Yes, Chef! “Chefs Rank” – Monday May 26 on NBC

Contestants critique each other’s dishes in a dinner party power play, with culinary experts José and Martha guiding the tasting.
NBC’s culinary competition Yes, Chef! sees its contestants step into the judges’ shoes in the “Chefs Rank” episode, airing Monday, May 26 at 8:00 PM ET/PT. The chefs will participate in a family-style dinner, tasting and critiquing each other’s creations under the guidance of culinary experts José and Martha.
The episode introduces a significant strategic component: the chefs themselves will decide who advances to a cook-off. This dynamic forces contestants to weigh their critiques carefully, considering potential alliances and rivalries as they decide whether to target strong competitors or adopt a different approach in their evaluations. The decisions made during this tasting will directly influence who faces elimination.
The outcome of “Chefs Rank” will pivot on this combination of culinary skill and interpersonal strategy, setting the stage for intensified competition as the inaugural season moves forward.
