New series of Gordon Ramsay's American cooking competition. 18 chefs compete for the prize of a head chef position at Gordon Ramsay Steak at the Paris Las Vegas in Paradise, Nevada. In the first episode, the contestants make a dramatic arrival at Hell's Kitchen before being split into teams for the signature dish challenge. When it is time for the first evening service, the teams have very different approaches.

Chef Ramsay is bringing back former black jacket chefs to compete in an all-star season for the biggest prize in Hell's Kitchen history.

The contestants face a challenge involving scallops, with the winning team enjoying a yacht cruise and the losers having to clean and prep the kitchens. The losing team also get an unpleasant surprise from sous chef Scott in the form of a scallop smoothie. Evening service proves to be a disaster, but will an attempt by one team to rig the elimination succeed?

One team really struggles during the challenge, which involves preparing a meal for a group of immigrants who have just become American citizens. The winning side receives a safari trip to San Diego, while the losers must work at the Ballona Wetlands. At evening service, Chef Ramsay calls in a previous contestant to give a pep talk to one of the hopefuls. Who will be eliminated this time?

16 all-star chefs compete against each other in a bar menu challenge and Chef Ramsay surprises everyone with a shocking elimination.
