Alton said he's not a chef because a chef is a job position. He is a cook.

Yes, and as a cook he knows how to cook pretty well.

I recently saw the sushi, french onion soup and pot roast and realized how bad they were. Some of those episodes don't hold up. How about his web series where he's so autistic he wants to cook a grill cheese sandwich on the grill because it's not a real grill cheese if it's not cooked on a grill.

>> No.5476363

>>5476356
to be fair
most grilled cheeses are just panfried
you have a point, I actively avoided his sushi episode because honestly, what would he know
but he does know how to make quick fixes that appeal to the average american who doesn't own a whole bunch of kitchen utensils

>Wow you Americans are thick as fuck lol do you also watch stuff like how to make a brew

>OR, you can put a couple of slices of Kraft American between two slices of buttered white bread, brown it in a pan for a few minutes as the cheese melts, and have a MUCH better tasting "grilled cheese sandwich" without all the silliness about different cheeses, olive oil, spices, and charcoal grilling. The snarky, dismissive contempt for the delicate flavor and soft creamy texture of the traditional American grilled cheese sandwich is no way to effectively promote this crusty, half-burned, odd tasting, charcoal grilled monstrosity either.

he is Christian, but my no means a"Jesus freak". If he were, he'd be around everywhere talking about how if you don't have god you are scum and will burn forever in a lake of fire.

He has really nice guns. What's wrong with that Anon, scared of inanimate objects? Better back away from that kitchen knife - it could just get up and kill you all on its own. Christ.

Nigiri sushi wasn't invented by a bird. It came from thailand as a way to preserve fish and made it's way through china to japan.
Maki sushi wasn't invented by a guy playing dice. Tekka is slang for gambling place in japan but it originally meant red hot iron. It was named after the tuna in rolls because the jappers didn't think tuna wasn't good fish until after WW2.

I think he also dips the sushi upside down and eats it upside down.

There are bad episodes of good eats but good one like the steak and coffee. That all I remember.

I'm not even mad about the grilled cheese. That looked like a fucking baller addition to an afternoon/evening of grilling. Got a vegetarian coming over or some kids or some shit? Throw a couple of those things on with the meat.

For me it's the attitude that all "Griddled Sandwiches with Cheese are WRONG and THIS IS THE ONLY WAY, NO EXCEPTIONS, as a thing to make (and for vegetarians), it sounds fun. Maybe if he went "It's funny that it's called a grilled cheese sandwich, as technically it is a griddled sandwich with cheese, so I thought, what if I actually grilled the cheese first and the bread on a grill as well, how would that turn out?" Then it is a fun experiment on a literal take of the word, not ALL OF YOU ARE WRONG, THIS IS THE ONLY RIGHT WAY.

Btw, who the fuck puts yellow mustard on hotdogs? That shit is nasty, it is "cooking mustard" at best.

the guy is not a chef, he is not even a cook
he just read a bunch of books so he could get a job on the food channel
havent you seen all his lame science type shows he used to try to host?
he is someone who just wants to be on tv and will do anything to be in front of the camera
anything he tries to say is either a script or read straight from a book. the guy doesnt know anything, and certainly doesnt know food

I know, but sometimes it is the only thing in the house, it can be "okay" enough for a simple thing. I was referring somewhat to "cooking vinegar" as well, just pure vinegar, suitable for nothing complicated, but the most bare bones usage.
