    Good job everyone! Loved the sticky pork, loved the black bao bun, loved the idea of a sweet treatment. They all photographed very well, but that black bun with the tuna was a stunner! Can't call a winner without tasting, though.

    Ben's preferances would be the order I'd serve them. Tuna appy, pork main, fruit desert.

    These guys defo grew up in the 90s, Mike saying 'Izzy Wizzy let's gets busy', from the mid 90s kids show Wizadora, which my younger sisters loved (i'm a 1980 kid, or old fart now lol).

    We had a loooong weekend and just because we could we recreated all of them and the crispy pineapple bun absolutely was my favourite

    I’m loving going back through Sorted's archives today, now craving bao, well done guys!

    Ingredient wise I would definitely go for the pork belly with charred corn personally but the other two looked great too. All ingredients of these threeI know can be delicious. Why not have all three as a bao bun flight! Who doesn't love a good bao? A couple of tips – have a perforated was paper liner in your steamer (you can buy these to the size of your steamer). Proof your dough overnight if you can – makes it a little fluffier and more flavourful. Try a chive and/or kimchi and/or pork mince bun (the fully enclosed kind) with a crispy bottom. And make lots because everyone will want seconds, thirds. Benefit over a burger – the bun or bao enclosed bottom means that you don't lose the juices over your trousers. Just your fingers.

    you are making mao bun…. not bao

    it maybe just me but i dont give half a dam about how the food is presented i only care about flavor and taste

    Every last place for him is a first place feeling for me.

    The "most replayed" part is Barry lifting up Mike's shirt lmao

  14. @daggettbeaver828

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    The proof is in the bao movement.

  15. @Will-vo1qd

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    Does Mike really only have one ball? I swear they've mentioned it more than once? lmao

    Ultimate lobster challenge would be amazing

    Can anyone tell me where I can find these recipes?!

    When is Mike coming out with his own cardigan line because I dig his vibes.

    I’m disappointed in all of you for not naming this ‘The Ultimate Baottle’

    Fan from Australia here. I love Sorted and have been overdosing on all their videos. I keep wanting to watch this one and I am I am in no way a purist, but every time they say 'bao bun' instead of just bao, a little part of me dies on the inside …

  21. @pcmacintyre

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    When I think bao I think of buns with filling. I don't know what these are. What's next, "dumplings" that are mini tacos?

  22. @DeathMetalDerf

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    I really miss FridgeCam and the dad jokes… I still enjoy the show, but I do miss some of the old bits.

  23. @frenchxe2100

    Did Mike say he only has one ball?

  25. @patricksechowski2134

    I know I am late to the party but squid ink in Barry's bao instead of charcoal might have given it a little more pop while keeping the color.

  26. @Jacen32272

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    As someone that finds Cilantro/coriander tastes like soap, Barry's is an automatic third place at best.

    Well dome Pork verses well done fruit desert… I would probably go for the desert bao just for the novelties' sake. So, Mike first, Jamie second, Barry not in the running.

  27. @Fyreflier

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    so this is the Ultimate Bao-ttle…?

  28. @elliegilmartin4222

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    it’s 2021. they are still, painfully, normal.

  29. @Ana_DFM

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    Ok, I want to make Jamie's filling but not for bao. My venezuelan heart is screaming "PUT THAT INSIDE AN AREPA!"

  30. @faatman42

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    To quote sokka, "the ol SLICE N DICE"

    Favorite episode ever!

  32. @RaymondArias

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    5:24. Reminds me of Po (Kung Fu Panda). . . . =D He also loves Bao Buns and other dumplings.

  33. @hannuala-olla4302

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    How do you know dough is proven? It has passed peer review.

  34. @amina___6443

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    Can we all just take a moment to applause Jamie's cart wheel?

  35. @Pat14922

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    Pork for taste , tuna for freshness, sweet boa bun – marks for effort but bao dough and sweet filling does not sound great

  36. @kongxiawei

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    How amazing of the dish!

  37. @jenmalcom7004

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    I don't think I've seen a battle where Jamie has not incorporated meat, somehow! Lol! As for Barry's, I just don't know if I would want to eat the black bun….it does not look appetizing, to me.

  38. @marcjones1411

    December 24, 2023 at 12:32 am

    As far as I'm concerned a great bao bun should contain a) pulled pork in a BBQ sauce, b) pickled carrot sticks and c) finely sliced hamburger dill pickles. And now I'm dribbling.
