Want to cook like a professional chef? Set your TiVo on Dec 15 for “Gordon Ramsay: Cookalong Live”

Gordon Ramsay Kitchen NightmaresWeb Watch has enjoyed watching Gordon Ramsay yell at both potential and actual restaurant employees for years on HELL’S KITCHEN and KITCHEN NIGHTMARES, respectively. 

And in the end, we wholeheartedly agree with the yelling, as he is yelling for good reason the majority of the time.  All Gordon wants is to bring out the best in people. 

So while you may not agree with his methods, you can agree that when it comes to food he does know what he’s talking about. 

Which is why FOX has decided to import yet another British series for Ramsay that shows a decidedly softer side of the typically angry chef in GORDON RAMSAY: COOKALONG LIVE, airing live on FOX on December 15th.

turduckenEveryone jokes about ubiquitious holiday food, from the green bean casserole to the fruitcake.

But no other holiday food has garnered as much interest as the TURDUCKEN, an epicurean concoction of a deboned chicken stuffed inside of a deboned duck, stuffed inside a turkey.

Problems with Food Network Recipes: Jerk Chicken and Zarela’s Creamy Rice Casserole

Oaxaca Traditional Recipes
Oaxaca Traditional Recipes Cookbook by Zalera Martinez

Web Watch enjoys watching Food Network, and one of the limited-run series that Food Network has been airing for the past few weeks is entitled THE BEST THING I EVER ATE.

Each episode has various Food Network stars (Guy Fieri, Duff Goldman, Bobby Flay, Giada De Laurentiis, etc) raving about the Best Things They’ve Ever Eaten in different categories. If you’re a foodie, these are the places around the country that you should stick your head into to see what’s up.

One episode, entitled “Obsessions”, covered foods from Miami to San Francisco. Finally, an episode that featured three(!) restaurants that Web Watch has already visited. So far, so good.

Twecipes – Chefs Cook Up Recipes with Twitter

Everyone who uses Twitter knows that Twitter limits all tweets to 140-characters.

That means some people get very creative with their abbreviations and phrasing in order to squeeze every last bit of information into those 140-characters.

But even with that restriction, it is possible to write TWECIPES aka COOKING RECIPES in those 140 characters.

Six Chocolate-Bacon Recipes

A few weeks ago, Web Watch bought a Vosges Chocolate Bacon candy bar, just to see what all the fuss was about.

We get it.  It wasn’t perfect, but it had promise.  We shared the bacon-chocolate with others and reviews came back ranging from “ewwww” to “wow”.

So considering how many people are putting bacon into all types of desserts, Web Watch thought we’d throw some of the more interesting ideas together here.  Try some of these and report back what you’ve come up with.  Be careful and don’t eat too much: chocolate-covered bacon is also why you’re fat.
