In the season 13 finale of Chopped Champions, four previous winners return for a chance to become the ultimate champion and win $50,000. The contestants are all seasoned chefs with impressive resumes, and the competition is fierce from the start.
In the first round, the chefs must use a basket of mystery ingredients that includes a whole roasted pig, cotton candy grapes, and a bottle of brandy. The chefs must showcase their skills in creativity and flavor as they experiment with this unique combination of ingredients. The judges are impressed with the bold and innovative dishes the chefs produce, but ultimately one contestant is eliminated.
The remaining three chefs go on to the second round, where they must create an entree using a basket that includes bonito flakes, baby octopus, and candy-coated milk chocolate pieces. This round is particularly challenging, as the chefs must balance the sweetness of the chocolate with the savory seafood. The judges compliment the chefs on their technical abilities and ability to balance flavors.
In the final round, the two remaining chefs must create a dessert using an ingredient basket that includes pop rocks, goat cheese, and a bottle of strawberry soda. The chefs are given free rein to create whatever they want, but they must impress the judges with their creativity and execution. The judges are blown away by the level of skill and originality the chefs bring to the table, and the winner is ultimately crowned the ultimate champion.
Throughout the episode, the chefs must navigate unexpected challenges, such as working with ingredients they are unfamiliar with or dealing with unexpected time constraints.
