Guy Fieri invites eight of the winningest chefs in GGG history to compete in a five-part tournament full of his toughest games and wildest surprises. The tournament champion will be crowned the GGG Greatest of All Time and receive an incredible $70,000 prize. First, Guy tells the unsuspecting chefs over the PA system that the games have already begun, giving them 30 minutes to make their best handheld dish using only the ingredients they can carry to their stations in their bare hands. The bottom three chefs go to a sudden-death elimination round, where they're given just 20 minutes to make a full Sunday supper. Part 1 ends with two chefs being eliminated!
Guy Fieri's favorite chefs from Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives return to Flavortown for the second time to compete in an epic four-part tournament. He's putting their shopping and cooking skills to the test in his toughest games to see who is a Triple D, Triple G, Triple Threat. First they have to make their best street food on a tight budget, and then it's literally a roll of the dice to see what ingredients the chefs must use in their deluxe dish. Finally, they attempt to mash up comfort favorites in a winning dish for the chance to move on to the finale and earn the title of DDD All-Star Tournament Champion.
Four previous Chopped Champions are returning to compete for a spot in the grand finale of the Chopped: Impossible tournament, featuring Chef Robert Irvine as a judge. First, they must take on a swamp creature and insects in the appetizer round, then attack a sweet spring treat and an aged egg for round two. Finally, the chefs who move on to dessert must remain calm and collected as they deal with whimsical sushi, leftover fruit, and a frozen favorite.
Host Eric Adjepong welcomes some of Chef Alex Guarnaschelli's favorite chefs to the arena, but it's not for fun, it's with the mission to take her down! All-star chefs Geoffrey Zakarian, Rocco DiSpirito and Gabriele Bertaccini prepare to compete in two rounds of intense culinary competition using what they know about Alex to outcook her. Food Network Star Aarti Sequeira and Tournament of Champions winner Mei Lin judge these four friends in a raucous and fierce competition.
Three finalists hit the asphalt to battle it out to be named champion of the Judges Takeover Tournament and $25,000! This time, the stakeouts are supermarket themed, and Alex Guarnaschelli asks the chefs to first find shoppers who hit the butcher counter. Next, they must forage for something fresh from the produce section to impress judges Stephanie Izard and Ludo Lefebvre. For their final dish, the chefs must use groceries from the snack aisle to create a culinary sensation.
Four chefs who proved their rising star status in the Tournament of Champions arena are now Guy Fieri's newest first timers, so they have to make a winner's dinner while playing one of GGG's oldest and coldest games -- frozen food can-can. Then, the new stars play another OG game -- menu magnet madness -- and prepare the dish they each had a part in picking. A new winning star is born and celebrates by grabbing a big cash prize.
The finale of the Beat Bobby Flay Tournament brings four outstanding winners back to the Chopped Kitchen for a chance to defeat a Food Network legend and score $50,000. In round one, a pork product goes through a grinder as the champs try to make it taste good. A canned surprise in the second basket is not exactly what the chefs hoped to find, and as the tournament approaches its dramatic conclusion, a twist or two are in store. Finally, the last champ standing gets to cook their signature dish against Bobby Flay, who has been eagerly awaiting his chance at the stoves for 14 rounds of competition! Will the proven Chopped Champion remain undefeated, or will this day belong to Flay?
The champions of the first four Chopped Grill Masters competitions return to compete for $50,000. The fierce fight to the finish begins with an appetizer basket of sardines and canned Sloppy Joe filling. Steaks are served up in the entree course, but the chefs' success with the other ingredients gives the judges much to think about. The final two chefs draw from family memories when they open up the last basket of the tournament and must grill some do-or-die desserts.
In the conclusion of this historic tournament, it's judges vs. champions! Two separate knockout rounds with the same basket will determine which genius judge and brilliant champ make it to the $100,000 title fight. The stakes are high as the competitors find an unusual seafood delicacy and a hot regional specialty in the first basket. Then, one champ and one judge will be left to duke it out. Who will score the biggest prize in Chopped history, and who will be chopped?
The final four chefs end the tournament with a nostalgic trip to summer camp. Guy Fieri asks the competitors to net the fish to use in their fish dinner, which must also incorporate the rice cereal they receive in a care package from home. Then, they show off their archery skills to pick a whammy for their grilled winner's feast. The winning champion earns a trophy, a donation in their name to No Kid Hungry and a shopping spree worth up to $25,000!
