Sorry folks, I had to cut some because we've had more regular judges than I had poll selections, so special shoutout to Christian Petroni, Eddie Jackson, Angie Mar, Giorgio Rapicavoli, Jordan Andino, and Martha Stewart. Mathematically, you didn't make the top 10, so I didn't include you.

this year's bbq brawl pilot was so funny here are some of my favorite moments

Antonia calling Bobby Robert

Carson saying a chimichurri gave him impure thoughts

"I let my whole town down" in the draft challenge that barely matters because the steals always come into play

Antonia saying that she's gonna tell her therapist about the team she chose

Maneet. That's the point I love her so deeply

[redroomtragedies]

the honor of meeting the dancing spice queen herself was great!!!!!!! like hello??? (yes i know i look pissed off in the third one, its because i am due to this one kid being a sexist dumbass who didn’t want to listen to one of the professionals out there on so many shows)

Chef Spotlight: Maneet Chauhan - A Culinary Force with Global Flavors

Double Tournament of Champions Winner? Maneet Chauhan Dominates the Kitchen!

I’ve always been drawn to chefs who aren’t afraid to play with fire, both literally and figuratively. And when it comes to turning up the heat with innovative cuisine and a vibrant personality, Maneet Chauhan – aka the Dancing Spice Queen – is in a league of her own. This nickname perfectly captures her energetic spirit and the way she infuses her dishes with the vibrant flavors of her Indian…

just occurred to me that i have not posed this question here yet. hey everyone who’s the hottest person on food network

The thing I love about TOC is that all of the winners have been women. Two of them are women of color and one of them is lesbian.

Watched the Guy Fieri Tournament of Champion finale last night and LETS GOOOOOOO.

(SPOILERS for this season and past seasons after this point!)

I was rooting for Antonia last season because she just wanted it so bad and it was such a tough loss in the finale for her (she lost by one point! ONE POINT!), so she was my pick this season from day 1. I'm so happy for her. Also I love Sara Bradley so it was basically my ideal finale matchup. Sara had a rough cook but making it to the final in her rookie campaign is amazing and she will be back.

So the thing about this show is, the first 5 seasons all had women winners (Brooke Williamson, Tiffani Faison, Mei Lin, Maneet Chauhan x2) and this season for the first time the previous champions didnt return to compete. Which is fine! But it also meant pulling 4 top seeded female chefs out of the contest, which felt to me like the show was trying to rig itself in favor of a male winner. (Specifically I feel like they want Jet Tila to win, but that's just me conspiracy theorizing.) But despite the 4 top seeds vacating their spots we still wound up with an all women final 4 and another woman champion.

This bluesky post from natthedem makes a point tbh.

I love Top Chef. I think the inclusion of so many Top Chef alums really elevates the competition on TOC (4 out of 5 winners were on Top Chef, everybody but Maneet). But the format and the judging on TOC really does make it feel like the best pure cooking competition on TV now.

RANDOM MUSING: Looking at the Food Network Tournament of Champions' bracket after last night and already wondering if this season finale is going to be a replay of last year's Mei Lin vs. Maneet Chauhan finale.

But I'm a total geek who thinks about cooking competition shows while commuting.

CURRY IN A HURRY 

Inspired by Maneet Chauhan’s many victories on the Food Network.

RICE: I put jasmine rice in the rice cooker. At the end threw in a nob of butter before serving. 

HERB OIL: I cleaned out the veggie drawer and made an oil out of soft herbs. Mint, cilantro, dill, scallions and parsley, I think. I think for indian flavors, mint and cilantro are most important, but you can dial any direction. I threw in some salt, lemon juice, olive oil. BRRRRRRRRR goes the blender! When it got a little stuck around the base of the VitaMix, i poured a little water in. I put it through a food mill to strain it into a smooth sauce; if you don’t have one more of a chunky sauce is fine! 

CHICKEN: I seasoned (with Tony Chachere’s) two skin on chicken thighs and pan seared in OO and butter. (Use whatever cut & seasoning you want; this is what I had and thighs are my fav.) Let the skin get quite crispy before flipping (if using a skin-on cut). Cook through to about 150 degrees then let rest. 

SAUCE: After I pulled the chicken thighs, I used the same pan with the leftover fat and seasoning in it. Chucked in a chopped up nob of ginger, some red onion, a few nobs of a jalapeno, a scallion, a couple garlic cloves. All roughly chopped – this is going back in the blender so you don’t have to like dice. 

After that all got some color and started smelling great, I poured a can of tomatoes over top. I seasoned it with turmeric, cinnamon, cumin, and a little lime leaf that I had in the pantry, but follow your nose to tell you what would fit in your sauce. Let that cook down and get all delicious – maybe 15 min? Then I put it in the blender. 

While the sauce blends, put some more oil in the pan and seared some garbanzo beans till they got a little color. Then pour the blended sauce over top and let it all cook together for a few minutes. 

SERVE: Rice + sliced chicken + garbanzo + herb oil over everything!

Being mildly obsessed with cooking shows is my curse, not only would I not eat almost anything these people cook, but I feel informed on things I am not informed on. Good thing this is the perfect arena for that to not matter. I can have a mild crush on Antonia Lafoso and Maneet Chauhan while knowing I have no idea what they're doing, it can just be fun. Huge fan of Darnell Ferguson and Jet Tila as well though. I also have my people I root against but that feels mean to say lol, because I think they're way more talented than me. It's like watching sports though, you've got the person/team your rooting for.

I looooove Maneet Chauhan, but letting her compete on these cooking shows at this point is like legalizing Street Fighter 2 Akuma for tournament play
