[@taylor7633]

A sous vide is like $50 or so, or $100 if you want a nicer one with bluetooth features. Not at all the hassle Ms. Scientist claimed. All you need is a bucket or other large container, water, a plastic bag, and a sous vide and you're good to go. You can find a sous vide at any superstore like Target or Wal Mart. It really is the only way to truly cook steak, it's so amazing.

A few of the chefs that get featured in this series make me really happy. From the chefd featured in this episode, it's definitely Emily and Julie. I like Adriana, too, but the level 3 chefs rarely have that extra spark of personality that I love. Emily is such a mood, she's the most relatable out of everyone, and her iconic ketchup meme never dies. Julie gives me this vibe that she's this mom or grandma that loves her family, takes care of them super well and generally loves whatever she does. Seeing them just makes my day.

[@KaziNSakib]

Everyone who is questioning the level 3 chef's 10 year claim, she's not lying. She is Venezuelan chef, Adriana Urbin. She started as a cook in a restaurant when she was 15 and now she's 26 so yeah that's 10 years for you. Edit: All the people replying on my comment talking about marinate and dry-aged either have no clue what marinating or dry-aging do or just like to criticize an award winning chef no good reason. Dry-aged steak has stronger flavor not because it's "dry" rather the concentration of beefy flavor by the muscle breaking down and losing water content. Dry rub or wet rub (marinating) does not make the muscle reverse back to original. Rather it adds more flavor from the marination. And also sous vide doesn't have render fat much because dry aging makes the fat much easier to render without much much heat and also she seared afterwards anyway which does the job perfect. So instead of trying to disparage an internationally recognized chef like that, maybe be more positive? Source: I dry-age and sous vide steaks on pretty regular basis.

I would really love it if instead of all chefs having different ingredients, each level chef would have identical ingredients and cooking utensils so that we could see more than just a "fancier" cut of meat or a vacuum sealer. It would be great to see innovation on the part of the chefs, like the amateur might just chop the jalapeno and throw it into the steak rub while the chef might roast it and turn it into a roasted jalapeno cream sauce.

[@iamwindchakra]

Emily gets a gold star today. She did not cook that meat till it was well done and even though she made a ketchup based sauce she added stuff to it. She did a dry rub to that meat. Emily, I can see you becoming a level 2 Chef right before my eyes. As for the level 2 Chef can she be my mom? For real, can I adopt her? That steak looked like it smelled and tasted like heaven. As for the level 3 chef, she did a damn good job but she did exactly what I would expect for a level 3 Chef so there wasn't really any room for surprise there. Happy to see everyone took such great care of their meat.

[@amya9623]

she made bbq sauce that’s why the ketchup is in there

[@mauz791]

Ketchup and French toast? She has transcended to the beyond realm

[@HirathaYT]

In the UK french toast is called eggy bread and it’s savoury, ketchup would be perfectly normal to eat it with. Emily’s just being (accidentally) international. :)

She also cooked a French Omelette correctly using Frank's expensive ingredients recently. She ought to be moved up to Level 2.

I appreciate that this wasn’t in the mode of declaring that anyone did anything “wrong”. Each of these could be very tasty and of course the budget delta’s between each level make a difference in how one may choose to prepare. I bet they each were good; however, that level 2 approach is what I found most similar to how I’d prepare (at least for indoor conditions)

[@scallywag1716]

I do the sous vide method. It makes it so easy to get a killer, tender steak every time. You can take the toughest, cheap cuts and turn them into tender pieces of deliciousness.

[@AP-ez3vq]

They legit made a pause when Emily said “ ketchup “ they know

[@vintagemint3167]

Kinda annoying

[@Justanotherconsumer]

It’s not a shocking choice for those of us that don’t have six hours of time to prep each meal. Probably better to use the components (vinegar, sugar, etc...) so you have more control over the recipe, but it’s a time saver. Not something they really cover in these shows, as they’re talking about technique more than ingredients.

[@tashawnlove5928]

She basically made bbq sauce. That's why the ketchup is in there
