CAN YOUR FAMILY HANDLE THE HEAT? ABC'S 'FAMILY FOOD FIGHT' IS COOKING UP SOME COMPETITION, AND WE WANT TO SEE WHAT YOU'VE GOT!

Nationwide Search Kicks Off for Culinary Competition Series

Prep your oven mitts and set your timers, ABC's "Family Food Fight" is on a search for the most food-savvy families in the country and could be coming to a city near you! Don't miss out on the opportunity for your family to serve up some delicious dishes and crazy competition.

Based on Australia's hit format and hosted by restaurateur, food maven and New York Times best-selling cookbook author Ayesha Curry, "Family Food Fight" will feature eight families from across the country sharing a common kitchen and a common goal: to claim the title of America's No. 1 Food Family and take home a $100,000 cash prize. Family teams will pull out their best culinary moves in the kitchen, serving up authentic family dishes and drama. Tapping into each family's uniquely diverse cultural heritage, along with their countless culinary influences, "Family Food Fight" will take homestyle cooking to a new level as family recipes rich in tradition and shared over generations are put on display.

"Cooking is such an important part of my family life, and I can't wait to find others from across America who share that passion for creating delicious dishes and have great stories to tell," said Curry.

Calling all home cooks - do you and your family dominate in the kitchen? Whether you enjoy cooking delightful desserts or a fancy feast, incredible Italian food or a great tasting burger, we want to hear from you!
