Gordon Ramsay set out to redeem himself after making a much-criticized grilled cheese sandwich tutorial in 2020.
Gordon Ramsay is looking for redemption.
On Sunday, the British chef, 56, set out to undo an embarrassing culinary fail that got him roasted by fans. Ramsay posted a video on Instagram, explaining what he was up to, as he walked around a race track.
“The last time I made a grilled cheese sandwich was in Tasmania, and you guys absolutely pummeled me,” he began the clip, referring to his 2020 “ultimate grilled cheese sandwich” cooking tutorial, filmed as part of his Gordon Ramsay: Uncharted TV series.
Ramsay got a lot of flak for his sandwich, with one TikToker even creating a viral video in 2021, pointing out that he used the wrong kinds of cheese, cut his bread too thick and — the horror — didn’t properly melt the cheese.
“I took it on the chin, I got thick skin,” Ramsay said of the chatter around his sandwich snafu in Sunday’s video. “So I’d like to redeem myself and give you a grilled cheese like no other.”
This time, he explained, he’d be doing things a little differently. “I have an oven that is slightly more powerful. It comes in the shape of something unique,” he teased. “I think it’s the sexiest oven you’ve ever seen in your entire life.”
He continued to hint, “It’s a V12. It is a 1,200 horsepower engine, 6.2 liter. And I’m gonna show you how to grill cheese like no freaking other.”
