Think You Can Do Better? Grilling Fans Needed for 'Dear FN'

Yikes! After all the harsh feelings over yesterday's post about Next Food Network Star, maybe all you out there thinking you would be so much better will be interested in this:

Casting: Grilling Fans can be on Dear Food Network!

Love to watch the Food Network but can't cook as well as your favorite star? Now's your chance to have your Grilling question answered, possibly even in-person! Inspired by letters from fans, Dear Food Network features top chefs answering your cooking concerns, problems and challenges.

(I'm thinking this probably means Bobby Flay, but Giada's been known to bring out the grill pan from time to time. Maybe she'll show up?)


Have a question about global grilling (tandoori, Italian, Korean), improving an All-American dishes (hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken), seafood, or how to make a tasty dessert on the grill? Our Food Network stars are here to help improve your recipes and grilling skills!

We're looking for fun, creative 20-second videos (DVD or MiniDV) to incorporate into the show. BUT FIRST-For video guidelines please send and email to foodnetworkseries@gmail.com with your stats (name, age, city/state, living situation, contact info) plus a recent photo, a little about yourself, and your cooking questions.

Does your chicken always come out burnt, maybe you're a baker who wants to take it to the backyard or perhaps you want to learn how to make ribs that will wow your whole family?

The best questions/videos will be used on the show and some people will get to have their question answered in person by his or her favorite chef! Please send your DVD or MiniDV to:

Att: Dear Food Network
110 Leroy Street

  1. Anything but another challange is OK with me. They all use grill pans but I only see Bobby and Ina actually grilling outdoors (and most recently Pat Neely).

  2. Man, does Bobby ever look like he wants to give Giada the high hard one in that photo.

    I don't think Giada would be too much of a tiger in bed though. Bobby might want to keep hunting elsewhere in the FN lineup.

    I think Ingrid Hoffman would fit the bill. What do y'all think ?

  3. I think if we're going to bash the Network for being too personality-driven and not enough instruction-centric, we'd be hypocritical if we speculated on which FN star is or isn't good in bed. Not to mention that it's pretty crude.

  4. I'd nail 'em both.

  7. Personally I would do both Rachael and Giada- alone or together and if Flay was nice he could watch... I mean- Rachael come to Mama and leave that dumpy ass husband of yours for some real love... Hey I can dream, can't I? Rach is Smokin' Beautiful!

  8. Hang on.I thought this was about Giada and Ingrid. How did Rachael get in on this ?

    I think Flay would be up for watching and yeah I agree, she needs some real loving from a man over 5'3" tall. She can rub all the EVOO in the world over me.

    I see Ingrid and Me going at in on a secluded tropical beach down in Key West sipping Margaritas.

  9. Hi food lovers- off topic but I went on line to Fox news and they have a story about food /cooks/etc in the white house and a hint what might be in store for the new first family and their faves.

  10. Rach = nice booty

  11. 10:44/5:00 I'm an international man of stupidity and sophomoric sexual innuendo. Yeah baby, yeah !

    ReplyDelete
  12. Who's Ingrid?

    ReplyDelete
  13. I'm a straight man and would happily do both of them at the same time.

  14. Rach got into it because- DUH! She is so freaking hot and so totally adorable. She deserves so much better than John. He looks like a creepy guy.
    Rach I will love you forever...

  15. did anyone see emeril's show with his little boy on it??
    i can't stand emeril but his little kid was amazing!!! so cute and so smart!!

    i wouldn't do emeril for all the tea i china btw.....

  16. Giada is the hottest, she has that amazing rack, but i wouldn't kick Rachel out of bed for eating crackers. And with that new voice of hers... MMMmmmMMMm...
    If Bobbys wife was allowed in, he could watch, but she needs a gag, since she sounds like a man.

    If I had enough beer, Sandra Lee would be nice.

    That cheeleader on TNFNWS looked like she could have some fun. But the nasty hag with the weird hair? Nasty.

  17. LOL Anon 3:43 --- Should be interesting to hear Rachael's new voice. Did you see her segment on The RR show today at the throat doc??? Poor Rach- that exam did not look fun--- but I do respect her for letting her fans know the truth- being a fan of her's I was rather upset when I read she had throat cancer- Get Well Soon Rach and do what Dr Gwen asks and be quiet for 2 weeks! ** muah Rach **

  18. Alex Arse is probably little Jared buddy. Yeah Jared yeah.

    Good to see the straight men making their feelings known too.

  19. The Flays wife is hot but GIADA is SMOKIN'

  20. Royght, I'm a strictly mainly main! Don't like me no uphill gardeners.

  21. Jake, stop letting Jared play on your computor.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Jacob (it's not "Jake"): Stop letting Alec post anonymously on your blog. He should be forced to own his inanity.

  23. What about Michael Chiarello? He's the hottest by far of the celebrity chefs. He's not only gorgeous, but can actually cook and appears so down to earth on his shows. Sprinkle me with gray salt...

    ReplyDelete
  24. Do you think Michael might be just a bit gay?

    ReplyDelete
  25. Dear Anonymous 1:56am, well, perhaps at times. Michael's seemed to tone down some of that in recent shows that I've seen. I'm not sure about that one at all. I certainly don't know him personally. I've read all the past blogs on the issue, including the "on the down low" streams. The point that he could have certainly come out in the forgiving area of San Fran if he was is a valid one. So, my answer is maybe, but he's still gorgeous.

  26. Cmon Jared. Cut Alec some slack. I think you are jealous of some of his sage and witty observations.

    You are jealous little fella aren't yeah ?

    ReplyDelete
  27. I saw emeril's show with his young son EJ on it. He was adorable and hummed when he cooked just like Emeril.
