Chopped is a cooking competition show that is all about skill, speed and ingenuity. Each week, four chefs compete before a panel of expert judges and turn baskets of mystery ingredients into an extraordinary three-course meal. Course by course, the chefs will be "chopped" from the competition until only one winner remains. The challenge? They have seconds to plan and 30 minutes to cook an amazing course with the basket of mystery ingredients given to them moments before the clock starts ticking! And the pressure doesn't stop there. Once they've completed their dish, they've got to survive the Chopping Block where our three judges are waiting to be wowed and not shy about voicing their culinary criticisms! Our host, Ted Allen, leads this high-energy, high-pressure show that will have viewers rooting for a winner and cheering for the losers. Chopped is a game of passion, expertise and skill — and in the end, only one chef will survive the Chopping Block. Who will make the cut? The answer is on Chopped!
Twelve returning champions try their hands at making Scandinavian fish and a sugary cereal as they attempt to get to the $40,000 grand finale in the first part of the tournament with Bobby Flay.
Four more returning contestants battle for the chance to compete against Bobby Flay; the contestants must use seafood that needs tenderizing and a canned product for the appetizer; a king of the sea and an icebox cake await them for the entree.
In the first-round basket, the chefs find pork buns and Mexican street corn; the competitors must use a pickled product with a fair favorite for the entree; delectable cakes and an odd sauce make up the ingredients for the final round.
The $40,000 title fight finale; the three undefeated champs must make appetizers with camel meat and a strange sauce; an especially difficult entree round.
Four soup kitchen chefs face off; for the appetizer, they get creative with bread and orange sauce; turkey and a special cake in the entree round; the dessert basket is full of healthy ingredients.
The butchers take whiskey shots as they handle cuts of pork for the appetizer; a big bird and an oddly-named radish make up the entree basket; the finalists find an ice cream that only a butcher could love in the dessert basket.
In the appetizer round, the chefs try to make meaty appetizers; the chefs get to choose which part of an animal to use for their second dishes; the final chefs make piggy desserts.
A familiar can and a space-age beverage in the first basket; something frozen in time and something nostalgically spherical for round two; a drink named for a movie legend must be used for dessert.
Making canned ham tasty and cleaning mussels are a couple of the challenges in round one. In the entree round, some of the chefs attempt to creatively mask the bright blue color of one of the basket ingredients. Then, will the final two chefs' fruit-and-fries creations please the judges?
A giant circle of dough with a long history and veggies that look like tiny watermelons in the first basket; chewy candy and sweet cheese for the entree; green leaves and blueberries for dessert.
The chefs' baskets are full of hunter-forager ingredients; an aquatic wonder and a delicate flower in round one; an imposing root and a wild beast for the entree round; berries and butter for dessert.
Looks like something went completely wrong!
