With a tear in our eyes, we must announce the end of Spam Week – and it’s been great. This episode we’re calling the ‘Solocast’, because with Max & Lynn taking the day off, Sam is all alone making Chipotle Spam Balls. And in the interest of everything that’s right in the world, we have to ask – “does mankind need something called Chipotle Spam Balls? Good question – guess you’ll have to just watch and see…

Well, apparently you people really like spam! We have been getting a great response from everybody after the last show and we just want to thank you all for spreading the word about the Livecast. After dicing the spam last week and tossing it into a pan, this week Sam sliced off little patties of the spam and proceeded to give them so color in a hot grill pan. After doing the same thing with some pineapple slices and warming a little hawaiian roll (heat changes things), we we’re ready to put together our perfect little bites of hawaiian heaven – don’t forget the teriyaki mayo!

We also managed to catch up on the latest installment in the Paula Dean controversy, chatted about the upcoming MasterChef episode, highlighted some viewer comments and wrapped up with the top ten list of highest paid chefs in the industry. Next up is MasterChef Friday’s – we’ve got something special planned so be sure not to miss.

Every once in a while Sam decides that he’d like to get everybody eating something completely different than what they normally do – this is one of those weeks. Have you ever tried Spam, the mystery meat delicacy that has been going strong since 1937? Either way you’ll be wanting to eat some soon with these new recipes that come together as Spam Week. We start with these Spam and Rice Baked Eggs – just sit back and watch the magic.

The finale of Tequila Week converges with MasterChef Friday’s to create one epic episode, packed with behind the scenes discussion from not one, but three of the final 11 competitors of MasterChef season 4. Lynn brought along friends from the show, Savannah and Natasha, and after some lively conversation about the recent episode we managed to get the girls in the kitchen for our very own mystery box challenge. If there was ever any doubt – these girls can cook!

We follow up the Tequila Week Sangrita with another unique and delicious recipe, of course using tequila. After throwing some shrimp in a pan and giving them some color, Sam splashed about a cup of tequila on top of the shrimp, igniting the pan and giving the shrimp and infusing the shrimp with the flavors of the tequila. Once the flames burned down we took the shrimp off the heat, where Sam then added greek yogurt and chipotle to add even more flavor to the dish.

And what would the Livecast be without discussion about the recent Paula Dean developments and what we can expect on the upcoming MasterChef with @MC4Lynn. Don’t miss MasterChef Friday’s where we get on the behind the scenes info on the recent episode.
