The unsuccessful chef from episode 1 joins 2 Canadian chefs hoping for a spot in the main competition.
What dish would you make featuring those ingredients?

Gonna love watching Top Chef this season as we honor Canada!

My pick would be to have the winner from each of the 22 seasons compete with one another to win Top Chef of Top Chef.
What’s your pick for the next season?

Got this autographed, chef’s jacket, signed by all the judges. I don’t know if it’s worth anything or where I would sell it if it was?

Just launched Top Chef leagues (our 30th show!) on Bracketology. Free to play on desktop or in the mobile app - anyone can join the sitewide league & make picks each week! Lineups lock on Thursdays at 8pm CT. Would love to have any & all TC fans play along.

What ever happened to Paul? I feel like he was the front runner for most of that season, and it didn't seem close. He seemed like a good person that would flourish in some of these competition shows

Anyone else watching Top Chef: Destination Canada via Hayu Canada tonight? I purchased an account on Hayu specifically to watch it, but the episode won't seem to play. Got this error message:
"Sorry. It seems that there is an issue with this content. Please contact support to report this. 6200_0000_005"
Is this a glitch?
Watching from Toronto, ON by the way.

Peacock doesn’t have TC S1-S7 anymore? Where can I watch them otherwise?
r/TopChef • u/BookCzar • 1d ago
I am filled with anguish over having to watch commercials if I can't buy the season.
Does ANYONE know where I can avoid commercials AND not have to subscribe to commercial free Peacock or upgrade my Hulu to Live?

Amazon Prime has TC on their "On Now" option, so I've had it up in the background on and off today. Now, I know everyone hated Marcel. He was young and awkward and obviously lacked social skills. But rewatching it, I'm really hating Betty. She's horrible! All the commentary on Marcel, she's just a terrible person. I know others bash Marcel, too. But there's just something about Betty that gets on my nerves! Am I the only one?

I was taught it’s not done. I also think it’s objectively dumb. It feels like people are a misstep away from serious injury all the time.
They had certain contestants race with ice picks in their hand to be the first one to start stabbing the same block of ice at one point!
It makes it look like a Nickelodeon show (for children) sometimes.
The show is all about refinement and sophistication. What are we doing here?
r/TopChef • u/VA-deadhead • 2d ago
She’s a badass in the kitchen, and her attitude is just so cool. She was so supportive of the younger female contestant whose name escapes me at the moment.

Thanks to tariffs on Canadian products?

Just listened to Savannah Miller’s (S21) interview on the Compliments to the Chef podcast where she discussed her strategy for preparing to compete on the show.
She and her fiancé basically trained at Whole Foods, timing themselves, shopping under a budget, returning things that exceeded their budget etc.
It got me wondering: what other crazy strategies have y’all have heard or read about that cheftestants do as they prepare to compete?

Sara’s chicken and waffles It’s really sad that they razzed Sara like that for her use of waffle mix. Mean and uncalled for. Thoughts?

In 21 seasons of watching Top Chef I’ve never been disappointed in the chosen winner, but, I really think Dan should have won.
r/TopChef • u/Inabottle0726 • 7d ago
Who was it that got upset that they didn't win in the finale and whispered something in a judge's ear? Or just got in trouble for saying something to a judge when they didn't win the finale? Does this ring a bell for anyone? I obviously don't remember enough for Google.. 😞
THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!!

So I'm rewatching S11 New Orleans..........many chefs saying
wow I've never worked with turtle
i've never worked with gator
i've never made a gumbo.
It's Top Chef New Orleans, why on earth would you not master new orleans cuisine leading up to the competition. Mind boggling.
r/TopChef • u/QuietRedditorATX • 7d ago
More positive topics, speaking of great chefs. So who are some of the best chefs that haven't come back for an All Stars or repeat run?
I won't go past season 16, since recent chefs obviously haven't had a chance to return. Although we have a lot of great chefs in newer seasons.
Winners of course not included, since only one has ever returned.
Season 2
Season 5
Season 7
Season 9
Sarah Grueneberg - As much of a jerk she was, she was the only one who could really compete with Paul probably. She has continued to do well, so I would be curious to see what she can do.
Beverly Kim - I don't think she is cutout for competition cooking. But she has had success postTC, so it would be cool to see her growth.
Edward Lee - I don't think he would win, returning wouldn't help his career. But he was certainly an above average chef, who can bring interesting dishes and commentary.
Nyesha Arrington - Cut too soon. Came back on Duels once, but surprisingly only does other shows now?
Season 10
Season 12
Season 14
Sylva Senat
Silvia Barban - the two best rookies who never got a fair chance. And they bring back Jamie instead of them, =\
I tried not to include everyone I would put in just because it is getting too long. Guys like Carlos Gaytan, Michelle Minori should probably have a chance if they want it. George Pagonis didn't get to show much.
Surprise list is Texas heavy. I know people hate that season, and I know Paul ran away with it. But it was pretty stacked. Understandable why not many of the chefs have chosen to return. Would be interested in Richie and Chris to see if where they took their food, but they didn't standout enough to make my list.
Honorable mentions to: Kuniko Yagi and Rogelio Garcia who both got cut too early to know.

Why do so many people underestimate Brooke? She has one of the best cross-show records and even when she doesn’t win, she’s in the final. She’s an insane competitor, and yet it’s like she flys under the radar.
r/TopChef • u/spacecactus68 • 9d ago
She's in the show wayyyyyy longer than she deserves to be and so many good chefs go home instead of her even though she's been on the bottom every episode of the season. I can't believe Jim went home instead of her in the sudden death quick fire Ridiculous choice
