Maybe I am imagining things but am I the only one who saw Ed smoking his ribs before using the grill for finishing? They even showed where some of the fire had escaped the smoker and melted one of the tires of his mobile smoker.
Flay asked how long he cooked his ribs and Ed replied with "20 minutes a side" or whatever. To me(having seen this twice) this was a "NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS" reply which I am sure at least one of us has used in competition before.
