Los peores cocineros

Sixteen of the country's worst home cooks arrive at Base Camp and attempt to "impress" Anne Burrell and Bobby Flay with their own signature dish.

The recruits are tested on an international level as they attempt to learn to make hand-pulled Chinese noodles and meatballs from around the globe.

It's all about flavors for the recruits as they have to make and top their own pizza, and have their palates tested with extreme and odd flavor combinations. With 12 recruits left, they will all have to fight to taste victory!

The 10 remaining recruits are up all night learning how to make a late-night treat at a local diner. Then, Anne Burrell and Bobby Flay take it up a notch and teach them how to make an exquisite, romantic entree for two.

It's a St. Patrick's Day surprise as the recruits have to cater a party for 40 hungry Irish New Yorkers.

It's time to get down and dirty as the recruits visit a fish market and have to make a colossal raw bar tower. Anne Burrell and Bobby Flay will then put their names on the line as the recruits cook for the chefs' own families!

The recruits have to impress their hardest critics yet in hopes of moving on to the finale. First they feed 30 screaming third graders, then they must cook a family-style meal for their loved ones that sent them to boot camp.

It's winner-takes-all as the final two recruits battle it out for $25,000. Each recruit must cook a full, restaurant-style dinner for three of America's best chefs.
