Brooklyn Beckham Fires Back at Trolls in Latest Cooking Video

Brooklyn Beckham has responded to online criticism of his cooking videos, telling detractors to "Bring it on" in his latest Instagram tutorial. The 27-year-old, who has faced scrutiny for his culinary content, shared a video demonstrating how to make a fried chicken sandwich.

In the clip, Beckham can be seen preparing the sandwich, chopping vegetables for coleslaw, and making fries. He punctuated the video with a defiant message aimed at his critics. "Bring it on comments [laughing face emoji]," he stated.

Despite the backlash he often receives, some viewers offered support, commenting that his latest meal looked "delicious." Others reacted to his sarcastic comment with amusement.

This is not the first time Beckham's cooking has drawn criticism. Earlier in the week, some viewers accused him of overcomplicating a Guinness and beer stew recipe, suggesting a slow cooker would have been more efficient. "No idea why I watch these. They're so basic and boring a child could do a better job!" one commenter wrote. Another added, "Why make it hard for yourself? All ingredients in the slow cooker... make mash potato and Job's a goodun... all this faffing about with ingredients isn't necessary..." Some critics labeled his cooking as "very basic," asserting he is "a cook" rather than "a chef."

Previously, Beckham addressed negative feedback on a pasta dish, which some followers deemed "vile" and jokingly dubbed him a "spaghetti murderer." He responded with a meme of Ross Geller from "Friends" offering a mild gesture and clarified on his story that the pasta was intentionally meant to be burnt for a charred taste. Some fans defended this technique, explaining it's a method to achieve a specific flavor profile.

However, other commenters were less forgiving. "This looks… in a word – vile. It's not even cooked properly," read one comment. Another suggested, "That's how Meghan Markle makes her pasta dishes – a lazy way of cooking." Others dismissed his use of pre-prepared ingredients.

Beckham's other cooking videos have also generated controversy, including a protein pizza made with his own hot sauce brand and a pasta dish prepared using seawater. The seawater incident, originally shared last year, resurfaced on TikTok in August, prompting widespread criticism.

His father, David Beckham, is also known for his interest in cooking, having completed a culinary course in Italy and expressed a passion for perfecting dishes like risotto. Despite their shared interest, Brooklyn has reportedly been estranged from his parents and siblings since January, following a public statement accusing them of trying to control him and interfere with his wedding to Nicola Peltz.
