The competition is similar to early seasons of''Iron Chef America,'' with two key differences introduced in that show's latter seasons:

1) Both the Iron Chef and the challenger must serve their first dish to the panel of judges within the first 20 minutes of competition (the Chairman does not taste these dishes).  This dish is scored separately from the remainder of the dishes.

2) With 30 minutes remaining in the competition, the Chairman introduces a "culinary curve ball", a kitchen device or an additional ingredient which the chefs must use for at least one of their remaining dishes.<ref name="Canada" />
