Calling on miners for next My Kitchen Rules TV season
WANT to trade your hard hat and for a chef's hat? The new series of My Kitchen Rules might be able to help.
Channel 7's producers are looking for contestants who work in the mining and resource sector.
Successful home cooking duos will have to impress chef judges Pete Evans and Manu Feildel.
Series producer Evan Wilkes said they were hoping to tap into the coal seam and uncover the nation's next top talent.
"It's that great part of Australia. Miners have a lot of character and the big part of MKR is not only cooking, but the characters, and I reckon there are a lot of miners who have great stories in and out of the kitchen," Mr Wilkes said.
"They're not afraid of hard work… and there are some pretty tough guys and girls and there is no reason they don't like to mix it up in the kitchen as well."

You could be mixing ingredients instead of explosives in the competitive cooking game as you serve up dishes to chef judges in an opportunity Mr Wilkes said should not be missed.
"We are looking for Australia's best home cooks… people who are eager and essentially want to have a go and try out," he said.
