Best Food Network Chefs: Male

For a lead in to this post, check my previous post. Without further ado, here are the three male Food Network chefs that I would want to cook for me.
3. Emeril Lagasse
Specialty: Cajun
Emeril is known for his Louisiana-influenced cooking style and his pattented "Bam!" in his cooking show. (Fun fact: He used to tape multiple shows during the same day and they would occasionally tape late into the night, so Emeril would yell "Bam" to wake his cameramen up.) Emeril is very solid, but I worry a little bit about the spices in his foods. I do like a good spicy food, but not all the time
2. Bobby Flay
Specialty: American
Flay is an awesome chef and master of the barbecue and would be an excellent chef. But the bottom line is he can't hold a candle to the next guy.
1. Mario Batali
Specialty: Italian
Maybe I'm a hypocrite for choosing Batali, who is the premier Italian chef on the food network, when he has not shown the ability to diversify like some of his predecessors on the list. But he is that good at cooking. I once saw him make bark look delicious. (That's a lie, but I bet you he could. He's that good.)
