CBS Cooks Up First Culinary Reality Series

CBS has ordered up Beat the Chefs — its first culinary reality series, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The show will pit professional chefs against skilled home cooks as each side attempts to whip up the best version of the amateurs' classic family recipes. Judges will vote for the winner, who receives a cash prize.
