Team Pitch to Plate

In the season's first team challenge, chefs compete to see who will make the starting lineup, trading in their mystery ingredients for a chance to score big. This massive mission brings the FIFA World Cup 2026TM to the Masterchef kitchen as the cooks team up with the U.S. Soccer Federation to serve lunch to 101 hungry kids coming straight off the field. With a special guest judge and Gordon Ramsay as the honorary goalkeeper, the heat is on and only one team will walk away with the immunity pin.
