I dont have a long family history of good cooks in my family. – Bobby Flay
The Food Network was just starting in New York, and I was getting lots of attention from Mesa Grill. They had no money, so if you couldnt get there by subway, you couldnt be on. It wasnt like TV was something I really wanted to do – but I knew it would be great publicity for my restaurants. – Bobby Flay
Habaneros have a great fruity flavor, but the challenge is that you have to deflect the heat in order to taste the flavor. If you dont, youre dead. They should really have a warning sign on them. Deflect the habaneros heat by pairing it with sweet food. – Bobby Flay
Obviously, the easiest recipes are the most successful when it comes to the home cook, because theyre not intimidated by them. If Im doing Boy Meets Grill, and I do something very simple like grilled hamburgers or steaks or chicken, those are the most sought-after recipes. – Bobby Flay
