The judges force the home cooks work for their food as they all go fishing and are allowed to use only what they caught to make a delicious meal.

After enduring a series of intense pressure tests and grueling challenges, the moment has finally come for one MASTERCHEF contestant to claim the title of America's Best Home Cook. In the season finale, judges Gordon Ramsay, Joe Bastianich and Graham Elliot determine which amateur cook truly has the potential to transform their culinary dreams into reality. The contestants who have made it this far in the competition have earned the judges' respect, but only one will walk away with $250,000 and a cookbook-publishing deal and embark on a life-changing journey.
