Tournament of Champions
Channel: Food Network (DStv 175)
TX Time: 19h55
Genre: Reality Competition, Food
Guy Fieri hosts and executive produces this culinary competition in which 16 of the USA's most celebrated chefs face-off on Tournament of Champions.
The chefs go head-to-head in a single elimination bracket-style competition, where a randomizer machine determines the protein, produce, equipment, cooking style and time for each of the cook-offs.
The pressure is on and emotions are high throughout this unpredictable tournament, as the elite chefs enter this blind competition not knowing who their opponents will be, or what cooking challenges they will face.
The intensity increases in each sudden-death round of the tournament as the coveted spots decrease from 16 to eight in the second round, then to four, until there are only two chefs in the final round.
