FEATURED SERIES

Food Network Star
Premiering Sunday, July 7th at 9pm - "Product Pitch"
A big part of being a Food Network Star is communicating big ideas quickly - recipes, brands, concepts, products. Each finalist has to come up with two product samples that represent their unique brand and culinary style. The judges offer feedback to each finalist on both products, and they must choose one to create, package and pitch to a tough panel of successful food executives. One by one the finalists pitch their product and themselves to the panel - who then votes on whether this is a viable product based on presentation and taste. The selection committee then decides who did best overall, and one finalist heads home.
Premiering Sunday, July 14th at 9pm - "Star Charity Auction"
Stars must be adventurous, both on the screen and in the kitchen. Each finalist is challenged to use an off-the-wall ingredient to create a fantastic dish and auction the dish to a roomful of adventurous eaters. The better they sell their dish to the bidders and the more convincing they are, the higher the prices will rise, with all the money being raised for charity. The finalist whose dish is sold for the most money wins the presentation portion of The Challenge and is safe from elimination. The selection committee will then decide who did the best overall and send one finalist home.

Premiering Sunday, July 21st at 9pm - "Food Stories From The Road"
Whether it's in the kitchen or in the field, a Food Network Star is always describing food in a way that brings it to life - helping viewers feel as if they are experiencing the dish first hand. The finalists create an Italian-themed dish using one of three Buitoni products and present in groups of two with a twist: they must present their opponent's dish instead of their own. The contestants are then divided into teams to film a three-minute 'food-story show' about two establishments - a pizza joint and a donut shop. The shows are then screened and critiqued by a team of Star-makers: The Hollywood Reporter Editorial Director Janice Min and Senior Writers Gary Baum and Leslie Bruce. The team voted least successful lands in the bottom three, with one finalist heading home.

Premiering Sunday, July 28th at 9pm - "Menu Impossible"
A Food Network Star must be able to offer tips and solutions for any culinary situation and make information accessible to viewers. One of the most frequently asked questions is "What can I cook with everyday items in my pantry?" so using Kellogg's Special K Cereals and Snacks, the finalists cook up a delicious breakfast, lunch, or dinner dish. Then, special guest Robert Irvine leads the finalists in rehabilitating failing or outdated dishes on a restaurant's menu. The least successful finalist is sent home.
