Last Chance Kitchen Returns with Even "More Twists and Turns": Get Your First Look

Last Chance Kitchen is back to give Top Chef Season 19's contestants a chance to re-enter the competition.

Your First Look at Last Chance Kitchen Season 19!

Bravo's Top Chef Season 19 is officially underway with a new crop of cheftestants vying for the top title in Houston.

The competition is fiercer than ever, and, in the end, only one chef can reign supreme. However, hearing Padma Lakshmi tell a contestant to "please pack your knives and go" upon their elimination does not necessarily mean the end of the road for them, thanks to the return of Last Chance Kitchen.

Bravo's Emmy-winning digital companion series is back to give Season 19's eliminated chefs a chance to re-enter the competition. In each episode, host Tom Colicchio presents a new culinary challenge to the eliminated cheftestants, who will go head-to-head to try to cook their way back into the Top Chef kitchen.

And this time, Last Chance Kitchen is going BIG. "This season promises more twists and turns, more award-winning guest judges, as a whole new batch of talented chefs fight to win it all," Tom teases in the above clip before assuring us with a laugh, "This should be fun."

We didn't have any doubt about that.

Presented by BMW of North America, Last Chance Kitchen will be available on BravoTV.com, On Demand, or wherever you stream Top Chef at the conclusion of each week's episode.

Get a taste for everything this season of Last Chance Kitchen is serving up in the above sneak peek. And tune in to new episodes of Top Chef Thursdays at 8/7c.
