Professional chef Jesse Szewczyk and home cook Lorenzo are swapping ingredients and hitting the kitchen to make a pot roast. We set Lorenzo up with a whopping $246 worth of ingredients for his attempt at Jesse’s pro recipe. Meanwhile, a modest $29 worth of ingredients was sent back the other way to be elevated into something gourmet by our esteemed pro. Will Lorenzo be able to execute the restaurant-quality pot roast Jesse intended to make? Can Jesse transform Lorenzo’s humble ingredients into something spectacular?

Chef Jesse is such a amazing chef! I feel I can make both!
Welcome back Lorenzo!
Too much sodium!
The charred onion skin broth was revolutionary!
I really like Chef Jesse, he gave full instructions in his recipe, was very kind, didn't like, cheat and add anything that Lorenzo hadn't put there, and was really creative with his use of ingredients
I’m glad lorenzo is well! We missed you!
Welcome back Lorenzo!!! <3
Hey it's Jesse! That guy who made all those celebrity chef recipe videos on Tasty a while back!
Welcome back Lorenzo!
so happy to see lorenzo doing well!!
European here, why does your vegetables cost so much money ? :O In France the cost would be halved, i'm especially surprised about the potatoes, we have them for less than 1$ the bag here :O
Love the videos tho, I suscribed the chef ideas are amazing !
Now a days no one can afford meat especially if it's a roast. The cost now in my state is between 18-27 dollars depending on the pounds.
I am always here for chef Saul Chef John And Lorenzo
