Who’s ready for a big budget burrito battle? Pro chef Saul Montiel from Cantina Rooftop and home cook Bianca are swapping their recipe ingredients and hoping for the best! We set Bianca up with all of the supplies she’d need to create Chef Saul’s decadent Mar y Tierra Burrito, while sending her modest chicken burrito ingredients back the other direction. While Saul was using his skills and experience to elevate Bianca’s recipe, food scientist Rose dialed in to assist Bianca along her way. How did everything wrap up? Tune in and find out.

    Saul has the skills of a great chef but the mind of a comedian. What an amazing guy
  • @rodrigoc.4621
    Saul is the type of guy that closes the fridge with his hips.
  • @keith3915
    I had no clue how Saul could have possibly elevated those ingredients but that looks like the best burrito I've ever seen.
  • @xmelseru
    saul needs his own cooking show, dude is hilarious
  • @Nevicka3
    "I wish I had lime.. Bianca..BIANCA.. I wish I had lime 🥲" IM DYING
  • @chaoskitteh
    When Chef Saul said "am I saying this right my love?" I absolutely melted. That's so sweet!
  • @MonicaRodriguez-sx9rs
    I LOVE THAT HE JUST KEPT SAYING “a little bit of Monica in my life” instead of the full song 🤣🥰

    "What's better than cheese? More cheese" -Chef Saul, 2021
  • @supersassy97
    I really appreciate Saul’s commitment to using Bianca’s ingredients. He doesn’t substitute and freestyle.
  • @morsumbra9692
    Both these two deserve there own show. Bianca amd Saul killin it
  • @camerongrondzki2716
    My man's really just made a $10 burrito look infinitely better and more expensive than a $100 burrito. Proof that you don't need expensive ingredients to make high quality food
  • @ChuChild
    I woulda been so stressed if I was Bianca. She tried and she stayed positive. But like.. it's hard to use ingredients when you don't know how the ingredients are gonna taste or affect the flavor. Couldn't be me lmao
  • @calebdavenport6673
    From my experience working in the kitchen Hispanic people are usually always funny asf to work worth this guy seems like a good boss or coworker 😂💯
  • @deniserodrigues1791
    Chef Saul is hysterical, knowledgeable, talented and very entertaining.... definitely needs his own show 💕
  • @caseyclover1647
    The dude makes 100 dollar burritos yet still saved 2 pieces of 10dollar burrito for his daughters. That's a real man right there! Edit- I love what y'all are doing in the comments! Let's keep going!!!!!
  • @michelbrand1470
    You can see how much Saúl loves cooking. He's just having the time of his life on cam. Loving it!
  • @germantorres8782
    It’s hilarious to see someone so fascinated with cactus paddles as an ingredient because as a Mexican kid, I grew up with my mom cooking with nopales very often 😂
