Host Dan Ahdoot invites four chefs to raid an eclectic assortment of mystery fridges. In round one, the chefs take on fridges from an influencer and a family of four, as they attempt to make dishes that will impress judges Jordan Andino and Jamika Pessoa. In the next round, the three remaining chefs attempt to make their best Sunday supper, choosing from three party-themed fridges, including one with leftovers from a New Year's Eve party. In the final round, it's a carb-loaded race to the finish and a fridge full of $10,000.
About Raid the Fridge
In Raid the Fridge, chefs must use their instincts and test their luck in choosing mystery refrigerators based only on the photos, magnets, recipes and art on their doors in this fast-paced competition series, hosted by food writer and restaurateur Dan Ahdoot. In each episode, four competitors can use only the ingredients from their chosen mystery fridge to create top-notch dishes. But looks can be deceiving, so there is always an element of surprise - sometimes a refrigerator that appears to belong to an avid home cook is filled with takeout, while a crayon art decorated fridge seemingly owned by a family with toddlers could contain high-end gourmet items. Over the course of three rounds, each with a new cooking challenge and a whole new batch of fridges to raid, chefs must impress judges Jordan Andino and Jamika Pessoa with dishes worthy of the grand prize — a fridge full of cash.
