Sixteen of the worst cooks in America, including a sportscaster, a feisty granny and a professional balloon artist, arrive at boot camp with dreams of putting their kitchen nightmares behind them.

The recruits step up to the plate and throw darts at a map to determine which of the 50 states will inspire their own craveable creations.
