About MasterChef Junior
The show that answers a question nobody thought to ask: what happens when you put Gordon Ramsay in a kitchen full of eight-year-olds? The answer is one of the warmest competition shows on television, where Ramsay the drill sergeant becomes Ramsay the encouraging uncle and the cooking is often startlingly good. The briefs are real MasterChef briefs, scaled sensibly, and the show treats a failed dish as a cooking problem, never a character flaw.
The format
Young cooks face mystery boxes, invention tests, team challenges, and pressure tests, with weekly eliminations leading to a three-course finale cook-off. The champion wins the trophy, the title, and $100,000, held in trust until they turn eighteen.
The prize
$100,000, held in trust until the winner turns eighteen
