It's not Carla's fault though. If you watch the Gordon Ramsay video of Back-to-Back you will get the tone that they were going for here.

[@WruceBayne]

Dylan foley I bet you eat well done steaks with ketchup. Also you're an idiot if you think someone who has never poached an egg should be able to do it perfectly just because a chef vaguely explained it. I bet you're never seen a day in a professional kitchen.

[@jerzeeprince]

+Wruce Bayne lmao I was about to sign into my chronic sarcasm email to leave that guy a good one for trying to make that girl's sweet comment dark and tainted with his pomp-diseased tongue. But that's funny bro. "well done steak with ketchup" ... That's great on so many levels. I thought instantly, either an immature adult who still gets his food sliced by his now aged and wheelchair barren mommy because he's 42 and hasn't ever left her basement. or #2, just a sad way to be... A bland, sour-mouthed idiot with a low I.Q. and no travel or life experience that's the least bit exciting where KZbin is his place to attack and conquer all that insecurity he's saved up, but none of it goes away and he washes that tasteless cardboard steak down with unflavored aloe water that's been kept unopen in the fridge collecting fruit flies and a brown glaze hovering at the top.

[@henryaung596]

I really feel for Marlon, made hollandaise once for fun and had to try it three times wasting a whole block and a half of butter to get it right. Imagine doing that under time restraint and with verbal cues and not watching 15 tutorials on how to make hollandaise!

[@psolo3]

I agree with Dylan that poached eggs are super easy especially with a professional guiding you through it. But his hollondaise was very good for a beginner even with a chef guiding him. My first time making it, I had a chef tell me exactly what to do, and mine ended up all curdy and disgusting

[@sunflower9481]

Queen at explaining. "Make a little tornado in your pan". "Metal basket". "Red dust". "Little green donuts". Lol.

[@kathyquinny]

My guess for why she's so rude is that this is the first "Back to Back" she did and she was trying to make it more like the ones that came before (like the Gordon Ramsay one). I'm thinking she figured her own style out later.

[@EvanSawyer4]

Agreed.

[@hsmoscout]

PSA: this was her first episode, back when they were switching out chefs and it was usually a very strict and fast format. this was before she really found her comfort zone and figured out that being open and patient and TEACHING was what really made the show work

[@brittneyburton5365]

Gotcha! I was wondering if it was her first time doing this show and maybe she was just really strict with the time..bc in the other episodes she'd cut up with them and didn't seem to be as "stressed" about the time limit so she'd actually TEACH them.

[@valeriage5701]

@@brittneyburton5365 I agree. I feel like it was the very first or one of the first episodes. Now a days the time limit is 20 minutes but in this episode it was 15 minutes. That can be a reason for why everything seemed so rushed.

[@brittneyburton5365]

Yeah I really think (looking back now) it was totally her feeling the rush from producers to actually stick to that hardcore time. And I do think his comment probably threw her off and maybe she felt like he was being aggressive, but we all see it was completely him being funny and making jokes to ease the tension. I think it was just a tough video for it to be her first one to try and make eggs benedict in 15 minutes with someone that isn't a cook. Because in the very beginning (before the joke) she was her usual fun self, but I think it changed after that. Tough one to watch tho! maybe BA should consider taking it down bc clearly everyone in the comments are shook after watching it!

Does anyone else think Carla was being a bit serious. Like I know people are gonna be like, “oH, bUt GoRdOn RaMsEy Is SeRiOuS”. Yes, yes he is, but Carla (if you have watched her other videos) is usually very humorous with the other actors. I think the race comment he made in the beginning really pushed her buttons lol

[@l.ant.mulipola]

She was a bit akward during the hollandaise sauce segment...

[@RK_Badin]

Idk if thats what did it tho, maybe she had a bad day.

[@FrolleinMiez]

I think she just knew from the comments he made that he wasn't keeping up and not sure what she meant half of the time. But not having the time nor the ability to just look over and help him she tried to pull him through with a bit of a harsher tone so he'd focus and get a good result. Was hard to watch though! I feel like they need to match up the dishes with the guests better. He'd done great with a different dish I think and then she'd have been more relaxed too. Oh well.

[@lissetteramirez191]

i agree with the race comment, and i also think maybe she just thought he wasnt taking it too serious because of his comments, like hed joke but also not laugh or crack a smile which also seemed awkward and intimidating

[@pinksieesims]

At first she told him to stop whisking and listen...then she told him to keep whisking...🤣 She wasn’t even trying to joke, if she was going to do this, she should have known he was going to joke around. Making a comment about, “We’re making white people food” shouldn’t get under your skin and shouldn’t be taken seriously.

Yeah, it was the original format of the show. Check out the Ramsey ep. This was the first one she did, so she went along w/ what was done before.

[@suave9184]

Ok?

[@laurenclisby41]

So my theory why Carla is being purposely curt and rushed is because that was the original "idea" for back-to-back chef. Someone tries to "keep up" with a pro chef, while the pro chef goes super fast and treats them (kind of) like in a professional kitchen. And then I think BA figured out it's much more entertaining when it's just Carla being nice and encouraging and just trying to talk people through recipes. Checking a couple other vids, this one came out several months earlier... so it might be the first? Also, skip to like 8:10 and she's chilled out. I really think her "attitude" was just put-on for the idea of the show.

[@Faazz01]

[@jeps]

[@EvanSawyer4]

I agree, it was the previous format that kept a quick pace and she was following that. This IS Carla's first and the first with a celebrity too so they definitely changed the format for the next one leaving Marlon as the guinea pig of sorts. I hope you don't mind but I've been posting that this is Carla's first and the notion that the older format was faster paced, with a mention of your username of course, on other comment threads. It's unfortunate how this comes across but it's not how people first perceive it and your comment helped me realized that so i wanted to pay it forward.

Even if the recipe needs to be done quickly, she as a chef should've chosen something that wouldn't require her to rush her guest.

[@Luckyhearts]

GZB TY this is supposed to be entertainment, not training for a professional job lol. Why would they expect anyone to come in for that?

[@FitzroyCo.]

Carla is one of my favorites on this channel, but I can see what people mean about her being too serious for this particular video. Other than the egg pouching, it really wasn't a time sensitive dish. I know why she was rushing so much

[@fordhouse8b]

Doing this at the pace required of a chef at a very busy breakfast place was the whole point. The point was definitely not to do this at the leisurely pace of a Sunday morning home cook. Wayans didn't do to terribly on anything except the sauce.

[@babelfish42ofstarcommand90]

She had too. That was the point of the video. It was a game for him to keep up while she pushes him.

[@user-kh9ki3kq8m]

Jacob Eggert he was being obnoxious and condescending. “Are we making white people food? You tryna give me a heart attack?”. I would’ve been pissed too.

[@irmadiaz5124]

Jackson Catlett he’s a comedian that’s what he is mostly recognized for, and they invited him so they would’ve already known more or less how he would act

[@TheSquonkOfPillingerForest]

@@user-kh9ki3kq8m those were..jokes. Because he's a comedian.

[@amiemcconnell8324]

They need to redo this one

[@JeffFridlesMoore]

He was a mess lol. She was fine, this is a timed dish. No time for games. lol

[@DREAMWORLD1110]

I had high hopes for this episode because I really like her and Marlon can be funny. She was rude as hell which was surprising because other participants screwed up way worse than this and she seemed to have a ball smiling the entire time.

[@sabrinaalexander3372]

DREAMWORLD1110 definitely agree with you . She definitely brushed off every little thing he said , that was disrespectful I know he felt the vibe

[@EvanSawyer4]

Marlon was her first. Thus, she wasn't nice to others then harsh on Marlon. It's the other way around. Ramsey, Flay and Boulud's episodes have a quicker format and it seems like BA was trying to keep the that format for this one (Carla's first). They changed the approach next episode and it stuck. It's unfortunate how it comes across to newer people who have no reason to watch the episodes in order. Through no fault of their own or BA, mind you. I was taken aback too till a comment further down by Lauren Clisby let me know of this. She didn't comment on other threads though so i'm doing it, i think it's important.

[@DaniellesMicoMarley]

@@EvanSawyer4 I noticed shes chipper in beginning of this video so I was confused why her tone flipped. But this makes a lot sense because at the end of the video she was happy again lol in my opinion Marlon was the one being rude then she kind of went with it then he did and it was back n forth. It is important that its cleared up or mentioned because I keep judging her in a negative light..had to rewatch to make sure

[@2katlady59]

Yeah, and hollandaise is notoriously difficult to make and poached eggs are also hard to get right if you've never had one/cooked one

[@andrineslife]

I kinda loved Carla being so serious against him being funny 😊

[@EGJ4855]

She's a Chef! No bullshit!!

[@littlenotsohomestead]

I feel like I'm in elementary watching my friends parents argue, and it's all awkward😂 She called him "buddy" in the meanest way possible😂

[@juliegeorge3817]

I love how much Carla talks with her hands even though he cant see her.

[@0chibijulie0]

Well....that wasn't an easy dish but to get all the components done on time she did have to get him to focus lol. I appreciate her as a chef and instructor. She laxed when the time was right. And once marlon got into it he realized it too. She wasn't mean lol. Kinda made me think of ratatoullie when he's teaching his human friend how to cook. He was strict but it was out of love. 😊

[@twilightknight123]

This was the most uncomfortable video of yours that I've ever watched. Marlon was just trying to make jokes and she wasn't even pretending to have fun. Someone must have told her to lighten up towards the end since that's when she at least pretended to play along.

[@what6563]

I think it's just emphasise that she is a professional, doing a stressful job

[@MartinSaurGaming]

Its fucking eggs benedict, not exactly a super stressful dish...

[@WeArePharmers]

ehhh they probably did a discussion beforehand where Carla let him know she would treat him like she normally might treat a chef in the kitchen for production's sake, so I didn't find it too awkward at all.

[@prolapse4208]

they're making KZbin comedy videos fuck off. She was literally ignoring her guest and making a how to video by herself

[@lh12121212]

I would've been as frustrated as she was

[@heatherchase8935]

Sticks his finger in to taste “That’s lemon”

[@ethanc739]

Carla was on "Shut Up Evan" and explained how the producers wanted to mimic the tone of their first viral back-to-back with Gordon Ramsay, so they directed her to act like this (until she convinced them it would be more successful if she was herself...) ah, it all makes sense!!!

[@wardaahmed4906]

But although Gordon is serious he is personable and jokey and witty… she was being rude

[@ethanc739]

You are being real generous, sis. He wasn't horrible though for having no point of reference for the recipe.

[@SpadesHeart]

it honestly really wasn't that bad. He made one major mistake not putting both yolks in the hollandaise, but otherwise it was solid.

[@freeketchupsmoothies9058]

She seemed very rude to him she was extremely nice to and joked around with everyone else but with him she was just like whatever get it done I don't really care I don't want to joke around with you I don't want to talk to you.

[@AdamC2013]

I think as they developed the series they recognised that a high pressure speed critical dish is not the way to go ^^ imagine if they poached that egg for 20minuted lol

[@benquigley9257]

I think this is the first episode of the back to back cooking with a celebrity she did... she has gotten better, realizing you don’t have to rush as much and she can let the celebrity joke around. Plus her instructions have improved so much!

[@Stef-fk8st]

Anyone uncomfortable from watching this never worked in a kitchen before. Professionals in the food game just take their craft seriously. Plus, I’m sure Marlon knew what he signed up for.

[@juniorflores4542]

Stef this show is for laughs. They feature actors for a reason.

[@babelfish42ofstarcommand90]

Yeah. People also didnt read the description or title. The whole point was for her to push him and make a challenge. She wasnt supposed to actually teach him how to make it. Instead to play a "racing" game.

[@nefrettitim]

"Buddy"

[@JohannaLazaro26]

I’ve worked in plenty of kitchens this made me uncomfortable

[@babelfish42ofstarcommand90]

Jo Laz so the kitchens you've worked at played these challenges? Cuz this is a game.

[@iored]

Everyone complaining about the chef is a little silly. She was the professional. She acted no different than Gordon Ramsay or Bobby Flay. If anything, she was the more lenient of the three.

[@Amrotu]

agreed the other two go out of there way to make sure the guest fails she took a lot of extra time to make sure his dish was alright

[@MrJbkilla]

Why does everybody keep bringing up Gordon Ramsay he has a show where he interacts with celebrities and he's extremely polite and playful the whole time

[@iored]

Because he was on this show. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3jHnWB3ZqmppqM

Peter Blakes they did this exact video but with Gordon as the chef teaching the amateur.

[@tehevilengineer7939]

Actually, Ramsay and Flay pause to let the other guy "finish" the step, ask dumb questions or be verbally distressed. Clara plowed right through all of that or did you not notice Marlen become increasingly irritated towards the middle of the video

[@HGNMyles82]

This was weird, I had to skip to the end... something was really off with their chemistry... as in there was none...

[@cartier2312]

You ready? No !! You need to slow down lol 😂😂😂

[@WebsterAnn]

I like how at the beginning he was a little combative, maybe because he was uncomfortable doing something new, and Carla was not to be distracted. She's a good teacher.

[@NovaLena22]

Wow...I thoroughly enjoyed this. I really thought she was great. Yes, she was very serious... but she's a chef -- not a comic. I don't get all the whinging about her bossyness. Nobody complains when its Gordon Ramsey being bossy and curt.

[@jackendebox7736]

Nova Lena 👍exactly

[@alphawolfnami]

She wasn't being bossy, she was condescending and treating him like a child. The way she was strict on even the minute sounds he was making with the utensils. And then she was using weird baby tones and terms like "ohh drop your eggies in there". She's no Gordon Ramsey. Don't compare the two.

[@NovaLena22]

Nami Ahn I think you're projecting a wee bit. She wasn't speaking to him like an inferior. She was speaking to him like he was a non-cook. She can't very well use cooking terminology to someone who's not a cook. And she has the added hurdle of instructing him without seeing what he's doing... all under the pressure of the clock. Of course she's going to use the simplest lingo to try to get him on the same page. I really don't get this animosity toward her. Are people really this hypersensitve these days?

[@alphawolfnami]

Nova Lena I mean, I feel as though comments like your's are the hypersensitive ones. Trying to protect and White Knight her. She was rude, not bossy, as most of the comments agree. This isn't women being looked down on for being assertive, she's plain rude.

[@lilitulee]

As a chef, she was doing a good job but the lack of trusting his word and forcing him to clang. Or, the best example, his whisking. She kept saying to stop but then that he couldn't stop and then he wasn't making enough noise. It was a bit overkill. I know how cutthroat a fast paced kitchen is and I know eggs are very time sensitive, but she could of loosened her grip a smidge.

[@idontknow-ms8mc]

"I can just crack an egg and fry it." He's hilarious! But right out the gate with a valid question, that she obviously didn't like. As a black person, it puzzles me when some people see black people acknowledging their own culture as divisive. And yet, when other people come on here, like for example, Alessia Cara, it was nbd to prepare a dish that spoke to their shared Italian heritage. She was really not patient with him like she was with other hosts. They should invite him back for a do-over. This made me cringe. BUT, it is also possible that there's stuff we didn't see off-camera that explains the dynamic. She just might not like his humor. Which she's entitled to. She might have been nervous too. It also might have been difficult to keep a personality like his on task.

[@Brklynsbaby]

She didn’t even have an attitude... she just seemed like she wanted to get things done quickly and on time

[@cpmvmaker1]

Home boy didn’t do too bad honestly. All he really messed up was the hollandaise, which is really hard to do for your first-time, when you have no idea about emulsions and “splitting”.

[@wavesonswim8738]

I want to see him to do this again. Hilarious

[@jus.h7537]

totally hilarious when he was whisking the bowl and not the yoke lol. Carla is amazing to know that hollandaise isn't happening just by listening. BUTTER~

[@adrianlindsaylohan]

Here's the thing, when they first started making these videos, it was with other chefs (like Gordon Ramsay). And the whole point of the videos were that average people couldn't keep up with professional chef, and that it's funny to see what goes wrong. Carla is just continuing this trend. But for some reason, they decided to abandon this concept and just have the nice leisurely cooking back to back thing now.

[@DrRippenShitten]
