THE STEAKS ARE HIGH FOR THE NEWEST BUNCH OF CONTESTANTS ON THE SEASON 15 PREMIERE OF "HELL'S KITCHEN" FRIDAY, JANUARY 15, ON FOX

In the Season 15 premiere of HELL'S KITCHEN, Chef Gordon Ramsay welcomes the newest bunch of contestants into the kitchen. The steaks are high when the contestants travel to Las Vegas and see the kitchen where this season's winner will work as a Head Chef: BLT Steak at Bally's Las Vegas. And, for the first time in HELL'S KITCHEN history, they will compete in that kitchen for the signature dish team challenge. The winning team will earn a ride on the High Roller - the world's tallest Ferris wheel - and get VIP service at Drai's Nightclub, while the losing team prepares a Vegas buffet service, which includes peeling 50 lbs. of shrimp and 1,000 lbs. of potatoes. Later, during their first dinner service, one of the teams will fail early on in the service, prompting Chef Ramsay to kick them out of the kitchen. Find out which contestants will be safe from elimination and whose luck will run out in the all-new "18 Chefs Compete" season premiere episode of HELL'S KITCHEN airing Friday, Jan. 15 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
