CHEF RACE: U.K. VS. U.S. pits 16 chefs — eight Brits, eight Americans — against each other in the ultimate cross-country culinary culture clash. To get from Los Angeles to New York City, they’ll need teamwork, hustle & ingenuity… because this Revolutionary War will be won with canapes, not with cannons!

Michelin-starred London restaurateur, RICHARD CORRIGAN (Masterchef), serves as a mentor and judge, and CLAIRE ROBINSON (Food Network’s 5 Ingredient Fix) hosts.

The Race starts on the Santa Monica Pier in Los Angeles, where Team U.K. and Team U.S. are stripped of their cash and credit cards and challenged to cook to survive, prosper and win.

From dealing with an entire bison in New Mexico, fishing in the Great Lakes and maneuvering a mobile pizza oven in Chicago to tackling serious barbeque in Memphis and whipping up their best crab cake in Maryland, these chefs must prove they’ve got what it takes when thrust into the rich diversity of American cuisine.

Not only will they have to prove their culinary weight, they’ll be forced to stay formidable against teammates with big egos and sharp tongues. Resourcefulness, ingenuity, leadership and finesse will be just as important on their 4,000 mile adventure as the tastiness of their delectable creations.
