"I'll have a Sonnen Style Burger" "How would you like it Sir?" "Undefeated, Undisputed, never lost a topping"

Saw the title and immediately clicked. Glad you addressed this, Chael. The undefeated and undisputed always brings the hard-hitting content we crave. Well done.

I am 38 years old. I live in Kansas City. I have never heard of this. Chael is right.

Tito uses red onions! 🚫🧅

When the biggest arms in west linn make you a peanut butter jelly and mayo sandwich you eat it no questions asked

Uncle Chael should be selling Burger Bombs in GTA 6

“A red onion is offensive!” Greatest quote ever from The Hamburglar 😸.

10 minutes on why Chael believes red onion has no place on a standard menu. Amazing, brilliant and unmatched in depth of burger thought.

I really appreciate Chael calling out Philly’s weak cheesesteak game

Kansas City hamburgers should have known better than to mess with the Bad Guy Chael P

THIS IS WHAT WE’RE HERE FOR CHAEL

Truly the ramblings of a mad man

Chael yapping about random shit will always be my favourite videos

Lettuce and tomato do not belong on a Philly Cheesesteak.

Unc is the only one that can talk about red onions for five minutes and make it completely enthralling. Still never lost a round, and never will.

you should bring this topic up on good guy/bad guy. dc is expert

Chael your philly cheesesteak take is wild.... 😂

This is the content I wait for

Chael: Wanderlei, I hope you're ready for mouthwatering hamburgers. Wanderlei: I thought we were having steamed clams. Chael: Oh no, I said 'steamed hams'. That's what I call hamburgers. Wanderlei: You call hamburgers 'steamed hams'? Chael: Yes! It's a regional dialect. Wanderlei: Uh-huh. Eh, what region? Chael: Uh...Kansas City? Wanderlei: Really? Well, I'm from Wichita and I've never heard anyone use the phrase 'steamed hams'. Chael: Oh, not in Wichita, no. It's a Topeka expression. Wanderlei: I see. [Wanderlei takes a bite out of a burger and chews it a little, while Chael sips his drink.] Wanderlei: You know, these hamburgers are quite similar to the ones they have at Burger King. Chael: Hohoho, no! Patented Chael Burgers. Old family recipe! Wanderlei: For steamed hams? Chael: Yes. Wanderlei: Yes, and you call them steamed hams, despite the fact they are obviously grilled? [opens one of the burgers and exposes the patty's grilled pattern to Chael] Chael: Y- Uh.. you know, the... One thing I should... excuse me for one second. Wanderlei: Of course. [Chael enters and leaves the kitchen swiftly upon seeing it is now on fire] Chael: [yawns] Well, that was wonderful. A good time was had by all. I'm pooped. Wanderlei: Yes, I should be-- [notices the intense light coming from the burning kitchen] good lord, what is happening in there?! Chael: Aurora Borealis? Wanderlei: Ah- Aurora Borealis?! At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, localized entirely within your kitchen?! Chael: Yes. Wanderlei: ...Wannanow? Chael: ...I can't let you get close.

Is Sonnen doing a Seinfeld impersonation? "What's the deal with Kansas City hamburgers?"

I don't remember a time I was listening to anything more attentive and curious than I just listened to Uncle Chael describing how a Kansas City style Hamburger (which I pretty surely will never have) is made... 😳

6:34 FAX. You gotta try the Chile Reyano.

How can you forget steamed, you know Krystal and White Castle?

Chael calls out Red Onions

Back to the roots

Chael talkin' "Burgers" is highly classified information. You'll never get that content with regular food reviewers on YT. Facts are facts!💯

I understand your frustration. Recently I was trying to buy some nachos from a stadium vendor, I won't mention who, but needless to say these were "stadium" style nachos and they didn't have lettuce or tomato. They didn't even have mayonnaise. What they had was Miracle Whip. Can you believe that? Guess I shouldn't have been surprised seeing that the nachos advertised were covered in red onions. And the cheese? You guessed it, blue.

These are my favorite chael videos

Lol, gotta love uncle Chael

Finally the video topics that I’m ACTUALLY here for. Not that other stuff. Undefeated Undisputed.

Who goes to a buffet to fill up on mashed potatoes and gravy? That's got to be the single worst tactical approach for anyone remotely interested in maximizing the value of their dollar.

This episode had nothing to do with fighting...And it was awesome!

Toppings are called toppings, because, according to Chael, they go on the bottom of the burger. Helpful Hint: if you like your toppings on the bottom of your burger, turn your sandwich upside-down to eat it.

These might be my favourite genre of Chael videos

Undefeated. Largest arms in West Linn 👊🏽

Stanich's burger on Freemont was absolutely the best burger EVER. That he got right.

this is why i subscribe

I only follow fights in passing these days but always regularly come back around to hear Uncle Chael weigh in and share his wisdom on topics like these. I cannot help but be enthralled by his stream of consciousness and his arguments even if the judges would disagree with them, they are still eloquently put forth. People go to school to learn rhetoric and this man just turns on a webcam.

Love how Uncle Chael brought up how he knows the secret to New York pizza and refused to elaborate. Truly a master at work cause he got me hooked. Please let us know what that one extra step is Uncle Chael

Thankyou Chael. I remember your Hamburger rules video. Ive watched it 5 times and I am fully aware that isnt normal.....I will watch it again

Maybe his best video

Man I love these random topic videos by Chael

Thank god I’ve been waiting so long for a hamburger discussion video that’s the best content of this channel

i have been waiting for a food video, more of these please uncle Chael !

This is the content we have been yearning for Chael!

Can we have a Chael food series?

Love your burger bits, big guy.😂

Thanks for keeping it real and shouting out Saint Louis, Missouri BBQ Chael

When building a burger… you place the top bun (the crown) upside down and the bottom bun (the heel) right side up… on a tray… run the tray through a broiler… then start with condiments on the crown… then tomato then lettuce… place the cooked patty on the heel… then cheese on the burger (you can also place a second slice of cheese first on the heel or double the cheese on the top)… then turn over the heel with burger and cheese and place on the crown… then place the upsidedown burger on a wax coated paper wrapper… and wrap the burger… turn it over so it is now right side up… and it’s ready for the bag (if take out)… you get the point. I worked at McDonald’s for 5 months in 1990… this simple process still works

I like red onions on a burger, and yet I agree with Uncle Chael about this. This is like if Sweet Potato fries came as the standard side, and they just asked if you wanted fries with it. It's not for everyone because it doesn't work that well with the standard toppings the way a white onion does. I like a burger Midwest Backyard style, Lettuce, tomato, Ketchup, Mustard, Pickle and a thick red onion. Maybe some BBQ sauce if they have the good stuff. If I go and try some place and I want "their burger", I am not expecting this. And if I were to order it this way and not like it, that's absolutely on me. White onion is the standard because almost everyone likes a burger a little different, and white onion works with everything. Any Restuarant using red onions as the standard is doing so because it looks good on camera, not because it's the right call flavor wise. They should absolutely not be taken seriously in the Burger world.

I immediately looked up Stanish in Portland and it has red onions

This was golden 🤣

Never been but I’ll listen.

Chael if you've ever taken the advice from a fan this is the it. When you go to Kansas City you get burgers at Town Topic off Broadway, that shit will change your life.

Chael your boundless knowledge about random stuff like this never ceases to amaze me. Also KC and STL barbecue are amongst the best, good taste.

Actively supporting Chanel Sonnen making a video on a UFC/MMA channel about a sandwich, and what constitutes it being on being mayonnaise 😂

I live in KC and didn’t know this was a thing

As a professional chef of 10 years, i love when chael educates us all on food so much

This is a shockingly great test for restaurants you’ve never been too. I applied this line of thinking and was actually able to outright remove some restaurants from my go to list entirely.

I believe Hardee's (aka Carl’s Jr. Restaurants LLC) Original Thickburger is the *honorable mention* burger featuring red onions.

So it's true. Chael can talk about literally anything and I just get invested. What a fucking talent.

I’m from KC, never heard about this

KANAS CITY HAMBURGERS 🤣🤣☠️☠️☠️

2:57 my 🐐

Great video uncle Chael 👏

I think what you mean is, In the realm of mixed martial arts, there's a vibrant discussion about which striking style reigns supreme. Some argue for the power and clinch work of Muay Thai, others for the precision and agility of Western Boxing, and some advocate for the speed and katas of Karate. Yet, aficionados of the sport agree that each style has its merits and contributes uniquely to the fabric of MMA. When we delve into grappling arts, the debate continues. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, with its emphasis on ground control and submissions, stands in contrast to the takedown and pinning techniques of Wrestling, and the dynamic throws of Judo. Each discipline offers a distinct pathway to victory, showcasing the diversity and richness of martial arts. Discussing the training methodologies in MMA, one can't help but admire the Kansas City style approach - a blend of rigorous striking drills, grappling transitions, and cardiovascular conditioning, tailored much like the precise cooking of a Kansas City style burger. This methodology emphasizes adaptability, resilience, and the harmonious integration of various fighting techniques. However, just as in the culinary world, where ingredients like red onion and blue cheese divide opinions, MMA sees debates over the use of certain techniques. Leg locks and spinning strikes, much like these contentious toppings, are either celebrated for their uniqueness or criticized for their deviation from the norm. Moreover, the core principles of MMA, akin to the role of water in making the perfect East Coast bagel, are indispensable. Balance, leverage, and timing are the essential ingredients that, when mastered, elevate a fighter's skill set, proving that the basics are often the secret to unmatched excellence in the ring. In sum, the diverse world of MMA, with its array of fighting styles, training methods, and foundational principles, mirrors the rich tapestry of culinary arts, where preference, tradition, and innovation continually intersect and evolve.

this video just started playing after another one I was watching. It didnt even register in my mind that I was listening to Chael Sonnen talking about burgers until about 5 mins in. 😂

There are a few other ways to make burgers. I don't remember the town, but they have metal burger brackets that are loaded and put into a custom made steam cooker from the 1950s. There are presses, and pressure cookers also used in various places. But without mayonnaise and a few other things. Any of them are just another burger.

Uncle Chael workin.

Im pretty sure fast food chains put the toppings on top of the beef patty

Red onions are good though.

Chaels treats! We demand it!

Burgers, bagels, sandwiches, pizzas, Chael always makes it make sense

I love the passion

I love it, and I’m here for it.

Thank you chael

Philly cheesesteaks have Cheese Whiz. I'm from NY, and I constantly get 💩 for putting mustard on my burger

This ended so suddenly I feel like this was only part 1

Chael bring back the cooking videos!

7:07 chael talking about a burger with red onions like it’s some contender in the division

Thank you my dear Uncle.... my burgers are now on a new level... you cease to amaze... Cheers dude

Here we go

Have you been to PDX sliders? They’re not far from you just up in sellwood

Sounds similar to Dyer's in Memphis, Tennessee but I don't think they put mayo.

Chael, you should have called me. I would have taken you to the best places in town...Best Burger, Best BBQ, Best Donuts, Best Fried Chicken...

The litmus test of Mexican food is ALWAYS the chimichanga. Chael said that to me IN PERSON after he uploaded this video, so his statement about "chile relleno" has been Abridged 🙏🙏

I've lived in the kansas city area for nearly 40 years and not for nothing, i wouldnt have the foggiest idea where to find a fried burger.

Dfq did that come from😂

Geno's and Pat's in philly may not have mayo etc but the top 5 to 10 places DO ABSOLUTELY have the toppings you mentioned.

Chael cant find where UFC rankings are, but has known the top 10 burgers in the country for 28 years😂

Culver’s is the only chain I know of that goes with a red onion as their standard.

Best Chael videos come from his best space of experties. Some say it's MMA, the rest KNOW its life experiences like this!

Chael, Huge fan! Why aren’t you talking about UFC Fight Night Atlantic City? I want to attend but there is no Buzz!?

Ive worked at many restaurants over my years on the west coast some very well established and high tier ones as a line cook hotside chef etc. I've never heard what chael is talking about But he's 100% correct.

Red onions have the most health benefits

I can’t wait to hear this.

Beef on the top of the lettuce and other toppings!? You’re definitely trollin

Best video on the internet

The Walla Walla Sweet is the BEST onion on the planet. Washington is known for the Apple and the Walla Walla Sweet.

Born and raised in KC. Never heard of this burger until now.
