Built on a simple base of butter, onions, and stock, the soup gets blended with sweet peas, fresh herbs, lemon zest, and cream for a silky, vibrant finish that tastes like the season itself. It’s light, elegant, and shockingly simple — the kind of dish that feels fancy but requires almost no effort.

But this is Chewed Up… so naturally, things spiral.

In between blending and seasoning, the crew dives headfirst into Peep Roulette, a chaotic tasting game featuring wildly flavored marshmallow Peeps — from cake batter to cotton candy to Dr. Pepper. Michael Symon is absolutely horrified, Clinton is thriving, and Carla is somewhere in the middle trying to keep it all together.

The episode wraps with fan mail, hot takes on condiments, and a reminder that sometimes the best palate cleanser after total chaos… is a perfect bowl of soup.

Then things get even better when Carla introduces her culinary producer and longtime friend, Ariane Duarte, who brings serious flavor (and personality) into the mix. From Top Chef stories to behind-the-scenes realities of cooking competitions, Ariane shares how those experiences shaped her—and how food has always been about connection and joy.

In the kitchen, Ariane walks the hosts through a build-your-own crostini situation that’s equal parts elevated and approachable. Starting with homemade focaccia and whipped ricotta, the group layers on bright, seasonal toppings—think smashed peas with herbs, blistered vegetables, and strawberries with balsamic and almonds. The result? A perfect spring entertaining dish that’s flexible, beautiful, and packed with flavor.

Of course, no episode would be complete without a round of Chew It or Screw It, fan mail, and a few wildly off-topic (but hilarious) tangents—because on Chewed Up, the conversation is just as important as the food.

Michael Symon brings a deeply personal dish to the table — ricotta cavatelli, a pasta he grew up making with his grandmother. As he walks through the process step-by-step, what starts as a cooking demo quickly turns into something more meaningful: a conversation about food, memory, and why cooking is about connection as much as it is about technique.

Carla jumps in to help shape the pasta (with a debatable level of success), while the conversation bounces between unpredictable spring weather, fitness realities, travel stories, and what it really means to cook “well.”

The dish itself is a celebration of the season — tender homemade pasta tossed in a bright, silky brown butter sauce with peas, asparagus, lemon, and fresh dill. It’s simple, vibrant, and packed with flavor.

By the end, the verdict is clear: fresh pasta isn’t just about the final dish — it’s about the experience. And yes… it’s absolutely worth it.

Carla Hall then takes the lead with a refreshing pineapple–lime agua fresca infused with ginger, showcasing a simple, vibrant mocktail that can easily be turned into a cocktail with rum or tequila. The drink highlights bright citrus flavors and easy batching techniques perfect for entertaining.

Clinton follows with a quick, seasonal citrus salsa that swaps tomatoes for fresh oranges, jalapeño, red onion, and herbs—proving that winter citrus can deliver bold, fresh flavor. The dish comes together in minutes and works as both a dip and a topping for proteins like grilled fish or chicken.

The episode continues with interactive audience games, giveaways, and candid conversations about cooking mistakes, kitchen confidence, and simple techniques for beginner cooks. It’s a perfect blend of entertainment and practical cooking inspiration, all delivered with the crew’s signature humor and chemistry.

Mika brings the group deep into authentic Cuban cooking, skipping the tourist-famous Cuban sandwich in favor of a true local staple: pan con lechón. Built from slow-roasted pork shoulder marinated in a garlic-heavy mojo, the dish delivers rich, citrusy flavor with perfectly crisped edges and signature chicharrón.

The sandwich comes together with sautéed onions, a smoky-spicy cumin aioli, and a surprising crunch from shoestring potatoes — a combination that hits every texture and flavor note.

Along the way, Mika shares her journey from baking in her mom’s garage to launching a food truck and competing on Food Network, all while staying true to her Cuban roots. The conversation moves from Miami food culture to late-night hustle, parenting, and the realities of the restaurant industry.

The episode wraps with a Cuban coffee demo (complete with espuma technique), a surprise guest appearance, and one of the most satisfying bites of the season.

The centerpiece of the episode is her Indian-inspired coconut ceviche, where fresh fish is “cooked” in citrus and layered with garlic, chili, onion, and coconut milk. But the real magic comes from the finishing touch — a sizzling tadka of toasted spices, curry leaves, and aromatics that elevates the dish into something deeply fragrant, complex, and unforgettable.

Beyond the food, the conversation dives into Maneet’s culinary journey, the cultural depth of Indian cuisine, and how food connects people across languages and borders. The crew also plays a lively round of Chew It or Screw It, shares travel bucket list destinations, and wraps with a bright, effervescent Key Lime Cardamom Fizz — complete with a dramatic champagne saber moment. This episode is a celebration of fearless cooking, cultural fusion, and the joy of sharing food.

Damaris introduces three nostalgic and flavor-packed spreads: pimento cheese, Benedictine (a creamy cucumber-dill spread), and ham salad. What starts as a refined “afternoon tea” concept quickly turns into a chaotic, triple-decker sandwich experiment as the hosts layer all three spreads into one outrageous creation.

Along the way, the group shares stories, debates controversial food takes in a round of “Chew It or Screw It,” and leans into their signature humor and chemistry. Damaris breaks down how simple these spreads are to make (or even buy), proving that anyone can build a beautiful and delicious sandwich board without cooking.

The episode wraps with a fan giveaway featuring Damaris’ iconic thrift store kitchen finds and a heartfelt moment reflecting on friendship, authenticity, and what makes their bond so strong.

Scott shares the story behind his now-iconic reputation (yes, including the “red onion guy” moment), while revealing the philosophy that defines his cooking: less is more — but only when done right.

In the kitchen, Scott prepares a delicate ricotta-based gnocchi packed with broccoli rabe, spinach, and basil, paired with a silky butter sauce stabilized with a clever cornstarch technique and finished with his signature Martone Street marinara. Along the way, he breaks down essential techniques — from properly salting pasta water (hint: not like the ocean) to extracting maximum flavor from simple ingredients.

The episode blends humor, heartfelt storytelling, and serious culinary insight, as Scott reflects on family, his daughters, and the inspiration behind Martone Street — a tribute to the home where his love of food began.

It’s a masterclass in thoughtful simplicity — proving that the most powerful dishes often come from restraint, intention, and great ingredients.

Michael Symon prepares grilled shrimp with citrus mojo sauce, a bright and garlicky dish inspired by the bold flavors of Miami and Cuban cooking. The shrimp are marinated in lime juice, lime zest, chili flakes, and olive oil before being grilled quickly to keep them perfectly tender.

Meanwhile, Michael blends a vibrant mojo sauce made from sour oranges, garlic, onion, fresh herbs, salt, and pepper. The citrus-forward sauce brings bold flavor and brightness to the grilled shrimp.

As the shrimp cook, the hosts chat about Miami food favorites like Cuban sandwiches and stone crab, debate beach vs. pool vacations, and share their favorite sandwiches and cheeses.

Once plated, the shrimp are served over the bright mojo sauce and shared with the audience for a taste test — creating a simple, vibrant seafood dish that captures the spirit of Miami cooking.

Michael decides to cook something inspired by the location — a bright crab pasta packed with lemon, tarragon, crème fraîche, and buttery toasted breadcrumbs. The dish is designed specifically with Clinton and Carla in mind, blending flavors they love into one irresistible seafood pasta.

As the pasta cooks, the trio dives into a lively conversation about food tourism, favorite comedy movies, and what makes a restaurant truly great — even when it’s a tourist destination. Michael also shares tips on how to properly cook pasta, why crème fraîche works better than butter in some sauces, and how to keep delicate crab the star of the dish.

Once the pasta is tossed together with jumbo lump crab and finished with crispy lemon-chive panko crumbs, the hosts rave about how the light sauce allows the seafood to shine.

The episode wraps with fan mail questions, a discussion about Chinese takeout orders, and a lively audience giveaway featuring Michael Symon’s mustard and bourbon tasting trays.

Michael kicks things off with a story about his dog Norman escaping in Los Angeles and the surprising community effort that helped bring him home. The conversation quickly turns into classic Chewed Up chaos — stories about lost pets, menopause brain fog, air fryer debates, and the realities of life and marriage after decades in the food world.

In the kitchen, Carla Hall introduces a refreshing vegetarian twist on ceviche: a Watermelon–Buttermilk “Ceviche.” Inspired by Miami’s heat and vibrant flavors, the dish combines diced watermelon with cucumber, jalapeño, herbs, and a tangy buttermilk-lime dressing. The result is bright, cooling, sweet, spicy, and slightly creamy — perfect for warm weather or festival snacking.

Carla demonstrates her efficient watermelon-cutting technique while explaining the inspiration behind the dish and the classic principles of ceviche. The hosts taste the dish and immediately agree it’s a vibrant summer appetizer that works beautifully with crispy plantain or cassava chips.

The episode also features fan mail, audience giveaways, and a celebration of the show’s independent format — where the hosts can finally say whatever they want, cook what they want, and show the brands they actually love.

Michael Symon begins with a legendary Miami institution: Joe’s Stone Crab. He shares his long history with the restaurant — which has been serving guests for over a century — and walks through his personal ordering ritual. The hosts dig into Joe’s famous fried chicken starter, followed by the star of the show: stone crab claws served chilled with mustard sauce, plus classic sides like creamed spinach and crispy hashbrown potatoes.

Clinton Kelly follows with one of his own Miami comfort-food favorites from Versailles, the iconic Cuban restaurant. The table fills with ropa vieja, white rice, black beans, maduros (sweet fried plantains), and tostones (crispy green plantains). The dishes spark conversation about Miami’s evolving food culture and Clinton’s memories of living in Miami Beach during the Chew years.

Carla Hall brings dessert with Fireman Derek’s Key Lime Pie, prompting a surprisingly serious debate about what makes the perfect key lime pie — from crust thickness to the balance of tartness and sweetness.

Along the way, the hosts share stories from the festival, spring break road trips to the Florida Keys, restaurant traditions, and the perks (and occasional chaos) of being recognizable in food towns.

The episode wraps with a fan mail cooking question, where each host reveals a cooking technique they’d love to master — including sous vide, raw bar skills, braising, and bread baking — followed by a chaotic round of live giveaways with the audience.

It’s part food tour, part nostalgia trip, and a celebration of Miami’s incredible food scene — all served with the signature Chewed Up humor.

In This Episode

Chewed Up heads to the South Beach Wine & Food Festival for a special live episode. Instead of cooking, the hosts bring their favorite Miami foods to the stage and share the restaurants they always visit when they’re in town.

Michael Symon introduces the iconic Joe’s Stone Crab, serving fried chicken, chilled stone crab claws with mustard sauce, creamed spinach, and crispy hashbrown potatoes. Clinton Kelly follows with Cuban comfort classics from Versailles, including ropa vieja, black beans, rice, and plantains. Carla Hall closes things out with Fireman Derek’s famous key lime pie, sparking a debate about the perfect balance of tart, sweet, and crust.

The trio also answers a fan mail question about cooking techniques they’d love to master and give away Miami-themed prizes to viewers and audience members.

Carla Hall shocks Clinton Kelly and Michael Symon by going all-in on her ultimate solo indulgence: spiralized hot dogs topped with a rich, bean-less chili inspired by Detroit-style Coney dogs. What starts as a simple hot dog turns into a masterclass in texture, nostalgia, and flavor engineering.

Along the way, the trio dives into the idea of “fun food” — the meals that bring joy whether you’re cooking for yourself, your family, or your inner child. From pimped-out cereal creations and homemade sundaes to Nutella sandwiches and decadent cheese nights, the conversation swings between culinary technique and hilarious personal stories.

Listeners also learn surprising food history (Detroit — not Coney Island — as the home of the Coney dog), cooking recovery tricks when recipes go sideways, and why spiralizing a hot dog creates maximum crispy edges and topping distribution.

Michael Symon shares one of his favorite “home alone” meals: a walk-away French-style omelet, designed to deliver creamy, delicate eggs without the pressure of traditional chef techniques. Inspired by classic French omelets and legends like Jacques Pépin, Michael breaks down how to create soft curds, avoid browning, and let residual heat do the work — proving that great eggs are more about method than skill.

Along the way, Clinton Kelly and Carla Hall dive into egg nostalgia, diner breakfasts, dishwasher debates, personal style confessions, and fan mail questions that spiral into hilarious tangents. The trio also discusses why people are so passionate about how eggs should be cooked — and why there’s really no wrong answer.

This episode centers around a crave-worthy, comfort-food classic with a twist: Portobello Mushroom Parmesan Subs.

Instead of chicken, thick, meaty portobello caps are roasted until tender, layered onto hero rolls, smothered in marinara, and blanketed with mozzarella and Parmesan before being broiled to bubbly perfection. It’s hearty, satisfying, and bold enough to convert even the most skeptical meat-lover.

Between roasting mushrooms and melting cheese, the trio dive into unfiltered takes on meatless cooking, sandwich superiority debates, and what really makes comfort food comforting. Expect sharp humor, kitchen chaos, strong opinions, and a lot of cheese pulls.

Inspired by sports-style elimination rounds, the hosts sample brownies head-to-head, debating fudginess, cakiness, moisture, chocolate intensity, and even the eternal “center vs corner” debate.

As the competition unfolds, different styles rise and fall based on texture, flavor, and overall chocolate satisfaction. The trio compares classic, cakey brownies with dense, ultra-fudgy options while revealing how small differences in ingredients and preparation can dramatically change the final result.

With brand reveals, nostalgic reactions, and plenty of laughs along the way, the episode delivers a fun, practical guide to navigating the brownie aisle.

Clinton Kelly and Michael Symon dive into nostalgic meatloaf memories—from Italian-style versions to Midwest family dinners—while discussing how simple flavor swaps can completely reinvent a recipe. The trio share practical cooking tips, like mixing spices separately before adding meat and keeping onions raw for moisture and tenderness.

As the loaf bakes, the conversation expands to global variations, from Greek-inspired seasoning to Thai-style flavors and beyond. The result is a juicy, flavorful meatloaf served with a bright cabbage slaw for contrast, proving that classic comfort food can be endlessly adaptable—and just as satisfying the next day in sandwich form.

The hosts reflect on how expectations shift depending on where you are in a relationship — from early dating nerves to decades-long partnerships — and how romance evolves over time.

They’re joined by relationship expert and Tinder’s resident expert Devyn Simone, who shares insights from dating culture today, including the importance of communication, emotional honesty, and shared values. She breaks down modern dating behaviors like ghosting and “situationships,” explaining how younger generations are increasingly prioritizing intentional relationships and clear expectations.

The conversation blends humor and honesty: from texting etiquette after hookups to whether cooking on a first date is romantic or too intimate. Meanwhile, Clinton walks viewers through making beurre blanc from scratch and plating a confident, restaurant-level meal at home.

It’s a mix of comfort food, real relationship advice, and chaotic kitchen energy — all in time for Valentine’s Day.

The crew breaks down why Super Bowl food should be mobile, snackable, and fork-free, while Carla walks through the surprisingly simple science of croquettes — a rich béchamel loaded with ham, Gruyère, cheddar, Dijon, and crushed Doritos for maximum flavor. Along the way, they spiral into football fantasies, fifth-grade croquette trauma, Cool Ranch nostalgia, and one of the most unexpected moments in Chewed Up history: Josh Capon literally calling in mid-show and crashing the set.

From Doritos-as-breadcrumbs brilliance to heartfelt reflections on careers, friendship, and following through in life, this episode delivers big laughs, real emotion, and a Super Bowl snack that absolutely earns its place on the table. Handheld, make-ahead, freezer-friendly, and dangerously addictive — these croquettes are a win no matter who takes the trophy.

This episode kicks off with chaos before the grill even heats up — literally. After a late-night hotel mishap involving Carla Hall, a glass door, and a perfectly timed “smash face,” Michael Symon finds unexpected inspiration for the ultimate Super Bowl dish: the smash burger.

Joined by Clinton Kelly, the trio dives deep into what makes the perfect smash burger: high-fat beef, aggressive smashing, caramelized onions, American cheese, and a firm refusal to accept brioche buns or ketchup. Michael walks through his go-to smash burger method, from beef ratios and potato rolls to his long-lasting secret sauce made with mayo, relish, horseradish, mustard, Worcestershire, and Crystal hot sauce.

Along the way, the conversation veers delightfully off course — from condiment loyalties and Super Bowl habits to fashion hot takes, airport pajamas, restaurant sharing etiquette, and the underrated magic of Parmesan rinds. Clinton officially declares the Gay Soup Diet dead, Carla waxes poetic about potato rolls, and Nick earns a double smash complete with full “meat lace.”

The episode wraps with Super Bowl hosting ideas, a shoutout to Taste of the NFL, sponsor love, and a fan giveaway featuring Michael’s Simply Symon Suppers cookbook. Loud, delicious, and completely unfiltered — this is Chewed Up at full volume.

Clinton proves that beans deserve a permanent place in weeknight cooking with his lightning-fast Chickpea and Spinach Pasta—crispy chickpeas, garlicky greens, and a creamy hummus-based sauce that skips the cream without sacrificing flavor. It’s cheap, fast, and unapologetically practical.

Then things take a turn.

Broadway composer and longtime friend Zina Goldrich joins the kitchen to “button up” Bean Week the only logical way possible: with perfectly chewy chocolate chip cookies and fully original musical numbers written for each host. What follows is part cooking show, part cabaret, part therapy session, and fully unhinged in the best way.

Between cookies, pasta, impromptu songs, and a brutally honest round of Chew It or Screw It, the episode celebrates creativity, failure, friendship, and the idea that sometimes the best food (and ideas) come from just showing up and trying.

Bean Week ends not with a whimper—but with jazz hands.

In this deeply nostalgic episode, Michael walks Clinton Kelly and Carla Hall through his old-school, soul-warming version of the Italian-American classic—thick enough to blur the line between soup and stew, and absolutely designed to be eaten with bread instead of a spoon. Along the way, the trio debates how to pronounce “pasta fazool,” why peasant food will always beat trendy food, and how the best family recipes are rarely written down.

As the beans simmer and the pancetta renders, the conversation drifts into family cooking traditions, immigrant kitchens, and the emotional power of food made with love. Michael shares stories of his Greek-Italian upbringing, Carla talks about cooking by feel instead of measurements, and Clinton champions simple classics over flashy plates.

The episode wraps with an unapologetically aggressive Parmesan topping, a generous glug of olive oil, crusty bread for dipping, and the collective agreement that this is the kind of dish you make when you want to take care of people.

Comfort food. No ego. No trends. Just beans, pasta, and heart.

In this episode, Carla Hall kicks off Bean Week with her black bean empanadas made using a foolproof cream cheese dough — the catering-world workhorse that refuses to be overworked. As Carla walks Clinton and Michael through folding, sealing, and not exploding empanadas in the oven, the conversation spirals into Blue Zones, aging well, bean myths, and why raisins deserve more respect.

Along the way, Clinton Kelly defends Bean Week like it’s Shark Week’s misunderstood cousin, Michael Symon debates refried beans and ancient Roman bean superstitions, and the crew plays Bean or BS — settling once and for all whether beans contain the souls of the dead (spoiler: ancient Romans thought so).

There’s empanada pinching, dough talk, freezer tips, fan mail chaos, TV war stories, and a fan giveaway packed with Camellia Beans goodies. It’s loud, comforting, slightly educational, and exactly how Bean Week was meant to start.

In this episode of Chewed Up, Carla makes a Moroccan-inspired apple and date crumble infused with cinnamon and cardamom — warm, fragrant, and unapologetically comforting. The trio talks winter survival strategies, the magic of dates (including a brief detour through Indiana Jones), and why crumbles are the most forgiving dessert in existence.

The conversation drifts from food into culture, aging, and appearance — including a thoughtful, candid discussion about gray hair, confidence, and why women shouldn’t have to negotiate their looks to exist professionally. It’s funny, real, occasionally chaotic, and anchored by a dessert that quietly steals the show.

This is Chewed Up at its best: cozy food, sharp opinions, and zero interest in pretending January is fine.

This episode kicks off deep in the gray-zone doldrums, where Clinton Kelly declares Bean Week a public service and introduces a Tuscan White Bean & Chicken Sausage Stew so comforting it might qualify as mental health care.

Joining the chaos is Marysol Castro, the first female and first Latina PA announcer for the New York Mets, who instantly becomes family. The conversation ricochets from winter misery to wedding stories, control-freak confessions, Virgo placements, and an aggressive round of Chew It or Screw It that somehow includes pineapple pizza, early call times, and the Yankees.

Between spoonfuls of lemony, rosemary-scented stew, the group debates baseball rules (poorly), driver rankings (competitively), and why soup may be the only reliable backup plan when television inevitably betrays you.

It’s cozy, chaotic, deeply comforting — and proof that beans always win.

As the meatballs brown, the hosts dive into what comfort food actually means in winter: hibernation energy, food as travel, aging without apology, and the sensory power of cooking that brings you right back to your grandparents’ kitchen. Along the way, they unpack meatball science (don’t overwork it, keep the fat whole), why breadcrumbs matter more than you think, and how browning equals flavor.

Fan mail sparks side quests into pesto hacks, measuring cup myths, dinner-party strategy, and the movies you’ll always stop scrolling for. The result is classic Chewed Up chaos: deeply practical cooking advice, loud laughter, and a reminder that the best meals don’t need to be expensive or complicated—just made with intention and sauce.

Clinton bakes a fast, sturdy, ultra-moist chocolate cake designed to be messed with. From there, the kitchen turns into a full-on dessert lab: peanut butter layers and butterscotch chips become party-ready petit fours, Carla builds a stacked, Black Forest–inspired showpiece with sour cherry jam and triple frostings, and Michael leans into coconut nostalgia with a ganache-topped chocolate coconut bar finished with sea salt.

What starts as baking quickly becomes crafting—complete with piping bags, Jenga-style cake engineering, knife-dragging debates, and the philosophical question of whether decorating is worth the emotional damage. Along the way, the trio talks cake-cutting technique, party shortcuts, trifles, grandkids, baking patience (or lack thereof), and why this cake works as a base for just about anything.

The takeaway: this isn’t about perfection. It’s about giving people a great cake and letting them go feral with toppings.

Carla takes the reins, steering the chaos toward comfort by building a Shepherd’s Pie–inspired casserole, layering deeply browned beef, aromatic vegetables, herbs, and creamy mashed potatoes finished under the broiler. Along the way, the hosts spiral (productively) into conversations about road rage, kindness, kitchen discipline, mise en place, appliance overload, and why not every trend belongs on your countertop.

The episode balances sharp humor with genuine warmth, landing on what Chewed Up does best: turning everyday food into something satisfying, approachable, and deeply human. It’s messy, funny, oddly philosophical—and one of the strongest Fan Fridge wins yet.

Along the way, Clinton Kelly and Carla Hall dive into comfort food nostalgia, regional fried-chicken debates, hot honey’s cultural takeover, and why you should always trust what actually tastes good—no matter what the internet tells you. There’s crunchy crust talk, brining secrets, sauce debates, and just enough chaos to remind you this is Chewed Up.

This episode is a masterclass in making familiar food better without overthinking it—and a reminder that fried chicken, when done right, is undefeated.

As the soup simmers, the conversation goes everywhere: growing up afraid to touch the thermostat, how cold weather hits harder as you get older, sleeping temperatures that spark genuine disbelief, and Clinton’s infamous “Gay Soup Diet”—a January survival strategy that involves staying home, eating soup, and minding your business.

The Bean Week concept makes a controversial reappearance (and is immediately vetoed… again), soup earns its rightful place as a full meal, and the trio digs into why comfort food matters—emotionally and practically—when winter drags on. Along the way, they tackle listener questions, kitchen life lessons, stress cooking habits, whistling controversies, and the eternal truth: frozen vegetables are a gift.

Warm, funny, honest, and deeply relatable, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the best solution is a big bowl of soup and zero apologies.

The star of the episode is cabbage — an ingredient Michael argues is wildly underrated. He chars a full round of cabbage in bacon fat, bastes it with brown butter and miso, and finishes it with a creamy, tangy yogurt dressing loaded with scallions, avocado, mustard, lemon, and crispy bacon. Pickled red onions save the day at the last second, and suddenly the “healthy-ish” Fresh Start Week actually delivers.

Along the way, the trio riffs on Gen X childhoods, grilled romaine trauma, miso’s misunderstood versatility, soft-scrambled eggs, restaurant ordering regrets, and why soufflés are always worth ordering out. The episode wraps with real cooking wisdom — fat, acid, texture — and a fan giveaway that proves Clinton Kelly has fully entered his bird-watching era.

Charlie walks through his career arc, from high-school home ec to Michelin stars, while the group debates the evolution (and occasional nonsense) of Michelin ratings, TikTok recipes, sous-vide shortcuts, and what American cuisine even means when innovation never stops. Along the way, they cook a deeply comforting yet refined paccheri pasta with koginut squash purée, brown butter, Parmigiano, and stracciatella — a dish that proves restraint can be louder than excess.

The conversation stays loose, honest, and funny, touching on mentorship, legacy, cooking with patience, raising the next generation of chefs, and why some rules are worth breaking while others are worth mastering. It’s thoughtful without being precious, elevated without being annoying — exactly how Palmer cooks.

Carla takes the lead in the kitchen with a Southern New Year’s Black-Eyed Pea Stew with Collards & Rice, a dish rooted in tradition, symbolism, and straight-up comfort. Black-eyed peas for luck, greens for prosperity, rice to bring it all together — it’s a bowl that feels like a reset button.

Joining the table is Deb Grayson Riegel, executive coach, author, and co-creator of The Me Menu. Deb brings the heat on mindset: why intention beats resolution, how values quietly run your life, and why doing the work (yes, the boring part) is non-negotiable.

Between stories about New York, family, boundaries, and the realities of growth, the episode lands exactly where Chewed Up lives best — equal parts funny, thoughtful, and deeply human. This isn’t “new year, new you.” It’s “new year, do it smarter.”

Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon welcome back Chef Jackie “Sparkles” Bakula, now all grown up, married, and juggling two kids — but still bringing the same calm-in-the-chaos energy that once saved countless live TV moments. The group reminisces about freezing studio kitchens, feeding entire audiences from postage-stamp prep spaces, and the early days of viral food before “viral” was a job description.

On the food front, this episode is a New Year’s Eve party blueprint. Carla and Jackie build the Parm & Prosciutto Chip Tower — a dangerously simple mountain of kettle chips baked with honey and Parmigiano, finished with crispy prosciutto and aged balsamic. It’s salty, sweet, crunchy, and impossible to stop eating.

Drinks flow freely, from Carla’s Cranberry Ginger Fizz mocktail to Michael’s smoked-maple Old Fashioned, and Clinton’s glitter-rimmed Greyhound makes its sparkly debut. Michael also delivers a Cleveland-approved upgrade on pigs in a blanket using smoky kielbasa and puff pastry — proof that people don’t want fancy, they want pigs.

Between bites, the crew plays Chew It or Screw It, dragging air fryers, New Year’s resolutions, reality cooking competitions, and caviar-on-everything straight into the group chat of truth. The episode wraps with fan mail, quick-lunch confessions, and a Frontgate fan giveaway that feels appropriately indulgent for the end of the year.

Bottom line: this episode is loud, nostalgic, snack-heavy, and exactly how you should ring in the new year.

Carla Hall delivers the ultimate Christmas morning cinnamon rolls: soft, sticky, make-ahead perfection with cream cheese glaze and orange zest. Clinton Kelly paints the coziest holiday picture imaginable… before fully melting down on camera. Michael Symon tries (and fails) to keep things on track while Clinton apologizes directly to Baby Jesus.

Along the way, the trio dives into Christmas traditions, controlled vs. chaotic gift opening styles, favorite holiday albums, bagels vs. cinnamon raisin heresies, and the power of food as love language. There’s fan mail, holiday nostalgia, a Frontgate giveaway, and one of the most unhinged endings in Chewed Up history.

This episode is warm, funny, messy, and exactly what Christmas morning should feel like.

The conversation dives into Feast of the Seven Fishes lore, growing up Italian-American, learning to cook on early Food Network, and why certain dishes are reserved for exactly one night a year. Rocco walks the crew through his family’s iconic blue crab pasta — a slow-simmered, shell-infused sauce that delivers deep ocean flavor without chunks of seafood in sight.

Along the way, the group debates kitchen gadgets that should disappear forever, breaks down holiday hosting nightmares, plays Chew It or Screw It, and shares why Christmas Eve was always the real party. The episode ends with a stunning, old-world fruit and nut table runner — proof that the table itself can be part of the tradition.

This is not weeknight food. This is memory-making food.

Inspired by Don Angie in New York City but rooted firmly in Clinton’s Italian-American upbringing, this lasagna features slow-cooked bolognese, creamy béchamel, fresh pasta sheets, mozzarella, Parmigiano-Reggiano, and a simple butter-onion tomato sauce based on Marcella Hazan’s iconic method. Everything is layered, rolled, sliced, and baked into individual spirals that deliver perfect balance in every bite.

Along the way, Clinton, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon dig into why lasagna is reserved for the people you actually love, the cultural difference between baked ziti and holiday lasagna, and why some dishes are meant to take time. There’s also plenty of side conversation — holiday traditions worth keeping (and retiring), the best sandwiches they’ve ever eaten, ugly sweater debates, and a reminder not to be a “DRIP” at holiday parties.

The result? A deeply satisfying dish, a fully redeemed Clinton, and one of the coziest episodes of Chewed Up yet.

Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon dive headfirst into one of the most dangerous holiday traditions known to humankind: trading cookies. Fans submitted recipes, the hosts picked their favorites, and each brought a deeply personal cookie to the table—Michael’s nostalgic pignoli cookies, Carla’s soft-and-chewy lemon ginger crinkle cookies, and Clinton’s classic chocolate-dipped butter cookies.

What follows is a masterclass in why live cooking plus cold temperatures plus piping bags equals chaos. Clinton battles frozen dough, frozen eggs, and his own sanity. Carla calmly explains technique while finishing cookies like a professional. Michael thrives in the disorder, introduces an on-the-fly Christmas Cookie edition of Chew It or Screw It, and watches Clinton unravel in real time.

Along the way, the trio debates overrated Christmas movies, controversial cookie opinions, internet comments that should’ve stayed in drafts, and why cookie swaps are emotionally risky. The episode ends with a massive Goldbelly fan giveaway, proving that even when everything goes sideways, Chewed Up still delivers.

Holiday spirit: present.

Execution: questionable.

Entertainment value: extremely high.

Michael walks Clinton and Carla through his signature method — seasoning the rib a day ahead, removing the bones to use as the roasting rack, layering garlic, thyme, and rosemary into an “aromatic bed,” and choosing between a slow roast followed by a blast of heat, or a classic high-temp roast. There’s a MasterClass-level breakdown on thermometers, fat rendering, resting times, and why Prime Rib should not be served “still mooing.”

Then comes the sauce segment — Clinton and Carla are downright feral over Michael’s horseradish sauce, and the trio devolves into a debate about sauerkraut, gut health, and “background funk.” Michael builds a glossy Pop Mustard Jus, balancing beef stock, mustard seeds, butter, and balsamic for a tangy, rich finish that the hosts cannot stop spooning over everything.

The conversation veers through holiday dining stress, French dip nostalgia, waiter PTSD, glitter-packed Christmas cards, and Clinton’s theory that everyone should work in restaurants before allowed into society. Carla tries to reset the room with numerology (“It’s a nine year — shed your emotional skin!”), and Michael refuses to do math.

The episode wraps with a double fan giveaway — two customized Frontgate aprons — and one very messy cutting board full of prime rib bones that Michael absolutely does not plan to share.

As Clinton stretches store-bought pizza dough (frozen, defrosted, zero shame), the crew spirals into flashbacks: Clinton burning himself with glue guns, Michael’s Midwestern “pizza bread” heritage, and Carla’s traumatic relationship with molten pizza rolls. They layer provolone, salami, pepperoni, mozzarella, and oregano before rolling the whole thing into a log and dropping it — curveball — into a Bundt pan to bake into a holiday wreath.

Rossi the dog tries to steal salami. Michael insists Stromboli should be eaten naked (no marinara). Carla double-dips without remorse. Clinton throws basil at the finished wreath and calls it “decoration.” It works.

After slicing into the golden, glossy Stromboli, they crack open Señorita’s lime–jalapeño THC margarita for a mid-episode holiday buzz discussion: aging, hangovers, kids at Christmas, avoiding phones, surviving New York City, and why Michael once peeled grapes for a month as part of “chef hazing.”

The episode wraps with a Frontgate “Chef Symon Ice Bucket” Giveaway + $100 Señorita gift card, fan mail, and a reminder that Clinton is — officially — the Stromboli King of Long Island.

As the dip slowly comes together, Michael fries potatoes, shaves carrots, toasts pita over the burner, and turns mortadella into shockingly good “meat chips.” Fan questions roll in mid-chaos, covering flat cookies, dishwasher rules, and why mortadella isn’t just fancy bologna.

Against all odds, the dip works—and it’s delicious. The Caraway giveaway winner is announced, and Michael plates a full holiday appetizer board pulled entirely from a Fan’s Fridge. Total chaos. Total Chewed Up.

While Carla reduces cranberries with vinegar, honey, and orange zest (with the occasional “boom”), Michael reminisces about Thanksgiving chaos, football traditions, and his deeply emotional relationship with stuffing and corn pudding. Clinton shares his mantra for the holiday: “As long as the gravy is hot, everything's fine.” The trio swap their favorite sides, least favorite sides (box potatoes get dragged), and the kitchen-buddy debate escalates into a full-blown philosophical divide.

Fan Mail brings questions about measuring cups vs. scoops, how to toast nuts without burning them (Carla: “Microwave.” Michael: “Absolutely not.”), and Thanksgiving prep tricks. Clinton also tells a Martha Stewart story so on-brand it practically spritzes linen spray.

Carla pan-sears the turkey cutlets, builds a sage brown butter that has Michael swooning, and finishes the dish like she’s plating at a Michelin-starred restaurant. The hosts dive in, declare it perfect, discuss gout for an unreasonably long time, and pull the episode giveaway winner: a Caraway Cutting Board.

They wrap with heartfelt thanks, reminding everyone that whether you’re cooking for two or twelve, the point of Thanksgiving is the people… and the sides.

What follows is peak Chewed Up energy: Carla crunches croutons into the mic until Clinton gets strangely excited, Michael goes on a tirade about why restaurants should toss salads for you, and the trio accidentally rename Thanksgiving greens forever. They also drop hard-earned Thanksgiving prep wisdom — thawing your turkey on time, making stock early, mapping out your oven like a battlefield, and why brining is basically a trap if you want good gravy.

The episode finishes with their Monday giveaway: The Frontgate Stay-Chill Bowl from Michael Symon’s Collection, pulled straight from the set and heading to one lucky fan. It’s loud, it’s unhinged, it’s practical, and somehow yes — it’s still about salad.

The crew dives deep into muffin science, the importance of cake flour, sour cream, and the extremely controversial word moist, all while Danielle drops tip after tip (including why oven temperature shock therapy creates a perfect dome). The episode goes gloriously off-track as Clinton and Danielle reminisce about Long Island culture, Michael reveals a crippling cookie addiction, and Carla unsuccessfully attempts a Long Island accent.

They also play a chaotic round of Chew It or Screw It, debate canned versus homemade cranberry sauce, argue pie vs. cake, and end up deep in Thanksgiving hosting dilemmas. The group answers fan questions, shares the horrors of cursed Jell-O salads, and swaps stories about reheating turkey without destroying it.

And in true Chewed Up fashion, the episode ends with laughs, crumbs everywhere, a Wicked Part 2 tangent, and a massive giveaway: a $75 Hungry Gnome Gift Card. It’s carbs, comedy, and pure pre-holiday mania.

What follows is a masterclass in improvisation and ratio-based cooking. Michael browns chicken thighs in bacon fat, busts up Italian sausage for a quick sauce, throws in sweet and spicy peppers, splashes in water to lift the fond, and finishes with tomato sauce, butter, basil, and a little fish sauce for umami. It’s fast, deeply flavorful, and exactly the kind of dish you make when Thanksgiving collapses in real time.

Along the way, they tackle posture issues, bad luck superstitions, restless legs, tattoo meanings, Browns trauma, the psychology of reframing, and why some people should absolutely not stretch their shirts from Season One. Carla and Clinton heckle, encourage, and philosophize in equal measure — and yes, Clinton sings “Brandy” at the end because Denise from New Jersey demanded it.

The episode ends with a generous Fan Giveaway from Carla: her cookbook, her nesting baking pans, and her okra-flower measuring cups. Chaos, comfort, therapy, and a skillet dinner that actually slaps.

Chadwick walks through building the dish from scratch: a silky béchamel, Gruyère cheese, French-cut green beans, and the move that takes this dish from retro to remarkable—French Onion Drop Biscuits baked on top. Along the way, the crew dives into the surprisingly emotional backstory of green bean casserole, mashed potato debates, Campbell’s Soup nostalgia, and a Meta AI fiasco that falsely announced Michael’s divorce.

The episode ends with a bubbling, golden casserole that stops everyone mid-sentence, a fan giveaway reveal featuring a Caraway cast-iron duo plus Chadwick’s e-book and T-shirt, and a reminder that sometimes the most comforting dish is the one reinvented with heart.

It’s classic Carla: a little Southern soul, a little improv, and a lot of heart. She whips cottage cheese into a smooth custard with eggs, oat milk, maple syrup, and cinnamon for a high-protein French toast base, then tops it with fresh berries tossed in reduced lemonade syrup. Michael and Clinton can’t resist heckling (and taste-testing), especially as Clinton tells a childhood story involving blackberries and an apology to “Laura Stratton.”

Between the laughter, the blending, and the slow-mo whipped cream finale, the trio closes out Fan Fridge Week with warmth, wit, and a reminder that even leftovers can become something special. The result: a dish that tastes like banana bread pudding’s classier cousin — and the perfect sweet ending to a wild week.

Michael takes the challenge head-on, transforming Pat’s fridge into a Mediterranean feast — complete with crispy-skin salmon, lemon egg sauce (avgolemono-style), and a feta–avocado–cucumber salad kissed with curry paste and olives. While he cooks, Carla offers her “Chef MacGyver” commentary, Clinton warns against ER-level avocado injuries, and everyone weighs in on fridge organization, panic meals, and how to save face when the salmon skin sticks.

The dish ends up a knockout: buttery, lemony, bright, and fresh. It’s proof that with a little skill (and maybe a few Greek instincts), you can turn a random fan’s fridge into a showstopper meal — and a perfectly cooked salmon that even Clinton admits is “better than expected.”
