    Take the Alton Brown Quiz

    Our good food (ahem - "Good Eats") friend Alton Brown is going on another live stage show tour, and as such has posted a qualifying culinary quiz on his website as he looks for on-stage participants in each city. Most of the questions surround his various TV shows and appearances, but there may be some general culinary knowledge questions as well.

    How well can YOU do on his quiz? (I zipped through and had to guess at a number of Qs, so I only got 55% - definitely an "F" on the "ya gotta score more than 60% to get a D grade" criteria)

      I couldn't see any pics of things that said "as shown here" so had to do a WAG. The only ones I was confident in was Wellington and the searing myth. I guess I can't cook. Life goes on.

                  45% It seemed like the questions were heavily slanted to find the most ardent AB fans as opposed to identifying those with a strong background in cooking, grilling, smoking, etc. Not surprising, really …

                        45% I guess I'm just not an AB junkie. Ah well, life goes on.

                          45% I like AB but many questions were irrelevant to cooking
