In each episode of Recipe for Disaster, three professional chefs and their cooking partners compete to prepare spectacular dishes under absurdly adverse conditions. The studio transforms into a bizarre new world each week, replete with themed disasters that challenge the chefs in ways they never imagined. They will attempt the perfect sear while stranded on an in-studio "desert island" during monsoon season, prep ramen while pulling off an art heist, or create a show-stopping soufflé while dodging aliens on Mars. To make matters worse, their cooking partners are people from their lives who are total kitchen novices. Who will impress the judges, and whose dishes will succumb to the ridiculous disasters du jour? Ultimately, only one team will be crowned Masters of Disaster!
Three new colorful teams of chefs and buddies discover that it's not all sunshine and unicorns at the end of the rainbow. They'll need the luck of the Irish if they want to create perfect plates while dodging sparkling rainstorms, melting rainbows and even irritating clouds. Host Ann Pornell and culinary experts, Eden Grinshpan and Chef Shahir Massoud judge their sky-high creations and crown the Masters of Disaster.
