Cutthroat Kitchen

- Season 7

(2015)

Challenges include digging for clams, cooking turkey burgers while wearing arm weights, and making a tart with fruits that are often mistaken for vegetables.

Chocolate challenges are presented to the competing chefs, one of whom has to face Alton's conveyor belt.

A deli sandwich is made with ingredients from a vending machine; two chefs have to cook each other's tacos; and a lazy "sundae" drive around the kitchen is offered up as the final obstacle. Anne Burrell is the special guest judge.

One chef has to wear a potato masher on their hand, while preparing gnocchi. Other challenges include cooking drunken noodles on a keg of fire; and making thumbprint cookies, without the use of thumbs.

One chef has to use finger tools, when making a bacon-wrapped dish; a race-car seat becomes an obstacle to serving a winning lasagna; and the final challenge involves a black-and-white cookie.

Challenges involve making an omelet, oysters Rockefeller and a cream puff.

Obstacles must be overcome as the chefs make tuna melts, Salisbury steak and scones for judge Jet Tila.

Eggs must be harvested from a chicken coop, in order to prepare a dish for judge Simon Majumdar; and later, two chefs cook British pub food in a double-decker bus. Also: the last challenge is sandwich cookies in milk bottles.

A chef's only tool, when making bahn mi, is a martini glass. Later, ingredients for tortilla soup must be whacked out of a piñata; and a galette has to be baked on a tennis racket.

Springtime dishes (and obstacles) are featured, including an egg-salad sandwich on a picnic blanket. Also: one chef has to herd "sheep" while making a lamb dinner; and ingredients for dessert must be harvested out of a carrot garden.

Part 1 of 5. Fish stew is cooked in a canoe; preparing pasta carbonara in a moving mine cart proves challenging; and during the final round, pound cake is made using a chemistry set.

Previous contestants return for a battle that features Alton's most evilicious sabotages yet. Included: three chefs have to make a stir-fry while sitting in airline seats. Also: challenges involve chicken fried steak and cobbler.

Part 3 of 5. The chefs take on challenges involving a cardboard car, an underwater scallop dish and wearable donuts.

Part 4 of 5. The Evilicious Tournament continues, as the chefs play musical sushi rolls and fashion runway cooking. Also: pies are made while wearing carved pumpkins.

Conclusion. The Evilicious tournament comes to a close as the finalists compete in challenges that include: meatball prep in a ball pit; preparing a teriyaki dinner while on a seesaw; and harvesting coconuts from a tree to make macaroons.
