Is Shake Shack better than Five Guys, according to these three guys? – Three guys? – Let’s talk about that. (gentle upbeat electronic music) – Good Mythical Morning! – And please welcome my dad, Charles. Give us one of these, Dad. (crew applauding) There it is. – Hey, guys. How y’all doing? – Oh, we’re great! You’re here! – You’re here, Dad. You feeling good? – Oh, yeah. Hey, if I’m around you two, you gotta feel good. – Hey, hey! – Look at that. Yeah. Yeah. Do you notice the resemblance? – No, I don’t. (laughing) I can’t see it at all. – Maybe if we let them look. (laughing) – No, we’re not related. (Charles laughing) Okay. So, you hungry? – Oh, yeah. I’m always hungry. – Okay, good. Me, too. – Maybe you are related. – Are you a good burger judger? – Yes, I think I could be a good burger judger. – Yeah. – Hold on. What are you doing to these burgers? (Charles and Rhett laughing) – All right, well, this is gonna be quite a matchup. You gotta help us figure this out ’cause this is Shake Shack, which beat In-N-Out the last time we did this, going up against Five Guys. You ready? – Yeah. – All right, it’s time for “Food Feuds Five Guys versus Shake Shack!” (upbeat rock music) – [Stevie] Gentlemen, in each round, you’re going to taste similar foods from Five Guys in Shake Shack. You’ll individually give each item a rating from one to 10. The restaurant with the most points at the end will be the winner and receives the chance to sponsor a future GMM episode. And first up, we’ve got cheeseburgers. On Rhett’s side is Five Guys cheeseburger for 11.79 and on Link’s is Shake Shack’s Shack Burger for 7.09. – Yeah, so Link, the one on top is gonna be yours because it has no tomatoes. Now, Charles- – Okay, good. – You don’t eat tomatoes? (crew laughing) – Yeah. Tell me about it. What’s going on with him? What’s wrong with him? – You don’t watch this show? (crew laughing) – Hey, listen, what’s wrong with him? – And I just put up all these tomatoes at home and he still don’t eat them. – Well, I mean, sell it. What’s so great about a good mater, Dad? – Oh, well, back home, a good mater sandwich with Duke’s mayonnaise is the bomb. – Oh, yeah. On some white bread. That’s a good burger. – Five Guys is great. Now, their buns don’t connect in the back like a Shake Shack. I’m fine with that. Dad? Dad, look. Dad is about like you. You both ate half the burger already. – Yeah, yeah, because we’re eating. – Just pace yourself, Dad. I don’t want you to- – You got to get a good taste. – Yeah. – To rate something. – What you judging it off of? You don’t even have a tomato on there. – I see what’s happening here. (crew laughing) Five Guys is a great burger and it’s highly customizable. – Oh, yeah. – They don’t let you make choices at other places? – That one’s got the mater. (Charles laughs) – So this actually has one patty on it, but I don’t know. I like the look of the bun and the feel of the bun a little bit better. – See, the bun has a hinge. Not that that matters, but I just wanna continue to point that out. – Well, you know, it’s gonna have to go ’cause Five Guys had sesame seed buns on them, so you got to… – And that gives this points for you? – Oh, yeah. – [Link] The bun is unprecedentedly soft. – Man, I thought this was gonna be easy, but- – It’s not. The meat is the same. Crap! This is so freaking tough. – I like the bun on Shake Shack better, but I actually, for reasons that I didn’t anticipate or I currently can’t understand, I like the meat a little bit better on this. – I one hundred percent agree with that experience. I’m giving them both an eight. – Well, I’m gonna give Five Guys a seven and Shake Shack an eight. – Okay. All right. I’m gonna give a Five Guys a 10. (crew gasps) (bell rings) (crew laughing) And then I’m gonna come over here to Shake Shack and I’m gonna give it a 10. I just think they are both beautifully crafted fast food burgers, untoppable. Name a fast food burger you’ve had better than either one of these from another fast food joint. See? – Not anywhere, probably. – See? – They are as about as good. I mean, I don’t blame you. I don’t blame you. I don’t know what that does, but, you know, add it up. (upbeat rock music) – [Stevie] Next up, on Rhett’s side, we have Five Guys’ hot dog for 8.39 and on Link’s, Shake Shack’s hot dog for 4.39. And I will point out that when you order Shake Shack’s hot dog online, you could only add cheese sauce. So that’s why the toppings are different on each dog. – Okay. Oh, Dad’s already gone in. Dad, I know how much you love a hot dog ’cause you said that was one of your favorite things in that other episode. It’s a split dog at Five Guys. – That’s a good hot dog. You know why they call it Five Guys? Because originally, when Janie and Jerry Murrell or Morell started it, they had four sons. And so they said Jerry and his sons, Jim, Matt, Chad, and Ben, were the Five Guys. And then two years later, they had a fifth son, Tyler. And then instead of calling it six guys, they were just like, I guess the sons are the Five Guys. – Okay. – So they’re just five sons and they’re all currently still involved in the business with over 1700 locations. – You know why they call it Shake Shack? Because it was started as a hot dog cart inside Madison Square Park in 2001 by restaurateur Danny Meyer. – A guy named Meyer started a hot dog thing and didn’t even see the irony in it? – Believe it or not. – You think he’s related? – So he didn’t add the cheese sauce here. Is the hot dog? The hot dog is split here, too. Man, they’re actually pretty different experiences here. – Mm-hmm. The dog itself is more of a red dog. – It’s got a little bit more of a pop to it. – [Link] And then let me get a little bit of this dog. – [Rhett] The Shake Shack. – Which one are you liking more, Dad? What’s your first experience telling you? – I’m liking the Five Guys hot dog better. – [Link] It’s a darker dog. – This is such a hard decision. I didn’t expect both of them to be so good. I’m gonna have just to isolate just wiener. – That’s what I’ve done. When I do that, the less poppy browner Five Guys dog is a superior taste, in my opinion. – Well. – And I’m not as much of a dog guy as you, so. – When I isolate the dog, I like Shake Shack a little bit better. I think it’s a better wiener. – Okay. All right. – This just comes down to who has the better wiener. – Yeah, yeah, yeah. – I’m giving Five Guys, I think, ’cause I think it’s a great dog. I’m giving it an eight. – What are you gonna give it? – I’m gonna give Five Guys a nine. – Oh, you loved it? – Yeah, I liked it. – I’m gonna go seven. – Okay. (bell dings) – I just, you know, hot dogs don’t wow me. – Yeah, that’s fine. You don’t have to apologize. He doesn’t like tomatoes. He doesn’t like hot dog. You sure he’s your son? – Yeah, he’s mine. – (laughs) In case you’re wondering. – More hot dogs and maters for you, Dad. – I’m giving the Shake Shack a nine. I think that this was an exquisite hot dog. – I’m gonna give it a five. They’re very limited in what you can put on it. Cheese, I mean, and maybe some ketchup. – It was all right, but I’m gonna give the Shake Shack a six. – Whoa. (bell dings) – Yeah, so you’re alone in thinking it’s a little bit better. – Okay. Wow. All right. That was a good round for Five Guys. (upbeat rock music) We love to taste things. You know who loves to taste things even more than us?

On Rhett’s side, we have the Five Guys regular fries for 6.59 and on Link’s is Shake Shack’s for 4.09. – Me and you. Okay. – This is a wonderful french fry. – What are they doing over there, Dad? Can you decipher how they’re… Do you think they’re taking a potato and cutting it lengthwise? – Oh, they’re taking a real potato and making french fries with them is what they’re doing. – They have a bunch of potato bags in their store, right? – That’s right. Stacked up. – I thought those were peanut bags. – No, they’re- – They got them, too. – But they really are trying to sell the idea that, hey, we’re making these very fresh. – [Link] A lot of skin. – They’re not just making them fresh. They’re then seasoning them properly and frying them properly, which is something that I can’t can’t say about like, In-N-Out, as an example. You know, we talk about how just their fries fall short. These fries… – But look at the brownness of some of these is kind of scary. It’s like- – To who? – What? – Okay, well. – What? – It just probably got cooked twice. – Yeah. Why is he scared of things? He’s scared of tomatoes, hot dogs, and brown fries. (Charles laughing) What happened to him? – I will say, though, eat a brown fry and tell me what you think of it. – It’s great! I like it. It’s got a little bit of a little burnt flavor to it. – Crunchy. – Still good. The brown fries are just as good as the other ones. I’m not afraid of it anymore. – Okay. – I’ve conquered my fear, Dad. – [Rhett] This is also a good fry. – These crinkle fries, they got a manufactured vibe to them. Are they bad? – They’re not bad. – No, they ain’t bad – But they’re not good. I gotta go back here. Good gosh. I either didn’t know or forgot how good Five Guys fries are. – I’m sorry, guys. This is a perfect fry. 10. – You’re going for a 10? – I don’t think you can make a better french fry than a Five Guys’ fry. – I’ll give it a nine unapologetically. – I mean, what could you do better? – I don’t know. I don’t know. Maybe put some truffle oil on it. – Them fries from Five Guys is some kind of good, so I’m going with Rhett. I’m gonna give them a 10. – Whoa! – We’re throwing tens out like it’s somebody’s birthday today. (crew laughing) What about over here? Because this is… – This is still a really legitimately great fry. Slight demerit for crinkle cut, but it’s still a good eight. It’s still a solid fry – But I mean, how hard would it be? It’s kind of like cooking eggs. How hard is it to screw up a egg? How hard is it to screw up a french fry? – That’s true. – Exactly. There’s not much magic happening here. – Yeah, so I’m gonna with an eight on them, too, for the Shake Shack. – Yeah, that’s right. Yeah. – I thought you were gonna go lower after you were building it up. – No, listen. We’re on the same page over here. – I have found myself going to Shake Shack looking forward to the burger and you just decided to not even order the fries. – Ouch. – And this has supported that. I’m gonna give them a five. And I don’t even care. They’re forgettable. They are totally forgettable. Go home. – We interrupt this episode of GMM to let you know that there is a new video dropping on the Rhett and Link channel this weekend. – This video is me trying to usher you into the realm of nap. – I don’t like this. I don’t like this. – Oh, my God! (screaming) – When I first started napping, it was so realistic, I had a wet dream. – Oh, okay. (water splashing) Come with me to the realm of nap. Where life is better. – I just want to take a decent nap, but I can’t fall asleep at work. (gentle classical music) (upbeat rock music) – [Stevie] And last up, of course, it’s dessert. We’ve got vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry milkshakes from each place. On Rhett’s side, Five Guys shakes come in at 6.59 each. And on Link’s, Shake shacks are 5.99 each. – Okay. So, once again, Five Guys more expensive. – Yeah, they’ve been more expensive across the board. – How are we gonna do this? – I’ll be red straw. Give me. Well, I’m gonna. We don’t have to do it at the same time. – Yeah, we do. You be green straw. I’ll be orange straw. (Charles laughs) Go Dad. (crew laughing) Now, look at each other while we’re doing it. (crew laughing) – You guys can have that. – That was a father-son moment that you weren’t invited to. Actually, you weren’t invited. Did you taste it or were you just lost in each other’s eyes? – Yeah, I was just locked up. – It’s a good shake, but I never get just a vanilla shake. – Yeah, me either. – Let’s go chocolate. (crew laughing) It’s solid. I don’t feel like I’m making a phone call yet or anything, you know? – No. – Calling a friend. Telling them to meet me there. – That one’s got bits of strawberry. I think these are all vanilla based from Five Guys, even the chocolate. – So what’s the difference with the… – Well they’re custard over here, not just ice cream and the chocolate is made from a chocolate custard, vanilla from a vanilla, and then the strawberry from a vanilla custard. – And the name of the restaurant is Shake Shake. – Shake Shack. – They’re leading with the shake. – It better be better. – You guys wanna stay consistent? – Yeah, let’s. (Charles groans) (Rhett chuckles) – You don’t care, Dad? Dad will eat after anybody, won’t you? Oh, it’s eggier. I mean, you can taste that it’s custard. – It’s less vanilla, though. – Yeah, it didn’t. – It’s thicker because of the custard. Let’s go to. – You can tell that’s more of a… – What? – Tell that’s got more vanilla. – It definitely has more vanilla, which is, I mean, the name of the shake. I’m red straw guy. Okay? Don’t- – Well, I’m orange straw guy. – Okay. – And I’m in the middle. (crew laughing) – There we go. – That’s got like, a chocolate syrup taste to it. – No, that’s not chocolate syrup. This is the chocolate syrup. – I know, but it tastes like a Hershey’s chocolate syrup is what it tastes like. – I know. It tastes good, man. The thickness, the custardy. – I like Five Guys better than Shack Shack. – I do, too. – It’s more of like a… It just tastes cheaper. – It tastes cheaper? – Oh, no. No, it don’t. I’m gonna pay a dollar more over here. – All right. Fine. We can disagree. – Here we go again. – Go green. (crew laughing) Is it my glasses that are poking you in the eye? Let’s go back to strawberry. – All three on the Five Guys’ side are better than the Shake Shack. I’m sorry. I didn’t think this was gonna happen. – [Link] The Five Guys- – [Rhett] That strawberry’s incredible. (crew laughing) – The strawberry is absolutely better over here at Five Guys. – It’s the biggest difference between the two, but I just happen to like all three of them better. – If we judging all three together, I like the Five Guys better. – Well, give them your score. – Okay, I’m going Five Guys shakes. Boy, those are great. Nine. – I’m giving them a nine, too. – Hey! Yeah. – I’m gonna give them a seven. And then over here, I mean, the strawberry is definitely better over there. I’m gonna give this one an eight, in spite of the strawberry deficiency. – I’m going seven on Shake Shack. I thought it was solid. – I’m going six on the Shake Shack because I didn’t think they hit the mark. – Dad, do you feel the weight of what you’re doing here? – No. No. – We are changing lives with these scores. – I’m a lot older than you all and I ain’t scared. (crew laughing) – (laughs) That’s the spirit. – (chuckles) I mean, unless they gonna come to South Carolina and find me. There ain’t even with Shake Shack there. (group laughing) – That’s right. – All right, so let’s get to the results. – Okay, so there you have it. In the end, Five Guys actually wins by a wide margin. 103 to 88. I thought this would be closer. I thought that Shake Shack was gonna take this home! – I know. Now, you know what? I’m a Five Guys guy and I didn’t realize it. – All right, Five Guys, all five of you, whichever one needs to hear this. Jim, Matt, Chad, Ben, and Tyler. Okay? Do you hear me? Do you hear us? Just sponsor a freaking episode of Good Mythical Morning. How hard is it to do? – We’re gonna throw in “Dispatches from Myrtle Beach” as a bonus. (crew laughing) – Yes! Come on, guys! Get with the program! – Yeah. Yeah, that reminds me. Make sure to listen to Dad’s podcast with me, “Dispatches from Myrtle Beach.” Thanks for subscribing and clicking that bell. – Now, Charles, you say, “You know what time it is.” – You know what time it is? (Rhett and crew laughing) – Kenny and Joanne here. We’re vacationing in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. – We’re looking for Link’s dad. Hey, Charles. Sorry. We’ll keep looking, but for now… – [Both] It’s time to spin the Wheel of Mythicality. (Charles and Rhett laughing) – He’s here! He can’t be there. He’s here! He can’t be in two places at once. That was the best Mythical wheel video we’ve ever had. Whatever we call that thing.
