Ben in his chef's jacket, ordering Barry around, is like a PE teacher with a whistle.

One thing I've learned about this channel: If there's ever a counter on screen, it's not a good sign.

[@erins9256]

you mean it is hilarious XD

[@DatCreepyUnicorn]

OR IS IT?

[@CalebKam]

I uh-ohed when i heard the ding, didn’t even saw the counter at first glance but i knew something is going down lol

[@Wannabe_Baby]

"I hate to say this, Baz, because I don't feel like you need reminding to leave a hob on." - Ben's sass towards Barry is the best. :D He's become sassier during lockdown.

[@MyMusicalMusa]

When I saw Barry and Ben actually in person together in the studio, not gonna lie, I screamed! Miss you all!

[@MariiBlubb]

So happy to see you guys back in the studio, also love the irony of telling baz to turn ON a hob

[@SortedFood]

We know right! 😂

[@matesafranka6110]

Barry uses bowls like Mike uses the word "interesting".

Ben was unbelievably sassy in this one - he’s replaced Janice!! 😂😂

[@SortedFood]

You think Janice can be replaced? We don't think she will be happy with this comment 😂

I almost dropped my phone Bazza turned a hotplate off without being told too. Good to see the flap back.

[@zapheil]

Mazzy Cassidy Don’t worry, he went back to forgetting to do so (10:00)

[@LuminousCorruption]

Barry's overconfidence gives me second-hand panic.

[@rizamelendez9820]

When Barry said "come on, give me a challenge", I remembered a video where Jamie said "he went to the cocky approach, and I can't wait to bite him on the ass." 😂

[@zapheil]

Riza Melendez Wait wait wait... was it “I can’t wait to bite him” or “I can’t wait for it to bite him” that he said?? The difference is key and I must know if Jamie really did do such a Freudian slip XD

[@mayce1922]

Why did I already know that quote is from the 20 min cooking challenge??? omd

[@oon-huing1729]

It says so much that Ben tried to help Barry and Barry just didn't believe him.

Undeniably a gold star for Barry, who sometimes is more savvy than for which he gets credit.

[@shilparajan2889]

I love all the individual and social-distanced content you guys have done these past few months. I really do appreciate the laughs and yumminess you've given us. BUT BOY ARE Y'ALL ENTERTAINING AS FUUU TOGETHER 😂😂❤

[@SortedFood]

Awww thank you for this. It really does mean a lot to the whole team.

[@heysaucemikehere1804]

I really want to thank the person who captions their videos, they never seem to fail to do it, and I feel they don’t get enough credit. 💕

[@btgreenday]

was it really a video if barry didn't yell "FLAVOUR" randomly while cooking

[@SortedFood]

LOLLLL

[@jennv.s.o.p1603]

😆

[@allistrata]

Does anyone else get a kick out of Ben's geeky laugh? It makes me smile. It's almost as perfect as Mike's hair.

[@malc5601]

Pass it on idea: 5 course tasting menu, each guy that enters the kitchen has to start a new dish whilst continuing to cook the previous dishes before them. Simplicity is key! Ordering would have to be worst to best at multitasking (or flip it around to inflict some pain)

[@lennardgelb9180]

I love how excited Ben is for like everything

[@Taegre]

"cooking is a challenge when you haven't done it in a long time" Barry, buddy...you've been locked inside your house for 3 months now. What have you been eating if you haven't been cooking?!

[@XandraLeigh]

Much easier dishes or takeout.

[@mr.9thdoctor615]

Mike had challenged himself and, in my eyes, gotten better t cooking during the lockdown. Jamie might have been cooking for his family and stayed at his competency level. Barry, on the other hand, seems to have gotten worse....

[@TheHaesoo1108]

Great to see you guys back in the studio again! the at-home videos were great, but these do (ironically) feel like home :) hope you guys are all staying safe and careful - and thank you for being our source of happiness throughout all these trying times :)

[@bvbfangirl778]

Ben quietly saying please dont when barry reached toward him killed me 🤣🤣

[@polyphonicgherkins]

Barry needs more of these, where he needs to follow a proper recipe instead of freestyling some nonsense onto a plate like in the cooking battles.

[@freethis222]

He needs 'em more than Mike did IMO!

[@lidort]

We like putting Barry in a box!

[@PixieII]

Yes! I struggle to watch him in the Pass in On videos - normally skip forwards, but in ones like this he's great

[@Wendy-iu4sg]

@PixieII I love watching him in the Pass It On videos. He’s comic gold!

[@Wendy-iu4sg]

We love you Barry, and of course everyone at Sorted Food! You made the lockdowns a lot more bearable and enjoyable. 😀

[@dannyzorc3259]

The camera cut to the burner still on is so classic. I love it

[@SPR1150]

Not gonna lie, when Barry said "Give me a real challenge", I immediately thought "Oh yeah, I'm gonna enjoy watching you squirm" Can confirm, I enjoyed watching him squirm.

[@ChrystalWater97]

😂😂😂Ok listen. I just watched a three minute ad for you guys. First of all to get you some more cents, second of all because it was a food gadget and the guy in the ad had the weirdest energy. The gadget is called a SLAPCHOP. And it does exactly what the name says (supposedly). You guys need to order it for the next gadget video. James is gonna hate that. (Oh and watch the ad for it hahahaha)

[@SortedFood]

We will have to check out CLAPCHOP LOL

[@zapheil]

Chrystalwater Was it the old one with Vince? That ad is over a decade old, so I’d be surprised if they’re still playing it, but the long version is 3 minutes and Vince definitely had the weirdest energy in it...

[@kittykatinabag]

Whoa whoa don't knock the slapchop! Best way to chop onions quickly if your knife skills are bad like mine

[@cribb]

It actually works pretty well. My Mom had the Pampered Chef version and I used to use it a lot before I moved out, but it is a real pain to clean

[@ImperfectlyLaura]

@@cribb I don't know if my family had the pampered chef version, but we definitely had one of these growing up and it definitely works pretty good for chopping. Dunno about cleaning; I never was the one responsible for cleaning it.

[@kittykatinabag]

I felt personally called out with that bowl counter. Even for the simplest of recipes I end up using half of my mixing and serving bowls

[@MsSupermegaawesome]

Ben's new sassy, no nonsense approach is the mood I'm adopting for the rest of this year.

[@nataliebrown6277]

It's lovely to have this back to normal! Missed the banter in the studio

[@kthomas8385]

I love that you guys are semi back in studio... It's the best part of my morning seeing a new video even though I don't mind rewatching the old ones... Lots of love from 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

[@DomenBremecXCVI]

Ben's sassiness has a level of pride in what he and James have done over the years with Barry, Jamie and Mike. It's like he's waiting for the day when they get rid of the doubts and actually follow their intuition.

[@sesugawaaruno830]

"use the bowl" I thought Ben was Janice for a second there!

when theres a counter for something (in this case its bowls by baz), you know its going to be an interesting video

[@rulitossimplyrulitos1088]

In words of one Mr. Currie, I am Barry Taylor. Unlike James, though, I am not saying it with sarcasm. Watching Barry felt like watching me, using so many bowls and pans, diminish the task ahead, yet arise triumphant with a slightly burned but delicious dish. I am Barry Taylor and proud of it!

Sorted you are absolute TONIC for the soul. Thank you so much to the team - this lock down would have been a heck of a lot different without you.

for a dish you apparently have to make a few times before you get it right, that does look exceptional for a first try for sure.
