Chewed UP
Chewed UP

CHEWED UP isn't just another food show. It's a full-contact kitchen reunion. Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon are back together stirring up unapologetic opinions, kitchen chaos, and comfort food that hits right in the feels. Think part cooking show, part lifestyle therapy session, with a side of "did they really just say that?" Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, the trio serves bold takes, soul-warming recipes, viral food trends, and the kind of unscripted banter you didn't realize you were hungry for. It's the reunion food lovers have been craving, served loud, messy, and made to binge.

Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon and Clinton Kelly welcome back Danielle Sepsy - the Scone Queen, bestselling cookbook author, and founder of The Hungry Gnome -for the ultimate chocolate chip cookie episode. They begin with a blind tasting of four popular store-bought cookies, comparing everything from artificial vanilla and milk chocolate to buttery flavor, crisp edges, chewiness, and dunkability before unanimously choosing their favorite. Then Danielle shares her recipe for a thick, New York bakery-style chocolate chip walnut cookie with a caramelized exterior, crisp edges, a tender center, and plenty of semisweet chocolate. She explains why cold butter, light brown sugar, chilled dough, and a hotter oven help cookies stay tall and thick; how resting the dough improves both flavor and texture; and why adding vanilla directly to the butter makes its flavor more pronounced. She also demonstrates how to balance baking soda and baking powder, avoid overmixing the flour, freeze pre-portioned dough, and bake fresh cookies whenever the craving hits. Along the way, Michael admits that he cannot stop after one cookie, Clinton revisits his infamous baking curse, and the group debates Long Island accents, astrology, group chats, staying friends with an ex, and which American cities deserve more recognition for their food. Michael argues that Los Angeles may currently be the best food city in America, while Cleveland and Pittsburgh also get their moment. Most importantly, the finished cookies are declared nearly perfect - although Michael insists he will only be able to eat four.   🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors:   Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.com   FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.com   Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/   About Chewed Up: Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon and Clinton Kelly welcome The Big Brunch finalist, Hungry Gnome founder, and bestselling cookbook author Danielle Sepsy for a full-on summer baking episode. Danielle makes an ultra-moist strawberry lemonade loaf with bright lemon flavor, a soft pound cake-like crumb, and a thick pink glaze made with freeze-dried strawberries. It is sweet, tart, colorful, and exactly the kind of snack cake that works with morning coffee, afternoon tea, or whenever you need a little taste of summer.   Along the way, Danielle shares the professional techniques she has learned from producing more than 15,000 baked goods a day, including rubbing lemon zest into sugar to release its oils, combining butter and oil for both flavor and moisture, adding extracts directly to the fat, using room-temperature eggs, choosing cake flour for a softer crumb, and baking the loaf low and slow to keep it evenly tender. She also attempts to break Clinton's infamous baking curse while Michael discovers that "fat carries flavor" may be the perfect excuse for gaining weight.   The conversation goes far beyond the loaf as Michael recounts his nightmare trip through New York traffic, the group debates whether everyone in Scooby-Doo was high, and Clinton and Danielle revisit childhood television, old-school Entenmann's cakes, and the lost tradition of neighbors stopping by unannounced for coffee. During fan mail, they discuss Clinton's alleged three-minute ab routine, Broadway, why people who do not care about food may be untrustworthy, and the pressure to either eat too much or feel guilty for eating at all. Their conclusion is simple: life is too short not to have the strawberry lemonade loaf.     🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors:   Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.com   FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.com   Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/   About Chewed Up: Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon and Clinton Kelly welcome Chef Jackie B. back to the kitchen for a summer episode built around Clinton's cherry almond torte.   Inspired by his grandmother's recipe, the simple dessert combines a buttery batter with peak-season cherries, sliced almonds, and a crunchy sugar topping, then gets served warm with vanilla ice cream. It is an easy, make-ahead dessert that works just as well with plums, peaches, or apricots, but a stubborn mixer, forgotten almond extract, parchment-paper confusion, and plenty of unsolicited help turn the demonstration into complete kitchen chaos.   Along the way, they share tips for freezing seasonal fruit, debate which nostalgic summer trends deserve a comeback, pitch Garanimals for badly dressed adults, revisit '80s music and retro swimwear, compare workout routines, and reveal their favorite fast-food orders. Michael also explains why his granddaughter has started calling him "Squishy Grampy" and makes a strong case for Heavy Handed serving the best smash burger in America.
Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon and Clinton Kelly welcome guest and co-host Chef Jackie "Sparkles" Bakula back to the kitchen for a summer appetizer that looks elegant without asking for much: creamy burrata topped with frozen strawberries grated into a light, icy "strawberry snow," then finished with balsamic glaze, flaky sea salt, fresh basil, black pepper, and garlicky toast.   It is cold, creamy, sweet, savory, and exactly the kind of dish to make when it is too hot to cook but you still want something beautiful on the table. Jackie also shares why she stopped chasing viral food trends, started cooking what she genuinely wanted to eat with her family, and finally found her own voice online.   Along the way, they play Crave It, Save It or Skip It with summer drinks, cocktails, and movies; debate iced coffee culture and the worst possible way to encounter a shark; revisit some of their favorite, and most questionable, dishes from The Chew; and talk about the family, restaurant, food-brand, home-renovation, and writing projects they are excited about next.   🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors:   Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.com   FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.com   Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/   About Chewed Up: Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon and Clinton Kelly welcome chef Amanda Freitag for a full-on canned tuna episode built around a blind taste test and a tuna salad sandwich that skips the mayo entirely.   They put four supermarket tunas head to head, comparing flavor, texture, and salt, and discover that the olive oil packed jars run away with it, including a budget pick that holds its own against tuna three times the price. Then Michael turns the winner into a tuna salad sandwich with romesco, Castelvetrano olives, scallions, flat leaf parsley, lemon zest, sherry vinegar, sliced tomato, and basil on grilled bread. It is briny, bright, and exactly the kind of pantry upgrade that proves canned fish can taste like dinner out. Along the way, they get into olive oil versus water packed tuna, childhood tuna salad traditions, teenage restaurant jobs, pasta water martinis, and a round of two truths and a lie.   Plus, Amanda (@chefamandaf) shares her bottled Freitag Cocktails and two fans win copies of Simply Symon Suppers.   🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors:   Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.com   FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.com   Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/   About Chewed Up: Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon and Clinton Kelly welcome culinary producer Leo Galletto for a full-on ice cream sandwich episode. They start with a blind vanilla ice cream taste test to find the best option for building an ice cream sandwich, comparing flavor, texture, richness, vanilla bean, and how well each one holds up.   Then Leo takes things in a summer dessert direction with a chocolate-covered strawberry-inspired ice cream sandwich: double chocolate chip cookies with strawberry jam, strawberry ice cream, chocolate fudge, and freeze-dried strawberries around the edges. It is nostalgic, messy, and exactly the kind of dessert that feels made for warm weather, late nights, and people who take ice cream seriously.   Check out Leo's Socials: @leotheburrito   🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors:   Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.com   FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.com   Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/   About Chewed Up: Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon and Clinton Kelly are joined by chef Marco Canora for a roast chicken dish that also explains one of his signature broths. Marco makes a crisp-skinned chicken with a lemon, garlic, rosemary, and olive oil pan sauce, then shows how those same comforting flavors inspired Tuscan Sun, a broth designed to drink like a savory reset instead of another cup of coffee.   Along the way, they get into broth as a daily ritual, why good stock matters so much in pan sauces, and how something deeply chef-driven can still feel simple, restorative, and easy to want again tomorrow.   This episode is brought to you by Brodo! Whether you're celebrating Dad this Father's Day or just treating yourself any day of the week, Brodo's rich, chef-crafted bone broths are the perfect pick-me-up.

Today on Chewed Up, Michael, Carla, and Clinton are joined by chef Michelle Bernstein in Miami Beach for a crispy, handheld twist on a local classic: Cuban sandwich empanadas. Filled with ham, lechón, Swiss cheese, pickles, and yellow mustard, these take everything people love about a Cuban and turn it into a golden fried bite. Along the way, they talk Miami Beach food culture, Latin flavors, live fire cooking, and why Michelle's version works so well: it keeps the soul of the sandwich while giving it a whole new texture and form.

Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon makes one of the dishes that followed him for years: a rich rotisserie chicken mac and cheese with goat cheese, fresh rosemary, and rigatoni. What started as a smart way to use leftover rotisserie chicken turned into one of his most requested recipes and a dish that stayed on the menu far longer than he expected. It is creamy, comforting, and surprisingly simple to pull together, especially if you already have chicken in the fridge and want to turn it into something that feels a lot more special. 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.com FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up: Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Today on Chewed Up, we take one of the most overhyped dishes out there and turn it into something way more fun: three different avocado toasts from three very different points of view. Michael builds his with herbs, citrus, olive oil, flaky salt, and chile. Clinton goes bright and throwback with grapefruit, red onion, honey, and poppy seeds. Carla keeps it simple and sharp with herbs and crispy shallots. It is part taste test, part argument, and part reminder that avocado toast is only boring if you make it boring.

Today on Chewed Up, we put 8 different salsas head to head to find out which one is actually worth buying. Fresh, jarred, chunky, smooth, mild, hot. We taste them all blind and judge them on balance, texture, freshness, heat, and how well they actually work with chips.  Along the way, we find a few surprises, argue over spice levels, and narrow the whole bracket down to the salsas we would actually buy again.  Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.com FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up: Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Today on Chewed Up, Carla Hall breaks down the biscuit techniques that can actually make your biscuits better. From grated cold butter and smart flour handling to stacking the dough for layers and using a muffin tin for more uniform drop biscuits, this episode is all about the little changes that make a big difference. She also shows how the same exact dough can turn into two completely different biscuits depending on the method, proving that technique matters just as much as the recipe.

For Hometown Week, Carla Hall brings an old school Nashville favorite to the table: the hot fish sandwich. This is not Nashville hot chicken. It is the classic version Carla grew up with: crispy fried catfish on white bread with yellow mustard, hot sauce, onions, and pickles.  Along the way, Carla, Michael, and Clinton talk about old Nashville, hometown food memories, community, and the kind of places where you waited for your food and actually talked to people. It is a simple sandwich with a lot of history behind it, and one bite brings Carla right back to childhood.  Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.com FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up: Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

For Hometown Week, Clinton Kelly brings a taste of Long Island to the table with one of his all time favorite dishes: spaghetti with white clam sauce. From childhood memories of digging little neck clams in Port Jefferson to stories from his restaurant days, Clinton shares the dish that connects him most to home while showing how to make a simple, briny, buttery clam sauce packed with garlic, parsley, white wine, and fresh clams. Along the way, Michael and Carla weigh in on restaurant menus, hot sauce people, and other strong opinions before jumping into a game called Clinton or Clam.

Spring has officially entered the Chewed Up kitchen — and Carla Hall is leading the charge with a bright, fresh, and ridiculously easy Spring Pea Soup that comes together in under 20 minutes. Built on a simple base of butter, onions, and stock, the soup gets blended with sweet peas, fresh herbs, lemon zest, and cream for a silky, vibrant finish that tastes like the season itself. It's light, elegant, and shockingly simple — the kind of dish that feels fancy but requires almost no effort. But this is Chewed Up… so naturally, things spiral. In between blending and seasoning, the crew dives headfirst into Peep Roulette, a chaotic tasting game featuring wildly flavored marshmallow Peeps — from cake batter to cotton candy to Dr. Pepper. Michael Symon is absolutely horrified, Clinton is thriving, and Carla is somewhere in the middle trying to keep it all together. The episode wraps with fan mail, hot takes on condiments, and a reminder that sometimes the best palate cleanser after total chaos… is a perfect bowl of soup. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Timestamps: 00:00 – Clinton kicks off spring cooking season 01:00 – Carla introduces her easy pea soup 02:30 – Building the buttery onion base 05:30 – Into the blender: peas, herbs, cream 08:30 – Straining and finishing the soup 10:30 – Peep Roulette begins 14:00 – Cake batter & cotton candy chaos 16:30 – Dr. Pepper Peep reveal 18:00 – Soup tasting + palate cleanse 19:30 – "Would You Rather" gets wild 23:00 – Sponsor: Frontgate 24:00 – Fan mail: favorite condiments 28:00 – Fan giveaway 29:30 – Final thoughts + sign-off 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Spring has officially entered the kitchen, and the crew is leaning all the way in. Michael, Carla, and Clinton kick things off with a spirited debate—everything from whether expensive ingredients make you a better cook to whether recipes should ever be "secret." Then things get even better when Carla introduces her culinary producer and longtime friend, Ariane Duarte, who brings serious flavor (and personality) into the mix. From Top Chef stories to behind-the-scenes realities of cooking competitions, Ariane shares how those experiences shaped her—and how food has always been about connection and joy. In the kitchen, Ariane walks the hosts through a build-your-own crostini situation that's equal parts elevated and approachable. Starting with homemade focaccia and whipped ricotta, the group layers on bright, seasonal toppings—think smashed peas with herbs, blistered vegetables, and strawberries with balsamic and almonds. The result? A perfect spring entertaining dish that's flexible, beautiful, and packed with flavor. Of course, no episode would be complete without a round of Chew It or Screw It, fan mail, and a few wildly off-topic (but hilarious) tangents—because on Chewed Up, the conversation is just as important as the food.

This week on Chewed Up, the crew tackles one of the biggest kitchen debates: is fresh pasta actually worth the time? Michael Symon brings a deeply personal dish to the table — ricotta cavatelli, a pasta he grew up making with his grandmother. As he walks through the process step-by-step, what starts as a cooking demo quickly turns into something more meaningful: a conversation about food, memory, and why cooking is about connection as much as it is about technique. Carla jumps in to help shape the pasta (with a debatable level of success), while the conversation bounces between unpredictable spring weather, fitness realities, travel stories, and what it really means to cook "well." The dish itself is a celebration of the season — tender homemade pasta tossed in a bright, silky brown butter sauce with peas, asparagus, lemon, and fresh dill. It's simple, vibrant, and packed with flavor. By the end, the verdict is clear: fresh pasta isn't just about the final dish — it's about the experience. And yes… it's absolutely worth it. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Timestamps: 00:00 – Cold open + spring weather chaos 01:00 – Spring cooking debate (comfort vs fresh) 05:30 – Is fresh pasta worth it? 06:00 – Making ricotta cavatelli dough 10:00 – Letting dough rest + pasta tips 13:30 – Shaping cavatelli by hand 15:30 – Building the brown butter spring sauce 20:00 – Cooking pasta + finishing in sauce 27:00 – Final plating + taste test 30:00 – Verdict: is it worth it? 31:30 – Fan mail + cooking origins 34:00 – Best trips + food memories 39:00 – Fan giveaway 41:00 – Chews Wisely game (spring edition) 43:00 – Wrap up 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

This episode brings the Chewed Up crew to Miami for a high-energy, audience-filled show packed with laughs, games, and bright, citrus-forward cooking. Michael Symon, Carla Hall, and Clinton Kelly kick things off with their signature unfiltered banter before diving into a lively round of "Chew It or Screw It," where the audience weighs in on wild Florida foods like iguana pizza, python sausage, and alligator ribs. Carla Hall then takes the lead with a refreshing pineapple–lime agua fresca infused with ginger, showcasing a simple, vibrant mocktail that can easily be turned into a cocktail with rum or tequila. The drink highlights bright citrus flavors and easy batching techniques perfect for entertaining. Clinton follows with a quick, seasonal citrus salsa that swaps tomatoes for fresh oranges, jalapeño, red onion, and herbs—proving that winter citrus can deliver bold, fresh flavor.

The Chewed Up crew wraps their Miami week at the W South Beach with a bold, flavor-packed finale alongside Miami-born chef and Food Network standout Mika Leon. Mika brings the group deep into authentic Cuban cooking, skipping the tourist-famous Cuban sandwich in favor of a true local staple: pan con lechón. Built from slow-roasted pork shoulder marinated in a garlic-heavy mojo, the dish delivers rich, citrusy flavor with perfectly crisped edges and signature chicharrón. The sandwich comes together with sautéed onions, a smoky-spicy cumin aioli, and a surprising crunch from shoestring potatoes — a combination that hits every texture and flavor note. Along the way, Mika shares her journey from baking in her mom's garage to launching a food truck and competing on Food Network, all while staying true to her Cuban roots. The conversation moves from Miami food culture to late-night hustle, parenting, and the realities of the restaurant industry. The episode wraps with a Cuban coffee demo (complete with espuma technique), a surprise guest appearance, and one of the most satisfying bites of the season.

This episode of Chewed Up brings bold flavor, vibrant energy, and global inspiration as Michael Symon, Carla Hall, and Clinton Kelly welcome the one and only Maneet Chauhan in Miami at the W South Beach. Known for her fearless approach to flavor, Maneet delivers a masterclass in transforming familiar dishes into something extraordinary. The centerpiece of the episode is her Indian-inspired coconut ceviche, where fresh fish is "cooked" in citrus and layered with garlic, chili, onion, and coconut milk. But the real magic comes from the finishing touch — a sizzling tadka of toasted spices, curry leaves, and aromatics that elevates the dish into something deeply fragrant, complex, and unforgettable. Beyond the food, the conversation dives into Maneet's culinary journey, the cultural depth of Indian cuisine, and how food connects people across languages and borders. The crew also plays a lively round of Chew It or Screw It, shares travel bucket list destinations, and wraps with a bright, effervescent Key Lime Cardamom Fizz — complete with a dramatic champagne saber moment. This episode is a celebration of fearless cooking, cultural fusion, and the joy of sharing food.

In this lively, sun-soaked episode of Chewed Up, Michael Symon, Carla Hall, and Clinton Kelly welcome the hilarious and wildly creative Damaris Phillips to the kitchen. Set poolside at the W Hotel during SOBE, the group dives into a playful, Southern-inspired take on classic tea sandwiches. Damaris introduces three nostalgic and flavor-packed spreads: pimento cheese, Benedictine (a creamy cucumber-dill spread), and ham salad. What starts as a refined "afternoon tea" concept quickly turns into a chaotic, triple-decker sandwich experiment as the hosts layer all three spreads into one outrageous creation. Along the way, the group shares stories, debates controversial food takes in a round of "Chew It or Screw It," and leans into their signature humor and chemistry. Damaris breaks down how simple these spreads are to make (or even buy), proving that anyone can build a beautiful and delicious sandwich board without cooking. The episode wraps with a fan giveaway featuring Damaris' iconic thrift store kitchen finds and a heartfelt moment reflecting on friendship, authenticity, and what makes their bond so strong.

From the stunning W South Beach, the Chewed Up crew welcomes acclaimed chef Scott Conant for a conversation (and cook) rooted in simplicity, technique, and deep culinary tradition. Scott shares the story behind his now-iconic reputation (yes, including the "red onion guy" moment), while revealing the philosophy that defines his cooking: less is more — but only when done right. In the kitchen, Scott prepares a delicate ricotta-based gnocchi packed with broccoli rabe, spinach, and basil, paired with a silky butter sauce stabilized with a clever cornstarch technique and finished with his signature Martone Street marinara. Along the way, he breaks down essential techniques — from properly salting pasta water (hint: not like the ocean) to extracting maximum flavor from simple ingredients. The episode blends humor, heartfelt storytelling, and serious culinary insight, as Scott reflects on family, his daughters, and the inspiration behind Martone Street — a tribute to the home where his love of food began. It's a masterclass in thoughtful simplicity — proving that the most powerful dishes often come from restraint, intention, and great ingredients.

The Chewed Up crew heads to Miami's iconic W South Beach for an episode filled with sunshine, seafood, and plenty of laughs. Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon kick things off talking about travel, St. Patrick's Day traditions, and Miami's vibrant restaurant scene before diving into a fresh Florida-inspired recipe. Michael Symon prepares grilled shrimp with citrus mojo sauce, a bright and garlicky dish inspired by the bold flavors of Miami and Cuban cooking. The shrimp are marinated in lime juice, lime zest, chili flakes, and olive oil before being grilled quickly to keep them perfectly tender. Meanwhile, Michael blends a vibrant mojo sauce made from sour oranges, garlic, onion, fresh herbs, salt, and pepper. The citrus-forward sauce brings bold flavor and brightness to the grilled shrimp. As the shrimp cook, the hosts chat about Miami food favorites like Cuban sandwiches and stone crab, debate beach vs. pool vacations, and share their favorite sandwiches and cheeses. Once plated, the shrimp are served over the bright mojo sauce and shared with the audience for a taste test — creating a simple, vibrant seafood dish that captures the spirit of Miami cooking. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome to Chewed Up from Miami 01:00 Filming at the W South Beach 02:20 St. Patrick's Day traditions and Cleveland parade stories 05:00 Michael introduces grilled mojo shrimp 05:30 Making the citrus mojo sauce 07:30 Talking Miami restaurants and food scene 09:00 Marinating shrimp with lime and chili flakes 10:30 How to cook shrimp perfectly 12:00 Pool vs beach vacation debate 15:00 Plating the shrimp with mojo sauce 17:00 Taste test with audience 20:00 Food talk: sandwiches and breakfast favorites 25:00 Sponsor shoutout: Frontgate and W South Beach 26:00 Fan mail and future theme ideas 30:00 Food debate: underrated fish 32:00 Fan giveaway announcement 34:00 Wrap up from W South Beach 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com W South Beach → The iconic oceanfront Miami hotel where every balcony faces the Atlantic. https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/miaws-w-south-beach/overview/ Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

In this episode of Chewed Up, Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon take the show to Miami Beach during the SOBE Wine & Food Festival, where Michael has performed cooking demos for nearly 25 years. Michael decides to cook something inspired by the location — a bright crab pasta packed with lemon, tarragon, crème fraîche, and buttery toasted breadcrumbs. The dish is designed specifically with Clinton and Carla in mind, blending flavors they love into one irresistible seafood pasta. As the pasta cooks, the trio dives into a lively conversation about food tourism, favorite comedy movies, and what makes a restaurant truly great — even when it's a tourist destination. Michael also shares tips on how to properly cook pasta, why crème fraîche works better than butter in some sauces, and how to keep delicate crab the star of the dish. Once the pasta is tossed together with jumbo lump crab and finished with crispy lemon-chive panko crumbs, the hosts rave about how the light sauce allows the seafood to shine. The episode wraps with fan mail questions, a discussion about Chinese takeout orders, and a lively audience giveaway featuring Michael Symon's mustard and bourbon tasting trays. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Timestamps 00:00 — Michael's cooking origin story 01:00 — Live from the SOBE Wine & Food Festival in Miami 02:00 — Michael introduces the crab pasta dish 03:30 — How to properly salt pasta water 05:00 — Building the sauce with brown butter and shallots 07:00 — Toasting lemon-chive panko breadcrumbs 09:00 — Adding pasta water and developing the sauce 10:00 — Crab meat and fresh tarragon join the pan 13:00 — Why crème fraîche works for seafood sauces 15:00 — Tasting the crab pasta 16:30 — Plating with crispy lemon breadcrumbs 18:00 — Clinton and Carla rave about the dish 19:30 — Fan mail questions 21:00 — Favorite Chinese takeout orders 22:00 — Lessons about success and restaurant culture 23:00 — Frontgate sponsor mention 24:00 — Audience giveaways 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

This episode of Chewed Up finds Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon recording live from the South Beach Wine & Food Festival, celebrating its 25th anniversary. The trio reflects on nearly two decades of friendship and television history while soaking in the chef-spring-break atmosphere of Miami. Michael kicks things off with a story about his dog Norman escaping in Los Angeles and the surprising community effort that helped bring him home. The conversation quickly turns into classic Chewed Up chaos — stories about lost pets, menopause brain fog, air fryer debates, and the realities of life and marriage after decades in the food world. In the kitchen, Carla Hall introduces a refreshing vegetarian twist on ceviche: a Watermelon–Buttermilk "Ceviche." Inspired by Miami's heat and vibrant flavors, the dish combines diced watermelon with cucumber, jalapeño, herbs, and a tangy buttermilk-lime dressing. The result is bright, cooling, sweet, spicy, and slightly creamy — perfect for warm weather or festival snacking. Carla demonstrates her efficient watermelon-cutting technique while explaining the inspiration behind the dish and the classic principles of ceviche. The hosts taste the dish and immediately agree it's a vibrant summer appetizer that works beautifully with crispy plantain or cassava chips. The episode also features fan mail, audience giveaways, and a celebration of the show's independent format — where the hosts can finally say whatever they want, cook what they want, and show the brands they actually love. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome to Chewed Up live from SOBEWFF 01:00 – Michael Symon's dog Norman goes missing 03:30 – The terror of losing a dog 05:00 – Carla introduces her watermelon "ceviche" 06:00 – What ceviche traditionally is 07:00 – Carla's watermelon cutting trick 09:00 – Buttermilk-lime dressing explained 12:00 – Tasting the dressing 14:00 – Building the watermelon ceviche 16:00 – Why Chewed Up is different from network TV 17:00 – Talking brands & cooking freely 18:00 – Air fryer debate 20:00 – Fan mail questions 22:00 – Clinton Kelly's "Gay Soup Diet" idea 24:00 – Fan giveaway announcement 26:00 – Live audience giveaway games 30:00 – Closing thoughts & festival wrap 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.co Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Chewed Up hits the road for the first time as Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon take the show to South Beach for the South Beach Wine & Food Festival. Instead of cooking in the kitchen, the trio kicks off their Miami week by bringing their favorite local foods and restaurants directly to the stage. Michael Symon begins with a legendary Miami institution: Joe's Stone Crab. He shares his long history with the restaurant — which has been serving guests for over a century — and walks through his personal ordering ritual. The hosts dig into Joe's famous fried chicken starter, followed by the star of the show: stone crab claws served chilled with mustard sauce, plus classic sides like creamed spinach and crispy hashbrown potatoes. Clinton Kelly follows with one of his own Miami comfort-food favorites from Versailles, the iconic Cuban restaurant. The table fills with ropa vieja, white rice, black beans, maduros (sweet fried plantains), and tostones (crispy green plantains). The dishes spark conversation about Miami's evolving food culture and Clinton's memories of living in Miami Beach during the Chew years. Carla Hall brings dessert with Fireman Derek's Key Lime Pie, prompting a surprisingly serious debate about what makes the perfect key lime pie — from crust thickness to the balance of tartness and sweetness. Along the way, the hosts share stories from the festival, spring break road trips to the Florida Keys, restaurant traditions, and the perks (and occasional chaos) of being recognizable in food towns. The episode wraps with a fan mail cooking question, where each host reveals a cooking technique they'd love to master — including sous vide, raw bar skills, braising, and bread baking — followed by a chaotic round of live giveaways with the audience. It's part food tour, part nostalgia trip, and a celebration of Miami's incredible food scene — all served with the signature Chewed Up humor. In This Episode Chewed Up heads to the South Beach Wine & Food Festival for a special live episode. Instead of cooking, the hosts bring their favorite Miami foods to the stage and share the restaurants they always visit when they're in town. Michael Symon introduces the iconic Joe's Stone Crab, serving fried chicken, chilled stone crab claws with mustard sauce, creamed spinach, and crispy hashbrown potatoes. Clinton Kelly follows with Cuban comfort classics from Versailles, including ropa vieja, black beans, rice, and plantains.

It's Home Alone Week on Chewed Up, and the hosts reveal what they actually cook when nobody else is around — no dinner parties, no expectations, just pure comfort food cravings. Carla Hall shocks Clinton Kelly and Michael Symon by going all-in on her ultimate solo indulgence: spiralized hot dogs topped with a rich, bean-less chili inspired by Detroit-style Coney dogs. What starts as a simple hot dog turns into a masterclass in texture, nostalgia, and flavor engineering. Along the way, the trio dives into the idea of "fun food" — the meals that bring joy whether you're cooking for yourself, your family, or your inner child. From pimped-out cereal creations and homemade sundaes to Nutella sandwiches and decadent cheese nights, the conversation swings between culinary technique and hilarious personal stories. Listeners also learn surprising food history (Detroit — not Coney Island — as the home of the Coney dog), cooking recovery tricks when recipes go sideways, and why spiralizing a hot dog creates maximum crispy edges and topping distribution.

The latest episode of Chewed Up is all about cooking for yourself — no compromises, no preferences to juggle, just pure comfort food made exactly how you want it. Michael Symon shares one of his favorite "home alone" meals: a walk-away French-style omelet, designed to deliver creamy, delicate eggs without the pressure of traditional chef techniques. Inspired by classic French omelets and legends like Jacques Pépin, Michael breaks down how to create soft curds, avoid browning, and let residual heat do the work — proving that great eggs are more about method than skill. Along the way, Clinton Kelly and Carla Hall dive into egg nostalgia, diner breakfasts, dishwasher debates, personal style confessions, and fan mail questions that spiral into hilarious tangents. The trio also discusses why people are so passionate about how eggs should be cooked — and why there's really no wrong answer.

In this episode of Chewed Up, lifestyle icons Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon are back in the kitchen bringing the heat — and the cheese. This episode centers around a crave-worthy, comfort-food classic with a twist: Portobello Mushroom Parmesan Subs. Instead of chicken, thick, meaty portobello caps are roasted until tender, layered onto hero rolls, smothered in marinara, and blanketed with mozzarella and Parmesan before being broiled to bubbly perfection. It's hearty, satisfying, and bold enough to convert even the most skeptical meat-lover. Between roasting mushrooms and melting cheese, the trio dive into unfiltered takes on meatless cooking, sandwich superiority debates, and what really makes comfort food comforting. Expect sharp humor, kitchen chaos, strong opinions, and a lot of cheese pulls.

This episode is all about turning a comfort-food classic into something new. Carla Hall introduces her "spice roulette" concept—take a familiar dish and spin the flavor profile around the world. For this episode, the "wheel" lands on Mexican inspiration, transforming traditional meatloaf with cumin, chili powder, poblano peppers, and a tangy enchilada-based glaze. Clinton Kelly and Michael Symon dive into nostalgic meatloaf memories—from Italian-style versions to Midwest family dinners—while discussing how simple flavor swaps can completely reinvent a recipe. The trio share practical cooking tips, like mixing spices separately before adding meat and keeping onions raw for moisture and tenderness. As the loaf bakes, the conversation expands to global variations, from Greek-inspired seasoning to Thai-style flavors and beyond. The result is a juicy, flavorful meatloaf served with a bright cabbage slaw for contrast, proving that classic comfort food can be endlessly adaptable—and just as satisfying the next day in sandwich form. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 – It's "Anything goes" week 02:00 – Carla introduces "spice roulette" concept 03:00 – Building the Mexican-inspired meatloaf mixture 04:00 – Tip: mix spices before adding to meat 05:30 – Family meatloaf memories and variations 08:00 – Processing veggies and moisture tips 11:30 – Texture check and oven plan 12:30 – Making the enchilada-based glaze 14:00 – Global meatloaf inspiration brainstorm 16:00 – Slicing and plating the finished loaf 18:00 – Tangy cabbage slaw pairing 19:00 – Taste test reactions 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ 🍽️ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

This episode dives headfirst into Valentine's Week with Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon talking love, dating pressure, and how food plays into romance. Clinton cooks his "Sexy Time Chicken," a bone-in roasted chicken with a tarragon beurre blanc designed to impress on date night. The hosts reflect on how expectations shift depending on where you are in a relationship — from early dating nerves to decades-long partnerships — and how romance evolves over time. They're joined by relationship expert and Tinder's resident expert Devyn Simone, who shares insights from dating culture today, including the importance of communication, emotional honesty, and shared values. She breaks down modern dating behaviors like ghosting and "situationships," explaining how younger generations are increasingly prioritizing intentional relationships and clear expectations. The conversation blends humor and honesty: from texting etiquette after hookups to whether cooking on a first date is romantic or too intimate. Meanwhile, Clinton walks viewers through making beurre blanc from scratch and plating a confident, restaurant-level meal at home. It's a mix of comfort food, real relationship advice, and chaotic kitchen energy — all in time for Valentine's Day. 💕 Guest: Devyn Simone — relationship expert & Tinder's resident dating expert https://devynsimone.com/ https://www.instagram.com/devynsimone 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 — Valentine's Week kicks off & dating pressure talk 01:00 — Introducing "Sexy Time Chicken" 04:30 — How to start the tarragon beurre blanc 05:00 — Guest intro: Devyn Simone 07:00 — Early relationships vs. long-term partnerships 12:00 — Beurre blanc tips and technique 18:30 — "Chew It or Screw It" dating game 19:30 — Cooking on a first date? 20:00 — Ghosting and texting etiquette 21:00 — Tinder data: shared values, communication & Gen Z dating 22:00 — Situationships explained 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ 🍽️ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Valentine's Week kicks off in the Chewed Up kitchen with a dish that literally sealed the deal: Matthew's Black Pepper Chicken Curry. Carla Hall shares the story behind the recipe her husband made during their early days together — a comforting, flavor-packed meal that still shows up whenever she needs a little extra love. Clinton Kelly, Michael Symon, and Carla cook their way through the curry step-by-step, from toasting spices and browning chicken to building a rich, aromatic sauce with ginger, onions, and coconut milk. Along the way, they talk about relationships, cooking as an act of love, handwritten notes, and the dishes that help "get your girl" — or keep her. The episode also dives into fan mail, career dreams still on the horizon, and what it means to "stage" in a restaurant kitchen. It's a mix of comfort food, chaos, and heartfelt conversation — exactly the energy you want heading into Valentine's Day.

It's Super Bowl weekend, and the Chewed Up kitchen is officially in party mode. While the Big Game looms, Clinton Kelly makes a bold — and controversial — declaration: nothing says football like baked brie. To prove his point, he whips up baked brie three ways, creating an effortless, crowd-pleasing appetizer lineup designed for real hosts who don't want to spend the whole party in the kitchen. As the cheese melts, the conversation predictably spirals. Carla Hall and Michael Symon jump in with strong opinions, hosting wisdom, and a few well-earned side-eyes as the crew spins the Chewed Up Hot Take Wheel. From overrated movies and questionable social media influencers to airplane etiquette, nutrition myths, and why convenience might be doing us more harm than good, nothing is off limits. Between rants, laughs, and bites of melty brie, the hosts share smart entertaining tips, debate the virtues of carbs, and remind us that the best parties don't need perfection — just good food, good company, and opinions you're willing to stand by. The episode wraps with tasting notes, Super Bowl send-offs, and a fan giveaway featuring Frontgate, proving once again that comfort food and chaos are always better together.

Super Bowl week is officially underway, and the Chewed Up kitchen is standing-room-only. Michael Symon declares this his happiest week of the year, Clinton Kelly is still confused about football rules (and referee flags), and Carla Hall delivers the ultimate handheld game-day snack: Ham and Cheese Croquettes crusted in Sweet Chili Doritos. The crew breaks down why Super Bowl food should be mobile, snackable, and fork-free, while Carla walks through the surprisingly simple science of croquettes — a rich béchamel loaded with ham, Gruyère, cheddar, Dijon, and crushed Doritos for maximum flavor. Along the way, they spiral into football fantasies, fifth-grade croquette trauma, Cool Ranch nostalgia, and one of the most unexpected moments in Chewed Up history: Josh Capon literally calling in mid-show and crashing the set. From Doritos-as-breadcrumbs brilliance to heartfelt reflections on careers, friendship, and following through in life, this episode delivers big laughs, real emotion, and a Super Bowl snack that absolutely earns its place on the table. Handheld, make-ahead, freezer-friendly, and dangerously addictive — these croquettes are a win no matter who takes the trophy.

These Super Bowl Smash Burgers are Michael Symon's go-to game day burger — fast, crispy, and impossible to mess up. This episode kicks off with chaos before the grill even heats up — literally. After a late-night hotel mishap involving Carla Hall, a glass door, and a perfectly timed "smash face," Michael Symon finds unexpected inspiration for the ultimate Super Bowl dish: the smash burger. Joined by Clinton Kelly, the trio dives deep into what makes the perfect smash burger: high-fat beef, aggressive smashing, caramelized onions, American cheese, and a firm refusal to accept brioche buns or ketchup. Michael walks through his go-to smash burger method, from beef ratios and potato rolls to his long-lasting secret sauce made with mayo, relish, horseradish, mustard, Worcestershire, and Crystal hot sauce. Along the way, the conversation veers delightfully off course — from condiment loyalties and Super Bowl habits to fashion hot takes, airport pajamas, restaurant sharing etiquette, and the underrated magic of Parmesan rinds. Clinton officially declares the Gay Soup Diet dead, Carla waxes poetic about potato rolls, and Nick earns a double smash complete with full "meat lace." The episode wraps with Super Bowl hosting ideas, a shoutout to Taste of the NFL, sponsor love, and a fan giveaway featuring Michael's Simply Symon Suppers cookbook.

It's the final day of Bean Week, and Clinton Kelly is taking full responsibility for unleashing it on the internet. What started as a scrappy, high-fiber experiment ends with one of the most chaotic, joyful episodes of Chewed Up yet. Clinton proves that beans deserve a permanent place in weeknight cooking with his lightning-fast Chickpea and Spinach Pasta—crispy chickpeas, garlicky greens, and a creamy hummus-based sauce that skips the cream without sacrificing flavor. It's cheap, fast, and unapologetically practical. Then things take a turn. Broadway composer and longtime friend Zina Goldrich joins the kitchen to "button up" Bean Week the only logical way possible: with perfectly chewy chocolate chip cookies and fully original musical numbers written for each host. What follows is part cooking show, part cabaret, part therapy session, and fully unhinged in the best way. Between cookies, pasta, impromptu songs, and a brutally honest round of Chew It or Screw It, the episode celebrates creativity, failure, friendship, and the idea that sometimes the best food (and ideas) come from just showing up and trying. Bean Week ends not with a whimper—but with jazz hands.

Bean Week rolls on with zero trends, zero gimmicks, and one of Michael Symon's all-time favorite comfort dishes: Pasta Fagioli. In this deeply nostalgic episode, Michael walks Clinton Kelly and Carla Hall through his old-school, soul-warming version of the Italian-American classic—thick enough to blur the line between soup and stew, and absolutely designed to be eaten with bread instead of a spoon. Along the way, the trio debates how to pronounce "pasta fazool," why peasant food will always beat trendy food, and how the best family recipes are rarely written down. As the beans simmer and the pancetta renders, the conversation drifts into family cooking traditions, immigrant kitchens, and the emotional power of food made with love. Michael shares stories of his Greek-Italian upbringing, Carla talks about cooking by feel instead of measurements, and Clinton champions simple classics over flashy plates. The episode wraps with an unapologetically aggressive Parmesan topping, a generous glug of olive oil, crusty bread for dipping, and the collective agreement that this is the kind of dish you make when you want to take care of people. Comfort food. No ego. No trends. Just beans, pasta, and heart. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS  00:00 — Bean Week chaos & bathroom escape jokes 01:00 — What really counts as Pasta Fagioli 03:30 — Why this dish means everything to Michael 06:30 — Rendering pancetta & building the base 10:00 — Family recipes vs written recipes 14:30 — Beans, pot liquor & why gentle simmer matters 18:00 — Peasant food vs trendy food debate 19:30 — The correct way to serve Pasta Fagioli 23:30 — Fan mail: Do they get on each other's nerves? 30:30 — Future shows & Chewed Up expansion 33:30 — Bean Week Fan Giveaway winner 35:00 — Final thoughts & sign-off 🙌 SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show https://www.frontgate.com FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door https://www.freshdirect.com Camellia Beans → Premium dried beans, grown and trusted for over 100 years https://www.camelliabrand.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ ABOUT CHEWED UP Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Bean Week officially begins — and it starts exactly how you'd expect: with black bean empanadas, loud opinions, and three hosts questioning their life choices in real time. In this episode, Carla Hall kicks off Bean Week with her black bean empanadas made using a foolproof cream cheese dough — the catering-world workhorse that refuses to be overworked. As Carla walks Clinton and Michael through folding, sealing, and not exploding empanadas in the oven, the conversation spirals into Blue Zones, aging well, bean myths, and why raisins deserve more respect. Along the way, Clinton Kelly defends Bean Week like it's Shark Week's misunderstood cousin, Michael Symon debates refried beans and ancient Roman bean superstitions, and the crew plays Bean or BS — settling once and for all whether beans contain the souls of the dead (spoiler: ancient Romans thought so). There's empanada pinching, dough talk, freezer tips, fan mail chaos, TV war stories, and a fan giveaway packed with Camellia Beans goodies. It's loud, comforting, slightly educational, and exactly how Bean Week was meant to start. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS  0:00 — Welcome to Bean Week (Immediately Unhinged) 2:10 — What Is Bean Week, Actually? 6:15 — Carla Introduces Black Bean Empanadas 8:30 — Cream Cheese Dough: Why It Never Fails 13:40 — Filling the Empanadas (Don't Overstuff) 16:05 — Bean or BS Game Begins 19:30 — Do Beans Contain the Souls of the Dead? 22:10 — Empanadas Out of the Oven 25:45 — Fan Mail & TV War Stories 38:30 — Fan Giveaway + Bean Bag Chaos 41:00 — Bean Week Dance Energy 🙌 SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show https://frontgate.com FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door https://www.freshdirect.com Camellia Beans → Premium dried beans from a 100-year-old family-owned New Orleans company https://www.camelliabrand.com CREDITS Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ ABOUT CHEWED UP Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

January is bleak. Everyone agrees. So Carla Hall shows up with the only reasonable solution: dessert. In this episode of Chewed Up, Carla makes a Moroccan-inspired apple and date crumble infused with cinnamon and cardamom — warm, fragrant, and unapologetically comforting. The trio talks winter survival strategies, the magic of dates (including a brief detour through Indiana Jones), and why crumbles are the most forgiving dessert in existence. The conversation drifts from food into culture, aging, and appearance — including a thoughtful, candid discussion about gray hair, confidence, and why women shouldn't have to negotiate their looks to exist professionally. It's funny, real, occasionally chaotic, and anchored by a dessert that quietly steals the show. This is Chewed Up at its best: cozy food, sharp opinions, and zero interest in pretending January is fine.

Winter is dragging, the sun sets at four, and morale is fragile — so naturally, Clinton makes soup. This episode kicks off deep in the gray-zone doldrums, where Clinton Kelly declares Bean Week a public service and introduces a Tuscan White Bean & Chicken Sausage Stew so comforting it might qualify as mental health care. Joining the chaos is Marysol Castro, the first female and first Latina PA announcer for the New York Mets, who instantly becomes family. The conversation ricochets from winter misery to wedding stories, control-freak confessions, Virgo placements, and an aggressive round of Chew It or Screw It that somehow includes pineapple pizza, early call times, and the Yankees. Between spoonfuls of lemony, rosemary-scented stew, the group debates baseball rules (poorly), driver rankings (competitively), and why soup may be the only reliable backup plan when television inevitably betrays you. It's cozy, chaotic, deeply comforting — and proof that beans always win. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — "If TV fails, make soup" 01:30 — Winter misery & Bean Week 03:10 — Introducing Marysol Castro 07:00 — Wedding stories & control freaks 10:30 — Soup build begins 14:45 — Mets talk (for beginners) 18:30 — Chew It or Screw It 27:00 — Soup finish & tasting 32:00 — Fan mail: beans for breakfast 37:00 — Fan giveaway 40:00 — Final chaos & goodbyes 🙌 SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door https://www.freshdirect.com Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials https://www.frontgate.com Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that provides a local experience https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy PRODUCTION CREDITS  Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ ABOUT CHEWED UP Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

January calls for comfort food, honest conversation, and recipes that feel like a reward—and this episode delivers all three. Michael Symon cooks a cozy riff on classic Italian flavors with Mini Meatballs Marsala, simmered in a mushroom-rich Marsala wine sauce that's deeply savory, slightly sweet, and built for cold days and tired souls. As the meatballs brown, the hosts dive into what comfort food actually means in winter: hibernation energy, food as travel, aging without apology, and the sensory power of cooking that brings you right back to your grandparents' kitchen. Along the way, they unpack meatball science (don't overwork it, keep the fat whole), why breadcrumbs matter more than you think, and how browning equals flavor. Fan mail sparks side quests into pesto hacks, measuring cup myths, dinner-party strategy, and the movies you'll always stop scrolling for. The result is classic Chewed Up chaos: deeply practical cooking advice, loud laughter, and a reminder that the best meals don't need to be expensive or complicated—just made with intention and sauce. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 – Comfort food season officially begins 02:10 – Why January demands sauce 03:45 – Mini Meatballs Marsala explained 06:30 – Don't overwork your meatballs (science + regret) 10:15 – Cooking as winter travel 13:20 – Fan Mail: How else to use pesto 18:45 – Measuring cups vs. reality 22:30 – Building the Marsala sauce 27:10 – What to cook for a small dinner party 31:45 – Movie debates you didn't ask for 35:20 – Plating, tasting, and meatball joy 38:10 – Fan Giveaway winner 40:00 – Final thoughts and full comfort achieved 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that delivers a local experience. https://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/ewradpy-canopy-jersey-city-arts-district/ 🔧 Production Credits Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ 🍳 About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

January is cold, resolutions are failing, and chocolate is doing the heavy lifting. In this episode, Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon start with one deceptively simple chocolate buttermilk sheet cake—and immediately blow it wide open. Clinton bakes a fast, sturdy, ultra-moist chocolate cake designed to be messed with. From there, the kitchen turns into a full-on dessert lab: peanut butter layers and butterscotch chips become party-ready petit fours, Carla builds a stacked, Black Forest–inspired showpiece with sour cherry jam and triple frostings, and Michael leans into coconut nostalgia with a ganache-topped chocolate coconut bar finished with sea salt. What starts as baking quickly becomes crafting—complete with piping bags, Jenga-style cake engineering, knife-dragging debates, and the philosophical question of whether decorating is worth the emotional damage. Along the way, the trio talks cake-cutting technique, party shortcuts, trifles, grandkids, baking patience (or lack thereof), and why this cake works as a base for just about anything. The takeaway: this isn't about perfection. It's about giving people a great cake and letting them go feral with toppings. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes ⏱️ Timestamps (YouTube & Spotify) 00:00 – Chocolate cake immediately causes problems 01:00 – Why January requires chocolate 02:00 – Sheet cake as a fast, even-baking hero 04:00 – Flavor lanes chosen: peanut butter, coconut, cherry 06:00 – Cake-cutting technique and Carla's knife standards 09:00 – Petit fours vs. patience 12:00 – Piping bags enter the chat 15:00 – Coconut cream + ganache build 18:00 – Taste tests and immediate regret (in a good way) 21:00 – Why this cake works for parties and trifles 24:00 – Fan questions and kitchen philosophy 31:00 – Giveaway reveal 34:00 – Final cake recap and controlled chaos 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that aims to provide a local experience. https://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/ewradpy-canopy-jersey-city-arts-district/ 🏡 Production Credits Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ 🍽️ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

This episode marks a milestone moment for Chewed Up as Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon celebrate the show's momentum with a full-blown Fan Fridge for the 50th episode—and this one delivers. Pulled from a viewer's fridge in Ohio, the ingredients scream Midwest practicality: ground beef, mashed potatoes, cheese, vegetables, and condiments galore. Carla takes the reins, steering the chaos toward comfort by building a Shepherd's Pie–inspired casserole, layering deeply browned beef, aromatic vegetables, herbs, and creamy mashed potatoes finished under the broiler. Along the way, the hosts spiral (productively) into conversations about road rage, kindness, kitchen discipline, mise en place, appliance overload, and why not every trend belongs on your countertop. The episode balances sharp humor with genuine warmth, landing on what Chewed Up does best: turning everyday food into something satisfying, approachable, and deeply human. It's messy, funny, oddly philosophical—and one of the strongest Fan Fridge wins yet. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Timestamps (YouTube & Spotify) 00:00 — Episode 150 celebration + Fan Fridge setup 02:10 — What's in the Ohio fridge 04:30 — Carla commits to comfort food 06:00 — Road rage, kindness, and public etiquette 12:40 — Mise en place explained (and defended) 17:00 — Building the beef base + seasoning 22:30 — Mashed potatoes get upgraded 28:40 — Broiler finish + plating 31:00 — Tasting and verdict 37:00 — Final thoughts + sign-off 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Caraway → Non-toxic cookware, even heating, easy cleanup, up to 20% off for the holidays. https://carawayhome.com/chewedup Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that aims to provide a local experience. https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy Production Credits Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's Deep Winter Comfort Week, and Michael Symon is on a mission to rescue chicken tenders from their frozen-food reputation. The result? Crispy, feta-brined chicken tenders that are juicy, crunchy, and packed with flavor—finished with a DIY hot honey that hits sweet, spicy, and tangy all at once. Along the way, Clinton Kelly and Carla Hall dive into comfort food nostalgia, regional fried-chicken debates, hot honey's cultural takeover, and why you should always trust what actually tastes good—no matter what the internet tells you. There's crunchy crust talk, brining secrets, sauce debates, and just enough chaos to remind you this is Chewed Up. This episode is a masterclass in making familiar food better without overthinking it—and a reminder that fried chicken, when done right, is undefeated. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS (YouTube & Spotify) 00:00 – Welcome to Deep Winter Comfort Week 02:45 – Why chicken tenders are having a moment 04:00 – Feta brine: what it does and why it works 07:10 – Flour, egg, breadcrumb (everything seasoned) 10:30 – Frying for maximum crunch 13:00 – Making hot honey from scratch 17:00 – Sauce heat debates + acid balance 21:00 – Fan mail & comfort food confessions 28:00 – Is hot honey a trend or a staple? 34:00 – Fan giveaway winner 🙌 SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Señorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margarita made with real juice and organic agave. https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20 Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that provides a local experience. https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy PRODUCTION CREDITS Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ ABOUT CHEWED UP Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

January hits hard—and this episode meets it with a pot of deeply comforting, no-nonsense soup. Clinton Kelly brings one of his favorite cold-weather staples to the Chewed Up kitchen: Chickpea, Chicken & Ditalini Soup. It's thickened naturally with smashed chickpeas, loaded with frozen veggies, tender shredded chicken, and finished with lemon, Parmesan, and olive oil. Simple, smart, and exactly what winter demands. As the soup simmers, the conversation goes everywhere: growing up afraid to touch the thermostat, how cold weather hits harder as you get older, sleeping temperatures that spark genuine disbelief, and Clinton's infamous "Gay Soup Diet"—a January survival strategy that involves staying home, eating soup, and minding your business. The Bean Week concept makes a controversial reappearance (and is immediately vetoed… again), soup earns its rightful place as a full meal, and the trio digs into why comfort food matters—emotionally and practically—when winter drags on. Along the way, they tackle listener questions, kitchen life lessons, stress cooking habits, whistling controversies, and the eternal truth: frozen vegetables are a gift. Warm, funny, honest, and deeply relatable, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the best solution is a big bowl of soup and zero apologies. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Welcome to Chewed Up + winter survival mode 02:00 The Gay Soup Diet explained 05:30 Building flavor: onions, garlic, chickpeas 07:00 Why smashing chickpeas changes everything 10:00 Thermostat wars & cold-weather trauma 14:00 Pasta, carrots, and soup texture talk 18:00 Is soup actually a meal? 20:30 Finishing touches: lemon, cheese, olive oil 24:00 Bean Week returns (and gets vetoed) 29:00 Listener Q&A: kitchen life lessons 34:00 Fan Giveaway winner announced 36:00 Final thoughts + why this soup works 🙌 SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Señorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margarita made with real juice and organic agave. https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20 Caraway → Non-toxic cookware, even heating, easy cleanup, up to 20% off for the holidays. https://carawayhome.com/chewedup Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that aims to provide a local experience. https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas for mindful sipping without the booze. https://www.casamaraclub.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's Fan Fridge Day, and Cindy E from McKinney, Texas hands over her refrigerator — chaos, Reese's cups, miso, cabbage, and all. What follows is a classic Chewed Up spiral: Clinton is emotionally unprepared, Carla is optimistic, and Michael Symon calmly turns fridge odds and ends into something legitimately impressive. The star of the episode is cabbage — an ingredient Michael argues is wildly underrated. He chars a full round of cabbage in bacon fat, bastes it with brown butter and miso, and finishes it with a creamy, tangy yogurt dressing loaded with scallions, avocado, mustard, lemon, and crispy bacon. Pickled red onions save the day at the last second, and suddenly the "healthy-ish" Fresh Start Week actually delivers. Along the way, the trio riffs on Gen X childhoods, grilled romaine trauma, miso's misunderstood versatility, soft-scrambled eggs, restaurant ordering regrets, and why soufflés are always worth ordering out. The episode wraps with real cooking wisdom — fat, acid, texture — and a fan giveaway that proves Clinton Kelly has fully entered his bird-watching era. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Timestamps 00:00 – Clinton opens emotionally unprepared 01:20 – Fan Fridge Day explained 02:40 – Cindy E's fridge inventory chaos 05:45 – Michael declares cabbage underrated 07:10 – Bacon starts rendering 10:00 – Gen X childhood and hose water discourse 13:30 – Frontgate shout-out 15:20 – Brown butter + miso basting begins 18:40 – Dressing comes together 22:30 – Pickled red onions save the dish 25:00 – "Charred Cabbage and Friends" is named 28:00 – Cooking philosophy: fat, acid, texture 35:10 – Fan Giveaway: Bird Buddy 37:00 – Wrap-up and thanks 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Señorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margarita made with real juice and organic agave. https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20 Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that aims to provide a local experience. https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

This Episode brings a true heavyweight into the Chewed Up kitchen: legendary chef Charlie Palmer, one of the architects of modern American cuisine. Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon dig into how Palmer helped redefine fine dining long before "farm-to-table" became a buzzword — from sourcing ingredients directly from farmers to building kitchens where comfort and technique actually coexist. Charlie walks through his career arc, from high-school home ec to Michelin stars, while the group debates the evolution (and occasional nonsense) of Michelin ratings, TikTok recipes, sous-vide shortcuts, and what American cuisine even means when innovation never stops. Along the way, they cook a deeply comforting yet refined paccheri pasta with koginut squash purée, brown butter, Parmigiano, and stracciatella — a dish that proves restraint can be louder than excess. The conversation stays loose, honest, and funny, touching on mentorship, legacy, cooking with patience, raising the next generation of chefs, and why some rules are worth breaking while others are worth mastering. It's thoughtful without being precious, elevated without being annoying — exactly how Palmer cooks. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Guest Charlie Palmer James Beard Award-winning chef and restaurateur Instagram: @chefcharliepalmer Website: https://www.charliepalmer.com Timestamps 00:00 – Charlie Palmer's origin story (home ec > culinary legend) 03:00 – Defining American cuisine 07:30 – Farm-to-table before it was trendy 11:00 – Building the squash purée 15:00 – Michelin stars: chew it or screw it? 20:30 – Sous-vide debate and cooking patience 26:00 – Plating the pasta 30:30 – Tasting + final verdict 36:00 – Fan Giveaway 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://www.frontgate.com Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas for mindful sipping without the booze. https://www.casamaraclub.com Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that delivers local flavor and style. https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy Production Credits Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

This Episode kicks off the new year the Chewed Up way: honest conversation, zero fluff, and food that actually means something. Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon welcome 2026 with a deep dive into intentions vs. resolutions, why most people quit by February, and how to reframe success so it actually sticks. Carla takes the lead in the kitchen with a Southern New Year's Black-Eyed Pea Stew with Collards & Rice, a dish rooted in tradition, symbolism, and straight-up comfort. Black-eyed peas for luck, greens for prosperity, rice to bring it all together — it's a bowl that feels like a reset button. Joining the table is Deb Grayson Riegel, executive coach, author, and co-creator of The Me Menu. Deb brings the heat on mindset: why intention beats resolution, how values quietly run your life, and why doing the work (yes, the boring part) is non-negotiable. Between stories about New York, family, boundaries, and the realities of growth, the episode lands exactly where Chewed Up lives best — equal parts funny, thoughtful, and deeply human. This isn't "new year, new you." It's "new year, do it smarter."

This New Year's Eve episode is a masterclass in why simple food still wins. Michael Symon digs into a deeply comforting Pork & Kraut Stew—slow-simmered pork shoulder, tangy sauerkraut, caraway, and smoke—while the table debates tradition, shortcuts, and what actually matters when you're cooking for people you love. The conversation stays unfiltered and sharp as the trio breaks down why certain "old" dishes never die, how regional food memory shapes taste, and why over-engineering comfort food is usually a mistake. Expect laughs, strong opinions, and the kind of cooking that smells better the longer it sits. This episode is about trusting the pot, letting ingredients do the work, and not apologizing for food that sticks to your ribs. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Timestamps (YouTube & Spotify) 0:00 – Welcome back + cold-weather cravings 3:10 – Why pork shoulder is undefeated 7:45 – Building flavor without overthinking it 12:30 – Sauerkraut fear is learned (and wrong) 18:05 – Comfort food vs. "chef food" 23:40 – When to stop touching the pot 28:10 – Final seasoning, serving, and bread talk 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door https://www.freshdirect.com Señorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margarita made with real juice and organic agave https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20 Caraway → Non-toxic cookware, even heating, easy cleanup, up to 20% off for the holidays https://carawayhome.com/chewedup Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show https://frontgate.com Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that delivers a local experience https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas for mindful sipping without the booze https://www.casamraclub.com Production Credits Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's New Year's Eve week, and Chewed Up kicks things off exactly how it should: zero resolutions, maximum snacks, and a surprise reunion with one of the most beloved behind-the-scenes legends from The Chew. Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon welcome back Chef Jackie "Sparkles" Bakula, now all grown up, married, and juggling two kids — but still bringing the same calm-in-the-chaos energy that once saved countless live TV moments. The group reminisces about freezing studio kitchens, feeding entire audiences from postage-stamp prep spaces, and the early days of viral food before "viral" was a job description. On the food front, this episode is a New Year's Eve party blueprint. Carla and Jackie build the Parm & Prosciutto Chip Tower — a dangerously simple mountain of kettle chips baked with honey and Parmigiano, finished with crispy prosciutto and aged balsamic. It's salty, sweet, crunchy, and impossible to stop eating. Drinks flow freely, from Carla's Cranberry Ginger Fizz mocktail to Michael's smoked-maple Old Fashioned, and Clinton's glitter-rimmed Greyhound makes its sparkly debut. Michael also delivers a Cleveland-approved upgrade on pigs in a blanket using smoky kielbasa and puff pastry — proof that people don't want fancy, they want pigs. Between bites, the crew plays Chew It or Screw It, dragging air fryers, New Year's resolutions, reality cooking competitions, and caviar-on-everything straight into the group chat of truth. The episode wraps with fan mail, quick-lunch confessions, and a Frontgate fan giveaway that feels appropriately indulgent for the end of the year. Bottom line: this episode is loud, nostalgic, snack-heavy, and exactly how you should ring in the new year.

It's Christmas morning in the Chewed Up kitchen—and things unravel fast. Carla Hall delivers the ultimate Christmas morning cinnamon rolls: soft, sticky, make-ahead perfection with cream cheese glaze and orange zest. Clinton Kelly paints the coziest holiday picture imaginable… before fully melting down on camera. Michael Symon tries (and fails) to keep things on track while Clinton apologizes directly to Baby Jesus. Along the way, the trio dives into Christmas traditions, controlled vs. chaotic gift opening styles, favorite holiday albums, bagels vs. cinnamon raisin heresies, and the power of food as love language. There's fan mail, holiday nostalgia, a Frontgate giveaway, and one of the most unhinged endings in Chewed Up history.

Christmas Eve is not for half-measures — and this episode proves it. Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon welcome longtime friend and Italian cooking legend Rocco DiSpirito for a loud, nostalgic, seafood-forward celebration of Christmas Eve traditions. The conversation dives into Feast of the Seven Fishes lore, growing up Italian-American, learning to cook on early Food Network, and why certain dishes are reserved for exactly one night a year. Rocco walks the crew through his family's iconic blue crab pasta — a slow-simmered, shell-infused sauce that delivers deep ocean flavor without chunks of seafood in sight. Along the way, the group debates kitchen gadgets that should disappear forever, breaks down holiday hosting nightmares, plays Chew It or Screw It, and shares why Christmas Eve was always the real party. The episode ends with a stunning, old-world fruit and nut table runner — proof that the table itself can be part of the tradition. This is not weeknight food. This is memory-making food. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 — Air fryer opinions immediately get dangerous 01:45 — Why Christmas Eve was always the real party 03:00 — Rocco DiSpirito enters (and the nostalgia hits) 08:10 — Breaking down the Feast of the Seven Fishes 11:00 — Blushing crab shells = flavor 15:20 — Chew It or Screw It: holiday edition 21:30 — Deglazing, vermouth, and why heat matters 27:40 — Angel hair pasta danger zone 31:10 — Why this pasta isn't about chunks of seafood 35:30 — Holiday hosting problem-solving 39:00 — Kitchen gadgets that should disappear 44:20 — Rocco's Christmas Eve fruit & nut table runner 50:30 — Fan giveaway winner 53:00 — Final bites + Christmas wishes 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials https://www.frontgate.com Señorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margarita made with real juice and organic agave https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20 Caraway → Non-toxic cookware with even heating and easy cleanup https://carawayhome.com/chewedup Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand offering a local-first experience https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's Christmas week, emotions are high, and Clinton Kelly is on a personal mission: redemption. After last week's cookie chaos, Clinton returns to the kitchen with the dish that defines love in his family — rolled lasagna. This is not a weeknight meal. This is a full-commitment, clear-your-schedule, cook-with-intention holiday classic. Inspired by Don Angie in New York City but rooted firmly in Clinton's Italian-American upbringing, this lasagna features slow-cooked bolognese, creamy béchamel, fresh pasta sheets, mozzarella, Parmigiano-Reggiano, and a simple butter-onion tomato sauce based on Marcella Hazan's iconic method. Everything is layered, rolled, sliced, and baked into individual spirals that deliver perfect balance in every bite. Along the way, Clinton, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon dig into why lasagna is reserved for the people you actually love, the cultural difference between baked ziti and holiday lasagna, and why some dishes are meant to take time. There's also plenty of side conversation — holiday traditions worth keeping (and retiring), the best sandwiches they've ever eaten, ugly sweater debates, and a reminder not to be a "DRIP" at holiday parties. The result? A deeply satisfying dish, a fully redeemed Clinton, and one of the coziest episodes of Chewed Up yet. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes ⏱ Timestamps 00:00 – Holiday chaos, cookie trauma, and Clinton's redemption arc 02:15 – Why lasagna is a "love dish" in Italian-American families 04:45 – Don Angie inspiration and rolled lasagna method 08:30 – Building the bolognese (and why it takes hours) 10:45 – Béchamel, nutmeg, and the butter-onion tomato sauce 12:30 – Rolling, slicing, and assembling the lasagna 15:00 – Baking tips, make-ahead tricks, and freezing options 18:00 – Taste test and final verdict 20:00 – Holiday traditions worth keeping (and retiring) 25:00 – Best sandwiches ever debate 35:00 – Fan giveaway winner 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Señorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margarita made with real juice and organic agave. https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20 Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton focused on local experiences. https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas for mindful sipping without the booze. https://www.casamraclub.com 🔗 Production Credits Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's six days before Christmas, the kitchen is freezing, the heater is broken, and somehow the Chewed Up crew thought this was the perfect moment for a cookie swap. Bold move. Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon dive headfirst into one of the most dangerous holiday traditions known to humankind: trading cookies. Fans submitted recipes, the hosts picked their favorites, and each brought a deeply personal cookie to the table—Michael's nostalgic pignoli cookies, Carla's soft-and-chewy lemon ginger crinkle cookies, and Clinton's classic chocolate-dipped butter cookies. What follows is a masterclass in why live cooking plus cold temperatures plus piping bags equals chaos. Clinton battles frozen dough, frozen eggs, and his own sanity. Carla calmly explains technique while finishing cookies like a professional. Michael thrives in the disorder, introduces an on-the-fly Christmas Cookie edition of Chew It or Screw It, and watches Clinton unravel in real time. Along the way, the trio debates overrated Christmas movies, controversial cookie opinions, internet comments that should've stayed in drafts, and why cookie swaps are emotionally risky. The episode ends with a massive Goldbelly fan giveaway, proving that even when everything goes sideways, Chewed Up still delivers. Holiday spirit: present. Execution: questionable. Entertainment value: extremely high. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes ⏱️ Timestamps  00:00 – Cold open chaos & cat-on-the-counter accusations 01:00 – Cookie swap explained (and immediately regretted) 03:30 – Fan cookie submissions + holiday food nostalgia 06:30 – Clinton starts butter cookies (mistakes begin) 08:30 – Frozen egg yolk incident 11:00 – Frontgate sponsor callout 14:00 – Christmas Cookie Chew It or Screw It 18:00 – Carla finishes lemon ginger crinkle cookies 22:00 – Clinton pipes cookies under extreme stress 24:00 – Chocolate dipping, sprinkles, and betrayal 26:00 – Cookie tasting & swap reactions 28:00 – Controversial Christmas cookie opinions 30:30 – Overrated Christmas movies debate 31:30 – Goldbelly fan giveaway winners 33:00 – Wrap-up and holiday sendoff 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://www.frontgate.com Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas for mindful sipping without the booze. https://www.casamaraclub.com FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door. https://www.freshdirect.com Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that delivers a local-first experience. https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy 🏡 Production Credits Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ 🎙️ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

This Chewed UP episode drops us straight into holiday mode — Carla is on a numerology bender, Clinton is still recovering from a decades-old "end cut" customer meltdown, and Michael is laser-focused on the only thing that matters this week: a perfect, deeply flavored, foolproof holiday prime rib. Michael walks Clinton and Carla through his signature method — seasoning the rib a day ahead, removing the bones to use as the roasting rack, layering garlic, thyme, and rosemary into an "aromatic bed," and choosing between a slow roast followed by a blast of heat, or a classic high-temp roast. There's a MasterClass-level breakdown on thermometers, fat rendering, resting times, and why Prime Rib should not be served "still mooing." Then comes the sauce segment — Clinton and Carla are downright feral over Michael's horseradish sauce, and the trio devolves into a debate about sauerkraut, gut health, and "background funk." Michael builds a glossy Pop Mustard Jus, balancing beef stock, mustard seeds, butter, and balsamic for a tangy, rich finish that the hosts cannot stop spooning over everything. The conversation veers through holiday dining stress, French dip nostalgia, waiter PTSD, glitter-packed Christmas cards, and Clinton's theory that everyone should work in restaurants before allowed into society. Carla tries to reset the room with numerology ("It's a nine year — shed your emotional skin!"), and Michael refuses to do math. The episode wraps with a double fan giveaway — two customized Frontgate aprons — and one very messy cutting board full of prime rib bones that Michael absolutely does not plan to share. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Carla opens with numerology & holiday pressure 01:00 – Michael introduces his prime rib technique 02:00 – Removing the bones & using them as the roasting rack 03:00 – Seasoning method + aromatics bed 04:00 – Slow roast vs. hot roast method 05:00 – Thermometers, resting, and perfect holiday timing 06:00 – Building the horseradish sauce (Carla is thrilled) 07:30 – Sauerkraut, gut health, and Michael's grandfather 09:00 – Clinton + Carla discuss dining… and digestion 10:00 – Korean steakhouse trip + beef overload 11:00 – Pop Mustard Jus build 12:00 – Slicing prime rib + French dip nostalgia 13:00 – Clinton's traumatizing "end cut" experience 14:00 – Holiday grace, restaurant etiquette 16:00 – Glitter Christmas cards & hoarding confessions 18:00 – Michael's backwards jogging story 20:00 – Tasting the prime rib 33:00 – Fan Giveaway: Two Customized Frontgate Aprons 34:00 – Outro + cookie swap tease SPECIAL THANKS  Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection seen on the show. https://frontgate.com Señorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margarita made with real juice and organic agave. https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20 FreshDirect → Ingredient partner providing groceries for the show. https://www.freshdirect.com Canopy by Hilton → Lifestyle hotel brand bringing local, modern hospitality. https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Carla and Michael weigh in on viral cooking traps, emotional kitchen moments, and party-etiquette crimes while the crew spirals into holiday-season honesty.

Carla builds a full vegetarian main from a single cauliflower — buttery roasted steaks, a velvety purée made from the leftover florets, and a deeply savory herbed gravy. Meanwhile, Clinton and Michael derail into a Christmas-movie tournament, a "bean week" pitch, emotional support celery, Dutch oven war stories, and a fan-mail debate on chain restaurants. The result? A dish that proves cauliflower can absolutely be the star of the holiday reset menu. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS (Based on transcript timecodes) 00:00 — Cold open: "Love Actually is the worst movie ever made." 00:30 — Holiday reset vibes + intro 01:05 — Carla reveals the roasted cauliflower steak dish 02:00 — Double-cauliflower explanation: steaks + purée 03:00 — Blender trauma revisited 04:00 — Making the steak rub: smoked paprika, olive oil, toom, Dijon 05:00 — On-camera sear + Costco toom obsession 06:00 — Vegetarian life, protein intake, angry vegetarians 07:00 — Clinton's "bean week" pitch 08:15 — The Dutch-oven conversation goes off a cliff 09:00 — "Bean Week will be the new Shark Week" 11:30 — Christmas-movie elimination game 15:00 — Michael discovers the cast of Love Actually 16:00 — Breadcrumbs and gravy build 18:00 — Celery wars 19:00 — Making the cauliflower purée 20:00 — Blender works… somehow 21:00 — Fan Mail: Chain restaurant confessions 22:00 — McDonald's breakfast truths 25:00 — Clean kitchens vs. dirty kitchens 27:00 — Fixing lumpy gravy with a chinois 28:00 — Heating purée, assembling the plate 29:00 — Giveaway winner picked (Caraway Bar Tool Set) 31:00 — Tasting the dish — everyone's shocked 32:00 — How to add protein (silken tofu or egg granada) 33:00 — Wrap-up and sign-off SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Caraway → Non-toxic cookware, even heating, easy cleanup, up to 25% off for the holidays. https://carawayhome.com/chewedup Señorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margarita made with real juice and organic agave. https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20 Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand designed to give you the best local experience. https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ ABOUT CHEWED UP Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Amy Sedaris joins Clinton, Carla, and Michael for an absolutely unmanageable half hour of Greek food, pine-cone crafting, and comedic gold. Michael teaches his technique for Spanakopita Triangles—sautéing fresh spinach, mixing salty Greek feta with dill, scallions, pine nuts, and a little garlic, then folding and buttering phyllo "like little footballs" before baking. Meanwhile, Clinton and Amy build gnome ornaments using pine cones, fabric glue, googly eyes, and sheer chaos.

Liz Symon crashes the kitchen and instantly takes over — in the best way. She bakes her famous Orange Olive Oil Cake, bosses around Michael, reminisces about marriage mishaps, Wordle dominance, and accidental poisoning attempts, and gets Clinton and Carla cackling. The cake? Foolproof, citrusy, incredibly moist, and easily the quietest the hosts have ever been on camera. They finish with Casamara Club sodas, fan mail, a spooky giveaway coincidence, and Liz proving she runs the Symon household wherever she goes.

Holiday Reset Week rolls on, and Clinton storms into the kitchen wielding dough, meats, and a questionable amount of confidence. Today he's making a Stromboli Wreath — a holiday showstopper straight from his seventh-grade memories working in his family's upscale pork store. Yes, Clinton has apparently been stuffing sausage casings since age 13, and Michael is personally offended he never mentioned it. Chaos ensues. As Clinton stretches store-bought pizza dough (frozen, defrosted, zero shame), the crew spirals into flashbacks: Clinton burning himself with glue guns, Michael's Midwestern "pizza bread" heritage, and Carla's traumatic relationship with molten pizza rolls. They layer provolone, salami, pepperoni, mozzarella, and oregano before rolling the whole thing into a log and dropping it — curveball — into a Bundt pan to bake into a holiday wreath. Rossi the dog tries to steal salami. Michael insists Stromboli should be eaten naked (no marinara). Carla double-dips without remorse. Clinton throws basil at the finished wreath and calls it "decoration." It works. After slicing into the golden, glossy Stromboli, they crack open Señorita's lime–jalapeño THC margarita for a mid-episode holiday buzz discussion: aging, hangovers, kids at Christmas, avoiding phones, surviving New York City, and why Michael once peeled grapes for a month as part of "chef hazing." The episode wraps with a Frontgate "Chef Symon Ice Bucket" Giveaway + $100 Señorita gift card, fan mail, and a reminder that Clinton is — officially — the Stromboli King of Long Island. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS (YouTube + Spotify) 00:00 — Clinton's New York cab-ride near-death story 01:00 — Holiday Reset Week chaos begins 02:20 — Clinton's pork-store childhood revealed 03:10 — Sausage-making confessions shock Michael 04:50 — Why this time of year feels "weird" 06:00 — Carla plugs her new baking show 07:10 — Why Clinton uses frozen dough 08:00 — The Stromboli build: cheese, meats, oregano 09:30 — Rossi the dog enters the chat 10:20 — Rolling the Stromboli + Bundt pan hack 11:00 — Pizza roll trauma 12:10 — Stromboli goes into the oven 13:00 — The finished wreath + basil "decorating" 14:30 — Tasting + marinara debate 15:20 — Stromboli for parties (or not for vegetarians) 16:00 — Señorita Drinks taste test 18:00 — Hangovers, aging, and clean buzz chemistry 19:00 — Michael on grandkids + holiday joy 20:00 — Carla's "new experiences" philosophy 21:00 — Clinton vows to get off his phone 22:00 — Caraway ad read 23:00 — Señorita ad read 24:00 — New Yorkers, walking etiquette, chaos 27:00 — Frontgate Giveaway reveal 28:00 — Winner: Kelly D. from Basking Ridge, NJ 29:00 — Fan mail + restaurant-TV accuracy 31:00 — Wrap-up + sponsor thanks SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS Señorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margaritas made with real juice and organic agave. https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20 Caraway → Non-toxic cookware with even heating and easy cleanup.

Michael Symon gets voluntold into another Fan Fridge Challenge, this time raiding Jenna G's Staten Island fridge packed with feta, mortadella, olives, chili crunch, and an obscene amount of cottage cheese—his personal kryptonite. Forced to face it, he builds a cottage-cheese–based dip while the blender fights back, Clinton gives play-by-play, and Carla heckles him about lemon seeds. As the dip slowly comes together, Michael fries potatoes, shaves carrots, toasts pita over the burner, and turns mortadella into shockingly good "meat chips."

The Chewed Up crew tackles Black Friday with two knockout leftover transformations. Michael whips up a savory Leftover Stuffing & Turkey Frittata, crisping the stuffing into a crust and pouring in a rich egg mixture for the ultimate brunch rescue mission. Carla turns leftover pecan pie into Frozen Pecan Pie Ice Cream Wedges with Chocolate Shell, slicing ice cream straight out of the carton and pouring on magic shell that hardens instantly. The episode also detours into airplane food crimes, mayo brand loyalty, childhood ice cream memories, and a rare instance of Clinton doing the truffle shuffle. 👉 Grab the full recipes + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Post-Thanksgiving delirium + Goonies/truffle shuffle reveal 01:00 – Black Friday chaos: the mall, the fear, the potato bread sandwich 02:00 – Mayo debate of the century: Hellmann's vs Duke's vs Kewpie 04:00 – Airplane food crimes: Brussels sprouts & curry nightmares 06:00 – Traveling broke vs ABC days 08:00 – Leftovers time: Carla's pecan pie → ice cream pie reveal 09:30 – Michael preps the stuffing frittata 10:30 – Magic shell nostalgia + chocolate coin origin story (Clinton takes credit) 12:00 – Frittata building: onions, eggs, stuffing 13:00 – Egg talk + whisk breaks again 15:00 – Frittata goes in the oven 17:00 – Herb garden regret + chives PSA 18:00 – Carla demo: slicing ice cream without melting it 20:00 – Ice cream layering brilliance + Tillamook fan club 23:00 – Chocolate shell pour — jaws hit floor 24:00 – Tasting the pie: universal meltdown 26:00 – Frittata comes out; Michael warns "DON'T TOUCH THE PAN" 27:00 – Breakfast + dessert together = holiday nirvana 28:00 – Fan Mail: favorite guests from The Chew 30:00 – Giveaway time: Caraway storage set 33:00 – Winner: Kelly V from Columbus, Ohio 34:00 – Black Friday sign-off + weekend love SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS Caraway → Non-toxic cookware, even heating, easy cleanup, up to 20% off for the holidays. https://carawayhome.com/chewedup Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas for mindful sipping without the booze. https://www.casamraclub.com Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Canopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that aims to provide a local experience. https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's the day before Thanksgiving, which means half the country is stress-sweating into casseroles—but Carla Hall is here to save everyone's sanity with a dish that doesn't require wrestling a 17-pound bird. Instead, she unveils Turkey Scallopini with Cranberry Gastrique, a fast, elegant, wildly flavorful alternative that tastes like the holiday without hijacking your entire day. While Carla reduces cranberries with vinegar, honey, and orange zest (with the occasional "boom"), Michael reminisces about Thanksgiving chaos, football traditions, and his deeply emotional relationship with stuffing and corn pudding. Clinton shares his mantra for the holiday: "As long as the gravy is hot, everything's fine." The trio swap their favorite sides, least favorite sides (box potatoes get dragged), and the kitchen-buddy debate escalates into a full-blown philosophical divide. Fan Mail brings questions about measuring cups vs. scoops, how to toast nuts without burning them (Carla: "Microwave." Michael: "Absolutely not."), and Thanksgiving prep tricks. Clinton also tells a Martha Stewart story so on-brand it practically spritzes linen spray. Carla pan-sears the turkey cutlets, builds a sage brown butter that has Michael swooning, and finishes the dish like she's plating at a Michelin-starred restaurant. The hosts dive in, declare it perfect, discuss gout for an unreasonably long time, and pull the episode giveaway winner: a Caraway Cutting Board. They wrap with heartfelt thanks, reminding everyone that whether you're cooking for two or twelve, the point of Thanksgiving is the people… and the sides. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Cold open: kitchen buddies, threats of cutting, general chaos 01:00 – Clinton sets the stage: it's the day before Thanksgiving 02:00 – Carla starts the Cranberry Gastrique (boom, boom, boom) 03:00 – Thanksgiving stress + grocery store trauma 04:00 – Football, parades, and marriage-induced sports education 05:00 – Clinton's hot gravy mantra 06:00 – Carla preps and pounds the turkey scallopini 07:00 – Michael's full Thanksgiving strategy breakdown 08:00 – Kitchen-buddy debate turns philosophical 10:00 – Carla's gastrique is popping; Martha Stewart cranberry story 11:00 – SUBSCRIBE plug (bread + cheese crusade mentioned) 12:00 – Michael moonwalk lesson 13:00 – Fan Mail: favorite sides, worst sides, box potatoes controversy 14:00 – Michael confesses: turkey is his least favorite part 15:00 – "How do you toast nuts if you're easily distracted?" 16:00 – Nick gets roasted for picking only two fan questions 17:00 – Carla wipes pan clean: Caraway demo 18:00 – Sage brown butter magic 19:00 – Clinton's Martha Stewart egg story (peak Martha) 21:00 – Casamara Club sponsor read 21:30 – Frontgate sponsor read 22:00 – Tasting: the scallopini stops all conversation 23:00 – Gout?

It's Thanksgiving Week on Chewed Up, and Clinton shows up with the one thing Michael Symon never thinks about on a holiday table: a salad. But not just any salad — the salad. The same one Clinton took to The Drew Barrymore Show where Drew declared it her "new favorite." Clinton, in full Salad Prophet mode, walks Michael and Carla through his roasted delicata squash, toasted pepitas, and pumpkin-spice-kissed croutons — or as the crew insists on calling them, "fat breakers." What follows is peak Chewed Up energy: Carla crunches croutons into the mic until Clinton gets strangely excited, Michael goes on a tirade about why restaurants should toss salads for you, and the trio accidentally rename Thanksgiving greens forever. They also drop hard-earned Thanksgiving prep wisdom — thawing your turkey on time, making stock early, mapping out your oven like a battlefield, and why brining is basically a trap if you want good gravy. The episode finishes with their Monday giveaway: The Frontgate Stay-Chill Bowl from Michael Symon's Collection, pulled straight from the set and heading to one lucky fan. It's loud, it's unhinged, it's practical, and somehow yes — it's still about salad. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Cold open: Clinton invented everything, apparently 01:00 – Thanksgiving vs. Friendsgiving vs. "Husband-Giving" 02:20 – Clinton confesses he's not a salad guy 03:00 – The origin story: Drew Barrymore + pumpkin spice croutons 04:00 – Crouton chaos and the Great Crunching Incident 05:00 – Delicata squash 101 07:30 – Carla's crunchy ASMR moment 08:30 – Toasting pepitas without burning your kitchen down 09:45 – Clinton's salad-dressing tasting hack 10:30 – Influencers steal Clinton's bottle-dressing trick 12:00 – Sponsor: Señorita (THC Margarita) 13:00 – Dressing the greens + Michael's bowl rant 15:00 – Goat cheese vs. feta diplomacy 16:00 – Dig-in + Thanksgiving prep talk begins 17:00 – The official Tuesday shopping rule 19:00 – The stuffing strategy 20:00 – Make-ahead pie logic 21:00 – The Great Gravy Debate 22:00 – Carla's "oven grid" system 24:00 – Buffet flow theory 26:00 – Turkey order, brining truth bombs 28:00 – Cooking by temp, not time 29:00 – Sponsor: Caraway 30:00 – Sponsor: Frontgate 31:00 – Sides strategy + mashed potato hacks 33:00 – Carla films the chaos 34:00 – Weekly Giveaway winner announced (Frontgate Stay-Chill Bowl) 35:00 – Wrap-up: Thanksgiving is coming fast SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS Señorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margarita made with real juice and organic agave. https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20 Caraway → Non-toxic cookware, even heating, easy cleanup, up to 20% off for the holidays. https://carawayhome.com/chewedup Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon's collection featured on the show. https://frontgate.com Canopy by Hilton → a lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that aims to provide a local experience. https://www.hilton.com/en/canopy Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ ABOUT CHEWED UP Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Clinton closes out Pre-Thanksgiving Week with a guest who practically brings a bakery with her: Danielle Sepsy, the legendary "Scone Queen" and owner of The Hungry Gnome. After showing up with six boxes of baked goods (naturally), Danielle jumps straight into teaching the gang how to make her Honey Corn Muffins — the hybrid cupcake-cornbread creation that her cookbook will soon unleash on the world. The crew dives deep into muffin science, the importance of cake flour, sour cream, and the extremely controversial word moist, all while Danielle drops tip after tip (including why oven temperature shock therapy creates a perfect dome). The episode goes gloriously off-track as Clinton and Danielle reminisce about Long Island culture, Michael reveals a crippling cookie addiction, and Carla unsuccessfully attempts a Long Island accent. They also play a chaotic round of Chew It or Screw It, debate canned versus homemade cranberry sauce, argue pie vs. cake, and end up deep in Thanksgiving hosting dilemmas. The group answers fan questions, shares the horrors of cursed Jell-O salads, and swaps stories about reheating turkey without destroying it. And in true Chewed Up fashion, the episode ends with laughs, crumbs everywhere, a Wicked Part 2 tangent, and a massive giveaway: a $75 Hungry Gnome Gift Card. It's carbs, comedy, and pure pre-holiday mania. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Muffin top chaos begins 01:00 – Carla's cold-open and the pre-Thanksgiving setup  02:00 – Clinton introduces guest Danielle Sepsy 03:00 – The Hungry Gnome origin story 05:00 – Danielle reveals Honey Corn Muffins 07:00 – Chew It or Screw It: Thanksgiving Edition 10:00 – The baking demo starts (cake flour vs. cornmeal) 13:00 – Moist discourse and seed-oil panic 15:00 – Sour cream = the secret weapon 17:00 – Why muffin batter needs fridge time 18:00 – The muffin dome trick 19:00 – Long Island Culture Test 23:00 – Muffins come out of the oven; reactions 27:00 – Danielle's Big Brunch story 30:00 – Fan mail: Jell-O trauma, reheating turkey, hostess gifts 36:00 – Wicked Part 2 detour 37:00 – Fan Giveaway Winner Announced 38:00 – Wrap-up + Thanksgiving Week tease SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas with zero booze, inspired by global flavors. https://casamaraclub.com Caraway → Non-toxic cookware, even-heating, gorgeous design, zero stress. https://carawayhome.com/chewedup Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials designed in-house. https://frontgate.com Canopy by Hilton → a lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that aims to provide a local experience. https://hilton.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

On this pre-Thanksgiving Wednesday, the Chewed Up crew dives headfirst into a Fan Fridge from Tammy M. in Chicago — and it's pure chaos in the best way. After some high-level TV and movie debates (Chicago, Pretty Woman, Taskmaster, Landman — they hit everything), Michael finally rolls up his sleeves and faces the fridge: chicken thighs, Italian sausage, peppers, bacon grease, pickled jalapeños, tomato sauce, frozen kale, and about 30 other "what exactly is this doing here?" items. What follows is a masterclass in improvisation and ratio-based cooking. Michael browns chicken thighs in bacon fat, busts up Italian sausage for a quick sauce, throws in sweet and spicy peppers, splashes in water to lift the fond, and finishes with tomato sauce, butter, basil, and a little fish sauce for umami. It's fast, deeply flavorful, and exactly the kind of dish you make when Thanksgiving collapses in real time. Along the way, they tackle posture issues, bad luck superstitions, restless legs, tattoo meanings, Browns trauma, the psychology of reframing, and why some people should absolutely not stretch their shirts from Season One. Carla and Clinton heckle, encourage, and philosophize in equal measure — and yes, Clinton sings "Brandy" at the end because Denise from New Jersey demanded it. The episode ends with a generous Fan Giveaway from Carla: her cookbook, her nesting baking pans, and her okra-flower measuring cups. Chaos, comfort, therapy, and a skillet dinner that actually slaps. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Cold open chaos + posture insults 01:00 – Setting up the Fan Fridge + Tammy M. from Chicago 03:00 – Movie/TV rabbit hole (Chicago, Pretty Woman, Taskmaster, Landman) 06:00 – The Fridge Reveal 07:00 – Ingredient breakdown + dish direction 08:30 – Michael's game plan 10:00 – Pelvis tilt & aging reality checks 14:00 – Posture talk + bacon fat aromatherapy 15:00 – Restless leg saga 16:00 – Fan Mail: Brandy request + tattoos 18:00 – Browning chicken & sausage 20:00 – Ratio-based cooking + kale argument 23:00 – Luck, superstition & the Browns curse 25:00 – Tomato, butter, basil → finishing the dish 27:00 – Cooking confidence pep talk 29:00 – Tasting 33:00 – Drinks open 35:00 – Carla's Fan Giveaway 38:00 – Clinton picks the winner 39:00 – Clinton sings "Brandy" 39:45 – Wrap-up + sponsor thanks 🙌 SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS: Señorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavor THC cocktails made with real juice and organic agave. https://drinksenorita.com Caraway → Non-toxic cookware made modern.

This pre-Thanksgiving episode marks Chewed Up's 25th installment, and the trio arrives in peak form: Michael's stomach is questionable, Clinton is fighting with his glasses, and Carla is unbothered as usual. Once the banter settles, Carla kicks off the week with a fully elevated Green Bean Casserole—a recipe crafted by lifestyle expert and longtime friend Chadwick Boyd, who joins the episode to bring technique, history, and a truckload of caramelized onions. Chadwick walks through building the dish from scratch: a silky béchamel, Gruyère cheese, French-cut green beans, and the move that takes this dish from retro to remarkable—French Onion Drop Biscuits baked on top. Along the way, the crew dives into the surprisingly emotional backstory of green bean casserole, mashed potato debates, Campbell's Soup nostalgia, and a Meta AI fiasco that falsely announced Michael's divorce. The episode ends with a bubbling, golden casserole that stops everyone mid-sentence, a fan giveaway reveal featuring a Caraway cast-iron duo plus Chadwick's e-book and T-shirt, and a reminder that sometimes the most comforting dish is the one reinvented with heart. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes KEYWORDS (SEO) green bean casserole recipe, holiday casserole, French onion biscuits, Chadwick Boyd recipe, Carla Hall green bean casserole, upgraded green bean casserole, Thanksgiving side dishes, béchamel casserole, no canned soup casserole, comfort food recipes, Michael Symon Thanksgiving, Clinton Kelly cooking TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — Michael's terrible morning 00:48 — Celebrating 25 episodes 01:20 — Pre-Thanksgiving week begins 02:50 — The green bean casserole debate 03:15 — Carla introduces guest Chadwick Boyd 04:00 — The 70-year history of green bean casserole 07:00 — Campbell's Soup nostalgia 08:00 — Starting the béchamel 09:00 — Fan mail: juicy turkey tips 11:00 — Milk gravy & bechamel 101 13:45 — Clinton vs. progressive lenses 15:00 — Sponsor: Caraway 16:00 — Gruyère, thyme & casserole assembly 18:45 — Frozen vs. fresh green beans 19:30 — Biscuit dough begins 22:00 — Caramelized onions in biscuit dough 24:00 — Dropping the biscuits on top 25:30 — Sponsor: Señorita 26:10 — Sponsor: Frontgate 26:40 — Fan mail: mashed potato showdown 27:45 — Baking the casserole 28:15 — Tasting the dish 29:30 — Chadwick's 70th anniversary e-book & fundraiser 31:00 — Giveaway time 33:00 — Winner announcement 34:00 — Meta AI's unhinged "pan wall" summary 36:00 — Wrap up + CTA SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS Señorita → Non-alcoholic full-flavor THC margaritas crafted with real juice & agave. https://senoritadrinks.com Caraway → Non-toxic cookware designed for modern kitchens. https://carawayhome.com Frontgate → Luxury outdoor, entertaining, and home essentials. https://frontgate.com Canopy by Hilton → Thanks for supporting the show. https://hilton.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Fan Fridge Week wraps up with a sweet bang as Carla Hall raids the fridge of Eryca from Glen Burnie, Maryland, and turns a random mix of ingredients — banana bread, berries, cottage cheese, and lemonade — into a brunch-ready masterpiece: Banana Bread French Toast with Lemonade-Berry Compote and Chocolate Greek Yogurt. It's classic Carla: a little Southern soul, a little improv, and a lot of heart. She whips cottage cheese into a smooth custard with eggs, oat milk, maple syrup, and cinnamon for a high-protein French toast base, then tops it with fresh berries tossed in reduced lemonade syrup. Michael and Clinton can't resist heckling (and taste-testing), especially as Clinton tells a childhood story involving blackberries and an apology to "Laura Stratton." Between the laughter, the blending, and the slow-mo whipped cream finale, the trio closes out Fan Fridge Week with warmth, wit, and a reminder that even leftovers can become something special. The result: a dish that tastes like banana bread pudding's classier cousin — and the perfect sweet ending to a wild week. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Keywords Carla Hall, Clinton Kelly, Michael Symon, Chewed Up podcast, Fan Fridge Friday, banana bread French toast, cottage cheese custard, lemonade syrup, berry compote, chocolate Greek yogurt, brunch recipes, leftovers, creative desserts, comfort food, easy French toast recipe, home cooking, breakfast for dinner Timestamps 0:00 – Friday energy + Clinton's sugar breakdown 1:00 – Carla gets her fan fridge: Erica from Glen Burnie, MD 3:00 – Banana bread discovery and idea: French toast! 5:00 – Cottage cheese debate: Michael's trauma returns 6:00 – Blending the custard + cinnamon cloud chaos 7:00 – Lemonade reduction plan for the berries 9:00 – Clinton's blackberry childhood apology 10:00 – Sponsor shoutouts: Frontgate, Blues Hog, Casamara Club 12:00 – Carla's protein custard + fan recipe update 14:00 – Greek yogurt + chocolate hack 16:00 – Banana bread hits the pan — flavor in the brown! 18:00 – Lemonade syrup meets the berries (compote moment) 20:00 – The perfect bite: banana, chocolate, and tangy fruit 23:00 – Dessert confessions: what's your fridge sweet fix? 24:00 – Bread pudding nostalgia + potato roll secrets 27:00 – Fan mail: favorite guests from The Chew (Carol Burnett, Olivia Newton-John, Dolly Parton, etc.) 33:00 – Double giveaway: Carla's cookbook + Clinton's ice mold find 35:00 – Final thoughts on Fan Fridge Week — chaos, connection, and love 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Elevated furniture and entertaining essentials that make every spread look stunning. https://www.frontgate.com Blues Hog → Award-winning sauces and rubs from the Champions' Choice. https://www.blueshog.com Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas for mindful sipping without the booze. https://www.casamraclub.com All-Clad → Premium cookware crafted in the USA and trusted by chefs everywhere. https://www.allclad.com Hedley & Bennett → Professional-grade aprons and kitchen gear built for pros and passionate cooks alike. https://www.hedleyandbennett.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

In the second installment of Fan Fridge Week, it's Michael Symon's turn to take the Fan Fridge Challenge. The lucky fan this round is Pat from Peoria, Arizona, whose fridge is stocked with salmon, feta, avocado, carrots, celery, and a few wildcards like red curry paste. Michael takes the challenge head-on, transforming Pat's fridge into a Mediterranean feast — complete with crispy-skin salmon, lemon egg sauce (avgolemono-style), and a feta–avocado–cucumber salad kissed with curry paste and olives. While he cooks, Carla offers her "Chef MacGyver" commentary, Clinton warns against ER-level avocado injuries, and everyone weighs in on fridge organization, panic meals, and how to save face when the salmon skin sticks. The dish ends up a knockout: buttery, lemony, bright, and fresh. It's proof that with a little skill (and maybe a few Greek instincts), you can turn a random fan's fridge into a showstopper meal — and a perfectly cooked salmon that even Clinton admits is "better than expected." 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Keywords Michael Symon, Carla Hall, Clinton Kelly, Chewed Up podcast, Fan Fridge, salmon recipe, crispy salmon, avgolemono, Greek sauce, feta salad, avocado salad, red curry paste, healthy recipes, leftover challenge, cooking show podcast, comfort food, Mediterranean cooking Timestamps 0:00 – Cold open: "How else are you gonna cut an avocado?" 1:00 – Welcome + fan reveal: Pat from Peoria, Arizona 3:00 – Michael outlines his plan: a Greek-inspired salmon with feta, avocado & lemon 5:00 – Cooking begins: crispy-skin salmon and lemon broth prep 7:00 – Herb talk, stock trick, and cooking tips for stainless pans 10:00 – The Avocado Incident: ER stories and Clinton's PSA 12:00 – Sponsor shoutouts (Frontgate, Blues Hog, Casamara Club) 14:00 – Fridge panic meals: peanut noodles, omelets, and eggs 16:00 – Red curry paste twist in the Greek salad 18:00 – Lemon-egg (avgolemono) sauce magic 20:00 – Carla's "foil packet fish" flashback with Laura Prepon 23:00 – All-Clad & Hedley & Bennett sponsor mentions 25:00 – Fan mail: printer-friendly recipe request 26:00 – Refrigerator feng shui and organization talk 28:00 – Plating: crispy salmon, lemon sauce, feta-avocado-cucumber salad 30:00 – Taste test: "Better than expected" verdict 31:00 – Fan shoutout to Pat + giveaway setup 32:00 – Giveaway winner: Lori W. from Waxhaw, NC 33:00 – Wrap-up: Carla previews next Fan Fridge episode 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Elevated furniture and entertaining essentials that make every spread look stunning. https://www.frontgate.com Blues Hog → Award-winning sauces and rubs from the Champions' Choice. https://www.blueshog.com Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas for mindful sipping without the booze. https://www.casamraclub.com All-Clad → Premium cookware crafted in the USA and trusted by chefs everywhere. https://www.allclad.com Hedley & Bennett → Professional-grade aprons and kitchen gear built for pros and passionate cooks alike. https://www.hedleyandbennett.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's Fan Fridge Week, and things get unhinged fast when Clinton Kelly is forced to cook using ingredients from a real viewer's fridge — with a surprise assist from chef Leah Cohen (Pig & Khao). What starts as Clinton's worst nightmare turns into a masterclass in improvisation and Southeast Asian flavor. Leah helps Clinton whip up sweet-and-spicy teriyaki-style chicken wraps using leftover thighs, soy, maple syrup, and sriracha — transforming fridge chaos into something legitimately delicious. Along the way, the crew dives into Leah's restaurant stories, her Top Chef memories, and her hilarious parenting confessions about picky eaters and dinosaur nuggets. Carla brings the laughs, Michael brings the fire (literally, by toasting tortillas on the burner), and Clinton finally learns to trust the process — with butter. The result? A quick, craveable wrap that everyone devours before they can even clean up. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Keywords Leah Cohen, Pig and Khao, Clinton Kelly, Michael Symon, Carla Hall, Chewed Up podcast, teriyaki chicken wraps, fan fridge challenge, Asian sauce recipe, sriracha mayo, quick chicken recipes, leftover chicken ideas, maple soy glaze, lettuce wraps, cooking show podcast, comfort food, Southeast Asian flavors, kitchen chaos Timestamps 0:00 – Cold open: Carla admits she eats stranger's food 1:00 – Welcome to Fan Fridge Week 3:00 – Clinton's worst nightmare: cooking blind from a fan's fridge 4:00 – Surprise guest reveal: Leah Cohen joins the chaos 6:00 – Pig & Khao stories + Top Chef flashbacks 8:00 – Building the sauce: soy, maple syrup, sriracha, garlic, ginger 11:00 – The philosophy of cooking from your fridge 13:00 – Leah and Clinton cook and glaze the chicken 16:00 – Sponsor shoutouts (Frontgate, Blues Hog, Casamara Club) 18:00 – Lettuce wraps morph into toasted tortilla wraps 21:00 – Sriracha mayo magic and final plating 25:00 – Leah's Asian-inspired Thanksgiving sides 30:00 – Judging food, honesty, and constructive criticism 37:00 – Carla's lemon pound cake story 39:00 – Michael's emotional fan giveaway: the Lola & Lolita hook rack 41:00 – Closing banter + outro 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Elevated furniture and entertaining essentials that make every spread look stunning. https://www.frontgate.com Blues Hog → Award-winning sauces and rubs from the Champions' Choice. https://www.blueshog.com Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas for mindful sipping without the booze. https://www.casamraclub.com All-Clad → Premium cookware crafted in the USA and trusted by chefs everywhere. https://www.allclad.com Hedley & Bennett → Professional-grade aprons and kitchen gear built for pros and passionate cooks alike. https://www.hedleyandbennett.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Carla Hall brings the week home with a dessert mashup so good it sparks chaos: Peach Cobbler + Pound Cake. While she caramelizes peaches with brown sugar, cinnamon, and a splash of almond extract, Clinton and Michael spiral into debates over lime-burn rash, butter temperature, and the eternal introvert–extrovert struggle. Carla schools them on baking science — from fake cake flour hacks to slow-rise pound cakes that bake straight from a cold oven. The gang gets nostalgic about grandmas, cookie memories, and the world's worst cookies (sorry, black-and-white fans). By the end, Clinton's threatening to throw the mixer off the balcony, Michael's covered in crumble, and everyone agrees: Carla's Peach Cobbler Pound Cake is pure holiday comfort. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Keywords Peach Cobbler Pound Cake, Carla Hall dessert, Chewed Up podcast, Michael Symon, Clinton Kelly, holiday baking recipe, comfort food, baking tips, crumble topping, pound cake with peaches, cookie debate, kitchen comedy, grandma recipes, Frontgate sponsorship, Blues Hog sauce, All-Clad cookware, Hedley & Bennett aprons Timestamps (YouTube + Spotify) 0:00 – Intro: "Salt and Flour" chaos kicks off the dessert day 1:00 – Peach Prep: Carla caramelizes peaches with brown sugar and preserves 4:00 – Lime Lesson: Clinton's citrus sunburn horror story 7:00 – Crunch Time: Carla mixes up the crumble while Michael heckles 9:00 – Sponsor Break: Frontgate, Blues Hog, Casamara Club 11:00 – Cake Science: Carla's secret to perfect pound cake texture 14:00 – Mashup Madness: The trio share their weirdest recipe mashups 17:00 – Introvert Confessions: Who's a top, bottom, or ambivert? 20:00 – Fan Mail: Holiday cookie memories and grandma stories 24:00 – Cookie Debate: Black-and-white vs rainbow cookies 25:00 – More Sponsors: All-Clad & Hedley & Bennett 30:00 – Taste Test: The finished cake steals the show 31:00 – Giveaway: Carla's Breadwinner Pan + handmade magnet 33:00 – Wrap-Up: Brenda from Enfield, CT wins the giveaway 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Luxury home and entertaining essentials that make every table look incredible. https://www.frontgate.com Blues Hog → Award-winning BBQ sauces and rubs — winner of Best Sauce on the Planet at the American Royal. https://www.blueshog.com Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas with sophisticated, low-alcohol vibes. https://www.casamaraclub.com All-Clad → Legendary bonded-steel cookware trusted by pros for decades. https://www.allclad.com Hedley & Bennett → Professional-grade aprons and kitchen gear that blend style + function. https://www.hedleyandbennett.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's Wednesday, which means Main Dish Day, and things get spicy fast—though not for the reasons you'd think. Clinton, Carla, and Michael start with a debate about fashion, self-expression, and elastic waistbands, before spiraling into the kind of conversation only Chewed Up could have: Clinton explaining the meaning of "top," "bottom," and "versatile" to a very curious Michael. Between laughs, Clinton whips up a Butternut Squash, Spinach & Blue Cheese Pie, a rich and comforting vegetarian dish perfect for Thanksgiving—or any cozy night in. Carla brings her love of color and texture (in both clothes and cooking), while Michael reveals he's passing the Thanksgiving torch to his son for the first time in decades. By the time the pie comes out of the oven, they've covered everything from body confidence and fashion phases to gravy temperature anxiety. The episode wraps with Michael giving away his actual golf putter—the one that "beat Bobby Flay"—as this week's fan giveaway.

This week on Chewed Up, Michael Symon turns back the clock to his Lola restaurant days with a nostalgic yet over-the-top snack: Loaded Tater Tots with Cheese Fondue. What starts as a simple "Monday Appetizer Day" turns into a glorious kitchen free-for-all — molten Gruyère cheese, bubbling oil, and a conversation that veers from caffeine armpit experiments to culinary redemption stories. Carla Hall recounts her grandmother's ghostly intervention in a soul food recipe crisis, while Clinton Kelly battles sleep deprivation and scalding cheese. The trio dive into the science of pâte à choux, the quirks of farm-fresh eggs, and the art of not losing your mind in November. Between the laughter, burns, and butter, they serve up a reminder that life (and food) is better when you keep it messy — and molten. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Keywords Michael Symon, Carla Hall, Clinton Kelly, Chewed Up, cheese fondue, homemade tater tots, Lola restaurant, Midwestern comfort food, frying tips, fondue recipe, winter recipes, comfort food podcast, Frontgate, All-Clad, Hedley & Bennett, Blues Hog, Casamara Club Timestamps 00:00 – Michael confesses his love for melted cheese 01:00 – The crew talks sleep, aging, and grumpiness 04:00 – Michael starts the fondue and reveals his secret garlic trick 06:00 – Carla recalls the caffeine spray incident 10:00 – The art of pâte à choux (and Clinton's cream puff phase) 14:00 – Farm-fresh egg facts from Clinton 16:00 – Carla's "hot water cornbread redemption" story 20:00 – Frying tips: how to keep your oil clean 23:00 – The trio debates winter blues and hobbies 30:00 – Liz's cocktail set gets a shoutout 33:00 – Clinton scalds his uvula 34:00 – Fan Giveaway winner announced 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Elegant home décor, furniture, and Michael Symon's barware collection. frontgate.com All-Clad → The gold standard of professional cookware. allclad.com Hedley & Bennett → Premium aprons, knives, and kitchen tools for chefs and home cooks. hedleyandbennett.com Blues Hog BBQ → Award-winning sauces and rubs — "Stay Saucy." blueshog.com Casamara Club → Elevated, botanical sodas for your next mocktail moment. casamaraclub.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's Halloween in the Chewed Up kitchen, and the costumes are as unhinged as the conversation. Clinton Kelly struts in as "Sexy Mouse," Carla Hall rocks a full Minion outfit with fogged-up goggles that make her nearly blind, and Michael Symon appears as a "Beat-Down Browns Fan" — complete with robe, fake bruises, and real sweat. Carla somehow navigates her limited vision to whip up Graveyard Dirt Cups: a luscious chocolate mousse layered with crushed cookies, candy pumpkins, gummy worms, and Milano-cookie tombstones. Meanwhile, Clinton and Michael heckle her from the sidelines — one worried she'll chop her fingers off, the other worried he's about to faint from heat exhaustion. Between laughter fits, the trio debates the morality of candy corn, mourns the lost sharpness of Sour Patch Kids, and recalls childhood ice cream truck adventures (and rip-offs). The episode closes with fan mail, a debate about touring, Carla lobbying for a Lexus sponsorship, and a Fan Giveaway featuring Clinton's What Not to Wear accessories. Equal parts spooky and silly, this one's pure Halloween comfort food — chaos served cold with whipped cream on top. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Keywords Halloween dessert, Graveyard Dirt Cups, chocolate mousse cups, Carla Hall Minion costume, Michael Symon Browns fan robe, Clinton Kelly Sexy Mouse, candy corn debate, gummy worms, nostalgic Halloween, spooky mousse recipe, Chewed Up Halloween episode Timestamps 00:00 — Costumes revealed: Sexy Mouse (Clinton), Beat-Down Browns Fan (Michael), Minion with goggles (Carla) 01:30 — Michael jokes he might pass out in his robe — "If I black out, just dump water on me." 04:00 — Carla unveils Graveyard Dirt Cups recipe 06:00 — Melting chocolate and dark vs. milk debate 09:00 — "Perfect whipped cream" tutorial: smooth, not stiff 12:00 — Sponsor shout-outs: Frontgate, Casamara Club, All-Clad 13:00 — Candy corn controversy and gummy worm showdown 17:00 — Carla pipes "RIP" on Milano cookies for tombstones 18:00 — Ice cream truck nostalgia (Carla gets scammed by a freezer-burned Popsicle) 24:00 — Homemade vs. store-bought costumes 26:00 — Fan Mail: Favorite dishes and tour talk 29:00 — Carla asks for a Lexus, jokes about Toyota Sienna minivans 30:00 — Fan Giveaway: Clinton's What Not to Wear tie, pocket square, and cufflinks (Winner: Janet, Germantown, TN) 31:00 — Halloween send-off and chaos outro 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Elevated design for entertaining, from serveware to furniture. frontgate.com Casamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas, zero-proof and refreshing. casamaraclub.com All-Clad → Pro-grade, fully bonded cookware trusted by chefs and home cooks. allclad.com Hedley & Bennett → Aprons, knives, and kitchen tools that work as hard as you do. hedleyandbennett.com Blues Hog → Award-winning BBQ sauces and rubs — "Best Sauce on the Planet." blueshog.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → https://anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ Camera, Audio, and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's two days before Halloween, and the kitchen is smelling like heaven—or at least like beef, wine, and roasted pumpkin. Michael Symon dives into his fall comfort zone with a slow-simmered Beef & Pumpkin Stew, packed with root vegetables, red wine, and the secret weapon: patience. Carla and Clinton bring the chaos—debating the meaning of comfort food, velvet trauma, and cottage cheese rehabilitation—while Michael insists that cooking in a pumpkin is a "food crime." (Sorry, Nick.) Between lessons on the sacred art of browning meat, pan fond appreciation, and cast-iron confessions, the trio meanders into holiday dinner-party philosophy, podcast addictions, and the myth of the perfect cookware set. By the end, Carla's handing out "Dude Stickers," Clinton's channeling Gilda Radner, and Michael's teaching everyone how to finish a stew and a sentence. Oh, and yes—you can serve it in a pumpkin.

It's officially Halloween week in the Chewed Up kitchen, and things get scary good. Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon welcome Jeanette Donnarumma, beloved culinary producer from The Rachael Ray Show, for a festive, full-throttle celebration of spooky season. Together they recreate Clinton's infamous "Cheese Rat" — a 1970s-style curry cheese ball transformed into a furry rodent with coconut "fur," almond ears, and licorice tail. As the group decorates their cheesy creation, they dive into stories from their TV past, from on-set injuries to the freedom of producing a show with zero network executives. Jeanette also stirs up a batch of Apple Cider Margaritas for the grown-ups and a family-friendly version for the kids, before unveiling a DIY Pumpkin Wine Keg that steals the show (and possibly your dignity). The episode wraps with a lively Fan Mail segment, reflections on the old Rachael Ray days, and one lucky winner from Hampton, Virginia snagging this week's giveaway. It's festive, chaotic, and hilariously nostalgic—exactly what Halloween in the kitchen should be. 👉 Grab the full recipes + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Find Jeanette: @jeanettemadeit 🔑 Keywords cheese rat, halloween recipes, curry cheese ball, Clinton Kelly recipe, Jeanette Donnarumma, apple cider margarita, pumpkin wine keg, Carla Hall, Michael Symon, halloween party ideas, funny food podcast, cheese ball recipe, retro appetizer, spooky snacks, cocktail ideas, food show reunion 🕒 Timestamps 00:00 – Intro: "Cheese Rat.

It's Dessert Day and Carla Hall is serving up nostalgia in a jar with her Banana Pudding Trifles — creamy pastry cream, fresh banana, and shortbread cookies layered to perfection. As she whisks, folds, and schools the guys on salt ("I call it compliments!"), Clinton and Michael derail into a series of chaotic tangents about Halloween costumes, road rage, and kitchen gadgets they're ashamed to own. Michael defends his anti-air-fryer stance, Carla fights for her Samsung phone sponsorship dreams, and Clinton admits he flips people off on the highway. Along the way, they trade cooking wisdom — from tempering eggs to the myth of "sealing in juices" — before Carla reveals her secret ingredient obsession: malted milk powder. The episode wraps with the reveal of a rare Carla Hall apron giveaway (complete with pink corn fabric), proving once again that in this kitchen, the laughter is as thick as the pudding. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Keywords banana pudding trifle, Carla Hall dessert, banana pudding recipe, viral recipes, pudding jars, shortbread cookies, Halloween baking, Michael Symon, Clinton Kelly, air fryer debate, comfort food podcast, cooking show YouTube Timestamps 0:00 Halloween costumes & Carla's 3-hour prosthetics 3:00 Childhood memories & why Clinton hates Halloween 6:00 Carla introduces Banana Pudding Trifles 8:00 "Compliments = Salt" and kitchen prep banter 10:00 Michael's frozen banana hack 12:00 Sponsor shoutouts: Frontgate & All-Clad 13:00 Fan Mail & Air Fryer Wars 16:00 Cooking school lessons and the reverse-sear myth 18:00 Clinton's road-rage confessions 22:00 Carla finishes the custard and adds butter + vanilla 25:00 Folding whipped cream, layering trifles 28:00 Brûléed banana topping & taste test 30:00 Fan Giveaway: Carla's limited-edition apron 31:00 Wrap-up & teaser for Monday's "Cheese Spread" episode 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Stylish serveware and home décor that make our kitchen shine. frontgate.com All-Clad → Premium American-made cookware trusted by chefs since the 1970s. allclad.com Hedley & Bennett → Professional-grade aprons and kitchen tools built for durability and style. hedleyandbennett.com Blues Hog → Champion-level sauces and rubs — "Stay Saucy." blueshog.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → simplealien.com Camera, Audio & Crew by TV Boy → tvboynyc.com About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Michael, Carla, and Clinton welcome Bronx-born chef and Food Network favorite Christian Petroni to the Chewed Up kitchen for a masterclass in pasta rebellion. Christian's "Penne alla Vodka—No Penne, No Vodka" swaps penne for rigatoni and vodka for red wine, blending prosciutto, garlic, cream, and Pecorino into a sauce that defies tradition and tastes like heaven. Between laughs, the gang debates pasta etiquette, Italian authenticity, and what to call your Sunday sauce without starting a war. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes 🔑 Keywords Christian Petroni, Penne alla Vodka, Rigatoni, Bronx Italian, Pasta recipe, Comfort food, Italian-American, Chewed Up, Michael Symon, Carla Hall, Clinton Kelly, Parm to Table, Food Network, viral pasta recipe, rigatoni recipe, creamy tomato pasta 🕒 Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome & sweater weather banter 01:45 – Michael introduces guest chef Christian Petroni 03:00 – The Bronx to Ponza: Christian's story 05:30 – The real foundation of Penne alla Vodka 07:00 – Building flavor: olive oil, prosciutto, garlic, shallots 09:00 – The garlic debate + toasting pepper 13:00 – Pasta water wisdom: "It's not the Mediterranean!" 14:30 – "No Penne, No Vodka" explained 16:00 – The Great Pasta Debate: best and worst shapes 20:00 – Parmigiano vs. Pecorino showdown 22:00 – Cream and the pink sauce confession 25:00 – Undercooking pasta and finishing in sauce 28:00 – The basil-smack trick and final toss 31:00 – The big tasting reaction 33:00 – Fan Mail & Petroni's biggest food icks 35:00 – Giveaway Winner: Sean from Mississippi 36:00 – Wrap-up & next episode tease 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Premium furniture, serveware, and home essentials. frontgate.com All-Clad → Professional-grade cookware made in the USA since the 1970s. allclad.com Hedley & Bennett → Pro-grade aprons and kitchen tools that look as good as they perform. hedleyandbennett.com Blues Hog → Award-winning BBQ sauces and rubs, crowned "Best Sauce on the Planet." blueshog.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → simplealien.com Camera, Audio, and Crew provided by TV Boy → tvboynyc.com Want to Watch? →⁠Spotify⁠⁠ (https://open.spotify.com/show/3Z9NDuHH7XP03FXQIhHlQ3) →⁠YouTube⁠ (https://www.youtube.com/@ChewedUpShow) Want to Listen? → ⁠Spotify⁠ (https://open.spotify.com/show/3Z9NDuHH7XP03FXQIhHlQ3) → ⁠Apple⁠ (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/chewed-up/id1840993910) → ⁠Amazon⁠ (https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/1fc5d229-459b-4334-8970-ce0d6f925982/chewed-up) → ⁠RedCircle (https://redcircle.com/shows/c42dbec1-e576-4927-acc7-f22e988c1a81) 🎁 Fan Giveaway This week's Giveaway: Signed copy of Parm to Table by Christian Petroni 👉 Subscribe & enter at chewedupshow.com/fangiveaway Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
It's Monday appetizer day, but things get messy fast. Clinton blames Nick for convincing him to try the "viral" croffle trend—croissant dough in a waffle maker—and immediately regrets every buttery, failed attempt. The gang debates whether "viral" now just means "bad food that looks good," while Carla insists on finding the silver lining (and the cinnamon sugar). Michael tries to talk sense into Clinton ("just bake the damn croissant"), but the chaos spirals into discussions about Peloton instructors, phone call etiquette, and Clinton's terrifying voicemail greeting. Later, the trio dive into aging, hair loss, menopause vs. andropause, and the weird comfort of losing body hair as eyesight fades. By the time the puff pastry "waffles" come out of the iron, the kitchen smells like redemption—and sugar. The team discovers that the croffle may actually be better as a quick dessert than an appetizer. Add ice cream, chocolate syrup, and a dusting of cinnamon, and you've got something your grandkids would love (even if your cohosts roll their eyes). The episode wraps with a brand-new Fan Mail segment featuring real listener questions about sweet omelets and cutting boards, plus Clinton's personal giveaway—a vintage "Wear Something Cute & Don't Take Any Crap" mug from his What Not To Wear days. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes 🔍 Keywords croffle, puff pastry, viral food trends, Clinton Kelly, Michael Symon, Carla Hall, podcast recipes, waffle iron, kitchen fails, menopause, andropause, cooking humor, easy dessert ideas, comfort food, fan mail, vintage mugs 🕒 Timestamps 00:00 – Cold open & chaos begins 01:00 – Fall weather + Clinton's geography corner 03:00 – "Nick's fault" and the Croffle experiment 06:00 – Voicemail etiquette & cranky confessions 08:00 – The croffle redemption arc 11:00 – "Can you braise short ribs in a pumpkin?" 12:00 – Sponsor shoutouts (Frontgate, All-Clad) 13:00 – Body hair, aging, and andropause 17:00 – Couples and bad gift stories 20:00 – The puff pastry waffle reveal 23:00 – New segment: Fan Mail (sweet omelets & cutting boards) 27:00 – Menopause vs. andropause 29:00 – Giveaway: Clinton's vintage mug 31:00 – Wrap-up + Wednesday tease (Christian Petroni guest) 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Frontgate → Luxury furniture, decor, and serveware built for entertaining. frontgate.com All-Clad → The gold standard in American-made cookware. all-clad.com Hedley & Bennett → Professional-grade aprons, knives, and kitchen gear that look as good as they perform. hedleyandbennett.com Blues Hog → Award-winning BBQ sauces, rubs, and marinades — "Stay Saucey." blueshog.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → simplealien.com Camera, Audio, and Crew by TV Boy → tvboynyc.com 🍴 About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's Friday dessert day, and things get delightfully weird. Michael Symon welcomes Chef Ayesha Nurdjaja (of Shuka and Shukette) for a sugar-fueled kitchen session with Carla Hall and Clinton Kelly. Before the sweet potato cobbler bars even hit the oven, the trio dives into tales of swearing on live TV — from Carla dropping an unexpected "sh*t" on Halloween Baking Championship to Clinton's Amazon Prime show that proudly includes the F-word in the title. Ayesha reveals her dream of hosting a late-night food show, complete with whiskey and restaurant gossip, while Carla shares a touching moment about rediscovering her grandmother's secret tea recipe thanks to almond extract. The crew debates overrated and underrated desserts (spoiler: chocolate takes some hits), diner culture nostalgia, and what to bring — or not bring — to a dinner party. By the time Carla's golden cobbler bars emerge from the oven, the kitchen smells like Thanksgiving, and everyone agrees it's the perfect make-ahead dessert for any fall gathering. The episode wraps with a Fan Giveaway for dinner at Shukette NYC — and a new challenge for viewers: the upcoming Fan Fridge Week. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes 🔑 Keywords Ayesha Nurdjaja, Carla Hall, Michael Symon, Clinton Kelly, sweet potato cobbler bars, cobbler recipe, fall dessert, Trader Joe's, Frontgate, All-Clad, Hedley & Bennett, late-night food show, swearing on TV, overrated desserts, underrated desserts, sweet potato vs pumpkin, Fan Fridge Week, comfort food podcast, Chewed Up show ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 – Michael opens with birthday wishes and "sugar chaos" warning 1:15 – Meet guest chef Ayesha Nurdjaja — Food Network Titan & sandwich queen 2:30 – Ayesha's late-night talk show dream and whiskey dispenser fantasy 3:00 – Swearing on TV stories: Carla's "shit" heard 'round the set 5:00 – The F-bomb toddler story that broke Michael's family 6:00 – Carla's Sweet Potato Cobbler Bars recipe begins 8:30 – The secret power of almond extract and grandma's tea 11:30 – Family recipe secrets, hidden ingredients, and mother sabotage 13:00 – Sponsor shout-outs: Trader Joe's, Frontgate, All-Clad, Hedley & Bennett 14:45 – The overrated/underrated dessert debate 18:00 – The lost art of diner culture and perfect rice pudding 22:00 – Carla's cobbler bars emerge — golden, balanced, and perfect 23:00 – The great "host gift" debate: what not to bring to a party 25:00 – Introducing Fan Fridge Week challenge 27:00 – Childhood eating habits and "clean your plate" nostalgia 30:00 – Giveaway winner: Abby from Philadelphia — Dinner for two at Sette NYC 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Trader Joe's → Fun, affordable, and adventurous grocery finds that inspire our kitchen every week. https://www.traderjoes.com Frontgate → Premium furniture, décor, and entertaining essentials — including pieces from Michael's own collection. https://www.frontgate.com All-Clad → Trusted by chefs since the 1970s for durable, even-heating cookware built to last a lifetime. https://www.all-clad.com Hedley & Bennett → Pro-grade aprons and kitchen gear made for comfort, function, and style. https://www.hedleyandbennett.com 🏡 Kitchen Designed by: Anthony Carrino 🎥 Produced by: Simple Alien 📸 Camera, Audio & Crew by: TV Boy 💬 About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Michael Symon goes full Greek mode in this Mediterranean-inspired episode, frying up tender beef keftedes — mini Greek meatballs spiced with coriander, cumin and cinnamon — while his guest, the unstoppable Chef Ayesha Nurdjaja of Shuka and Shukette, whips feta into a silky dream. As they cook, Ayesha shares her incredible story — from getting rejected three times at Lidia Bastianich's restaurant to sneaking in with a broom and earning her spot as Sous Chef four years later. The crew dives into mentorship, the power of persistence, and why you should never call a sweet-potato purée "hummus." There's frying in olive oil, garlic candles, talk of TV Titans and Brooklyn accents — plus plenty of laughs and the now-legendary "Rip and Dip." It's a masterclass in flavor and friendship with a side of comedy and chaos — aka classic Chewed Up. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Keywords Michael Symon, Ayesha Nurdjaja, Greek meatballs, whipped feta, meze, keftedes, olive oil frying, Food Network Titans, mentorship, Brooklyn chef, Trader Joe's ingredients, Marble Ridge Farms, Blues Hog BBQ, Frontgate, All-Clad, Hedley & Bennett, Carla Hall, Clinton Kelly, Chewed Up podcast Timestamps (YouTube / Spotify) 00:00 – Intro chaos & banter 01:30 – Michael explains meze and his mom's Greek roots 02:45 – Guest intro: Chef Ayesha Nurdjaja joins the kitchen 05:30 – Ayesha shares her wild culinary origin story 10:00 – Sponsor shout-outs: Blues Hog, Marble Ridge, Trader Joe's 12:00 – Cooking the beef keftedes (step-by-step) 16:00 – Ayesha's whipped feta recipe and kitchen tips 20:00 – The Great Hummus Debate erupts 25:00 – Rip & Dip taste test + dill love-fest 29:00 – Titan talk & fan giveaway winner (Ally in Austin, TX) 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Blues Hog → Award-winning BBQ sauces and rubs that bring championship flavor to any dish. blueshog.com Marble Ridge Farms → Fourth-generation Missouri farm raising premium Wagyu cattle in a low-stress, happy environment. marbleridgefarms.com Trader Joe's → Your friendly neighborhood market for unique seasonal finds and affordable adventures. traderjoes.com Frontgate → Luxury entertaining and home essentials that make every spread look spectacular. frontgate.com All-Clad → The gold standard of cookware, crafted in the USA since the 1970s. all-clad.com Hedley & Bennett → Professional-grade aprons and kitchen gear built for durability, function and style. hedleyandbennett.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino → anthonycarrino.com Produced by Simple Alien → www.simplealien.com Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → tvboynyc.com For more on Ayesha and her restaurants: on instagram → @ayesha_rare Shukette Shuka About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

It's an Appetizer Monday, and things get loud fast. Michael Symon kicks off the show with "uptown trashy" energy while Carla Hall celebrates the launch of her second children's book, Carla and the Tin Can Cake Party. The gang dives into a heartfelt chat about chasing dreams, silencing self-doubt, and why doing things for free sometimes pays off. Then Clinton Kelly pulls a fan-favorite from The Chew vault—his Deviled Cheese Toast, a "dump-and-stir" party snack that saves the day (or night). As they cook, the trio spirals into mayo brand loyalty, Miracle Whip nostalgia, and the revelation that mayonnaise may be to dips what cream-of-mushroom soup is to casseroles. They trade Midwest casserole memories, debate the perfect drunken snack, and accidentally invent the term "Forgotten Bite Toast." Between sponsor shout-outs to Blues Hog, Trader Joe's, Frontgate, All-Clad, and Hedley & Bennett, the conversation drifts from San Francisco's reputation to body image, online lies, and food guilt. Clinton erupts in an unfiltered rant about diet culture and authenticity before Carla brings it home with her signature warmth—and a fan giveaway of her brand-new book.

Clinton Kelly transforms the classic French Onion Soup into an open-faced tartine, turning the world's coziest soup into a comfort lunch you can hold. As the onions slowly caramelize, the trio debates the important things in life — like what smells should be candle scents, whether an open-faced sandwich counts as a sandwich, and how calling it a "tartine" instantly makes it fancy. Carla praises the Boursin, Michael reminisces about French technique, and Clinton reveals his foolproof method for perfect caramelized onions (patience, people). Between bites, the conversation veers delightfully off track — from favorite cuisines (French, Israeli, Greek) to the art of hair hugs and bro hugs, to Clinton's unforgettable subway encounter with a fan who thought he looked "so much fatter in person." By the end, the trio laughs, eats, and crowns the French Onion Tartine the best "dirty little lunch" you'll ever make. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipes Keywords french onion tartine, french onion soup sandwich, clinton kelly recipe, carla hall, michael symon, chewed up show, boursin cheese, caramelized onions, open face sandwich, gruyere, french cuisine, comfort food recipes, kitchen debates, podcast cooking show Timestamps 00:00 – Clinton's subway story ("you're so much fatter in person") 01:30 – The gang talks show ownership and chemistry 02:10 – The great "what would you turn into a candle?" debate 03:00 – Clinton starts his French Onion Tartine 04:45 – Carla calls it "upside-down soup" 05:15 – Is an open-faced sandwich actually a sandwich? 07:00 – Adding beef broth and Boursin — the "dirty little lunch" begins 09:00 – What makes food feel fancy? 13:00 – Favorite cuisines: French vs. Greek vs. Israeli 17:00 – The burned-mouth pizza conversation 20:00 – Sponsor shoutouts (Blues Hog, Trader Joe's, Frontgate, All-Clad, Hedley & Bennett) 22:00 – Final taste: Carla's verdict — "You better shut your face!" 24:00 – Bro hug vs. hair hug vs. bear hug 31:00 – Clinton's subway comeback story revisited 32:30 – Giveaway announcement: Symon's Dinners Cooking Out cookbook 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Blues Hog → Award-winning BBQ sauces, rubs, and marinades — "Best Sauce on the Planet." blueshog.com Trader Joe's → The adventurous grocery store we all love — fun, affordable, and full of unique finds. traderjoes.com Frontgate → Premium home and entertaining essentials, including pieces from Michael Symon's collection. frontgate.com All-Clad → Professional-grade cookware trusted by chefs since the 1970s. all-clad.com Hedley & Bennett → Aprons, knives, and kitchen gear built for pros and home cooks alike. hedleyandbennett.com Kitchen Designed by Anthony Carrino Produced by Simple Alien Camera, Audio, and Crew by TV Boy About Chewed Up Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Carla Hall takes on the ultimate party staple — Deviled Eggs, three ways! — with a few unexpected twists and one accidental disaster that somehow tastes amazing. Between the yolks, the mayo, and a little too much Worcestershire, chaos reigns supreme as Clinton Kelly and Michael Symon dive into egg talk, breakfast snobbery, and whether deviled eggs should be served at brunch. Along the way, Carla shares clever kitchen tips (like oiling your knife to slice eggs cleanly), Clinton confesses his lifelong confusion about football, and Michael reminisces about crispy eggs from his childhood.
