Chopped: Volume 3

It's the biggest Chopped shake up ever as a wheel of chance will determine the fate of sixteen chefs. In the first battle, four talented chefs must take on baskets containing a glorious seafood product, an amphibious delicacy and a strange beverage.

With twelve chefs left in the pool, only three will be selected by the wheel to attempt to topple a fierce returning champion! The appetizer round presents them with a funny cake and an unusual canned item while dessert starts out with a meaty pie.

The wheel welcomes three more chefs to try and topple a fierce returning champion for a chance at an ever-rising jackpot. Ostrich meat in the entrée basket seems like a gift compared to the wheel's nightmarish pick, while dessert gets sweet and spicy.

With six left in the pool, three impatiently sidelined chefs finally get their chance at the stoves! After facing the wheel's unfamiliar ingredients, the chefs race to prove who can make the better dessert from a breakfast pastry and an Asian spice.

The last three chefs finally face the reigning champion, and the astronomical jackpot is destined to go higher. They'll take on one of the most bitter ingredients in Chopped history and a giant sweet to become the Spin It to Win It grand champion!

Four talented chefs compete in a battle celebrating Chinese cuisine! They scramble to distinguish themselves when prompted to make similar appetizers, showcase their unique style with an impressive salmon entrée and craft a dessert from noodles and candy.

Four lucky duck chefs are pumped to get a beautiful appetizer basket that includes delicious duck as an ingredient. In the entrée round, the chefs continue to cook with confidence and creativity when faced with a basket featuring a comfort food mashup.

It's a truffle kerfuffle in the Chopped kitchen as four chefs work with prized fungi in every round. A pricey cut of meat in the entrée basket puts pressure on the chefs, and the dessert round challenges the final two with crafting truffle-forward treats.

Inspired by hash browns and energized by eggs, four chefs wake up the judges' palates using baskets packed with breakfast foods. Two chefs battle with breakfast sandwiches as entrées, while a strange coffee and meat dish prove challenging for dessert.

The chefs open the first basket to discover they'll be serving up cephalopods! Then, pork and a Portuguese finger food prove challenging in the second round, and two chefs struggle to make terrific desserts with a canned cocktail and a marshmallow treat.

The chefs turn edible trash into culinary treasures in a zero-waste challenge. They have big plans for shrimp shells, leftover meals and vegetable tops before the two finalists make wise use of old milk before time expires in the dessert round.

The chefs are shocked when abalone appears in their appetizer baskets. Then, a fusion soup and a colorful veggie are in the mix in the entrée basket, and an unwelcome egg in the dessert basket challenges the competitors to create innovative final plates.

In a dynamic first round, the chefs have a lot of ideas for their turkey legs and milkshakes, but they struggle to keep pace with the clock. Then in a drama-filled second round, the chefs rush to make steak work with a wacky candied surprise.
