Iron Chef America

I'm really digging Food Network's new Iron Chef America series. It's just a lot of fun to watch, and at a more accessible time than the original Iron Chef (9pm versus 11pm).

I'm digging it, too. Alton Brown is a great commentator. And it's much better than when they used to have an Iron Chef America with William Shatner.

I did finally have to lookup and see what "Foie Gras" was, as it was mentioned the other night. The stuff's expensive, that's for sure (about $50/pound).

Mmmmmm... foie gras...

Yeah, I was trying to remember something about William Shatner hosting Iron Chef. I finally figured out it was on the "Iron Chef USA" program on some other network.

Shanter wasn't on Food Network? Shows what I know....

Personally, I'd like to see a prime-time chef like Emeril go up against Bobby Flay and see how he holds up.

Nope apparently it was--go figure--UPN that "Iron Chef USA" with Shatner was on.

I think Emeril would hold his own. I don't know about some of the other celebrities on Food Network though.
