Selena Gomez gave us quite a treat with her HBO Max show Selena + Chef, and she’ll be cooking up something really special this holiday season. She joined forces with Food Network for the holiday special Selena + Chef: Home for the Holidays, set to premiere in late November.

Selena + Chef was originally conceived as an HBO Max original during the pandemic, and it saw Gomez improving her cooking skills alongside a different professional chef in each episode. Earlier this year, it was announced that she’ll partner up with Food Network for two new cooking shows – and Selena + Chef: Home for the Holidays seems to be one of them.

Gomez will join forces with Eric Adjepong, Alex Guarnaschelli, Michael Symon, and Claudette Zepeda in this holiday special. They’ll help her prepare a series of festive dishes, including roast beef and mashed potatoes, a surf-and-turf Christmas meal featuring steak and lobster, a Mexican feast with tamales, and a New Year brunch featuring shrimp with banana grits and malva pudding.

The four-episode special will premiere on Food Network on November 30, and Gomez said, “It was an honor to have these amazing chefs in [her] kitchen to introduce some of their favorite foods and what makes the holidays special for them.”
