Bobby Flay Throws Down Against Spicy Wings | Hot Ones

FACTS

[@loorthedarkelf8353]

As they keep talking about how food TV hit the main steam, I agree with Bobby Flay that Iron Chef was a very big part of it-- because competition demands a story to be interesting. And this story of the competing chefs is acknowledged at every point in the battle, the chairman recognizes the history of both chefs, we learn more about their background and their strengths and weaknesses through Alton Brown's commentary. We took something that was very frequently shown to us as being mundane raised up to the level of serious competition and given the gravitas thereof. Humans have been making and loving and comparing food for as long as we've had the ability to taste, it's part of the reflex to share a new food with a friend; "Look what I found!". Add in the creative components, where we acknowledge that food is creative and artistic, and we step into the domain of things that contain love. "I made this for you" is one of the most special things an artist can say to another person, and food is one of the things were allowed to vocally appreciate and say back " This is amazing! I feel the love" We've been seeing more with food and storytelling, such as the show Somebody Feed Phil, where the lens of food is used to explore history and culture of places all over the world. Food is universal, and sharing food was likely the first pro social communication our species picked up as we started living in nomadic groups waaay back in the cave drawing days. Before we spoke, we broke up fruits for our young and chewed tough meat for our elders. Before the word Love was first spoken, people were sharing it as food. Its a long story, and I think its great that more folks are exploring that space 😊

Great interview. He's a good dude and I speak from personal experience. I actually called his restaurant (in the early days of Food Network when he was doing "Grillin' and Chillin") and he was there. I actually spoke to Bobby Flay on the phone because I was considering changing careers and becoming a chef after I had already invested time in my current line of work. As odd as it sounds, I wanted his professional advice. He took the time to talk to me and broke it down by asking how much money I made at the time at my current employment. He said it would take about X amount of years to make that amount of money again as a chef. It seemed like an eternity so I decided against it. In retrospect, I probably should have gone for it.

[@zstevens7]

I’ve seen almost every episode of hot ones, but this seems special. Old school Bobby and new school Sean. I loved the chemistry and respect these two had from the jump. Much love.

Bobby seems like the most kindest and genuine person ever. What a great episode!

[@christopherbowers1060]

I love hot ones and love Bobby Flay. What a great match!!

[@fourhundredbagels2584]

This is how you know you've got a master: no criticism needed for the sauces. Just looking at the ingredients and predicting what's to come based on that. Bobby's a class act for sure.

The best episode with a chef you have done. Down to earth and relatable while still relating his knowledge.

[@Rampge76]

Bobby Flay is literally the best. Makes it seem like he could chill with anyone. Great episode!

[@justinw9982]

Sean's ability to match his guest, bite for bite, drink for drink is amazing. It really makes the show.

I loved hearing how he described peppers and ingredients.. this guy is a legend!! He is savage at eating finishing the challenge. He actually took HUGE bites not just a tiny nibble...

And by the end, dude was sweating like he was outside in a Vegas summer.

I once got stuck at the dentist for like 6 hours which would have been the worst day of my life had there not been an all day Beat Bobby Flay marathon on. I watched it the entire time. It was comforting, entertaining and made it all survivable.

[@dennythejet4284]

But now I can't watch it with out thinking about the dentist...

[@AndrewBlacker-wr2ve]

Flay looks as young as he did when i first saw him 20 years ago.

[@maniv100]

He looks a little more dried out 😂

[@BrotonCC]

This is probably the most honest and humble Bobby flay I’ve seen on the tube. 👍🏻👍🏻 love seeing the depth of people and not just the tv personality.

23:51 what an absolutely amazing episode I absolutely loved Bobby flay what an articulate and well-educated editor video and audio I'm sure live TV artist I would love to see something with Sean and Bobby flay with burning people's mouth out would be absolutely amazing to watch.
