You've Been Chopped!
If you haven't seen Chopped! Tuesday nights on Food Network, then do yourself a favor and set your DISH Network DVR for next Tuesday and check out this excellent elimination show with $10,000 up for grabs each week.
Host Ted Allen, and a panel of three judges from the culinary world, judge an appetizer, entrée, and dessert dish from 4 chefs. The chef who produces the least appealing dish is immediately eliminated before moving onto the next round (or course). By the dessert round only two chefs are standing.
The competition is judged on overall presentation, taste, use of the mandatory ingredients, and creativity. The last chef standing not only wins some instant name recognition and prestige, but a big fat check for $10,000, as well.
Food Network Nighttime has become a favorite in our house, and if you like cooking shows, or are simply looking for a break from crime dramas, police procedurals, or sitcoms, give Food Network Nighttime a try. It's already there as part of your DISH Network package!
