Chef Mat explained how and why the incident took place in the Below Deck Mediterranean Season 6 After Show, shared exclusively with Bravo Insider members, further noting that the things that happened along the way led to him "grab[bing] fire with my hands, so it wasn't the smartest move."

Chef Mat ended up burning his left hand, specifically his fingers, and needed medical assistance. "It hurt. It hurt. I never had such a bad burn in my whole cooking career," he said. "Everyone was grossed out by it."

While he was "freaking out" about the injury after a medical professional tended to it, he ended going back to work and cooking up a delicious meal for the guests that even left one proclaiming "I'm going to marry the chef."
