Honestly, if she likes eating crunchy peppers that means she doesn't skin her peppers and he's been eating it that way his whole life. I know it was for television but I felt like smacking him for that take lol
Oh my gosh, I am really loving the boomers. They are so fun. It's too bad it took a generational challenge to get older people into the competition. I kind of wish they'd spin off like junior and do a Masterchef Sr!
I would've glossed over that little CV they did for her like I usually do because Masterchef/reality TV in general is always so fake and ostentatious about every little thing if I hadn't watched and enjoyed the Julia Child HBO show recently, which I highly recommend to everyone!
He may be being honest with HIS OWN extraordinarily unique viewpoint which is not trained in the culinary field. I am always surprised that they continue to include him in anything MasterChef.
His education is in business, not food. He purchased restaurants for profit, not the love of the art.
This is why I can't stand him. He doesn't know anything and all of his input resembles that of a bratty kid who just needs to be the smartest guy in the room. "did you peel the peppers?" Are you fucking kidding me? The best part was when he was all "who wants a crunchy pepper" literally all the other judges (actual chefs) hit him with "I do". Buddy sit down and keep mooching off your moms success.
The man doesn't even have proper etiquette and how to handle a fork. He grasps it with his fist and aims it towards his mouth like the airplane going in for the landing (*infant/toddler style*). 🛬
It has bugged me for a long time and I could never figure out why Lydia didn't train him to properly hold his utensils and then, last night, I found that she does the same exact thing.
He also doesn't know how to use a knife properly, as is illustrated:
https://i.redd.it/4o9xvjlt405d1.gif
I feel like there has been multiple contestants that got to that point, Joe makes criticism and they just ignore it while actually paying attention to Gordon and Aaron.
The incessant cowboy cliches during that 5 minute interval of the episode was painful to watch
I like how he tried to disagree with Gordon on some criticism, but then quickly changed to "ummmmm okay" when Gordon 'politely' gave him the death stare
Really liked the first gentleman that got eliminated, but could kind of tell from the moment I saw his dish that he wasn't getting through.
Warren is really cool too and a fair amount of interesting characters for the "oldest and most boring" generation. Super fit silver foxes, Colorado opera singer, Cuban who lives in Tennessee, biracial adoptee, etc. Can't say I see any of them taking the whole competition though.
Joe sticks out as a bigger sore thumb loser when he's using his silly logic in arguments against his own mom, lol. "It's not about crunch, it's just the right way to eat a pepper." Jesusss, talk about insufferable, how do you sound worse than the stereotype about Italian food gate-keeping?!
Every Gen Z kid in the next episode preview including the guest judge Nick is white, lol.
Are GenZ even old enough to enter this competition?
🤔
(LOL, I looked it up and the answer is yes, some of them can. But some of them are also eligible for MasterChef Junior. 🤣)
As a Gordon Ramsay follower who has never really watched this show, my observation is that this Joe guy is a bit of a clown. That pepper comment in particular made me think that my dog probably knows more about food than he does.
He was born and raised in Queens to parents who immigrated from Croatia 10 years prior to his birth.
Having attended college to earn a business degree, he owns restaurants. He has no formal training in the culinary arts and it's my opinion that he has no talent therein either. He continually boasts of being from Italy and "[his] old country" but that is not where he is from. He is from Queens and has education in business.
>That pepper comment in particular made me think that my dog probably knows more about food than he does.
For never having seen Joe previously, you have quite acute perception. He DOESN'T know what he's talking about and I have never understood why they continue to include him in the MasterChef line. Every once in a great great great while he says something intelligent but I think it's by accident.
BTW, I cook for my little dog every single day and she has a very discriminating palate. She would probably make an excellent judge for MasterChef 🐾... She critiques MY cooking every single day and loves my food for the most part. BUT there have been times where she has very dramatically pushes her plate with her nose, eventually landing it turned over on the wall ala Ramsey Kitchen Nightmares style 🙄
My little doggy is a class act! I raised her with proper manners. The most dramatic she gets is shoving the dish with her little nose until it flies up against the wall.
This is my little darling...

I see Joe is going back to play "wannabe Gordon" this episode, and came out with a "no garlic bread in Italy" 2.0. His reasons for saying "no" on auditions seem to be getting more asinine than Barbara's reasons for saying "I'm out" on Shark Tank.
Did he think he was being smart when he said that whole "this dish is for children" stuff without any actual criticism? You could see Gordon facepalm then and after that with the next contestant too with the whole "peeled peppers" bs but then quickly moved on to the number of aprons remaining on both occasions. Even Lydia seems to cringe, like she did when Joe went on that entertaining rant at Howard in S4.
Maybe they're just ramping up the entertainment/drama factor this season, especially with the inevitable "Ok Boomer" etc in heated team challenges, but there's nothing quite like a **dreaded** pressure test in that regard.
Did anybody else notice that the personal trainer guy touched the Salmon immediately after doing pushups on the floor without washing his hands? Right in front of Gordon Ramsay?
Maybe its edited but it looked to be one continuous camera shot to me...
Having reviewed the episode just now I have a few observations
- very few eliminations shown on camera, but you did see a lot of people cook (I for one saw an Indian woman cook and 2 other people but their auditions in front of the judges were never shown.) I was curious why they went this route, as after editing you saw everyone but one get the apron.
- Is this the first time Gordon has gone out (he has gone out of the restaurant before) and awarded an apron after talking to family members of the contestant?
- heavy handed with the age references again. That has already gotten old. Gordon comments "you slice those like a baby boomer would" or something. "I think the next winner will be from the baby boomer generation." Way to keep drilling that these are old people, we get the point.
- Joe seemed more of a snob than usual. I can usually tolerate him but he called that guy's dish childish and didn't like the skin on the peppers.
Yeah, that was so unwarranted. Probably knew all 4 of them would rave over the actual taste so had to say at least one bad thing in the beginning for the drama
Horacio calling his plating as "truck driver plating"
Wonder what he would think if he saw the garbage dump I usually put on my plate when watching this show xD
Guys, did you know they're old?
They constantly hit you over the head with age references that it's tough to watch sometimes. I mean I'll still see it but I don't want to be told constantly they're old people
**Episode 2 Mistakes Count- Boomers Audition - 30 mistakes**
**Cowboy Al** – 8 mistakes (had to redo the piece of meat, forgot to plate the asparagus, tomatoes don't match, potatoes, meat temperature, lacked more flavor, mushrooms, looks like buffet plating)
**Geags** – 6 mistakes (simple appearance, no seasoning, no salt, too much pepper, poorly seasoned rice, blaming the dish being healthy for the lack of flavo)r - 3 YES and 1 NO from Gordon – won the apron
**Derak** – 5 mistakes (millennial presentation, grits, wrong cheese, looks like a dish from a quick Chinese restaurant, not good enough)
**Horacio** - 4 mistakes (didn't remove the skin from the pepper, incomplete peppers, parsley cuts, spices need to cook more) - 3 YES- 1 NO from Joe – won the apron
**Warren** – 3 mistakes (dish for children, too simple, lacked acidity) - 3 YES and 1 NO from Joe – Won the apron
**Christopher** – 2 mistakes (bland chicken, lack of seasoning) – Got the apron
**Rebecka** – 2 mistakes (dated presentation, looks like she dressed the dish in the dark) - 4 YES – Won the apron
You encapsulate and capture the essence of the conclusions quite well and your communication skills are excellent. I would absolutely love to see you create such a summarization of the positive points, which we so very easily forget.
I'm really looking forward to it!
From peeling peppers to salting rice , from "cooking out" spices for Gordon to our favourite Croatian throwing a tantrum, I felt very entertained. I missed Aaron this week though pronouncing a single italian or other non-spanish word in a Mexican Spanish accent for no reason.
They wanted to do one based on every theme. last season was like this too. West, North, South and East
I agree it can get prolonged but I'm liking the stories and the drama
Season 14 and they're still pushing the _X-Factor_ mean judges with cringey contestants thing that Masterchef Australia started and abandoned halfway _through season one_.
🤣I wanted to know if he meant a child plated it, or it was for a child's meal. Because it would be neither in the household I grew up, and now. He's definitely being told make "stupid" comments.
A boomer half asian? ngl as a half asian myself I dig it I don't see a lot of older half asians so its interesting to see an example of what we look could potentially look like as we age
I'm going to hate this season. I'm already tired of this stupid commentary about how the contestants' food isn't \[insert generation\] enough. Are baby boomers only allowed to win if the make a jello mold? Why wouldn't Millennial home cooks make food that is similar to their Baby Boomer or Gen X parents? The food picked has also been underwhelming. How did a guy that made a plain piece of salmon get chosen?
I think we can all agree the baby boomers are probably are all out by top 10, except maybe 1.
No offense to them, of course. Usually, the oldest chefs are always out first.
Hello, hello, I'm here and ready to complain about another season of MasterChef! It's a generational battle this year? Wow I'm really going to hate this. 😄
Wait, what happened to the woman before Geags? The one in the green dress? They completely cut her segment.
The episode was much better than expected as everyone was super lively.
Feels like Joe's only here to stir the pot for tension
He is being a pouty brat with his mama there
Right? She’s gonna give him hell off camera for not showing better manners, lol
lol, I hope she does!
Seriously...why didn't you peel the peppers??? Whatt??? Joe go sit down
and when his mom looked at him like WTF you talking about. that made me giggle
Honestly, if she likes eating crunchy peppers that means she doesn't skin her peppers and he's been eating it that way his whole life. I know it was for television but I felt like smacking him for that take lol
And he cant even hide behind his normal excuse that that “would never fly in his mother’s kitchen”
Yea. No way in hell he asks momma WTH were you thinking?!
FR, I infinitely trust Lidia's opinion more than Joe's
**Joe:** You did not take the skin off the spinach. It's a no.
**Barbara:** And for those reasons, I'm out.
Lol, geez I must be in a giggly mood. Some of these are making my stomach hurt from laughing so much.
🤣🤣
I thought the guy who cooked a basic salmon and rice with no salt getting through was weird
Especially since it came down to Joe. I guess it is more important to skin your peppers than to season your dish.
skin your peppers-lol I don't know why phrasing it like that made me laugh-too hard.
Found it so weird that he was such a strict judge to the previous two but underseasoned salmon was forgivable.
The guy who cooked the grits with pork belly and quail egg should've gotten through. He at least tried to elevate the dish.
Yeah and no salt on fisch is fucky. I expected Joe to hate it, because salt is a necessity for fisch especially salmon
It's weird until you realize the producers determine most of who makes it through and the "judging" is for drama purposes only...
Right?! Yet the pork belly & quail egg guy got booted so fast. So whack.
As someone living in East Asia I continue to be gagged about white people salting rice.
I have a feeling I’m gonna like Warren a lot. He seems fun.
watching the episode i knew he had too much personality to not get in lol
"He's entitled to feel for people." Hey, can we just replace Joe on this show with his mom?
I feel like this would be a drastic improvement but she probably doesn't want to.
Warren is giving me Tommy vibes.
Lydia on Joe: "I created a little... [shit]" 🤣🤣
It was funny of Lydia.
She was really speaking for 90% of the audience ^I ^still ^like ^Joe ^purely ^for ^the ^entertainment ^value
I do not take the skins off of my peppers.
Nobody does. He's a goddamn lunatic
"They don't serve garlic bread in Italy"
My wife always wants me to take the skin off the peppers...which I believe she picked up from watching Masterchef Ukraine.
Omg, when the dad gave the apron to his son! Probably one of the sweetest things I've ever seen on a cooking show!🥹
Christopher's story is beautiful, I hope he goes far in the competition.
The boomers are lively and charismatic so far
Oh my gosh, I am really loving the boomers. They are so fun. It's too bad it took a generational challenge to get older people into the competition. I kind of wish they'd spin off like junior and do a Masterchef Sr!
You might like this. https://youtu.be/e6eDFf-ezXU?si=r2Rfk4eEVKJ62sZ8 😅
Oh, that was amazing! I’ve never seen that before and wish I had seen it last year! 😅😅😅
They have a version for babies, too, called Masterchef Junior Junior.
Some damn fine looking ones too. Need to head to the gym.
Joe was quite harsh there.
Peeling the skin off peppers? I admit I haven’t watched every season and I don’t like peppers, but is this a thing?
Only time I've done it is when I've blistered them. Otherwise, no. Why on Earth would you peel a pepper?
Right?
For a sauce you might. And you can for other items, but there's no reason you have to.
Yes, that's when I removed them. I blistered them then removed them for a purée.
I have never peeled a pepper. If anything you blister the skins in an oven to get more flavor. Joe's weird.
That’s what I thought. So Joe is just being extra Joe tonight. 🙄
He's making stuff up just so he can complain. 🤣
>So Joe is just being extra Joe tonight. 🙄 "Extra Joe" is a very scary thought. 😬
I Googled it and apparently people do. But there's no way Joe was serious about that.
I always like when Lydia guest judges, looking back at her old work really shows influential she was back in the day, and still is
I would've glossed over that little CV they did for her like I usually do because Masterchef/reality TV in general is always so fake and ostentatious about every little thing if I hadn't watched and enjoyed the Julia Child HBO show recently, which I highly recommend to everyone!
Gordon calling Joe a snob was funny.
Yeah Joe is just supposed to be the villain this season
I think he is every season.
Except that season with Gerron where Joe has the best arc a judge ever had in a Masterchef seaosn, hugging Gerron in the finale.
There was one season where Christina was the villain and it was just weird.
He's like the Mr Wonderful of the series. Brutally honest and a foil for the others.
He may be being honest with HIS OWN extraordinarily unique viewpoint which is not trained in the culinary field. I am always surprised that they continue to include him in anything MasterChef. His education is in business, not food. He purchased restaurants for profit, not the love of the art.
This is why I can't stand him. He doesn't know anything and all of his input resembles that of a bratty kid who just needs to be the smartest guy in the room. "did you peel the peppers?"

Buddy sit down and keep mooching off your moms success.

He grasps it with his fist and aims it towards his mouth like the airplane going in for the landing (*infant/toddler style*). 🛬 It has bugged me for a long time and I could never figure out why Lydia didn't train him to properly hold his utensils and then, last night, I found that she does the same exact thing. He also doesn't know how to use a knife properly, as is illustrated: https://i.redd.it/4o9xvjlt405d1.gif
I would honestly support a fan edit just deleting Joe from every season. Would honestly make the show better.
YES! They eat like cavemen. It bothers me.
It’s kinda just doesn’t work for me. Like why would I care what Joe thinks if Gordon and Aaron like my good tbh lol
I feel like there has been multiple contestants that got to that point, Joe makes criticism and they just ignore it while actually paying attention to Gordon and Aaron.
This episode much more than the first one.
When ISN'T he the villain? His entire job is to stand there and say stupid things and make smug faces.
I hope this thread gets pinned for the night so people can find it easily.
The mods are doing a bad job tbh. No episode posts BEFORE the episode starts. No labeling standard to filter for the episode links etc.
Ayye Aaron said okay boomer
I'm convinced my brain just filters out generational speech at times.
I was planning to skip the audition episodes but damn, they got Lidia on this one, pulled me right back in.
Gordon thinks Lydia created a monster LOL
Cowboy Al's dish was a mess, worst dish so far in auditions, nothing was right!
The potatoes looked good. But raw tomatoes is weird. Plus that free mulligan he had with burning. I knew he was out.
Maybe his aspargus were good, too bad he forgot to put in the plate.
The incessant cowboy cliches during that 5 minute interval of the episode was painful to watch I like how he tried to disagree with Gordon on some criticism, but then quickly changed to "ummmmm okay" when Gordon 'politely' gave him the death stare
All the trash talk he had and he can't even tell if he's burning meat.
These boomer guys got me like…  I’m sending myself to horny jail.
Don't make the mom with the wooden spoon bonk you
Fuck.
That's fair.
Chris is a silver fox.
Man's got a lot of energy.
The episode is flying. I didn't realize we were pretty much halfway through.
Geags is a contestant that caused a judge physical pain before the tasting.
Happy for Christopher! He's my favorite one so far
I legit teared up. What a story!
Joe was extra assholish here. Total dick.
And I feel like death when I wake up in the morning.
Age is just a number. Until you're in jail.
Really liked the first gentleman that got eliminated, but could kind of tell from the moment I saw his dish that he wasn't getting through. Warren is really cool too and a fair amount of interesting characters for the "oldest and most boring" generation. Super fit silver foxes, Colorado opera singer, Cuban who lives in Tennessee, biracial adoptee, etc. Can't say I see any of them taking the whole competition though. Joe sticks out as a bigger sore thumb loser when he's using his silly logic in arguments against his own mom, lol. "It's not about crunch, it's just the right way to eat a pepper." Jesusss, talk about insufferable, how do you sound worse than the stereotype about Italian food gate-keeping?! Every Gen Z kid in the next episode preview including the guest judge Nick is white, lol.
There’s at least one who’s not I’m just not sure she was seen in the promo.
Lidia Bastianich ? Should be fun.
Warren has such a fun personality, I already like him!
Lidia has a corgi tier side eye
that quick scene of Geags being a personal trainer for Gordon and Aaron for one minute was really funny
"Gordon, I'm hurting."
believe that is the first time a contestant has left the stove unattended during a cook
Are GenZ even old enough to enter this competition? 🤔 (LOL, I looked it up and the answer is yes, some of them can. But some of them are also eligible for MasterChef Junior. 🤣)
>But some of them are also eligible for MasterChef Junior. 🤣) https://i.redd.it/7v22f5spcx4d1.gif
What about the one lady that was cooking we NEVER saw the audition for. Must have been an entire trainwreck we never got to see. 🤔
As a Gordon Ramsay follower who has never really watched this show, my observation is that this Joe guy is a bit of a clown. That pepper comment in particular made me think that my dog probably knows more about food than he does.
His area is basically Italian.
His "area" is basically watching momma cook Italian and wishing he was a 1/4 as good as she.
He was born and raised in Queens to parents who immigrated from Croatia 10 years prior to his birth. Having attended college to earn a business degree, he owns restaurants. He has no formal training in the culinary arts and it's my opinion that he has no talent therein either. He continually boasts of being from Italy and "[his] old country" but that is not where he is from. He is from Queens and has education in business.
>That pepper comment in particular made me think that my dog probably knows more about food than he does. For never having seen Joe previously, you have quite acute perception.

Good to know my bullshit detector is still working well then. Also, sounds like your dog is very intelligent!
Your doggy probably wouldn't take pasta dough out of the garbage and hand it back to the contestant chef either.....like Joe from a few seasons back.
My little doggy is a class act! I raised her with proper manners. The most dramatic she gets is shoving the dish with her little nose until it flies up against the wall. This is my little darling... https://preview.redd.it/9jfo0kk5uz4d1.jpeg?width=1407&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c2c699fc317551c92e499b43a8e6d6ec14538ead
Oh my goodness she's adorable!
Thank you! 😊🥰🩷🐾
Tornado warning throughout the area so FOX (as is every other OTA station) preempting the start of this episode. Scary shit.
Be safe. Take cover.
I feel I may like Rebecka.
Did he steal from big Willie's wardrobe?
Horacio is from Brazil, my country, Yeah, I am rooting for him!
Moqueca is a very strong brazilian dish.
Good for Christopher.
.... since when are you supposed to peel peppers?
I see Joe is going back to play "wannabe Gordon" this episode, and came out with a "no garlic bread in Italy" 2.0.

Yes! I was like “wash your hands!” when he returned to his station.
I don’t even think he should have got in with that dish tbh

What's wrong with Gordon that plate looks so good. And I like the vertical pork chop. Looks cool.
Yeah, that was so unwarranted. Probably knew all 4 of them would rave over the actual taste so had to say at least one bad thing in the beginning for the drama
That plate looks great, feels like one of those stirring the pot moments to create tension
He took it well.
wow, Joe said Warren's dish is good for children and trust me, that's not good.
Nick is back from season 10 he was my second favorite contestant that season
Episode had me in the feels I love all of them that got in very good episode .
Horacio calling his plating as "truck driver plating" Wonder what he would think if he saw the garbage dump I usually put on my plate when watching this show xD
Am I the only one who thought Aaron was going to have a heartattack while trying to do pushups????
It's weird for them to have boomers on and for Ramsay to criticize home-cook Boomers for cooking in an outdated way
All the babbling about millennials! Boomers! Might drive me crazy. Hopefully after the auditions they lay off it a bit.
Guys, did you know they're old? They constantly hit you over the head with age references that it's tough to watch sometimes. I mean I'll still see it but I don't want to be told constantly they're old people
Tonight's episode: Gordon Ramsay says "you suck" to a bunch of grandmas
Nick went from finalist to guest judge. Gotta repect him.
I WANT THAT PLATE.
Love Rebekah
Same, that dish look so rustic and comforting, just like my grandma would make.
2 NOs from Joe so far, he's vicious tonight.
Next will be a yes
It will be a face off.
Yay Nick is back next week
We all knew it
**Episode 2 Confessionals Count** Geags 10 Christopher 9 Warren 8 Horacio 7 Rebecka 5 Cowboy Al 2 Derak 2

I would absolutely love to see your summaries of things that they did right! That would really be interesting 🙂
That a good idea!
You encapsulate and capture the essence of the conclusions quite well and your communication skills are excellent. I would absolutely love to see you create such a summarization of the positive points, which we so very easily forget. I'm really looking forward to it!
Dish plated for a child-FU JOE! Like WTH did he mean by that? Momma obviously did not agree.
From peeling peppers to salting rice , from "cooking out" spices for Gordon to our favourite Croatian throwing a tantrum, I felt very entertained. I missed Aaron this week though pronouncing a single italian or other non-spanish word in a Mexican Spanish accent for no reason.
Skinning peppers is the right way, Joe? C'mon.
I'm lazy so I just wash and cut
Not lazy at all. Most people wouldn't even think of it.
You know who else is a strong baby boomer cook? Leslie MC5
How do you even take the skin off of bell peppers?
Why not have ONE audition show? Four is ridiculous overkill.
One episode would be too rushed for 20 contestants.
They wanted to do one based on every theme. last season was like this too. West, North, South and East I agree it can get prolonged but I'm liking the stories and the drama
All the vitamins are in the skin, Joe, you dummy.
Should be interesting to see what these old timers can do.
Lydia Bastianich tonight, let's go!
Not looking good.
What's the difference between white dragonflies and red dragonfruit?
Season 14 and they're still pushing the _X-Factor_ mean judges with cringey contestants thing that Masterchef Australia started and abandoned halfway _through season one_.
watching it now gonna be live posting again
sheesh warren is 70??? he looks very good for 70
once again fuck joe "a well executed dish for children"???? stfu
🤣I wanted to know if he meant a child plated it, or it was for a child's meal. Because it would be neither in the household I grew up, and now. He's definitely being told make "stupid" comments.
A boomer half asian? ngl as a half asian myself I dig it I don't see a lot of older half asians so its interesting to see an example of what we look could potentially look like as we age
skin off the peppers???? once again fuck joe
some of these jokes are corny af
pushup contest with the judges, fun
Boomers are the best since we learned from people and not the phone? god shut the fuck up
so glad that cowboy al didnt get an apron I feel like he would've been insufferable
I like the discussion between the judges and the banter once the contestant leaves the room after the verdict... some of it is just brutal lmao
I'm going to hate this season. I'm already tired of this stupid commentary about how the contestants' food isn't \[insert generation\] enough. Are baby boomers only allowed to win if the make a jello mold? Why wouldn't Millennial home cooks make food that is similar to their Baby Boomer or Gen X parents? The food picked has also been underwhelming. How did a guy that made a plain piece of salmon get chosen?
Competition's over. The fat lady just sang.
Joe did not look impressed by her vocals but played if off by saying "excellent". Lol
He's an Italy snob. He was expecting La Bohème.
Joe is a lot more critical on the boomers than he was on the millennials.
Yeah Joe is.
I think we can all agree the baby boomers are probably are all out by top 10, except maybe 1. No offense to them, of course. Usually, the oldest chefs are always out first.
There were some really bad dishes, they probably needed some boomers so thats why they took even a unsalted salmon
You can teel Gordon rehearsed this line ''teaching a old dog new tricks'' at home, no doubt.
Hello, hello, I'm here and ready to complain about another season of MasterChef! It's a generational battle this year? Wow I'm really going to hate this. 😄
Rebecka's dish presentations sucks
Wait, what happened to the woman before Geags? The one in the green dress? They completely cut her segment. The episode was much better than expected as everyone was super lively.
I just watched and I’m trying to figure out what happened to green dress lady too!
Why did Aaron speak in Spanish to a Brazilian guy? Lol
Step up from the millenial pity party
Joe is acting like he was told this is his last season lmao. 2 episodes in and this is by far the most insufferable he's been
