A new batch of 16 chefs compete to impress Chef Ramsay with hopes of winning a Head Chef position at Araxi Restaurant in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada. Chef Ramsay wastes no time and sends the chefs to the kitchen to create their signature dishes.

The chefs are woken up in the middle of the night and must cook a pasta dinner for local heroes. However, two contestant’s dreams might go up in smoke when they are rushed to the hospital for injuries.

Which team can perfectly prepare the most shrimp is in for a cool surprise, the losers however may lose their lunch. During the dinner service, two chefs serve shrimp scampi in the dining room resulting in shouting match with the last person you'd expect.

Hell's Kitchen opens its doors to host a welcome home party for a U.S. Marine named Otis James. The two teams meet with James' wife and are challenged to create two appetizers and an entrée that meet her approval. The team whose menu gets chosen is treated to a sky-high adventure, while the losers are forced to clean and decorate the dining room for the party. Chef Ramsay wants this to be a special celebration and enlists his wife, Tana Ramsay, to help direct the losing team on how to plan a party. During dinner service, one team can't keep up with the orders and sends out cold food, causing Ramsay to boil over. In the end, one more chef will be sent packing.

Chef Ramsay partners up the chefs for a challenge where they must make perfectly portioned 6-inch sausages. With the competition at a rolling boil, mounting tension between the chefs causes one chef to explode. That evening, Drew Lachey, John O'Hurley, Tom Green, Melinda Clarke, Chris "Kid" Reid and Kristy Swanson, stop by Hell's Kitchen for dinner service. However, when the red team's dishes are sent back to the kitchen for being too salty and the blue team's food is cold, Chef Ramsay flies off the handle.
