Chewed UP

We Made 3 Very Different Avocado Toasts

Today on Chewed Up, we take one of the most overhyped dishes out there and turn it into something way more fun: three different avocado toasts from three very different points of view. Michael builds his with herbs, citrus, olive oil, flaky salt, and chile. Clinton goes bright and throwback with grapefruit, red onion, honey, and poppy seeds. Carla keeps it simple and sharp with herbs and crispy shallots. It is part taste test, part argument, and part reminder that avocado toast is only boring if you make it boring.

We Tried 8 Salsas So You Don’t Have To

Today on Chewed Up, we put 8 different salsas head to head to find out which one is actually worth buying. Fresh, jarred, chunky, smooth, mild, hot. We taste them all blind and judge them on balance, texture, freshness, heat, and how well they actually work with chips.  Along the way, we find a few surprises, argue over spice levels, and narrow the whole bracket down to the salsas we would actually buy again.  Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon’s collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.com [https://frontgate.com/] FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.com [https://www.freshdirect.com/] Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ [https://www.simplealien.com/] Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ [https://tvboynyc.com/] About Chewed Up: Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.

Carla Hall Shows You How to Make Better Biscuits

Today on Chewed Up, Carla Hall breaks down the biscuit techniques that can actually make your biscuits better. From grated cold butter and smart flour handling to stacking the dough for layers and using a muffin tin for more uniform drop biscuits, this episode is all about the little changes that make a big difference. She also shows how the same exact dough can turn into two completely different biscuits depending on the method, proving that technique matters just as much as the recipe.

Clinton Kelly Makes Corn Dogs for the First Time

Today on Chewed Up, Clinton Kelly does something he almost never does: he makes a dish on camera without testing it first. The result? Homemade corn dogs that are crispy, airy, golden, and way better than they had any right to be on a first try.  Along the way, the crew talks fair food, roller coasters, frying tricks, what makes a good corn dog batter, and why keeping the oil at the right temperature is the whole game.  Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: Frontgate → Premium home, kitchen, and entertaining essentials — including Michael Symon’s collection featured on the show.https://frontgate.com [https://frontgate.com/] FreshDirect → Fresh groceries delivered straight to your door.https://www.freshdirect.com [https://www.freshdirect.com/] Produced by Simple Alien → https://www.simplealien.com/ [https://www.simplealien.com/] Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/ [https://tvboynyc.com/] About Chewed Up: Three lifestyle icons reunite with zero filter, strong opinions, and even stronger flavors.
