Chopped Castaways

The nine remaining chefs must choose their weapons and hit their targets to earn high-value ingredients. In a relay-style cook, each team creates one cohesive dish built around a showstopping basket, and the losing team is sent to a brutal Gauntlet.

For a high-risk challenge, the 10 remaining chefs must dive into choppy waters to retrieve their basket ingredients. In the head-to-head elimination Gauntlet, a delicate protein meets unexpected flavors.

To locate their baskets, the chefs must navigate the dense jungle using only a compass, where every wrong turn costs valuable time. In round one, each chef is pushed to define their point of view.
