During the dessert part of the competition, Grant and Kennedy were really close. But a small mistake by Kennedy gave Grant the edge. Because Grant did so well all along, and he’s a great cook, he ended up winning. The judges loved his three-course meal because it had a wonderful mix of flavours:
- Appetizer: Ravioli al’ Uovo with morelle cream sauce, truffle butter, and shaved truffles.
- Entrée: Pork loin medallions with salmoriglio sauce, agrodolce, celery root purée, and beer-braised fennel and onions.
- Dessert: Torn stout cake with coffee stout mousse, chocolate pizzelle, and coffee ice cream.
Grant winning was a big deal for him. It showed how much he loves cooking. He said thanks to his family for supporting him. Even though Jennifer and Kennedy were tough competitors, Grant always tried to do better than he did before. That’s what helped him win.

What Difficulties Does Grant Faced in MasterChef Season 13?
Grant is a 32-year-old guy from Iowa who sells beer. Even though making desserts wasn’t his best skill, he worked really hard to make his dessert perfect. He knew that to win, every plate had to look exactly the same. When it came to the main course, Grant knew he had to do something special. He made a pork dish using regular ingredients, and he was super proud of it.
Grant believed he had a good chance of winning as he headed into the dessert round. Winning MasterChef meant a lot to him. It was like winning for himself, but also for the Midwest, Iowa, and his hometown of Altoona.
