The third episode of Hells Kitchen opens with a reminder of what happened last week.  Corey nominating two people for personal reasons has certainly made her unpopular with the red team right now.  The blue team however, seem to think that corey’s move was brilliant.  We think she may have played this card a little early.

The next morning the teams awaken to chickens running around the apartment and each contestant has to grab one and bring it downstairs.  This part was actually pretty funny as chef Ramsey has them thinking that they are going to have to kill the chicken that they are each holding.  This obviously does not happen and he explains to them what the challenge is going to be.   Their challenge is going to be cutting up a chicken into 8 pieces.  Each team will have 5 minutes to cut up their chicken and the team with the most acceptable pieces wins.

The challenge is rather blah this time around.  Nothing very exciting, no drama to speak of.  The women do a very good job and  Vanessa, Roseann, Kristina, and Corey all get a perfect 8 out of 8 on their chicken pieces.  The women wind up with a total of 44 perfect pieces.   The men on the other hand is another story.  On Petrozza and Ben get 8 pieces accepted and Craig is the worst of everyone when he has only 2 acceptable pieces, eliminating the men from the challenge.  As a result of their loss, the men are tasked with having to pick peppers on a 100 acre farm, and the women get to go to lunch on the Sunset Strip with chef Ramsey.

Not to sure about this “prize” for the womens team.  The restaurant that they go to on the sunset strip?  The Saddle Ranch, and guess who is their?  Aaron from last season, you know, they guy who just completely broke down on the first episode….something about this whole thing just seemed a bit off, not much of a prize if you ask us.

As for the men and their pepper picking?  Nothing too exciting going on their either.  Not at all surprising is that Jason is moaning and whining.

Now when everyone gets back to the apartment is when somethings of interest actually start happening.  The women are in the hot tub and trying to tempt some of the men in with them.  Most of the men are smart and see that the women are only trying to play them, except for Jason.  For some reason it is not at all surprising that the most sexist person on the show is also the most easily manipulated by the opposite sex.  Jason falls for their plan hook, line, and sinker and pretty much spills his guts and rats out his entire team.

During dinner service Jason once again shows us why he is our least favorite and why we think he should have gone home.  When asked to name the deserts for the evening, he can’t.  He is sent upstairs to study and the blue team has to make up for his absence.  His absence (and the fact that Bobby was picked to go and cook table side) has really left the men in a bad situation.  It takes them over an hour and a half before they get 1/2 of a table their appetizers.  Jason eventually comes down and promptly can not name the deserts again.  This is where we got excited as Jason said he was just going to go home and that he couldn’t handle it….sadly, Gordon gets him to answer the questions again and he is going to stay….damn!  This actually turned out to be a good thing as we got to see Jason make a complete ass of himself trying to make deserts.  Of course he had to make his obligatory comment about how women should be the ones making deserts, but it is quite amusing watching his creme brulee turn out wrong.  They are so wrong in fact that it actually drives Gordon to go and bang his head against a table a few times.

The women don’t exactly fair much better than the men.  They do manage to get out more appetizers than the men (four to be exact) but really hit a wall when it comes to the entrees.  Vanessa can’t seem to get the meat station right and keeps turning out raw dish after raw dish.  The same thing is happening on the mens side, but it is Ben on the fish station that is having problems.  One point of interest here was Bobby out on the floor.  Realizing that his entrees were not coming out for his table, Bobby actually starts serving his table side chicken family style to hold the customers over.  It doesn’t really matter anyways as no one can get any entrees out at all.

Probably the worst night of service yet.  No entrees went out at all and only 4 1/2 tables saw any appetizers.  Gordon is very reluctant to name a winning team, so he doesn’t.  Instead he picks Petrozza and Kristina to pick one person from their respective teams to put up for nomination.  Petrozza picks Jason (no surprise there and much to our delight), and Kristina picks Vanessa (which was the classy, and right decision given how easily she could have picked Corey after last weeks nominations).

In the end, it is our EXTREME pleasure to announce that Jason has been sent home!!!!!  Yay!!!! Yeah!!!  We feel bad, but we really, really, really, did not like Jason and we are very happy that he i gone from the show.

Oh, one more note…funniest line of the show yet was when Chef Ramsey was describing how Jason moves…”You move like a tortoise, giving birth”  LOL.

Anyways, another good episode of Hells Kitchen in the books.  With the main theme being chicken this week, we have decided to post a nice Chicken recipe for everyone to enjoy.
