Kitchen Crash is a on-hour culinary competition series that features professional chefs heading to a local neighborhood block for an outdoor cook-off.
Premise[]
With only 10 minutes on the clock, each chef must convince a local homeowner on the cul-de-sac to hand over ingredients from their kitchen and pantries, with the caveat that the competing chefs can only use the items that the homeowners can fit into one bin. With no additional pantry items and no option to restock, the chefs must ration what they are given for the entire competition. Making the competition even tougher, the chefs must cook curbside as their skills are tested in challenges from Tex-Mex meals, to festival fare, to meat lover's breakfast and more. While the neighborhood watches, Mauro along with (mainly six) one special judge (i.e. Abdoo, Cohen, Jackson, Motamed, Petroni and Samuelsson) decide who crushed the competition. In the end, one winning chef split a $10,000 cash prize with the lucky host family who provided the ingredients.
