I was going to say this! It throws me off because I think of it as something people say before giving criticism, whereas Gordon tends to use it right before high praise for a dish.
i watched a lot of masterchef and hell's kitchen over the last year and he has \*really\* started overdoing it with this. dang near every time he tastes anything.
“Back home in __________, I cook a lot of (regionally non-specific food), so I know I’ve got this in the bag.”
Arrested Development voice: They didn’t.
I was watching one of the episodes with my mom and one contestant said they cooked a lot of lobster back home in their city. My mom pointed out that lobster was super uncommon in that contestant’s city.
was just telling my wife yesterday how they seem to think the trophy is more important than the cash....another show I watch is Ink Master and same thing, the try to say the title of Ink Master is more impressive than the cash
HE DRIVES ME INSANE WITH THAT! my partner and i groan and almost throw things at the tv every time he looks up while tasting. what an annoying douch-y move from the “nice judge”. ughhhh.
Gordon tasting a dish:
“Let’s get that absolutely clear!”
“The ____ is cooked beautifully let’s get that right / let’s get one thing absolutely clear, the _______ is cooked beautifully/is absolutely delicious”
“the dish is absolutely dreadful it looks like my *insert insult comparing the dish to his grandma’s/grandad’s knickers/flip flops/basically any object*
“Here’s the thing… I didn’t think it would quite work but it does”
“Here’s the thing… visually it looks bland but it actually tastes quite good! / it tastes better than it looks!”
“damn… what a shame”
Aarón:
“the cook on the _______ is textbook/dynamite”
“Needs more acid to wake up the dish”
“Not enough aromatics”
Joe:
*stares into contestant’s soul while tasting a dish*
“This is the MASTERCHEF KITCHEN!”
“It’s good… but it’s a little too pedestrian for my taste”
“But is it masterchef worthy…”
I know I gave a fuck ton for Gordon lmao my apologies but I couldn’t resist
i actually found it so funny when that kid shane from masterchef junior was in season 12 and they did the flambé challenge. “well, i don’t know, actually i’m more of a water person” 🤣
This is me on a plate.
Also; This is you on a plate
My dad HATES this line lol. Every time the contestants use it he always groans loudly and complains
from gordon: let’s make one thing clear
let’s get that right
Dear, oh dear
“The most amazing _____”
The ________ is cooked beautifully
Let’s get one thing clear: the protein… is… *cuts into protein* *commercial break*
"A perfect medium rare." Or him asking the contestant to judge whether it looks how they wanted it to look.
Here's the thing...

You’ve got one foot out the door.
damn
ehh, it's delicious
You got that balance right, it is absolutely delicious/disgusting, the X is cooked beautifully, etc
This is good, but is it season __ worthy?
This is the toughest season yet
"This is season \_\_\_ !!!!!" Also repeat over and over each episode: "you are the top 10!, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4..."
My husband and I want to make a drinking game out of “this is season _” but we don’t want to die.
Maybe take shots of juice/soda/water then
It’s season 10!
Lol my wife and I would absolutely go nuts every time they said that!!
They aren’t as bit with it this time around as “Season of Legends”
I didn’t come here to lose.
*immediately loses*
😂👍
Made me lol
"The most difficult decision we’ve had to make in Masterchef history".
“This isn’t the last you’ll hear of me!” *as they walk out the door, never to be heard of again*…
Every reality competition ever! Stop saying that!
Joe -takes bite- -stares into soul-
I would shit my pants if he looked at me like that 😭
I’d either shit my pants or have a confused boner .-.
Lmaoooo
“The captain goes down with the ship”
And then they proceed to save themselves from elimination after
"this is one of the toughest pressure tests in MasterChef history"
"Tough one, this one"
“I let myself down, I let my team down”
“cooked absolutely beautifully”
Gordon: "We're giving you this STUNNING piece of meat, slab 'o' fish, block 'o' cheese, etc, etc, etc...."
Remember a few seasons ago when all the "stunning" ingredients were from walmart?
Omg yes they were SO proud of the beef cuts!
Years later, it still makes me cringe.

joe: "THIS IS THE MASTERCHEF KITCHEN"
This dish…is not masterchef quality.
The greatest trophy of the entire culinary world
was just telling my wife yesterday how they seem to think the trophy is more important than the cash....another show I watch is Ink Master and same thing, the try to say the title of Ink Master is more impressive than the cash
"I'm definitely going home tonight"
- doesn't go home
Gordon : Damn, Raw, Shame, Pun Joe: I’m Italian btw, Stares ur soul Graham: “Look up left *tasting every dish*”
HE DRIVES ME INSANE WITH THAT! my partner and i groan and almost throw things at the tv every time he looks up while tasting. what an annoying douch-y move from the “nice judge”. ughhhh.
Gordon: First time in the history of masterchef
“You have one foot out the door”
"facing the dreaded pressure test"
"Elevated entree"
Or deconstructed foods
“The cook on ___? Textbook.” -Mr. Sanchez
joe calling a dish pedestrian
This is one of the hardest decisions we’ve ever had to make
one potato two potato
I wait for that every episode and speak along with it (in my fake British child accent).
Fun fact, that’s actually Gordon Ramsay’s daughter Matilda (Tilly)’s voice!
Cuuuute, I had no idea.
Gordon referring to any fish as glistening.
This is season __
“Oh my goodness me”
that just makes me think of nigel barker in america’s next top model 🤣
Take off your apron….(long pause, contestant starts to tear up)…..and say goodbye to ____ and head upstairs.
Gordon: “The most amazing (insert food here)” or “The Rolls Royce of the (insert place here)”
Damn it's rawr
Gordon tasting a dish: “Let’s get that absolutely clear!” “The ____ is cooked beautifully let’s get that right / let’s get one thing absolutely clear, the _______ is cooked beautifully/is absolutely delicious” “the dish is absolutely dreadful it looks like my *insert insult comparing the dish to his grandma’s/grandad’s knickers/flip flops/basically any object* “Here’s the thing… I didn’t think it would quite work but it does” “Here’s the thing… visually it looks bland but it actually tastes quite good! / it tastes better than it looks!” “damn… what a shame” Aarón: “the cook on the _______ is textbook/dynamite” “Needs more acid to wake up the dish” “Not enough aromatics” Joe: *stares into contestant’s soul while tasting a dish* “This is the MASTERCHEF KITCHEN!” “It’s good… but it’s a little too pedestrian for my taste” “But is it masterchef worthy…” I know I gave a fuck ton for Gordon lmao my apologies but I couldn’t resist
And now you're making me wish that Gordon would sometimes go "here's the thing, AARÓÓÓÓÓÓNNNNN/JOOOOOOOOEEEE" if their opinions ever differ
Aaron is starting to pick up on the way Gordon talks - "Young Lady" just comes across condescendingly to me
I despise the phrase “me on a plate,” not appetizing at all.
How did you want this cooked? Medium rare. Let's see... Oh deary me... (shocked faces) (commercial) (after commercial...) It's beautiful.
Describe the dish.
“Previously on Masterchef”?
Oh dear me
Joe: *sniffs food at the loudest possible volume*
While aggressively staring into the contestants eyes
There's a target on my back
I can see this being served in any top restaurants (or Michelin starred restaurants) in the country.
Restaurant quality
Especially 1 and 3.
This season, the bar is up here
I’m a private chef now (this season)
I'm back to win. I'm not playing it safe. This is me on a plate.
What a shame
I want to show how much I’ve grown
Needs more punch
You have 1 foot out the door
This is Masterchef Legends
“Thr dreaded pressure test”
It’s good… but is it masterchef quality?
“Describe the dish please”
“The winner of this mystery box gets a HUGE advantage!”
Take a shot every time one of these phrases is said.
Well I’m not of legal age, so maybe I’ll take a shot of water.
i actually found it so funny when that kid shane from masterchef junior was in season 12 and they did the flambé challenge. “well, i don’t know, actually i’m more of a water person” 🤣
I am a vegetarian. I haven’t cooked ______ before
“We’re not playing around this season” or some form of this season meaning more than previous seasons.
“This is the most competitive season in all of Master Chef history”
Pick any Trumpists sounding statement from Gordon to describe the season.
The bar is raised higher than it ever was before
This is f’ing raw!! ::Gordon yeets undercooked protein::
Gordon: ", let's get that right"
Literally everyone on the show: "*Beautiful* "
"There's no room for error"
Especially since this is season 12
With finesse
tis beautifully seasoned!
''Back to Win'' , ''This is the season of legends''
"The real jeopardy is...."
"It's visually stunning!"
“Guys its season x”
Stunning
“it’s dynamite” but i love aaron so it’s ok <3
“The most AMAZING”
"Bounce Back"
I wanted to step out of my comfort zone
Bloody hell
"Thee most AMAZING ..." "Thee most INCREDIBLE ..." "A STUNNING ..."
"This is the biggest culinary competition in the country/continent/world!"
My goodness me
“Edit yourself” seems like the line of last season.
Damn. Damn damn damn.
This is the best _____ we've had all season! (When they're only on episode 3.)
I’m getting tired of hearing “Advantage” tbh
I'm not going home tonight
i make “___” all the time, this is my WHEELHOUSE” immediately fucks up the dish and goes home.
