After each round, a chef is then eliminated until there is one winner at the end. The winner receives $10,000.[1] In each round the chefs are given from three to five food items that must be part of their dish. There is a large pantry and refrigerator that the chefs can use in addition to the required items. In each round the chefs are given a limited time to complete their dish. The appetizer part lasts twenty minutes. The entree part lasts thirty minutes and the dessert part lasts twenty minutes. Three guest chefs judge each round.
