Find Out Who Was Eliminated on Next Food Network Star: Recap and Spoilers

[chefcharity]

I said the same thing, Trish - about offering the other one a show. I think I liked the winner because it is so much like what we do!

 

[ChefMary412]

I missed the last show!!! I will go search online and find the winner..... hope it is my choice!YEAH!!

 

[susanr613]

FN has produced shows for runners-up in the past so i can see them doing it this time, esp since they said it was such a tough choice. i would definitely dvr both shows, as they each offer so much.

i am happy that the winner won in this case especially given the person's background and personal history.

the only people i would not want to win were the ones who showed a lack of integrity - brett, teddy, and debbie.

in the end, i'm amazed that every episode these people rise to the challenges and manage to make decent food!

DH and were like Wahoo, when the winner won. We had picked them from the very first show.

DH went out and set the DVR to record thier show. We also think that the runner up will have their own show also.

 

[legacypc46]

I loved their choice as well! I wouldn't be surprised if they end up offering the runner-up a show as well. Both were fantastic and the primary demographic of their shows are completely different. I would definitely watch both.

Okay, so when can we talk in more detail. I'd love to discuss a little about one of the pilot shows and the title of it and some questions I had about some things that were said.

 

[chefcharity]

I think we are in the clear! It is posted on foodnetwork.com who won....

 

[susanr613]

Oh I posted right after the show aired but didn't want to spoil it for anyone who had to DVR and watch this week. I did text my 12-year old son at his dad's house though!!

I am very much looking forward to Melissa's show, partly for the budget concious focus but mostly to pick up her tips. During the competition, once she gained confidence, those tips just kept coming and coming. I am not a natural cook, so I need all the help I can get! I can see taking her tips and recipes to my PC shows too.

I am also VERY impressed with her background. She has lived several lives and been through an experience I hope none of us have - her mother's suicide. She acknowledges that no matter whether you work outside the home or not, people are still very busy.

I hope FN gives Jeffrey his own show too. It seems like it would be fun to watch.

I was so happy to see Melissa win. I liked Jeffery, but her pilot show was great. I can't wait to see her show. She had so many great tips and the food was easy. I watch the food network to get cooking ideas....where in the world do you find Hersa or whatever that ingredient Jeffery used?

I also think it was the ultimate payback or brett, eddie & teddy that were so mean & disrespectful to Melissa. You know what they say about Karma??

 

[babywings76]

Yeah, her show is more real. His was really cool and I think he did a great job. But "smuggling" ingredients. Now how many people are going to have those weird ingredients on hand. I can't even find simple ingredients at my grocery stores sometimes!!! His whole show will revolve around some odd ingredient from another country, so how will I be able to take that into practice. I'm no world traveler. lol

 

[BlessedWifeMommy]

Looks like I am in total agreement. I was so nervous when they were making there decision. I said to my hubby, I think I am about to be disappointed. I was thinking the same thing about that ingredient thing. Last thing I need to do is try to find something I don't keep on hand.I am so excited for Melissa's new show!

I didn't watch this show- but am watching something on FN now and saw the commercial for her show. That seems like a great concept and hope it's full of great info! Just thing I'm looking for. I'm with you, Susan...not a natural cook- I can READ, that's how I survive in the kitchen. Have a few 'pot-smarts' that help here and there, but any tips are great!

 

[pampchefrhondab]

I'm looking forward to Melissa's show too!

 

[ChefEileen]

Does anyone know when Melissa's show will be on. I haven't ben able to find anything about it

 

[esavvymom]

I've seen it advertised as Sunday at 12:30pm eastern.

 

[BlessedWifeMommy]

I've seen it advertised as Sunday at 12:30pm eastern.

It comes on here in AZ at 12:30 on Sunday afternoons.

 

[susanr613]

i tivoed the first episode and watched it with DS. it was ok - i don't like the ones where there's no audience. she looks great and the recipes looked wonderful and easy to make.

OT question - is she pregnant, or is it leftover twins tummy?

 

[PCMomto4]

I wondered the same thing Susan when I saw her on a couple of the last episodes. I could not imagine being pregnant again with the four little ones she already has but you never know.

 

[ChefEileen]

I've seen it advertised as Sunday at 12:30pm eastern.

Thank you for the info

 

[legacypc46]

Thank you! I hope to catch the show this weekend.

Okay, I'm going to have to go watch it again.

I missed it, but we talked about it at Cluster. One lady said that the show-concept wasn't her original concept that she wanted to do and that she looked 'uncomfortable'. She said she's seen her do better.....so maybe it will just take her some time to get "into her groove". I bet Rachael Ray wasn't so hot right out of the starting gate either!

OT - I watched a Food Network show today- Quick Fix Meals with Robin Miller. It was really good and super easy! She made 3 meals- she did less than an hour of prep work on the weekend, then had 3 meals (breakfast for dinner) ready in under 15 minutes, and they were everyday type of meals! My kids and I were inspired to create...now we just need to SHOP.
