Gordon Ramsay’s hit reality TV show “MasterChef” was given the spin-off treatment in 2013 when an all-kids version, dubbed “MasterChef Junior,” debuted on the Fox network. Young chefs with a dream of cooking for a living were allowed to compete on the reality TV show as long as they were between the eligible ages of 8-13. The first-ever champion was Alexander Weiss (age 13), who beat out a dozen others to claim the trophy and the $100,000 cash prize. If you need a refresher on all of the “MasterChef Junior” winners now, scroll through our photo gallery below.
Besides Ramsay, other judges to call the shots on the competition series have included Graham Elliot, Joe Bastianich, Aaron Sanchez, Christina Tosi, Daphne Oz and Tilly Ramsay. Initially people were concerned that Ramsay’s penchant for throwing out F-bombs on shows like “MasterChef” and “Hell’s Kitchen” would be a problem on “Junior,” but...

Even though I didn't see my people, I heard my people. Buffalonians will chant "Let's Go Buffalo" anywhere; deal with it.
Nevertheless, I don't mind putting some respect on the Midwest, and they brought all the heart and the heat from the Heartland during MasterChef Season 13 Episode 2.
Fifty Countries in a Trench Coat
Masterchef Tastes of America understands the assignment and understands it well, putting some recognition on the sheer diversity in food spanning across the States.

By the conclusion of the 22nd Food Network South Beach Food & Wine Festival (Sobewff), 450 chefs had participated in 110-plus events attended by more than 60,000 food and beverage industry professionals, foodie fans, fine-dining fanatics, lovers of burgers, tacos and fried chicken, and the culinary-curious masses on the hunt for tasty bites and sips and a Guy Fieri selfie.
The wizard behind this culinary oz in the sand is Lee Brian Schrager, arguably one of the most influential people in Miami’s food scene as the founder of Sobewff and chief communications officer and senior vice president of social responsibility for Southern Glazer’s Wine and Spirits, the largest liquor distributor in the United States.
Every winter, he makes magic happen in the Magic City as the event has transformed into being as much about culinary television, book and endorsement deals and celebrity chef sightings as it is about wine and food.

The winner takes home a cash prize of $250,000 and the coveted trophy, plus some champs have even received cookbook deals. Scroll through our photo gallery below to see the “MasterChef” winners list for all seasons.

Gordon Ramsay‘s “MasterChef” debuted July 27, 2010 on Fox following an episode of spiritual cousin series “Hell’s Kitchen.” While the latter reality TV show features professionals, “MasterChef” is open to amateurs who have mostly only cooked at home. Each season the judges are tasked with cutting down the number of chef-testants until only one remains. The winner takes home a cash prize of $250,000 and the coveted trophy, plus some champs have even received cookbook deals. Scroll through our photos above (or click here for direct access) to see the “MasterChef” winners list for all seasons.

Top Chef is about to crown a season 16 champion, but not before finalists Sara Bradley, Kelsey Barnard Clark and Eric Adjepong spill all on what you didn't see in Kentucky. Eric, Kelsey and Sara are all competing for the title of Top Chef in the Thursday, March 14 finale.

Last week, as “Top Chef” 16 headed to Macau, China, while building to its big finale on March 14, Michelle Minori won the Quickfire Challenge with her clever cuttlefish noodles with Chinese beans and lotus root. Kelsey Barnard Clark (see photo above) nailed the Elimination Challenge by mixing her Southern flair with the tastes of Macau by serving a mushroom broth loaded with peas, greens, orange rinds, Portugese sausage, cashews, cilatro and chives. Even hard-to-please Padma Lakshmi declared it beautiful.
And, as predicted by our poll last week when Adrienne Wright earned zero votes in our Gold Derby poll that asked which of the five remaining chefs most deserved to win, she made the judge’s least-favorite dish for an event celebrating Chinese New Year. Serving a small bite consisting of a fried sticky rice cake, hoisin braised pork belly and roasted chili aioli just didn’t cut it with judges Tom Colicchio and Graham Elliot.

The contestants said goodbye to Kentucky on last week‘s “Top Chef” and hello to the Chinese territory of Macau this week. There they meet up with Graham Elliot in a local market for a Quickfire Challenge highlighting local Macanese proteins and then later honor the Year of the Pig with pork dishes at Elliot’s Chinese New Years party with guest judge Hong Kong’s super chef Jowett Yu.
The Final 5 is led by Eric Adjepong from Washington DC, the only male chef left, whose African-inspired cuisine has garnered him three individual main challenge wins and the distinction of being the only chef left that has never scored among the bottom three. Kentucky native Sara Bradley earned her first individual win last week, giving her a slight edge over Adrienne Wright who like Sara has placed on the high end and low end four times each this season.

Somehow I missed the fact that a new “Top Chef” season – No. 16, to be exact — premiered two weeks ago. Thank goodness, my DVR remembered for me. While “The Great British Baking Show” has taken over the Bravo staple’s prime seat at the dining table of my heart when it became available on these shores, “Top Chef” is a close second in fulfilling what I crave in a cooking competition show.
The Food Network’s pantry of watching options continues to entice me. But they rarely fully satisfy my appetite. “Iron Chef America” is too beholden to a ticking clock and, like many food-related contests, is contained in a single space. I like the chef judges on “Chopped,” especially Alex Guarnascelli, but the format only occasionally allows for surprises and twists.
