I love that Jamie has 2 settings: “As traditional as we possibly can” & “paella burrito”

Barry taking a true "Florida Man" approach to "juicing" those limes...

I love have every chef says "it's a celebration of" when they want to go rogue from a traditional dish.

Ben: "I couldn't find any Clitoria flowers" Well, we've all been there.

Carissa: Make it with love. Barry: I'll ruin the main ingredient with a blender.

Have you guys ever heard of a lemon squeezer? Works with limes also.

Every time Ben cooks he’s celebrating something. I love it. I feel like every time he makes a special meal or does a challenge this emoji is just on repeat in his head:🥳🥳🥳

"you spaffed it" said the man who put limes into a blender cause he didn't feel like juicing them.

Ben’s Celebration of Florida looks beautiful. I wish he’d made a key lime pie.

jamie "we've done our research". also jamie, only makes one hole in a can and squeezes the milk out....

Ben keeps saying the words "Key Lime Pie" but I don't think he knows what it means. But as a Floridian the most Florida thing to do is to order Key Lime pie from a restaurant and then immediately judge it like you're Gorden Ramsey on Masterchef as soon as it gets to the table.

Former bartender here: chuck your limes in the microwave for max 30 seconds then squeeze them! You'll get more juice out! The other trick is to roll them before you try to squeeze them, but we're too lazy for that...

Ben is so positive even when he loses. I love that about him. It's like he's just happy to watch other people improve. On a side note, Mike needs like 4 straight battles to get him some badge opportunities.

Of course Mike is having a good day: He gets to see Drama unfold with quotable quotes lol

watching the tasting reaction to Barry and Jamie's pie was weirdly glorious, and so damn satisfying. Ben did some amazing ideas and tributes but, the second that 2nd pie hit their tongue, you could just see the ratatouille moment hit across the room and it was wonderful :)

Ben: "Clitoria" Jamie: *looks into camera*

So basically Ben is going Barry-style by making something that isn’t the actual thing asked for in the brief for the battle? Or am I wrong?

As someone in Florida who *HAS* juiced dozens of limes for a Key Lime pie, I’m just aghast that Barry blended the limes.

To me, one mark of a good key lime pie is this: When it arrives at the table, it looks plain and insignificant compared to other pies. Then I taste it and realize less is more, it's plenty satisfying in the amount served.

I'm Egyptian and had NO IDEA that some of our lemons are actually key limes! Over here we just call them all lemon or laymoon hahaha. Glad you guys mentioned us in the video!

Pro tip, you can use a garlic press to squeeze key limes. It's the best and fastest way to get all the juice out of them. And no, Barry, you can't just blend them like that.

Barry: piffle, cookie pie, blondie, "ice, cream, sandwich" Also Barry: BEN'S NOT STICKING TO THE BRIEF

Barry “Barely sticks to the brief” Taylor is calling someone out for not sticking to the brief? Next thing you know, he’s shouting one of the lads for leaving the hob on?! XD

As a native Floridian, I approve of Ben’s interpretation of key lime pie. It’s genuinely creative.

I'm utterly in shock that Barry threw all those hard to find limes into a food processor instead of squeezing the juice out

Ben's brief was, "lose in the most brilliant way while the boys make a traditional key lime pie "

Sorry, Ben, that looks like a fantastic dessert, but it's not a key lime pie.

Everyone was very mature about Ben's choice of flower topping... Am I the only one laughing like a little girl? 🤣😂🤣😂

Made with love as Barry chucks the limes in the food processor

Jamie giving us Dad Joke of the Week in the blooper is just what we wanted...FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!

"Celebrate my time in Florida" - Something nobody in America would say.

I'm genuinely shocked that blending the limes didn't ruin their pie filling!! How on earth was it not super bitter because of the pith?? I was horrified when I saw him do that, but...I mean...if it really DID turn out fine, maybe he just figured out a breakthrough shortcut? 😮

Ben: “I want to give the essence of the entirety of Florida.” Doesn’t include oranges, the #1 fruit Florida is known for.

As a Floridian, this is my verdict: Ben could have literally made a BLT sandwich and he would win purely because Barry BLENDED LIMES. That being said, Ben also didn't make a pie. There are no winners here.

Ben's final presentation was gorgeous, and I loved the concept! He's clearly very capable, but something about it looks like a James Curry presentation. The part of me that misses James likes to think that this is one way he left his mark and influence on Sorted :)

The look on Jamie's face when Ben was talking about Clitoria flowers made my entire week. He mentioned those flowers on purpose 😆

Jamie and Barry’s pie looks exactly what my great grandmother used to make when she made key lime pie. Well done.

Ben: "I call this recipe How To Upset Floridians"

I love how Ben took over the role of having beautiful plating that James did all the time even though it’s out of his comfort zone. Ben’s playing was GORGEOUS

Edible flower farm sampling just sounds like such a wonderful thing to me.

So, was Ben just thinking, “You know, it seemed like Jamie had so much fun with that paella burrito thing, I think I want some of that action”???

Is no one gonna mention Jamie’s “[Carissa] explained it all”, that was a genius pun right there

That "Carissa" explains it all joke has just aged all of us, Jamie! How will we convince the youngin's we're hip? Also, Ben made what I would expect Barry to make in a key lime pie battle.

0:57 Oh my days, how this absolutely made my week. *Well deserved* boys, and a hearty congratulations worth hauling around until next challenge!

Ben is such a lad - as evidenced by his pronunciation of the scientific name of the blue pea flower ;) As an American baker, I can honestly say that I agree with winner. Barry and Jamie did an amazing job staying true to the roots of the key lime pie. Ben's was so beautiful and creative - but the beauty of key lime pie is its simplicity which allows the key lime to shine!

I would physically fight someone if I ordered a key lime pie and Ben's pie came to me.

Ben, ya goofed. That wasn't a key lime pie. Boys, you made me happy today. Thank you

Ben is always a winner for me:) it’s pure pleasure watching him work!

Ben: "What I'm gonna do is CALL IT Key Lime Pie adjacent, as I am not making actual Key Lime Pie, nor using any of the actual ingredients."

Cmon when Jamie picked up that biscuit at the 'Battle!' We all knew he was thinking 'there's a few spare for snacking- take a bite!'

I went through a key lime pie phase a few years back and wanted to make the OG recipe. The one you were given is it. The only improvement to make is to leave your graham cracker crust in different sizes. More like what you get when you put the crackers in a zip top bag and beat them with a rolling pin. The texture really plays well against the creaminess of the custard. Oh, and it would have been slightly beneficial to add two tablespoons of key lime zest too. Though considering the blender method of juice extraction, you probably got enough essential oils for it to have been a wash.

I agree with the verdict. I love the look on the guys faces as they bite into the traditional pie. They don't even have to say anything, you could just see the happiness. You can see why eating this on a Florida coast is just an experience to love!

Been watching for a long time, when he started processing those key limes was the first time I've actually exclaimed out loud.

My dad is from Florida and I’ve made so many key lime pies in my life. Ben’s dessert was beautiful and I very much enjoyed how he described Florida so beautifully but Dad would have booted me out if I tried to present that as a key lime pie. Well done Normals!!

So sweet of Ben to be so supportive of Barry and Jamie. He was even giving them tips on juicing the lime ❤

the smile jamie makes when he takes a bite and immediately smiles knowing him and barry won is phenomenal; this is also why chefs tend to lose to the average person on most simple dishes, they make it way too complicated

I'd love a graphic of all the badges the normals have failed to get.

As a Floridian, it made me so happy to see this challenge crop up. Key Lime Pie and it’s older central Florida cousin, the Sour Orange Pie, are two of my absolute favorite desserts. I would kill to try Ben’s interpretation of the dish, especially if he could get real Florida-grown fruits.

I mean I love when you guys come to the USA just not sure Florida will be safe anytime soon

Great episode! By the way, the captions in the very last second the video “(friends laughing)” warms my heart. ♥️♥️

I'm glad team "let's make a key lime pie" won the key lime pie battle with their less is more approach. Ben did make a nice tribute to Florida though.

Ben, just so you know, the paella burrito pales in comparison to what you just did to Key Lime Pie.

I don't even mind how overt this ad is, because it's just so pleasant to watch.

I get ridiculously happy every time you guys do a spon video. You guys deserve all of them and more!

Legend says Baz and Spaff are still juicing key limes somewhere 😂😂

The crickets after the lemons joke 😅

loveing these where ben gets to go alllll out cheffy on his dishes. love seeing his visions and skills come together to create something so.. unique and wonderful looking!

I’m so proud of Jamie and Barry! Looks like you guys had a good competition this time that you’re really proud of!👏 Very lovely sentimental dish Ben! It’s cool to see so much celebrated in a dish. I did also just binge watch every Pass It On which has a lot more anxiety in it. 😆

Sorted: let's be super respectful of Florida! Sorted's American audience: why though?

The *look* Barry and Jamie give each other while Ben explains his dish! 🤣

I have to say, after watching a lot of the "pretentious ingredient tasting" video, I still didn't quite get what "pretentious" really meant (not my first language) until I see Ben's "key lime pie" and now I understand 😂

It amuses me when they say "let's crack on" then crack eggs immediately after XD I have to give this Barry & Jamie cuz, as beautiful as Ben's dish was, he pulled a Barry & didn't follow the brief

The spirit of the pie is that it was created in a remote place that had a hard time getting anything fancy. Hence the shelf-stable milk and just egg yolks instead of more advanced techniques.

Sorted always do the best sponsored content, now I really want basically anything with lime 😅😋

I actually really appreciate when someone tells Barry the maths. I can't do math either and it makes me feel smarter when someone points it out to me.

Jamie completing Barry's dad joke was perfect, just proves dads are stronger together 😌

Barry shredding the limes in the machine is making my body tense with anger. You had a perfect game going.

I don't think Ben's lime dessert is the same thing as a key lime dessert. It feels like if someone had to make a lemon dessert using meyer lemons or yuzu, but used regular lemons instead.

Hello from a fan in Florida! Love watching y'all, and thanks for showing the sunshine state some love! Keep up the shows, mates, love your channel. 💙🧡💙

Hey, I wanted to make a suggestion. Recently, Ben has made some videos of basic techniques (I've gone back to the cheese sauce one about 8 times). I'd really appreciate more 'basic skills' videos like knife skills, the mother sauces, etc. I'd also LOVE a basics/kitchen staples cookbook. I tried to find one of your older cookbooks that looked like it might fill that need but I couldn't even get it used. Thanks!!

The Normals won simply because Ben’s “Florida” went the wrong way. His panhandle went East not West. Great job guys!

I am egyptian and i've never realised that our lime is hard to find its so avaliable and cheap here.. i will appreciate it more now 😂 .. also i have to say that blending them will make them much bitter than just squeeze the juice

I just want to say thank you. I grew up in Florida right there where you are talking about. I have had great key lime pie and bad key lime pie. This was so nostalgic for me. Watching Berry and Jamie cook their pie. You guys rock

Barry is hilarious….Jamie’s saying “NO” and he just goes ahead and blends the limes, no panic…just blends lol. Take a shot at butter tarts next…fully Canadian way 👍😀

1) I love Jamie’s shirt 2) Mike really wants to watch the world burn and start some dramaaaa in the kitchen

The moment Ben said he was adding nuts he'd already ruined it.

Jamie's wee chuckle and his face in the background when Ben said mango foam was my highlight 😂

Thank you so much for highlighting different chefs, super informative people will look into their socials.

Lads. Ben, that is not a key lime pie, that's a reason to need a bodyguard the next time you visit Florida. Baz & Spaff, how do you not know how to juice a lime or open a tin of s.c. milk? Also, dabs of whipped cream, not a spackled layer. Also, if you want it to look greener, beat the yolks with the zest, it'll give it a better color and enhance the flavor.

Mike had the dream job today, got to eat delicious desserts and drink what looked to be a delicious mojito.

Tampa Bay resident here- a few things: 1. Yes come to Florida! (Best time Oct-Apr to avoid skin melting heat and daily storms lol.) 2. Ben I could feel the love you had for your trip in that dish. (Really enjoyed your Moroccan dishes too, I go there usually once a year for a few weeks and you did a great job highlighting those flavors as well!) 3. Barry and Jamie fantastic effort but next time nuke the limes in the microwave for a few seconds then roll them out before slicing and using a handheld citrus press, that’s how you get the most juice. It’s a labor of love and well worth the patience I promise. And usually the whipped cream is applied around the edges so you can still see the custard, or piled on high and blowtorched. I would call your dish a key lime tart because you used a tart pan instead of a pie pan, which would’ve given you a thicker, better looking ratio. There’s also a such thing as mango key lime pie and it’s amazing. I’ll never take their abundance here for granted again. Can’t wait to see an episode of all of you here! Don’t forget the sunscreen!

Outstanding! One of my favorite pies to make.

Ben really Barryed it up with his "key lime pie"

As a native Floridian, my heart broke a little when they decided to spread the whipped cream all over the top of the pie

As a Floridian, I'm so happy the guys chose this challenge!

The judgment in Mike's voice when Jamie and Barry are doing the whipped cream, "Are you just ..smoothing it over .. like a .. driveway?" 😂

I see the tradition of 'completely unable to properly prepare American dishes, no matter how directly they are told to do them' is alive and well here at Sorted. I still haven't forgiven you guys for what you did to meatloaf.

I think Bens "creativity" went a bit off the rails without James...

I am so happy to see so many Floridian comments on here! I am also a Floridian and I LOVE key lime pie it is amazing! I am so proud of Jamie and Barry for actually making a key lime pie (though Barry honestly deserves to lose a badge for food processing the key limes in my opinion), but I am also glad that Ben enjoyed Florida so much that he actually was celebrating my state (which does not happen with non-Floridian Americans all that often) but no matter what that was not a key lime pie, totally inventive and a cool idea but hands down my vote would go to the normal boys. Come to Florida and enjoy the wonders that we have to offer (normally I hate tourists but because yall are actually respectful and appreciate the food, culture, and beauty that is everywhere yall go, I would be honored to watch all yall explore my beautiful state).

This was a fun one for me! Your original key lime pie sorted recipe was the first sorted video I've ever watched. Maybe 8 or so years ago? I've been addicted ever since!
