Presiding over the competition will be Michelin-starred Marcus Wareing, celebrated MasterChef judge, Gregg Wallace and returning renowned chef, Monica Galetti
MasterChef: The Professionals returns to BBC One and BBC iPlayer this autumn for its 16th series, as 32 ambitious chefs from across the country battle to become the 2023 Champion.
Marcus Wareing says: “My expectations are high and I’m looking for the very best talent. The chef worthy of the trophy needs guts, flair and absolute focus on reaching that goal.” Over seven intense weeks and 21 episodes, the chefs, drawn from kitchens all over the UK, are put through their paces - first competing in the Heats to try and make it to that week’s Quarter Final. In each Heat, four chefs cook against one another for just two Quarter Final places.
For the 12 best chefs, who have proven they can take their cooking at the next level, Knockout Week is back. Challenges during this intense week include an all-contestant cook off to each create a dish that evokes a memory, serving up stand out dishes for the MasterChef pop-up in London’s Market Halls, Oxford Street and creating their ‘last meal on earth’ for the MasterChef judges.
