Sam Zien celebrates the best way to eat food.
What turns chili and cheese into a burger? The bun. Carne asada into a taco? The tortilla. Grilled PB&J into a sandwich . . . well, you get it. It seems that every civilization on Earth has figured out that the best way to eat food is with your hands, using some form of bread as the vehicle from plate to mouth.
In Sam Zien’s hands, every burger, taco, tortilla, and sandwich is as cheesy, toasty, dripping-with-good-stuff as possible. Between the Buns is an ode to the handheld in every iteration from a man who knows how to stuff a perfect burrito. Zien has made cooking accessible to the masses—with 3 million subscribers and growing—through his YouTube show, Sam the Cooking Guy. Now that same charm has been translated to the page, complete with stunning photographs and 100 unapologetically carb-laden recipes that promise to satisfy.
There's something for everyone in this book. Beef, seafood, vegetables, hot dogs (yes, they get their own category), and so much more. You’d have to hate food not to love these recipes, from Korean Short Rib Tacos to Chipotle Sloppy Joes, Chorizo & Guacamole Torta to a Juicy Lucy Burger, Corn Brats to a Surf and Turf Burrito. Topped with homemade Bacon Onion Jam or Garlic Aioli, served with one of a dozen side dishes, including Buffalo Chicken Fries and Elote Corn Salad, this is what it’s all about.

In this pleasing follow-up to Recipes with Intentional Leftovers, YouTube chef Zien does away with utensils to offer an assemblage of literally handy recipes. Tacos filled with Nashville hot chicken or Korean short ribs prove that if it fits in a tortilla, then it's a taco (or at least "not not a taco"). Burgers come thick, thin, or stuffed; ground from beef, poultry, or seafood; and plated as bite-size sliders or two-handed whoppers such as the Luther burger—whose buns are replaced by a halved glazed doughnut. Sandwiches run the international and gastronomic gamut from a grilled PB&J with potato chips for extra crunch, to a Japanese chicken katsu on white bread, and a traditional grilled Cubano. A brief lesson on the art of tortilla folding precedes a selection of nine burritos, plus a fish stick burrito that Zien admits is probably the "dumbest recipe in this book," but is redeemed by way of a tasty salsa fresca and chipotle lime sour cream. Wiener fans will lunge for the souped up hot dogs that come smothered in mozzarella and mini pepperoni, or Cheese Whiz and chili, or bacon and mayo. Meanwhile, a sampling of sides, sauces, and frickles (fried pickles) round things out with flavorful flair. It all adds up to a finger-licking, family-friendly affair.
