    I don’t watch a lot of hot ones, but his is shoulder above heads better than any other episode of ‘hot ones’ I’ve seen. There have been other good episodes, but for a sauce/flavor breakdown Alton Brown does it phenomenally

      I watched it last night and the way he was just like, “oh, nice use of ginger”, “too much cilantro”, and “I can fix this!!” was great! He wasn’t focusing on the heat, he was focusing on the taste and it was great!

        It’s amazing to me that he can separate the discomfort from the quality, I went into the other "chefs"that have done the show looking for similar evaluation, and I’ve been disappointed every time. Alton Brown is truly another level of professional, I need to re rewatch good eats.
