This dude is living the dream as a chef. Probably an awesome salary, incredible facilities at his disposal, the best ingredients…so jealous. That rational is the best kitchen tool ever also.

Now do the New Orleans Pelicans chef so I can see what he’s been feeding Zion 🤣

[Yeezyisback]

please keep up these kind of videos, super interesting to watch and learn what goes on behind and scenes!

[jakemanson]

This chef is dope as hell😂😂 I love this dude

[deanbartlett]

Should do this with other NBA teams and other American sports teams! Very interesting to watch

[Playwithdeutschland]

I love how the chef shouted out his whole team

[hubertbryant]

7:30 straight up killed me 😭😭😭 “can we add a PINCH of salt”🧂

This is absolutely incredible to see. For the most part, I think we understand that the athletes get fed. But this gives us a thorough glimpse of what it takes to feed, fuel, snacks, individual nutrition, and goals of the players. It also helps me understand even more, how much money these NBA teams bring in. It is almost unfortunate that the common Joe Schmo, will never get to experience something like this.

I appreciate these looks behind the scenes into the Sports Culinary world and honoring the Chefs and dieticians that make the kitchen portion tick. Shawn seemed like he really appreciated his role in the Org. Eating is a 168 hour a week component of the game!

Black dude tells the NBA, Million Dollar white chef...."Can we add a pinch of salt??"...BY FAR, THE BEST LINE OF WHOLE VIDEO ..🤣🤣🤣🤣

[srve]

This guy deserves his position and his success. Keep the great dishes coming my guy!

[icr]

Always interesting to watch! Can you do the Utes facility next?

[Ecojock]

The chef thanking everyone was pure class.

[GoldenIrishPaws]

These behind the scenes videos of professional organizations are addicting!!!!

If you haven't watch "24 Hours to Kickoff"

[spjr]

I feel bad for this guy. He works so hard every night to feed the Pistons and they go out there every night and stink up the court. If they worked half as hard as he does, they'd be in the playoffs right now

This is so informative. Love the creative content!!

[nicksacco]

All of this variety in food, and yet the Pistons still choose to eat L’s

[anasshahid]

My favorite channel on YouTube, keep the content coming 🙌

[TheDuckofLaw]

Thanks for the video. I love these behind the scenes peeks into the life of the folks that help keep it all running at a high level. Good stuff!
