We challenged chefs of three different skill levels - an amateur, a home cook, and a professional - to make us a roast chicken. After each of them had presented their creation, we asked a food scientist to review their work. Who can boast the best roast? Whose bird is the word? A-well, a bird, bird, bird...

This man was attacked by a rack of dirty dishes as a child.

He's not a Level 1. He's just a lazy Level 2 😂

You just know that Jay eats his chicken straight off the roasting dish at home so he doesn't dirty a plate

"fat equals flavor." Well I guess I'm flavorful then.

This is legitimately the most competent Level 1 Chef we've had.

The level 1 chef is a level 2 chef that just doesn’t like prep and hates cleanup

I love that the Level 1 chef didn’t try to be a chef. He sold his lifestyle: no dishes. Exactly what we’re looking for

Legends say that no one hates doing dishes more than Jay

Mom: Jay it's your turn to wash dishes Little Jay: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO😭😭😭😭!!!!
@nanonova5909 4 years ago

I would love to see an episode where Jay, Lorenzo, and Frank all make something. It would have the relatability of Jay, the humor of Lorenzo, and then just the essence of Frank's being to create the trifecta of 4-levels. Please make this a reality!!
