Shout out to all the line cooks worldwide! We appreciate you.
Seriously, thank you for making this episode. Home cooks these days don't always appreciate what real restaurant cooking takes and is all about. I'm happy food culture continues to grow but people need to know where the line is drawn
That was so f-n lame. One dish, two orders. No station coordination. That is some training wheels shit.
First we feast thank you 👍👍
@@mayordoctor3961 absolutely. Baking is the same way too. Baking a loaf or two of bread at home is one thing, having to bake 150 loaves every morning and do everything else is a completely different animal.
how about giving him a surprise by sirning him up for masterchef

Worked as a line cook at 16 with a head chef that had damn near 30 years in the business, it was brutal but when I left for school, he gave me a hug and wished me the best of luck in my future. I went back to that restaurant after I got my first degree and secured my job, asked for Carl and when he came out I thought that the man was about to burst into tears when he saw me. A hard earned experience that I am very much grateful for that taught me many values that I now have in my current management position, thanks Carl.
Ryder21 no problem!

In my kitchen its called "When there's no manager, What? What dropped? Nothing dropped."

I worked in a scratch bakery, and we would yell to everyone when we dropped something “Who wants overtime?!”
Gotta say the chef is genuine and encouraging. Usually chefs will pressure the shit out of you and expect you too work fine but he seems so chill but firm haha
I guess he can be both, he shows maybe a different face when there are no cameras, but idk
In my limited experience working in professional kitchens (2 different jobs, about 2 years each); I feel the whole "super-mean chef" thing is abit overblown and propagated by some famous chefs like gordon ramsay. I've never had chefs that were like that. Mostly you work as a team rather than some asshole shouting shit at you. Might be different at a Michelin-star restaurant, but i wouldn't expect most "normal" restaurants to have chefs like Gordon "fuck off" Ramsay.
Of course, I'm from Norway, and there might be cultural differences in workplaces in different countries in general.
I think it’s because babish isn’t actually working at the restaurant it’s just a scenario and conditions that will simulate the feel of working their

i've really lost touch with the Hot Ones guestlist as of late, and idk why he hasn't already had an episode. I'd tune in for it!
@@ritualcities Yeah, too many big time boring celebs. Hot Ones needs to get back to its roots.
Honestly don’t think there’d be enough for Babish to be a good interview guest.
Don’t get me wrong I love him, but is there really enough an interviewer can ask him?
@@c4gob00m - You obviously dont know the research Sean and his team do on guests.
Hell those guys could get an good episode out of you if they tried.
Its really about how engaging the people being interviewed are, the best ones are not someone ans questions, but when they 2 have a conversation.
DismemberTheAlamo trust me, I’ve watched every episode of Hot Ones and I’m fully aware of what they do behind the scenes.
I’m still convinced Babish wouldn’t be the best guest interview wise despite what the fans think, and that’s coming from someone who loves Babish and Hot Ones.
"It's the FNG sir."
"Right... what kind of a name is Babish?"

After working in fine dining for so long I can honestly say that my favorite part of the kitchen is when sh*t hits the fan. You always find a way to get it done. The will of line cooks could be rivaled with the damn navy seals.
As a 6 year line cook who works 5-7 days a week I love this so much! We work hard!
spent 5 years myself, recently got out for FOH because we dont get tips/overpay :>
Glad someone does it. Not for me either. Line cooks need better pay.
I couldn't help but notice that they didn't have gloves on when they where handling the finished product, which is an absolute no-no. Of course you probably knew that.
Ioannis Giannas yeah I kill at least 1-2 full boxes of gloves a day lol.
@@ioannisgiannas9875 gloves are only legally required handling food that's ready to serve, whether its premade or served raw. Really nice kitchens rarely use gloves, but do require things like employees sharing health records and reporting illness is serious

The African King You Suck At Cooking, he’s a really funny cooking channel, I’d go watch him if I were you
They've collabed
Me: wondering why my burger is taking so long
The chefs: hiding in the rooms to scare someone
if you come into a nearly empty restaurant, and your food isnt like damn near instant, there's a 50/50 shot that you caught them in the middle of prep, or shenanigans.
Can confirm.
So true
"you can, trust my balls."
Oh yeah, it's all coming together.
I started dying when he threw two burgers away in 0.5 seconds😂
And that was with no real pressure.
and did the same with the last two tomatoes earlier in the video XD

i just want to thank line chefs/cooks for going through the hell they do and making us food. thank y'all so much. i couldn't do it.

Seeing Babish nervous makes me remember my prep/line cook days and chuckle. I love this. Thank you.

my man has been watching YSAC
I came to the comment section to see if someone else got that reference too
YSAC has to be my favorite cooking based show on this site. I love Babish, but YSAC hits a form of comedy I can't find anywhere else, and I love it. Dude is so unique and creative.
Oscar James deadass thought I’d be the only one to catch this
What time does he say pepper pepper pepper
8:13
I love how Alvin was nothing but encouragement all the way through.
Moros Silverwing he’s like the Mexican, happier version of Gordon Ramsay.
“Gordon did it”
Damn I thought he was born and was already a professional cook
So wait, he just had a few mock line cooking orders though? I wanted to see him in the kitchen with the other line cooks when they started getting *real* orders in and seeing if he could really keep up!!! lol
I figured they would never do that that. Those cameras and lights and camera crew would be in the way in that small kitchen and if they were open they would just want to get orders out. Plus, it looks like he wouldn’t have fared very well.
Its a legit restaurant, & I dont think too many customers would be happy with food coming out a late cause the owner is making a youtube video. Its understandable that they'd use a mock line.
This guy choked making 3 burgers, he'd die on the line.
Much respect for those that cook under this kind of pressure while maintaining quality.
its called being in a business, nothing special, they couldve chosen another line of work

He's had several appearances in First We Feast, but for some reason not Hot Ones. Get him on Hot Ones!
I like babish but he's not big time enough for hot ones. They get legit Hollywood stars on the main show.
pyrotechnic they’ve had RUclipsrs before! Phil DeFranco has an episode.
They've been scaling up with the popularity increase though, I honestly would not be surprised if he's too small for today's Hot Ones.
It’s a RUclips show, no one’s too small as long as they’re cool enough.
@@ainumahtar they're able to book more famous guests now, sure, but that doesn't stop them from getting relatively niche guests. Heck, last season, the only "big names" they got was Gordon Ramsey and Shaq, while the rest were either niche-famous like Ken Jeong or new-famous like Billie Eilish.

i like how babish talked about how he hasnt earned his chef stripes yet. whenever i watch tasty they call everybody a chef on there and it makes no sense
Rie studied culinary
Kei Camba you can study culinary yet not be a chef. That’s what I’m talking about
@@jrivera018 You must earn the title in a kitchen. TECHNICALLY THOUGH, it doesn't matter where, once you have officially earned it in a real cooking environment you can carry the title anywhere it just doesn't mean you're necessarily a "Chef of that specific kitchen" in which you may be working in at the time.
@@jrivera018 Fucking prep cook is a prep cook even if it's Gordon, lol. (Obviously an over-exaggeration)
Kei Camba you can study medical practices and not be a doctor
I like how Babish said he doesn't deserve to be called chef because he hasn't earned it, dude is very humble and that is a great trait to have.
The fat guy hasn't earned it either if this is what he thinks makes someone a chef. I guess going by these standards every burger flipper and sandwich artist is a chef too.
@@momothewitch The fat guy literally has two very successful restaurants and was named as one of the great young prospects in cuisine. Do your research
Lmao he says that so it doesn’t bite him in the ass later. From the way he speaks, he’s such a douche bag.
@@fatherkarl9291 Saying that so it doesn't bite him in the ass later is proof that he understands his skill level. He isn't claiming that he is better than he actually is is. That is humility and honesty. When you say "From the way he speaks, he’s such a douche bag." it sounds like you think less of him just because you don't like the way he sounds. That would make you an actual douche bag.

You need to understand that line cooks do this 10-15 hours a day, six days a week, for low wages and at the cost of health, friends and family.
as a line cook myself (grill station) i appreciate you stepping back there and showing that it aint all that easy!

They collabed to make clay roasted thigh from Hannibal you guys
I'm glad they highlighted that being a line cook is not nearly as easy as people think. It takes a certain kind of person to really excel in that environment.
It's the epitome of being in the present or being in the zone. Anything but is gonna cost you your service.
BWB would have been fired on his first shift if he acted like that at a real job.

@@HawkeyeNation19 i think what he ment, is how calm and patient our friendly chef is in this video.
if you would loose 3 burgers , joke around with the chef, and fail to clean the cutting board within 10 minutes of joining the kitchen, you can kiss your inturnship good fucking bye. especially in france where they are absurdly sirious in the kitchen.
The chef is soo supportive they get along so well :))
This was tame for a dinner service. But love to see the behind the scenes of a kitchen.
THIS is the kind of stuff I like to see. Working on a line is so different, and seeing someone get thrown to the wolves is interesting to see. Especially when it's Babby.
Well im still pretty sure just grilling burgers is far from what chefs in "actual" restaurants do. Say if you had to actually create a dish and not just grill a burger and assemble it :D Also this wasnt even a real situation, they just timed him lol..
He wasn't "thrown to the wolves" these were mock orders
He wasn't the ONLY grill cook during PEAK
@@ghostdtx also he was only making one dish imagine having to juggle 5 different orders coming out at different times cause they are all on different tickets going with other shit. timing is the hardest part of line cooking along with making sure you keep shit clean and everything looking the same
thrown to the wolves, aka picks up two tickets
@@Ex0rz what are you on about? A grill is a way to cook food. You basically just said there are no actual restaurants because you can't grill a burger and by extension can't cook using heat lol. as long as it can properly prepare food it can fit in a kitchen of an ACTUAL restaurant. Also chef's kitchens have a chain-of-command of sorts so yeah if you're manning a station you are probably one of few, if not then only one, working that station. You're 100% right on the Mock orders though.

Great episode, i've been working at a local fast food restaurant for 9 years now, and people never understand how hectic things can be and how you have to keep focused or you'll just lose it, especially when you have 10 minutes to finish 10 french fries, 12 burgers and 6 salads. This episode really shows how difficult it can be when it's just a couple of burgers, let alone when you have to do so much more all at the same time.

My mans lost 2 burgers in like 10 seconds
6:08 Making a burger this way is absolute genius. I tried making it at home. Burned the cheese on the first one, accidentally undercooked the 2nd one. But the 3rd one? Absolute perfection (and delicious)
I washed dishes in a restaurant my aunt used to own in our small town. Seeing all the line cooks at work was an interesting experience because during lunch time and dinner there is so much going on in the kitchen and so many things being cooked. Cooking is such an interesting world and I love it.
I loved the moment at the end with the whole "Now imagine cooking a steak at the same time" thing, because in my mind that is about 90% of the skill involved in running a service.
A friend asked me to describe my job (I'm a lead cook, 6 years in the kitchen now) and I described it as:
"Picture you have 12 dockets in, a fairly tame service, and you have 4 of them actively cooking and should be ready to plate in 3 minutes but that one wanker who orders their steak well done has their order on docket #9, so you take a moment to start the steak cooking but then you realise you forgot about the parmagiana on docket #6, so you lay that but you know it'll take about 7 minutes to cook so you mentally shift #6 to #8 because the next two dockets can be served while the parma is cooking. And you're doing all of this while coordinating your line cook who is plating the majority of the food, as well as the kitchenhand preparing salads, and making sure you have enough of all your ingredients to last the next half hour of service, and calling for anything running low so it doesn't slow you down later, as well as taking the time to remind your flustered floor staff who are feeling overwhelmed by the number of tables that just walked in that running food has to be a higher priority than taking orders because if the food gets cold, you have to remake it and all the extra orders they just took while it was cooling are going to be delayed because of their actions."
My friend doesn't want to become a cook anymore, so I think I got the gist across :D
You forgot to add:
"Now imagine you don't get healthcare, lunch breaks, weekends, vacations, a social life, or sanity."
I F U C K I N G H A T E W O R K I N G I N F O O D S E R V I C E
But it's kinda fun as well, and I make enough to (mostly) justify it. Plus, my job was coronavirus-proof, as the bar I work at was deemed an essential service by the state of Michigan while half the state temporarily lost their jobs.
@@jamesmcmackin8773 Hey glad to hear you're doing okay, I was made essential as well, on reduced hours, since we shifted to takeout only (restaurants still can't seat customers in Melbourne).
Your list of additions was spot on, though I personally get a food break each shift between rushes (though I'm usually "on call" in case things get out of hand) nut I typically don't eat as it makes me nauseous when I start working again if I do. I wouldn't trade it for anything though, I love working in a kitchen.
It's quite an adventure, and it keeps my noggin joggin' more than a lot of other jobs around where I live. No major regrets here, I just don't want to deal with the long-term stresses of reaching career levels of foodservice, that shit can send a man to the grave a bit early.
How could you forget having to answer questions like “is this cocktail sauce or French dressing “? Seriously one of my favorite jobs though.
Every interview I've ever had: "How are you at multi-tasking in a high pressure work environment?"
Always makes me laugh.
For those who want to get into the restaurant business who have little experience cooking, just know that you can get in, there's a process called stageing, which is basically an unpaid internship that allows you to learn on the job, it's going to suck, and it's not easy because you're expected to learn as you do, and I don't mean they're going to teach you everything, you need to keep your eyes open to what you're doing, and the other jobs everyone else is doing to see what they do, because there's very little time to fuck around in the kitchen.
it's hard work working in the kitchen, you'll go home tied and barely able to get up the next day, but you do it because you love it, if you love it. It's ok to realize it's not for you, I did, but damn if I didn't learn to respect everyone in the kitchen and understand their roles for what it takes to bring you your plate of food.
Never be afraid to ask the chef on how to do things, even if you know how to do the task, as them what method they prefer that you do it in, because at this point being this new, it's showing them you can listen and work with them with what needs to be done, don't go trying to show off or claim you know a better method, you don't have the cred to make that type of decision, but to add on to that, if a chef isn't willing to show you how to do something then they're not worth your time and effort, only work with those who are willing to work with you.
If you respect them, they'll respect you.
Also, ALWAYS respect the dish pit crew, there will never be shame in working the pit.
Unless you live in Norway, where you can just do that and get payed...

"imagine having to cook a steak at the same time"....all started at different times but all cooked to different temps..oh dont forget the stuff in fryer. ..and shit this order wasnt supposed to have cheese on it. But you gotta saute those mushrooms.....
I just appreciated every meal I had when eating out like 10 times more.
@@lukeandliz 🙄smh
As a line cook myself,I can relate to this 115%. And by the way,I need a well-done steak right now. *internally screams* I fucking HATE making well-done steaks.
Most kitchens are structured so that line cooks are designated to different tasks, so they only have a few things to focus on at a time (but they have to execute them really well). Especially a kitchen like the one featured in this videos. For example, you would have one cook smashing and cheesing burgers, one cook constructing the buns and toppings, and one cook organizing the orders and working the deep fryer.
It's actually easier than you think, (refer to comment above me). People on different stations. The hard bit is the long hours on your feet with fuck all breaks. And not to forget the tickets that don't stop for hours on end.
I was STRESSED just watching this! Thank you all line chefs/cooks you're all amazing!!
Finally we are getting some appreciation thanx!
ever since i was a child, i have known cooking aint easy, so since then i have always asked waiter/waitress to say thank you to the chef for me.
This looks soooo exciting! Like I can feel the rush!

Babish: i didnt earn that title
Alvin: *takes pencil out from his hat* well today is *puts pencil back in hat* today is the day
Still didn't earn it during playtime.
Can we get a Gordon Ramsey & Babish crossover episode?😂
I don't know Ramsey will probably kill him XD
@@groudongamer3178 To be fair, Ramsey tends to be less harsh on amateur cooks then professionals (hell's kitchen vs master chef is a good example). That said, it comes down to if he sees Andrew as a professional (because he's getting paid) or an amateur (because he has zero professional experience or education).
@@fish7598 yes. That is true. I was just joking. I am very much aware of the much kinder side of Ramsey.
@@groudongamer3178 Haha, sorry, running low on sleep, thought it'd be fun to talk about what Ramsey's really like, hope I didn't spoil your fun or anything.
I disagree i think babs would give him some good comp
Thank you for this episode.
This made me like Babish even more hahaha. He handled the pressure extremely well though, super chill and nice guy.
Well since he is already here, just get him on hot ones already!!
YES PLEASE!
10:17 having "the dough senses fear" flashbacks 😂
hilarious man , great vids as always keep up the good work
I worked in a kitchen up until yesterday because I couldn't handle the environment. It's very intense and definitely not for everyone. This work is not easy and it's good that someone is going out of their way to show it.
8:10 reminded me of when Spongebob couldn't remember the order of the ingredients in a Krabby Patty 😂
So what Bangalore always says on Apex "No time for an FNG" I get it now
Just Ice ohhh shit 😂 idk either
FNGs always die first
After this video i learned something deeply importand.
I can and will always trust his balls.
The reaction to losing it in the stove was as if literally everybody does it and he was waiting for it
At 6:30 he totally messed up the Maillard crust left all that goodness on the flat top ....broke my heart
I love how nice he is
Was a line cook at a bagel store in long island NY not easy but I loved it.
First mistake - the shoes... you need shoes that will grip through the oil and food on the floor 🤣🤣😋 learned this at McDonald's
He is wearing non slips, those are the chefs "pro" shoes, Keep brand if I'm not mistaken
@@Wiggibow my bad- I'm an old, and I only worked in fast food, so we used to wear Doc Martin's back in the day
@@mon6745 yeah they make a lot of non slips that look more like regular sneakers nowadays. Ive tried a few different pairs and they always seem to fall apart really fast. I wear birkenstock clogs now and love them
I bet you learned a lot of bad habits at McDonalds also. Like clocking out and going home at your scheduled time, while your co-workers got their asses kicked after 2 buses came in and you bailed on them.
@@wildwoodandonyx Nope - my parents knew my schedule and I didn't get away with dodging a shift... I'm also 5'9" so it's pretty hard for me to sneak away from anything. I was the one who would be working when church let out or there was a baseball tourney near by, and we got slammed 🤣
Andrew: "You can trust my balls"
Me: "Well, okay. I wish I had such confidence"
Coming hot off a ten hour line shift....still learning things 7 years in the restaurant bizz. Thanks FWF
I'm a cook as a hobbyist, it's a fun hobby to me and I couldn't do this as a job, this is a stressful job and I applaud those of you who manage to actually do this as a job.
Dude, Alvin, your crispy cheddar smash burger looks insanely good. I'm definitely gonna be stopping by The Usual!
