Yeah, after he said that, I kind of just lost respect for him because Christine was an amazing chef, and the fact that Joe called her a liability, even though she had so much talent just pissed me off so much.
He is totally correct. a blind person being a chef. how the hell does she know what the ingredients are. how does she not burn herself on the stove? How does she know the correct measurements for the ingredients. How does she know The correct temperature for the oven. It is totally ludicrous. 🤪.

Not defending Joe, he's just as pretentious. Just saying that some of the cringe-inducing contestants at least get deserving nasty reviews.

@@AlexDuWaldtin the nicest way possible: knowledge of cooking should absolutely not be measured by how many restaurants you own and that is a crazy criterion to suggest. Any Michelin-starred chef on Earth knows more about food than Salt Bae.

@@YonkoBlackbeard lol no. The 1st restaurant he opened was not inherited from his parents. You probably just heard his parents were famous so you assume he just inherited everything 🤣🤣
People defend joe and say hes just "doing his job" no he isnt. he the amount of times he targets the food that he is supposed to "judge" is extremely lacking, and his ability to provide advice and give feedback, which is what judging entails, is similarly lacking, especially when comparing him to other judges on the show. Instead, he attacks the chefs themselves, being downright rude to many of them. You can be harsh as a judge, sure, but to be rude, discrimatory, and outright a bad person is simply unacceptable and, in his words, is "digusting".
OK that was a bad example of Cutter. He was actually asking an appropriate question and none of the judges actually gave him a non passive aggressive answer😂
When he congratulated the lady on having the worst dish he ever had and she smiled and said thank you and gordon covered his face trying not to laugh is still one of the funniest things ive ever seen on that show 😂😂😂😂
I disagree with most of the comments here; Joe knows food and he has eaten quite a lot around the world, and has been a restaurateur for a long time. He doesn't need to be a chef to judge food. If the food is bad, he pretty much calls it straight out and bluntly, yeah the tone and words are harsh but the contestants shouldn't take it personally. He doesn't attack a contestant unless this contestant is arrogant and went against the judges. Also, sometimes he does give certain warnings on how to avoid screwing up some parts or what to look out during a contestant's cook-off, and that's constructive.
Lmao no. 80% of his reviews are utterly unhelpful, and the majority of them are not only criticism, but completely unconstructive. Most of what he says amounts to "This is a terrible joke and you insult me" then he throws it away, sometimes before the other judges can even taste it. Joe does not know food, he isn't a chef, his palate and understanding of food as an art is equivalent to someone that just eats in fancy restaurants often and tries to analyze the food they make. Sometimes he'll literally throw food away before even tasting it. He doesn't need to be a chef to judge food, but he should be a chef to act like he understands what chefs do and like he has some intricate, complex, deep understanding of food as an art form and is capable of being a professional judge on a show with world-class chefs like Gordon Ramsay, this is just straight-up delusional tbh. Even on the rare occasions he gives constructive positivity (not criticism because that is pretty much never), it's usually just as basic as "the texture and flavor is nice good job". He also contradicts himself CONSTANTLY, flip-flopping on whether someone should play it safe or try to be creative, he can never make up his mind. Graham and Gordon are real qualified judges and give true advice. Graham is nice in what he does, Gordon is harsh but effective. They're mentors, good chefs, and people to respect in this medium. Joe is just the unbearable constantly angry and unimpressed boss everyone hates that rarely has anything good or nice to say and doesn't understand the people he's constantly judging or what they're doing. You can easily spot how absolutely, insanely hard Joe is trying to be the cool guy with high standards or some Gordon Ramsay type figure. He practically wants to own the show. He has a massive ego and it sometimes gives me second hand embarrassment seeing how much of a clown this dude is.
The whole point of food critics is dumb anyway. Critics without proper feedback in order for the chef to improve are just insulting, disrespectful, and meaningless. And this is what Joe embodies
@@Taureanfitness Well if you want to make that same defence for what he said about Christine needing to be not even in the kitchen because she's blind-
Extremely unlikeable chef even Gordon And Marco Aren’t as harsh as is him and they give compliments to the cooks food when its good and let them know when its bad even when a dish is good joe still has to find something wrong about it joe is just a bitter person and it shows
theres so many ways to go about criticizing something or trying to give some constructive criticism/feedback and this dude just ignores all of them and just belittles and bullies the contestants. he acts like he’s the only judge in the room and that each and every dish made is going to directly impact him for life. i’d much rather be told it stinks but given tips on how to improve rather than be told it’s a complete and utter disgrace and basically drain all the hope out of people
I remember one of the dishes he just slammed down the trash can. It was a bunch of cut fruits with a sticked poked on top of every piece. I mean, when you are faced with a "dish" like that, how do you even say anything to improve it. It's utter trash.
There’s a difference between criticising someone’s dish to help them improve vs criticising someone who’s tried their best and acting like their failure is some kind of moral wrong. He acts like he’s entitled to good food and anyone who doesn’t provide is disrespectful.
A judge I respect is someone like chef Michael from Masterchef Canada. He gives you the good points and other things that can improve the dish. His decisions are final, but he still wants the best out of those home cooks. If it's blatantly bad, he'll also tell you why instead of slamming it into the trash right away.
I refuse to believe that’s actually how he’s like and that he’s not just playing his character right here. Until I meet a person in real life, I won’t make any real judgements on them as a person. I’ll judge his made up character, just not him.
i like Joe a lot, to me he is honest, some of them need to be put in their places, so many have big egos and he's good at taking them down a notch, well done!
I personally like joe, he wastes no time and ultimately just seeks for people who actually put effort and passion into their food. Although he’s arrogant and a lot of the “attacks” on pure people actually trying aren’t necessary. He will be quick to call someone out when they’re narcissistic or just there to have 6 seconds of fame.
Tearing down Tali was more than necessary and only Joe had the balls to call him out. Dude's delusional, proclaims himself a genius, takes no notes, no feedback and cooks subpar stuff.
You cannot blame him, he's just there to get paid handsomely. And y'all watch it because of the drama he can provide. Y'all hate it but still watch it, haha.
There’s a difference between being critical and being an ass. Joe falls, unfortunately, into the latter. Being critical doesn’t mean saying “your food is disgusting.” It means saying “you did this wrong, learn from it.” Gordon may come across as an asshole, but he gives feedback on the show in the form of “you did this wrong, learn from this for next time.” Elliot is less abrasive in his overall approach. Joe? Nah. Why use constructive criticism when you can just insult the person for being born?
If you watch Masterchef Italy he's completely different. Harsh sometimes, especially in the first seasons, but overall definitely not as mean as americans perceived.
In defense of Joe Bastianich, he was fulfilling his role as a judge more than that of a mentor and everyone is hating him for doing what judges do - judging. This is my point of view, and yes, hating him doesn't make you a better person, he still has more experiences in being a chef than most, if not, all of his haters.
Judging sure. But not tasting anything, throwing food and the plate, arguing with the contestants when they're not, not knowing how Chinese food looks like. What kind of judge is that? That's what being raised in their parents' restaurant looks like. The fact that at times Gordon was completely fed up with him says a lot about Joe.
That’s the thing he wasn’t judging, he was just being a bully, I guarantee when it came time for a person to present there food he would come up with a script in his head no matter how good the food was and just trash the person
What Cutter said was SO idiotic. I can't even believe how stupid that was. Seeing it years later... aside from Joe being a bit overboard... cutter just failed so completely there
This guy seems to have a bigger ego than them, clearly. Some of the people he's critiqued their food on weren't at all arrogant about their skills but this guy sounded more like a jerk, really. He's not an easy one to impress, it seems.
The weird thing is that he's not even a real chef from what I've learned. And he comes off sounding more like a bully than a real judge giving legit criticism. When comparing him to the judges on other Masterchef shows, the difference is night and day. They give good criticism, this guy doesn't.
He is the most vile person I’ve ever seen. If one looks up arrogance in the dictionary, they will see his face. If one looks up rude, again Joe shows up. The issue with him is that he truly doesn’t care if he hurts anyone. Being critical is one thing, and part of judging. Being straight out mean is a choice and shows who he is at his core.
Out of all the chefs I love Joe tbh yes he’s critical but one it’s a show, two he’s judging idiots who serve him raw pork, made him a disgusting pizza, like if I was given shit food and have to be dealing with 6 shit plates and 2 good I’d be irritated asf myself and not give a shit about hurting someone’s feelings after they insulted food
I don't think Joe's a very good judge. There's a difference between giving criticism and saying "It's garbage, I wouldn't feed that to my dog." rather than "It's not good. It needs more seasoning, the flavors don't mix, and the noodles are slightly under cooked." He never tells them what they did wrong or why it's bad & how to fix it. Instead he just says "It's terrible." ... like no Joe, you're terrible. & what times I've eaten at your restaurants, I've had better steaks at Chilis my guy. I don't see why he has any right to judge anyone elses dish.

Extremely unlikeable chef even Gordon And Marco Aren’t as harsh as is him and they give compliments to the cooks food when its good and let them know when its bad even when a dish is good joe still has to find something wrong about it joe is just a bitter person and it shows
Joe praises good food too, stop being so biased.
Joe: "That's the most fucked up Risotto I've ever seen!"
Contestant: "It's Nasi Goreng..."
There is a big difference of being a complete (insert any negative word) and being a critical judge
I like how he brings up presumptuous chefs and they show a clip of Cutter, one of the more understanding contestants.
He’s not famous he’s a mommas boy
A food judge and a comedian are the only two jobs where you can actually get away with insulting people lol
theres so many ways to go about criticizing something or trying to give some constructive criticism/feedback and this dude just ignores all of them and just belittles and bullies the contestants. he acts like he’s the only judge in the room and that each and every dish made is going to directly impact him for life. i’d much rather be told it stinks but given tips on how to improve rather than be told it’s a complete and utter disgrace and basically drain all the hope out of people
I remember one of the dishes he just slammed down the trash can.
It was a bunch of cut fruits with a sticked poked on top of every piece. I mean, when you are faced with a "dish" like that, how do you even say anything to improve it. It's utter trash.
I actually like Joe. Him and Gordon's banter was pretty funny
He just said "we don't review contestants, we judge". Then goes on to say "if I can give a nasty review"... Bro contradicts himself.
He's like Andrew Tate's older brother. He even looks like him lmao
There’s a difference between criticising someone’s dish to help them improve vs criticising someone who’s tried their best and acting like their failure is some kind of moral wrong. He acts like he’s entitled to good food and anyone who doesn’t provide is disrespectful.
A judge I respect is someone like chef Michael from Masterchef Canada. He gives you the good points and other things that can improve the dish. His decisions are final, but he still wants the best out of those home cooks. If it's blatantly bad, he'll also tell you why instead of slamming it into the trash right away.
People need to stop shitting on Joe for being different
I refuse to believe that’s actually how he’s like and that he’s not just playing his character right here. Until I meet a person in real life, I won’t make any real judgements on them as a person. I’ll judge his made up character, just not him.
i dont understand why people hate this man, i mean... i like this guy, yes sometimes hes out of the line but its all for the show, he is quite likable
Man sometimes i am suprised how easy it is to hate a person
i like Joe a lot, to me he is honest, some of them need to be put in their places, so many have big egos and he's good at taking them down a notch, well done!
Agree 100%!
I personally like joe, he wastes no time and ultimately just seeks for people who actually put effort and passion into their food. Although he’s arrogant and a lot of the “attacks” on pure people actually trying aren’t necessary. He will be quick to call someone out when they’re narcissistic or just there to have 6 seconds of fame.
Christine Ha did amazing and Joe judged based on her disability. 🤷🏻♂️
It takes a narcissist like Joe to be able to spot another one of his own
Imagine seeing Joseph tells Joe; You got a fork? Why do I look like a caveman?
He was a lil too harsh omg lmfao
JOE DIDNT EVEN GO TO CULINARY SCHOOL!!
Joe is not criticizing, he’s offending
What he does is not criticising or judging, but just toxic narcissistic bullying. Straight
“We don’t review contestants, I’m a judge”
“Sometimes if I can give a nasty review…”
if the word 'douchebag' was a human
First be a real judge yourself and then judge others
Tearing down Tali was more than necessary and only Joe had the balls to call him out. Dude's delusional, proclaims himself a genius, takes no notes, no feedback and cooks subpar stuff.
Joe has been nice in the recent MasterChef seasons though. Like in this season, he gave contestants some advice when they're cooking too
You cannot blame him, he's just there to get paid handsomely. And y'all watch it because of the drama he can provide. Y'all hate it but still watch it, haha.
There’s a difference between being critical and being an ass.
Joe falls, unfortunately, into the latter. Being critical doesn’t mean saying “your food is disgusting.” It means saying “you did this wrong, learn from it.”
Gordon may come across as an asshole, but he gives feedback on the show in the form of “you did this wrong, learn from this for next time.” Elliot is less abrasive in his overall approach. Joe? Nah. Why use constructive criticism when you can just insult the person for being born?
The only loser I see is Joe.
Cutter and Tali are not?
If you watch Masterchef Italy he's completely different. Harsh sometimes, especially in the first seasons, but overall definitely not as mean as americans perceived.
I haven’t seen this yet but I can tell you he does not. No narcissist feels bad about anything but themselves.
Well, if you watch the full video you will find that he ever felt bad
It's not about judging but about the underlying insecurity that he doesn't want to admit lol
" If he feels bad " ????
That requires a conscience...........!!!!!!!
In defense of Joe Bastianich, he was fulfilling his role as a judge more than that of a mentor and everyone is hating him for doing what judges do - judging. This is my point of view, and yes, hating him doesn't make you a better person, he still has more experiences in being a chef than most, if not, all of his haters.
Imagine defending shit behavior that leaves the other judges in silence. Stop reaching.
Judging sure. But not tasting anything, throwing food and the plate, arguing with the contestants when they're not, not knowing how Chinese food looks like. What kind of judge is that? That's what being raised in their parents' restaurant looks like. The fact that at times Gordon was completely fed up with him says a lot about Joe.
That’s the thing he wasn’t judging, he was just being a bully, I guarantee when it came time for a person to present there food he would come up with a script in his head no matter how good the food was and just trash the person
What Cutter said was SO idiotic. I can't even believe how stupid that was. Seeing it years later... aside from Joe being a bit overboard... cutter just failed so completely there
Joe theres a reason why Graham stayed on for another season after you left the first time
Dude wanted to be Gordon so bad hahaha
"I have to be mean 'cause got nothing else to offer"
I love how they showed cutter 😂😂😂😂
Do people actually hate Joe? The show would be boring without him
I actually love him😂. His presence really made lots of the competitors nervous and destroying some of their egos is fun to watch 😂
This guy seems to have a bigger ego than them, clearly. Some of the people he's critiqued their food on weren't at all arrogant about their skills but this guy sounded more like a jerk, really. He's not an easy one to impress, it seems.
That says a lot about you and shows how sad your life has to be
Travelled around the world, owned 2 restaurants and a meat shop, happily married for 5 years, life is great brother.
@amos1482 agreed lol
The weird thing is that he's not even a real chef from what I've learned. And he comes off sounding more like a bully than a real judge giving legit criticism. When comparing him to the judges on other Masterchef shows, the difference is night and day. They give good criticism, this guy doesn't.
He remind me of my math teacher. We do get along EVENTUALLY
The show would be soo boring without him, it need a little bit of drama and this guy puts it
He goes overboard when one contestant try ravioli with something of his own twist. Lmao he just attack that person.
He is the most vile person I’ve ever seen. If one looks up arrogance in the dictionary, they will see his face. If one looks up rude, again Joe shows up. The issue with him is that he truly doesn’t care if he hurts anyone. Being critical is one thing, and part of judging. Being straight out mean is a choice and shows who he is at his core.
Tbh gordon doesnt even agree with Joe's BS 90% of the time. And thats saying something 🤷♂️
the criticism: "it's garbage is what it is"
Out of all the chefs I love Joe tbh yes he’s critical but one it’s a show, two he’s judging idiots who serve him raw pork, made him a disgusting pizza, like if I was given shit food and have to be dealing with 6 shit plates and 2 good I’d be irritated asf myself and not give a shit about hurting someone’s feelings after they insulted food
joe is goat masterchef judge
I love you Joe Bastianich
I don't think Joe's a very good judge. There's a difference between giving criticism and saying "It's garbage, I wouldn't feed that to my dog." rather than "It's not good. It needs more seasoning, the flavors don't mix, and the noodles are slightly under cooked." He never tells them what they did wrong or why it's bad & how to fix it. Instead he just says "It's terrible." ... like no Joe, you're terrible. & what times I've eaten at your restaurants, I've had better steaks at Chilis my guy. I don't see why he has any right to judge anyone elses dish.
