on your part and that burger looks great. Yes, McD's stole their double layer burger concept. But Bob's was a diner and not a QSR. It couldn't compete with Denny's, IHOP and the rest, as it's all-day dining concept didn't square with their image as a burger joint. I don't think McD's played a big part in the chain's downfall.
Thanks. I lost my legit sauce recipe and could only find the bogus ones. I knew there was buttermilk, chili sauce and Worcestershire in it. I also picked up some big boy seasoning salt in my travels. Not sure it's any good, but i'll try it on the meat.
Niccccccccckkkkk this was fantassssssssstic! I miss Jenn, but I get it. Great combo of fun n facts, burger looked legit too!!! AWESOME! I mean, is the Food Network watching?? Editing on point too. BRAVISIMO!!!👏😸
At The Original Bobs Big Boy in Burbank. They use Red Relish. sauce and Mayo. And the Patties are only 2 Oz. Each. Making a 1/4 pounder when put together Great Video Brother. Looking forward to more 😇😎 Cheers 🥂
I’m gonna make one Double Decker Right Now On My Flat Top. I’ make a Video. Of It. Thank You 🙏
My aunt used to put Big Boys in her luggage when she would visit us in Texas... The good ole days... You should have Millions of Subscribers by now.... Love this channel...
Thank you for this video. My dad loves these and now i can surprise him with one
+John Krop you're very welcome! I really hope he enjoys it as much as we did :-)
Is quarter pound patties accurate? That sounds like a bit much for a double burger from the big boy era. Maybe more like 3oz patties?
As somebody else mentioned, the original Bob's Big Boy burger in CA, used red relish and mayo, not that sauce you used. There is also a super Big Boy Burger, just bigger patties, maybe 1/4 lb.
Another YTer, thinks using Heinz cocktail sauce and sweet relish, comes very close to Bob's red relish!
There are more locations than that. The ones you showed in Michigan were "Bobs" Big Boy. In KY and OH there are still a ton of locations but it's called "Frisch's" Big Boy but it's the same thing as Bob's
+ZachAttack84 Well, I was referring to the original flagship Bob's Big Boy chain. The OG lol
The ones in Michigan are - or were - Elias Brothers, not Bob's. Now they're just called Big Boy, no franchise name. The only Bob's left are in California. The two in the Cleveland area were originally Manners Big Boy and the one in North Dakota was once known as McDowell's Big Boy. Frisch's Big Boy (Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana) are now independent of the Michigan franchisor. One Frisch's near Ft. Wayne is known as Azar's Big Boy. The Michigan company is trying a new "fast casual" type restaurant known as Big Boy Burgers and Shakes. The company prototype is in the Cleveland area.
In Wisconsin we had Marc's Big Boy.............The go to place for the best burger..........I remember they used to put a card board wrap around them and a foil sheet......and unlike the fast food restaurants today, they had CONSISTENCY.....
I'm thinking of going on a vacation just to have some Big Boy back in my life lol
@@WhitfieldsFoodRevue Sounds like a worthwhile wonderful endeavor...........
I really like this segment, hope to see more of them in the future.
TheCanti Thank you! It's a weekly segment!
Can't have it? I just had a Classic Big Boy at Valley View Big Bog in Ohio we are very fortunate to still have 2 Big Boy Restaurants left up here in Cleveland Ohio plus Frichs Big Boy in Western Ohio
Great video. Love this channel is love to ask you a few questions about tips for starting a channel... I'm going to leave you an email. Hope to hear from you.. Keep up the great work
I normally don't care for copycat recipe videos but I loved this one as it fell near and dear to my heart, we lost our Big Boy a few years ago and have been pining for it since, fuck Michigan.
+goodi2shooz I know. I miss my Big Boy too! I find there is no way for me to say that w/out it sounding really odd.
I have one 15 mins away here in Sunny SOCAL! Love the classic big boy hamburger and that world famous blue cheese salad dressing on my salad before
Pretty sure the Bob's in CA had toasted buttered bun, and the red relish... there is one in Downey... maybe thin layer of mayo... unless poor memory?!? But used to take off bun and turn over and use Bob's seasoning... hmmm....
Do you have the arch deluxe on the horizon. Was hooked on them. Trying the sauce for certain. Loving the series already
+Dave Da Drummajor well one of our first Copy Cat videos ever was indeed the arch Deluxe but since that fits this formula so well I think I might have to revisit it :-)
Elias brothers big boy in Southfield Michigan was my parents fav place.
The demise of Bob's Big Boy had nothing to do with McDonalds. They were never direct competitors. It had more to do with parent company Marriott Corporation trying to increase profits and making huge changes that didn't really work out. Additionally the family restaurant trend had begun to decline.
Big Boy was the originator of steak fries.... the best fries in the world... they have closed up 2 in Michigan... I think the only one that is still open is the one on Jefferson Avenue in Detroit 😕
This is one big protein pack hamburger!
Video starts at 3:37
that looks amazing
Looks fucking delicious !-
That intro though lol
+ana lopez the food IS out There! Lol
There ain't no Chili Sauce in the Frish's Big Boy Sauce.... You may have Bob's or Shoney's, But not Frish's
It was an amalgam of the mainstays for sure. So, fair enough.
Frisch's uses a white tartar sauce, the Michigan Big Boy uses the 1000 Island, and Bob's in California uses the red relish and mayo.
And in Ohio are 2 Big Boys in Cleveland that are part of Big Boy International and Frichs Big Boy don't use big boys standard sauce!!!! Ohio Big Boy Restaurants always have uses Big Boy Tartar Sauce as the Big Boy sauce lol we just have to be different I've learned hard way in Michigan that they use different sauce I always have to tell them Ohio sauce if at a Michigan location
That was weird, usually you're drinking some sort of beer not a Dr. Pepper lol
+kle2videoproductions Well, it was only 430 in the afternoon! Lol I save my brewskis until sundown!!
I don't know if that was Frisch's.... I don't believe there is any catsup in the Frisch's sauce... this DOES look a lot more like the Shoney's or the Marriot's Hot Shoppe sauce....
I miss Shoneys. If they had been cheaper I would have done more to keep them in business.
Bob's sauce has more of a redish color.
Yes the original does in Hollywood, but in other regions it varies. Here in the midwest it's like this version.
Hands down for me is the Superhero burger that McDonald's came out with during the Michael Keaton Batman movies. Oh My Lanta that thing was incredible! I used to get them on average once per day. It is the greatest burger McDonald's has ever made. I would be so super stoked if you could show me how to make it.
+Joey M that is crazy, I have done so much research on discontinued fast food items and have never once heard of this burger until now! I just looked it up and it sounds absolutely amazing and I can tell you with 100% certainty that this will be on an episode thank you so much for the suggestion :-)
+Joey M I already have episode 2 in the works and it's McDonald's as well, just think Olympic basketball team :-)
Thank you! I just wish you had the opportunity to try one. They were magical.
I vote for Zantigo or Naugles. I'm a fool for some fast food Mexican style.
+Tim Bunt Zantiago's and then of course Taco Bell's Chilito is very high on our list!
was that a tiny soda or do u have giant hands?
+Cacti88 both!
Are you guys moving?
Wrong sauce
mcdonalds pizza
+jar great call! I already have that on my list I just need to get in touch with some people who actually had it or worked there then so I can get an idea of how the dough was and how the sauce was
I would like to see Sonoran Hot Dog
+Gustav Snorkelson I can honestly say I had never heard of that until now and I just looked it up and it sounds absolutely freaking amazing!
I am sure y had a message somewhere in your childish message
You ain't hooked on phonics I see
Whitfield's Food Revue yes I was falling asleep and wasted. I will correct it soon. You get a pass this time. I will likely give you a positive comment because I like your hooked on phonics comment, it seriously was a good one and well-deserved and made me laugh.
wierdo
In Ohio they used tartar sauce and only one layer hot fudge cakes.... It's a wasteland.
