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. Loud, delicious, and completely unfiltered — this is Chewed Up at full volume. 👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: https://www.chewedupshow.com/recipes ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 – Carla Hall vs. the hotel glass door 04:00 – Why smash burgers are perfect for the Super Bowl 07:00 – Secret sauce breakdown (and ketchup slander) 12:00 – Smashing technique & meat lace 16:00 – First bite reactions 21:00 – Potato rolls, cheese melt, onion supremacy 27:00 – Frontgate shoutout 31:00 – Fashion hot takes & airport pajamas 36:00 – Parmesan rind wisdom 41:00 – Giveaway winner announced 🙌 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.

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 jokes01:00 — What really counts as Pasta Fagioli03:30 — Why this dish means everything to Michael06:30 — Rendering pancetta & building the base10:00 — Family recipes vs written recipes14:30 — Beans, pot liquor & why gentle simmer matters18:00 — Peasant food vs trendy food debate19:30 — The correct way to serve Pasta Fagioli23:30 — Fan mail: Do they get on each other’s nerves?30:30 — Future shows & Chewed Up expansion33:30 — Bean Week Fan Giveaway winner35:00 — 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 Empanadas8:30 — Cream Cheese Dough: Why It Never Fails13:40 — Filling the Empanadas (Don’t Overstuff)16:05 — Bean or BS Game Begins19:30 — Do Beans Contain the Souls of the Dead?22:10 — Empanadas Out of the Oven25:45 — Fan Mail & TV War Stories38:30 — Fan Giveaway + Bean Bag Chaos41:00 — 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 Week03:10 — Introducing Marysol Castro07:00 — Wedding stories & control freaks10:30 — Soup build begins14:45 — Mets talk (for beginners)18:30 — Chew It or Screw It27:00 — Soup finish & tasting32:00 — Fan mail: beans for breakfast37:00 — Fan giveaway40:00 — Final chaos & goodbyes 🙌 SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your doorhttps://www.freshdirect.comFrontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentialshttps://www.frontgate.comCanopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that provides a local experiencehttps://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 begins02:10 – Why January demands sauce03:45 – Mini Meatballs Marsala explained06:30 – Don’t overwork your meatballs (science + regret)10:15 – Cooking as winter travel13:20 – Fan Mail: How else to use pesto18:45 – Measuring cups vs. reality22:30 – Building the Marsala sauce27:10 – What to cook for a small dinner party31:45 – Movie debates you didn’t ask for35:20 – Plating, tasting, and meatball joy38:10 – Fan Giveaway winner40:00 – 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 problems01:00 – Why January requires chocolate02:00 – Sheet cake as a fast, even-baking hero04:00 – Flavor lanes chosen: peanut butter, coconut, cherry06:00 – Cake-cutting technique and Carla’s knife standards09:00 – Petit fours vs. patience12:00 – Piping bags enter the chat15:00 – Coconut cream + ganache build18:00 – Taste tests and immediate regret (in a good way)21:00 – Why this cake works for parties and trifles24:00 – Fan questions and kitchen philosophy31:00 – Giveaway reveal34:00 – 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 setup02:10 — What’s in the Ohio fridge04:30 — Carla commits to comfort food06:00 — Road rage, kindness, and public etiquette12:40 — Mise en place explained (and defended)17:00 — Building the beef base + seasoning22:30 — Mashed potatoes get upgraded28:40 — Broiler finish + plating31:00 — Tasting and verdict37:00 — Final thoughts + sign-off 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.comFrontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon’s collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.comCaraway → Non-toxic cookware, even heating, easy cleanup, up to 20% off for the holidays.https://carawayhome.com/chewedupCanopy 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 Week02:45 – Why chicken tenders are having a moment04:00 – Feta brine: what it does and why it works07:10 – Flour, egg, breadcrumb (everything seasoned)10:30 – Frying for maximum crunch13:00 – Making hot honey from scratch17:00 – Sauce heat debates + acid balance21:00 – Fan mail & comfort food confessions28:00 – 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 mode02:00 The Gay Soup Diet explained05:30 Building flavor: onions, garlic, chickpeas07:00 Why smashing chickpeas changes everything10:00 Thermostat wars & cold-weather trauma14:00 Pasta, carrots, and soup texture talk18:00 Is soup actually a meal?20:30 Finishing touches: lemon, cheese, olive oil24:00 Bean Week returns (and gets vetoed)29:00 Listener Q&A: kitchen life lessons34:00 Fan Giveaway winner announced36:00 Final thoughts + why this soup works 🙌 SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.comFrontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon’s collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.comSeñorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margarita made with real juice and organic agave.https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20Caraway → Non-toxic cookware, even heating, easy cleanup, up to 20% off for the holidays.https://carawayhome.com/chewedupCanopy by Hilton → A lifestyle hotel brand by Hilton that aims to provide a local experience.https://www.hilton.com/en/canopyCasamara 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 unprepared01:20 – Fan Fridge Day explained02:40 – Cindy E’s fridge inventory chaos05:45 – Michael declares cabbage underrated07:10 – Bacon starts rendering10:00 – Gen X childhood and hose water discourse13:30 – Frontgate shout-out15:20 – Brown butter + miso basting begins18:40 – Dressing comes together22:30 – Pickled red onions save the dish25:00 – “Charred Cabbage and Friends” is named28:00 – Cooking philosophy: fat, acid, texture35:10 – Fan Giveaway: Bird Buddy37:00 – 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 cuisine07:30 – Farm-to-table before it was trendy11:00 – Building the squash purée15:00 – Michelin stars: chew it or screw it?20:30 – Sous-vide debate and cooking patience26:00 – Plating the pasta30:30 – Tasting + final verdict36:00 – Fan Giveaway 🙌 Special Thanks to Our Sponsors FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.comFrontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon’s collection featured on the show.https://www.frontgate.comCasamara Club → Botanical leisure sodas for mindful sipping without the booze.https://www.casamaraclub.comCanopy 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.
