We’re Cookin’ with Bigfoot!

Bigfoot has finally been captured, but instead of being treated with dignity and respect, he is immediately employed as the host of a gimmick cooking show on the Food Network.

Only one problem: Bigfoot can’t cook! Canceling the show is not an option, since Bigfoot is under contract for the next five years. You’re called in as a consultant to try to save the day.

What advice do you give? What savory yet simple recipes should Bigfoot try?

grilled cheese sandwich, mac and cheese, hot dogs, send bigfoot to cooking school.

I think that bigfoot should start with the basics. The theme of the show could be “learning to cook along with bigfoot.”

Start out with boiling water, toasting bread, and peeling apples. As bigfoot learns to cook the difficulty level would increase.

Good luck bigfoot.

Bigfoot should play from his strength–his big feet. Therefore, he should press grapes for wine and be a vintner. Alternatively, for those who don’t drink, he could stomp apples for cider.

I think that bigfoot should stick with Salads. He’s got lots of experience with greenery out there and could probably share some fun ideas for how to eat what’s growing naturally in our own backyards.

Have him cook with a hot blonde in a bikini. Nobody would care about bigfoot

Ashley 11.29.08 at 12:33 pm

we should create a new show cooking school and have him team up with rachel ray to try to teach big foot how to cook and he could show rachel how he survives in the wild. what he cooks to feed himself. LOL

Bigfoot should have guests from other food network shows like Rachael Ray and he should teach them how to live off the land as bigfoot has for so many years. He can make the guests eat bugs and twigs and leaves!

I would say first that he would need a giant suit of a hair net… then I would let him cook from the woods… fish and berries… we might need a translator.

Guy 11.29.08 at 2:26 pm

Pasta, with bolognese sauce, just remember to take the pasta OUT of the plastic bag before cooking it, and make sure the sauce you buy is a decent brand :)

Amber 11.29.08 at 8:02 pm

I think big foot should just get a pack of that beef jerky that they’re always jerkin him around about! Open it up and wah lah! food to eat!

Nicole 11.30.08 at 9:25 am

Bigfoot should stick with things you can’t screw up, like smores, grits and mac and cheese!

sacha 11.30.08 at 5:46 pm

my advice would be to put on a big apron, pull his hair back into one big ponytail and have him make his specialty.. chocolate covered bugs and twig pie a la mode!

renee 12.01.08 at 7:41 am

let big foot find his way on tv, in front of everyone, let us see mistakes, that’s how we learn

Darwin 12.03.08 at 12:51 pm

He should have a cooking for children and name the dishes after things he had eaten in the wild such as celery with peanut butter with raisans and call it “ants on a log.” Kids would love it

CubbyKatz 12.03.08 at 10:30 pm

Bigfoot shouldn’t be the one doing the actual cooking, rather he should have an assistant who would really take over the show and do all the instructions as we watch Bigfoot attempt to complete them.

bizzle 12.04.08 at 4:51 pm

I think the show should travel around with Bigfoot as he encounters food from around the country and learns to make it with some chef. Then he could give the wilderness equivalent, like lasagna could be two raccoons with twigs in between.

connie 12.04.08 at 5:32 pm

Get him in an Iron Chef competition and watch those other chefs cower in fear as he tries his hand at recipes with the secret ingredient of: FIRE!!!

Fran 12.05.08 at 12:41 am

Big Foot has survived by his wits for so long and from his size has learned how to cook and eat in the wild, so I think his show should be called ‘Wild Thing’ and should feature game and food from the woods. I’ll just bet that with that figure he has a whole lot of dessert recipes to share. He should do a show that teaches Boy Scouts and Girls Scouts and weekend hikers how to not only survive but thrive in the wild!

fg 12.06.08 at 6:18 am

Big foot should boil some water and toss it on the producer who was dumb enough to put him on the show.

Nik 12.06.08 at 8:14 am

Why not have him cook things that he would have eaten in the wild like squirrel on a stick.

SEDIT 12.08.08 at 8:27 am

Why not give him flashcards, a wooded setting, and just let him do what he usually does – Run from tree to tree. It would be up to us to spot him and read the steps. Big fun!

Jaice 12.08.08 at 9:13 am

I think Bigfoot could start off by using his big hands or feet to mash potatoes. With gloves on mind you lol.

Lucy 12.08.08 at 3:42 pm

I believe bigfoot should prepare a gourmet meal and sell the plates for 1000.00 each and contribute the money to PETA.Thanks!

HCC 12.08.08 at 7:55 pm

I would turn it into a bit of a reality show and have a different star chef (TV or otherwise) on every week to teach bigfoot a new dish.

I’d also have him make mud pie, seems like it would be right up his alley.

Captain Cool 12.08.08 at 9:28 pm

Bigfoot should start cooking Italian dishes as they are very easy to cook. No need to use any brains for that……lol

Courtney 12.09.08 at 8:07 pm

Even big foot could make mac & cheese with hot dog octopi! Have him cook it- the kids will love it and bigfoot will be the next hannah montana!
