(upbeat music)
- We continue our tour
of Chicagoland breweries
in Tinley Park, and
more than a dozen of you
said we had to put the
pedal to the metal in our
Jeep Compass to head to
Soundgrowler, where they're
known for their beer,
burritos, and blasting music.
(rock music)
- Okay, Larry, when you
come in here the first thing
you hear, the music.
- There's no other
brewery around here that
plays the music that we do.
- How much does that music
influence the food, the beer?
- A lot of the beers
that we brew here
have a lot to do with it.
You'll find some other
descriptions in our
beers that are basically
influenced from doom metal, so.
Every day we come here
to work, it's like
it doesn't get any
cooler than this.
- I'm a huge metalhead.
I've been listening to
metal since I was a kid.
- Great food, great
people, even better beer.
- The beer is top-notch.
- You guys come in
here all the time.
I assume you're a member, right?
- Yes, we are.
We get discounts, we
get our own locker,
our own mug, and then shirts,
and it's just really fun.
- So what are we making today?
- Our California
burrito, it's a hit here.
Everybody loves it.
They're all family
recipes, all go
back to Guadalajara, Mexico.
- So maybe I'll
learn a thing or two
not only about making burritos
but metal music as well.
- [Lauren] What's your
favorite metal band?
- Black Sabbath.
- And what's your
favorite burrito?
- California burrito.
- Alright, well I'm cooking
with the right girl.
- Yes, you are.
- [Lauren] So where do we start?
- [Jackie] You want to start,
bring down the fries.
Going to drop some steak.
- [Lauren] Okay, so what's
in the steak right here.
- Onions, salt and that's it.
It's not a secret.
- No secrets here.
- No, everything
that we cook here
is coming from my mom,
from my own recipes
and a little dash of me.
- A little dash of Jackie.
- Yeah.
You're going to
put a little cheese
on top of the steak.
- I don't think we
need anything else,
can I just have
cheese and steak?
- [Jackie] We're going
to get a tortilla,
grab our fries, and
warm up the tortilla.
- Grab all this meat.
Oh, why do you think
Lauren can't do this?
Why do you think Mexican
food pairs so well with beer?
- I believe that when
you make something that you
put your heart on it,
nothing can be wrong.
- Jackie with the
jewels over here.
I love it.
- Go crazy with the sour cream.
We don't want a dry burrito.
- Ah.
And now that I've had
this burrito lesson,
I'm going to go head out
there and get my metal lesson.
(metal music)
- Look, I have my shirt,
I have my member's glass.
I feel like I've been
fully indoctrinated into
the Soundgrowler family.
- A lifer.
- And now I'm ready
for this burrito.
- Yep.
- Can we cheers real quick?
This burrito calls for
metal music I feel.
The fries in it are an
amazing, crunchy touch,
the meat is so good, and
this is a hefty burrito.
- It's not like the football
size burritos, but it's enough.
- It's enough that you
can have a few of these.
- Or a few of these.
Like I said, we have a culture.
All the beer pairs
perfect with our food.
Nobody's embarrassed to be like,
"I want three more tacos,"
throughout the night.
- There's no place
like Soundgrowler.
- No, there's not.
- Nothing like
this beer, either.
I love it.
Cheers.
- Thank you.
