Chef Boot Camp
Add To my ShowsOverview: The series takes a deep dive into one of the most critical and essential elements of restaurants everywhere – the chefs running the kitchen. Host Cliff Crooks takes his decades of expertise and embarks on a new mission to help struggling chefs from restaurants across the country prove that they deserve to keep running their kitchens. Each episode Cliff will put a trio of underperforming chefs (who were nominated by their respective restaurant owners) through a grueling series of challenges to test their real-world culinary skills and fitness for the role. With their jobs on the line, these chefs will attempt to not only survive but thrive in Chef Boot Camp and prove to their owners they have the talent and passion it takes to succeed.
