00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,400
(Transcrito por TurboScribe.ai. Atualize para Ilimitado para remover esta mensagem.) Previously on Next Level Chefs...
2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:05,620
From 24 chefs, only 15 of you
3
00:00:05,620 --> 00:00:07,740
will make it into that incredible draught.
4
00:00:08,180 --> 00:00:08,660
Draught!
5
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:10,840
I'm deciding who I want on my team
6
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:12,960
and also who I'm giving away to Richard and Gordon.
7
00:00:13,580 --> 00:00:15,120
Five of you, pro chefs,
8
00:00:15,239 --> 00:00:18,240
have earned your way into that incredible draught.
9
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:18,740
Whoo!
10
00:00:20,080 --> 00:00:20,560
Draught!
11
00:00:21,940 --> 00:00:22,900
And tonight...
12
00:00:24,580 --> 00:00:27,060
Social media chefs, you can make a pretty plate,
13
00:00:27,260 --> 00:00:28,160
but can it taste good?
14
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:29,420
How are we making this viral?
15
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:31,400
How are we gonna get people to stop the stroll?
16
00:00:31,659 --> 00:00:33,200
Hot dogs, oh, boy.
17
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,800
What am I gonna do with this?
18
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:37,860
On the scene,
19
00:00:38,020 --> 00:00:39,460
it looks like someone's cut themselves.
20
00:00:39,660 --> 00:00:41,060
This is not how I envisioned it.
21
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:42,000
What is this?
22
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:42,980
That is kale.
23
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,000
It's not the best of salads, if you can't tell.
24
00:00:45,060 --> 00:00:46,240
Oh, my God!
25
00:01:00,010 --> 00:01:00,870
Let's go get it!
26
00:01:00,970 --> 00:01:02,010
One, two, three.
27
00:01:04,069 --> 00:01:06,170
Wow, I can't believe I'm here
28
00:01:06,170 --> 00:01:07,930
competing on Next Level Chef.
29
00:01:12,290 --> 00:01:16,050
Oh, man.
30
00:01:16,250 --> 00:01:17,910
Like, I just feel like I'm a kid, you know?
31
00:01:18,010 --> 00:01:19,630
And I'm just like...
32
00:01:20,010 --> 00:01:22,590
Look at this. I'm like the Statue of Liberty.
33
00:01:25,130 --> 00:01:25,850
Let's go!
34
00:01:28,910 --> 00:01:29,070
Whoo!
35
00:01:29,330 --> 00:01:30,650
There he is! There he is!
36
00:01:30,670 --> 00:01:31,810
There he is!
37
00:01:32,310 --> 00:01:33,770
Oh, my God, so exciting.
38
00:01:34,150 --> 00:01:36,410
So the basement, there's no sympathy down here.
39
00:01:36,710 --> 00:01:38,490
And I'll be honest, the majority of the equipment down here
40
00:01:38,490 --> 00:01:40,290
is older than you guys, okay?
41
00:01:40,530 --> 00:01:41,790
Maybe not me, Chef.
42
00:01:41,810 --> 00:01:42,690
I'll tell you.
43
00:01:43,210 --> 00:01:45,870
Now, you're all social media stars, right?
44
00:01:46,270 --> 00:01:48,170
And so you understand how to turn
45
00:01:48,170 --> 00:01:50,390
minimal ingredients into viral hits.
46
00:01:50,730 --> 00:01:52,190
Your first challenge today
47
00:01:52,190 --> 00:01:54,670
is taking corner store staples,
48
00:01:55,410 --> 00:01:56,490
prepackaged, canned,
49
00:01:56,850 --> 00:01:58,490
frozen, and transforming
50
00:01:58,490 --> 00:02:00,730
them into a Next Level dish.
51
00:02:00,950 --> 00:02:01,290
Got it.
52
00:02:01,450 --> 00:02:03,510
20 minutes is gonna go fast, okay?
53
00:02:03,830 --> 00:02:06,450
Remember, there's eight of you down here.
54
00:02:06,450 --> 00:02:08,630
Only seven of you are gonna make it out.
55
00:02:08,930 --> 00:02:10,470
I'm here to help you, okay?
56
00:02:10,950 --> 00:02:13,230
Now, Richard and Ayesha are watching very carefully.
57
00:02:13,650 --> 00:02:14,490
I'm also looking for your
58
00:02:14,490 --> 00:02:16,150
candidates to be on Team Ramsay,
59
00:02:16,270 --> 00:02:17,610
so give it your best shot.
60
00:02:17,890 --> 00:02:18,810
How are you feeling?
61
00:02:20,490 --> 00:02:21,570
I'm feeling something.
62
00:02:21,810 --> 00:02:22,410
Are you hungover?
63
00:02:23,730 --> 00:02:26,070
Not today, no. Not today.
64
00:02:26,290 --> 00:02:28,230
Okay, right. Line up, guys.
65
00:02:28,270 --> 00:02:28,670
Here we go.
66
00:02:29,450 --> 00:02:31,730
It's time to get cooking, guys, yes?
67
00:02:32,870 --> 00:02:35,230
The platform is moving.
68
00:02:35,910 --> 00:02:37,290
Corner store staples
69
00:02:37,290 --> 00:02:39,470
turn into prolific dishes.
70
00:02:39,970 --> 00:02:40,490
Pray for me.
71
00:02:40,730 --> 00:02:41,390
Here she comes.
72
00:02:43,690 --> 00:02:45,210
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go.
73
00:02:46,070 --> 00:02:47,590
Pork pieces, chicken wings.
74
00:02:48,170 --> 00:02:49,330
I saw the wings.
75
00:02:49,450 --> 00:02:51,610
I was like, oh, no, don't do wings.
76
00:02:51,630 --> 00:02:52,590
And I saw the rest of the stuff.
77
00:02:52,670 --> 00:02:53,710
I was like, you're doing wings.
78
00:02:55,390 --> 00:02:56,970
Hot dogs. Oh, boy.
79
00:02:57,890 --> 00:02:59,410
Looks like a 7-Eleven in here,
80
00:02:59,470 --> 00:02:59,810
doesn't it?
81
00:03:01,030 --> 00:03:02,190
Look at that.
82
00:03:02,190 --> 00:03:03,850
Slice apples. It's going.
83
00:03:04,830 --> 00:03:05,650
Well done.
84
00:03:06,950 --> 00:03:08,550
I was so close to garlic.
85
00:03:08,870 --> 00:03:10,630
Your 20 minutes starts now.
86
00:03:14,790 --> 00:03:16,370
Great knife skills.
87
00:03:19,450 --> 00:03:20,750
This guy, dude.
88
00:03:22,350 --> 00:03:23,650
Right, Landon, what did you grab?
89
00:03:24,070 --> 00:03:26,070
We got some turkey strips,
90
00:03:26,410 --> 00:03:27,330
some cheddar.
91
00:03:28,070 --> 00:03:29,050
I don't know what that is.
92
00:03:29,430 --> 00:03:29,810
Chickpeas.
93
00:03:30,090 --> 00:03:31,450
Okay, and pretzels.
94
00:03:31,770 --> 00:03:33,290
I think we're going to do some kind of meatball.
95
00:03:33,390 --> 00:03:35,030
We're going to chop those turkey strips up.
96
00:03:35,130 --> 00:03:36,310
Right, so like a turkey meatball.
97
00:03:36,530 --> 00:03:37,270
Pretty much, yeah.
98
00:03:37,530 --> 00:03:38,930
This should be in your wheelhouse,
99
00:03:39,070 --> 00:03:40,310
knowing what you've done before
100
00:03:40,310 --> 00:03:42,150
and how you got what you did today, right?
101
00:03:42,150 --> 00:03:44,270
The ingredients, the better I do.
102
00:03:45,350 --> 00:03:47,790
In the kitchen, I'm a complete catastrophe.
103
00:03:48,210 --> 00:03:50,570
I'm fat, hungover, and I want pasta.
104
00:03:51,250 --> 00:03:53,650
I drink, I make food, and post about it.
105
00:03:54,490 --> 00:03:54,930
Just...
106
00:03:56,130 --> 00:03:58,250
Everything your parents don't want you to be.
107
00:04:00,330 --> 00:04:02,830
I'm known for making food that is bad for you.
108
00:04:03,010 --> 00:04:04,130
The greasier, the better.
109
00:04:04,230 --> 00:04:05,250
The cheesier, the better.
110
00:04:05,750 --> 00:04:07,490
I'm doing pretty good on social media.
111
00:04:07,790 --> 00:04:09,770
I think I have 2 billion views at this point.
112
00:04:10,210 --> 00:04:11,250
That's a lot of damn views.
113
00:04:11,590 --> 00:04:13,430
This is good, literally.
114
00:04:14,050 --> 00:04:15,589
When I win the quarter of a million dollars,
115
00:04:15,769 --> 00:04:16,990
I'm buying a jet ski.
116
00:04:17,350 --> 00:04:18,430
That's for damn sure.
117
00:04:19,370 --> 00:04:19,649
Whoo!
118
00:04:19,649 --> 00:04:19,790
Ooh!
119
00:04:21,630 --> 00:04:22,630
Get my reception!
120
00:04:23,470 --> 00:04:23,850
Ah!
121
00:04:27,790 --> 00:04:28,630
Andy, how you feeling?
122
00:04:28,750 --> 00:04:30,010
Chef, let me tell you,
123
00:04:30,570 --> 00:04:32,770
this can is gonna be the end of me.
124
00:04:33,310 --> 00:04:34,330
The can? What did you grab?
125
00:04:34,450 --> 00:04:36,070
I've got a frozen whitefish here.
126
00:04:36,210 --> 00:04:38,110
I wanted to do kind of like a bacon,
127
00:04:38,550 --> 00:04:40,590
whitefish, and some creamed spinach.
128
00:04:40,990 --> 00:04:41,810
Be careful, Gordon.
129
00:04:41,970 --> 00:04:43,910
Those hands are worth millions and millions of dollars.
130
00:04:44,090 --> 00:04:45,290
Billions, maybe a billion dollars.
131
00:04:45,290 --> 00:04:45,830
Okay.
132
00:04:49,030 --> 00:04:49,630
What?
133
00:04:49,850 --> 00:04:50,390
Love that.
134
00:04:50,710 --> 00:04:51,730
Chef Ramsay!
135
00:04:53,210 --> 00:04:54,130
No notes.
136
00:04:54,670 --> 00:04:55,870
You used to be in the spotlight.
137
00:04:56,070 --> 00:04:57,670
I'm expecting you to shine down here, yes?
138
00:05:00,010 --> 00:05:03,330
Acting and music were always there simultaneously.
139
00:05:03,830 --> 00:05:05,070
I was in Pitch Perfect 3,
140
00:05:05,550 --> 00:05:06,390
Chicago Fire,
141
00:05:07,190 --> 00:05:08,390
and Upload,
142
00:05:08,750 --> 00:05:10,650
being the female lead of that show,
143
00:05:10,850 --> 00:05:12,030
that's been my big break.
144
00:05:12,030 --> 00:05:14,350
I also put my first album out
145
00:05:14,350 --> 00:05:15,390
in 2009,
146
00:05:15,910 --> 00:05:18,070
and that led me to work with Prince.
147
00:05:18,450 --> 00:05:20,310
Like, I think back on that chapter
148
00:05:20,310 --> 00:05:21,350
of my life,
149
00:05:21,970 --> 00:05:23,490
and I'm like, did that really happen?
150
00:05:24,790 --> 00:05:26,030
I've always dreamed
151
00:05:26,030 --> 00:05:26,850
of being a chef.
152
00:05:27,210 --> 00:05:30,330
The catalyst was the actor and writer strike.
153
00:05:30,650 --> 00:05:32,010
I found myself with all this time
154
00:05:32,010 --> 00:05:34,190
on my hands, and just that little
155
00:05:34,190 --> 00:05:35,650
idea, like, bubbled up again.
156
00:05:36,170 --> 00:05:37,490
I surprised myself.
157
00:05:37,750 --> 00:05:38,890
I said, I can do all things.
158
00:05:38,890 --> 00:05:40,890
So now, I'm a professional actor
159
00:05:40,890 --> 00:05:42,370
and a social media chef.
160
00:05:43,230 --> 00:05:44,670
I can't even believe I'm here.
161
00:05:46,070 --> 00:05:46,470
Christian.
162
00:05:46,850 --> 00:05:47,750
What'd you grab, young man?
163
00:05:47,850 --> 00:05:50,630
I got chicken wings. I'm gonna do an oatmeal crust wing.
164
00:05:51,110 --> 00:05:51,830
I love wings.
165
00:05:52,070 --> 00:05:53,050
We all love wings, right?
166
00:05:54,530 --> 00:05:56,890
I'm marinating my now little Asian-inspired marinade.
167
00:05:57,070 --> 00:05:57,290
Nice.
168
00:05:57,530 --> 00:05:59,170
And then I'm doing a little bit of extra texture,
169
00:05:59,290 --> 00:06:00,090
because who doesn't like crispy wings?
170
00:06:00,110 --> 00:06:02,550
Love that. I'm thinking about everyone on your YouTube channel
171
00:06:02,550 --> 00:06:03,710
loves wings as well, yes?
172
00:06:03,710 --> 00:06:05,650
I'm a big fan of First We Feast, and also
173
00:06:05,650 --> 00:06:07,870
the impact it's had for that younger generation
174
00:06:07,870 --> 00:06:09,250
is huge, right? Yes, chef.
175
00:06:09,350 --> 00:06:11,250
Don't forget, Richard and Aisha are watching.
176
00:06:11,410 --> 00:06:13,290
Oh, yes. Always watching.
177
00:06:13,810 --> 00:06:15,690
Christian got, I think, the golden ingredient
178
00:06:15,690 --> 00:06:17,910
down there, chicken wings. Wings all day long.
179
00:06:18,390 --> 00:06:19,850
Ooh, we almost lost that.
180
00:06:19,890 --> 00:06:20,890
We almost lost it.
181
00:06:21,490 --> 00:06:22,330
But I'm not losing it.
182
00:06:22,850 --> 00:06:25,610
Hannah, what did you grab? I grabbed hot dogs,
183
00:06:25,630 --> 00:06:27,330
and I also grabbed some pineapples.
184
00:06:27,390 --> 00:06:29,290
I'm gonna do, like, a pineapple, like, sriracha
185
00:06:29,290 --> 00:06:31,790
kind of glaze to go with the hot dogs
186
00:06:31,790 --> 00:06:33,110
and kind of stir-fry them. Love that.
187
00:06:33,210 --> 00:06:35,450
So bring back your Latin flavors, I hope.
188
00:06:35,490 --> 00:06:37,030
Yeah, a little bit, but I love stir-fry, too,
189
00:06:37,150 --> 00:06:38,870
so it's not out of my wheelhouse, either.
190
00:06:40,070 --> 00:06:41,290
When I graduated high school,
191
00:06:41,550 --> 00:06:43,350
I was like, I want to be a YouTuber.
192
00:06:44,250 --> 00:06:45,290
I loved makeup,
193
00:06:45,470 --> 00:06:47,810
and I wanted to be, like, a creator in the beauty space.
194
00:06:48,070 --> 00:06:49,490
I did that, creating these very
195
00:06:49,490 --> 00:06:50,770
extravagant looks, might I add.
196
00:06:51,030 --> 00:06:53,350
But I needed a big girl job, so I was like,
197
00:06:53,490 --> 00:06:55,330
what do Hispanic people love? Food!
198
00:06:55,750 --> 00:06:57,190
I just turned Dominican breakfast,
199
00:06:57,310 --> 00:06:59,230
into a sushi roll.
200
00:06:59,230 --> 00:07:01,550
So I just started cooking, like, my childhood recipes,
201
00:07:01,690 --> 00:07:03,570
like, boogie salo and chicken piccata.
202
00:07:03,850 --> 00:07:05,230
Today we're making biononos.
203
00:07:05,690 --> 00:07:06,930
I'm not professionally trained,
204
00:07:07,250 --> 00:07:09,330
but YouTube University teaches you
205
00:07:09,330 --> 00:07:10,190
a lot of things.
206
00:07:13,090 --> 00:07:15,430
I'm just trying to find a can opener for these
207
00:07:15,430 --> 00:07:17,250
carrots, and I'm gonna put them actually
208
00:07:17,250 --> 00:07:18,090
in with the hot dogs.
209
00:07:19,950 --> 00:07:21,010
I love that
210
00:07:21,010 --> 00:07:23,330
Gordon's role in the basement is just
211
00:07:23,330 --> 00:07:24,390
opening cans.
212
00:07:25,770 --> 00:07:27,390
This sauce is gonna be more like
213
00:07:27,390 --> 00:07:28,930
a relish, or like chutney.
214
00:07:29,130 --> 00:07:30,430
Just gotta get that sauce ready.
215
00:07:31,230 --> 00:07:32,610
There you go. Thank you so much.
216
00:07:32,750 --> 00:07:34,090
I just want to focus on the sauce.
217
00:07:34,250 --> 00:07:37,270
Just make sure that sauce is not too sweet.
218
00:07:37,450 --> 00:07:38,050
Thank you, chef.
219
00:07:39,590 --> 00:07:41,430
Miriam is working magic
220
00:07:41,430 --> 00:07:42,550
with those hot Cheetos.
221
00:07:43,070 --> 00:07:45,030
My mom actually used to show me how to make
222
00:07:45,030 --> 00:07:47,550
fried chicken like this. She'd put it in a brown paper
223
00:07:47,550 --> 00:07:49,250
bag and shake the bag up.
224
00:07:49,330 --> 00:07:50,970
Shake and bake. Exactly.
225
00:07:51,770 --> 00:07:52,990
Miriam, what did you grab?
226
00:07:53,250 --> 00:07:54,910
I've got the Cheetos,
227
00:07:54,910 --> 00:07:57,190
and I have some pork pieces.
228
00:07:57,490 --> 00:07:59,010
I'm thinking of just a Cheeto-crusted
229
00:07:59,390 --> 00:08:00,950
pork that I'm just gonna saute and make like
230
00:08:00,950 --> 00:08:02,470
a jalapeno sauce. Love that.
231
00:08:02,750 --> 00:08:04,850
Comfort food is your wheelhouse, right? Comfort food,
232
00:08:04,950 --> 00:08:06,670
soul food. Well, you've got a great protein.
233
00:08:06,890 --> 00:08:08,370
Yeah, I've got a really good protein. I love it.
234
00:08:08,630 --> 00:08:11,150
Make sure that stuff is seasoned beautifully, yes?
235
00:08:11,190 --> 00:08:11,450
Got it.
236
00:08:13,770 --> 00:08:14,990
Guys, seven minutes gone,
237
00:08:15,150 --> 00:08:16,970
13 minutes to go,
238
00:08:17,050 --> 00:08:17,370
yes?
239
00:08:18,610 --> 00:08:21,090
Right, Matt, what are you thinking? I got cubed steak,
240
00:08:21,150 --> 00:08:22,310
which I think was a pretty good grab.
241
00:08:22,310 --> 00:08:24,170
I've got two starches here,
242
00:08:24,450 --> 00:08:26,350
pre-cooked sweet potatoes,
243
00:08:26,610 --> 00:08:28,070
and then I've got some rice.
244
00:08:28,830 --> 00:08:30,370
Not exactly an open fire cook
245
00:08:30,370 --> 00:08:32,130
in West Virginia, is it? It is not. It is not.
246
00:08:33,390 --> 00:08:34,450
Being a dad
247
00:08:34,450 --> 00:08:35,850
has been my purpose.
248
00:08:37,090 --> 00:08:38,169
Family first.
249
00:08:38,770 --> 00:08:40,130
Back in my 20s,
250
00:08:40,150 --> 00:08:42,350
I went to culinary school, got into
251
00:08:42,350 --> 00:08:44,370
the corporate world, but when
252
00:08:44,370 --> 00:08:46,110
my wife became pregnant with my kids,
253
00:08:46,370 --> 00:08:48,170
I left my corporate job
254
00:08:48,170 --> 00:08:49,670
to start raising my family.
255
00:08:49,670 --> 00:08:51,270
For me,
256
00:08:51,450 --> 00:08:53,590
there's no greater joy
257
00:08:53,590 --> 00:08:54,550
than being a dad.
258
00:08:55,250 --> 00:08:57,810
I love to cook gourmet meals
259
00:08:57,810 --> 00:08:59,650
outside over an open fire.
260
00:09:00,150 --> 00:09:01,730
I was creating all these videos
261
00:09:01,730 --> 00:09:03,690
of me cooking outdoors just
262
00:09:03,690 --> 00:09:04,970
to have the memory of it.
263
00:09:05,310 --> 00:09:07,510
My daughter said, Dad, why don't you post those
264
00:09:07,510 --> 00:09:08,410
on social media?
265
00:09:09,230 --> 00:09:12,010
Boom. That's how Matt Dad came about.
266
00:09:12,370 --> 00:09:13,590
I want to
267
00:09:13,590 --> 00:09:15,590
show people you're never too old
268
00:09:15,590 --> 00:09:17,490
to chase your dreams. Just do it.
269
00:09:18,090 --> 00:09:19,790
And that's what I'm going to just cook.
270
00:09:21,090 --> 00:09:21,830
It's a tough
271
00:09:21,830 --> 00:09:23,610
day. Don't marinate it too long.
272
00:09:23,810 --> 00:09:25,590
You've got to cook it first as well, okay?
273
00:09:25,730 --> 00:09:26,970
So that starts tenderizing.
274
00:09:27,230 --> 00:09:27,770
Thanks, Chef.
275
00:09:31,090 --> 00:09:31,810
All right.
276
00:09:31,870 --> 00:09:33,630
Tim, how are you doing? We're on it. We're feeling good.
277
00:09:33,690 --> 00:09:35,610
About to crisp up these beef strips here.
278
00:09:35,950 --> 00:09:37,210
I think we're going to go ramen.
279
00:09:37,310 --> 00:09:38,950
I don't know quite how it's going to turn out yet.
280
00:09:39,230 --> 00:09:41,090
Something you make for your kids at home?
281
00:09:41,290 --> 00:09:42,310
Yeah, they love ramen.
282
00:09:43,030 --> 00:09:44,790
It happens quite frequently in the house.
283
00:09:44,790 --> 00:09:46,330
Sometimes I'll make it for them for lunch.
284
00:09:46,470 --> 00:09:47,870
So get some beef stock and we'll juice them down.
285
00:09:47,950 --> 00:09:50,170
Get some strength in there, yes? Smart. Thank you.
286
00:09:51,130 --> 00:09:52,390
Guys, this is the basement.
287
00:09:52,550 --> 00:09:54,490
Remember, canned foods, corn sauce,
288
00:09:54,610 --> 00:09:56,830
staples are not easy, right? Yes, Chef.
289
00:09:57,090 --> 00:09:58,690
It's obvious you are social media
290
00:09:58,690 --> 00:10:00,410
chefs and you're not used to being rushed,
291
00:10:00,470 --> 00:10:02,430
but I'm going to rush you. Let's go. Let's go.
292
00:10:02,530 --> 00:10:04,030
Right, we're down to the last two minutes, guys.
293
00:10:04,230 --> 00:10:05,470
We can start thinking about plating.
294
00:10:07,950 --> 00:10:08,490
These things
295
00:10:08,490 --> 00:10:09,850
got to get on the plate. Let's go.
296
00:10:11,390 --> 00:10:13,960
There we go.
297
00:10:14,540 --> 00:10:16,140
30 seconds to go, yes?
298
00:10:16,500 --> 00:10:18,020
Amazing. That's so nice.
299
00:10:18,740 --> 00:10:19,120
Wow.
300
00:10:20,060 --> 00:10:21,320
Bring it home, y'all.
301
00:10:21,700 --> 00:10:23,340
Five, four,
302
00:10:23,900 --> 00:10:25,260
three, two,
303
00:10:25,680 --> 00:10:27,080
one, and stop.
304
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,740
Well done. Hands in the air.
305
00:10:30,540 --> 00:10:31,300
Wow.
306
00:10:31,620 --> 00:10:32,420
Dang. Wow.
307
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:33,720
That went fast.
308
00:10:41,910 --> 00:10:42,670
Wow.
309
00:10:43,030 --> 00:10:43,650
Exciting.
310
00:10:43,650 --> 00:10:45,750
Oh, my gosh. I mean, it's crazy down here.
311
00:10:45,830 --> 00:10:47,710
It was crazy. And congrats,
312
00:10:47,830 --> 00:10:49,970
cooking for the first time in your careers with no filter.
313
00:10:50,350 --> 00:10:51,050
Well done.
314
00:10:51,450 --> 00:10:52,110
Come on.
315
00:10:53,370 --> 00:10:55,490
Right, should we start with
316
00:10:56,270 --> 00:10:57,690
Christian's oatmeal-crusted
317
00:10:57,690 --> 00:10:59,270
Asian-inspired wings?
318
00:11:01,310 --> 00:11:01,930
Not a dish
319
00:11:01,930 --> 00:11:03,110
that tastes like it was made.
320
00:11:03,230 --> 00:11:06,150
In the basement, the glaze is super flavorful.
321
00:11:06,590 --> 00:11:07,350
Listen, this is
322
00:11:07,350 --> 00:11:09,770
the way to highlight cornerstone ingredients
323
00:11:09,770 --> 00:11:11,010
that nobody wants.
324
00:11:11,010 --> 00:11:12,310
Wow, they're delicious.
325
00:11:12,730 --> 00:11:15,090
Smart grab. This is exactly what I would have grabbed
326
00:11:15,090 --> 00:11:16,070
if I was cooking in the basement.
327
00:11:16,350 --> 00:11:18,250
I have no notes. Great job.
328
00:11:19,790 --> 00:11:20,590
No notes?
329
00:11:20,830 --> 00:11:23,390
That is the ultimate compliment I can get from Chef Arrington.
330
00:11:24,150 --> 00:11:25,170
I can die happy.
331
00:11:25,710 --> 00:11:26,190
Next up,
332
00:11:27,270 --> 00:11:29,270
Miriam's cheeto-crusted pork.
333
00:11:29,530 --> 00:11:30,650
Half the cheetos are
334
00:11:30,650 --> 00:11:31,930
on the floor over there.
335
00:11:33,650 --> 00:11:34,730
Miriam, this is why,
336
00:11:34,890 --> 00:11:36,230
even though I'm a restaurant chef,
337
00:11:36,250 --> 00:11:37,970
why I spend a lot of time on social media,
338
00:11:37,970 --> 00:11:39,190
because sometimes you just find
339
00:11:39,190 --> 00:11:41,230
really, really cool, neat ideas, right?
340
00:11:41,290 --> 00:11:43,610
So marinating that in the bag itself,
341
00:11:43,730 --> 00:11:45,990
getting the flavor from the convenience store item,
342
00:11:46,090 --> 00:11:46,730
really, really smart.
343
00:11:47,130 --> 00:11:48,290
I'm a big hot cheeto girl.
344
00:11:48,450 --> 00:11:49,910
I'd have definitely grabbed that ingredient.
345
00:11:50,390 --> 00:11:53,230
Really smart use to make an aioli to kind of balance out
346
00:11:53,230 --> 00:11:54,270
the spiciness.
347
00:11:54,710 --> 00:11:57,170
However, they're both really spicy.
348
00:11:57,510 --> 00:11:58,830
It's still getting hotter.
349
00:12:00,430 --> 00:12:01,170
Next up,
350
00:12:01,550 --> 00:12:04,070
this is Henna's hot dog stir-fry
351
00:12:04,070 --> 00:12:05,490
with some carrots
352
00:12:05,490 --> 00:12:06,870
and mango relish.
353
00:12:07,870 --> 00:12:09,550
I think it is a little sweet.
354
00:12:09,610 --> 00:12:11,230
Even carrots themselves are pretty sweet,
355
00:12:11,310 --> 00:12:13,550
so that, the fruit, maybe the cola
356
00:12:13,550 --> 00:12:14,870
that's in it is a little too sweet.
357
00:12:15,230 --> 00:12:16,910
I love the caramelization on the hot dogs.
358
00:12:17,070 --> 00:12:18,270
It is very sweet, though.
359
00:12:18,770 --> 00:12:20,090
It needs some spice.
360
00:12:21,730 --> 00:12:22,470
Next up
361
00:12:22,470 --> 00:12:25,470
is Andy's pan-fried whitefish
362
00:12:25,470 --> 00:12:27,150
with a delicious cream spinach.
363
00:12:27,670 --> 00:12:28,570
The fish was frozen.
364
00:12:28,750 --> 00:12:30,310
They got defrosted, seasoned,
365
00:12:30,490 --> 00:12:32,470
and then cooked in a pan
366
00:12:32,470 --> 00:12:33,950
that was somewhat nonstick
367
00:12:33,950 --> 00:12:35,050
back in 1985.
368
00:12:36,510 --> 00:12:38,270
I mean, frozen fish sticks
369
00:12:38,270 --> 00:12:40,150
into a dish that looks like it could be
370
00:12:40,150 --> 00:12:41,510
in a restaurant is pretty impressive.
371
00:12:41,950 --> 00:12:44,410
Yeah, I think really smart use of that canned bacon.
372
00:12:44,530 --> 00:12:46,110
It brings some beautiful sort of salinity.
373
00:12:46,530 --> 00:12:47,950
The canned spinach, I would have liked to see
374
00:12:47,950 --> 00:12:49,950
transformed a little bit more, but really nice
375
00:12:49,950 --> 00:12:51,050
cook on the fish.
376
00:12:52,450 --> 00:12:54,050
Next up, Landon's
377
00:12:54,050 --> 00:12:56,190
turkey meatballs finished with a
378
00:12:56,190 --> 00:12:58,230
smashed potato. He got a can
379
00:12:58,230 --> 00:13:00,090
of cream soup and turned that into
380
00:13:00,090 --> 00:13:01,970
a sauce. Very smart, very clever.
381
00:13:03,410 --> 00:13:03,830
Whew.
382
00:13:04,210 --> 00:13:05,910
I hope I didn't make the worst thing,
383
00:13:06,130 --> 00:13:08,170
because I am by no means confident that I am
384
00:13:08,170 --> 00:13:09,250
getting back in that elevator.
385
00:13:09,630 --> 00:13:12,290
I love the use of pretzels, as you might use bread
386
00:13:12,290 --> 00:13:14,250
in a meatball. Tough grab, that one.
387
00:13:14,350 --> 00:13:16,090
Turkey, no fat, so very unforgiving.
388
00:13:16,330 --> 00:13:18,090
It could have done with a touch more sauce in there.
389
00:13:18,490 --> 00:13:19,610
Enrich those meatballs.
390
00:13:20,170 --> 00:13:20,870
But they are tasty.
391
00:13:21,770 --> 00:13:23,810
Next up, Mireya's
392
00:13:23,810 --> 00:13:26,390
canned prawns and satin and mustard sauce.
393
00:13:26,530 --> 00:13:27,750
Almost like a fritter.
394
00:13:28,430 --> 00:13:29,810
I love the use
395
00:13:29,810 --> 00:13:32,010
of corn and shrimp together. Pairs really nicely
396
00:13:32,010 --> 00:13:33,990
and really smart to do a fritter
397
00:13:33,990 --> 00:13:34,690
on the first cook.
398
00:13:38,370 --> 00:13:40,190
You give me an hour
399
00:13:40,190 --> 00:13:41,630
and I'm going to do something
400
00:13:41,630 --> 00:13:42,730
really spectacular.
401
00:13:43,550 --> 00:13:45,890
This is Matt's marinated beef chips
402
00:13:45,890 --> 00:13:47,690
with sweet potatoes and rice.
403
00:13:50,230 --> 00:13:51,790
The seasoning's great on
404
00:13:51,790 --> 00:13:53,970
the beef chips. Two starches
405
00:13:53,970 --> 00:13:55,870
together, you know, not something
406
00:13:55,870 --> 00:13:57,130
you see a lot.
407
00:13:57,330 --> 00:13:59,090
The dish looks like it could come together a little bit more.
408
00:13:59,330 --> 00:14:01,190
Just think about how you're adding some
409
00:14:01,910 --> 00:14:03,430
freshness to it, some vegetables.
410
00:14:03,710 --> 00:14:05,870
Tough grab. You have to be careful what you grab.
411
00:14:07,150 --> 00:14:09,710
Last up, Tim's beef strip ramen.
412
00:14:12,030 --> 00:14:13,550
You took the idea
413
00:14:13,550 --> 00:14:15,270
of ramen and elevated it.
414
00:14:15,350 --> 00:14:17,250
I really appreciate the stock. It's the way
415
00:14:17,250 --> 00:14:19,110
to transform something out of a bodega
416
00:14:19,110 --> 00:14:21,590
that's sitting on a shelf for who knows how long.
417
00:14:21,830 --> 00:14:23,850
This is comforting, it's soul-hugging.
418
00:14:23,850 --> 00:14:26,010
I can clearly see your vision brought to life.
419
00:14:26,710 --> 00:14:28,030
This is one of the most famous
420
00:14:28,030 --> 00:14:29,590
corner store ingredients, so
421
00:14:29,590 --> 00:14:31,970
ramen's sort of a clutch grab off of the platform
422
00:14:31,970 --> 00:14:34,070
and I think you know that egg yolks
423
00:14:34,070 --> 00:14:35,610
bring extra likes and followers.
424
00:14:36,050 --> 00:14:37,970
Absolutely. You have to remind yourselves
425
00:14:37,970 --> 00:14:39,230
your social media styles
426
00:14:39,810 --> 00:14:41,570
and you used to have everything set up.
427
00:14:41,750 --> 00:14:43,670
Nothing got set up for you. It was dysfunctional
428
00:14:43,670 --> 00:14:45,930
from the get-go and that dish is delicious.
429
00:14:46,490 --> 00:14:46,950
Thank you, chef.
430
00:14:48,410 --> 00:14:49,790
Right. Have a chat
431
00:14:49,790 --> 00:14:51,390
amongst yourselves. We need a very serious moment.
432
00:14:51,390 --> 00:14:52,330
Excuse us, please.
433
00:14:55,050 --> 00:14:57,030
Bring it in, bring it in.
434
00:14:57,330 --> 00:14:58,690
We talked about the wings, how good were they?
435
00:14:58,930 --> 00:15:01,730
Delicious. I can eat an entire plate of those wings.
436
00:15:01,930 --> 00:15:03,490
It was kismet that I had to make wings
437
00:15:03,490 --> 00:15:05,370
for that first round. I love
438
00:15:05,370 --> 00:15:07,270
that taken ramen. Beautiful.
439
00:15:07,650 --> 00:15:09,830
Everybody said, Tim, it's delicious.
440
00:15:10,250 --> 00:15:11,390
And I was about to like...
441
00:15:12,230 --> 00:15:12,530
I know.
442
00:15:12,950 --> 00:15:15,710
Man, it's beef chunks. Yeah, you said it right.
443
00:15:15,850 --> 00:15:17,590
It's beef chunks with nothing
444
00:15:17,590 --> 00:15:19,650
really else. The two starches,
445
00:15:19,650 --> 00:15:20,850
the sauce didn't really work.
446
00:15:22,470 --> 00:15:23,230
I did, yeah.
447
00:15:23,610 --> 00:15:25,310
I just missed the vegetable.
448
00:15:25,910 --> 00:15:27,530
And Henna's hot dogs. Yeah.
449
00:15:27,890 --> 00:15:29,530
Too sweet. Yeah, but when was the last time
450
00:15:29,530 --> 00:15:31,530
you saw carrots and hot dog together? First time.
451
00:15:31,890 --> 00:15:33,670
Yeah. I put a little bit too much
452
00:15:33,670 --> 00:15:34,670
coke in my hot dogs.
453
00:15:39,910 --> 00:15:40,890
Right. Richard
454
00:15:40,890 --> 00:15:42,970
and Nyasha and myself have come to a decision.
455
00:15:43,810 --> 00:15:44,890
First, three individuals
456
00:15:44,890 --> 00:15:46,670
that have earned a place
457
00:15:46,670 --> 00:15:47,930
on the next level,
458
00:15:48,670 --> 00:15:49,310
congratulations
459
00:15:49,310 --> 00:15:50,310
goes to
460
00:15:51,890 --> 00:15:53,850
Tim, Christian
461
00:15:54,650 --> 00:15:55,670
and Andy.
462
00:15:55,750 --> 00:15:57,450
Well done. Head to the elevator. Thank you, chef. Well done.
463
00:15:58,010 --> 00:15:58,930
Great job. Thank you, chef.
464
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:05,980
Joining those three,
465
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,520
congratulations goes to
466
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:10,400
Maria. Yes.
467
00:16:10,860 --> 00:16:12,880
Landon and Miriam.
468
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:13,540
Let's go.
469
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:17,160
Congratulations.
470
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:18,000
Well done.
471
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,940
Unfortunately, there's only one spot
472
00:16:23,940 --> 00:16:25,200
remaining in that elevator.
473
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:27,320
The person moving up,
474
00:16:27,940 --> 00:16:29,260
congratulations goes to
475
00:16:33,180 --> 00:16:35,380
the person moving up
476
00:16:35,380 --> 00:16:37,380
to the middle level,
477
00:16:38,460 --> 00:16:39,840
congratulations goes to
478
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:42,120
Matt.
479
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:43,360
Let's go.
480
00:16:45,220 --> 00:16:45,860
Thank you, chef.
481
00:16:46,300 --> 00:16:48,220
The very best of luck. Do not stop what you're doing.
482
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:49,920
I won't. Well done. Thank you.
483
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,200
I mean, I tried my best. You can't beat yourself up
484
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:53,920
about it. I definitely feel very
485
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,140
inspired, so yeah, I don't
486
00:16:56,140 --> 00:16:57,340
take it as a bad experience.
487
00:17:04,339 --> 00:17:05,560
Okay, everyone, let's go.
488
00:17:05,859 --> 00:17:07,359
Let's go. Welcome to the middle.
489
00:17:07,839 --> 00:17:09,520
Oh, yeah. All right, now listen, this is a
490
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,540
catering kitchen. You're not gonna be dealing
491
00:17:11,540 --> 00:17:13,520
with bent pens and rusty
492
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,700
spoons and some of the stuff you saw in the basement.
493
00:17:15,839 --> 00:17:17,640
Yes, chef. Yes, chef. All right, now listen,
494
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,500
as social media chefs, what you
495
00:17:19,500 --> 00:17:21,560
do best is making first
496
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,500
impressions. You want people to stop
497
00:17:23,500 --> 00:17:25,560
on your page, you want people to follow, you want
498
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,580
people to like, so this challenge is about
499
00:17:27,580 --> 00:17:29,540
big colors, bold ideas.
500
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,340
We're looking for you to impress us.
501
00:17:31,660 --> 00:17:33,280
Specifically, visually.
502
00:17:34,260 --> 00:17:35,320
I think I got this.
503
00:17:35,540 --> 00:17:37,620
Link, subscribe, click the notification buttons.
504
00:17:38,540 --> 00:17:39,840
You're gonna have 20 minutes.
505
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:41,680
Grab as much as you can.
506
00:17:41,740 --> 00:17:43,580
I want the platform to look like it's
507
00:17:43,580 --> 00:17:44,540
going out of business.
508
00:17:44,900 --> 00:17:47,620
All right, grab the elevator. Okay, you're ready for war.
509
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:48,440
Let's go.
510
00:17:50,660 --> 00:17:51,480
I hear it.
511
00:17:52,300 --> 00:17:53,360
All right, here it comes.
512
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,020
When the light goes green, it's go time.
513
00:17:58,600 --> 00:17:59,000
Go!
514
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,380
Let's go. Let's get over there. You got it.
515
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,780
You need a viral dish. Make sure you grab
516
00:18:03,780 --> 00:18:05,760
a protein. Grab big flavors.
517
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,460
There's beetroot juice over here that's
518
00:18:07,460 --> 00:18:09,520
colorful, gochujang that's super flavorful.
519
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,640
I try to grab gochujang, but freaking
520
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,460
Christian reaches over and
521
00:18:13,460 --> 00:18:15,600
rips it out of my hand. I'm not scared of
522
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,440
anyone, but I would not want to pick a fight
523
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,560
with Christian, that's for sure. Grab it or
524
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:20,800
regret it. Let's go.
525
00:18:21,820 --> 00:18:23,660
Everyone is towering over
526
00:18:23,660 --> 00:18:25,500
me. The next thing I see is the
527
00:18:25,500 --> 00:18:27,380
tilapia, so I grab it. And
528
00:18:27,380 --> 00:18:29,300
wasabi peas. Five seconds.
529
00:18:29,740 --> 00:18:31,520
Herbs, spices, something to make
530
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,200
a sauce. Let's go.
531
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,240
If you can reach it, it's yours. And at the
532
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:36,780
last second, I grab that beetroot juice.
533
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,220
What am I going to do
534
00:18:39,220 --> 00:18:41,280
with this? Okay, here we go, everyone.
535
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,260
Get ready. Your 20 minutes starts
536
00:18:43,260 --> 00:18:43,720
now.
537
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:50,400
Okay, Maria,
538
00:18:50,620 --> 00:18:52,560
so you got a piece of snapper.
539
00:18:52,700 --> 00:18:55,020
I've got serrano ham, miso,
540
00:18:55,140 --> 00:18:56,920
and I've got rice ready to cook.
541
00:18:56,940 --> 00:18:58,580
Okay, you know what you can do with this is you can
542
00:18:58,580 --> 00:19:00,560
wrap the serrano ham around the fish.
543
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,520
You can sear it. Wow, that's complicated.
544
00:19:03,300 --> 00:19:04,560
Vibrant colors. Yeah,
545
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,720
great grab there. Okay, you don't have to do it.
546
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:08,380
Just a suggestion. Okay, definitely.
547
00:19:09,980 --> 00:19:10,580
Andi, how are we
548
00:19:10,580 --> 00:19:12,560
doing? I'm just getting these sweet
549
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,520
potatoes chopped up. I'm going to do a sweet
550
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,600
potato puree. Okay. I've got this
551
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,320
chicken breast here that I'm going to saute.
552
00:19:18,780 --> 00:19:20,240
Okay, and get the chicken cooking.
553
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,560
I heard, chef. I heard, chef. Okay, let's
554
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:22,720
go.
555
00:19:24,380 --> 00:19:26,520
Chef, how are you? Okay. I have a zucchini
556
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,700
here. I have a tilapia and some wasabi peas.
557
00:19:28,740 --> 00:19:30,400
So we're a long way from the Flamin' Hot
558
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:31,120
Cheetos, right?
559
00:19:32,860 --> 00:19:33,920
Growing up for me,
560
00:19:34,060 --> 00:19:36,020
I'm a pastor's kid, and it was a very
561
00:19:36,020 --> 00:19:37,780
strict household. We couldn't go anywhere,
562
00:19:37,900 --> 00:19:40,000
couldn't do anything, so I needed
563
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,800
something to do with this energy that I have.
564
00:19:42,300 --> 00:19:43,780
Okay, beautiful people, let's go.
565
00:19:44,260 --> 00:19:45,940
I started with content creation
566
00:19:45,940 --> 00:19:48,200
and cooking. Today, Big Mama's
567
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,080
been craving sushi for a while. With content creation,
568
00:19:50,180 --> 00:19:52,240
I feel so free to let go and to be me.
569
00:19:53,700 --> 00:19:54,760
Look at sexy.
570
00:19:55,580 --> 00:19:57,920
My channel is based upon deep fried foods
571
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,040
and cheesy foods. We're here for a good time, baby.
572
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,460
I'm not here to watch blister off.
573
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:06,000
So
574
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,100
listen, for the tilapia, comfort food,
575
00:20:08,180 --> 00:20:10,060
right? Right? Okay, you love comfort food,
576
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,880
right? So let's treat this like
577
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:13,460
as a coating for the fish if you want.
578
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:15,200
Got it. Thanks, chef.
579
00:20:17,360 --> 00:20:18,120
Oh, got a beer
580
00:20:18,120 --> 00:20:20,100
for you, Landon. I'll be damned.
581
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:21,460
You did get a beer, didn't you?
582
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:22,460
Stout action.
583
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,140
All right, Tim, where are we going? You're already rolling
584
00:20:26,140 --> 00:20:27,740
out meatballs. We're going meatballs.
585
00:20:27,980 --> 00:20:29,440
What is the rest of the dish? Well,
586
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,700
that's the challenge here. I've got coconut milk,
587
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:33,640
chili oil. I like this.
588
00:20:33,700 --> 00:20:35,640
If you get the meatballs cooking and then work
589
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,260
on this coconut sauce, right?
590
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,120
Too big, the meatballs. 20 minutes
591
00:20:39,120 --> 00:20:41,080
so the pork doesn't dry out around the outside.
592
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:43,460
Take a half
593
00:20:43,460 --> 00:20:44,860
a breath. Take your time.
594
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:47,380
Tim, what are we doing?
595
00:20:47,980 --> 00:20:49,400
You're good? Trying to open my chili oil.
596
00:20:49,740 --> 00:20:51,580
Come on, Tim. I can open that for you.
597
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:52,880
Okay.
598
00:20:53,120 --> 00:20:55,400
You can't open a jar.
599
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:57,860
You are
600
00:20:57,860 --> 00:20:59,760
embarrassing yourself on national
601
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,240
television. I got it. I got it.
602
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:04,240
I'm a
603
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,020
stay-at-home dad. I don't touch the
604
00:21:06,020 --> 00:21:08,020
laundry. My wife does that, but I do the other
605
00:21:08,020 --> 00:21:09,580
stuff. Hey, girls. You hungry?
606
00:21:10,140 --> 00:21:11,980
I'm the one who does all the cooking in the house,
607
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,080
and so a year and a half ago, I started
608
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:15,880
posting food videos. Today,
609
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,900
we're making my daughter's breakfast. I'm a
610
00:21:17,900 --> 00:21:20,000
big kid at heart. I'm just a goofball.
611
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,000
This started out for fun,
612
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,600
and now it's what I do.
613
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,760
Principal called again, and the PTA
614
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,680
moms are pissed. She said my lunches are
615
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:29,100
causing a distraction.
616
00:21:29,500 --> 00:21:31,560
I like to embarrass my kids, but my daughters
617
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:33,420
have no problem critiquing me.
618
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:34,920
Tony, how do you feel about falafel?
619
00:21:36,660 --> 00:21:37,480
What have I
620
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,640
created? You're not cooking
621
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,680
out of your house, guys. There's no ring lamps
622
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,500
down here. You're laughing at that, Tim.
623
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,560
You know what that's about. Landon, how we
624
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,640
doing? You got some great ingredients here. Mustard
625
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,560
mackerel potatoes. You feel good with
626
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,580
seafood? I don't do much seafood.
627
00:21:51,580 --> 00:21:53,540
You're from California, aren't you, dude? Yeah,
628
00:21:53,620 --> 00:21:55,580
but I eat out. I grew up in
629
00:21:55,580 --> 00:21:57,300
Ohio. We were nowhere near an ocean.
630
00:21:57,660 --> 00:21:59,540
I don't like seafood. I don't make it.
631
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:01,740
Makes your house stink. I avoid it.
632
00:22:01,900 --> 00:22:03,580
So we're gonna sear these inside
633
00:22:03,580 --> 00:22:05,440
down. Yeah, I like that. This isn't
634
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,260
hangover food, dude. No, it is not. Okay, bro.
635
00:22:07,360 --> 00:22:08,880
Let's go, dude. Let's make it happen.
636
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,420
Listen, how are we making this viral? How are we gonna get
637
00:22:11,420 --> 00:22:12,760
people to stop the scroll?
638
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:14,960
How are we gonna get people to subscribe, okay?
639
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:16,600
We're gonna make it do what it do, baby.
640
00:22:17,340 --> 00:22:18,740
Pressure, pressure, pressure, pressure.
641
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:20,820
Pretty pretty. If you could pick
642
00:22:20,820 --> 00:22:22,800
one social media chef right now, who would it be?
643
00:22:23,140 --> 00:22:24,860
I mean, I definitely have my eye on Andy.
644
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:26,780
She's fire. I think I saw some stuff
645
00:22:26,780 --> 00:22:28,900
I can work with. Yeah, I would pick
646
00:22:28,900 --> 00:22:30,940
Christian. Look at the way he moves. Yeah, Christian
647
00:22:30,940 --> 00:22:32,020
can cook. It's incredible.
648
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:36,680
Filipinos not
649
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,340
necessarily are known for being spicy,
650
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,660
but I am. We've come to
651
00:22:40,660 --> 00:22:42,680
what I was born to do, fry some
652
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,780
chicken. I'm a social media chef and
653
00:22:44,780 --> 00:22:46,300
culinary producer for First We Feast.
654
00:22:46,300 --> 00:22:48,020
Christian, it's Sean here.
655
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,140
Your mission is to make the
656
00:22:50,140 --> 00:22:52,360
perfect wing. I make tons
657
00:22:52,360 --> 00:22:54,580
of different recipes and multiple techniques,
658
00:22:54,820 --> 00:22:56,220
but everything has to be spicy.
659
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:57,780
Spin, spin, toss.
660
00:22:58,260 --> 00:23:00,160
I want your eyes to roll back when you're eating
661
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:01,500
my food. Just roll back.
662
00:23:02,360 --> 00:23:03,740
Christian, what's up? What's up, what's up?
663
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,180
I'm making a steak. I'm making a fennel
664
00:23:06,180 --> 00:23:08,180
verblanc. Okay, all right, keep going. Go, go, go.
665
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:09,280
Cook
666
00:23:10,140 --> 00:23:10,540
perfectly.
667
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:14,200
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
668
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:15,820
Let's go, Andy. Let's move, let's move.
669
00:23:16,140 --> 00:23:18,160
She better hurry up, Andy, because that
670
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,160
chicken's going to be undercooked. Chef, I'm
671
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,100
having an issue with some beetroot.
672
00:23:22,140 --> 00:23:24,180
What am I doing? Chef Blaze, to the
673
00:23:24,180 --> 00:23:26,140
rescue, please. Just get on the stove
674
00:23:26,140 --> 00:23:28,140
and start reducing it. Maybe let's add a little
675
00:23:28,140 --> 00:23:30,040
bit of sugar to it, a little bit of red wine vinegar,
676
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,140
and you're making this beautiful beet sauce for it.
677
00:23:35,340 --> 00:23:36,160
Okay, Matt, what
678
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:37,900
are we making here? I've got these beautiful head-on
679
00:23:37,900 --> 00:23:40,280
prawns. Okay. I'm going to fry them.
680
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,040
You're frying them with a little bit of a batter
681
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:43,760
over here? I am, yes. Okay, let's go. Keep moving, okay?
682
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,980
Keep moving. Ten minutes down, ten to go.
683
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:48,060
Get off of there.
684
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,120
All right, landing. Just one minute
685
00:23:50,120 --> 00:23:52,040
on the other side, pull it out. Clean your station up.
686
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:53,980
It's a mess, yeah. The stations are
687
00:23:53,980 --> 00:23:55,780
a disaster. Gordon and I issue would
688
00:23:55,780 --> 00:23:57,620
absolutely lose it. Okay, let's go.
689
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,200
If my room looked like this when I was younger,
690
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:01,620
I would have gotten my ass beaten.
691
00:24:02,700 --> 00:24:03,780
Six minutes left.
692
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:04,900
Unbelievable.
693
00:24:06,460 --> 00:24:07,520
Where's the chicken, Andy?
694
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,880
Uh, it's still in the pan.
695
00:24:11,260 --> 00:24:12,200
That's undercooked,
696
00:24:12,260 --> 00:24:13,760
you know that. I'm terrified,
697
00:24:14,140 --> 00:24:15,840
because you can't eat it raw, like any
698
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,020
other meat you can get away
699
00:24:18,020 --> 00:24:19,960
with. Five minutes to bring it together.
700
00:24:20,380 --> 00:24:21,620
You got to take it right to the wire.
701
00:24:22,140 --> 00:24:23,720
I'm nervous about Andy's chicken.
702
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,700
Same. Um...
703
00:24:26,700 --> 00:24:27,840
So stressful.
704
00:24:28,500 --> 00:24:29,660
Four minutes left.
705
00:24:30,380 --> 00:24:31,540
Okay, let's go.
706
00:24:32,660 --> 00:24:34,160
Oh, what am I doing, what am I doing?
707
00:24:34,580 --> 00:24:35,540
Look, Andy's not happy.
708
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:37,900
I can confirm
709
00:24:37,900 --> 00:24:40,060
the chicken is cooked.
710
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:44,140
Hopefully it's not overcooked.
711
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,040
Now I know, I'm worried that it's overcooked.
712
00:24:46,860 --> 00:24:47,920
Two minutes left,
713
00:24:47,940 --> 00:24:48,760
so now start plating.
714
00:24:50,460 --> 00:24:51,820
They have to be colorful,
715
00:24:51,980 --> 00:24:54,180
they have to be bright, they have to be viral.
716
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,000
It has to be a dish that's gonna get
717
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:57,180
you to the top level, okay?
718
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,040
Yes, chef. Everyone likes cheese.
719
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:01,420
Five,
720
00:25:02,540 --> 00:25:03,460
four, three,
721
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:05,520
two, one.
722
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,220
Hands up, hands up.
723
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:08,400
That was something.
724
00:25:10,100 --> 00:25:10,580
Okay.
725
00:25:11,660 --> 00:25:12,140
Woo!
726
00:25:13,180 --> 00:25:15,440
Naisha, Gordon, we raised
727
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,560
levels, and I think we raised the level
728
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,320
of tension up here for sure. They look good.
729
00:25:20,100 --> 00:25:21,280
All right, well, let's get into it.
730
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,740
We have Christian's curried skirt steak
731
00:25:23,740 --> 00:25:25,420
with a gochujang butter sauce.
732
00:25:26,620 --> 00:25:27,480
The enokis and some
733
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,600
spinach. A little banana leaf
734
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:30,460
for the aesthetic there.
735
00:25:31,620 --> 00:25:32,540
That steak's cooked beautifully.
736
00:25:32,540 --> 00:25:34,260
It is a mouth-in-the-mouth moment.
737
00:25:34,420 --> 00:25:36,660
Just on the optics alone, I'd definitely stop scrolling
738
00:25:36,660 --> 00:25:38,560
and study that dish. Great job.
739
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:39,120
Thank you.
740
00:25:40,140 --> 00:25:42,560
Okay, next up, we have Mireya's
741
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,420
serrano ham wrapped snapper
742
00:25:44,420 --> 00:25:46,100
with rice and some charred tomatoes.
743
00:25:46,420 --> 00:25:48,820
I don't know if this one is as worthy of the gram,
744
00:25:48,940 --> 00:25:50,300
but sometimes you're just looking at a picture
745
00:25:50,300 --> 00:25:51,780
and you want to dig in and eat it, right?
746
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:53,340
That's good.
747
00:25:53,900 --> 00:25:56,140
Yeah, the serrano ham is a really great
748
00:25:56,140 --> 00:25:57,480
protection for the fish.
749
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,420
I love the crispy saltiness that serrano ham
750
00:26:00,420 --> 00:26:01,900
gives to the fish. It's exceptional.
751
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:03,440
Exceptional.
752
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,440
Exceptional. Thank you, Chef Ramsay.
753
00:26:06,860 --> 00:26:08,160
You've just...
754
00:26:08,980 --> 00:26:10,420
You've just made my...
755
00:26:11,500 --> 00:26:11,940
millennium.
756
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:14,740
Okay, moving on.
757
00:26:15,120 --> 00:26:16,100
This is Tim's
758
00:26:16,100 --> 00:26:18,160
pork meatballs with a coconut curry.
759
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,540
It's a shame because it looks vibrant.
760
00:26:20,780 --> 00:26:21,840
Meatball's a little bit dry.
761
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,440
Any breadcrumbs in there? I did.
762
00:26:23,820 --> 00:26:25,480
So that just gets drier and drier and drier,
763
00:26:25,580 --> 00:26:27,740
so you can't really taste the pork, which is a shame.
764
00:26:28,900 --> 00:26:29,820
Next up we have
765
00:26:29,820 --> 00:26:32,240
Matt's crispy shrimp with curry noodles.
766
00:26:32,540 --> 00:26:33,840
Wow. Is it tall enough
767
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:34,560
is the question.
768
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,220
It's eye-catching. And again,
769
00:26:37,380 --> 00:26:39,400
you've got to mind yourselves, guys. Not four assistants,
770
00:26:39,580 --> 00:26:41,260
not 18 ring lights. 20 minutes.
771
00:26:41,460 --> 00:26:42,040
It looks beautiful.
772
00:26:45,660 --> 00:26:47,180
Shrimp are cooked beautifully.
773
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:49,200
Yeah, I mean, the quick note here is
774
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,480
visually it's great. Just remember you're serving
775
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,240
a couple people, right? You don't need to make
776
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:54,660
a big, big meal all the time.
777
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:57,480
Okay, so this is Miriam's
778
00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:59,340
wasabi pea-crusted tilapia
779
00:26:59,340 --> 00:27:01,480
with beet sauce. Honestly, it looks like
780
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:02,380
someone's cut themselves.
781
00:27:03,100 --> 00:27:05,160
The beet sauce is actually really delicious.
782
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,480
Vibrant, earthy. It would pair nicely
783
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,080
with something rich like a venison
784
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,300
or a beef that can stand up to it.
785
00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:13,740
It really overpowers the delicate fish.
786
00:27:13,940 --> 00:27:15,380
The actual crust needs more seasoning.
787
00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:19,540
Okay, next up we have Landon's
788
00:27:19,540 --> 00:27:20,900
seared mackerel with
789
00:27:21,360 --> 00:27:23,800
purple potato salad and a mustard cream sauce.
790
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:25,620
Mackerel's cooked beautifully.
791
00:27:25,620 --> 00:27:27,300
Skin is nice and crispy.
792
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,600
Cheapest fish on the market, but you've elevated it.
793
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:29,900
Well done.
794
00:27:31,020 --> 00:27:33,380
Okay, last up, we have Andy's
795
00:27:33,380 --> 00:27:35,820
spiced and seared chicken breast with a sweet potato
796
00:27:35,820 --> 00:27:37,600
puree and a snap pea salad.
797
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:43,280
Puree, nailed beautifully.
798
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,560
But the chicken
799
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:46,560
should have gone on earlier.
800
00:27:47,220 --> 00:27:48,340
Chicken needs time to rest.
801
00:27:48,820 --> 00:27:50,900
So when you slice it like this, it's got all these string
802
00:27:51,360 --> 00:27:52,620
effects because it's dry.
803
00:27:53,360 --> 00:27:55,100
Give yourself more time
804
00:27:55,100 --> 00:27:56,280
with a chicken breast like that.
805
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,240
Yeah, what I love about this dish is it's very autumnal.
806
00:27:59,340 --> 00:28:01,220
You have the sweet potato. It's really silky.
807
00:28:01,300 --> 00:28:02,920
The pomegranate overall is tasty.
808
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:04,960
All right, everyone.
809
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,080
Have a chat with yourselves, and we'll get right back
810
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:07,480
to you, okay?
811
00:28:09,740 --> 00:28:10,140
Interesting.
812
00:28:12,140 --> 00:28:12,940
I love
813
00:28:12,940 --> 00:28:15,040
the tempura shrimp. My eye went directly
814
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:16,500
to that plate. Really beautiful.
815
00:28:17,060 --> 00:28:19,000
And the big letdown for me was the tilapia.
816
00:28:19,420 --> 00:28:20,980
This unseasoned crust on top
817
00:28:20,980 --> 00:28:23,000
and then the ground pork. Everything was
818
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:24,960
so dry. When the meatball's that big
819
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,020
and you fry it, it sucks up all of the
820
00:28:27,020 --> 00:28:27,860
juice. Put it in the sauce.
821
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:30,120
Shall we? Absolutely.
822
00:28:32,220 --> 00:28:33,080
Now the first
823
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,080
three people that have earned their way to cook
824
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:36,460
on the top level are
825
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:40,880
Matt, Landon,
826
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:42,300
and Mireya.
827
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,020
Head to the elevator. You've earned your
828
00:28:45,020 --> 00:28:45,760
way up. Congratulations.
829
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,920
Holy mackerel, we're still here.
830
00:28:49,700 --> 00:28:50,920
Okay, the next two people
831
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,900
that have earned their spot to cook on the
832
00:28:52,900 --> 00:28:54,160
top level are
833
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:56,920
Christian,
834
00:28:58,520 --> 00:28:59,000
and
835
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:00,820
Andy. Head to the elevator with your
836
00:29:00,820 --> 00:29:03,140
colleagues. I can't believe it!
837
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:04,380
I was doubting myself.
838
00:29:04,860 --> 00:29:05,600
I gotta stop that.
839
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:08,360
Tim, Miriam,
840
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,860
unfortunately only one of you are gonna
841
00:29:10,860 --> 00:29:12,340
make it to the top level. Yes, chef.
842
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,960
I keep thinking of my family. I keep thinking
843
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:16,980
of my daughters. I've given up so much
844
00:29:16,980 --> 00:29:18,880
to be here. To get eliminated in
845
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,900
the audition rounds would just be
846
00:29:20,900 --> 00:29:22,760
devastating. The person moving
847
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,820
to the next level is...
848
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:29,340
The person
849
00:29:29,340 --> 00:29:31,220
moving to the next level is...
850
00:29:35,860 --> 00:29:36,300
Tim.
851
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,460
Awesome. Good job.
852
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:39,500
Good job.
853
00:29:42,260 --> 00:29:44,360
Miriam, first of all, you had
854
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:45,720
me at Flaming Hot Cheetos.
855
00:29:46,340 --> 00:29:48,320
Your social media is an absolute joy
856
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,320
to watch, and you've been a joy in person, and we're gonna
857
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,380
keep watching you, okay? Thank you. It has definitely
858
00:29:52,380 --> 00:29:54,420
been an honor to meet all of you. It's been truly
859
00:29:54,420 --> 00:29:56,380
a blessing. This was a very
860
00:29:56,380 --> 00:29:58,500
tough audition. Love you!
