Michael Symon and Esther Choi host 24 In 24: Last Chef Standing, Food Network's most ambitious and grueling culinary competition to date.

At the end of the 24 hours, there can be only one true master left standing - and it's one selected by expert judges Eric Adjepong, Maneet Chauhan, Scott Conant, Stephanie Izard, Jet Tila, Bryan and Michael Voltaggio, and Brooke Williamson.

The chef who cooked the best, for the longest and outlasted the competition will take home $50,000 and win a trip of a lifetime.

The 24 competing chefs are comprised of culinary icons, rising stars, and competition rookies.

Speed judge Jet Tila will taste and score every dish, separating the leaders of the pack from the chefs on the brink of elimination.

Right out of the gate, the chefs are served up a shocking twist that sets the tone for the rest of the competition, letting them know that no one will be safe from elimination until the end.
