Chef Gordon Ramsay returns for an 11th season of his hit cooking competition in which aspiring restaurateurs compete for a life-altering prize. During their time at the intense culinary academy, contestants take part in rigorous cooking challenges and dinner services under Ramsay's fiery command. Each week, a losing team is determined, and two contestants from that team are put on the chopping block. Ramsay must then decide which contestant is done at Hell's Kitchen, and who deserves another shot at competing for a coveted black jacket and the grand prize.
