In a Hell's Kitchen first, the 20 aspiring chefs will split up into two teams -- the Red Team will be comprised of all the women and the Blue Team will feature the men -- and present their signature dishes before Ramsay and a live audience in Las Vegas.
The winning team with the most impressive dishes overall will receive a VIP night out and concert, while the losing team must endure an eight-hour long ride back to Los Angeles on a school bus.
During Hell's Kitchen's eleventh season, the chefs will also compete in an obstacle course involving lobsters and prepare a meal for runners and athletes in the hopes of winning rewards such as a trip to wine country on a private jet and a spa day on a yacht. The losing teams will endure scaling hundreds of pounds of fish or scrubbing the kitchen in preparation for dinner service.
In the end, two chefs will square off for the title and coveted job position.
Hell's Kitchen is produced by ITV Studios America in association with A. Smith & Co. Productions, with Arthur Smith, Kent Weed and Ramsay serving as executive producers.
