If you saw his season, he was constantly in the bottom 3 for weeks & somehow skated through to the semis. He came back with the same dog and pony show & the judges have no one to blame but themselves for it #MasterChef3The truth is that Alejandro should've never been back.

Goodbye Alejandro. #MasterChefMore details on what happened this week in MasterChef episode 6, season 12At the start of the team challenge, the red team chose Alejandro to be their captain. They decided to serve the coast guards a New York strip with sautéed mushrooms, roasted potatoes, charred broccolini, and citrus chimichurri. While the contestant had to manage his team, he decided to grill the steak instead and denied help from his team.Shanika, a member of the red team, shared,"It seems that Alejandro wants to be the leader and the cook, but he should be in the everything right now. But Alejandro just refuses to leave his station. It's like a dog with a bone. Like, 'It's mine, it's mine'."The judges were equally worried about Alejandro and his work. They shared that he was trying, but they were concerned about him. Things didn't get better for the MasterChef contestant, especially after Gordon spotted him grilling a plate of steaks that fell on the ground.Gordon Ramsay questioned Alejandro, asking him,"You figured picking up a steak from the floor and putting them on the grill was gonna kill the bacteria, and put their lives at risk?"Taken aback, Gordon called the remaining team members and revealed what had happened. The contestants were shocked to hear about Alejandro's mishap and shared that it was food safety 101 and decided to trash those 6 pieces of steak that fell on the ground.MasterChef@MASTERCHEFonFOXAnd I oop- 🤐 #MasterChef425And I oop- 🤐 #MasterChef https://t.co/klbaJcQ1NDHe also told the team to choose a new captain, and Michael took over.
