Oklahoma City chefs set to go knife-to-knife Tuesday in ‘Grudge Match’ on Food Network

Oklahoma City chefs Kevin Lee and Jonathon Stranger will step into the ring to battle it out Tuesday as they both return to Food Network for an episode of "Superchef Grudge Match."

Both chefs have made multiple appearances on various Food Network programs in the past. Now, the two will meet and face off, each offering up a prized knife as a wager on one of the station's newest competition shows, hosted by celebrity chef Darnell Ferguson.

Stranger owns Osteria, Bar Ciccetti and El Coyote in Oklahoma City. Lee is the owner of Birdie's in Edmond, purveyor of Korean fried chicken.

Stranger is challenging Lee to determine “once and for all, who is the greatest chef in Oklahoma City,” according to Food Network materials for the show.

Stranger is not unfamiliar with Food Network shows, having appeared on multiple episodes of "Guy’s Grocery Games" and once on "Backyard BBQ Brawl." In his past appearances, he garnered two wins from "Guy's Grocery Games," money he used to help support staff during the pandemic.

Lee also has become somewhat of a regular on the network, previously appearing twice on "Guy's Grocery Games" and on an episode of "Alex vs. America." He claimed victory in his first "Triple-G" appearance and took the top prize versus Iron Chef Alex Guarnaschelli on her own turf.

The chefs will face off in "an epic fried-food fight" on "Superchef Grudge Match," at 8 p.m. Tuesday on Food Network.
