I watched it yesterday, and..... meh.
The 'cook this thing as fast as possible' format is getting way overdone. Also, it seemed weird that Tuffy Stone is a contestant, and not a judge or something. Same thing with Lee Ann Whippen; why isn't she judging or something?
There is a lady from Utah on, Susie Bulloch, and to be honest, I'm not what her qualifications are. Not that it matters really. Not trying to be cynical, but I am surprised she made it past the first round.
EDIT: Also, the title of the show is BBQ Brawl: Flay V. Symon. Granted there has only been the one episode, but there has been minimal Flay vs. Symon, and it doesn't seem like there will be very much more.
