Binging with Babish: Clay-Roasted Thigh from Hannibal (feat. You Suck at Cooking)

The history of eating one's fellow man is rich with culinary tradition and innovation, carried on in no small part by Dr. Hannibal Lecter. In this pivotal scene, he gives a fellow killer a taste of his own medicine, so to speak - if, at the time, he had medicine in his bloodstream, because he's eating his own leg. So to speak. Celebrate Halloween in style with this traditional clay-baked entrée with a little help from FoodTube's favorite mystery man, You Suck at Cooking.

My first cookbook, Eat What You Watch, is available now in stores and online!

Featuring You Suck at Cooking

“we are cooking with not only human remains but with clay... now i’ve never cooked with clay before”

[kaiaruliffson]

Hannibal is truly a monster. Cooking meat without salt and pepper? Bone chilling.

[devilette]

He doesn't salt the thigh because human meat is already really salty

[dankedoutmemes]

"Pork tastes most like human"
Oh, that's what pork tastes like!

[WarlordRising]

Surprised there's not more Hannibal inspired dishes on here. That show was the creme de la creme of cuisine on TV, and the antagonist/protagonist often broke down his ingredients in excruciating (both literal and figurative) detail.

[TrikSeSpicatymKloboukem]

Fun fact: Human meat is already pretty salty, hence why he didn't salt the meat

[mal_em]

wow cant believe Hannibal didn’t generously sprinkle both sides of the human thigh with seasoning. im appalled

[herny]

Babish: “Where we’re cooking not only with human remains but with clay, two very challenging mediums. Now I’ve never cooked with clay before...”
Me: Something’s wrong, I can feel it

[SmittenKitten.]

The last time I tried cooking some sweet human flesh, the guy kept screaming about the oven being "too warm" for his liking. What a baby.

[kylerharris]

Remember kids, thicc thighs save lives.

[TheDinosaur]

If I remember correctly, Janice Poon, the food stylist of Hannibal, mentioned in her connoisseur book that you could use foil instead of the green lotus leaves.

[thomrik]

So, i heard you're having a friend for dinner...

"The tragedy is not to die, but to be wasted"
-Hannibal Lector

[aoki]

i'm so disappointed babish didn't say *pepper pepper pepper*

[jackcariolo]

There are so many quality cannibalism jokes here

[rizu]

i saw the title on my recommended and it said this
"Binging with Babish: Clay-Roasted Thigh from Hannibal (feat. You"


me: uhhh... *checks if i still have legs*

[ezekielleveriza]

2:59 “pork is the meat that taste most human”


Who exactly is your source...

[jonathonlopez]

Gives "You lookin like a snack" a whole new meaning

[gentlesandladymen]

I wonder how many people who haven’t seen the show know that in the clip from the beginning Hannibal was feeding Able his own thigh.

[Ravilaaaa]

Thighs? Ah, I see you’re a man of culture as well.
