Food Network celebrates home cooks this summer with the brand-new series 100 Cooks – the biggest, boldest home cook competition in the network’s history.
Hosted by actor, television host and former pro football player Terry Crews, the series welcomes 100 of the country’s best home cooks to run through an epic seven-week culinary gauntlet where 99 cooks will be eliminated and only one is named America’s best home cook and wins as much as $250,000.
In each episode, competitors are selected at random by a lottery ball “Cook Mixer” to come to the floor after the “Challenge Mixer” dictates what food-themed battle they will face. Each round is judged by top culinary content creator Nick DiGiovanni and Food Network all-star Alex Guarnaschelli, who will determine who stays in the competition each week and who is sent home.
100 Cooks premieres Sunday, June 7th at 9pm ET/PT on Food Network and streams the next day on HBO Max. The premiere episode will also be available globally on Nick DiGiovanni’s YouTube channel. Following the U.S. launch, 100 Cooks will be localized and roll out in around thirty of WBD’s international territories, across networks, discovery+ and HBO Max.
