“This is the most bizarre setting for a meal. I’m in a bathroom.”
Watch an exclusive sneak peek at BBC AMERICA’s new original series CHEF RACE: U.K. vs U.S. before the 2-hour World Premiere *** Tuesday Oct 2 at 9/8c *** Only on BBC America.
Here, the “ultimate small-kitchen experience”: “This is pretty ballsy, to try to pull off sushi for an Asian-American family on a countertop in a hotel room.”
In this new series from Executive Producer JAMIE OLIVER, American and British chefs race coast-to-coast competing for a $100,000 grand prize.
CHEF RACE: U.K. VS. U.S. pits 16 chefs — eight Brits, eight Americans — against each other as they race from Los Angeles to New York City, without their cash or credit cards and with only their will to survive, prosper and win!
Michelin-starred London restaurateur, RICHARD CORRIGAN (Masterchef), serves as a mentor and judge, and CLAIRE ROBINSON (Food Network’s 5 Ingredient Fix) hosts.
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.
