Ted Allen’s secret to a perfect roast
Ted Allen from Top Chef gives a fun, thorough and easy-to-follow video on how to cook a bone-in-shoulder. “The secret,” he says, “is to cook it long and slow.” It’s worth the wait. That roast looks heavenly!

He recently guested on Top Chef, and granted an excellent one on one interview with his comments on each Top Chef contestant.
