Who is your fav chef?
I get most of my recipes from blogs. I have made some of Rachel Ray's, Gordon Ramsey's and Giada's recipes - they've all come out really good.
Giada kind of annoys me but I really like Rachel Ray, Gordon Ramsey and Bobby Flay!

Who is your fav chef?
I haven't had cable in a few years and food network is the one channel I truly miss. I love ina garten, her recipes always come out awesome! I've tried a few rachel ray recipes and don't love most of them. I have a few paula deen and alton brown recipes that I really like. Tyler Florence and Bobby Flay look like they have great stuff but it's usually too complicated for me. Every bobby flay recipe I look at has at least two varieties of chili peppers I've never even heard of! Ina Garten is really my go to.

Re: Who is your fav chef?
I love Alton Brown. Probably the biggest reason is because I don't cook (at all), and he explains the science behind everything he does.

Ree Drumond from Pioneer Woman. Her food is easy to make, pretty common and I have never had anything that wasn't amazing. I also like that she writes the recipe and shows you the process. If I could only follow one chef it would be her!

Re: Who is your fav chef?
I don't really like her personality but I love her recipes... Ina Garten.
And I like to watch Giada but sometimes her recipes just are too complicated for me.

I agree! I think her and Ina seem to have the most basic but delicious recipes!

Re: Who is your fav chef?
I love Ina Garten. I have all of her cookbooks, and I just love her whole cooking and entertaining style.
I like a lot of Giada's recipes (have a lot of her cookbooks), but her whole persona just grates on my nerves. I was looking forward to watching Food Networks' "Thanksgiving Live" show, but I felt like Giada was so b%tchy on the show! She was talking over everyone, flirting over-the-top with Bobby Flay and Alton, being petty with Ina... I really thought she seemed drunk, and then she sliced her finger open, so maybe she was a little looped! LOL.
I really enjoy watching The Pioneer Women Cooks show (Ree Drummond), and I also actually like Trisha Yearwood's show. But I haven't made any of their recipes.
I, too, get a lot of recipes now from blogs and Pinterest (and magazines).

Re: Who is your fav chef?
Nigella Lawson, she seems so unpretentious and relatable. I can't stand the regulars on Food Network anymore - Rachel Ray, Bobby Flay, Ina, Giada, they all annoy the crap out of me - although I do love to watch iron Chef and would die of happiness to judge one of Morimoto's battles.
As far as recipes, DH and I tend to gravitate towards Bobby Flay, Aaron McCargo, and Guy Fieri (Guy Ferry)'s recipes because that's the kind of food we like to cook. Ina is great for basics. I almost never use Giada's recipes anymore because I am not a fan of her weird combinations.

Emeril Lagasse. Ate at his restaurant in Orlando and it was the most delicious meal DH and I have ever eaten. But I love watching the Neely's cook. Haven't seen them in a while, but I love them.

I also really like her. I have never had a bad dish with her recipes.
I am also a big fan of Lidia Bastianich. She cooks very similiar to my mom - Northern Itailian cuisine. I like the simplicity of her recipies.
