Food Network is honoring the late Anne Burrell with two special programming events. The beloved chef, who passed away unexpectedly on June 17 at the age of 55, was a fan favorite on the cable cooking channel, starting as Mario Batali’s sous chef on Iron Chef America in 2004 and later hosting 27 seasons of Worst Cooks in America.
On Wednesday, June 25, Food Network will air a special Anne Burrell programming block, showcasing her immense talent and charm. The tribute begins at 10 p.m. ET/PT with an episode of Guy’s Grocery Games titled “All-Stars and A-Lister Dinners,” featuring Burrell alongside Eric Greenspan, Jet Tila, and Marcel Vigneron. At 11 p.m. ET/PT, Worst Cooks in America: Worst of the Worst will air, counting down the top 15 worst dishes in the show’s history. Then, at 11:30 p.m. ET/PT, Worst Cooks in America: Boot Camp Diaries will highlight the chef’s extraordinary mentoring abilities.
On Monday, July 28, the new season of Worst Cooks in America (officially titled Worst Cooks in America: Talented and Terrible) will premiere at 9 p.m. ET/PT, marking Burrell’s final appearance as host and mentor.
