This is the kind of stuff you normally only figure out after a lifetime of working in kitchens. I never would've thought about half of this stuff! Thanks for sharing your knowledge Rick!

Me: I wish my kitchen were big enough for an island. Rick: Plot twist - You guys have never seen the OTHER HALF of my kitchen.

I’ve always loved how warm your kitchen feels on both PBS and your KZfaq videos!

What a treat this is. Thank you, Rick. We really love you and feel connected to you over these past decades we've cooked together.

The fact that you have had the same set-up in your kitchen for twenty five years means you got it right on day one. Very impressive, and I look forward to adding some of your choices to my kitchen. Thanks, Rick.

I want a tour of the living room 😂 Those light fixtures look amazing. I always get distracted looking over your shoulder to admire them.

Gosh, I’m loving this kitchen tour👏🏻 I so want an island and griddle like this ‼️ Much respect to Chef Bayless 🤗

LOVED this video, thank you!! Please don't ever take it down, I want to refer back to it often...lol

Lucky guy Rick. I know it all took hard work, dedication, sacrifice and study but still, lucky guy. Much love and best wishes to you and yours this Christmas.

Thank you for sharing your kitchen with us and the tips.

Very nice functional kitchen...always get jealous when watching the cooking videos!

Ever since Mexico One Plate At A Time I wondered what was on the other side of the island. I need to wonder no more.

Grew up watching Rick in that kitchen, who knew all this time he had a second sink lol I always just figured it was a TV set 😄

Only Rick could make me appreciate my kitchen in my one bedroom house. Thank you chef.

Out of everything there, the dishwasher is the ultimate “I’ve spent my life in restaurant kitchens” flex.

That would be a dream kitchen for me. Love that multiple people can work in there without bumping into one another. Soap stone is the best kitchen surface and the 48" stove with both gas and electric is great for bakers and regular cooking. The maple wood does give a comfortable feel. I think I will steal your multiple pull-out cutting board idea and island with cutting surface top. Thanks for sharing your kitchen.

I first saw this kitchen on This Old House! Didn't think anything of it, other than admiring its beauty. Then I watched a Jacques Pépin series episode featuring Rick Bayless as well as some of his YT videos and was like, 'Where do I know this guy/kitchen from???' Been cooking out of Rick's books and videos ever since. So good! Thanks Rick!

I can feel the coziness, the warmth, the happiness from this kitchen. But without the kindness, the sincerity, the love of cooking from Rick, this kitchen would be just..a kitchen...

I love the knotty pine cabinetry, wouldn't have done this kitchen any other way.

I love your kitchen, beautiful and functional!

Hi Rick - I work in a professional cabinet shop. One of things we do best is kitchens. Thanks for the insight!! Truly valuable! I am forwarding to my colleagues to better serve our wonderful customer. Cheers from Coeur d’Alene!

I’ve watched you for so many years on PBS that this kitchen feels like I belong here. I especially enjoyed the episodes cooking with your daughter. I agree with the work triangle. Too many kitchens in new homes… or remodels… are so poorly arranged & inefficient. Yours is perfect for you.

What a awesome kitchen.

Even at home you have a production kitchen... chef Thank you 🇺🇸👍🏻🐻

Rick uploads, I watch. Thanks for vastly improving my Mexican food skills this year. I actually used to buy salsa! Wonderful kitchen. I work in architecture and the kitchen triangle is an absolute must if you want to take things seriously.

Terrific that a named chef actually uses his home kitchen to film his show. During one show, I saw his cat walk by in the background, then I knew this was the real deal. Thanks Rick for keeping it real!

Just lovely... and perfectly functional. But most importantly, so welcoming and warm. Thank you so much for sharing! You're probably the only white man in the whole world whom I will listen to intently on how to make green chile chicken tamales... I grew up making tamales with my grandma and I've never, EVER, tasted any tamales as delicious and perfectly most and firm at the same time as her tamales... with the simplest of ingredients. But, I know your recipe will be wonderful and I look forward to making it. Such was my experience with your green chicken enchiladas and your recipe did not disappoint. So happy to have finally landed on your KZfaq channel. Many blessings to you.

Love your kitchen Rick! That's my kind of kitchen. I love to cook. You just gave me some ideas for my kitchen. Thank you.

that kitchen is all function, with some badass appliances of course. it's a humble yet badass kitchen. nothing but good stuff.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing. Now I have some ideas... Hey, dear? 😉

I could listen to this guy talk all day.

Great kitchen! The stove definitely reminds me of Mexico when I lived there.

Oh! That was wonderful to see your kitchen, Chef. Thank you. Not only is it functional but also beautiful and spacious.

Wow such an insightful video! In the future I will keep these tips in mind!

Love your kitchen. It has always been an inspiration.

Thanks for the tour! I do miss seeing Lanie cooking with you.

I know it's getting cold here in IL, but I would love to see your outdoor cooking arena in Spring. I love your kitchen. Mine is similar, almost like a food lab, down to the vintage cast iron on the walls.

I love it!!!! That what I need :) Thank you for your kindness Rick!

Beautiful kitchen, positive man, encourages us all to cook better and have fun! I noticed the “champion” dishwasher. What is that? Definitely a restaurant grade machine that he is using!!!

It's a quick video but it's long enough that you can zero in on the name of appliance and every kitchen tool Rick uses. It's an incredible kitchen. Not fancy. Just a damn good workhorse type of kitchen. The best kind. Doesn't Rick seem like a great, down to earth guy? He's like a soft warm tortilla in the midst of ego driven celebrity chefs. Just love the guy. Rick, may I please come over for dinner?

Thanks for posting. Great ideas on the kitchen especially the maple cutting board surface!

Awesome kitchen Rick , wish you n yours a Happy Holiday season coming soon

I would love a second over for the reason you have said. Cooking different things at different temperatures. Love your kitchen, thanks Chef.

Thanks for posting! It looks like the perfect work/entertaining area!

Hi from jGeorgia. Rick, I'm pea green; your kitchen is a work of art. Stay well.

Thanks for sharing Mr. Bayless. I love your work.

Thank you Rick, is beautiful ! 🙏💙

5 years ago we completely demolished and remodeled the kitchen in our 100 year old house which was last updated in the 1960s. No white kitchen for me! We too went with natural wood cabinets and our cooktop is center stage on our 5x8 island. So warm and inviting. Thanks for the tour, Chef. Jane

Hoping someday this fellow OKC foodie will be a guest in that amazing little kitchen.

This was wonderful and inspiring. Now if I could just get an invite for one of those get togethers I'd die and go to heaven!

What a priviledge to be invited into your home to tour your kitchen. I would like to share that your videos and cookbooks have inspired and encouraged me to embrace and love Mexican cuisine and culture. I've been studying Spanish now for 18 mos. in preparation to one day go to Oaxaca to experience it all first-hand. Thank you my friend.

Lovely kitchen. I kitchen should be like an old friend; a little worn, but always up to any challenge.

What a beautiful and practical kitchen. It feels very homey.

My favorite room in any house and yours is awesome. Great work and play space.

Thanks for showing us that. I always loved your shows and your restaurants. You kitchen is simple and totally functional and warm. Thanks again.

Great tour! Beautiful that you got the kitchen of your dreams. ❤

I didn’t want this video to end. Me and my gf love watching your content 😆

Hey Rick, Thanks for the quick tour and descriptive. Great seeing the back half at the end. Look forward to more home cooking shows.

It’s beautiful. I love it 🥰

I LOVE this video. And I love your layout because it makes sense. I didn't know about soap stone previously. I had a different concept about It. Also you mentioned wiping off your workspace with bleach and a rag. THAT is something that I really have been wanting to know.

As delightful as touring Julia Child's kitchen, especially the eloquent practicality.

Thank you so much! Ive been watching you in your kitchen since I was a child and I have never seen "the other side!!"

I love your kitchen and have been watching you on PBS for years and glad to see its the same.

What an incredible resource for the aspiring home cook! I’ve always wondered was behind the camera too! Thank you for sharing your space with us.

Rick, thanks for sharing. I really love your videos and have learned so much from you about Mexican cooking. I like that you explain your techniques and offer advice in a simple, understandable method. You also do a great job talking about the history and background of certain dishes and I think this really gives your dishes a lot of charm. You educate us too on ingredients and I've learned a lot from you about different peppers, cheeses etc. Very cool to see more of your kitchen and you explain how you have it set up to your tastes. Always a treat to see a new video!

Great insight…would not expect anything less

Excellent! Very well designed!!

Love the kitchen

Amazing kitchen! 😎

OMG it is the perfect kitchen! I want one like it!

Thank you for sharing, I love everything about it. Some day that will be my dream kitchen lol

That was really great. I gained a whole new appreciation for your kitchen - at least for me, based on the usual perspective we get from your videos, I didn't realize just how much room you actually have to maneuver! Smartly designed, and gave me some good ideas for my own set-up..

great tips and design....I'm jealous, lol.

SImple, yet so functional and beautiful!! Absolutely love it! Keep going Mr. Bayless, give us a tour of your beautiful home!! MTV crib style, lol!! Xoxoxo

What a gorgeous (and functional) kitchen! I’m blown away by how “new” it looks, and yet you’ve had it for 25 years , and even say that you love to entertain too! I can imagine the hundreds/thousands of meals cooked with love in that kitchen. I’ve seen kitchens not even half as old but not maintained or worse, neglected, or designer kitchens that look brand new because the owner never cooks in them 😢 (some people would even admit this in their celebrity house tours). Thank you for inspiring us with your beautiful kitchen. ❤️

Awesome insight, brother! Wisdom at its best...love from San Antonio ❤

I have dreamed of kitchen heaven and yours seems to be it. Speed and efficiency is where the fun is at. And OMG two oven with two different temperatures. Did you invent that idea?

Some really good ideas here

Listening to skip Bayless on fs1 on my tv while watching Rick Bayless videos on my phone

Wonderful tour. Interesting how well thought out a chefs kitchen is compared to others.

As always, you are a treasure my man! I can't do my 1st passion during these cold months so it's incredibly appreciated to have you to help me switch my focus to developing skill in my 2nd passion. I definitely feel lucky to have ya

Wonderful tour! Love the wall of skillets and saucepans! :)

I always wondered where your dishwasher was and how small that sink was! Love the kitchens with outdoor access to herbs at hand.

Amazing kitchen Rick. I'll come over any time and help out! I'm just right down the street!

Nicely organized.

Thanks for sharing!

Beast kitchen!!

I always wondered what was on the other side, great kitchen!!

I love it easy to work and functional

What a smart design. Absolute dream come true.

I would like to know more about the make and models of the dishwasher and other appliances, plus some of the dimensions of your kitchen. Everything you have is so cool. If possible, I would like to emulate what you have going on. Thank you much and keep up with videos. There great.

I will be renovating my kitchen. It’s an open kitchen to the living and dining area. It’s a medium size space. I want a larger island where I have room to prep.

I love this video. We built our home and unintentionally used Rick's triangle theory for kitchen design and it's been fantastic. Would love to have a second oven and sink...

Thank you Chef!

Thanks, Chef!

Thank you super helpful!

Very nice, thanks!

beautiful. only wish you spent some time on your hanging pot wall. i love it!

Wow! I am remodeling my kitchen and you've given me some great ideas. I like the practical aspects and the simplicity while still looking warm and welcoming! I would love to know where to get the caddy that holds your utensils by the stove. Thanks, Rick. I also enjoy your videos and appreciate your kind heart. Blessings!

2 ovens. I'm getting that for my remodel!
