In the show, two chefs compete against each other for a chance to beat Bobby Flay. The two contestants must create a dish with a secret ingredient of Flay's choice. Judges choose who is skilled enough to take down Flay. The winning chef will get to challenge Flay with his or her own surprise signature dish. If he is beat, the winner can tell the world, “I beat Bobby Flay.”

Pawlak will appear on season 36, episode 8, where he will compete against Page Pressley.

The episode will air on Thursday, April 11, at 8 p.m. on the Food Network.
