WORST COOKS IN AMERICA
Season Five (2014) – Episode 1

“It Just Got Worse”
In the season premiere, the fourteen recruits, each nominated by family and friends for their horrendous cooking skills, are selected by Anne Burrell and Bobby Flay to compete in a grueling six-week culinary boot camp. To demonstrate their skills (or lack thereof), the recruits are tasked with making their “signature dish,” displaying the best of their culinary skills at home. After a brutal first tasting, the chefs select their teams, and the recruit who makes the worst dish gets to choose which team he or she competes on throughout the competition. The recruits later walk into Boot Camp, and Anne and Bobby have them makeover one of their favorite foods—pizza! Anne’s team attempts Grilled Pizzetta with Ricotta, Sausage, Arugula and Chili Oil while Bobby’s team attempts Pizza with Parsley Pesto, Cremini Mushrooms, Fontina and Goat Cheese. In the end, only twelve recruits will make it to the next week of Boot Camp.
