Cooking on High: Cooking, Weed & Chaos – Series

What happens when you mix a classic cooking show with weed? At Cooking on High, that’s exactly what happens. Two chefs compete against each other with the goal: who cooks the best THC-infused dish? And the jury? Stoned, of course. The show comes in a fast YouTube format, is loud, colorful and designed more for entertainment than fine cuisine. The cooking show Bong Appétit is a different story: It is less loud and focuses more on culinary depth. Back to overview: Top stoner series.

Cooking on High: Cooking, weed & chaos

Two chefs. One secret ingredient: weed. In each episode, they work their magic with THC-infused ingredients – from brunch to barbecue. The jury tests, evaluates and giggles. The whole thing is edited quickly, loud and more absurd than serious. Perfect for a stoner night with munchies.

Stoned guests & wild challenges

Each episode brings new chefs and new challenges. The guests are usually prominently stoned and make for wild ratings.

  1. Josh Leyva as host
  2. Vanessa Lavorato as cannabis expert
  3. Changing chefs & jury

YouTube legend as host

YouTube star Josh Leyva presents in a relaxed, loud manner and with lots of slang – more of a joker than a gourmet expert.

  • Bringing a social media vibe into the kitchen
  • Humorous, but sometimes over the top

Vanessa Lavorato as a weed professional

She explains how THC works, how to dose and how cannabis can be used in the kitchen. Vanessa Lavorato is probably the most serious character in the format.

  • Background knowledge in mini-cans
  • Food stylist with weed experience

That’s why Cooking on High is a must-see

The show is short, loud and not too serious – ideal for watching on the side while having a joint or a snack. If you want to learn real cooking, you’re in the wrong place. If you’re looking for stoned entertainment, you’ve come to the right place.

Edibles & Entertainment

The dishes are sometimes creative, sometimes completely weird, but always infused. The guests do the rest.

  • Food show with cannabis factor
  • Short episodes, quick effect

More shows with weed in the kitchen

If you want more THC on your plate – here are two alternatives:

Bong Appétit: High Cuisine with Vice

Here it’s finer – gourmet cuisine with cannabis, moderated & explained. Less loud, more flavor. Bong Appétit focuses on culinary depth, culture and know-how – Cooking on High, on the other hand, is short, loud and snackable: more stoner TV than cooking school.

Cooked with cannabis: Netflix cuisine with style

Stylish, high-quality, with Kelis as host – three-chef battle with lots of infused food and real ratings. Cooked with Cannabis offers a well-rounded show concept with a jury, menu and message – Cooking on High, on the other hand, is much simpler, with shorter episodes and more focus on entertainment than enjoyment.
