Are you psyched for the Hell’s Kitchen season finale? Do you have a favorite chef you think really deserves to win it all?  How’d you like to cheer on your favorite, while watching the finale with him or her (and a few of this season’s other contestants), at one of Las Vegas’ best barbecue spots?

If you’re a fan of the show, you already know that the last two seasons were shot in Las Vegas. And for the Season 20 finale, six of the contestants (including the three finalists) will be back in town for a watch party.

On Monday, September 13, Big B’s Texas BBQ will host the official Hell’s Kitchen “Young Guns” Season 20 finale viewing party at its Fort Apache Rad location, and a half dozen of the show’s chefs are expected to be in attendance. Antonio Ruiz, Emily Hersh, Kiya Wilhem, Megan Gill, Trenton Garvey, and Victoria Sonora will all be returning to town for the shindig, which will run from 6:30 to 10:30 pm at the Big B's location at 6115 S. Fort Apache Rd. They’ll be watching to see wither Wilhem, Gill or Garvey is crowned the season’s champ, and awarded the head chef role at Gordon Ramsay Steak in Paris Las Vegas.

The event is open to the public – but you’ll probably want to get there early if you hope to secure a table.
