Featuring Anne Burrell, Beau MacMillan
What’s It All About? You know they’re out there. Maybe you know some of them, or even are one yourself — those people who have trouble even boiling water in the kitchen. In this new reality-competition series, celebrated chefs Anne Burrell and Beau MacMillan face a challenge of their own: Take a bunch of folks who can barely find their way around a range and turn them into champion chefs … in 10 days. Part boot camp, part cook-off, Worst Cooks in America dares these would-be kitchen warriors to prepare a three-course meal to be judged by food critics who think that it’s actually Burrell’s and MacMillan’s dishes they’re tasting. There’s only $25,000 — and the master chefs’ reputations — on the line. With all of that incompetence going in, someone’s bound to get burned.
