We already knew that on Thursday, October 11, Anthony Bourdain is getting his ass served to him at New York Wine & Food’s “On the Chopping Block: A Roast of Anthony Bourdain.” But now we know the comedic line-up — and let’s just say … revenge is sweet.

Co-hosts Mario Batali and Willie Geist will welcome Rachael Ray, Eric Ripert, Guy Fieri, Ted Allen, Sarah Silverman, and Gilbert Gottfried. And the comedy club Caroline’s is working on wrangling more scorned, burned, and bullied roasters. This, just two weeks after Bourdain told Grub Street he never laughed harder than when Guy Fieri went to a Nickleback concert (with a rather unflattering Fieri imitation). Good luck, Tony!
