Time For the Finale
Here we goâŚtime for the season 24 finale to begin! Back to the dorms, and we see Jada and Ellie celebrating. The brigade is back with them. Cydni is upset after not making the finale, but time to work on their menus.
Now we have the teams working on their final menus. For Ellie, they are worried about Alexandra and how strong she will be for this final dinner service. On Jadaâs brigade, Anaiya seems to be the issue for this team and is rubbing everyone the wrong way.
For the menus, Ellie is doing a steakhouse-inspired menu. Jada is going more tropical, and itâs inspired by Florida.
Prep Time
The next day arrives, and we see Jada and Ellie head to the kitchen to prep for dinner service. The sous chefs warn them to be strong and not let people walk over them.
Jada has a lot on her plate, and doesnât seem to be handing things off to her brigade. Then Chef Ramsay comes in and wants to chat. He gives them their finale jackets, so things are getting real on âHellâs Kitchenâ season 24.
Alex is struggling with poaching eggs right now. She said sheâs never had this much trouble with them, but the eggs keep winning this battle. It takes some time, but she finally gets the eggs figured out.
Chef Ramsay calls Jada and Ellie into his office. They meet with Chairman Butler from Foxwoods. Itâs all about the tribe and their land. He then gives them a pass from them and three friends to go to their Great Wold Lodge.
They then head to the kitchen, as they see a full dining room. Chef Ramsay introduces them to the diners, and itâs time to start the final Battle of the States. Will it be Nevada or Florida winning tonight?
Final Dinner Service on âHellâs Kitchenâ Season 24
Dinner has started, and the orders have started coming back! Jayden is on fish tonight for Ellie, so he said he has his dancing shoes on. He sends up mussels, but they are too salty, and she sends them back. He fixes it and gets it correct.
For Jada, sheâs got Anaiya on the fish station, which Anaiya said is a smart choice. However, the first scallops go up, and they are cold! Jada sends them back. Anaiya fixes it and brings them up, as Jada then calls everyone up to the pass!
The scallops are undercooked again, so Jada said they all know how to cook. Sheâd rather go slow and be right than rush it. Anaiya gets it right the next time, so apps are going out from both sides.
Now we have Lisa on the meat station for Ellie, and she sends up an undercooked duck. She fixes it, and itâs perfect on the second attempt, as dishes start going out. Now we see Jada filling tickets for her family, so she said these have to be perfect. Jada is very strong and keeping these chefs in line, but they are all making a lot of mistakes.
We now have Chris messing up the garnish station. She decides to switch out Chris with Anthony, as the mistakes are coming too often. The plates are going out now, and Jadaâs family is enjoying their dishes.
VIP Tickets
Itâs time for Ellie to get tickets from her family. The meat comes up perfect, but now we have Alex screwing up the garnish station. They keep waiting for her, as the steak is dying on the pass.
She finally gets it done, and the entrees are going out to Ellieâs family. Jada gets more tickets, and she calls them back. We have Henry sending up perfect pork, but Anaiya is screwing up the fish. It took her three attempts to get the snapper correct, and the entrees are going out.
For Ellie, Chef Ramsay is looking at the proteins Lisa sent up. He thinks the chicken is overcooked, but Ellie thinks itâs fine. She wants to send it out, which Chef Ramsay said she can do. Ellie wonders if this will hurt her chances and pushing back against Chef Ramsay.
The final tickets of the night have come in. Anaiya and Henry both send up perfect fish and steaks, so all set. Ellie finishes her final tickets, so all tickets have been served tonight on âHellâs Kitchenâ season 24.
The diners are filling out their comment cards. Both chefs and their brigades feel confident about them winning, but who will it be?
Contemplation Time
Jada and Ellie thank their brigades. Chef Ramsay has the comment cards in hand. Itâs now time for him to think everything over and make the big decision of who wins tonight!
Back in the dorms, Ellie and Jada look back at their seasons and the turning point for them. Ellie said it was when she had to cook for her life. She survived that, and things only went up from there. For Jada, it was when she joined the Blue Team and vowed to be the youngest winner of âHellâs Kitchen.â
Now we see Chef Ramsay take a look back at some of the highlights from these finalists. He thinks it over and then calls the finalists. He has made his decision, and time for them to come and find out the results!
Results on âHellâs Kitchenâ Season 24
After some final words from Chef Ramsay, itâs time to find out his final decision. They both step up to the doors, but which one is going to open?
We are back, and the door opens for Ellie. She has won season 24 of âHellâs Kitchen.â She gets $250,000 and the Head Chef position at Foxwoods Resort & Casino. Chef Ramsay tells Jada she is so young and has so much in front of her.
