Summary
Highlights
The hosts arrive at Freddy's Frozen Custard and Burgers in Kansas City, noting its classic American diner feel. They place a diverse order including a double original burger, fries, a patty melt, onion rings, Smash Burger tacos, a Dirt n' Worms Concrete, and a Concrete Turtle.
They try the original double burger, noting the thin, crispy patties and generous mustard. They also sample a unique Dr. Pepper with coconut, with one host disliking it and the other enjoying it.
The hosts describe the 'cute' Smash Burger tacos as surprisingly large. They find the bottom part of the taco significantly better than the top. They praise the tater tots, highlighting their absence in UK fast food and their resemblance to mini hash browns.
The patty melt is described as fantastically good but very greasy and rich, preferred as a late-night indulgence. The shoestring fries are highly praised as incredible and revolutionary, with the fry sauce also receiving positive remarks.
The hosts briefly transition to an advertisement for Home Chef, emphasizing its simplicity and convenience for cooking, particularly for those who struggle in the kitchen. They cook a Peach Balsamic Salmon dish effortlessly.
They try the Real Cheesesteak Burger, finding it surprisingly good and even better than the patty melt, with some bacon for added flavor. They then review the onion rings, finding them impressive with a perfect crunch and well-cooked onion, unlike soggy alternatives.
The hosts try the cheese chili fries, initially confused by the concept of 'chili.' Despite the chili's appearance, the dish works due to the excellent thin fries, though the crispiness is lost under the chili.
They move on to the main event: frozen custard, named 'concrete' due to its thick consistency. They demonstrate its solidity by flipping it upside down without spilling. They try the Concrete Turtle, noting its pecans and rich custardy taste, and the Dirt 'N Worms which includes gummy worms.
The hosts then try cheese curds, which were recommended by a local. They find them impressively flexible, salty, and chewy, comparing them to halloumi but with a better batter. One host even suggests they might be superior to those at Culver's.
The hosts conclude by noting the lasting thickness of the custard, even after sitting for an extended period, leading to a discussion about Roman concrete. They recommend the double burger, fries, Turtle concrete, and cheese curds for future visits, advising a bib for the experience.
