Chopped: 54x7

Pig Candy

A pork theme is a true treat! The chefs get basket ingredients that make them feel like they’ve died and gone to hog heaven. Round-by-round, the competitor who’s able to celebrate the pig the best in their dishes is bound to be the champ. A prized cut of meat is a nice head start for the chefs in the appetizer round, but they’ll need to cook it perfectly to do it justice. Then in the entrée round, an offal surprise in the baskets leaves some chefs spooked. Donuts and an unusual nose-to-tail offering keep the chefs on their toes in the dessert round.
