What do you think hamburgers are REALLY about? They&#8217;re about the MEAT! Something fancy like that. Morning! Man\u2026 I\u2019m crazy hungover. So THIS right here is my ride! I had it in the shop getting some mods done last time we filmed. So I was driving a loaner that day. Here she is. Mind if I smoke real quick? Yesterday someone came in from San Francisco. Said they saw us on YouTube! And brought this gift! Got folks from Canada\u2026 Brazil too. We get loads of visitors from abroad Thanks to the Japanese Food Craftsman channel. And they bring these souvenirs. Got stuff from the Netherlands, too. I use them as decorations here. I\u2019m a huge fan of Negan from The Walking Dead. I didn&#8217;t buy this, I actually made it myself. Back in the day, I used to love the Kintetsu Buffaloes baseball team. So I got this bat signed by Tuffy Rhodes. A power hitter for the Buffaloes. But I loved Negan so much, I wanted to make that bat So I straight-up sanded off Tuffy\u2019s autograph, modded it, wrapped it in barbed wire! One of our employees is comin&#8217; in today. Just to mooch a free meal, I bet. Ayane might drop by, too. She dropped me a message like &#8220;Can I come over to grab a bite?&#8221; Think we&#8217;ll get any customers today? Who knows. Am I gonna be okay&#8230;? Camera&#8217;s still on, isn&#8217;t it? Gotta prep the burger patties And cut up the bacon we smoked yesterday So we&#8217;re gonna cut it up and get it ready to serve today. Oh yeah, we got more signatures on the wall! People from all different countries sign it. Even some celebs\u2026 and friends. Everyone just signs whatever they want. So we get more and more. Even the YouTuber MY From Channel Guardman They came after watching the JFC video about us. Pretty cool. Alright, time to prep. Always running around. Man, look at all that juice! We can crank out maybe 35\u201340 patties. Depending on how we trim and cut it up. This here\u2019s Choice grade. Should say it somewhere&#8230; I\u2019m never drinking again, man. I swear, never again. I say that but then when night comes I&#8217;m out drinking again. What&#8217;s wrong with me? This is my daily routine. Day after day. Surprisingly responsible, right? No matter how much I drink, the next day here I am doin&#8217; this! This\u2019s gonna be rough, man! Last time&#8230; Last time we filmed was like September or October, right? True story: Sales didn\u2019t just double. They went up by like 2.5 or 3 times, depending on the season, but yeah. Freakin&#8217; awesome. The number of foreign customers especially is through the roof! They see us on YouTube and come bringing souvenirs saying like \u201cThis is from my country!\u201d and stuff. So freakin&#8217; happy. This is US Choice beef, chuck roll. Same as before. I think this tat wasn&#8217;t finished last time we filmed. Amelia, my dog. My buddy&#8217;s a tattoo artist, he did it for me. And this one, Olivia. Oh, this one&#8217;s new. My second Doberman. I\u2019m gonna fill this whole arm with my family. Oh, and here. Here&#8217;s my wife\u2019s name: Alexandra. Not a punishment or anything! I did it on my own! Didn\u2019t screw up or nothin&#8217;, I swear. He said he was getting a new tat, but wouldn&#8217;t say what.  All like &#8220;Oh, it&#8217;s nothin&#8217;&#8230;&#8221; Like he wouldn&#8217;t tell me what. I thought he was gonna get something weird. Then he came home all like &#8220;here it is!&#8221; Morning! We met by chance in another community at a pizza place. He&#8217;s in the sauce-making business. Mexican salsa sauce. He made the perfect salsa just for our Coast-to-Coast burgers. We buy it wholesale from him. It&#8217;s super good, man. It&#8217;s authentic LA flavor from Anthony&#8217;s hometown. He makes it with this special LA-style which goes insanely well with our burgers. Super popular. Sells like hotcakes. The bacon burger&#8217;s my favorite. Their bacon burger with our salsa? Perfect combo. He ain&#8217;t scared of me. Oh, no. He&#8217;s super adorable. Ryouya-kun, Ryouya-chan. I&#8217;m from LA and everyone there&#8217;s got tattoos! So for me I look at Ryoya and I&#8217;m like ahh, it&#8217;s like being back in LA! So yeah, instant friends. I&#8217;m charming, right? Julia! Right on time. Oh, for real! Yeah, I said I said that story! For real? Why? Dunno. Just kept drinkin&#8217;! How many? How many shots yesterday? NINE!?! I can&#8217;t remember! And I was like, ah maybe maybe&#8230; Oh, sh*t! This is Julia, she works here. Once you finish the patties Go ahead and cut the bacon, OK? Thank you! Look at her out there havin&#8217; a smoke. Get that on camera. No intention of doin&#8217; any work, haha! Actually, there&#8217;s nothin&#8217; for her to do now. I gotta finish this first. She&#8217;s gotta use this here to cut the bacon. Julia Cut the bacon for me! After you finish your smoke. Gonna move the truck real quick. Rengoku-san! How&#8217;s that comin&#8217; along? Looks great today! All made in house. We buy pork from Spain Salt it, cure it Then rinse it off and dry it out. So in total it takes&#8230; Less than 2 weeks, about 1.5 weeks to finish the bacon. Oh, and finally we smoke it. It\u2019s crazy good. For real. After this, you can\u2019t go back to store-bought bacon. It\u2019s that good. Give her some liquid courage. Ryouya, I&#8217;ll pay! Thanks, cheers! Okay, I can do it! Poland No, no, beginner. He\u2019s the professional. I\u2019m number one around here, obviously! She&#8217;s number 4! 4!! It&#8217;s a joke, a joke! We\u2019re all number one! The best boss! The best boss!? Sometimes. Every day!! You got that right! He&#8217;s the same Ryoya as always. Always working so hard for us. That never changes. Huh? What&#8217;s that? You work hard for us every single day. Of course I do, man. Obviously! But of course! But man, it really is every single day, isn&#8217;t it? Yep. For real, man. No joke. You guys aren&#8217;t gonna take anything I say today seriously! The center, put up the flag. What did they say again? What\u2019d they say? That\u2019s SO American! Exactly the same! Hello! Layla, say hi. I\u2019m Layla! One burger and one avocado cheeseburger! No way, absolutely not. One cheese? One? And two Cokes. OK\uff01 Cut the lettuce and tomato later.

We\u2019re surrounded by good people, man. Good people attract good people. It&#8217;s like everyone who comes is all good vibes only. I just wanna see people share How cool we are How great the food tastes And simply enjoy the food. That&#8217;s what I want. I\u2019m really having fun, man. For real. It\u2019s the best. Doing what I love, taking a culture I love Stuff I think is cool And make a living out of it And my part-time staff, being a part of their lives It all makes me so insanely happy. That okay? Maybe end with somethin&#8217; cool like: What do you think hamburgers are REALLY about? They&#8217;re not about the bread. They&#8217;re about the MEAT! Something fancy like that. Some flashy line like that! Good evening. This is Sakoda from the Japanese Food Craftsman channel. I\u2019d like to talk about what we hope to accomplish through YouTube. Over the years, I\u2019ve met many craftsmen and chefs. Their skills, their attitude, and their spirit\u2014 I\u2019ve come to realize that they are truly world-class, something Japan can be proud of. But at the same time, the number of craftsmen are declining every year. When I learned this reality, I strongly felt the need to pass on their legacy to the next generation. That\u2019s why, through our videos and products, we want more people to discover the beauty of craftsmanship. However, there are challenges in bringing this vision to life. We are a small team. And our filming time is limited. There are many times we think, \u201cIf only we had a few more hours, we could\u2019ve made an even better video.\u201d We often feel that frustration deeply. We want to share the charm of these craftsmen more deeply and carefully. We also want to film lesser-known local shops and even take on filming overseas someday. That\u2019s why we started our YouTube Membership program. We\u2019ve also prepared various member benefits. If you resonate with our mission and want to support what we\u2019re doing,<br \/>\nwe\u2019d be truly grateful if you joined as a member. Your support directly connects to the future of craftsmanship. Please consider supporting us. Please support us! I\u2019m Abe from Yatai Keiji. Nice to meet you.<br \/>\nPlease continue supporting Japanese Food Craftsman as well!<br \/>\n<br \/>\nHis passion for his delicious burgers hasn&#8217;t gone unnoticed and his tasty burgers have gone viral, making his burger shop a must visit when traveling to Osaka. Through his hardwork and dedication to crafting delicious burgers seems to have paid off!
