Draw Knives : A Top Chef Recap Podcast Draw Knives Podcast

This week's ep is a doozy. The LCK winner returns. The chefs have 24 questions to ask Tom about a dish he made for Kristen and Gail for the Quickfire. The Elimination challenge has the chefs plating their entire dish on a table for the judges to eat directly off of. A season favorite ends up packing their knives for a bad table of food, but they remain in our podcast hosts' hearts forever.

This week the chefs enjoyed two of Wisconsin's food traditions: meat raffles and fish boils. And if that wasn't enough, they had to do the latter with Art Smith and former Top Chef contestants among the judges. One competitor cuts themselves, while another gets sent home for an uncharacteristically unfocused dish. And then our hosts recap the two part LCK finale and reveal the winner.

Mega episode alert! This week our hosts invite brilliant Top Chef data nerd @carly.sue.bear to help recap this week's episode! Carly reveals her Mount Rushmore of Top Chefs before diving into this exciting episode featuring gorgeous native ingredients. Corn smut, anyone?
