If the show maintains its release schedule, we can expect "Next Level Chef" season 4 to air sometime between July and September 2023. However, it's essential to remember that production schedules can sometimes be delayed due to various factors, such as casting changes, location issues, or unforeseen circumstances.

Additionally, Fox has not yet renewed the show for a fourth season, although it's highly likely given the series' popularity and critical acclaim. Once the renewal is official, we can expect more concrete information regarding the air date.

While there haven't been any official announcements regarding the air date for season 4, some sources have hinted at a possible late 2023 or early 2024 release. However, these rumors should be taken with a grain of salt until confirmed by the network or production team.

One interesting tidbit that has surfaced is the potential addition of new judges to the panel. Although Gordon Ramsay is expected to return, there are speculations that some of the current judges, such as Nyesha Arrington and Richard Blais, might not be back. If true, this could lead to some exciting changes in the dynamic of the show.
