Starting point is 00:00:27 of 10 dollars. Beye, I'm doing in a fashion responsible. The conditions apply. Biennue at board of Viarai. Embarked and profite. Embarked and relax. Ciroat. Bookine.
Starting point is 00:00:39 Oh, that also. And profite. Viarai, the voice that we love that we love. I asked the biggest YouTubers in the world their favorite foods, and in this video, I'm going to cook all of these foods and then ask them for their ratings. And we're going to start with Mr. Beast.
Starting point is 00:00:53 What is your favorite food? Chocolate. What else was I going to say? What if we turned the food? the Mr. Beast Panther into a beautiful chocolate sculpture. To make the actual chocolate, I'd normally start with a few nice fresh cacao pods, but instead I'm going to speed things up and use a pre-made chocolate bar. I've melted these down with a world-renowned chocolter who's going to help me make the sculpture. This head took about 14 hours to carve, but we thought we'd fast forward
Starting point is 00:01:14 through that part. First, we'll cover the whole head with white cocoa butter, as well as the lightning bolts and teeth. Next, we'll coat the head with blue cocoa butter, making sure to cover every possible area. While that hardens, we'll spray the base black, and then add a pink layer to the tongue and lightning bolts. Now to assemble a little bit of chocolate, and the eye goes in, and we freeze it in place. I got the cool job. Now we go with the tongue,
Starting point is 00:01:35 and for the finishing touches, we'll bring the panther to the dentist and give it a nice set of teeth. Look at that! Come out great! It's quite a handsome looking panther, isn't it? The side profile, that's Mr. Bees's logo. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:01:45 And I can't believe the whole thing's made of chocolate. We have at least 30 pounds of chocolate in here. Before we eat it, let's send Mr. Beast a picture. What's your favorite food? I'd say Chinese. I like special fried rice. Special fried rice. Orange chicken.
Starting point is 00:02:01 KSI is a pretty funny guy, and so is Uncle Roger, who just so happens to have a perfect special fried rice recipe. But first, we're going to be making our orange chicken a little bit different today. This here is a full case of orange prime. I'm going to reduce this all the way down into a powerful orange flavored syrup that we're going to use to make our orange chicken. The way this is going to go down is actually pretty simple. I'm going to empty all of this prime into this pot
Starting point is 00:02:23 where it'll boil down into a very powerful orange prime flavored syrup. While that's happening in the background, let's make our fried rice. We'll start with just a bit of Chinese sausage as well as some bacon. I'll stir this all up until it gets nice and crispy and then place this off to the side. Next, I'll go in with three cloves of garlic, a few red chilies, and once that gets nice and crispy, I'll crack in three eggs. Once it starts to make a crackling sound that sounds like this, we'll crumble in some leftover rice. Once I've mixed that around and it's well combined, it's time to add in the soy sauce down the side of our walk.
Starting point is 00:02:52 If your pan's hot enough and you do it right, it should foam up just like this. To finish it off, we'll add it. back in the sausage and bacon. This is what makes it a special fried rice. Then season it up with just a bit of white pepper and a nice sprinkle of MSG. Not right there, KSI, is a special fried rice filled with knowledge, strength, and integrity. Wow, that's really good. But we're not done yet. All of that orange prime has been reduced down to this. I'm going to add in just a bit of extra orange zest. That'll give it some really good flavor. Then a nice squeeze of orange juice and a light dusting of cornstarch. I think it's safe to say this is the first ever orange
Starting point is 00:03:23 chicken that'll be made with prime. It's strong. We'll fill up the custom takeout container with our special fried rice. Smells so good. And then once we're almost to the top, I'll do a nice layer of green onions. And then I've got some crispy orange chicken without the orange sauce on top. And to finish, we'll drizzle it with our prime orange chicken sauce and just a few sesame seeds. And now, let's open a fortune cooking. If you haven't already, subscribe to help us catch Gordon. Yo, Nick, what is up?
Starting point is 00:03:49 JJ, what do you think? But that ting looks so good. Prime orange sauce. I know how you done that? But you're making me hungry. That is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Butter, how can I get this? Where you are, mother?
Starting point is 00:04:04 What's your favorite food? Ice cream of all shapes and sizes love ice cream. Any flavor? Um, cake batter and brownie batter? Like the batters. Like a cookie dough. Yeah. Delicious, awesome.
Starting point is 00:04:16 Bat Pat is all about theories. For me, this begs a very simple question. Can we bake a cake using the cake batter that we get out of cake batter ice cream? Let's try. What I've done here? here has gotten a few giant containers of cake batter ice cream. And if you look here, you'll see it's been completely melted. First, I'll pour all of our melted ice cream into this giant bin, and then it's time to dig for a little bit of that cake batter. If this works, this strainer should leave us with
Starting point is 00:04:43 nice big chunks of cake batter. As I keep searching, I'll place them into this bowl until I have enough cake batter to make a cake. Oh, that's my best scoop so far. Once I've got enough cake batter to make a cake, I'll crack in one egg, a splash of oil, and just a bit of extra flour to help the cake batter wake up. And now it's time to whisk. It's clumpy, but otherwise it actually feels and looks like a perfect cake batter. To bake our cake, I'll give this a nice spray. And then in we go with our cake batter. And now that it's already, time to bake. 25 minutes later, we've got it. What I'll say is that it looks exactly what I would think a cake made out of cake batter from cake batter ice cream would look like. It looks kind of bad,
Starting point is 00:05:19 but in a good way. All that's left is to get a nice slice. Can we call this a cake? Matt Pat will be the judge. Nick, I have nothing but respect for your skills as a chef and nothing but disgust for that thing you call a cake. I have done some really awful things in the kitchen with my time on food theory, but this one probably takes the cake. Terrible pun for a terrible cake. Thanks, but no thanks. Better luck next time. Logan, can I answer your question? Yeah, yeah. What's your favorite food? It's so simple, dude. Really? Butter doodles? Butter noodles. That's so boring. And Logan Paul's not boring, so that's why I brought in one of the biggest food artists in the entire world. Nathan here can make art out of any food. He's made porches
Starting point is 00:05:59 out of pizzas and sauce, and you can do the same thing with Marmite on toast. Today we're going to turn boring buttered noodles into a masterpiece. But first, I'll need to make some fresh pasta. I'll start by salting my water and then ingo our noodles. When my pasta is cooked, I'll add some butter to a pan, and once that's melted down, I'll add in my pasta. And there it is, the easiest recipe in the entire world and Logan Paul's favorite food, buttered noodles.
Starting point is 00:06:21 My part is done, Nathan, perfect al dente. Well, I like to listen to music while I work. Is that okay? The kitchen's yours. This is the finish in touch, the final strand of Spaghetti. This is insane. You somehow have a way to make portraits with food that look even more realistic than a portrait that you take with a camera. That's a pretty big compliment. Thank you. It was very hard not to eat the noodles while making it though. Should we send a picture to Logan? Sure, please do.
Starting point is 00:06:55 Nathan Nick, I can't believe what you've done. I love buttered noodles and now I am buttered noodles. You guys are incredible. Thank you. Thank you. Marcus, I got a question. What's your favorite food? Sushi? Any specific type? I like dragon rolls. Which is why I'm standing behind this. Omakase counter. But since he's MKBHD, I'm going to be using all the tech I possibly can to make these sushi rolls, which is why I'm starting with this brand new pair of Apple Vision pros. These are completely new and after filming today, I'm going to take them off and send them to one of you random subscribers. Now in front of me, I have some sushi robots. This one here makes nice perfect sheets of rice, and this one here is a sushi cutter. To roll out the rice, I'll take off this top cover and dump in my sushi rice. It will then make a perfect sheet of sushi rice just like this. I could sit here and watch this sushi robot work all day long. At this point, I'll lay down my nory seaweed right over the top of that sushi rice, and then it's easy to just lift and pull it right away. I feel so powerful with my headset on. To build my sushi roll, I'll lay down my perfect sheet, then place down my shrimp tempura, some nice thinly sliced mango, some thinly sliced cucumber, and once it's all rolled up, I'll carefully place over my avocado.
Starting point is 00:08:02 It's time for the moment we've all been waiting for. The sushi cutting robot. Three, two, one. That was crazy! Now let's get to the this sushi plated. Before I place down my roll, I'll add some spicy mayo and eel sauce. And once it's in a nice pattern like this, it's time to place down my cut sushi roll. I'll add a bit of flying fish row to the top of each piece and finish it with a nice sprinkle of black sesame seeds. Wow, that is awesome. I'll send MKBHD a quick photo, and now we wait. What's your favorite food? Steve, rib eye. How would you cook it? Medium. How do you feel about that?
Starting point is 00:08:38 I order medium as well? Yes. Medium is always a good choice and so is a rib-eye, but I want to take things a step further. The other day, I was playing with my phase janga set. Why a bunch of gamers decided to sell a janga set, I have no idea. But I was playing an intense game of janga, all by myself anyways. In the end, I ended up losing, but then I had an idea. That's right. Wagyu jenga.
Starting point is 00:09:01 I know you wanted ribai, but why not some of the most beautiful meat in the entire world? Some perfectly marbled waggew. So I got the stacking. layer down then another then another then on and on until I'd made a beautiful Wagyu-Janga tower it's cool but I still don't feel like this is enough after all phase rug you may be short in stature but what you lack in height you make up for in everything you do you do it big and that's what I want to do with your meat that sounded wrong we'll start with three of our Wagyu jenga squares pressing
Starting point is 00:09:31 them down to make sure they're fully touching the surface of the pan and we get that beautiful golden brown sear and then we'll cook just a bit longer on the other side when it looks like this in the middle I know it's a perfect medium. To plate, I'll go down with my wagyu, using odd numbers as usual. Then I'll sprinkle each piece with just a touch of osmo such that it melts into the fat on the top of the waggew. And next, for a bit more salt, each piece will get a nice bit of caviar and to finish some nice edible 24-carat gold, with an extra gold sprinkle for good measure. Now all that's left is a quick photo for Phase Rock. Nick, how are you going to do that to me, man? I'm sitting here
Starting point is 00:10:03 all the way in San Diego and you send me that perfectly cooked steak, medium? The only way you're supposed to cook a steak, please ship that over to me ASAP. What's your favorite food? Hamburgers. What do you put on them? Cheese and ketchup only. It's the purest farm. Whenever I see Ryan, the first thing I think about is his one-star video series,
Starting point is 00:10:23 where he goes to one-star hotels, one-star activities, one-star restaurants. We're going to make him the most one-star burger possible by collecting our burger ingredients from a few one-star fast food restaurant locations. For the first of our three locations, Tommy said, this is, without question, the sogiest, wettest, bun I have ever seen. Let's go get a soggy bun. Check. For our second location, Stinger said, Melt the cheese? Too much work. Let's just leave it hard and rubbery. Melts? Apparently, this place doesn't. Thanks so much. And now for our third and final location, Leah says, how about not
Starting point is 00:10:56 shrinking everything until it's wafer thin? And also, a burger patty should not be crunchy. So dry. Thank you. Let's go home and make this burger. First up, we need our buns. Ryan, I don't know if I could have done any better for you here, buddy. Guys is one of my favorite places to get a burger, but this is soggy. And that is exactly what you want in a one star burger. Step one is complete. We have our butts. Next up, let's get our cheese.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Once again, it says melty, juicy. So if this cheese isn't melted, I'm gonna be even more shocked. But that's what the rating said. And bingo, that cheese is not melted at all. In fact, I actually think I can literally peel that right off our burger. And if the cheese is melted properly, that should not happen. And last but not least, the patty. Hoping for the driest patty imaginable here.
Starting point is 00:11:40 The cheese is actually melted on this one, so I can't pull it off. So it's just gonna have to be a double cheese burger for you, Ryan. I think that's a one star patty. I don't see much juice, much moisture coming off this thing. And now to assemble patty, unmelted cheese, a nice little square of ketchup because that's all Ryan wanted. And of course, our top soggy bun.
Starting point is 00:11:57 But Ryan, your burger would not be complete without this cute cowboy hat on top. Howdy, I hope you like it. Looks terrible. Is this some sort of prank? Is it some sort of joke? Plastic cowboy hat on a bird. on a burger, if that's what we're calling it,
Starting point is 00:12:09 that burger's rough Nick, it's scary. Five stars. Guy, I have a question. Yeah. What's your favorite food? Good baked bag and cheese. You make good bag of cheese. I make pretty good bag of cheese.
Starting point is 00:12:18 Literally, bro, I can tell him that it's gonna be good to please talk about it. So I've transformed my kitchen into a live cooking studio and I'm gonna be doing my first ever Twitch live stream, just like Kai does to make him his mac and cheese. There are wires and cameras everywhere. I have no idea what I'm doing with this. And with the click of a button,
Starting point is 00:12:34 we are now live on Twitch. I'm kind of nervous. My heart's beating faster than it normally does here. Let's get cooking. All right, I see the chat. There's a lot of comments. First of all, can anybody guess what I'm making? Mac and cheese, mac and cheese, mac and cheese.
Starting point is 00:12:44 Not a bad guess given we have the breadcrumbs, flour. We have some seasonings. Obviously, we have the cheese and we got the Mac. So great guesses. Oh, somebody just told me, Nick, it's in the title. As you can tell, I don't do these normally, so I can't see the title. I don't even know where it is. We have our water right here, salt to water, right?
Starting point is 00:13:01 With a generous pinch of salt. All right, our macaroni is cooking. Someone said add the cheese. No. We got to make a base for it first. I'm making what's called a rue right now, R-O-U-X. This is what's going to help us get a nice, thick, and creamy mac and cheese. Now I'm going to go in with a little bit of evaporated milk.
Starting point is 00:13:18 And what that is going to do is that what gives us a silky, smooth mac and cheese. A little bit of half-and-half, heavy cream, whatever you want to use here. Someone asked me, can I be a mod? I don't even know what that means, so I can't do that. Got a little clumpy. I got to stir faster and pay less attention to the chat. Can I save this? I'm going to turn my heat off, and I'm going to add some onion powder.
Starting point is 00:13:37 and garlic powder and then a little bit of mustard not too much I know some people don't like mustard but just trust me now it's time to come in with the cheese it's hard to look at a chat and make mac and cheese at the same time is that enough cheese everyone is that enough cheese can you guys tell me if this is enough cheese from the chat I got cheese on my phone this is why you shouldn't cook in live stream someone said Nick you can't mess up pasta you have Italian in your blood that's true oh it looks perfect it looks perfect that's off to the side somebody keeps saying Nick oil up and I don't know what that means I hope
Starting point is 00:14:05 That's not a bad thing. That's what we're looking for with a mac and cheese. Look at that. See this? Look what we did guys. Can you hear this? This looks so good. Should we put the bread crumbs first and then the cheese? Yeah, I'm gonna go breadcrumbs first and the cheese. Just a little bit. We don't want too many breadcrumbs. We just want a little bit. Oh This looks so good now. We'll torch it. It's getting nice and sizzly. Almost done. Almost done Kai. Bam. Look at that. Everyone in the chat. Can you give this a rating based on what you've seen based on what I put in it. All right, one guy just gave it a one of ten. That looks amazing. It smells. so good in this kitchen right now oh I mean I mean come on oh my gosh this smells good Mani will you come take a little nibble of this just come over here and take a little nibble it's gonna be hot though want me blow on it yeah you will give it a rating is it good don't and don't just say that don't just say it's really good I have a 9.8
Starting point is 00:14:55 at a time you're fired what's your favorite food a really really big pizza any toppings dude I feel like I want a little chicken on there some onions maybe dip it in some ranch oh yeah oh 100% Okay, okay, okay. I'll make a pizza, but we're not just gonna make any ordinary pizza. We're gonna make your pizza, Jester, in this coal-fired oven. Oh God, and listen to that crackle. That's what we're looking for.
Starting point is 00:15:26 Close it up, and now it's time to press out our dough. Now I'm not just making any ordinary pizza here. I'm obviously gonna have all the different toppings that he's asked for, but I'm gonna give this pizza a little twist. Because Jester's known for all his sports videos and especially basketball, using the toppings in a creative way, my goal is to make it look like a basketball. We'll start with a bit of sauce. Make sure we spread it around as even as possible.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Next, I'm gonna evenly spread around that chicken that you wanted, and I'm purposely hiding this under the cheese so that we can make it look like a basketball. And next, some onions that I've lightly sauteed, but same thing, I'm gonna keep them hidden under that cheese. And then perhaps the most important part of the pizza, some mozzarella cheese, layered evenly across our whole pizza, and now it's time for the pepperoni.
Starting point is 00:16:04 The pepperoni is what we'll start to give the pizza that color of a basketball. And I think this is probably the most pepperoni I've ever seen on the pizza. We'll finish it off with just a touch of olive oil, And into the oven it goes. It looks so lonely all the way back there. And just like that, it looks like our pizza is done.
Starting point is 00:16:20 Obviously, I had to make a nice custom pizza box, and I hope this fits. Oh! I think we can fit it if I rotate it. So to build this special basketball pizza, I need to line it with some olives. I know he didn't request olives on this pizza, but the thing is, this is what's going to allow me
Starting point is 00:16:35 to make this thing look like a basketball. And don't think I forgot about the buffalo and the ranch. We'll go buffalo across the pizza this way and ranch across the pizza. this way. And that right there, Jester, is your basketball pizza, aka a really dank pizza. I'm going to pack this thing up and send it to California. Nick, I have full confidence that that is a basketball. Bucket.
