Chef Britt grew up in New Gretna and now resides in Southern Ocean County in Tuckerton. "Currently in its fourth season, “Tournament of Champions” features winners of previous Food Network shows facing off in a March Madness-esque competition, with the chefs competing head-to-head to advance in the bracket. Rescigno, 33, won “Guy’s Grocery Games” on Feb. 15 to secure her spot in the field."

On Sunday night Chef Britt had to take on Iron Chef Jose Garces. Chef Jose is a very accomplished chef and has a fantastic reputation. Chef Britt definitely had her work cut out for her. After the two chefs finished their assignment, which consisted of pork, crab apple, etc. the judges selected the Ocean County Chef as their winner! Amazing, Chef Britt Rescigno is the first ever "eight seed" chef to make it to the "Final Four".
