Everything You Need To Know About "Snoop And Martha's Very Tasty Halloween”
Our favorite foodie couple has returned to our TV screens, and I couldn't have asked for a better October treat! Snoop and Martha are back at it with a food special — this time with a Halloween spooky twist. It's Snoop and Martha's Very Tasty Halloween, and it's streaming now on Peacock.

??*SPOILERS AHEAD*?? Do not continue if you don't want a recap of the special. Go and watch it instead.
OK, first things first: This is not like any other competition food show. Not only does it include Halloween treats, spookiness, and competition, but this show serves up a dish of the best judges anyone could ask for: Snoop Dogg, Martha Stewart, and BuzzFeed Tasty's very own Alvin Zhou.
The first thing we know is that Snoop Dogg is hosting a Halloween party in “Tasty Manor” — one for the history books — and we’re intrigued to see how it’s going to shake out.
Peacock
There were so many hilarious moments in this special — I've rounded up my favorite moments here.
Now if you are a foodie like me and you will drop it like it's hot for snacks, baked goods, and treats, then this is the show for you.
Peacock
The special introduces us to some of the best, most kickass chefs and cooks from all around, competing to make the scariest, most delicious Halloween designs and treats. And the winning team receives $20K!!!
Peacock
At the start of the special, we are introduced to the three teams.
Peacock
I am not sure who came up with the teams' names, but these are names I would totally use for my Halloween-themed album or party.
There's Bone Appetit:
The Real Hallowqueens:
And the Kooky Kaijus:
Because we are blessed with Martha, Snoop, and Alvin as judges, the best part is listening in to some of their side conversations while the contestants are creating their spooky masterpieces.
Peacock
Like, when Martha asks the other judges, "Did anyone ever make you do a trick for a treat?" Who knew our girl Martha would go straight for the Halloween tea!
We also follow them around as they sample and weigh in on all the treats the contestants are making.
Peacock
Now I don't know about you guys, but I am a visual type of girl, and I love learning new things. So I love how Tasty is also hooking us up with "Tasty Tips" as we watch the contestants.
You're walking through each step of the process at home and getting tips on how to make the treats that the contestants are chef'n up.
And then in true Tasty fashion, we are gifted ingredients and ideas on how to make even more treats at home with the "Tasty Bites" segments. *takes notepad out*
Peacock
And the "Tasty Cam" is giving that Big Brother feel, where the audience is allowed a bird’s-eye view on what each team is whipping up.
Peacock
Anyone else hungry yet?
But the contestants have to work quickly because they're on the clock, and soon the guests will arrive!!!
Something I’ve never seen before on a competition show: The judges open the Tasty Manor doors to their guests in a full-blown Halloween party for the audience.
Peacock
The only thing I kept asking myself was how do I get invited to the next one?
The guests can walk through each Halloween-themed installation and eat all of the food. Yes...everything is edible!
Peacock
Talk about a foodie's dream.
And the chef's kiss of it all: the judges' Halloween costumes.
Peacock
"When the hell is she going to get to the best part?" you wonder. OK, here it is...the food.
Listen! The special is filled with so much excitement, but I also have to show you some of the incredible things the contestants are creating. Did someone say White Chocolate Bon Bons?
*Wipes drool* Or what about the cookies filled with cherry and black pepper marshmallows?
Wait, wait... Don't forget the Peanut Butter Brownies.
Are you hungry yet? Because this is just the beginning. There are hundreds of treats and recipes.
My stomach was growling with excitement as I was watching.
Listen, I do claim the throne to making the best ramen noodles — but after watching each team, it motivated me to get in the kitchen and learn how to make all of these things.
Peacock
It also reminded me of how basic my own cooking skills are.
Each of the teams had to do their best to impress Snoop, Martha, and Alvin...
Peacock
...because at the end of the special only one team got to take home that grand prize of $20,000.
Peacock
But I’m not going to tell you who won!
Honestly, I’m gonna say it: Snoop and Martha's Very Tasty Halloween is the TV special of 2021. It's funny, and it involves food, money, and amazing banter from our favorites. Did I mention it includes food?
Peacock
Whew, I feel like we all went through an orgasmic food binge together! Will you be watching and eating with me?
