A team of cooks travel the country and scour the history books to find the very best traditional and contemporary American dishes, then bring them back to the test kitchen and develop practical, approachable recipes.

Contestants in this cooking competition present their dishes to a judges’ panel composed of America’s Test Kitchen icons throughout a series of challenges that test their culinary abilities and on-camera personality. The last cook standing will get the job of a lifetime—becoming the newest face of America’s Test Kitchen, the opportunity to write their own cookbook, and a $100,000 prize to fund the culinary business of their dreams.
