Padma Lakshmi Is Back to Burn Pans and Break Hearts in New CBS Cooking Show!

Buy Me A Coffee

Stop everything, put down that sad microwave burrito, and prepare your taste buds for a flavor-packed plot twist: Padma Lakshmi is strutting back into the culinary coliseum! Thatโ€™s rightโ€”after dropping her apron and saying โ€œciaoโ€ to Top Chef in 2023 (after a casual 17-year reign), our kitchen queen is BACK and she’s bringing the heat in a brand-new CBS cooking showdown titled… Americaโ€™s Culinary Cup. Sounds spicy already, doesnโ€™t it?

Coming in hot for the 2025-2026 broadcast season (because apparently, we need that much time to mentally and emotionally prepare), this show is basically the Olympicsโ€”but with more butter and better outfits. According to Variety, the series is bringing together โ€œthe nationโ€™s most decorated chefsโ€ to battle it out in a culinary cage match thatโ€™ll test their creativity, endurance, plating skills, leadership… and probably their ability to smile through the pain of overcooked risotto.

Padma isnโ€™t just hosting this thingโ€”oh no, sheโ€™s pulling a full Beyoncรฉ and producing it too, alongside TV boss Susan Rovner. Thatโ€™s right: sheโ€™s behind the stove and behind the scenes. We love a multitasking icon.

And in true Padma fashion, she dropped a quote with more flavor than a truffle oil drizzle on duck confit:

โ€œWeโ€™re inviting elite chefs from across the country to represent their unique culinary style and battle it out,โ€ she said, probably while sipping something fancier than weโ€™ll ever afford. โ€œThis competition echoes the thrill of sports and the American spirit as we cheer on our favorite chefs.โ€

Translation: Itโ€™s the Super Bowl of sautรฉing. The World Cup of whisking. The WrestleMania of roux.

So get ready to pick your favorite chef, scream at your screen when someone forgets to season their food, and live your best couch critic lifeโ€”because Padmaโ€™s coming to serve drama with a side of delicious.

Let the apron-clad games begin. ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฅ
