Tuesday night on Food Network *Chopped*
|
|
I have been watching this for the last few weeks. It's pretty good. There are 4 competitors, and they have to make 3 items...apetizer, entree, and dessert. They are on time constraints for each category, and their ingredients are revealed just before they begin cooking their dish. The ingredients are hidden in a basket. Some of the combinations are really wild. After each category, one of the competitors is "chopped".

It's not even close to Iron Chef. I've watched a bit of different episodes here and there, but nothing really draws me in. It's filler between commercials as far as I'm concerned.

I agree with Lynea. We have mentioned on some other thread that Ted Allen's stilted delivery kills the show. He is so much more personable that the "fake voice reading bad writing from a teleprompter it". And WHO puts together those terrible ingredients?? LOL!

Pretty much anything Ted Allen puts me off. He's got no personality on camera, ever.

I love the horrible ingrediants! It is what makes the show good imo. Makes for a good challenge for the chefs competing. Though I still don't get why vegan chefs compete. They always suck on the meat parts.

I agree with Saph!! Makes the show interesting. I felt sorry for the guy last week that didn't get his chicken cooked enough. The one coming on tomorrow looks like it's gonna have some weird stuff in the baskets.

Yeah the chicken dude from last week had that in the bag if it'd of cooked. I was bummed because I wanted to see what sort of dessert he'd make.

I think I don't like the constant chef interview segments. They're boring. The commentary and interviews on Iron Chef make it more enjoyable for me, that and the pace of Iron Chef seems more frantic.

I watch Iron Chef every week too. Iron Chef gives the 2 competitors the hour prepare their food. Chopped is kind of like URS with Guy Fierie. That Camilla chick won on the Better Burger contest yesterday. She won 50,000.000, and is on alot of competitions. I still haven't watched hell's kitchen. I want to see an episode of that to see if I like it.
Guy's new show starts Wed. night. I'm excited to see what it's like also.

We have radically different tastes, I think.
I detest Guy Fieri and any show he is on.

I guess so, I like most of the shows on Food Network. Guy has a cool car. He was toodling around the diners, drive ins, and dives with Duff from Ace of Cakes the other night. It was pretty funny.
The one I can take or leave watching is that chick with the short spikey blond hair in the mornings.
I like to watch Good Eats with Alton most of the time. Sometimes it's boring.

Ahhh....Anne Burell and Secrets of a Restaurant Chef. She's not very entertaining and a tad weird. My daughter and I watched once and laughed because she's a lot like one of my sisters! LOL
I don't watch Alton much (just got tired of it after so many years), but he has always had one of the most entertaining shows on Food Network.
I don't like all the competitions they've added at night, but I caught a few minutes of Will Work for Food and might give it a shot. Mostly, though, I like the actual cooking shows.
Shows I watch:
Tyler's Ultimate
Barefoot Contessa
30 Minute Meals
The Cooking Loft
Healthy Appetite with Ellie Krieger

Rachel is another one I can take or leave. I like to watch Paula Dean. The Barefoot Contessa is pretty good too.
No so cracked up on that Will Work For Food show.
I like to watch Alton because he has some neat gadgets.

Rachel is annoying, but I watch her because the stuff she makes is quick and during the workweek, dinner is all about quick. 
I'd watch Paula, but I would never make anything from her show (everything is so loaded in fat and calories), so it's a waste of time. I met her once, though, and she's a lovely lady.

That's not entirely true, n00ber. This season she's been focusing on "Back to the Basics" and has made a really great pot roast, lobster pot pie, etc. Simple recipes with the spices kicked up a notch.

this weeks was interesting
The guy gave up one of his eggs to another competitor. That probably cost him the win. She should have asked if they could split the winnings since it was so close. That would have been the noble thing to do. My op of course.

Heh - so true. I love her show and her recipes, but (until this season) she never made a simple recipe.
One of the reasons I also like Rachel. Well, I hate Rachel, but love her recipes - most are very easy and very yummy.
I make Rachel's stuff during the work week when I have limited time, and make Ina's (I think that's her name?) on the weekend.

I'm with ya on that. I don't think she'd of won without him giving up the egg. She should have offered him a little something. The judges DID say it was close. I felt horrible for the dude that didn't plate in time. That must've sucked!

I bet the guy who didn't have the time to plate would have won the whole thing if he had just been a little more organized. Wow that has to be nerve racking, and pretty scary tho. I also felt bad for him. Was cool that the judges at least tasted his food.

I thought it was interesting that one of the first episodes of Chopped had a guy on it who was one of the guests in the first part of this season's Top Chef (where they had the NYC applicants who didn't get picked) who was so cocky and was talking trash about the food... then he gets 3rd place out of 4 people on a Food Network show.

I've heard bacon dipped in chocolate is good. It's something I want to try but haven't yet. I have made bacon dredged in a brown sugar and cayenne mix and that was pretty yum. (sweet yet spicy)
