19 Times Gordon Ramsay Was Absolutely Brutal But Also Hilarious On "Hell's Kitchen"

In my opinion, this TV series is by far Gordon Ramsay's most stressful show to ever exist, and one that makes me count my lucky stars that I have gotten this far in life with no desire to ever try to perfect scallops.

Peacock has graced us TV lovers with 19 whole seasons of the show, so you can binge-watch your way into the kitchen (or in my case, away from it!).

From Ramsay's screaming rants to bowing down in despair, let's get to it...

I mean, we may not all agree with Ramsay's methods, but we can all agree that Raj was definitely planted in the show for the comedy factor...right, right?!

In this moment, Ramsay has no idea why Raj is adding a watery sauce to the salmon dish. Upon trying it, he spits it out, pours the dish onto the counter, and then later proceeds to punch the plate of salmon with his hands and absolutely obliterate it. "IT'S RAW. IT'S F**KING RAW". Dead.

It's time for some raw food again, woo!

In this classic clip, our potty-mouthed chef has had enough of being served raw food. After complaining to the heavens and shouting until he is blue in the face, he finally caves and sends Sabrina packing to another room (that's after he accused her of sabotaging). The catch? He's told her to eat up the raw food she keeps on trying to serve.

Is it karma at its finest or is it an angry moment gone too far? Either way, it's absolutely hilarious to watch. Sorry for admitting that!

Just when you think it couldn't get any worse, Chef Ramsay gives up on all the hope he has and completely storms out of the Hell's Kitchen building, leaving the teams in the lurk.

My favorite part? I just love how he takes Scott with him, with barely a few words of convincing needed.

If there's anything we've learned from Hell's Kitchen, it's to 1) don't undercook scallops, 2) don't burn the meat, 3) avoid lying, and 4) definitely do not give an over-ambitious answer to the Chef.

In this highlight of mine, Joy makes a risky choice to tell Ramsay she can cook a lobster in 45 seconds. In the height of pettiness, Ramsay pulls out his watch and times her for the duration...only to watch her fail as expected.

A true petty hero.

When presented with what looks like a microwaved pancake, Gordon Ramsay couldn't help but laugh his way through the testing. 

This is one of the few instances where the brutality doesn't come from the swearing, but from the pure nature of the fact he can't hold his giggles and refers to the sweet treat as something you'd have after an ulcer operation. That's gotta sting.

In perhaps one of the most fiery ever moments to keep escalating, Ramsay takes it as far as to fire Josh on the spot. 

But the reason I can never stop laughing at the clip is because Ramsay literally tells Josh to leave, then as Josh is walking out of the door, Ramsay calls back with a, "Hey, you," to which Josh turns around, only to be told to get out again. You just couldn't write this stuff!!

Also, I don't think I've ever seen anyone whisper-shout before with their hands clapped around their mouth with such ferocity...it's a talent. One thing I will say though, is hats off to Josh for dealing with it like a champ in this moment.

By this point, I'm sure that Ramsay is out here representing my daily inner thoughts because this clip had me howling!!

How can one man go from, "Why's he put the lettuce in like that" to "You're so sh*t you don't even realize what you are doing," all the way to actually calling someone a dirty pig. How, please, how?! 

Okay, so another favorite of mine is when Raj messes up the scrambled egg.

Gordon takes one bite and gathers everyone around the counter, incessantly saying taste it, until he looks like he is going to cry as he screams out that there's "not an OUNCE of seasoning." Clearly riled up, things only get worse and it seems Ramsay is gunning for Raj, who still seems unbothered in the VT clips.

It's just the way this scene goes from 0–100 for me. Absolute carnage and absolutely brutal.

Did you see that one coming, though?!

Oh, I told you I love it when he bites back at a rude customer, and I bet this guy didn't see Ramsay's intimate offer coming a mile off. Legendary.

Right, here me out, the more you watch this clip, the more it looks like Ramsay was made to be a walking meme.

I'm picturing T-shirts with his face on against the captions of "I've had enough now, stop LYING to me," and motivational posters of a screaming Ramsay with the slogan, "Work together." It's a vibe, trust me.
