—Mr. Game and Watch's trophy description in Melee
Chef in Melee.

Chef (シェフ Shefu) is Mr. Game & Watch's neutral special move in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros Brawl. He pulls out a frying pan and tosses sausages, which fly erratically through the air. The sausages do low amounts of damage, but they can be used to deter angled attacks. Up to five sausages can be tossed in one use of the move. The pan itself is somewhat more powerful and also does fire damage. If the player taps the special button repeatedly, the speed that Game & Watch tosses the food out will be increased.

In Brawl, the pan tosses out a total of four foods: sausages, steak, shrimp, and fish. There is no practical difference between the foods.

This move is spammable, and is decent for projectile camping, despite its small range. This is because the foods are thrown very close to each other, and at least one will hit opponents that try to approach Mr. Game and Watch and cause hitstun. Even if the opponents do get through, they may be hit by the pan and sent backwards.

Normally this is a physical projectile that cannot be absorbed, but if Kirby uses the move after copying Mr. Game & Watch in Brawl, the food items can be absorbed.

[edit] Origins

Chef is a Game & Watch game where the player takes on the role of a chef cooking various foods by flipping them with his frying pan. The player has to keep all the food airborne until it is finished, lest it fall on the floor and promptly eaten by an awaiting mouse or be speared on a fork by a perched cat.
