Next Level Chef is an American reality television series that premiered on Fox on January 2, 2022. The series stars Gordon Ramsay, Nyesha Arrington, and Richard Blais serving as mentors.

Format

Fifteen chefs compete in a series of elimination challenges, divided into three teams under the guidance and judgment of Ramsay, Blais, and Arrington. Each week, chefs are assigned to cook in one of three kitchens stacked on top of each other. The upper level is stocked with a wide range of modern tools and devices, the middle level is a standard commercial kitchen, and the lower level contains a limited collection of lower-quality equipment.

The season winner will receive $250,000 and a one-year mentorship under the three judges.
