Below Deck Recap: There’s No Crying In Yachting

November 9, 2020 by tamaratattles 38 Comments

Below Deck RecapYou guys! I have gone from feeling badly about getting up at 2 or 3 pm to having a problem waking up in time to recap shows during prime time. It’s not healthy to sleep through all the daylight. I just can’t seem to straighten out my sleep schedule! ARGH. At least tonight is Below Deck recap night. I’m ready for some Captain Lee! I also forgot to take the trash out and just did that. And y’all it is pitch black dark out there! Like you can’t see your hand in front of your face. I’m blathering because I am somehow ready to go early. Okay, now I am late because I was listening to The Voice and then got in a HUGE AND VERY IMPORTANT TWITTER WAR! You should not answer the question (dressing or stuffing) because I will totally ban all the stuffing idiots! Now am hungry!

An International Feast

Sorry, that needed to be said, now back to the show. But someone even said Stovetop stuffing? WTF has happened to the world? Okay, focusing now. Oh yes, the asshole guests from hell. And the motley deck crew dwindled. This is going to be chaos. The only guy who knew what he was doing is gone. The rest are idiots. And the stews are all awful. Captain Lee calls a crew meeting to encourage everyone to try to kill it on this charter. The chef has been asked to do a tasting menu from multiple countries. The crew is being a PITA about their luggage not being unpacked. It’s like we have a bunch of Ramona’s as guests.

It seems that Izzy wants to change to deckhand. I think it is Izzy. This is a very strange charter. And Captain Lee’s pants have gone missing. Ah! The pants have been found! Each course has a different rule from each country. The stews are also doing turndowns during service? The asshole guests start going to the kitchen “to help” the chef. Why does one of the guests have some sort of headset on? These charter guests are a nightmare. Francesca is crying in her room when Captain Lee calls her to the bridge. She can’t stop crying. Captain Lee is not amused. You know he must be missing Kate right about now.

Below Deck RecapDay Two: Second Verse, Same As The First

The guests are still awful. Their breakfast orders are insane. Eight types of omelets, plus all sorts of weird toast orders. The chef is pissed. One guest ordered avocado toast and sent it back because it had guacamole. Really? Half the omelettes were sent back. The chef is losing it. It’s one of the bitches birthday. She wants to take a body shot off of James. And he is fine with it. He actually loves all the attention. So, James my save the tip. It’s time for a picnic on the beach.

Shane is in the ocean swimming with no shirt. Captain Lee may just drown him. It wouldn’t be a huge loss. I need to get through this recap on time so I can tape The Good Doctor and The Weakest Link. For some damn reason this show is taking up two hours of prime real estate. I presume WWHL and Bravo Chat have been tacked on and it is infuriating. Meanwhile, It’s Carnival night on the boat. I wish I had crab legs!  But, sadly, it is a tater tot night tonight. It looks like Izzy is going to move to the deck. Meanwhile, James has to come out in a glittery banana hammock. Somehow, two of the guests are in a huge fight over James. Seriously?

I can’t believe we have a third episode of this. Meanwhile, one of the girls had a hissy fit and went to her cabin. She is literally breaking up with her BFF over James. Next week Izzy is checked out and ready to move to the deck! And we finally get some twenty somethings on the charter. And Shane continues to be awful.

    I’m not so sure anything else could go wrong. Like this is the worst of everything all at once. Sadly the chef who seems to make amazing food seems to be a nut case if what Eddie said in last weeks wwhl. These guests are awful.

    I made dressing a few nights ago as a side. It was from the box. But I am in the weird minority because I like my dressing on the dry side. The only people I have ever known to make homemade dressing are over 50, because it takes that long to perfect it. I think it’s really hard to make.

      Well you start with cornbread. And if you have never made that, you should just give up…,

        You start with cornbread if you’re from the South. Cornbread “stuffing” is not the “go to” in the Northeast. And it’s “stuffing” if it’s cooked in the bird and “dressing” if it’s cooked on the side. I suppose I will now await banning.

          Yes, I grew up on sage dressing, using bread. I’ve lived in Texas for40 years and love cornbread dressing–and I make it from scratch. It’s delicious!

          I do agree that the base should be cornbread. Oh crap, I am going to cry again. I hope you all have a lovely evening and, thank you. I appreciate and love every single person that is reading my post. Good night, good luck, and you are loved.

            Well, of course, it is dressing, made with cornbread, and the easiest thing of the entire meal to make. Turkey, dressing and gravy can be made in my sleep. And trust me it is damn good. The other sides are all the work. And yes, I’m from the south, learned at my grandmother’s knee and over 50. The holy trinity of good thanksgiving meals. Anybody have custard for dessert?

    Holy shit! These guests are just the definition of entitled assholes. So demanding and wanting it RIGHT NOW! “Why am I waiting 5 minutes for a 16 ingredient omelette?” I’d like to think they are appalled by their behavior when they see it but I’m sure they think they’re funny. “Look how we make the monkeys dance!” Hard to give 7 star service with guests like that. And I’m not gonna beat up on Francesca for crying. That was a long ass day for her esp. with having to only one real stew working with her. Not fond of Izzy. Has there been one moment where she HASN’T complained? Rachel’s food does look amazing. She looks to be a piece of work tho.

    And it’s dressing.

    this is why i watch Longmire instead of Below Deck.

    a box of stovetop herb stuffing will be greatly improved with some fresh, chopped celery and parsley. stuffed into a pork chop or a roulade or served as a side – good eats.

    This was def. a crazy episode. The chef does seem to be excellent, I felt bad when she had to make the omelets because she didn’t have the proper pan so trying to make them in a normal fry pan would be difficult when you are used to perfection. Eddie is the only castmate that I recognize which I’m quite happy about, all the others were about hooking up, breaking up, fighting amongst eachother, on this one we just have a few emotional ones, and one who can’t seem to keep his shirt on and out of the water, but I’d likely want to dive into the beautiful waters they are in, but work is work. The guests are just plain nuts, fighting over James, what, why how, it was making my head spin. Unpacking their luggage, seriously, that is bat shit crazy, first if i was a guest, I would not want the crew unpacking my personal shit, and if I was the crew I wouldn’t want to be touching, going through the guests personal shit. Lastly, It’s def. stuffing if it goes in the bird, (that’s obvious) and it’s dressing if it goes on the outside of the bird. (dressing=like clothing goes on the outside of the body, obviously) also as above mentioned stovetop, and what is it actually called??? Stovetop Stuffing not Stovetop Dressing, another obvious, it’s not even worth the debate or argument. It’s easy peasy. I wish I hadn’t already had our thanksgiving, because now I’m wanting turkey/cranberry sauce and of course the stuffing. lol Enjoy, and thanks as always for the recap TT.

      I’m with you but think stuffing is a northern thing, dressing southern. My family always called it stuffing everything either inside or outside the bird. But all is delicious made the right way!

    I always made my classic dressing (never stuffing) with homemade cornbread and I’m not southern. I’ve now also made it from focaccia with apples and sausage. That’s really tasty, too.

      I second that. I need a new one to try ! Calling all friends here @ T.Tattles for cornbread based dressing. Mine is always made from freshly baked seeded italian scalli white bread & I would like to have the cornbread experience! Help a yankee out !

        I always have to call my sister for the recipe. Step one is to make cornbread. Then you leave some white bread out to get dry. You can also add crushed saltines (I usually skip that part). cook some celery and onion in butter on the stove. (add an egg or two, I always skips this part)add sage, poultry seasoning, salt and pepper… add some chicken broth until just on the wet side. Bake for about an hour on 350.

        I am probably forgetting stuff I just taste as I go until it tastes right, so I’m not much help.

    This Charlie dude (the primary) I believe that’s his name is the most condescending twit in charter history. He’s a real ahole. He goes on Twitter and said that he was told to act that way by the producers!! It’s good for TV! You can’t make this sh_t up. LMAO ? ??
    I couldn’t believe that these grown ass women were fighting over an employee. Have they no shame!!! WOW!!
    THANKSGIVING: Our tradition at my family is cooking ground beef with green peppers, onions, celery, Spanish spices, more veggies & tomato based sauces slowly. We add croutons & when cooked and cool we stuff our bird! There’s more but you get the idea. My family background is from Puerto Rico ??!
    I don’t live there but I have lots of family there that love it. They moved there years ago. Peace ?

    These guests cannot be for real. It just felt way too over the top to me. Why do all these shows have to keep trying harder and harder to piss us all off. Do they want to get canceled cuz we won’t watch if this shit continues. Izzy bugs me. Shane is a typical So Cal spoiled, entitled pos. Forget the damn straws already. Paper straws disintegrate. Love Captain Lee tho. It’s called stuffing from Chicago where I grew up before it became a boarded up looters paradise shit hole. Nobody called it dressing. I make my own from scratch but have used boxed and just added more stuff. Thanks for recap TT.

    I am yankee by birth but southern by the grace of God. My MIL makes cornbread dressing with celery, onions, mushrooms and either sausage or, if she can get very good ones, oysters. She also uses fresh herbs, heavy on the sage and parsley. Chicken stock, one or two eggs to bind and a ton of butter. My mama made stuffing, leaving the loaves of white bread out to go stalemate no protein. Other than that, the recipes were basically the same. My mama made do with dried herbs as she didn’t have access to a family farm like my MIL did. I do my MIL’s recipe. This year I am on keto so I have to change it up. I plan on using the ALDI zero carb bread instead of cornbread :(. I will also make my own cranberry sauce keto style. You just can’t have TG dinner or make a leftover sandwich without dressing and cranberry.

    Up north it is stuffing, for sure on both sides of the bird, like Tam said.
    I make it with cornbread too, and sage, and have used chestnuts as well, which is amazing.
    That fight the two drunk girls had about the deck hand reminded me of my two best friends fighting over the dorkiest boy we were hanging out with that night. Everyone was drunk and one of my friends ended up calling my other friend a “slut and a whore”, and I remember it like it was yesterday. The rest of us were horrified and no one could believe the fight was happening over this …guy.
    I watched The Good Doctor, have always loved that show but this season is brutal. It just brings me so much covid ptsd, so I can only watch it in small doses. It is very well done though, and sooo real.
