Anne Burrell’s final season of Worst Cooks in America is coming to Food Network. Worst Cooks in America: Talented and Terrible premieres July 28, the network announced on Monday.

Burrell died June 17 at her home in Brooklyn at age 55. An official cause of death has not been determined. The New York Times has reported that her death is being investigated as a possible drug overdose. 

“Anne was a beloved wife, sister, daughter, stepmother, and friend — her smile lit up every room she entered,” Burrell’s family said in a statement shared with People after her death. “Anne’s light radiated far beyond those she knew, touching millions across the world. Though she is no longer with us, her warmth, spirit, and boundless love remain eternal.”

New season of ‘Worst Cooks in America’ coming to Food Network 

Burrell’s last season of Worst Cooks in America showcases recruits who are professional performers and used to stealing the spotlight. But in the kitchen, they are dishing out disasters. She was joined by the new boot camp mentor, Chef Gabe Bertaccini, as they worked together to turn these flops in the kitchen into food masters.

In the premiere, Anne and Gabe attempt to turn a group of culinary train wrecks into kitchen stars. The recruits kick things off by making their signature showstopper dish. Then, in the main dish challenge, they attempt to recreate the chefs’ “winner winner chicken dinner.” Those with promise move on while the rest face elimination. Across the season, with guidance from Anne and Gabe, the recruits will tackle restaurant classics, try to master global cuisines, and compete in the Remote Control Chef challenge, in their bid to be the best of the worst.

Worst Cooks in America: Talented and Terrible premieres Monday, July 28 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Food Network.
