Naw, didn't see it. Is it good?
No time to watch it, really. My DVR is at 95% capacity with other shows
I don't have time to watch. I was really thinking of all the grill and smoker aficionados on here, and hope some of you get a chance to tune in Sunday at 9pm if this appeals to your viewing pleasure. :]
I caught the first episode the other day. It was all right so far. They seem to be testing the pit masters' judgement more than anything. Once the pit masters made a certain decision about their dish whether it was what protein they were using or their plating choices, the judges sat there and critiqued their decisions before even trying their dishes. Then once they tried the dish they would be like, "See, I was right about this." I wish they would at least put in the extra effort to pretend like they were keeping an open mind. The concept is interesting but they seem to be focused more on reputations then the actual food itself.
