I realize this may get lost amongst all of the sports stuff but...
The Next Iron Chef looks really cool!
I love Alton Brown.
It starts the first week of Oct on the food network.

    I wonder if they are going to get rid of one of the Iron Chefs??
    I miss Morimoto...I barely see him anymore. He is amazing.

    I love what they do with the "ingredient", not saying i would eat any of it, but it is cool how they come up with some of the stuff they do.

    is it just me or do you not really like the american iron chef as much. i mean sure you want to see competition and food that looks good.. but there was something awesome about watching these people cook their traditional foods with ingrediants like eel and gooeyduck... i mean things that were challenging..

    i was watching american the other day and they had a challenge with garlic.. i mean really.. it just gets boring

    Last night it was apples. wtf?
    And Cat Cora totally blew it. :(
    I agree....it is getting boring...but I still get really hungry watching it. :)
    At least when Morimoto is on we see some wild stuff.

    i think thats what i loved about the original.. it was really interesting to see how they cooked the food but in no way did it make me hungry. it was just really awesome to see them working. i just don't see how apples and garlic are challenging to a professional chef. shit i could make 5 dishes using garlic in an hour..
  • Alton Brown is smart, and I like his "science behind the food" approach, but I can only take him for small periods of time before he annoys the hell out of me.

    one of the chef's i worked for went to school with Alton Brown he siad he a weird guy that lol

    I am curious as to how many of these people will actually have some culinary experience....not like those goofs on Top Chef....lol
    I think it is cute how Alton and the chairman get along. Cute couple. lol

    No one ever challenges him because they don't want to get beat.

    I think he did lose one time. If you can believe it.
    I would love to see him and Hung from Top Chef do a showdown with butchering chickens. lol

    I like Iron Chef but......

    :p

    Too many "The Next...." shows!

    Someone in TV should come up with an original thought!

    See Champ...I gave you ample warning.
    :)

    If anyone missed it you can tivo it Sunday. They are showing all of the episodes. I thought they did a great job. And as expected, my man Alton Brown lended a generous amount of campiness to the show. As did the chairman. lol
    There is an awesome episode where they display the future of cooking. They had Wiley Dufresne, one of the top molecular gastronomists..he is out of this world.

    alton brown is cool
    and his show is very informative

    iron chef, both versions has gotten a little tired

    Dinner impossible is my new favorite FOOD TV show
    Speaking of morimoto, I dont know why they dont have a japanese-related show-they should
