When their 30 minutes starts, Lizzie heads right bick to the salmin agin, because she wants to apoligize to it for focking it up last time. She plans to make an iligant fish styew. Top Model decides to tackle the cod, and since her butchery was pretty bad when she trounced Blowsie, she wants to prove she can do it right, only with a different kind of fish. She’s also decided on a fish soup, which makes sense, since searing a fish would probably be a nightmare over an uncontrollable open flame. She has decided to make an Asian dish, because unlike Stachey and Stoner, she’s not stuck exclusively in her primary background of French Classical training, she believes showing versatility between food styles is the true sign of a Top Chef. Can we please just award it to her now?
So they’re cooking away, and just when Top Model starts learning her way around the campfire, it starts to rain. Lizzie doesn’t seem to be bothered by it…

maybe because she has a blessed photo of Saint Bobblehead to keep her dry
It has not escaped Daddy Tom’s notice that both of them essentially made a fish stew, and he starts with Top Model’s…

hmmmm, needs bacon
This is followed shortly by Lizzie’s Last Shot…

topped with too-toasted toast
Top Model notices that Daddy Tom seems to really be chowing down on Lizzie’s dish, he’s eaten much more of hers than he did Model’s, and this is worrying her big time. When he’s finished, Daddy remarks that he’s really lucky he gets to Judge LCK, because he’s getting better food here than he is in the regular competition…

dunno why that is
I think Daddy Tom might just have admitted S.T.S. In any case, Daddy heavily praises Top Model’s Asian offering for being so balanced, not overly sweet, and not overly spicy. Then he tells Lizzie that if she had served this dish during salmon & sourdough, there’s no question that she would have won the whole thing, he really enjoyed the stew, that’s why he gobbled so much of it up. So it’s not really a shock when the winner is…

duh, Top Model

fock
Awww, bye Lizzie, thanks for oll the fon iccent stoff. Daddy confirms that next week is the last episode of this shit, and then we will begin the seventeen-part Finale. I’m guessing at this point that Top Model will have to once again square off against UniBall, and if he beats her, then I am very likely going to find it difficult to continue breathing.
If you like it, spread it!:

fucking make a dish that describes yourself in a haiku about what makes things better involving a food item AND DO IT IN SHIRT FORM
you know this will be the finale
of top chef tumblr people who like the show enough to pretend to be better than it but still watch it every weak and then choose judges (to judge fucking pictures like… rational human beings of this site and the commenters that decided that neither commenters or commentors would appear correctly on spell check) out of the two followers (PROBABLY WHITE MALES TO EMPHASIZE THE PLIGHT OF WOMEN WHO HAVE TUMBLRS) they get that probably want to make fun of it but are drunk and forgot to. I am the drunk and didn’t forget to.
YOU KNOW WHAT MAKES EVERYTHING BETTER?
BACON AND CORNBREAD AND WAR
YOU MIX THE THREE TOGETHER AND YOU GET A FUCKING T-SHIRT THAT NO ONE EVER SHOULD EVER BE FUCKING WEARING. FUCK WHO THE UFCK WEARS T SHIRTS ON PURPOSE. IF I WAS A CELEBRITY AND GOT CAUGHT WEARING A T-SHIRT, LITTLE ALONE ADVOCATING THE PLIGHT OR WHATEVER IT IS THAT WAR HAS TO DO WITH FUCKING CORNBREAD
I REALLY DON’T KNOW WHAT I’D DO BECAUSE I WOULDN’T BE A FUCKING RETARD WEARING A HOT TOPIC T SHIRT IN THE YEAR 2013. AND IT WOULDN’T BE ABOUT FUCKING BACON BECAUSE IT’S NOT 2010.
NEXT WEEK ON TOP SHIT:
SOMEONE PROBABLY DOESN’T QUITE WIN YET LOL. BUT IT’S YOUR FAULT, NOT MINE I CIRCUMVENTED THE CAPTCHA USING MAGIC*
*I had to watch two ads to get it right BECAUSE I THOUGHT FUCKING CAPS WERE SUPPOSED TO BE CRUISE CONTROL
Still reading, but the quickfire judge looks like the lovechild of LaGassy and StacheBear!
Captcha is “love me”, because you know LaGassy hit and quit it and Stachey just can’t let go.
I will miss Lizzie. And the recaps of her accent are spot on hilarious!! I find myself reading your version outloud lol!! And I literally laughed outloud at “looking like an LL Bean catalog”. Perfection!! I can’t decide who I want to win. I don’t feel emotionally invested in anyone this season.
This season is boring. the. shit. out of me. I didn’t have access to Bravo during the 7th season, so I’ll have to take your word that this season is far worse. And really, the downward spiral began when Kristen was eliminated because she was one of the few contestants who proved to be really talented. It’s like we got 3 or 4 really great chefs and 20 mediocre fillers. But with Kristen gone, you can really see just how average everyone else is in comparison: I totally ignored how Sheldon used Asian food as a crutch, but now it’s annoying the hell out of me. This has been a rough ass season, but the recaps make it so much better. Now I have a lovely daydream where LaShawn Beyond rises from obscurity to snatch Josh’s bacon, exclaiming “THIS IS NOT RUPAULS BEST BACON RACE, BITCH.”
And that, my dears, is what I like to call hope.
Oh J-Mo, these recaps are the only thing making this season bearable. For fucks sake, Stach needs to stop with the bacon. STOP. Loved the Blazing Saddles refernce; made me snort laugh! Top Model for the win!
“And really, the downward spiral began when Kristen was eliminated…”
Actually, the downward spiral began when they said “Welcome to Top Chef Seattle. Surprise! Here are our 3 returning chefs.”
And, yeah, Snidley Dumbass is actually making me hate bacon. Which is just sad.
Every time I read the title – Suffering Succotash goes in my head. And now I cannot remember which cartoon character said it. Aggravating! I’m at the point where I don’t want any of these three winning – I have my fingers crossed that top model makes it back and takes the whole thing!
Okay, so I always say I hate Florida (the only damn place I’ve ever lived), but the freak-storm in the Northeast and J-Mo’s first paragraph are actually giving me pause…the worst day of said storm was a de-fucking-lightful sunny and cloudless 80 degrees here, so…not so bad?
I think I finally learned a valuable lesson! Although I STILL desperately want to go sledding and skiing and snowmobiling and…you get the point. Back to reading.
I totes forgot until I saw the “carnage” photo how much I miss Deadliest Catch! I’m guessing they’re filming the opilio season now? Wrap it up, people, and get to editing. I need my fix, especially since TC is ending soon and J-Mo goes with it. Wah!!!
Featherhead – Suffering Succotash = Sylvester the Cat.
Thank you JJ!!
Late to the party again, but I have to comment on this:
you wanna go with me to get a manicure and then roll around naked in some bacon?
HAHAHAHAHA!!! He has been away from the wife for a long time!
Can they just crown Kristen? At this point it’s just becoming painful. Not only is she clearly the best, but she’s the most gracious. And I have to agree with Jimbob, the season took a massive runny shit when they brought the 3 returning chefs back.
J-mo, those are the sweetest little kitties!!! I really think Sheldon should have gone, he seemed to have more egregious mistakes than Lizzie did, but heck, this show is dismissive of women, otherwise, how are the average talents of Stachy and Stoner in the final group!
I’m still a little confused as to how the finale will play out with LCK and a voted in person. For the vote in, is it week to week, winner take all, and then they restart . . . I can’t see how Uni has the most votes at anything other than “most likely to be an entitled douche”!
I was really hoping for an all female finale . . . sigh . . .
