Gordon Ramsay has a big reputation for having a big personality.
He's a little over the top.
But, you have to admit, anyone who has the guts to eat half the things that are put in
front of him in any of his shows, earns the right to act any way he wants.
And nothing is quite as scary as eating raw food.
Neither Gordon, nor anyone in a restaurant, wants anything to do with uncooked food.
Understandably, Gordon has no tolerance for that kind of cooking.
Here are ten times Gordon Ramsay freaked out over raw food!
The Un-Done Burger
If there's one dish that can stand a little undercooking, it's probably a juicy burger.
Still, a burger needs to be actually cooked.
Health is still a thing, even with a burger patty cooked rare – in fact, many restaurants
won't even cook meat rare in order to avoid any complications.
At Burger Kitchen in California, you'd think they got that part in the order.
Not so much.
Gordon did what any self-respecting patron would do at a place called Burger Kitchen,
and ordered three different burgers.
Surely, one of them would be cooked to perfection.
But burger number one came and...
Well, everyone has a bad day.
And so maybe there was hope for burger number two… nope.
RAW again!
Gordon was dumbfounded.
The third burger was greasy and overdone, the total opposite of raw.
It became really clear what the problem with this restaurant was, these burgers were underwhelming,
and undercooked.
Arctic Cold Fish
It can get pretty steamy during the Hell's Kitchen dinner service.
In the early stages, the women versus men competition is always fierce.
In this season 15 episode, things got tough as the women were struggling to come up with
a great fish dish.
Salmon was the first order but Jackie put out a square piece of salmon that pissed Gordon
off.
Yikes.
But, the women were still in the running, shaking off the mistake and getting back to
cooking.
Things continued to look bad, and then… the arctic char was still rather, well, arctic
cold.
Oof.
This was not good at all.
Now that not one but TWO raw fish dishes were about to go out, he couldn't handle it.
He gave the women a cold boot out of the kitchen.
Chicken to Die For
Things didn't get better for Jackie on Hell's Kitchen.
In a service for Kris Jenner, the lady chefs needed to bring their A-game.
After a slow appetizer execution, including poorly seasoned risotto, the pressure was
on, and it looked as though the women were going to kill their entrees.
Well, not so fast.
Jackie wasn't feeling the fire in the belly that she should, and her chicken didn't
get the fire, either.
Timing is everything in restaurant service, and Jackie just wasn't in sync.
Unfortunately, she thought she knew exactly what she was doing.
With entirely too much confidence, Jackie presented Gordon with a disaster.
It didn't go well.
And they gathered around Gordon to get a classic Gordon freak-out.
Chicken and Awful
A brunch service left the contestants from season 15's Hell's Kitchen a little overly
confident, perhaps.
Two teams were head to head, delivering their brunch menus.
The blue team had a number of items, but the one that gave Jared and Frank some difficulty
was the traditional chicken and waffles dish.
The chicken, fried in a flaky crust, proved difficult to get thoroughly cooked.
The first round of cooking went through Frank, who battered and fried the chicken.
Then it went to Jared, who put the chicken in the oven.
When it was presented to Gordon, he cut the chicken in half...
He didn't like it, but he gave the blue team another chance to redeem themselves.
But, the second chance wasn't worth it – Frank and Jared did the same exact thing all over
again.
Gordon lost his marbles and kicked Jared out of the kitchen.
Raw Onions Leave a Bad Taste in Ramsay's Mouth
Some owners are confident in their food, even when it's terrible.
This was the case with Joe, who owned the Mill Street Inn on Kitchen Nightmares.
His "fresh" food was not only frozen, but he was totally delusional when it came
to good food.
Gordon had to suffer the consequences.
It's true that French onion soup is deceptively difficult, but still, if it's on the menu,
it should be done right.
Joe's soup was terrible!
The criticism that the onion soup needed more onions was heard, and that's good, except
that Joe made a critical mistake that sent Gordon out of his mind!
Joe just didn't get it, and Gordon couldn't believe that such an amateur move could come
out of this kitchen, without even consulting with the actual chef!
A Bad Cut of Steak
On MasterChef, there's some true talent in the kitchen.
Gordon knows that when he cranks up the pressure, the great ones will rise to the top.
Still, even great chefs buckle under pressure – it is Gordon Ramsay after all.
Most of them know they're going to get an earful, and then some.
No one wants the Ramsay scowl, and so sometimes, these chefs overthink things a little too
much.
This was the case late in season 8 when the one contestant, Jason, made a rather ridiculous
decision.
And the worst part?
The most uniform thing about that steak was that it was completely RAW.
Gordon couldn't believe it, this steak was a total failure.
Yeah, sounds like you guys were already screwed.
Emily Approved Them!
By episode 14 of MasterChef, Gordon had high expectations.
The home cooks were expected to be collectively exceptional, and they knew they needed to
be responsible for every detail of their dishes.
In season 9, the episode took them out of the kitchen and into the elements, the teams
heading up against one another, each with a captain.
Emily ran the blue team, and they were cooking a ton of pork chops.
Under pressure and overworked, Emily made a critical error.
Gordon gathered the busy chefs to point out her crucial mistake.
That was one raw pork chop!
Goes to show, haste makes waste.
Trust us, Emily, you never want to make Gordon look stupid.
Skate and Steak
One would think that Gordon Ramsay might take it down a notch for the tiniest Master Chefs
on television.
But, one would have to think again.
Gordon has high standards, no matter the age of the chef, and he doesn't go easy on the
MasterChef Junior contestants.
Just look at this moment, when a team of three chefs stand their ground on their skate and
steak failures.
First, the skate, a raw mess.
Then the steak – raw yet again!
Making the same mistake twice is a classic pet peeve of Ramsay's.
When Gordon confronted them, though, these determined tiny chefs took it.
And when he challenged them to hang up their aprons, they didn't move.
These kids were not messing around.
Their food was raw, but their will was hot!
Clueless Carrie's Bacon Flop
Cooking can be challenging.
Some dishes require a lot of thought and patience, while others need the cook to be quick on
their feet.
Thankfully, not everything requires this much effort.
Some things are just straightforward and delicious.
One of these things is bacon.
Stick it in the frying pan, and fry until cooked.
Not too tough, right?
Well, for Carrie on The F Word, this was a tall order, and unfortunately for her, Gordon
caught her plating RAW bacon on her entree.
Already on his bad side, this didn't go over to well with Gordon.
He freaked out!
Such a simple, easy thing to cook, and so easy to fix, this was simply an unforgivable
mistake, and Gordon had no choice but to set poor Carrie free.
Valentine Massacre
Valentines Day, a day of love and affection – a day of major restaurant reservations.
There's maybe no busier day than Valentine's Day for dinner when it comes to the kitchen,
and people want good, beautiful food.
They're going to spend some money, so at a restaurant, you'd think they'd be on
their A-game for the night.
The lettuce was totally rotten and dirty.
The gross dessert tray wasn't just for display – and it wasn't even just dessert.
There was a truly foul bowl of old soured shrimp.
So gross!
But in the basement, things got RAW when Gordon investigated the walk-in freezer.
There was raw chicken with cooked chicken!
Why was it there?!
Gordon totally lost it.
It was so bad, Gordon shut down the restaurant!
Absolutely nothing is as bad as raw food.
