Terry Crews to Host New Food Network Show

Earlier this week, Deadline reported that Terry Crews will host a new Food Network competition show titled 100 Cooks. The show will follow 100 of America’s best home cooks as they take on a series of challenges.

In addition to Crews as host, the show will also feature celebrity chefs Nick DiGiovanni and Alex Guarnaschelli as judges. Crews posted a video on Instagram announcing his involvement in the show, telling fans, “I can’t wait for you to see this. I’m so proud. Come hungry.”

100 Cooks is set to premiere on Food Network on Sunday, June 7, at 9/8c. The new show is reportedly being produced by Lando Entertainment. According to People, the show’s contestants will be competing in a “stadium kitchen arena,” with the grand prize getting bigger as more cooks are eliminated, up to $250,000.

“As the competition begins, chefs are selected at random to come to the floor to compete while the ‘Challenge Mixer’ dictates the challenges they will face ranging from fast-paced trivia contests to 30-minute do-or-die cooking battles,” reads a press release for the show.
