Babish Beats NYC's Best Burger Using Dry-Aged Trimmings and Caramelized Onion Jam

Babish takes on Peter Luger and Red Hook Tavern โ€” two of NYC's most legendary burgers โ€” in a timed cooking challenge. Using dry-aged beef scraps, homemade brioche buns, sodium citrate cheese sauce, and a balsamic-touched onion jam, he builds his own contender from scratch and submits it to a blind taste test. Spoiler: he wins.
