Kitchen Call with a Huge Celebrity Surprise

Aired on: July 27, 2009

When Rachael dials up a viewer named David to see how he enjoyed her recipe for Fajita Chilaquiles Casserole, she has no idea she is calling one of her favorite players from the Boston Red Sox! She gets David Ortiz's answering machine just as the slugger walks into the kitchen. "I couldn't pick up the phone because I'm here!" he says, and Rachael is thrilled. "Big Papi, what's up? ... How much do I love you?"

She then makes the real kitchen call and gives $500 in grocery money to a viewer, but keeps the chat short to get back to her guest. Rachael asks what's new and the baseball player says he wants to show her his new product line which would be a great addition to her kitchen. "This is our new hot sauce," he says, pointing to his Big Papi Hot Sauce line. "We have four different flavors." Rachael asks how hot the sauce gets and he says the Grand Slam mix makes him sweat. "I grabbed the wrong bottle at home and it took me like three days to cool off!"
