Cooks vs. Cons is a cooking competition show that pits professional chefs against home cooks who claim to have expertise in the culinary arts. In season 5 episode 1, titled "Ballpark BBQ," the contestants are challenged to create delicious barbecue dishes perfect for a summertime baseball game.
Hosted by Geoffrey Zakarian, a panel of judges samples the dishes and tries to discern which ones were created by professional chefs and which ones were made by home cooks pretending to be experts. The catch? The judges have no idea which is which until after they taste the food.
In this episode, the competition is particularly fierce as the contestants are tasked with creating their own unique barbecue sauce as well as a dish that incorporates it. The pros and cons are given access to a variety of grilling equipment and ingredients, with which they must work their magic.
Will the judges be able to determine who is a cook and who is a con? Tune in to find out in this exciting episode of Cooks vs. Cons.
