Episodes

Chef Anne and Chef Beau have their own team of six recruits chosen by the other chef. The two chefs are having a competition to try to have their best recruit beat the other chef's best. In every episode, there are normally two challenges- a Skill Drill and a Main Dish Challenge. The Skill Drill challenge is designed to show or teach the recruits a skill that is needed for cooking (i.e. teaching them knife skills) and the Main Dish Challenge consists of recreating a recipe shown by the instructor of their team. The instructors, Chef Anne and Chef Beau, judge their team's recruits on their performance in those challenges and each picks one recruit who did the worst job to turn in their apron.
