First Aired 9/27/2024

Chef Ramsay is focusing his search on one specific group: Head Chefs Only! This talented crop of chefs will come from all ages, backgrounds, culinary specialties, and restaurant types. But whether that restaurant is a tiny mom-and-pop shop or sports a large fine-dining brigade, these chefs are used to calling the shots. Line cooks need not apply. And with such proven leaders in his kitchen, Chef Ramsay is setting the bar higher than ever before. The challenges...tougher. The opinions...stronger. The drama...louder. These alpha head chefs will battle it out in the ultimate ego blender to prove they have the culinary skills and leadership mettle to command Chef Ramsay’s kitchen.
