The Bear S3 ep10 Carmen Learns Roast Chicken

I get the feeling the chef isn't acting but rather having a genuine conversation with Jeremy Allan White, filming it, and using it for the show. That's how they're able to get a good performance from non actors.

The late Anthony Bourdain did a special about basic cooking. The theme was that there are a handful of simple recipes everyone should know, but he had them demonstrated by chefs who specialized in those dishes. This chef, Thomas Keller showed how to make a basic roast chicken. The technique used in this video was very close to the demo he did for Tony. I forget all of the dishes, but one was boiling a lobster, a basic beef stew, an omelet, tomato sauce, etc.

[@mistrrhappy]

Came here to say the same. The french chef making the really nice cheeseburger was a hoot. "The cheese must be the American cheese."

I always wished there was a show that focused on "the basics" that made food with basic ingredients you could find in your home. I hate to have to buy stuff I'll never use again, like spices, or specialty items.

[@zaphodbeeblebrox1880]

@shawnmika9275 A couple of suggestions. Director Robert Rodriguez says to start by cooking things you already like. Play with the recipes, try different things. There's also Good Eats which started in 1999 (Food Network). I learned a lot from that show since Alton Brown doesn't just show how to cook the food, but explains why certain things have to be done the way they are. Personally, that helped me a lot. There's also Food Wishes (KZbin) with Chef John. I've enjoyed all the recipes of his that I've made. Last suggestion is Basics With Babish (KZbin). I hope some of these help.

[@kilimenjiro3753]

So there’s a bit of a complication with this scene: Keller has by his own admission mellowed out considerably in his kitchens in recent years, but at the height of the French Laundry’s fame he did have a reputation of being a bit of a jerk in the kitchen, whispering in his chefs’ ears during service, etc. So much so that Joel McHale’s character (David Fields) is apparently based on him, although with obvious exaggeration. That said, Keller is also known to be a very patient teacher with his chefs otherwise, like the scene depicted here.

[@alexandersmith6140]

It's also super-uncomfortable how The Bear is starting to glorify restaurant industry figures while it purports to explore how mentally screwed up the entire industry is. Imagine there was a show about working in the film industry, and it exhibited that industry's toxicity, with all the awful people and circumstances, etc. etc., and the lead character is someone that just wants to make a needlessly epic movie, and they're working with razor-thin profit margins and dealing with their personal demons after working with abusive directors and producers, etc., and then imagine that season 3 features a cameo by Harvey Weinstein. Everyone would ick out at how gross that is. And yet The Bear is doing exactly the same thing with the restaurant business.

[@slimj091]

It's not Thomas Keller teaching Jeremy Allen White how to cook that someone just happened to get footage of that they later decided to include in the show. I know Keller is showing Jeremy how to tie up a bird, but it was clearly scripted, rehearsed and almost certainly shot in several takes. I doubt Jeremy got any real cooking training.

I'm an army cook, even though the meals I prepare aren't gourmet. Originally aiming for a combat role, I ended up in the cook trade due to military needs. Despite initially planning to switch to artillery after basic and culinary training, I've found unexpected growth in my current role. The challenges have humbled me, taught me valuable skills in hospitality, and broadened my perspective. Approaching my second year in the military with the continued goal of transferring to artillery, I now appreciate the journey more. Alongside kitchen duties, I've participated in convoy ops, field patrols, and even had the opportunity to fire machine guns which adds a unique twist to the trade (Solider first, Cook second) mentality. Looking back, despite initial doubts, I've come to cherish the experiences and lessons learned, whether in the kitchen or on the field. This scene alone just reminds me of those little moments in the kitchen, being taught techniques from a veteran cook with the occasional lore novel level of story telling behind the subject on whatever topic lol.

Ramsay is my favorite chef, but Keller has the same heart about cooking as I do. When he says “we get to be part of people’s lives”. I’m not a chef, but I’m a solid cook, and my favorite food memory was one night 20 years ago or so. We had a big group of friends and our house was always the meeting spot. We partied a lot. One night we pulled the big wooden folding table away from the kitchen wall and ate family style, about 5 people to a side in the middle of the kitchen-steaks, potatoes, veggies. It was delicious, but when I think of that night, I don’t think of the food. I think of when my brother (not blood, but we considered each other brothers) got up from the table to take a call, and the rest of us took the food off the plate, drank his milk, and took a T-bone off my plate and just left the bone and empty glass for him when he got back, 😂.

The hope is that you can keep it from personal and have solid team communication at the end of service to talk about where you can all get better. If it's centered around quality and process and never crosses the line into personal you can all walk out the other side the better if willing.

He wasn't even acting anymore. The chef was really having a genuine conversation with the actor for twh scene

[@harryporter1595]

To me chef Keller and chef David are a perfect representation of light and dark, chef Keller uses moments from his past, constructive feed back and positive criticism to help motivate and improve on Carmy’s ability’s while chef David is a polar opposite never lets Carmy into his personal life and uses embarrassment and abuse as his way of improving Carmy, to me it’s a super good representation of a good and evil person

Holy fucking crap this is boneshakingly amazing

[@Bethune_Groundstaff]

thanks for uploading these

[@couchcinema389]

No problem!

[@genleeman]

I want a whole season of just this

[@onesojourner7514]

That bit, felt like a documentary.

[@TyillestTV2]

You can tell that Jeremy is trying to act nervous and intimidated. Chef Keller is just so calm and supportive that he can’t help but drop the acting.

"The Pope's Nose"!! LOL that's what my grandfather used to call it! Hadn't heard that in 60 years!

[@jculver1674]

As a Catholic, that bit made me laugh.

This is a great example of how to be a good mentor/leader

[@davidkey4272]

For those who do not know, that is Thomas Keller and he has been the top Chef in the US for several decades (some would say the world).

"try to do just a little better than the day before" mans got the mamba mentality

[@bushidotestu1997]

The sheer difference between this guy and Joel Mchale’s character is staggering

[@DannyLad619]

Take this scene, as brilliant as it is, then add that music. Magic.

[@leighannhayward7049]

Thomas Kellar is a brilliant chef

[@BiggusNickus]

I feel like they didn't give Thomas Keller a script but just told him to make a chicken the way he always does. It's such an organic moment, I love it.

[@MichaelThompson-sp1hi]

Man i wish we could all have a teacher, coach, or boss who talked to us like this

[@chopsjazz1]

I'm trying to imagine how Gordon Ramsay would treat that young chef.

[@StonedSpagooter]

The best move the show ever made was making the actors actually go to school and work in these restaurants I would not be surprised if this scene was actually shot in the french laundry on a real work day and he then went on to tie 100 more
