Patrick Schaeffer cooks for forty thousand people on game days. He is the Senior Executive Chef for Aramark at Citi Field — the New York Mets stadium — which means his job, in any given week of baseball season, is to keep tens of thousands of people fed without any of them noticing they are eating stadium food.
He beat Bobby with a bacon cheeseburger. The cheeseburger is the most overcooked competitive dish in American television history. Every chef who has ever done it on TV has had a take. Schaeffer's was the take of a man who has cooked ten thousand burgers in a row and watched what works and what doesn't.
Bobby has spent thirty years on the burger as a personal brand. Bobby's Burger Palace was a chain. Schaeffer, who feeds the Mets, beat Bobby at Bobby's burger.
