As details about The Next Iron Chef begin to emerge, we're realizing it's a good thing that Batali doesn't have to compete, seeing as how Iron Chefs apparently require sprinting: "The first competition is a 15-minute sprint to test prep skills. Teams of four chefs in a gym have to debone a chicken, french a rack of lamb, fillet a salmon, and prepare three other ingredients expertly ... Then the eight chefs have to prepare two desserts in 90 minutes, too -- without using sugar, butter or cheese." [Super Chef]
