Kitchen Boss is an American television series that currently airs on TLC, hosted by Buddy Valastro, the star of Cake Boss. The weekday series debuted January 25, 2011, with a second season debuting January 31, 2012.

Unlike the documentary series Cake Boss and the reality series Next Great Baker, Kitchen Boss is a studio-based, straight cooking program, in which Buddy cooks various Italian-American dishes from his family's recipes. Buddy is usually joined in the kitchen by members of his family and other special guests.[1]

All the recipes featured in this program feature recipes that can be prepared in minimal time, using ingredients that are easily-obtainable and affordable; each meal featured generally consists of the main dish, a side dish and a dessert. Each recipe is also easy to follow, with Buddy referring to the website for additional details and instructions.
