Alton Brown Thread

He is my favorite cooking show host,
and knows everything,
and is superior to any other food channel star.

This thread is for us to remember and learn some of his tips and facts.
Post whatever jumps out at you from the show that you remember as useful.

For Example:
I really like the hamburger episode.
Alton said the mayonnaise acts as a shield for the bun. Its fat content blocks the juice from the meat from saturating the bun, which is why one should always spread mayonnaise on the bottom bun.

    Alton Brown is a bad ass. I love that show. I haven't seen a new one in a long time though.

    Pretty much the only show I won't watch on the food network.

    Giada, Rachael Ray, Paula Deen, Bobby Flay, Emeril, Sandra, Barefoot Contessa lady, and that douche bag with the bleach blond spikey hair > Alton Brown.

    I prefer Iron Chef. Not the shitty American one either. Sea Urchin battle for the win!

    Alton Brown is king. I love cooking, but I also cherish my geeky side. You all realize he's allergic to shellfish? Which is strange how often they make him cook such things.

    Dude when the Food Network showed the original Iron Chef, my parents watched almost every showing. I grew up watching the original Kaga host. That and Alton Brown's good Eats.

    I'd pass on the Rachel Ray. It's that manly ass voice. And her Mannerisms are rather disgusting. But that Giada. Hot damn. I don't care about a little jew nose, with a face and body like that. She needs to be my sugar momma. And cook for me all the time. And her bank account is probably as nice as her body! :hai:
