I want the Great British Bake Off to try making Southern US style biscuits and sausage gravy, because at this point I just want the world to burn.

what things do you want to see GBBO ruin, plurk
☆ 𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥 ☆
don't you put that out there

i'm already in a bad mood and i don't need to see someone ruining a comfort food of mine

[without looking up from my breakfast] beaver tails

really, any kind of fairground fried food actually
duck bastard
in my defense, I didn't put it out there, twitter did
duck bastard
Whydunit
considering how much I love watching Brits freak out over American food, particularly biscuits and gravy, id be interested in seeing how they been butcher it if they're being serious
Whydunit
I'm still crying over how they peeled an avocado like a potato
Guardian Bear J
Chicken. Pot. Pie. Proper southern style.
duck bastard
they what
Kira🌵
fried fair food, definitely

then again they probably have the same reaction to sweet iced tea so it's fair.
duck bastard
iirc, the Japanese (?) round was also a shitshow , but nothing quite as cursed as Mexican
ʙɪᴛᴄʜɪᴍᴡɪʟᴅ
we really do take our closeness to mexico and mexican cuisine for granted.
Dr. Yubsie
I think if they tried to make Nanaimo bars Canada might actually leave the Commonwealth
ʙɪᴛᴄʜɪᴍᴡɪʟᴅ
I mean 'British' is in the title, at best I think they can only do european dishes. if they do Italian, I think they would be on thin ice.

duck bastard
bitch how you gonna get the pit out
duck bastard
you gonna squash the meat you fucking idiot
Pixel
not gonna lie I wanna see them try to do authentic Quebec Poutine
Pixel
then say it's a Canadian dish and watch Quebec implode
joker
I mean they already butchered s'mores so
cassandra
they what
bbcakes
non-graham s'mores, with a layer of chocolate ganache, with a "marshmallow" meringue lightly blowtorched
bbcakes
this was a technical challenge, of course, because if your s'mores are messy or leaking out the side you've simply butchered an american classic
Haunted Boobs
Hilariously, some of the best biscuits and gravy I ever had was at this weird little all-day breakfast place way up in the desert mountains run by a couple from England.
Haunted Boobs
It was called The British Breakfast, but had no actual British food on the menu. Very confusing place.
duck bastard
oh, the s'mores thing was real? I thought that was a shitpost based off of the avocados
Corpse Sniffer
tbh half of the reason i watched that show instead of other cooking shows is b/c for once there is little petty fake drama between ppl. and yelling at everyone
Corpse Sniffer
but how do you fuck up gravy and biscuits??? im concerned
Whydunit
evidently they made the marshmallows from scratch re: the s'mores
Whydunit
I'm sorry, authentic s'mores are slightly burned and constructed with cheap ingredients and getting everywhere. possibly including a little ash or dirt. lol

Whydunit
....I intentionally light my marshmallows on fire for maximum meltage
bbcakes
Gallingly, it seemed like the more authentic of a s'more the bakers made, the more criticism they got. Marshmallow soft or browned? Chocolate gently dripping down the sides? The whole thing squishing into a melty, gooey, mouthwatering morsel? No good.
cassandra
Roll Fizzlebeef
It being messy and leaking out the sides is half the dang point.

Corpse Sniffer
they are difficult to eat that's why you do it in the fucking woods like a civilized person
Corpse Sniffer
or over a plate with 87 napkins
duck bastard
that is way too much marshmallow and not nearly enough chocolate, but iunderstand that is a personal preference
bbcakes
that's not even chocolate that's icing
cassandra
are those the "s'mores" that won or
duck bastard
duck bastard
you put that blasphemous shit back this instant
duck bastard
ICING AND CHOCOLATE AREN'T EVEN THE SAME THING
duck bastard
where is elaborately detailed chocolate guy, he wouldn't do this to me -
decaf coffee
Paul Hollywood "a s'more is a digestive biscuit with chocolate ganache and the biggest coldest marshmallow you've ever seen"
decaf coffee
the avocado I can at least give them a break on because that baker is the only one who was cursed about it all the other avocados were handled normally, and I'm pretty sure she'd never seen an avocado before in her life
decaf coffee
but Paul Hollywood technical challenge s'mores were an affront against s'mores
decaf coffee
and I watched it just the other day and mexican week showstopper was...... tres leches
decaf coffee
did you know. tres leches. can be a tiered cake. and if you do a chocolate and coffee tres leches cake that's fine and authentic.
bbcakes
favors: no, those are the optimal smores, paul hollywood's smores that all other contestants were supposed to make
decaf coffee
the tres leches experience was like every baker desperately wanted to be making tiramisu but no one was brave enough to say it
cassandra
right, technical challenge, forgot what that meant
FRIENDS HUG
Also at least carving avocado like a potato lady avoids accidentally cutting herself trying to remove the pit. Like it's Wrong but it's not like I Have Chosen To Be Wrong like the smores thing
Revenge Guac
I did like the one baker talking about how you don't usually make tres leches tiered and how that's going to be. inordinately difficult.
Revenge Guac
and I gotta appreciate a dude who Gets The Point
FRIENDS HUG
by a guy who has no idea how to make either and once wrote in a cookbook that challah was traditionally eaten during Passover
FRIENDS HUG
UH

SIR

SIR
Whydunit
clearly the person making the challenge forgot that you're supposed to eat s'mores when you're close enough to a wild body of water to throw yourself in afterwards. ganache????
Ⓓⓤⓛⓛⓐⓗⓐⓝ
look if my marshmallow isn't completely black and crispy, it's not a proper smor
papermint tiger
S'mores require Hersey's chocolate I don't make the rules
papermint tiger
I don't like my marshmallow to be burned but it at least needs to be golden brown and squashy
Pen Again
Pen Again
in fact, I don't even need the chocolate. just the burnt marshmallow and the graham cracker
Pen Again
what's the point if you're not catching the marshmallow on fire??
papermint tiger
I hate that though, I mean like what you like obviously but I can't understand why anyone enjoys burned sugar
cassandra
i imagine it's one of those "this is how I had it growing up" things as far as which way your preferences are
Ⓓⓤⓛⓛⓐⓗⓐⓝ
I know it's personal preference. my brother just kind of waves the marshmallow in the direction of the heat lol
papermint tiger
Ah, true
cassandra
for instance my experience with s'mores was largely microwave so that is the way I prefer them but many ppl would consider that blasphemy LMAO
Dr. Yubsie
the exact right colour of marshmallow for s'mores is hotly debated among Girl Guides
Dr. Yubsie
but it has to be gooey and messy
Pen Again
we did our marshmallows in my grandparent's fireplace and I liked it getting caught on fire, having to be blown out, and the crispy outside. it's just how I experienced doing marshmallows, whereas my sister I think was just like meh, get it warm
Pen Again
but I also like the edges of bbq kind of burnt as well so idk ymmv
duck bastard
the point is hot marshmallow
Dr. Yubsie
I am a find a good set of coals for a perfect golden brown outside with melty issue
Dr. Yubsie
inside
Dr. Yubsie
no lightly coloring with a blow torch
Pen Again
seriously the blowtorch is too fancy for smores
Whydunit
....I just like my marshmallows on fire. I don't want anything else
Pen Again
I feel like if they wanted to go "fancy" with smores, they should have fed all the contestants an actual smore and then said "now make something inspired by this" because there are plenty of cakes and cupcakes and whatnot inspired by smores. but A 2 YEAR OLD can make a smore if someone handles the hot parts...it does not belong in a baking contest
Pen Again
if they had them make oreos it'd be less offensive
duck bastard
yeah, that would have been way better
duck bastard
shove all contestants into the middle of the woods, make them go hiking, make smores by a river
duck bastard
"now be inspired"
duck bastard
AND THIS IS WHEN I SAY THAT GUY FIERI CONTESTS ARE THE BEST BECAUSE THEY GET THE MOST RELEVANT PERSON FOR THEM GROCERY GAMES CHALLENGES -
