Drogo February 9, 2018 Share February 9, 2018 Each team gets an out-of-order recipe and the recruits team up to figure out how to unscramble it. Anne and Tyler then tell the recruits they are being left alone in boot camp, but secretly watch every move from a remote command post. For the main dish challenge, the recruits learn the truth of sausage making. The tasting is a potluck dinner, so their sausages must impress both the chefs and their fellow recruits. Link to comment
spiderpig February 19, 2018 Share February 19, 2018 I had this on as background noise just to get it off my DVR. That is all. 1 Link to comment
Brookside February 19, 2018 Share February 19, 2018 (edited) Those white sausages (from Anne and Tyler) looked disgusting. Anyone who calls herself TeeTee should be shot. Does she really think her children will be proud that their mother is named for breasts? Turned the sound off for most of the episode because this show plus sausages plus innuendo . . . . Why do I watch? Edited February 19, 2018 by Brookside 3 Link to comment
Wings February 19, 2018 Share February 19, 2018 I watch with generous FF and not every episode. FN has got to get some new programing. I watch all cooking competitions because I love to cook but this one is just awful. Shatima's commentary is a cliche found often on SNL and bad MTV sit coms. She is quite taken with herself. Why are they teaching them to cook bonned, skinless chicken breasts? There isn't a chef or good home cook that touches them. 1 Link to comment

justjen February 19, 2018 Share February 19, 2018 I really just watch this because I would totally watch a Buddy-Beginning Cooks show with just Steven and Sharon. They will both be great fathers one day, they have the Dad Jokes down pat. :) Asaf's sweaty, over product-ed hair continues to gross me out! 6 Link to comment
mlp February 19, 2018 Share February 19, 2018 I've been wondering how they were going to even up the teams before the final episodes. They didn't even try to pretend it just happened that way did they? Balloon girl deserved her elimination so it worked out OK. I think the finalists will be Lacey and either Steven or Sharon. I like both of them but I'm going to guess it will be Sharon because he seems better organized and less frantic. Hazel's chyron says she's a grad student. That implies that she already has an undergraduate degree in something. I'd like to know what college graduated someone whose grammar is even worse than her hideous purple lipstick. 2 Link to comment
Pepper the Cat February 19, 2018 Share February 19, 2018 (edited) I think Hazel looks so much nicer when she has her hair restrained and leaves the purple lipstick off, like when she is in the kitchen cooking. She looks dreadful in her talking heads with the poofy hair do and bright purple lipstick. Edited February 20, 2018 by Pepper the Cat 3 Link to comment
wallysmommy February 20, 2018 Share February 20, 2018 An entire cooking show dedicated to adolescent humor. This episode just made Anne Burrell and Tyler Florence look stupid. What's next week's theme --F-art party, where they celebrate food art? 5 Link to comment
justjen February 20, 2018 Share February 20, 2018 To be fair, every season they do the sausage challenge thingy and every year it is the same jokes but I think maybe it serves to relax the contestants and I think if one is making sausage, you can't help but crack those jokes. (Says the avowed non-cook) I've personally been trying to find ways to use "grease the horn" in my everyday life, but then again my inner child is a preteen boy. Link to comment
eurekagirl mOo February 20, 2018 Share February 20, 2018 I love it! Looks like I'm alone in that. I just laugh and laugh. I watch a ton of FN and its just fun. The other shows are serious and that's ok. I love those too. This ones just for FUN. 2 Link to comment
mme ginger February 21, 2018 Share February 21, 2018 Yeah, I can’t get too upset about the sausage jokes. I mean, come on - of course! ?Also, I think Titi is from ShaTIma and also “titi” is a child’s way of saying “aunt” in Spanish - my niece used to call me Titi when she was little. So I don’t think it’s a breast thing. ?(And isn’t that ‘tatas’ anyway?)I do like both Sharon and Steven - I thought Hazel would be the Red team person, but now I’m not sure. I wonder if they can come up with a way to break up Steven and Sharon and have them compete against each other? Although Lacey may be a dark horse! And I realize that’s much more than anyone’s ever thought about this ridiculous show! 5 Link to comment
chessiegal February 21, 2018 Share February 21, 2018 Someone tweeted Tyler complaining that this episode was not appropriate for her 10 year old daughter to watch. His response was, having a daughter of his own, he agreed, and he has spoken to the producers about their edits of the episode. FWIW. 6 Link to comment
chessiegal February 21, 2018 Share February 21, 2018 Second person tweeted Tyler complaining, saying he was watching with his 6 year old, and changed the channel. Tyler said he has little to do with themes and edits, but has expressed his concerns to the producers, as he thinks this should be a family show. 3 Link to comment
Yeah No February 22, 2018 Share February 22, 2018 What's with the juvenile double entendre on this show and Top Chef this season? It's getting worse on both shows. Ditto on having this on in the background while doing other things. 1 Link to comment
mme ginger February 23, 2018 Share February 23, 2018 (edited) Really? I find that pretty lame. If you’re kid picks up on stuff, then explain it to them in an age-appropriate way. I imagine most youngsters don’t get the double-entendres. It IS double, after all. And very light... complaining is ridiculous. Hopefully they’ll find some patsy other than Tyler next year. They obviously have to cycle through their network people. If he’s going along with the complainers, he’s a loser. Edited February 26, 2018 by mme ginger 3 Link to comment
wallysmommy February 25, 2018 Share February 25, 2018 Ridiculous is the right word for this show. The producers don't even have to audition competitors. They can just go to tapes of other reality shows and pick the stereotype they are looking to fill. Then we recycle the challenges. I liked Anne Burrell when she had her own show on Saturday mornings when she actually cooked instead of dealing with a bunch of buffoons trying to get their "big" show business break. If they really want over the top, let my favorites, the Impractical Jokers, teach the Worst Cooks in America. It would be awesome! Link to comment
mme ginger February 26, 2018 Share February 26, 2018 Boy, how I miss Anne’s excellent cooking show, too... I can’t dislike her. I think she’s tough because she’s pretty competitive and pretty serious about cooking well, but she really is being wasted. 6 Link to comment
HyeChaps February 27, 2018 Share February 27, 2018 I agree. How to Cook Like a Restaurant Chef was an excellent showcase for Anne's teaching skills. Ditto How to Boil Water with Tyler. 2 Link to comment
chessiegal February 27, 2018 Share February 27, 2018 (edited) Tyler's Food 911 was even better. Emeril Lagasse also did How to Boil Water in the infant days of FN. Edited February 27, 2018 by chessiegal 2 Link to comment
