Welcome back for episode 88 of It's Alive with Brad Leone where this week our man with the plan sets out to pickle peppers.

Chef Bobby Flay teaches amateur cook Shane how to make chile relleno (aka stuffed poblano peppers) using audio instructions only - no visuals whatsoever. Facing away from each other, back-to-back, these two men quickly progress through the chile relleno recipe. As Flay barks out directions, Shane scrambles to follow.
