Hell’s Kitchen Season 19 finale preview: Which chef earns the job?

Two chefs remain in the Hell’s Kitchen Season 19 finale. At the end of the episode, one door will open and a bright future in the Gordon Ramsay restaurant group awaits that chef. Do you think that Mary Lou or Kori will earn the title?

According to Fox, the Hell’s Kitchen Season 19 finale, “Hitting the Jackpot” features the following:

"The final two chefs compete in their most important cooking challenge, for a chance at the life-changing grand prize, including a Head Chef position at Gordon Ramsay HELL’S KITCHEN Lake Tahoe at Harvey’s Hotel and Casino and the title of HELL’S KITCHEN Season 19 winner in the all-new “Hitting the Jackpot” season finale episode of HELL’S KITCHEN airing Thursday, April 22 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX."

With both Mary Lou and Kori picking their brigades, the reality is earning the ultimate prize is not just being the best chef. The winner must be a great chef and a strong leader. After all the previous challenges, only one dinner service stands between them and the end goal. But, did the chefs choose the right team to drive them to victory?

At the end of the previous episode, Mary Lou and Kori picked their teams. While some decisions seemed easy, the final chefs picking the brigade was a bit like a school yard game of dodgeball. Which finale player is least likely to screw up?

Looking at each kitchen, the two chefs should be fairly even. It will depend on the menu and how well those dishes adapt to the team’s skills. While Mary Lou and Kori will be on the pass, they need strong chefs to drive them to the finish line.

Truthfully, either chef could win. Although having a woman chef winner seems to be a Hell’s Kitchen finale pattern, the reality is that the best chefs remain. These women earned their spot and should be proud of their journey. Win or lose, both women chefs have a strong culinary career ahead of them.
