Twelve talented chefs nominated by co-workers, family members and loved ones for their tempers, stubbornness and egos enter the Yes, Chef! kitchen to work on themselves and their food. First, they’ll work in teams to create a four-course menu for judges José Andrés and Martha Stewart.
The chefs enter the kitchen to find Martha putting the finishing touches on her famous roasted chicken. Each team must prepare five appetizers one at a time to go with the roast before her chicken is ready to serve. Timing is key in this challenge and the chefs need to trust each other to succeed.
Egos are tested in the Yes, Chef! kitchen when José and Martha present the chefs with mystery boxes labeled 1-5 that will challenge their skills and confidence. Martha and José offer the captains a risky choice ... can the Chefs keep their egos out of the kitchen?
The chefs are used to being leaders in their own kitchens - critiquing their team's work, deciding what goes on the menu and determining what makes it out of the kitchen and onto a diner's table. In this challenge, the tables are turned.
The chefs sit down for a family-style dinner and taste and judge each other's food alongside José and Martha. The decision of who enters the cook-off will be fully in the chefs' hands. Will they play it safe or be bold enough to target their biggest threats?
The chefs are forced to come up with their best sweet dish to help temper the visitors who are coming back and looking for revenge. Martha and José are judging blind. The chefs in the cook-off are fired up to stay in the competition.
