Is Miami America’s Burger Capital? Top 10 Burgers!

The Miami food scene is exploding and one of those things are burgers. We have so many burgers popping up and today I'm gonna take you to the top 10 burgers in the city. At the end of this video, I'm gonna give you my David's Been Here burger food rating scale. Let's go. The ultimate Miami burger food tour and we got Cowie Burger. This is one of my favorite smash burgers on the planet and they have a burger that's top 15 in the nation. Come inside. And here we go, we're in the kitchen with Daniel. So Daniel, we're gonna make two burgers. Cowie and the Cabrito. Wow, look at that. It's gonna be a delicious smash burger. Here we go. Some salt on top. Now he's gonna smash it. Press it down. Look at that, with the power. Oh wow. Now that's a smash burger, bro. It looks so juicy. I know, man. That's the whole idea. Crispy edges, juicy center. That's why he spread it the way he did. When you thin it out, that's where you get that browning effect, the May-art effect. It's so good. Spicy chorizo. Oh my God, it's so crispy. Dude, it looks too good. Like it looks so fire. So goat cheese for the Cabrito. Some American cheese for the Cowie Burger. Nice chorizo. Look at that. Bacon jam. This is going for the Cowie. That's how we won the burger badge on 2024. Spicy chorizo on top of the, right straight to the bun. That looks so good. Wow, what a burger. Oh my God, look at that. Ground chorizo for the Cabrito. That's like crispy sweet potato. I love that. Wow, I love the technique here. Just the whole presentation is beautiful, man. Good job, good job, Danny. And here we go. We got two burgers. I cannot wait. The Cowie Burger and the Cabrito Burger. Number eight in the nation. And then we have a debate, guys. What do you guys prefer? Sweet potato fries or regular fries? And here we have the waffle fries. I personally love these. I really like this. Or the curly fries. They're amazing. And the other debate is you guys like soda or do you like milkshake or beer? I love milkshakes. I'm so ready. The bacon jam. It's unreal. And another debate I have for you guys. One patty or two patties? For smash burgers, I prefer two, but this one has a lot of stuff on top. It is so good. It's sweet. When I was thinking about this video, I was so excited. Miami is an evolving food city and Cowie was one of the new wave of burgers. Of course, you got Ted's, you have Coney Island, you have Skinny Louie's, but this one is phenomenal. And now I'm gonna try the eighth best burger in the nation. Look at that. The Gabrito Burger. This is more of a Latin influence. You have the crispy, sweet potato, the goat cheese. Oh my God. It's too good, guys. It's too good, it's too good. It's so juicy. It's sweet from the honey. The crispy sweet potato. I keep moving around and tell people how good this burger is. God, come to Miami, come to Cowie Burger and try Gabrito Burger. And of course, we're in Miami, so we got Latin influence. We have Roquetas, we have Tequeños, Cuban, Venezuelans. We got it all here. And because of saltiness, I'm gonna have some of this milkshake. This is like one of my favorite days of shooting. I feel like a kid again. And all that Latin American influence in Venezuela, Colombia, anywhere you go in Latin America, you're gonna get burgers. Burgers is, it's global now. A little bit of this waffle fry. Mm, crispy. Oh man. So burgers pair with a lot of stuff. You know, beer, milkshake, but why fries? Well, the history is back during World War II, the Americans went over to France and French fry, the only reason it's called French fries is because when they came back, they were like, we want our French fries. But really, that originated in Belgium. You can debate me on this. I learned that in Belgium. They'll say it's the Dutch fight against it too, but after World War II, it was an incredibly difficult time. People were starving. So a burger, add the fries. The fries was something very affordable. Just cut the potatoes, fry it, and that's it. Plus it fills you up. And of course, it's delicious. Fast food and burgers are synonymous. And I'm gonna show you something called the Wendy's method. You grab a fry and you dip it into your shake. I don't know why people would do this at Wendy's, but. Mm, a little sweet and salty. And now for the David's been here food rating scale, not the Food Ranger scale. Sorry, Trevor, I love you. Okay, so value and taste. Value, I give it an eight out of 10. It's not expensive expensive, but I think it was $13 for the Cowie burger. So if you add everything together, probably a $20 meal. And then in terms of taste, it's hard not to give us a 10, but I'm gonna give it a nine for now just because I know I'm gonna try a lot of other burgers. But this is like, remember, this is a smash burger, fast casual. We're gonna try some amazing burgers, but I have to say, this is one of my favorite burgers ever. Oh, the Yoda. For the ultimate burger tour of Miami, we're here at Babe's Meat & Counter. And producer Nate says, this is his overall favorite burger in the city. I'm excited, never been here. Let's do this. And here we go, check this place out. Incredible, look at this. They have all the meats over here. They got wines, they got beers. It's a mini market, but look at this, incredible cuts of meat. You can also buy the burger right here, the blend. They have ground beef, chorizo sausage, and everything looks phenomenal. And they have three different burgers. We're going with their main burger, the Babe's burger. And here we go. Look at this burger, what a beauty. So it looks just like a beautiful regular burger, but Wagyu beef, you got the American cheese. Look at that, the sriracha mayo. Yeah, yeah, thank you so much. And we got the fries right here, that nice crispy fries. Is this going to be the best? Oh my God, look, it's like nice and creamy. The pickles though. Yo, the meat. Oh man, the cheese, the pickle, I love how creamy it is. It's a sriracha mayo, a little spicy, not too much. This is like the burger you have on the weekends or a tailgating, but upscale. Like when you're friends, but at the same time, flavors are amazing. Yeah, it looks like just like a regular burger, but no, this is not a regular burger. This might be one of the best here. Mm, man, the combo, just that meat. Wow, Wagyu always does a trick, heaven right here. You know what I like is that you don't have so many ingredients. I like it when it's more plain, just like cheese, the patty, and that's it with the pickle and that amazing sriracha, sriracha mayo. It is delicious. Of course, with a burger, we have to have fries. Oh, so nice and crispy, actually super crispy. For the David's Vineyard Food Rating Scale value and taste, I'm going to say for under 14 US dollars, I'm gonna give this thing a nine out of 10. And for taste, it is a stellar burger, classic burger, but the cheese, the meat, the bun, everything pairs incredibly well together. Another nine out of 10. I mean, it is the perfect round table. Gotta drive out here, but it's great. Wow, I think I need another one. The ultimate burger food tour of Miami, and we're here at Apocalypse Barbecue. I love this place. They have amazing barbecue, but their burger is out of control. Let's go inside. Let's try it. Into the kitchen. The Hefe and the Wild Boar 2.0. So what do we got here? Two eight ounce patties, look at that. Beautiful burgers. The Wild Boar 2.0 looks so fire. Oh my God, look at the cheese on that. Chopped cheese. Bread. Man, I love being in the kitchen, bro. This is where the magic happens, huh? For the barbecue. All right. Wow. Look at that crust, amazing. So beautiful. Little seasoning on top. So the only difference between the two burgers is what you add on it, right? Yeah, yeah. Bacon, this bacon. Yeah, the bacon. Hot bacon over here. Cannot wait. See, you gotta light it up. It looks so juicy. Just gonna add some cheese now. Cover it again. Let that cheese melt. I mean, it's a big patty. Look at that cheese how it's just like oozing right now. That looks so good with the bacon on top. And then over here we have the caramelized onions. So it's the OG sauce? OG sauce on top. Tangler that we make every day. Cowboy candy. Yeah, it's like a jalapeno, basically. Hefe sauce. Homemade pickles that we make all day. I mean, every day. And then we also put caramelized onions on top. Beautiful, man. That's a stacked burger. And here we go, the two burgers. I am so pumped, guys. They look amazing. Right here we have the Hefe. Look at this monster of a burger. Eight ounces. Yeah, the American cheese. It's a classic burger. Got the pickles in there. Got some onions and the potato bun. A Gilbert's bun. And here we go, guys. Oh, yes. Yo, the meat's amazing. Oh, I love the sauce. The OG sauce. Cheesy, it's crunchy. I love the pickles. Oh, wow. This is a big burger. Let me take a bite. Amazing. You know, when I think about Apollo's barbecue, I think about the brisket, I think about the ribs. Right now, I'm actually, like, overwhelmingly amazed by the burger. And by the way, the OG sauce, it's like a Thousand Island sauce. Most of these traditional burgers have that sauce. I mean, it's a big burger. The eight ounces and medium. I love the pickle in there. And here we go, this is the wild boar. I'm excited about this one. Everybody keeps raving about it. So we have those crispy onions. We have the candied jalapeno. We have the bacon. Cheese. Oh, my God, this is big. Eight ounces? How do we get into this? Oh, yeah. This is the winner. Mm. Savory, sweet. It's crunchy. Oh, man, the bacon. Mm. A little spicy. It's not a smash burger. It's like a real traditional burger. But this is a little overwhelming. I mean, in terms of how many things are inside, but the amount of flavors and textures at the same time, it hits. Oh, my God, it smacks. I love the bacon. Wow. So the crunchiness of the bacon and the onions really adds a nice texture to it. And for you guys, what do you think? You guys like extra toppings or you want it more traditional? For me, I like this extra stuff. It's amazing. And over here, we have the fries. So for the comparison, of course, these are double fried and they give you a lot of fries. Oh, my goodness, I'm ready. Salty, it's gonna be crunchy. Mm. Yeah. They're very good. And of course, get some barbecue. Barbecue spot. By the way, I love this restaurant. It's a new location. It's always packed. No matter what time of day you come here, especially on a Friday, there's like a line at the door. People are waiting outside. Great spot. I mean, come here, try everything. The brisket, the ribs, but of course the burgers. Man, I'm gonna finish this one. This one's so good. Just gonna have to have another bite here. So the David's been here. Food rating, skill, value, and taste. In terms of value, I'm gonna give it a eight. And then in terms of taste, I'm gonna give it a 9.3, okay? So why? Eight because it's $17 and $18 for the burgers, but they're monster burgers. I mean, they're filling. If you have one and fries, you're good, but they're amazing burgers. So I really, it was hard for me to judge them. I really love the wild boar more just because of everything it has on top. The spiciness, the bacon, the crunchiness of the onions. But this one's classic. I love the amount of cheesiness and how the sauces pair with everything in there. So yeah, I'm gonna give it a 9.3. It's a great place, guys. Come to Apocalypse. Wow, burgers for life. And in case you're wondering what I do with the extra food, there isn't any. I eat it all. This is my brother, Jeff. He is the owner of Apocalypse Barbecue. We told your story before, but dude, the burger is insane. Thank you so much. Thank you. No, thank you guys. Oh, man. Always love to have you guys in here, man. Happy we can share this food with the wonderful people of the world. Hopefully you guys can come in and take a bite, and I appreciate you for coming to grab some. Which is your favorite burger? That's not fair. It's like asking me to pick my favorite child, but if I had to say, it would probably be the jefe. The jefe? No, the wild boy. The wild boy. I'm a wild boy. Wild boy, wild boy. Yeah, it's got a little bit more of that barbecue flair. Yeah, plus the candy jalapeno. Yeah, I think I'm gonna have one for lunch. Later, my brother. This is the ultimate burger food tour of Miami, and I'm here at Chuggy's, sister restaurant of the Chuggy's Diner, right here in Coconut Grove. They have a Cuban twist, but they have amazing burgers and fries. We're going for the OG. Come inside. It's 2026. Everywhere has a screen. Here we go. We have the menu right in front of us. Go to the screen. Tab to order. We're going with the OG. It's right here. Single patty, chug sauce. Let's do it. I'm going with a small fries, because I'm eating a lot today. Let's get a soda. That's the original way is to get a soda. They have a few different sodas here. When I say soda, I mean specifically a cola. I'm American. I need my ice. So the original way to order a burger and fries was with a cola. So that's what we're doing. Into the kitchen. Let's see how the magic's made. We got Chef Paul. My man. Ready. I'm ready as well. We're doing it the OG, right? The OG. Let's make it happen. Starting off with a nice beef patty. Juicy. Right on the flat top. Nice and sizzling in there. Then we're going to go with our seasoned salt, our Lawry's. Seasoned salt, Lawry's. Pressure to get a nice sear. Oh wow, that looks amazing. Some nice bread. Yeah. Small fries right into the basket. So in our fryer, we're going to have beef tallow. Adds a lot of flavor and just makes it so much more crispier. Can't beat it. Beef tallow. Like the Belgians. Wow, look at that. Look at the juice popping. It's so juicy. So right here, we're going to flip it. Just want to make sure that sear is really there. Cheese goes on top. American cheese on top. So he's going to build a burger now. So what are we adding here? This is going to be our chug sauce. Chug sauce. Island sauce, mayonnaise, ketchup. Man, I'm building up an appetite here, guys. Look, we got the pickles and cucumbers. I'm not a fan of pickles, but these pickles right here, they're just amazing. Oh, I love pickles. Some fresh lettuce. Some crispy onions for the burger. All right, they're ready. Look at that golden brown. GBD. That's what she said. All right, so he's adding, add some salt. Order up. Paper bag, just like the fifties. Let's do this. Open it up. I'm excited. Burgers. Smells like America. I'm going to eat this burger and at the end, I'm going to give you the DBH food scale rating. One out of 10. Value and taste. Let's do this. The OG. Ready? Oh, look at that. This is it. Let's do it. So juicy. Cheesy. Love the crispy onions. Oh, chug sauce is amazing. And another bite. The OG. I taste America right here. I also feel a little bit of a Cuban twist. The Cuban twist is basically the fritas. Oh, they're good. And the pickle, it cuts through the burger like a lightsaber through butter. We're trying all different types of burgers on this tour, but this is of course a smash burger. I've become a huge fan of smash burgers. Part of having burgers, always get fries. I also love onion rings, but today we're doing shoestring fries. Look, nice and crispy. Oh, with the beef tallow, it's like extra crispy. Still super hot. I'm going to try it. This is how I like to eat. There's like a lot of them. Oh yeah. Crispy, salty. I'm going to dip it into the chug sauce. Wow, they're good. So why are burgers so good? Well, anybody can eat them. My kids, my parents, me, and everywhere around the world. And usually they're pretty affordable. Unless you're going super gourmet, but. Burgers forever. I'm happy. And of course, when you have a burger, classic cola. Wow, that is refreshing. With the heat, it cuts through all the saltiness, that savory taste. Wow. For the David's Vineyard Food Scale rating, value and taste. Value, 10 bucks. Plus an extra, I think, $2.50 for the fries, and an extra $1.50 for the drink. I think it's pretty good value. I'm going to throw up there with 9.2. Great value. I ate for under $15. That's amazing in Miami. And for taste, I'd say seven out of 10. It's a solid burger. And to explain the taste, it's a great beef burger. Solid ingredients and the fries. I love that it's been in the beef tallow. But of course, it's not like a crazy, extravagant, over-the-top gourmet burger. But it's solid. It's really good. The ultimate Miami burger food tour. And we're here at the Elson Hotel in downtown, and we're eating at Vice Versa. They have an incredible burger. People tell me this is one of the best in the city, and they only have it on Mondays. So you know it's good. Let's go inside and meet with Justin. And this is Vice Versa. Justin, how you doing? Great, how are you? Very good. I'm excited, bro. We're excited to have you. Yeah, welcome to Vice Versa. Follow me to the kitchen. Let's go. Let's check it out. This place is great. I love it. Nice and dim. It's like a speakeasy. Yeah. Nice and hot in here. This is Sonny. Sonny, what up, man? How you doing? He's my burger. He's your burger assistant? Yeah. Fresh potato bun that we bake every day. We're gonna hit it with just a little bit of clarified butter, and then we'll give it a quick little toast in our style manner. We're pretty much ready for battle here. We have, this is a white cheddar aioli. This is an onion emulsion. Caramelized onions. All prime beef with a little dry-aged, and some, we have a wagyu carpaccio, so we take all the kind of trimmings from that. We use good quality stuff. Homemade bun. We, like I said, we bake these fresh every day, so we just want to kind of give them a little toast and a little warmup. We'll assemble the bun. So, because the burgers cook really quick, so we'll just get it all ready. All caramelized onions. All right. So we have our patties here, ready to rock. So two patties per. Right there on the flat top. He's gonna flatten them. No fat is necessary. There's a good amount of fat in the blend. Wow, look at that. It's amazing. Just kosher salt, no pepper. I can see that already, that we're ready to go. So quick. So we're gonna flip that guy, and then over here as well, really quick. We're gonna put one piece of cheese, put our cheese melter on there. How many burgers do you sell on a Monday? We'll do anywhere between 75 to 80. 80 burgers on a Monday. Looks so juicy. Pop that guy on there. Wow. A little toothpick in there. And then just onto our plate with homemade bread and butter pickles, and that's it. So the Vice Versa burger. I cannot wait. Look at this incredible smash burger. You got the two patties, the caramelized onions, all the different sauces, the cheese, and the potato bun. And there's no fries here, so we're gonna have to adjust the scale at the end. All right, here we go. It's gonna be an amazing bite. Juicy, sweet, a little crunchy. Oh my God, you know what? It's actually a monster burger. Two patties, the bun's so fluffy. And they have the pickles on the side. Yeah, the saltiness really goes with the sweetness of the onions. Like a lifesaver through butter. Yo, it's gonna be hard. This incredible burger is so amazing. It's phenomenal. I love the pickle. Oh wow. As an American, I'm gonna say this is the best video ever made. So many burgers. I'm in awe. I'm finishing every burger. Yo, this place fills up fast. You get here at five o'clock, right on the dot, they make around 75 burgers and that's it. This place is a little different from all the other burger spots that we've been to because this is a little more gourmet, but also like a speakeasy vibe. So it's definitely a date spot. Come here on your date on a Monday night, have your burger, have your drink, and enjoy your time here. Wow, this burger is incredible. Oh yes, the juice. So for the day we've been here, not to be confused with the Food Ranger rating scale, Trevor, so value and taste. For value, seven out of 10. And then for taste, it is a 9.3 out of 10. Seven out of 10 because it is a $20 burger, but it's an amazing place. Highly recommend doing this. And in terms of why I gave it a 9.3, I mean, it is an exceptional burger. I was blown away by it. Hard not to give it a 10, but yeah, 9.3 is good. It's like searching for El Dorado. The perfect score, it's hard to find. The ultimate Miami burger food tour. We're here at Coney Burger. I've never tried it. I've heard so many good things. Super hype spot right here in the downtown area. Come inside guys, let's eat. Wagyu Champ Burger. And right here we have the owner, Vanessa. How are you? Hi, welcome to Coney Burger. All right, I'm excited. We're excited to have you. So we're gonna do two burgers, the Wagyu Champ Burger and the OG Classic. So Pedro, her husband, the chef, is about to make the best burger in Miami. We'll see. Let's go. Welcome to Coney Burger. Wagyu beef. It's a very thick patty. So super hot. Flat top. Good amount of salt. Clean, love it. Man, and the buns look phenomenal. Wow. Sesame seeds on top. Smells so good, dude. The juice coming out of there. He's adding some butter to the bun. Puts it on the flat top. That is amazing. I love that. It's like a hamster wheel. A portion of salt dough because we're baking daily. Fresh. So this is, I think, like the most important thing in this restaurant. That's one thing you notice right away is the buns look completely unique because they do them in-house. Yeah, it's a combination like between a meal bread and a brioche. It's like very soft, buttery, but at the same time, it's like super, like it's bought like really nice to get all the juices from the burger. So we use like meal bread technique, but like with a brioche recipe. Perfect. It's very unique. Easy way, but like it's not like super easy. Non-stop, huh? Yeah, like 200, 300 a day. So you don't stop selling burgers. Exactly. So we try to bake like three times per day, like very early of those. So right now, it's ready to flip it out. Oh wow, look at that. And you can see like that crust, like all that caramelization. I love that crust. If you don't know the browning of meat, that is the Mayard effect. Super toasted. Yeah, and also I need like a little more time to make like something like faster, not something really, really good. So that's why we use very thick patty, like juicy burger. You can see like all the fat. All the fat is coming out. So juicy. All right, so here's the beef tallow fryer. So you'll see why we have the juiciest burger in Miami. This is the caramelized onion. That's the caramelized onion? Yeah. Oh my God, it looks so good. It's 12-hour caramelization. Wow, roasted tomato paste. Homemade ketchup. I love it. The wagyu champ. No, roasted tomato paste. Yeah, we use sun-dried tomatoes, then we roast it, and then we make like a sauce with onion and garlic. So it's pretty sweet, but at the same time, it's like a little bitter, you know, like just to add a little more umami. So the buns are ready? Okay. Perfect. Look at that. Like this one, that's perfect. He's gonna cut some chives here, some fresh chives. Look right there. Look at that. Look at that, how beautiful that burger is. All right, so he's gonna build a burger now. Yuzu kosho mayo, actually. It's like a combination of like a homemade- Homemade mayo. Yeah, and something what we make in-house is a combination of chili and yuzu fermentation. Okay. It's a little bit like- So that's a unique mayo. Yeah. And now comes the chives, a little herbaceous on top. Roasted tomato paste, what I mentioned. Definitely gonna be a very unique taste. Yeah. Each burger is his own thing. Parsley mayo. The secret weapon? Weapon, yeah. It's a pellet tomato, but pickling, just to cut like a little fat. Let's see if it's good. So you said medium, right? We're doing medium? Yeah, that's what we're looking for. All right, so he added some salt. So he's letting it rest for a couple minutes right there, and then he's gonna put it onto the bun. Pure egg yolk sauce, look at that. The rainbow of flavors in this one, bro. Like a honey mustard. Poncho umami, I love you, bro. Close it. Wow. 15% of Americans think that chocolate milk comes from brown cows. What? We're making the chocolate shake here. It was a base of a vanilla ice cream. I think she put some whipped cream and then she put some chocolate, like almost like a chocolate syrup. Chocolate syrup. Chocolate syrup, perfect. It's gonna be great. This is like my childhood in a straw. So right now she's adding some whipped cream. Wow, look at that whipped cream. Oh my gosh, it looks incredible. Look at this burger. Oh, the juice. I mean, the bun looks amazing. The patty, just everything's coming over it. So many flavors on top and on bottom. The doors of heaven have opened. Oh my God. It really is so many levels of flavor here. It's like the ultimate umami Wagyu beef. Wow, the yolk. Oh, the yolk. So I'm gonna tell you the secret behind that yolk. You know, a lot of people want cheese on their burgers. We don't add cheese to our burger because this yolk gives it that dairy feeling without necessarily having the cheese. And hey, I can't take credit for that. My chef's husband is a genius. Oh, I love the bun. What a combo. Miami's Juiciest Burger. Chef, Miami's Juiciest Burger. I'm getting this one. Guys, it's all about the pairing. So we've got the burger, fries are coming. We've got the shake. I love me a shake. I feel like I'm in a 1950s diner right now. Oh, they cut the salt. The sweetness. Oh, this is my childhood. Mm. We're doing the ultimate burger food tour. This is all pre-approved by producer Nate. He's tried all of them before. All his other food tours in Miami about burgers. Don't trust them. They yelped it. And to show you how good all these burgers are, I'm finishing them all. Yes. I love that. In one day. For the OG burger, we use two patties because we want to make like a really, really- So crispy and juicy. So he's smashing it a little bit. Like a light smash. So like a light smash? Yep. Oh, okay. So it doesn't get like that super crispy edges. So it's not like a smash mash, but it's- Okay, now he's going to add some salt. Perfect. This is the Coney sauce. So this is your signature sauce. The special sauce. On both sides. Great. Dried mushroom in there. Calabrian chili. It's like a bunch of flavor. Oh, okay, okay. So a little spicy. Yeah. Little umami. You can taste like spicy flavor, but like you want to feel like right here, you know? Lettuce. Cut lettuce. Tomato. Some onions. Homemade pickles. Very nice. Juicing up. Yep. Wow. Perfecto. The crust is great. The timing on it. Now he's going to add some American cheese. Of course. We need that cheese. One flip, guys. When you see people turning it multiple times to get rid of all the juices, that's a bad person at a Sunday barbecue. They shrunk, huh? Oh, he's covering it up. Okay. He's going to steam it. Whoa. It's like a amazing scene right there. Pugoso. That burger just looks so good. Wow. It's stacked, huh? So these are our brisket fries. Wow. Brisket fries. Regular French fries, fried in beef tallow, served with slow-cooked 12-hour brisket. Wow. Our OG burger, like you saw earlier. The OG right here. Look at this, guys. It is stacked. Love. It's still juicy. She's the queen of all the land. And regular crispy French fries as well. So every burger at Coney Burger comes with a cookie. This is a fresh chocolate chip cookie. It's always homemade in-house. Brown butter does the trick on that cookie. Right here we have the Coney sauce. It is in the burger, on top and on bottom. The OG. Another burger. Here we go. Right away, juicy and creamy. I love that it has tomato, onion, and lettuce. That's how I was raised, on burgers like that. Oh, and the cheese. Oh my God, it's so juicy, guys. Both these burgers are super umami. This is like a familiar burger. It's something you would have, like, with your family at a barbecue, but obviously this is elevated. It's so phenomenal. I love being American. Or am I Italian? Hungarian? Or Venezuelan? I'm American. That is America. And the pickle. She loves this burger so much, she tattooed it on herself. Man, I'm really in love with this burger. So their fries are cooked in beef tallow. That is the best way. Gives it a nice crispiness. Oh wow. Love the salt level. If I close my eyes, it's like being in Belgium. So for the David's Been Here food tasting rating scale, value and taste value, I'm gonna say a seven out of 10. And then in terms of taste, I'm gonna say this is a 9.5. Now why? Okay, so value is $20 burgers, 20 and 21. So definitely, you know, this is a gourmet burger. This is a great burger. It's a treat, a special burger. And now, look, so for me, the Wagyu Champ burger, that for me was a nine. The OG, I actually liked more, so that was a 10. And I have to rate it together, so it's a 9.5. But they're amazing burgers, two that you have to visit when you're in Miami. And look, we're right here in downtown, so if you're in Midtown, Brickell, wherever, it's right in the center. Wow. The ultimate burger tour of Miami, and we're doing the fancy side. We're here at Daniel's, top six steakhouse in America, top 40 in the world, and they have an amazing burger. It's called the Heritage Burger. I cannot wait. Let's go inside. I'm so pumped, guys. I've heard so many good things about this burger. Look at this. Oh my God. The Wagyu, the Havarti cheese, the marmalade. Got the little D on top. Daniel's, David's been here. And here we go, the ultimate burger bite. I've never had a bite like that before. The ultimate meat pillow. Oh, so umami. Cheese, the marmalade, the bun, and the meat. Oh my God, this is incredible. Sweet. It's so juicy. Look at this, the juices. Wow. Daniel's. As I eat all these burgers on this tour, I fall in love over and over again. Each one's unique. This one, just so much flavor. It is the juiciest burger I've had. The meat is unreal. Daniel's, you are phenomenal. And of course, with your burger, you have to have your fries. Look at these incredible fries. Nice and crispy, rosemary, Parmesan. Ooh, nice and hot. Just at the fryer. The rosemary. Very crispy, still doughy. Oh, they're good. Really nice. Wow. This is a great experience. By the way, guys, this is the burger that you have to eat before you're on a live. I can't say a certain word, but it's the truth. It's that good. Look at this experience. It's packed. Wine, food, steak. But come for the burger. I mean, you must come for the burger. All right, guys, moment of truth. David's been here. Food rating scale. And you're talking about value and taste. Now, value, this is an expensive burger. Over $30, okay? But it is a gourmet burger. It is the ultimate ingredients, every single thing from the bun, the cheese, the marmalade, and the Wagyu beef. It tells you exactly where it comes from right here. Of course, on the value scale, this is definitely gonna go lower. It's not your every single day burger. If I'm hungry, I'm not coming to Daniel's to eat a quick burger. So I'd say five out of 10. But in terms of taste, I'd say 10 out of 10. It is an amazing burger. One of the top I've ever had in the world. Love the fries as well. I'd put it up there. I'd say like an 8.5 for the fries. Nice and crispy. I love the Parmesan, the rosemary. Good touch. And to be honest with you, it's not just the food. It is the experience. Everybody's so nice. People are coming by like, you want some wine? Yo, yo, just the burger, please. Damn. Daniel's is the place to come on a date with your significant other, your spouse. And sadly, I have none. The ultimate Miami burger food tour. And we're here at Proper Sausages. Another meat counter. And you know, with burgers, it's all about the meat. This place has incredible burgers. I'm excited. My first time trying it. And here we go. Freddy, how you doing? What's up, brother? How are you? Very good. Welcome to the shop. So I hear so many good things about your burgers. What are we doing today? Well, we're gonna start with the cheesy onion and then end with the cheesy onion. That's the only thing you're gonna need to eat today. Okay. Yeah. So if you can sell one burger, that would be it? If I could sell one burger over and over and over again, it would be the cheesy onion for sure. It's a terrific Wagyu patty mixed with some bottom round and some chuck. We season it nice. A little bit of salt, a little bit of pepper, a little bit of a few things you'll have to figure out on your own. And then top it with a ton of melted cheese, sauteed onions, and a special sauce. And by the way, look. So we have all the sausages. Obviously the name, Proper Sausages. We got some olive oil. We have wines, beer. I mean, this is a one-stop shop. We hope so. That's the idea anyway. All right, guys. I am so pumped for this one. Look at this burger. Just incredible. The cheesy onion. What? Man, with the sauce, it's like dripping. It is amazing. You got the crispy onions. You have that beautiful like Thousand Island sauce, the focaccia, bread, and the meat. Oh my God, it is juicy. Nate says this is one of his favorites. He's had it like a hundred times. Let's go. Oh my God. I haven't had a bite like that. Oh, the cheddar cheese with the onions. Oh, wow, the meat. It's so juicy. Mm, crunchy. Oh, I love the bread too. Oh, and it's like saucy. It is an amazing burger. And I have to finish it, guys. That's the rule. What an insane burger. So the burger's medium. It's butcher's cut. And the secret to this is the fat, that white and yellow fat. That is literally the secret to making a good juicy patty. Oh, wow. So unique. And man, just the cheesy onion. It's phenomenal. I love this burger. Insane. So the bun comes from Sullivan Street Bakery from New York. Amazing focaccia bun. My friends, look at that. Oh, wow. What a burger. Everybody try this burger. You know, sometimes when I'm eating something so special, I look around, and I wish I could share it with somebody because, like Carl Jung said, it's better to share success and food with people. You want someone to witness it. And now you're witnessing this. Yeah, with every burger, we have to pair it with a drink. And for this one, we got an incredible juice. This is apple, carrot, lemon, ginger. I like that burger and juice. For the David's Bin here, food rating scale, value and taste. Value, I'm gonna give it 8.5. And taste, I'm gonna give it a 10. Now, Y value, 8.5, it's a $16 burger, but it is an amazing burger. It's not $35. It's not $7 like McDonald's. And then taste-wise, guys, this burger blew my mind. It's the best take on a traditional burger, but it's all about the meat and the cheese here. I love the bread as well, but that meat, phenomenal. It's so cheesy, so good. So that's my rating. The ultimate Miami burger food tour. And we're here at USBS, which means United States Burger Service. I cannot wait for this. Nate says these are the best fries in all of Miami. The fries look phenomenal, but the burgers look so good as well. I cannot wait. I'm going with the Priority Mail. Let's do this. Let's go. Look at that, bro. It's all good. I'm ready, man. It's gonna be amazing. Small kitchen, but they pack a punch. Just getting the buns, getting the beef patties. Here we go. Look at that on the flat top. I like that. Ooh, nice and hot. Smash that. I love the technique, bro. The sizzle, the salt, more salt. Oh, cracking some pepper. So this is a little different from the other ones we've seen. You know, like it's not too crispy on the outside, still a little juicy. And those are homemade buns as well. These are definitely hand-cut fries. Not that frozen stuff. And thick cut. In the beef tallow, some salsa fontina. All right, see the patty just came off the grill. Looks so good. Oh, wow, look at that. Oh, it looks creamy. That's the cheese sauce, the fontina. Oh my God, I can't wait. All right, so he's adding some salt to those fries. Look at that, beautiful fries. Best fries in Miami. Man, the Citadel is loud. Lots of people here, so many different spots. But USPS, this is gonna be it. The priority mail. I'm already in love with this burger. Look at that. The fontina cheese is oozing out. Two beautiful patties. And I love how they make their own buns. It already feels different. It's fluffy, it's heavy. What a day. Oh, that cheese. What a Miami burger. So good. The amount of cheese, it's actually amazing. Really different taste from the rest. Has a little bit of French mayo. Nice and crispy, at the same time still very juicy. The cheesiness is what separates it. I love that it doesn't have too many toppings. It's a great burger. And right here, what Nate says, are the best fries in Miami. Oh man, if I close my eyes, I'm an antwerp. Brussels right here. Good fries. Crispy, yet still a little thick, salty. What a great spot. It's like the ultimate cheeseburger. So this is all about the meat. A lot of purists just love that. Meat, cheese, bun, nothing extra. No pickles, no onions, no lettuce, no tomato. This is how I like my burger. For the David's Been Here fast food rating scale, value and taste, it's actually one of the more expensive burgers we had, over $15 for the burger. So I give it a seven. And then in terms of taste, I'm gonna give it an 8.5. It's really hard to rate these things, but every single one gets better than the other. It is a good burger. I would have to come here on an empty stomach to probably rate it higher. Give it a 10. So good. I think these are the only real ones we've had. Great burger. The ultimate Miami burger food tour would not be complete without Ted's Burgers. He has a cult following, including producer Nate. Some people say it's one of the best burgers in the world. I'll be the judge of that. And the Oklahoma burger, they say, is top. All right, guys, come inside. It's blazing here in Wynwood. Woo! So hot. In the kitchen with Ted, my man. I'm ready, bro. Ready? So excited. We're gonna make an OKC, the Oklahoma fried onion burger. All right? Let's do it. Let's get to it. Yeah, and of course, some fries. And you have beef tallow with these fries, right? Yes, yes. A little bit of salt. Nice. Funky, right? Yeah. Yeah, I love the technique. You know, make it crispy on the edges, juicy on the inside, like that? Yeah, so flat style smash. I like to create almost like a dome effect. So if you look at it, you see a little bit of a dome coming up. So good smash, but at the same time, it creates a good sear, right? But with a good bite. I think a lot of people have a misconception of you need to have a smash burger. It needs to be flattened completely into a chip. No, you do not need to do that. You could have a little bit of body to it, and it has flavor. You know, that's the thing that I think people forget. It's still a burger. And why the Oklahoma? George Motes, let's be real. He's definitely, it's like an homage to him. Big fan. And I never thought that I'd be here making this type of burger, and here we are. And why not do it to, again, this is my style of the OKC. Oh, yeah, yeah. So look, he's putting some onion on top. See that crossing the edges? Mm-hmm. And then, here's the tricky part, because everybody's like, oh, you know, there's a certain way to flip it. Well, here's my way. Boom, boom, boom. Wow. No, it's perfect. That's it. And now we're going to the next one. Boom, boom. Pull back a little bit. So we're doing two patties for the burger? I think that's it. I always order double. Team double, yeah, yeah. I tell people all the time, I'm like, it's not that it's a bad bite. Yeah. People are like, oh, but you know, you could go bigger, you could go smaller. Everybody's preference. You know, at the end of the day, whatever size people like. That's what she said. And some American cheese on top. Perfect. Now you just let it sit, right? Let it sit for a little bit, let the cheese melt. Kind of making love right now. You know, this is where the sweet spots are. Like you have to let it just marinate just a little bit. And then the juices that truly come out of this is magical. Oh, I love the bun. Wow. Saucy. And that's it. And here we go with the Oklahoma. This burger is amazing. And the way Ted talks about burgers, he's an artist. This is phenomenal. Look, so the Oklahoma, it is smashed beef patty, American cheese, sweet onions, tea sauce. It's an iconic American burger all around the United States. And if you guys don't know, the original burger was just ketchup, onions, and beef. That's like the 1880s around there. Another burger. It's going to be creamy. Oh, I can't wait. I've been dreaming about this one. Right away. It's creamy, crispy, and juicy. Oh my gosh. Double patty for the win. Ted, amazing. Super delicious. I'm doing the look around. I'm trying to like, let everybody know, this is the best burger. I'm like blown away. I needed like a second to enjoy this. I've had like probably a few thousand burgers in my life. This might be one of the best. In the top 10 for sure. I'm so happy. The Oklahoma and Ted's burgers. Whoa. All right, I'm going to wash it down with a classic Coca-Cola in the glass bottle. Here we go. Ah, sweet. The Arnold Palmer, named after the golfer. Sweet tea and lemonade. It's more like it. In the heat outside. Oh yeah. All right, some fries now. Beef tallow fries. Actually, they look very similar to all the fries I had in Belgium. Look at that. That was an insane burger, bro. Mm. Oh yeah. Look, when it comes to fries, like when you think about fries, fast food fries, nothing compares to having a beef tallow. Crispy, still a little doughy in the middle. So David's been here, food rating scale. If I could just rate Ted, he's a 10. He's a superstar. When we're talking about burgers, just the whole thing, I mean, I could feel the burger in his mouth. He's a burger philosopher. Move over, soccer piece. In terms of value and taste, I was saying value, you know, it's $12 for this burger. I think it's around like an 8.2, let's say, in terms of value. Pretty good value. In terms of taste, burger, this guy got a 10. This is one of my favorite burgers I ever had. I demolished it. I loved it. Wow. Ted. Hey, Ted. I love you, bro. You invented the best burger I ever had, dude. My teddy bear. Thank you so much, bro. Thank you so much. Wow. I'm gonna be dreaming about Oklahoma. By the way, there's a shark right over here. And producer Nate said, if I don't give you this list, the shark's gonna eat me. We did the 10 best burgers in Miami. Remember guys, there's like a hundred burger spots in Miami-Dade County. These are the 10 best. So hard. And remember, we're considering value and taste. So number one, gotta say it's the best burger because of the cost and how good it is. And that's Ted's burger. It is phenomenal. That Oklahoma burger will blow your mind. Number two, this is Daniel's. I know it's the most expensive burger on this list, but wow, it blew me away. It was so juicy. It was phenomenal. Every bite was like I was in burger heaven. Number three, proper sausages. Cheesy, onion. Oh, it's such a good burger. And the owner bought me an espresso after, so bribes work. Number four, Baby's Meat Counter. This is the burger that brings back all the nostalgia from my college years. You know, barbecue, the game on Sunday, but it's absolutely incredible. Must try. Number five, Cowie Burger. I love their smash burgers. I just love smash burgers in general, but I tried two different burgers. I love that Latin combo. It is a phenomenal burger. And it's right there in Wynwood. Number six, USBS. Their burger is so good, but their fives took the cake. Best fries in Miami by far. The burger is pretty damn good too. Number seven, Coney Burger. They have the Wagyu burger. They have the OG, which is a cross between a smash burger and a traditional burger with their owners are Venezuelans, so mi patria, I love you. And number eight, Vice Versa. And they're only open one day of the week for the burger. It's an amazing burger, so definitely be here for a Monday to eat that burger. Vice Versa, it's still amazing. And number nine, Apocalypse Barbecue. Their burgers are phenomenal, but this is the number one barbecue spot in Miami. The brisket, the ribs. I love the owner, Jeff. He's amazing. But you can't be the best at everything, Jeff, so I had to leave a little room in there for the rest of the people. But you have an amazing burger. And number 10, Chuggies. This is the most classic traditional burger on this list. It's still one of the best in Miami. Again, this is a top 10. But Chuggies, also right next door, you got Chugg's Diner. It's Cuban, it's delicious. Check them both out. Guys, I hope you enjoyed this burger tour. That's it.
