Food Network gears up for Ultimate Recipe Showdown 3

News releases are starting to leak potential candidates for the next season of Ultimate Recipe Showdown. The final decisions have not yet been made, but it appears as if the first notifications have been sent.

CommercialAppeal.com lists "Gail Churinetz, who teaches pizza classes at Viking Cooking School and was featured in a home chef profile in The Commercial Appeal, has made the first cut for Food Network's The Ultimate Recipe Showdown. If she's selected, she'll compete against other cooks on the show hosted by Guy Fieri. Weekly winners receive $25,000."

And several sources (not sure which was the originator) recently wrote that "Greg Fontenot of Woodlands, Tex., has a winning streak going. Besides being chosen as a Top Tomato 2009 finalist for this recipe, the 48-year-old scientist has a fairly impressive track record of competitive cooking conquests over the past eight years, including his pending status to appear on Food Network's Ultimate Recipe Showdown. The gingerbread and banana napoleon recipe he submitted for that one sounds first-rate."

Were I to make a conjecture, I'd expect Ultimate Recipe Showdown Season 3 to tape in New York City sometime in late September, 2009.
*update*
Dates are September 22 - 30, 2009 blog post
