Tonight, on OWN’s season final of “The Great Soul Food Cook Off”, the final three chefs pour their hearts and souls into a four-course feast for the judges and face one final unpredictable twist. Then, one talented chef is named The Great Soul Food Cook-Off champion and walks away with the $50,000 prize.
The final three contestants include Atlanta’s own Dorian Hunter (Elevated Soul) and Razia Sabour (Fuller Food) and New Yorker Chris Scott (Butterfunk Biscuit Co.).
For the finale, the chef contestants had three hours to create a four-course meal that reflects their soul food journey. The plot twist is that the chefs had to plate their first course after an hour, have that dish critiqued, and one of the chefs would be eliminated from the competition! Then, the competition is down to just two chefs. Tune in to find out what happens!
The OWN finale of “The Great Soul Food Cook-Off” airs tonight at 10pm ET/PT. Check out these exclusive clips below.
