The Chef was on TV last Sturday and again showed him on Sunday. I couldn't believe a programme was made on him making a bacon butty. Incredible.

Ok he made his own ketchup but that would be it. That's all I saw - I switched off.

did it show him killing the pig?

RB was describing a bacon sarnie as his 'ultimate comfort food' six years ago:

To be fair to him though, the recipe he offered on the telly was for a sauce that could be used to accompany a bacon butty, rather than for a bacon butty, per se:

I'd be prepared to be, though, that fewer than 1% of his viewers would ever bother to actually make it!

not as bad as the recent nigella prog - she showed us how to butter toast!

Laughing ma leg aff

I saw it also but he seems a really nice man!

[Smowball]

How much do they actually pay these chefs for these programmes??

[jennyjoan]

Cleo we are not talking about the man. Just the kiddy food. Oh. Tres bien tres bien

I doubt there's a sliding tariff Smow, someone like Raymond Blanc could possibly set his own figure.

I see, are you saying that when asked what his ideal comfort food was he ought to have picked something else?
