2 Chefs Rank Each Other’s Favourite Food Items

Today Kush takes on legendary, 9 Michelin Star chef Simon Rogan in a blind ranking challenge. Across 4 different categories, they take turns presenting each other with their favourite food items to place on the ranking board, but there’s a catch: once a spot is taken, it’s locked in and they don’t know what’s coming next!

From nostalgic comfort foods to Michelin star level masterpieces, things get competitive as they deliberate on what deserves the top spots…

  1. No idea if Kush still has links with Atul Kochar. If so I'd love an Indian themed one of these. Perhaps with Atul andKush or with another British-Indian chef (worked with Chetna before for example).

  2. Simon nailed Kush's 4. And Kush was spot on with the revised ranking. Would love to see Simon featured with one of the normals vs. sorted teams.

  3. @sorted food – I hope soon we can see a video where you show what chef's do to achieve amazing food. Like Simon Rogan's farm. Maybe it can be a series? Show us also fisher's, bakers, etc. And I love to see the normals deal with a whole animal and they need to cook food. After the reaction of the pigs head.

  4. Mushroom salt? I need to give that a try🍄🧂 My Cabbages🤪🤣 Whoa 40,000 Cabbages!!That's a hella lot of sauerkraut and sausage and cabbage stir fry🥬🌭or KFC Copycat coleslaw😋🤩

  5. Did Kush say he got that pigs head for a tenner and he made all of that delicious food out of it? OMG

  6. I used to love watching sorted but can't anymore due to the sound. Is it possible to ease off the chewing/mouth sounds? I don't know why it's so prominent in the last year or so 😢😢😢

  7. I feel like blindly pigeonholing 4 different categories into a top 4 seems a little forced. Y'all love gamifying stuff. What if it was "Guess where I placed this?" or something else instead of "Well if I had the power of foresight, this would be #1".

  8. Simon – “of course, its the year of the . . .” UNSKIPPABLE AD BREAK . . . My brain – “ year of the. . year of the horse? nah cant be. . it is the year of the horse though . . year of the . . “ [LIFTS CLOSH] cabbage . . . . My brain – “LEAST ITS NOT HORSE!” hahahaha

  9. I don't know who this guy is but I don't like that his first pick is something he's selling

  10. Just to point out, Fallow already did a butchering of an entire pig. And, as a lifelong vegetarian, I hated even the bit of the video I saw. They've made their attitude towards vegetarians very clear, which is dated IMO, but Sorted have always seemed more reasonable and aware of dietary preferences.

  11. as a southern man, Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning Salt is a staple in every home. We use it on just about everything, best ribs I ever made was using just it, smoked for 6 hours, finished off with a sear on charcoal to cook the bbq sauce on (was a mix of 2 store brands) and then placed in the oven at 104C/220F for 2 hours. It was part of a funeral thing for my mother, instead of the tradition where people outside the family bring the family casseroles, we ended up having those closest to her make dishes she loved. Sure it was a hodgepodge of stuff that didn't mix but it was things she loved. My grandma made Chicken and Dumplings, I did Ribs, my aunt did banana Pudding. I can't remember it all atm cause it's been years but it was great. Haven't made ribs home made since though.

  12. Fantastic comparisons. I love the discussions on the why for a ranking as well as what went into each entry. The variable blade food processor would be grand for doing a large amount of prep but not so economical for 2 in a household. Cabbage as an economical is grand. I, too, love the versatility of that common veg. And I agree entirely about the farm and how transforming being able to have super fresh produce and more. When I was young, my grandparents had converted a horse paddock into a huge garden (the horses were moved to my aunt and uncle). Going out to the garden to decide on dinner was wonderful. Having potatoes so fresh you just needed a scrub to 'peel' them was gran. And, as noted, being able to use different part of the plant than what's usually on the grocery shelves was lovely, too. That experience is part of why I love foods in a wide variety and texture.

  13. I wanted to like that, I really did, and I'll always love Kush (except when he throws out food in a relay) but that whole thing turned into an advertisement for an already extremely successful chef. I was really loving getting to see him and what I at least hoped was the REAL him, but the way he kept plugging his own business? Not for me.

  14. Simon's mushroom salt reminds me of Ebber's mushroom stock powder when he and kush did this a while ago! Chefs love their mushrooms 😂

  15. he's not a professional chef, but mythical Chef Josh would be fun to see with Kush, both of their chaotic energy would make things interesting

  16. I saw what Kush made from the pig head and all I could think about was my maternal Grandmother. She would have LOVED all the things that Kush made, ESPECIALLY hog's head cheese. Her family would raise a hog every year and that would feed them for the next year. So for her, Kush's table would have been a taste of her childhood.

  17. Great episode. It's good to see Kush holding his own with the big boys.

    I'd like to see Kush v Michel Roux and Atul Joshi.
