List of episodes

The seventeenth season of the American competitive reality television series Hell's Kitchen (officially known as Hell's Kitchen All Stars) began airing on September 29, 2017 and ended on February 2, 2018 on Fox.[1][2] This is the first season in Hell's Kitchen history to have an all star edition as sixteen former contestants from previous seasons return to compete once again (also their first time since Season 8 returned to 16 contestants, instead of 18), and the winner of this season will receive the position as head chef at the first-ever Gordon Ramsay Hell's Kitchen Restaurant at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada. All of the returning chefs made it onto the Black Jackets in their respective seasons. Gordon Ramsay returns as host and head chef, Season 10 winner (and Season 15 sous-chef) Christina Wilson returns as the Red Team's sous-chef replacing Andi Van Willigan-Cutspec, and British MasterChef judge James "Jocky" Petrie makes his Hell's Kitchen debut as the Blue Team's sous-chef replacing Aaron Mitrano. Marino Monferrato returns as the maître d'. The red team won only three of the nine dinner services during the team phase (two outright, one joint). As a result, they are the first team in the show's history to only have one member earn a black jacket. This team's Michelle Tribble, who previously finished in third place in Season 14, won the competition, making her the fifth consecutive female winner of Hell's Kitchen.

Runner-up Benjamin Knack, who previously finished in third place in Season 7 became the first male finalist since Bryant Gallaher in Season 13.

Opening sequence

Ramsay uses pyrokinesis to destroy Hell's Kitchen while leaving the building as the intro ends with the title card featuring him and the all stars. This is the first season that doesn't list contestants individually in the intro.
