Hell's Kitchen

Sixteen chefs — split into teams of men and women — prepare their signature dishes in hopes of becoming a chef at one of Gordon Ramsay's many restaurants.

The chefs must cook eggs four different ways. The winners take a helicopter tour of L.A. while the losers unload, gut and fillet a large tuna.

The remaining chefs must roll the dice to determine their next ingredients. The winning team enjoys a thrilling wind tunnel experience while the losers clean up.

The chefs must prepare dishes consisting of pork cuts and side items. Chef Ramsay surprises the contestants with the first-ever "Hell's Kitchen" barbecue.

The remaining chefs must make meals out of the five “mother sauces” without reusing any of the other twenty ingredients. The winning team gets to visit an English pub.

For the season's seventh dinner service, “Hell's Kitchen” hosts a fiftieth wedding anniversary. The chefs must update the classic dishes served at the original wedding reception.

The aspiring chefs must make unique sandwiches. The winners spend a day in California's wine country while the losers grind the peanuts for the next day's dinner service.

Chef Ramsay tests the remaining chefs' palates in a blind taste test. The winning team enjoys a day at Sea World while the losers unload deliveries of trout.

The chefs must create unique lobster dishes to be judged by Michelin star chefs. The winners enjoy a visit to a caviar house, followed by a shopping spree.

In their first individual challenge, the chefs must create dishes that look as good as they taste. The winner’s dish will appear in a food magazine.

Each chef can only spend ten dollars on ingredients for their next meal. A jury of gourmands taste the dishes and estimate how much they would pay for them.

The four chefs must teach bachelors with no cooking experience how to prepare monkfish. The winner and a chosen guest get to ride on a Goodyear blimp.

The last four chefs taste dishes at the Savoy Grill, then must recreate one. The winner spends time with their family on a yach while the losers clean the dormitories.

In the season finale, the final two chefs travel to the London West Hollywood to be judged by five of Gordon Ramsay’s top chefs.
