Hell's Kitchen Season 25: Meet the women competing

"Hell’s Kitchen" is marking its 25th season with contestants ages 25 and younger who grew up watching the show.

Twenty-five years after it first put aspiring chefs through the culinary wringer, "Hell's Kitchen" is celebrating a milestone season with a new generation of competitors who grew up watching the show.

The unscripted series follows chefs as they compete in a series of demanding challenges for the chance to become the ultimate winner. Contestants are divided into two teams at the start of the season, with women on the red team and men on the blue team.

"They're hungry, and keen to make their mark on this historic season," Ramsay said in a first-look video teasing the new season. "It may be one of the best seasons, because of the talent, it's just like no other."

The season was filmed, once again, at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Connecticut, which is home to one of Ramsay's Hell's Kitchen restaurants.

The anniversary season will also look back at the show's history, featuring former winners, memorable challenges, celebrity guests and culinary figures, as well as an anniversary dinner.
