Welcome back to Alton
Brown’s International House of SabotageTM and this week,
we say hello to general confusion, as this is the Season
6 premiere in the midst of Season 5. We also say welcome
to Krystal, Frank, Cecil and Barrett, who get their seed
money of $25,000. On the first dish tonight, we have Chicken Caesar Salad. Barrett forgot the chicken and Krystal forgot parmesan cheese. Frank would like to make Barrett forget that his prep station is swapped out for a chariot prep station to spend the entire round in for $2,000, and Frank makes Cecil lose all his cutting material for $2,200. Then, mid round, Barrett makes Frank and Krystal face each other in a parmesan grate-off for $7,000. Frank wins, while Krystal has to wait five minutes. And no waiting from the hermetically sealed porch of Funk and Wagnall’s Mayonnaise Jar because here comes judge Simon Majundar. Decision time comes for Barrett, and no chicken means elimination, returning $18,000. Leading the way into the second round are Cecil and Krystal with their original $25,000 and then comes Frank with $20,800. Who wants shrimp along with that staple of southern-style breakfasts where we ask “Hominy grits can you eat?” Frank pays $8,000 to make Krystal prep and Cecil cook each other’s meals, and Krystal pays $5,100 to replace the shrimp of Frank’s with shrimp tails. Simon returns, tastes and eliminates Frank and his $12,800. The final two are Cecil with $25,000 still in his hands, and Krystal with $19,900. And the last meal is ice cream sandwiches, which will take 45 minutes. Krystal confiscates Cecil’s ingredients and replaces them with a sandwich tray for $10,200, and Cecil pays $500 to make Krystal make her ice cream in sandwich bags. So, Cecil has $24,500 at stake while Krystal has $10,700, so we will have a five-figure payday one way or another. And after Simon tastes the ice cream sandwiches, he picks the winner to be Krystal. Wednesday brings the final of Superstar Sabotage, with Eric Greenspan, Marcel Vigneron, Aarti Sequeria and Fabio Viviani in the $50,000 tax deduction winner-take-all challenge judged by Simon Majundar, and then it’s back to normalcy next Sunday. After that, I will need a few days off after all this blogging for you. To see this episode in its entirety, go to foodnetwork.com/cutthroatkitchen. |
