Pitmasters

Teams of the world's most elite pitmasters push live fire cooking to its limits as they compete in a non-stop week-long battle for BBQ glory in Food Network's all-new series, Pitmasters. Bold flavor, innovation and mastery of the pit is the name of the game as the teams showcase their unique culinary perspective for a legendary panel of judges including Andrew Zimmern, Jess Pryles, Moe Cason, and Ernest Servantes. From breaking down a whole hog to cooking and serving four essential BBQ proteins on a non-stop rolling schedule, only the most creative and persistent Pitmasters will survive and earn up to $50,000 in prize money. The clock is ticking, and the fight for fire and flavor is on!
