Tonight on “Next Level Chef”: As the competition narrows down and the challenge heats up, the chefs must put their best foot forward. Yet, cheese, nuts and charcuterie meats prove difficult for the contestants to navigate. The recently introduced “time token” causes one chef to make a hard decision between sabotage or security. Who shines and whose journey comes to an end in the all-new “That’s What Cheese Said” episode of “Next Level Chef” airing Thursday, April 13 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX? Follow our live blog below.
Joined by two elite names in the food world, chefs Nyesha Arrington and Richard Blais, Gordon Ramsay and his co-mentors leave no stone unturned, as they’ve scoured the country and hand-picked the best home cooks, social media chefs and professional chefs who will be on each of their teams. The winner will receive a $250,000 prize and a one-year mentorship.
