Fan Casting Iron Chef USA

Chefs from all over the world come to Kitchen Stadium to do culinary battle with one of the Chairman's/Chairwoman's/Chairperson's four "Iron Chefs." Both the challenger and the Iron Chef have one hour to prepare a meal in which each course must prominently include the featured ingredient for that day's show. After the meals are prepared, a panel of judges samples both meals and determines who has made the better meal. Throughout the cook-off, running commentary is made by two "sports-casters" in a booth and one floor reporter.
