For the biggest episode of What's Eating Dan yet, we teamed up with Andrew Rea from Binging with Babish to learn how to make a giant stack of pancakes, inspired by the movie Uncle Buck with John Candy.
Special thanks to Autodesk, a research and development workspace in Boston, for constructing a genius robot to help us with this special project.

you need a second robot with an extruder that can evenly distribute the pancake batter. The giant turner needs slots in it to keep from creating a vacuum that doesn't release the pancake properly upon flipping. Just a few more iterations and I think you're set for commercial success to start shipping giant pancake makers worldwide.

Pancakes have been one of my favorite foods since I was a kid and I'm 60 now. I can eat pancakes anytime of the day or night. In my 20s when I was going out to clubs a lot, my friends and I would spend countless early mornings in diners and I would almost always have pancakes included in my 3-4 am breakfast. Great memories! In fact, I'm making banana pancakes today using a couple of very ripe bananas I have left. Happy Holidays!

@@RaymondHng, Exactly. Even if the metal surfaces look very smooth, there are lots of microscopic surface irregularities that causes air gaps between the two surfaces. Since air is a poor thermal conductor, it is better to fill the gaps with some kind of thermal transfer compound. It doesn't take much, just a very thin layer to fill the gaps when the two metals are in contact. Almost any material to fill the gaps will be better than air (bare metal). If you are concerned with food safety, you could probably just coat the mating surfaces in a thin layer of high-temp canola oil.

I've always used the pancake recipe from my grandma's cookbook that I inherited that she got back in the 1930s, and I've never added oil to the pan as there's already oil in the batter and my pancakes always came out perfect. A couple months ago I found a recipe for Japanese hotcakes (hottokeki) and served them up with fresh blueberry sauce. They were about 1" tall and tasted so good.
