I dropped out of high school. I really had no interest in doing any school work whatsoever.
Bobby Flay
I think New York has the most diverse and best quality representation of so many different cuisines at all levels.
Bobby Flay
I think people are intimidated by grilling .. maybe it's the flame, maybe it's the big grills, maybe they've had some bad childhood experiences .. but I think that grilling is actually the easiest technique in cooking.

I love working with big flavors like chiles and smoke. Honey is perfect for softening the edges, mellowing them out a bit. I put it in everything - vinaigrettes, soups, stocks, salsas, so I'm always on the hunt for great honey.

Bobby Flay
Cook ingredients that you are used to cooking by other techniques, such as fish, chicken, or hamburgers. In other words be comfortable with the ingredients you are using.

I want to go to college and go back to Georgetown. It's a really cool place.

A molcajete is a stone mortar and pestle from Mexico. They're great for grinding spices and making salsa and guacamole because they give everything a nice coarse and rustic feel. I've never collected anything, but I think I might start collecting these because each one is decorated differently.
Bobby Flay
I spend 80% of my time in my restaurants. Taping my TV shows doesn't take much time, and then they get aired a lot. That's the thing people don't realize.
Bobby Flay
Charcoal or gas. Both give excellent results, so choose the one that best suits your style of cooking.
Bobby Flay
I don't have a long family history of good cooks in my family.

Grilling outside with my parents at the Jersey shore. We would grill lobster and corn in the summer.
