Brian Malarkey ranks his Top 3 wildest Cutthroat Kitchen sabotages

In a recent Instagram Reel, Brian Malarkey listed the three most chaotic tasks ever given to contestants, complete with culinary pandemonium and inventive sabotage. This is what qualified for the Cutthroat Kitchen: Knives Out top tier.

Board of impossible ingredients

Third place goes to the renowned Board of Impossible Ingredients. In order to identify their protein, competitors drop a puck onto a board; they are unaware of who will be cooking with what in advance. The ingredients were rather odd, ranging from chicken liver to bull tongue. This uncertainty forces instant menu reinvention and spices up the entire round with unpredictable drama.

Cutthroat chalet in the Alps

The Cutthroat Chalet, which comes in at number two, puts chefs up against a setting as frigid as their rivals. Contestants had to hurry to defrost ingredients before the timer went off because the entire pantry and water system were frozen solid, and there was only one communal burner, oven, and fryer. It was a test of endurance, ingenuity, and pure willpower as you battled below-freezing temperatures in a cramped workspace.

Cutthroat Airlines

Malarkey's gold standard for pandemonium, the notorious Cutthroat Airlines task, sits at the top of the list. With the galley's small appliances providing heat, chefs had thirty minutes to produce a first-class meal using only economy bar snacks. How was it made even more ridiculous? Because metal utensils are prohibited, competitors are forced to chop, stir, and plate using plastic cutlery. It is the pinnacle of Cutthroat survival abilities and pure culinary ludicrousness.

These three challenges collectively represent the unpredictability of chaos. Knives Out is renowned for its ruthless kitchen. Every rated sabotage, from leaking discs on boards to frozen pantries and economic snacks cooking, exemplifies a distinct kind of ruthless inventiveness.
