We challenged chefs of three different skill levels – an amateur, a home cook, and a professional – to make a pot of chili. Once each was simmered to perfection, we asked a food scientist to review their work. Whose chili earned top marks? Find out on this episode of 4 Levels.

Havent watched this channel in awhile. Emily growth is so amazing. I feel like a proud uncle seeing her not need tomatoe sauce on top of the chilli 😂😅
Wtf is a “chuck”
My favorite chili is white bean chicken chili ❤ served with lime tortilla chips
Rose is the quintessential 😇😇
I'm sorry, but seafood chili sounds absolutely disgusting.
I love me a white chicken chili I wish someone woulda done that it’s the best kind
As a native Marylander, seeing Chris whip out that blue crab made me shed a tear of joy
"Sear the meat and lock in the juices" food science is > common but wrong sayings.
F for poor crab that got viciously sliced in half alive 😢
I thought Lorenzo said “ if you haven’t smoked chilli powder go for it “ 😅 3:42
I'm not a big fan of the bitter earthiness of beans, so I was surprised they didn't do much on that front. I sort of thought they might mention a pre-soak involving a pinch of baking soda and some spices, to make the beans less bitter and more flavorful.
I love all 3 of there reactions when there finished.
All 3 looks gross
no.
rip poor crabby
I couldn’t get past cutting a live animal in half and throwing it and it’s guts into the chilli 🤢
The expert level did not make chili. He made a bad chilli and a bad gumbo.
I'm always incredibly unimpressed with the expert chefs. He didn't make chili he made a bad gumbo
Chili not made in a crockpot isn't chili.
Chris’s dish is interesting, but I’ve never really like white bean chilies. Honestly I think any Louisiana or Caribbean seafood stew would taste better using a lot of the same ingredients.
Chris is so handsome 👁👁
You lost me at Seafood Chilli you freak.
GASP! Real chili does not contain beans.
Help the level 3 chef said cojita instead of cotija ahshdkfk
I closed the video when I heard "Seafood Chili".
If I get invited to have chili at my friend's house and they say "I made a seafood chili with shrimp and scallops!" I'm punching them in the face and walking out
How can we get Lorenzo’s recipe?
cioppino!
Turkey and seafood chilli is not chilli it’s woke nonsense
LORENZO IS A LEVEL 2 CHEF <3 WOOOOOOOOOO
I would love some of that delicious seafood chili
Does no one know how to make a traditional chili? No tha ks to any of these 0 level chilis.
Chili con carne has NO beans. Beans are not allowed in competition chilis. No beans in chili!
Update, Emily is now a Level 2 chef. She’s been hanging out with Frank and he’s been teaching her. We are proud of you Emily, you’ve come a long way.
It's not the same without the commentators.
