Actually insane what he managed

[@jeromethiel4323]

Indeed. Ben and Kush are what i like to call, instructor chefs. They know what they are doing, and can explain it to you so that you can see what they are doing and why. The both of them remind me a lot of Alton Brown. I don't want to just see great chefs making great food. I want to see how i can do it too, and understanding the science behind the cooking makes it easier for me to understand. Don't tell me to do X, explain why X is the right choice for this situation. That way i can understand why the rules exist, and when breaking the rule is a good idea.

@@PeterRavnRasmussen If I were Barry I would have an F1 radio message from 2021 in my head on loop. Checo Perez's defence lost Lewis Hamilton 10-12 seconds in the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, his teammate Verstappen told his engineer on the radio that Checo was a legend to which his engineer responded: "absolute animal". Perfectly describes me looking at Kush making the duxelle with one hand and cooking a fish with the other.

[@JaroKotiranta]

YES! Kush saved it! Still, I'd give Barry a 1,1 because such a promotion from Normal to a Sous-chef can be overwhelming, and he didn't totally crap all over the kitchen ;)

I feel like he didn't consider where he started and only where he left it. Yes things could’ve been better balanced but he only had 10 mins and no main course

[@theeldritchlibrarian]

Kush SLAYED. That man came in and said, "Right, everything's burnt and nothing's seasoned; this is not a problem," and turned out three amazing results. Barry also did himself much prouder than he realized in the moment! Having James back is always such a gift -- never going to stop missing him. And I loved seeing Kush asking himself what Ebbers would do -- to me it was so clear that Ebbers anchors everybody and is the man in charge, all the while letting everyone else's skills shine. What a glorious video. Thank you for this wonderful advent calendar y'all have given us, Sorted Team!!!

I think Barry was extremely hard on himself, he definitely did much better than a one. He saw the vision, he started the apples and he kept the rest of the food going successfully. He even checked the oven! Kush was incredible! It was like watching a scene from one of the early Harry Potter movies, just without a wand in sight. Good performances from everyone and a well-earned and deserved pass! Congratulations!

[@tickledtoffee]

@@superflueous And it worked! 😄

[@bouncing_dancer]

Yeah, Barry did good, he can´t beat himself up because he doesn´t perform like a chef (yet). What he could work on is more multitasking. The chefs come into the kitchen, take a quick look at what´s going on and then think about what to do next while doing some other stuff (chopping etc.). Normals usually flap around for a bit before springing into action. Which is totally understandable - but could be improved.

[@HarmonicFaith]

[@caroubaer]

You can see the professionalism with all of the chefs because they think ahead and they prepare the dishes and the next steps for each other instead of just taking one step at a time. The best example was James setting the scene while already thinking about Kush being able to finish everything off in the end. Everyone else was able to take it from there because they were trained to do so. Watching them working their cheffy perfection was really amazing!

[@ebony7177]

At least Barry didn't do his usual "Oh I see what they're going for BUT WHAT IF I DO THIS INSTEAD?" Kush was the best man for the job of finishing. I love the addition of Kush to the on-screen team. He has great ideas and his humor is great. 😄

[@yiqingtan4079]

The crew literally put them in the most uncomfortable order. -James is good at plating and doesn't like going first so he's first. -Ben loves going first and setting the direction so he doesn't get to and is put second. -Barry is put into arguably the most high pressure position of third because he's gotta figure out what 2 chefs have left him with and complete it without ruining it under a time pressure and is in the exact position to potentially make or break the dish. They didn't put him first because all the chefs would then be able to either have a lot of time to make what he did good or to ignore his contribution and start down a different path. They didn't put him last because the chefs would have probably been able to complete everything before his turn and he'd just have to plate and amongst the normals, he's a decent plater. -Kush didn't want to go after Barry for obvious reasons hahahaha.... But Kush absolutely saved it. Walked in, access the state of everything, knew what needed to be done, went into a controlled turbo mode and got it all done. In time. That's a damn good testament to his training and depth of experience.

[@indigova]

Yes, I'll be honest, I think Barry did better than Ben this episode

[@Aliennumberb]

@@indigova I disagree, I feel all of the chefs worked as if they were working with chefs and Barry got a bit overwhelmed. It feels like we saw a glimpse of Ben cooking without the hand holding he normally gives the normals and it was eye opening. For instance Barry re-hydrated the potatoes instead of putting them in the oven (Ben did say they were just to parboil in the water not cook), he tried cooking pig's cheek which he didn't have time for (he thought they were something else), he almost burnt the apples that he started and didn't add any of the apple related items in his time (the juice, caramel, sugar), he missed the clams and the grapes, I also think he almost burnt the garlic he spent too much time mincing. In all fairness to Baz I think this was just first time jitters and I do feel that he was dropped in the deep end with just a sous chef apron and a dream, but I think he should give himself more credit than a 1. He realized at the end how things were coming together, but was out of time. He's also the only one without any experience in a professional kitchen. I would like if they did this again, but gave Barry 20 minutes to come up to speed.

Im really happy to see Kush evolve from behind the team to being very much the center of videos hes in. Clearly has the experience and personality to thrive.

[@teetilms]

Kush has to be one the most talented chefs I've ever seen.

[@austenhead5303]

I love how his first move is to taste everything, and then focus on improving the FLAVOURS instead of just making things look pretty for the cameras. That's a proper chef. Can't let the food not taste good, even when the point of it is just to entertain people who'll never smell it or taste it. Respect.

Thanks for the advent calendar Sorted team! It's not a huge amount, but here's a small bit of appreciation from a fan in Singapore for the absolute blast of 24 days! Merry Christmas!!!

Thank you 💛

I've been reading the incredible Salt Fat Acid Heat by Samin Nosrat, and Kush put on a masterclass in how a professional chef intuitively reaches for each of those elements! Realizing that literally everything needed salt and using vinegar in almost every dish to add freshness and balance out the heavy flavors of all the fats being used to salvage a mess of a kitchen into a well-balanced and enjoyable meal (even though it sounds like from his ending comments that he would have preferred to have a little more time to perfect the seasoning balance) is an actual superpower, and one that I'm hoping I can come even close to imitating someday.

Kush deserves an 11 he came into a warzone and somehow conjured 3 good dishes out of it.

I love the raw emotions that come out under stress. You can tell who has worked in a high stress environment 😂

[@catmaniego9467]

it has been fifteen minutes since i've finished the video and i STILL cannot move on from the way kush BEASTED that. well done to the whole team and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!! this advent calendar was my favorite of the season from any kind of media by far. thank you so much for all the joy this channel has always given its viewers

[@awgmax]

I think this is a first time someone truly DESERVED a 10 in a Pass It On. Let's go KUSH!

[@azeve1aa]

Holy shit, Kush worked an actual Xmas miracle with his ten minutes.

[@arbiterally101]

I can see now why they haven't let Kush join Pass It On before. The man's too dang powerful. Comments aside, Team Chefs did a remarkable job, full head and shoulders over what would be expected in a normal PIO. Excellent showing the lot of you.

[@cazzioc]

Kush was amazing end of. He performed magic in those 10 minutes. Give that man a gold star or 3! ⭐⭐⭐

[@NostalgiaKillah_]

Amazes me how Kush does what he does. True talent right there! Man could make a feast out of literally anything!!!

[@yiqingtan4079]

I feel Ebbers anchors everyone in general. He leads, guides, teaches, cooks and brings out the best in both normals and chefs. It takes leadership to build and maintain such a wonderful atmosphere, beautiful camaraderie and forward momentum. ❤ Love it

[@Halvblodsprinsen100]

Wait, are we talking about the same ebbers that handcuffed people to a risotti, refused to make fried chicken and instead went for fish pie deraling everything, has brought out a giant cods head to «mess with the normals» and more?

[@yiqingtan4079]

@@Halvblodsprinsen100 yes... Isn't he wonderful? 🤗

[@cheyenneworner7842]

Barry you did great! Guys don’t let him be so hard on himself ! He’s improved so much and needs to not let the pressure of needing to perform at chef level get to him. You did at least a 5.5 Barry! Keep going Sous Chef !

[@eviesharp17]

I’m very much a silent viewer but just wanted to say: you really can tell how much effort has been put in for the last 24 day’s content. Thank you boys! Happy holidays to you all
