Today we ask the age old question, Will It Smash Burger? Let's talk about that. Good Mythical Morning, and Happy MLK Day. The best new smash burger ain't at your favorite burger stand. It is right here in our very own Mythical Kitchen. At least that's what we hope we'll be saying after trying the wild smash burger creations our Mythical Kitcheneers have dreamt us up, up. They dreamt us up. They've dreamt them up for us. We know what you mean. Today. It's time for Will It Smash Burger? Some grownups just don't want to grow up. They want to eat their Lunchables at a company lunch with other business people and not be judged. Perhaps this first smash burger creation will make those dreams come true. Behold, Smashable. Lily, what did you do? So this was inspired by six different Lunchables. You have a Lunchable meat smashed patty with turkey, ham, and pepperoni. A cheddar and American checkered slice of cheese with extra nacho cheese drizzled on top. Creamy Lunchable aioli, made from all the Lunchable sauces. Koolickles, and it's all sandwiched between two Lunchable pizza crust. Yeah, what we'll do. I thought this was a knife and I got excited. We'll cut each one. A little spatula. And then you can pick yours apart, 'cause I know you like to do that, but I would like to keep it intact. I love smash burgers. It may be my favorite dish. So, there's always a risk when you're eating one of your favorites on this show, that it gets ruined. Uh, gimme that thing back. Oh, you want the, what did you call this? A separator. Offset spatula. Offset spatula. Could you, could you, could you, could you, could you? There you go. Rest in peace. Take off. Thank you. I wanna get everything in one bite. Now I will say, fun fact, when they were naming Lunchables, they chose them from a list of other possible options that included. Crackerwiches. All right. You got the lacing. That's a check mark. If you can't get the laced edge, then it's, it's a non-starter. Wow. The sauce is special. Hmm. That aioli. Hmm. It is better than any Lunchable I've had. Turkey, ham, and pepperoni patty. Is it better than any smashburger I've had? Heck no. No. Um, but I like this little. So much better than Lunchables. Pickle. But it's so hard to be as good as a regular smashburger. Eh. But it's such an improvement on a regular Lunchable. You okay? I tasted the pickle on its own and I didn't love that. But together, it really worked. It was a melding of flavors and it made me feel like a kid and an adult at the same time, which is really one of the beautiful things about this show. It made me feel like I was eating a burger with something wrong with it. Okay. But I did feel like I was eating a burger. So that's pretty close to success. But you've had a Lunchable before. They're not great. Yeah, they're very boring. This, this was an improvement on it. I agree with that. Is that how we're judging this? Here's what I think, is it as good as a regular smash burger? No, we can't do that. We're never gonna get there. Can't do that. So is it a significant improvement upon what it was? I think in this case, maybe not every round, but in this case, that that works. Yeah. Lunchables, Will It Smash Burger? Yes. Now that it's January, it's time to get rid of all those gingerbread houses lying around. Mm-hmm. Personally. I like to smash 'em right in front of the crying gingerbread families that lived inside. Oh. But this year we're smashing them in a new way, introducing the smashing through the snow burger, smashing through the snow. Okay, Lily, this looks like the roof of a gingerbread house put on top of a burger. That's right. Is there more to it? No, that's, no, that's it. Of course, there's more to it. You have the. The Mythical Kitcheneers. Yeah, I can tell you a little more about it. Tell me more. Tell me more. Tell me more. This is a beef based burger patty mixed with actual men made from gingerbread. A mosaic gumdrop slice for cheese. A candy cane. A mosaic what? Mosaic gumdrop. Gumdrop slice of cheese. Yes, but there's no cheese in it. Now, you said men made from gingerbread. Yeah. I appreciate that. Thank you. And go on. Candy cane swirl burger sauce, and your classic brioche bun. And then that's where the roof comes in, on top. Well, this is where the roof goes out because I have to cut it. I'm sorry. You've seen it. You've enjoyed it. Get over it. Get a little saw-zaw action. Oh. Saw-zaw. Saw-zaw. Okay, here we go. Get a little bit of tip of your thumb in there. Mm-hmm. All right. He's breathing heavy. I just saw a cheese mosaic, I think. There we go. And then I'm just gonna pick this. It made quite a cross section, so the only thing that's not totally weird is the bun. Yeah, that's just a normal bun. Yeah, normal bun. No weirdness there. Oh, this is a mosaic. Yeah. There's a whole candy cane in there. Look at that. Link, reinforcing the roof. I suggest maybe removing that and sucking it later. There you go, I'm gonna suck you later. I'm going all the way. I'm gonna get both buns, both burger patties, and the roof all in one bite. I'm gonna try to get that little gum drop too. Mm. These are not typically the flavors I'm after. I mean, think of it as a complete dessert burger. Oh, hmm. Even though there's beef. That's not helping. Mm-hmm. Well, think of it as. Something that otherwise you'd just be throwing away. Think of it as, you decided to spend Christmas alone this year, and you got out of the shower and you slipped on the floor and you fell down and you could not get up, and your phone was in the other room. Mm-hmm. You started yelling really loudly, trying to get the attention of your neighbors, but then you realize, I live at the end of a cul-de-sac and everyone is gone for the holidays. You laid there for one day. Two days. Then you decided I'm gonna have to soil myself now. There's nothing stopping me from doing that. I don't know when somebody's gonna come check on me. You go all the way through New Year's Eve, at least you think. You're counting when it's light and when it's dark. But you've got really good shades in your bathroom, so you can't even really tell if it's night or day anymore. And then, finally, you basically have begun to heal a little bit and you push aside the large pile of waste that you have deposited next to your body and you crawl downstairs and you're like, I am so hungry. And this is the only thing available. Think of it like that and maybe you'll like it. That is such a helpful story. Yeah. Good. Good. Not quite. Oh, even that didn't do it. I'm thinking maybe I should have just called 911 when I got up. Uh, okay. Well, we're gonna say unfortunately. Or ordered a pizza. Gingerbread house, Will It Smash Burger? No. Smashing burgers is trendy now. Mm-hmm. But you know what's always been trendy? Smashing lobsters with a little mallet. Yeah, that's what you have to do, unfortunately. Which is why we're bringing the surf to the turf with this Red Lobster smash burger. It is the Crustacean. Red Lobster. Crushed-acean. 'Cause it's like smashed in. A crust. But crustacean. Smashed and crushed. Okay. Lily, what did you do? So this is a double, double smashburger in the order of surf, surf, turf, turf. Topped with a lemon and shrimp American cheese and herby compound butter burger sauce, and the iconic fluffy cheddar biscuits as your buns. There's the cheddar biscuits are the bun, and you've got lobster and beef. That's right. What? Whoa. And the cheese here. Go ahead and cut it. And then I'll. Man. I, I don't know if I want to do the lemon on it. You can do lemon on your side. Okay. Oh my goodness. Do you think that Beyonce would require a really good love making session in order to treat you to one of these? I think so, yeah. Is that a, that's a lyric or verse. What is the order of operation? Does she give him Red Lobster after he gives her what she wants? Or does taking her to Red Lobster give you the opportunity to get what you want from her? I don't know, Rhett. I'm not familiar. The, the, the first thing that you said. Mikayla's right behind me and she said yes. Oh, wow. When you said the first part. Oh wow. That's so thin. And that's all just pounded lobster. It's so soft. Oh my gosh. Do you want some, um. Please, I could you squeeze. Just on the lemon part, I mean just on the, okay. Okay. Alright, let's do this. I've got the lobster acclimation happening. Wow. The lobster is doing a lot of work here. It's still lemony. From the cheese, I believe. Yeah. Lemon zest. Um. Hmm. Look at all of that thin layers. The lobsters is overpowering the beef, but it's okay. I'm not saying it's a bad thing. Yeah, I feel like maybe we didn't even need the beef, you know? But it's, it's nice to say that there's beef. It's not called red beef, it's called Red Lobster. That's right. Yeah, so you're agreeing? Mm-hmm. Yeah. We're saying we don't, maybe we just need it. Just a lot. Lily's agreeing with me. But. Which I'm savoring for once. But I'll say that it's not like the beef is taken away from it. I'm just surprised that I'm not tasting the beef. And if you wrap most anything in a cheddar baked biscuit, you're gonna be good. This is, this is good. It's still strange. I will say that if I had the option of eating this or, just going to Red Lobster and then the next night going and getting a smashburger. If this was on the menu at Red Lobster. I would choose, I would choose B. Would you order it? Oh, oh, outta curiosity. Yeah. But. Once. If I went to Red Lobster alone and I went to the bathroom and then. Don't. It was, it was late. It was late, and they were closing and I, and I got, and I, and I peed, and then I started walking to the bathroom and I slipped and I fell. Yeah. And it was, they were going away for the weekend and, uh, I didn't know that. Going away for the weekend? And when this particular Red Lobster, it's in the mountains and I don't know, everybody skis. And so, they're leaving for the weekend and I fall on my phone and so my phone breaks, I got nothing and I'm like, crap, I'm gonna have to be in this Red Lobster, just like I was in my house last Christmas for a couple of weeks. But this time it's just the weekend. And then the janitor shows up on Monday morning and it's just when I'm about to soil myself and I was like, oh, oh, I've got my pants down and everything sideways. Stop, listen, don't bring you soil something into this. I'm just telling you this is what I would do. Just leave that out of it. We're eating. And then the guy, he's, he said so, oh, I'm sorry. I'm like, no, no, no. You shouldn't be. Sorry. I pull my pants up, I'm like, hey, help me out here. And he's like, oh sir. The only thing that we have to eat right now, this early, uh, morning hour, is a new promotional burger that we have is called the, uh, Red Lobster Smash Burger, that actually it's called the Crush-stacean. I think I might enjoy it. Alright. But in any other circumstance, unfortunately, I think I'm gonna have to say Red Lobster. Will It Smash Burger? No. No. Check it out. The January pin of the month, the new Dink It and Sink It pin. Look at this. So it's interacting. I got it over here, I'm showing it too. You can dink it and sink it right there on it. Dink it. Dink it. Dink it. Dink it. Dink it. Okay, this thing is only available for 24 hours and it's only available at Mythical.com. So get you some while it's the be-gettin. Begotten? Yep. All right, we're closing this one out with an old favorite. Not our favorite, but we hear you love how much we hate it. It's a Blood Smash Burger called the Smash and Gag. Lily, what did you. I'm so sorry for this. Yeah. You have a black pudding and beef fat smashed burger patty that has been soaked in liquid pork blood. Cheese is not cheese, it's a couple slices of congealed blood. Um, a beef liver pate, blood sauce and blood buns, which have been topped with sprinkles made of, you know what, blood. No. Yes, we got. What if, what if I just say no right now? What if it's good? It's probably good for you. I think I could, I think I could do it. If what? If you didn't have the straight up slices of blood. Gosh. That's a lot. That is a lot. You're asking a lot of us. Of course, you tried this. No. Oh, no. Gosh. I'm getting my bucket ready. Sorry. I know that may seem like some kind of mental defeat, but there's just something in my gullet that doesn't allow me to love it. I'll tell you, it looks good. I mean, the, the lattice on the, on the burger. You really nailed that. Yeah. Think about the nutrients. Think about the nutrients. Yeah. Even a crazy scenario about falling down on a bathroom floor and being stuck for days is not gonna do this. Yeah. So I'm not even gonna go into it. Yeah. Good. Drop it. I mean, anyway, I shouldn't have done it the second time. I mean, it just looks like Play-Doh, so that's what I'm gonna think this is. Or Red velvet. Oh, Play-Doh. Eh, it's so fun. Okay, this right here, just so you know, I'm doing every, I'm doing a slice of everything. I got two beefs. I've got the blood and I've got the buns and the sauce. Dink it and sink it. Lily. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It's just I get it in there and then my body's like, no, no, no, no, no. You don't need this. You don't need this. You don't want this. But you know what? Oh, you stinker. I really. You're such a stinker, Lily. I really feel like we should, um, I feel like we should, we shouldn't keep this experience to ourselves. Why don't you bring in the big. Oh yeah, oh yeah. Yeah. You know what this means? This means we get to bring somebody in. KG. KG. Get in here. We want, we want you to try this. KG. I was told to bring a chair 'cause I was gonna black out. How are you doing? How are you doing today. After what I just saw right now? Not good. Um, well, you know what? Maybe we made it look worse than it actually is. It sounded awful. Uh, this one right here, I believe this corner right here has your name on it. No one has bitten that. Ugh. And um, I'm just gonna, you know what, Link. Your bucket's bigger than mine if you wanna place it down there, just in case that I don't think she's gonna have to use it. Now what I'm gonna do, I, I'll, I'm so scared. I'm gonna put a sheath. I'm gonna put like a, a barrier here. I feel like someone, one should eat it with me, 'cause like. We just did. I know. Like, I don't wanna be the only one making gag noises. You know what? You don't need it. You probably don't even need it. Hey, here, here's what I can promise you. If you start making gag noises, we'll make gag noises just to cover for you. I already feel nauseous just sitting here. Oh, sorry. I, I, Hey, sorry. Sorry about him. Sorry about him. Still is like. That was inappropriate. The way he just. Still, just everywhere. My hand was like right here. He went to great lengths to put a barrier for you, and then he just spit on top of it. My mouth is so dry. So let me make a, it's just still, it's in there everywhere. Let me rebarrier that for you. Okay, here you go. So just, uh, you're just gonna take that. Maybe, maybe this one. That little corner right there. 'cause that's gonna give you, now, now. Maybe I should pull like a Link where I go, oh my God. If you get it down. Get it down. Yeah, if you get it down. I think you might. You like horror movies. Okay, but I don't wanna be in one. Hold on. Do you eat liver? No. Like, can you, can you swallow liver though? I don't know. I think you're gonna be fine. Do you need a blood transfusion? I do have low iron. Yeah, well, we are. Not anymore. There about to fix that. Yeah. It has to get into your stomach to, to get the iron though. Yeah. It smells like a burger. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Wait, I'm scared. No, you shouldn't be scared. It's gonna be good. Yep. Low iron. What if I just like threw up everywhere? Well just aim it in there and we'd have to cut that out. Uh, and don't take a little bite because you don't want people in the comment saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, do it. Whatever you're gonna say. They don't wanna chop out. Say it. Okay. No one wants to like take a little bite with me, like a cheers. And you can do it. Your breath is hot. Breath is hot. Okay. Yeah, I know. Yeah, I mean, it's. That's it. Oh. I need water to like wash it, like. My mouth is dry, but. But you didn't get, you didn't get anything? Didn't get anything. It was all over my lip. What a, let me see what you bit, you didn't even get. Yeah, she did. Cross section. She got it. She got it. So you said you're gonna gimme like a hundred bucks, is that what you said? You're not tasting the blood? Mm-hmm. Ah. Get outta here. Get outta here. I'll give you my Venmo later. We would've never asked you to do this if we would've known you would've made us look like this. You're welcome. You made us fools on our own show. Ah, rats. She likes blood and she didn't tell us. Well, that's why I asked. Is she like, she freaking vampire? Here's the thing, the reason I ask if she likes liver is because my experience with this is that some people got no problem with it. Huh? I don't know. Maybe if we got a blood transfusion from KG, we'd be able to do this. Is that how that works? Well, all we're saying is Blood, Will It Smash Burger? No. Unless you're KG. Woo!
