1
00:00:01,034 --> 00:00:02,368
Hunter, everybody
loves a big party.
2
00:00:02,370 --> 00:00:04,903
Absolutely. Good times
and good friends.
3
00:00:04,905 --> 00:00:06,405
And good food, that's the key.
4
00:00:06,407 --> 00:00:07,773
[Cayla] Oh, yeah,
those look good.
5
00:00:07,775 --> 00:00:09,274
[Guy] So, tonight,
we're bringing back
6
00:00:09,276 --> 00:00:11,210
three non-professional
food fanatics
7
00:00:11,212 --> 00:00:13,846
with a Triple G win
under their belt to see
8
00:00:13,848 --> 00:00:15,714
who is the host with the most.
9
00:00:15,716 --> 00:00:17,683
That's just how it works
around this joint.
10
00:00:17,685 --> 00:00:18,751
They all wanna be the house
11
00:00:18,753 --> 00:00:21,120
that everyone comes to
for all the big events.
12
00:00:21,122 --> 00:00:23,522
You've gotta have
a big fat burger, right?
13
00:00:23,524 --> 00:00:26,258
They'll have to prepare
the perfect plate for not one,
14
00:00:26,260 --> 00:00:27,893
but two different parties
15
00:00:27,895 --> 00:00:30,396
while playing
our evil party games.
16
00:00:30,398 --> 00:00:31,930
Oh, my God.
17
00:00:31,932 --> 00:00:33,365
Any of this on sale?
18
00:00:33,367 --> 00:00:34,600
Honey, this is Flavortown.
19
00:00:34,602 --> 00:00:36,201
What you see is what you get.
20
00:00:36,203 --> 00:00:37,336
Pow! Pow!
21
00:00:37,338 --> 00:00:39,838
You're in my head, Rocco.
You're in my head.
22
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:41,040
We're not messing
around tonight.
23
00:00:41,042 --> 00:00:42,441
You're invited to the big event.
24
00:00:42,443 --> 00:00:44,510
It's right now on
Guy's Grocery Games.
25
00:00:44,512 --> 00:00:45,544
Cheers, Hunter.
26
00:00:48,248 --> 00:00:49,348
All right, Hunter,
27
00:00:49,350 --> 00:00:51,283
let's meet our returning
food fanatics.
28
00:00:51,285 --> 00:00:53,352
Now, first up,
we have Nick Farrer,
29
00:00:53,354 --> 00:00:54,887
the former Minor League pitcher,
30
00:00:54,889 --> 00:00:57,456
who threw the competition
a curveball
31
00:00:57,458 --> 00:00:59,825
in our Anti-Resolution Games.
32
00:01:01,161 --> 00:01:03,862
This food fanatic won
in Flavortown
33
00:01:03,864 --> 00:01:04,963
and I'm back.
34
00:01:04,965 --> 00:01:06,298
So, with my win,
35
00:01:06,300 --> 00:01:09,968
my pork banh mi on
the Anti-Resolution episode,
36
00:01:09,970 --> 00:01:12,771
I'm ready to pitch
my way to another victory.
37
00:01:12,773 --> 00:01:14,473
[Guy] Big hitter, big hitter.
38
00:01:14,475 --> 00:01:17,443
I am a food fanatic.
39
00:01:17,445 --> 00:01:19,511
I have wood-burning pizza oven,
40
00:01:19,513 --> 00:01:21,013
a teppanyaki table,
41
00:01:21,015 --> 00:01:22,514
two different smokers
42
00:01:22,516 --> 00:01:25,384
and I have a gigantic
Santa Maria crank grill.
43
00:01:25,386 --> 00:01:27,286
If that does not say
food fanatic,
44
00:01:27,288 --> 00:01:29,822
I have no idea what does.
45
00:01:29,824 --> 00:01:33,592
- Yeah.
- Go get him, VP.
46
00:01:33,594 --> 00:01:35,694
Next, we have Emerson Bartolome,
47
00:01:35,696 --> 00:01:36,829
San Diego surfer
48
00:01:36,831 --> 00:01:39,298
who wiped out his fellow
global food fanatics
49
00:01:39,300 --> 00:01:42,101
with his terrific take on
Filipino comfort food.
50
00:01:42,103 --> 00:01:43,602
- That's a mouthful.
- It is a mouthful.
51
00:01:43,604 --> 00:01:45,337
- I mean, what he made was.
- [Hunter] Yeah, I know.
52
00:01:45,339 --> 00:01:48,240
Adobo is like the knocking on
heaven's door Filipino cuisine.
53
00:01:48,242 --> 00:01:50,008
- That is phenomenal.
- Thank you.
54
00:01:50,010 --> 00:01:51,243
So, growing up
when I was younger,
55
00:01:51,245 --> 00:01:52,978
I was given the nickname
Big Thunder.
56
00:01:52,980 --> 00:01:56,115
I bring big flavor
to every party
57
00:01:56,117 --> 00:01:57,149
that I host.
58
00:01:58,585 --> 00:01:59,918
I'm just a regular guy,
59
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:02,221
an IT manager,
and I would never have thought
60
00:02:02,223 --> 00:02:03,922
in my wildest dreams
that I'd ever cook
61
00:02:03,924 --> 00:02:05,390
on Guy's Grocery Games.
62
00:02:05,392 --> 00:02:06,558
But I'm here
63
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,026
and I'm doing it big.
64
00:02:08,028 --> 00:02:09,962
-Go get him up, buddy. Go get him.
-What up? What up?
65
00:02:12,232 --> 00:02:14,166
And finally, Hunter,
there's Cayla Atha,
66
00:02:14,168 --> 00:02:16,235
the food blogger
and fitness instructor
67
00:02:16,237 --> 00:02:19,738
whose sinful sandwiches
won her $10,000.
68
00:02:19,740 --> 00:02:21,173
You know what that is?
69
00:02:21,175 --> 00:02:22,741
- A lot of bread.
- A lot of bread.
70
00:02:24,744 --> 00:02:26,478
I may like to cook healthy food,
71
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:27,813
but don't get it twisted.
72
00:02:27,815 --> 00:02:29,748
My sandwiches were sinful enough
73
00:02:29,750 --> 00:02:31,383
to win me $10,000.
74
00:02:31,385 --> 00:02:32,584
Give it up for Chef Cayla.
75
00:02:32,586 --> 00:02:33,719
[all cheering]
76
00:02:33,721 --> 00:02:35,687
Rock star,
a full-blown rock star.
77
00:02:35,689 --> 00:02:38,023
[Cayla] Hosting makes
me explode with happiness,
78
00:02:38,025 --> 00:02:39,558
so if I'm cooking happy,
79
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:40,759
you better watch out.
80
00:02:40,761 --> 00:02:42,027
- What's up?
- What's up? Go get 'em.
81
00:02:44,230 --> 00:02:45,731
They're gonna get it today.
82
00:02:45,733 --> 00:02:47,132
So glad to have you.
83
00:02:47,134 --> 00:02:49,168
This is a big deal.
84
00:02:49,170 --> 00:02:51,403
Now, you may not cook
for a living,
85
00:02:51,405 --> 00:02:54,039
but you clearly live
for the joy of cooking.
86
00:02:54,041 --> 00:02:55,140
Oh, yeah.
87
00:02:55,142 --> 00:02:56,708
[Hunter] But seeing
as how you're all
88
00:02:56,710 --> 00:02:59,077
the $10,000 Triple G winners,
89
00:02:59,079 --> 00:03:01,413
the competition just got harder.
90
00:03:01,415 --> 00:03:04,249
Tonight, we have two
tough challenges
91
00:03:04,251 --> 00:03:06,084
that will put your both
your culinary cred
92
00:03:06,086 --> 00:03:08,420
and your hosting skills
to the ultimate test.
93
00:03:08,422 --> 00:03:09,955
[Guy] The person with
the lowest score
94
00:03:09,957 --> 00:03:11,323
at the end of the first round,
95
00:03:11,325 --> 00:03:12,658
you're leaving the party early,
96
00:03:12,660 --> 00:03:14,626
but the chef with
the highest combined score
97
00:03:14,628 --> 00:03:15,928
at the end of both rounds
98
00:03:15,930 --> 00:03:17,329
will get the title
of what, Hunter?
99
00:03:17,331 --> 00:03:18,430
The Host with the Most.
100
00:03:18,432 --> 00:03:20,098
- The Host with the Most.
- The Host with the Most.
101
00:03:20,100 --> 00:03:21,934
And a chance to shop
Flavortown Market
102
00:03:21,936 --> 00:03:24,803
for up to $20,000.
103
00:03:24,805 --> 00:03:25,938
- Oh!
- Yes!
104
00:03:25,940 --> 00:03:28,240
[Guy] Since you often
just cook for fun,
105
00:03:28,242 --> 00:03:30,209
I bet you really
like hosting parties
106
00:03:30,211 --> 00:03:32,911
and sharing delicious dishes
with friends and family
107
00:03:32,913 --> 00:03:35,047
- and hanging out, correct?
- Yes, sir.
108
00:03:35,049 --> 00:03:36,915
Okay, I mean, is there
any particular event?
109
00:03:36,917 --> 00:03:39,051
- Super Bowl.
- Super Bowl. Come on.
110
00:03:39,053 --> 00:03:40,719
Big Game Day is one
of my all-time favorites.
111
00:03:40,721 --> 00:03:42,387
So, let's get the party started.
112
00:03:42,389 --> 00:03:43,889
Party started.
I want you to make...
113
00:03:43,891 --> 00:03:45,791
We were talking about it.
You just said Big Game Day.
114
00:03:45,793 --> 00:03:46,992
Let's do that, let's go with
115
00:03:46,994 --> 00:03:50,062
a Game Day Party Challenge.
116
00:03:50,064 --> 00:03:51,263
- Nice.
- [Guy] It's real key here.
117
00:03:51,265 --> 00:03:52,497
Show off your hosting skills
118
00:03:52,499 --> 00:03:54,199
by preparing a plate
119
00:03:54,201 --> 00:03:56,368
of Game Day Bites.
120
00:03:56,370 --> 00:03:59,071
It is gonna score
big with the judges.
121
00:03:59,073 --> 00:04:00,539
[Hunter] But here's
the important lesson,
122
00:04:00,541 --> 00:04:01,707
when I was in college
123
00:04:01,709 --> 00:04:03,108
is to be a good host,
124
00:04:03,110 --> 00:04:04,643
you have to know
how to throw a party
125
00:04:04,645 --> 00:04:05,844
without breaking your budget
126
00:04:05,846 --> 00:04:07,713
'cause college kids don't
have a lot of money, right?
127
00:04:07,715 --> 00:04:09,715
I'm sorry, we're breaking
your allowance
128
00:04:09,717 --> 00:04:12,050
- that your parents give you.
- Shh, don't tell them that.
129
00:04:14,153 --> 00:04:16,355
This is actually what your
competition's gonna be.
130
00:04:16,357 --> 00:04:18,624
You got yourself
into a Budget Battle.
131
00:04:18,626 --> 00:04:20,058
Okay, I'm gonna give you
all the money
132
00:04:20,060 --> 00:04:22,127
that I have in my pocket.
133
00:04:22,129 --> 00:04:23,895
All right, so let's do this.
134
00:04:23,897 --> 00:04:25,163
Let's give you 25,
135
00:04:26,232 --> 00:04:27,966
- Ooh.
- Twenty-five,
136
00:04:27,968 --> 00:04:29,034
[Cayla] Thank you.
137
00:04:29,036 --> 00:04:31,036
Twenty-five, everybody gets 25.
138
00:04:31,038 --> 00:04:33,372
You have 30 minutes to shop,
139
00:04:33,374 --> 00:04:36,775
purchase, prepare
and plate your Game Day Bites.
140
00:04:36,777 --> 00:04:38,610
Now, be sure to pay
for your items
141
00:04:38,612 --> 00:04:40,212
at the register where
our cashier, Wendy,
142
00:04:40,214 --> 00:04:41,480
will be checking you out.
143
00:04:41,482 --> 00:04:43,382
[Guy] The one thing
I want you to remember,
144
00:04:43,384 --> 00:04:44,883
if you have money left,
145
00:04:44,885 --> 00:04:47,519
you can go get something and
come back and start shopping for it.
146
00:04:47,521 --> 00:04:49,388
You have $3, $2 left,
147
00:04:49,390 --> 00:04:51,556
I mean, save it to the last
$1 you have
148
00:04:51,558 --> 00:04:54,660
because you... you go home
with money in your pocket
149
00:04:54,662 --> 00:04:57,496
and those judges will eat
you alive about that.
150
00:04:57,498 --> 00:04:58,830
Okay? Just remember that.
151
00:04:58,832 --> 00:05:00,866
[Hunter] 'Cause you can get
like, what? You probably get
152
00:05:00,868 --> 00:05:03,502
- a lime for 13 cents, right?
- Right, exactly.
153
00:05:03,504 --> 00:05:04,903
- [Hunter] Maybe less.
- And you guys think
154
00:05:04,905 --> 00:05:06,538
that you've outsmarted
me in the game.
155
00:05:06,540 --> 00:05:08,106
- No.
- And you think, 'cause I watch you,
156
00:05:08,108 --> 00:05:09,675
'cause you guys have been
pretty quick on it.
157
00:05:09,677 --> 00:05:11,376
When you all competed,
you were really smart.
158
00:05:11,378 --> 00:05:13,845
- On the three, two, one...
- You guys were on it, you had watched so many.
159
00:05:13,847 --> 00:05:15,280
but it's been
rolling for a while now.
160
00:05:15,282 --> 00:05:16,415
Oh, my God!
161
00:05:16,417 --> 00:05:17,716
[Cayla laughing]
162
00:05:17,718 --> 00:05:18,850
This is the finale, folks.
163
00:05:18,852 --> 00:05:20,052
We're not messing around today.
164
00:05:21,454 --> 00:05:24,222
It's game day, baby.
I'm pumped, let's go.
165
00:05:24,224 --> 00:05:25,857
All right, let's see.
166
00:05:25,859 --> 00:05:26,925
By budget stinks,
167
00:05:26,927 --> 00:05:28,694
I wanna get what I want to get.
168
00:05:28,696 --> 00:05:30,429
I wanna cook what I wanna cook.
169
00:05:30,431 --> 00:05:32,464
I don't want someone
to hand me a couple bucks
170
00:05:32,466 --> 00:05:33,832
and say, "Have a party."
171
00:05:33,834 --> 00:05:35,867
So, that's six bucks.
172
00:05:35,869 --> 00:05:37,336
Let's start with that.
173
00:05:37,338 --> 00:05:38,704
[Nick]
So, for my Game Day Bites,
174
00:05:38,706 --> 00:05:41,673
I'm thinking I gotta do
like a slider,
175
00:05:41,675 --> 00:05:43,241
really kicked up burger.
176
00:05:43,243 --> 00:05:45,210
Because when you're
from Chicago,
177
00:05:45,212 --> 00:05:48,146
putting a fat piece
of beef between two buns,
178
00:05:48,148 --> 00:05:49,915
that's called Game Day,
179
00:05:49,917 --> 00:05:51,917
I'm gonna spice this burger up.
180
00:05:51,919 --> 00:05:53,952
So, I grew up in South Chicago,
181
00:05:53,954 --> 00:05:56,188
but when I was 18,
I moved to Arizona.
182
00:05:56,190 --> 00:05:57,756
So I'm thinking,
I wanna make this burger
183
00:05:57,758 --> 00:06:00,325
like a little
southwestern style.
184
00:06:00,327 --> 00:06:02,761
So, I'm gonna make
a pico de avocado.
185
00:06:02,763 --> 00:06:04,229
One of these limes.
186
00:06:04,231 --> 00:06:06,298
Think of pico de avocado as
187
00:06:06,300 --> 00:06:07,766
the best pico de gallo...
188
00:06:07,768 --> 00:06:09,000
Roma tomato.
189
00:06:09,002 --> 00:06:10,435
but add avocado.
190
00:06:10,437 --> 00:06:11,770
Avocados.
191
00:06:11,772 --> 00:06:13,505
There's no holds barred, baby.
192
00:06:13,507 --> 00:06:15,307
These, this is what
I get at home.
193
00:06:15,309 --> 00:06:16,842
This is what I get at home
194
00:06:16,844 --> 00:06:18,276
Wait, 3.99,
195
00:06:18,278 --> 00:06:19,911
2.69 that'll work.
196
00:06:19,913 --> 00:06:21,913
[Nick] I wanna start doing
the math in my head.
197
00:06:21,915 --> 00:06:23,615
[Nick] The cilantro,
198
00:06:23,617 --> 00:06:26,151
two jalapenos, so that's two.
199
00:06:26,153 --> 00:06:27,819
[Nick] So, my strategy
for Budget Battle
200
00:06:27,821 --> 00:06:30,956
is to spend as much money
as I possibly can,
201
00:06:30,958 --> 00:06:32,891
so I could put as much flavor
202
00:06:32,893 --> 00:06:35,460
on that plate
as humanly possible.
203
00:06:35,462 --> 00:06:37,095
All right, is any of this
on sale?
204
00:06:37,097 --> 00:06:38,463
Honey, this is Flavortown.
205
00:06:38,465 --> 00:06:41,299
-It's what you see is what
you get, -All right. I got it.
206
00:06:41,301 --> 00:06:42,801
Cilantro.
207
00:06:42,803 --> 00:06:45,070
- Nothing left in your basket?
- No.
208
00:06:45,072 --> 00:06:48,140
Within 72 cents,
I think I nailed it.
209
00:06:48,142 --> 00:06:49,274
Twenty-five dollars,
210
00:06:49,276 --> 00:06:51,410
I would, I would spend
that in the first aisle.
211
00:06:51,412 --> 00:06:52,511
What would you do, Aarti?
212
00:06:52,513 --> 00:06:54,579
Oh, my gosh,
$25 is not that much money.
213
00:06:54,581 --> 00:06:56,281
- It goes faster.
- Yeah.
214
00:06:56,283 --> 00:06:58,350
Tortilla chips, tortilla
chips, tortilla chips.
215
00:06:58,352 --> 00:07:00,252
[Emerson] Budget for Game Day,
who does that?
216
00:07:00,254 --> 00:07:03,188
But I'm gonna show them
what Game Day is all about.
217
00:07:03,190 --> 00:07:04,523
3.99.
218
00:07:04,525 --> 00:07:05,624
Living in San Diego,
219
00:07:05,626 --> 00:07:07,659
I'm a big football
and baseball fan.
220
00:07:07,661 --> 00:07:09,861
And during game days,
I love hosting parties.
221
00:07:09,863 --> 00:07:11,196
I'm making shrimp ceviche,
222
00:07:11,198 --> 00:07:13,198
is a staple, and it's on
the cheaper side.
223
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,033
Bouillon cubes, bouillon cubes.
224
00:07:15,035 --> 00:07:16,701
[Emerson]
Making a dish under $25
225
00:07:16,703 --> 00:07:18,003
is so difficult for me
226
00:07:18,005 --> 00:07:19,738
because I never really
think about the price
227
00:07:19,740 --> 00:07:21,173
when I go grocery shopping,
228
00:07:21,175 --> 00:07:23,508
Today, I'm gonna have
to pay attention to prices
229
00:07:23,510 --> 00:07:25,143
and make sure I get it done.
230
00:07:25,145 --> 00:07:26,244
[Emerson sighs]
231
00:07:26,246 --> 00:07:27,412
Got my game face on.
232
00:07:29,515 --> 00:07:30,882
- Can I put in my basket now?
- [Wendy] No.
233
00:07:32,585 --> 00:07:33,718
$16.91.
234
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,921
[Emerson] I have $8.09
left over.
235
00:07:35,923 --> 00:07:37,322
Plenty to come back with.
236
00:07:37,324 --> 00:07:38,657
Now you can put
it in your basket.
237
00:07:41,561 --> 00:07:42,627
Okay.
238
00:07:42,629 --> 00:07:44,529
Tortillas, tortillas.
239
00:07:44,531 --> 00:07:45,997
[Cayla]
I'm a little overwhelmed
240
00:07:45,999 --> 00:07:48,033
being in this big,
beautiful store...
241
00:07:48,035 --> 00:07:49,301
No, not that aisle.
242
00:07:49,303 --> 00:07:52,070
[Cayla] ...and only having
$25 to spend.
243
00:07:52,072 --> 00:07:54,506
Do I have to do math
while I'm shopping?
244
00:07:54,508 --> 00:07:55,674
Cheap milk.
245
00:07:55,676 --> 00:07:57,809
When people hear Game Day Bites,
246
00:07:57,811 --> 00:07:59,511
you automatically think
247
00:07:59,513 --> 00:08:02,113
rich, cheesy, greasy.
248
00:08:02,115 --> 00:08:04,983
Right away, I'm thinking
Tex-Mex nachos.
249
00:08:04,985 --> 00:08:07,018
Where's that beef and bacon?
250
00:08:08,488 --> 00:08:09,821
Okay, got to go to produce.
251
00:08:09,823 --> 00:08:11,223
[Cayla] I'm always
trying to find ways
252
00:08:11,225 --> 00:08:13,658
to just lighten some recipes up.
253
00:08:13,660 --> 00:08:17,262
Every good nacho needs
a great cheese sauce
254
00:08:17,264 --> 00:08:19,564
and my version,
we're going vegan.
255
00:08:19,566 --> 00:08:21,399
Get it, cheap onion.
256
00:08:21,401 --> 00:08:22,634
[Cayla]
You can make vegan cheese
257
00:08:22,636 --> 00:08:25,370
with some very
inexpensive ingredients.
258
00:08:25,372 --> 00:08:26,538
Nutritional yeast.
259
00:08:26,540 --> 00:08:29,407
But the nutritional yeast
is the secret weapon.
260
00:08:29,409 --> 00:08:31,710
It tastes so cheesy
without any dairy.
261
00:08:31,712 --> 00:08:33,778
Nutritional yeast.
262
00:08:33,780 --> 00:08:35,313
Ooh, there you're hiding, okay.
263
00:08:35,315 --> 00:08:38,650
[Cayla] My strategy is to just
recognize the price,
264
00:08:38,652 --> 00:08:40,185
hope that it works out
at the end
265
00:08:40,187 --> 00:08:42,487
and say a little prayer
as I'm checking out.
266
00:08:42,489 --> 00:08:44,756
- [Wendy] $24.16.
- [Cayla] Oh, carrot.
267
00:08:44,758 --> 00:08:46,157
[chuckles]
268
00:08:46,159 --> 00:08:48,793
- $24.42.
- A shallot maybe.
269
00:08:48,795 --> 00:08:50,595
I've never seen it go like this.
270
00:08:50,597 --> 00:08:52,097
- $24.77.
- Yes!
271
00:08:52,099 --> 00:08:54,199
- That is down to the wire.
- Wow.
272
00:08:54,201 --> 00:08:55,233
[Cayla] All right, thank you.
273
00:08:56,335 --> 00:08:57,435
Oh boy!
274
00:08:57,437 --> 00:08:59,070
And here to critique
our party dishes
275
00:08:59,072 --> 00:09:00,505
are people who have hosted
276
00:09:00,507 --> 00:09:02,440
a party or two, the judges.
277
00:09:02,442 --> 00:09:04,242
We have Pacific Coast
restaurateur
278
00:09:04,244 --> 00:09:07,145
who's been known to make
an offal good dinner party,
279
00:09:07,147 --> 00:09:10,215
-the one and only, Chef
Chris Cosentino, -[Aarti] Whoo!
280
00:09:10,217 --> 00:09:11,950
Spice guru and cookbook author
281
00:09:11,952 --> 00:09:14,819
who knows how to throw
a fabulous Aarti party,
282
00:09:14,821 --> 00:09:17,122
the one and only,
Chef Aarti Sequeira.
283
00:09:17,124 --> 00:09:20,158
Legendary chef, James Beard
award-winning author
284
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,360
who's hosted a lot
of cook signing parties
285
00:09:22,362 --> 00:09:24,296
and a few others,
we can't talk about
286
00:09:24,298 --> 00:09:27,499
the Rocco Dispirito.
287
00:09:27,501 --> 00:09:29,267
Okay, you think about parties,
288
00:09:29,269 --> 00:09:30,635
I've never thrown a party.
289
00:09:30,637 --> 00:09:32,537
- I've never been to one or two.
- No.
290
00:09:32,539 --> 00:09:33,772
I don't even know
how to spell it.
291
00:09:33,774 --> 00:09:35,340
- I think it's with an I-E?
- [Aarti laughing]
292
00:09:35,342 --> 00:09:36,808
Favorite thing on a party menu.
293
00:09:36,810 --> 00:09:39,344
I'm a queso fundido guy
when it comes to sports.
294
00:09:39,346 --> 00:09:40,946
Aarti, Party?
295
00:09:40,948 --> 00:09:42,847
- I love chicken wings.
- [Guy] Good.
296
00:09:42,849 --> 00:09:45,350
And, Rocco, your high
end parties on Fifth Avenue,
297
00:09:45,352 --> 00:09:48,119
is it mostly just
caviar, beluga and--
298
00:09:48,121 --> 00:09:49,854
[Rocco] I like
fried things for a party.
299
00:09:49,856 --> 00:09:51,656
Those kinds of things
that are easy to eat.
300
00:09:51,658 --> 00:09:54,859
Nachos, ceviche and burgers
coming at you.
301
00:09:54,861 --> 00:09:56,027
- We'll see.
- [Rocco] Nice.
302
00:09:56,029 --> 00:09:57,729
[Guy] Twenty-four minutes.
303
00:09:59,332 --> 00:10:00,332
All right.
304
00:10:00,334 --> 00:10:03,101
[Nick] I'm making
a southwestern style slider
305
00:10:03,103 --> 00:10:05,704
with the little fresh guacamole
306
00:10:05,706 --> 00:10:07,339
- and some pico de gallo.
- That's the bite?
307
00:10:07,341 --> 00:10:09,708
Yeah, it's gonna be like
a smaller slider type.
308
00:10:09,710 --> 00:10:12,143
-Okay,
-Got to do an ode to, uh,
309
00:10:12,145 --> 00:10:13,712
to the southwest here.
310
00:10:13,714 --> 00:10:15,180
[Nick] First thing,
I get started with
311
00:10:15,182 --> 00:10:16,848
is roasting these
poblano peppers.
312
00:10:16,850 --> 00:10:20,352
If there was ever a spokesman
for poblanos in the country,
313
00:10:20,354 --> 00:10:21,486
sign me up.
314
00:10:21,488 --> 00:10:22,721
I'm in.
315
00:10:22,723 --> 00:10:24,389
I get these loaded up
with some spice.
316
00:10:24,391 --> 00:10:25,991
Next, I gotta work on my sliders
317
00:10:25,993 --> 00:10:27,158
'cause if I'm gonna say
318
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,060
this is
a southwestern style burger,
319
00:10:29,062 --> 00:10:31,029
I can't just have salt
and pepper in the meat.
320
00:10:31,031 --> 00:10:32,697
I gotta give it something.
321
00:10:32,699 --> 00:10:34,866
I grab a can
of chipotle peppers.
322
00:10:34,868 --> 00:10:36,001
Here we go.
323
00:10:36,003 --> 00:10:37,602
I love smoky flavor.
324
00:10:37,604 --> 00:10:39,337
And when I think
of burgers and game day,
325
00:10:39,339 --> 00:10:42,307
something has got
to come off the grill.
326
00:10:42,309 --> 00:10:43,808
[Aarti] Nick has chosen to make
327
00:10:43,810 --> 00:10:46,277
meat the star of his
game day bite
328
00:10:46,279 --> 00:10:47,646
[Rocco] Be careful
about the size here
329
00:10:47,648 --> 00:10:49,547
'cause Guy did
emphasize the word bite.
330
00:10:49,549 --> 00:10:50,682
That's game plate.
331
00:10:50,684 --> 00:10:52,150
So, he makes a big hamburger,
332
00:10:52,152 --> 00:10:53,551
he's gonna be in trouble.
333
00:10:53,553 --> 00:10:56,321
Having you guys next to me
is a blessing and a curse.
334
00:10:56,323 --> 00:10:58,056
Nick, make it small,
make it a bite.
335
00:10:58,058 --> 00:11:00,025
[Nick] They can't be too small
'cause I want them
336
00:11:00,027 --> 00:11:02,260
to actually have
something of sustenance.
337
00:11:02,262 --> 00:11:03,728
Make it small, buddy.
338
00:11:03,730 --> 00:11:06,297
You're in my head, Rocco.
You're in my head.
339
00:11:06,299 --> 00:11:07,832
I already won once.
340
00:11:07,834 --> 00:11:09,567
But anyone can do anything once.
341
00:11:09,569 --> 00:11:11,136
Can I actually do it again?
342
00:11:17,677 --> 00:11:19,444
[Guy] Twenty minutes.
343
00:11:19,446 --> 00:11:21,646
[Aarti] This is not just about
making a game day bite,
344
00:11:21,648 --> 00:11:23,048
it's also about showing us
345
00:11:23,050 --> 00:11:25,316
how you can stretch your dollar.
346
00:11:25,318 --> 00:11:27,118
And Nick is showing us
that he can really
347
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,187
- get a lot for his money.
- Okay.
348
00:11:29,189 --> 00:11:31,489
I would like to see the receipt
349
00:11:31,491 --> 00:11:34,426
for all of the goods
that Nick got for $25.
350
00:11:34,428 --> 00:11:36,127
- Hey, Nick.
- [Nick] Yes, sir.
351
00:11:36,129 --> 00:11:38,029
Dump your pockets out,
let's see the change.
352
00:11:38,031 --> 00:11:39,931
- Seventy cents.
- You got 70 cents?
353
00:11:39,933 --> 00:11:41,766
- Okay-- - Okay,
so you didn't go over
354
00:11:41,768 --> 00:11:43,134
- the 25 bucks, you didn't?
- No.
355
00:11:43,136 --> 00:11:45,303
- There wasn't an extra five in your pockets?
- That's impressive.
356
00:11:45,305 --> 00:11:47,672
No, Guy might have slipped me
a little couple bucks,
357
00:11:47,674 --> 00:11:49,040
you know what I'm saying?
358
00:11:49,042 --> 00:11:51,209
No, he didn't slip me anything.
359
00:11:51,211 --> 00:11:53,878
[Nick] Southwestern
style burger, baby.
360
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:55,413
I got my sliders grilling.
361
00:11:55,415 --> 00:11:56,881
They are looking good.
362
00:11:56,883 --> 00:11:58,883
Oh, man.
So, when everyone comes over
363
00:11:58,885 --> 00:12:00,051
for the game day,
364
00:12:00,053 --> 00:12:02,387
you got to have
a big fat burger, right?
365
00:12:02,389 --> 00:12:04,189
The Bears are on TV.
366
00:12:04,191 --> 00:12:05,724
We're from Chicago.
367
00:12:05,726 --> 00:12:07,025
You gotta have something fat
368
00:12:07,027 --> 00:12:08,359
and flavor put in front of you
369
00:12:08,361 --> 00:12:10,462
when you come over
for the game, right?
370
00:12:10,464 --> 00:12:11,663
I mean, that's just how it works
371
00:12:11,665 --> 00:12:13,164
around this joint, for sure.
372
00:12:15,034 --> 00:12:16,701
[Emerson]
Shrimp ceviche.
373
00:12:16,703 --> 00:12:18,870
Limes are right over here,
tomato,
374
00:12:18,872 --> 00:12:20,171
serrano chili.
375
00:12:20,173 --> 00:12:22,207
I still have
some money left over
376
00:12:22,209 --> 00:12:24,342
and I think,
I have everything I needed.
377
00:12:24,344 --> 00:12:25,577
Let's get this going.
378
00:12:25,644 --> 00:12:28,046
[Emerson] And I do a quick
poach in the boiling water.
379
00:12:28,048 --> 00:12:29,414
Chopping up the shrimp right now
380
00:12:29,416 --> 00:12:31,249
to a little bite size pieces.
381
00:12:31,251 --> 00:12:32,751
Next, I get
my shrimp into a bowl
382
00:12:32,753 --> 00:12:35,019
with diced up cucumber
and tomatoes.
383
00:12:35,021 --> 00:12:36,387
And for some heat, I wanna add
384
00:12:36,389 --> 00:12:38,890
these diced serrano peppers.
385
00:12:38,892 --> 00:12:41,025
The longer this sits,
the better.
386
00:12:41,027 --> 00:12:43,495
All that acid's gonna cook
that shrimp a little bit more.
387
00:12:43,497 --> 00:12:45,597
[Emerson] I had the chicken
bouillon as a replacement
388
00:12:45,599 --> 00:12:47,766
for the salt to add a
deeper, rich, flavorful.
389
00:12:47,768 --> 00:12:48,900
Old trick I learned
390
00:12:48,902 --> 00:12:50,435
from one of my buddies
growing up.
391
00:12:50,437 --> 00:12:52,704
Baja style shrimp ceviche.
392
00:12:52,706 --> 00:12:54,739
- That's a game day thing?
- Yeah.
393
00:12:54,741 --> 00:12:56,441
Stuff that we serve in parties.
394
00:12:56,443 --> 00:12:58,376
- It is a big hit.
- In San Diego, okay.
395
00:13:00,646 --> 00:13:01,646
This is good.
396
00:13:03,983 --> 00:13:06,684
[Cayla] We're making
a stacked nacho,
397
00:13:06,686 --> 00:13:08,686
with some vegan cheese.
398
00:13:11,490 --> 00:13:13,324
[Cayla] So, right away,
I get my veggies
399
00:13:13,326 --> 00:13:16,294
boiling in water
to start to tenderize them
400
00:13:16,296 --> 00:13:17,629
for my vegan cheese.
401
00:13:19,231 --> 00:13:20,398
Soaking here.
402
00:13:22,268 --> 00:13:25,036
That's gonna soften
the cashews for our sauce.
403
00:13:25,038 --> 00:13:27,472
I promise it's good.
You'll be surprised.
404
00:13:27,474 --> 00:13:29,107
[Cayla] I get my ground beef
and bacon.
405
00:13:29,109 --> 00:13:31,576
The meat is already
flavored so beautifully,
406
00:13:31,578 --> 00:13:33,077
with the bacon integrated.
407
00:13:33,079 --> 00:13:34,679
- Why are we going vegan cheese?
- Love it.
408
00:13:34,681 --> 00:13:36,147
You know,
keeping it a little savvy.
409
00:13:36,149 --> 00:13:38,249
- You know, you gotta just lighten it up.
- Okay, so you have
410
00:13:38,251 --> 00:13:39,484
- nutritional yeast...
- Yeah.
411
00:13:39,486 --> 00:13:41,519
- which is one of my favorite things ever.
- Oh.
412
00:13:41,521 --> 00:13:42,654
- Cashews.
- Cashews, yes.
413
00:13:42,656 --> 00:13:44,322
- Okay.
- And then I'm gonna blend it all up.
414
00:13:44,324 --> 00:13:45,790
- Great. Great.
- Make that smooth sauce.
415
00:13:45,792 --> 00:13:48,159
Cheese is
the most important ingredient
416
00:13:48,161 --> 00:13:49,260
to a good nacho.
417
00:13:49,262 --> 00:13:50,662
So, I'm hoping it pays off.
418
00:13:50,664 --> 00:13:52,096
We start
with the nutritional yeast
419
00:13:52,098 --> 00:13:54,465
that really
adds that cheesy flavor
420
00:13:54,467 --> 00:13:56,634
and then,
I'm boiling some vegetables
421
00:13:56,636 --> 00:13:59,003
to add the color
and then we'll season it.
422
00:13:59,005 --> 00:14:00,538
[Aarti] This is the hard thing.
423
00:14:00,540 --> 00:14:03,675
You absolutely should be
making what you know.
424
00:14:03,677 --> 00:14:05,143
I am concerned though,
425
00:14:05,145 --> 00:14:07,212
that Cayla's vegan cheese
426
00:14:07,214 --> 00:14:09,480
is going up against real cheese
427
00:14:09,482 --> 00:14:10,748
here in Nick's station,
428
00:14:10,750 --> 00:14:12,684
I don't think
it's gonna stand a chance.
429
00:14:12,686 --> 00:14:15,153
[Chris] I'm really concerned
that the nutritional yeast flakes
430
00:14:15,155 --> 00:14:17,722
are not going to give
it that... that mouthfeel.
431
00:14:17,724 --> 00:14:20,592
[Cayla] I overhear the judges
having doubts about it,
432
00:14:20,594 --> 00:14:22,493
which is fair
if you've never tried it.
433
00:14:22,495 --> 00:14:23,895
But I promise,
434
00:14:23,897 --> 00:14:25,597
this packs some flavor.
435
00:14:25,599 --> 00:14:27,232
I think it's great.
436
00:14:27,234 --> 00:14:28,499
Hopefully they love it.
437
00:14:29,902 --> 00:14:32,036
[Guy] Fifteen minutes, we're
at the halfway point, guys.
438
00:14:36,008 --> 00:14:37,342
I mean, I think
I did that pretty good
439
00:14:37,344 --> 00:14:38,710
'cause I was really anticipating
440
00:14:38,712 --> 00:14:39,978
cutting myself with that.
441
00:14:39,980 --> 00:14:41,312
[Nick] So, for my
pico de avocado,
442
00:14:41,314 --> 00:14:43,548
I got avocado, I got onion,
443
00:14:43,550 --> 00:14:45,917
I got cilantro, I got tomato,
444
00:14:45,919 --> 00:14:47,252
I got lime juice.
445
00:14:47,254 --> 00:14:48,686
Gotta give this acid.
446
00:14:48,688 --> 00:14:50,655
One of my best friends
in the world,
447
00:14:50,657 --> 00:14:52,090
at his Mexican restaurant,
448
00:14:52,092 --> 00:14:53,992
serves pico de avocado.
449
00:14:53,994 --> 00:14:55,126
[Nick] A little more
450
00:14:55,128 --> 00:14:56,327
avocado in there.
451
00:14:56,329 --> 00:14:58,930
[Nick] I'm paying homage
to my good buddy, Tim.
452
00:14:58,932 --> 00:15:00,932
I made pico de avocado, buddy.
453
00:15:05,170 --> 00:15:06,771
Mmm, I wanna eat it.
454
00:15:06,773 --> 00:15:08,439
I have $8 left.
455
00:15:08,441 --> 00:15:09,574
And I'm gonna use the rest
456
00:15:09,576 --> 00:15:10,808
to make a chipotle crema sauce.
457
00:15:10,810 --> 00:15:12,277
[Emerson] I'm gonna go
back in the store
458
00:15:12,279 --> 00:15:14,579
and get the ingredients
for my crema sauce.
459
00:15:14,581 --> 00:15:16,714
I grab the sour cream
and the smoked paprika,
460
00:15:16,716 --> 00:15:17,782
and I'm gonna go check out.
461
00:15:17,784 --> 00:15:19,284
[Emerson]
I'll just go and try this.
462
00:15:19,286 --> 00:15:21,953
And that's $7.47.
463
00:15:21,955 --> 00:15:23,621
- [Emerson] Here you go.
- Eight dollars, you know,
464
00:15:23,623 --> 00:15:24,923
you need a lemon or something.
465
00:15:24,925 --> 00:15:26,257
Just in case.
466
00:15:26,259 --> 00:15:28,192
[Emerson] Baja shrimp ceviche
is not traditionally served,
467
00:15:28,194 --> 00:15:30,561
with a crema sauce,
but it's something that I like
468
00:15:30,563 --> 00:15:32,463
that adds a bit of creaminess
469
00:15:32,465 --> 00:15:34,265
and it tones down the sourness
470
00:15:34,267 --> 00:15:36,634
from the lime juice in ceviche.
471
00:15:36,636 --> 00:15:38,770
A little more smokiness to this.
472
00:15:38,772 --> 00:15:41,039
- How we looking, chef?
- We're looking good.
473
00:15:41,041 --> 00:15:42,707
- What is the pink?
- [Emerson] Due to the budget,
474
00:15:42,709 --> 00:15:44,442
I couldn't get the smoked,
475
00:15:44,444 --> 00:15:47,278
uh, chipotle,
so I did this smoked paprika.
476
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:48,646
Got it, got it.
Got it, got it.
477
00:15:48,648 --> 00:15:49,814
[Guy] Ten minute, chefs.
478
00:15:49,816 --> 00:15:51,449
[Emerson] I'm not concerned
about the clock,
479
00:15:51,451 --> 00:15:52,784
I'm more concerned of the flavor
480
00:15:52,786 --> 00:15:54,452
that I have within my dish.
481
00:15:54,454 --> 00:15:56,054
Because I need to
make this perfect.
482
00:15:56,056 --> 00:15:57,388
Everything is on the line here.
483
00:15:57,390 --> 00:15:59,857
It's either go home or win big.
484
00:15:59,859 --> 00:16:01,459
I have two little girls.
485
00:16:01,461 --> 00:16:03,795
They are my inspiration
for cooking.
486
00:16:03,797 --> 00:16:05,463
I already won $10,000
487
00:16:05,465 --> 00:16:06,631
to put towards their education
488
00:16:06,633 --> 00:16:08,633
and I hope to win 20,000 more.
489
00:16:11,303 --> 00:16:12,436
Perfect.
490
00:16:12,438 --> 00:16:14,772
Loaded nachos, I know
a couple of things about that.
491
00:16:14,774 --> 00:16:17,842
In Texas, we love getting
together over football,
492
00:16:17,844 --> 00:16:21,312
and nachos are just
quintessential Tex-Mex.
493
00:16:21,314 --> 00:16:22,480
She got the right tortillas.
494
00:16:22,482 --> 00:16:23,681
The ones that are super fresh
495
00:16:23,683 --> 00:16:26,184
are really hard to make
crunchy tortilla chips out of.
496
00:16:26,186 --> 00:16:27,852
[Cayla] It's a little
intimidating making
497
00:16:27,854 --> 00:16:31,122
my version of nachos
next to Guy.
498
00:16:31,124 --> 00:16:32,890
-Okay. Yeah, really watch your chips.
-Okay.
499
00:16:32,892 --> 00:16:34,559
[Cayla]
The chips have to be crispy,
500
00:16:34,561 --> 00:16:35,860
crunchy and sturdy
501
00:16:35,862 --> 00:16:37,695
to withhold all of the toppings.
502
00:16:37,697 --> 00:16:38,896
We're good.
503
00:16:38,898 --> 00:16:40,531
[Guy] Five minutes,
five minutes to go.
504
00:16:40,533 --> 00:16:41,899
No.
505
00:16:41,901 --> 00:16:44,535
[Cayla] The last thing I need
to work on is my avocado mash.
506
00:16:44,537 --> 00:16:46,938
Let's spice it up.
507
00:16:46,940 --> 00:16:48,673
It's just gonna be
a little mash for that
508
00:16:48,675 --> 00:16:49,807
freshness on top.
509
00:16:49,809 --> 00:16:52,377
[Cayla] This is the final
food fanatic competition.
510
00:16:52,379 --> 00:16:55,279
And today, I'm playing
for the North Texas Food Bank,
511
00:16:55,281 --> 00:16:57,181
which is a part
of No Kid Hungry.
512
00:16:57,183 --> 00:16:59,017
A huge initiative to help
513
00:16:59,019 --> 00:17:01,019
bridge the gap of food
insecurity
514
00:17:01,021 --> 00:17:02,453
with children in America.
515
00:17:02,455 --> 00:17:03,588
Okay.
516
00:17:03,590 --> 00:17:06,024
Because nothing makes me happier
517
00:17:06,026 --> 00:17:08,359
than feeling like I'm giving
myself to others.
518
00:17:08,361 --> 00:17:10,695
[Cayla]
I've got my chips here.
519
00:17:10,697 --> 00:17:12,964
Ooh, they're looking good.
520
00:17:12,966 --> 00:17:15,400
[Guy] Two minutes, come on,
two minutes to plate.
521
00:17:15,402 --> 00:17:17,702
[Nick] I have to start
assembling my Game Day Bite.
522
00:17:17,704 --> 00:17:21,372
First, I'm giving a nice slather
of my sauce on the top bun.
523
00:17:21,374 --> 00:17:24,175
Now, I've got some diced
poblano pepper pieces.
524
00:17:24,177 --> 00:17:27,211
Some of my classic southwest
pico de avocado.
525
00:17:27,213 --> 00:17:29,881
I'm very worried about
the burger to bun ratio,
526
00:17:29,883 --> 00:17:31,949
but I'm really excited
as I'm plating
527
00:17:31,951 --> 00:17:34,018
because my mouth is watering.
528
00:17:34,020 --> 00:17:35,753
I wanna eat this.
I should have made more of it.
529
00:17:38,290 --> 00:17:40,458
[Emerson] So, I scoop
my ceviche into the bowl
530
00:17:40,460 --> 00:17:42,927
and I get a dollop of my
smoked paprika next to it.
531
00:17:42,929 --> 00:17:44,729
You can't forget
the tortilla chips.
532
00:17:46,799 --> 00:17:48,599
[Guy] Twenty seconds.
533
00:17:48,601 --> 00:17:51,936
[Cayla] Once the chips are
fried, I start with my chips.
534
00:17:51,938 --> 00:17:53,404
Then over top of my chips
535
00:17:53,406 --> 00:17:55,440
goes by ground beef and bacon.
536
00:17:55,442 --> 00:17:57,508
I make sure that
my vegan cheese sauce
537
00:17:57,510 --> 00:17:59,077
is as good as it can be.
538
00:17:59,079 --> 00:18:00,244
Good.
539
00:18:00,246 --> 00:18:02,447
Then onto the beef
and bacon it goes.
540
00:18:02,449 --> 00:18:05,416
Last but not least,
bit of my avocado mash.
541
00:18:05,418 --> 00:18:07,418
Five, four,
542
00:18:07,420 --> 00:18:09,153
three, two,
543
00:18:09,155 --> 00:18:10,688
one.
544
00:18:10,690 --> 00:18:12,623
Chefs, that's it.
Stop working.
545
00:18:12,625 --> 00:18:14,959
- Whoo!
- What a round.
546
00:18:14,961 --> 00:18:16,094
What a round.
547
00:18:16,096 --> 00:18:17,595
They look good.
I would eat it.
548
00:18:17,597 --> 00:18:19,097
Chefs, I gotta tell you,
549
00:18:19,099 --> 00:18:20,231
these Game Day Bites,
550
00:18:20,233 --> 00:18:21,833
they deserve an end zone dance.
551
00:18:21,835 --> 00:18:23,768
Let's take it to the judges,
right this way.
552
00:18:30,275 --> 00:18:31,642
All right, judges, here we are.
553
00:18:31,644 --> 00:18:33,044
This is Host with Most
554
00:18:33,046 --> 00:18:35,980
game one, asked
our food fanatics to create
555
00:18:35,982 --> 00:18:38,382
a perfect Game Day Bite using
556
00:18:38,384 --> 00:18:40,885
a whopping $25 each.
557
00:18:40,887 --> 00:18:43,020
Up first, Chef Nick,
what'd you make us?
558
00:18:43,022 --> 00:18:45,523
So, judges, what you have
in front of you
559
00:18:45,525 --> 00:18:48,059
is a chipotle cheeseburger
560
00:18:48,061 --> 00:18:50,561
with the little pico de avocado,
561
00:18:50,563 --> 00:18:52,463
roasted poblanos
562
00:18:52,465 --> 00:18:55,199
and a crema Mexicana
chipotle dressing.
563
00:18:55,201 --> 00:18:56,300
Enjoy.
564
00:18:58,737 --> 00:19:00,004
Nick.
565
00:19:00,006 --> 00:19:01,639
I still need to see the receipt
566
00:19:01,641 --> 00:19:05,243
'cause this is like, to me,
a $50 slider.
567
00:19:05,245 --> 00:19:07,044
- Thank you. Thank you.
- I don't know how you did it.
568
00:19:07,046 --> 00:19:09,213
One of the smartest things
you did was that
569
00:19:09,215 --> 00:19:10,581
you've got these raw ingredients
570
00:19:10,583 --> 00:19:12,250
and you made condiments
571
00:19:12,252 --> 00:19:13,918
to go on this burger.
572
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,420
- That's why it's so exciting.
- Thank you. Thank you.
573
00:19:16,422 --> 00:19:18,489
Flavor from the southwest,
Mexico,
574
00:19:18,491 --> 00:19:19,957
southern California,
575
00:19:19,959 --> 00:19:21,492
all that stuff
really works well for me.
576
00:19:21,494 --> 00:19:24,128
Layering of the different
flavor of chilies
577
00:19:24,130 --> 00:19:27,064
is exactly that bite that I
want, that explosion of flavor.
578
00:19:27,066 --> 00:19:28,633
You have nice acid,
579
00:19:28,635 --> 00:19:30,768
in your avocado de gallo?
580
00:19:30,770 --> 00:19:32,737
- Pico de avocado.
- Pico de avocado.
581
00:19:32,739 --> 00:19:34,405
Excuse me, it's a new term.
582
00:19:34,407 --> 00:19:35,873
I'm not quite used to it yet.
583
00:19:35,875 --> 00:19:37,808
Um, I have to say that
584
00:19:37,810 --> 00:19:41,245
the bun to burger ratio is off.
585
00:19:41,247 --> 00:19:43,314
Uh, I would have
cut the bun down.
586
00:19:43,316 --> 00:19:46,551
- Yeah.
- To keep the actual burger size small.
587
00:19:46,553 --> 00:19:48,286
Got it. Got it.
588
00:19:48,288 --> 00:19:49,787
All right, up next,
Chef Emerson,
589
00:19:49,789 --> 00:19:50,922
what do you have for us?
590
00:19:50,924 --> 00:19:52,857
For today's Game Day Bite,
I cooked up
591
00:19:52,859 --> 00:19:55,092
a Baja style shrimp ceviche.
592
00:19:55,094 --> 00:19:56,594
What you're having there
is shrimp
593
00:19:56,596 --> 00:19:57,962
that I poached just to cook it
594
00:19:57,964 --> 00:19:59,096
just a little bit for you guys.
595
00:19:59,098 --> 00:20:00,398
A little secret in there.
596
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:01,933
I put a piece
of bouillon in there
597
00:20:01,935 --> 00:20:03,434
to give it some of the saltiness
598
00:20:03,436 --> 00:20:05,536
and some flavor to the ceviche.
599
00:20:05,538 --> 00:20:07,305
- Oh.
- There is also
600
00:20:07,307 --> 00:20:08,940
a sliced up serrano chili
601
00:20:08,942 --> 00:20:10,374
to give it
a little bit of a kick,
602
00:20:10,376 --> 00:20:14,111
also with a side
of smoked paprika crema sauce.
603
00:20:15,747 --> 00:20:18,583
You made my favorite dish
ceviche, raw fish I... I
604
00:20:18,585 --> 00:20:19,917
I love it, I eat it all the time
605
00:20:19,919 --> 00:20:21,319
and always struggle
606
00:20:21,321 --> 00:20:23,221
to serve it at parties.
You've made it work well.
607
00:20:23,223 --> 00:20:25,423
I like that you added
this mayo crema,
608
00:20:25,425 --> 00:20:27,225
I've never seen it before,
but I like it a lot.
609
00:20:27,227 --> 00:20:29,727
- I think it's very inventive, very creative.
- Thank you.
610
00:20:29,729 --> 00:20:32,563
I think it was risky to spend
that much money on shrimp,
611
00:20:32,565 --> 00:20:34,365
but you treated it really well.
612
00:20:34,367 --> 00:20:36,467
I loved the poach
that you got on it.
613
00:20:36,469 --> 00:20:38,269
I think
it's very pretty plating,
614
00:20:38,271 --> 00:20:41,205
but the tortilla chips
themselves are still really dry.
615
00:20:41,207 --> 00:20:43,374
I wish you'd refried
those chips.
616
00:20:43,376 --> 00:20:45,610
I think, your bite
needs more bite.
617
00:20:45,612 --> 00:20:47,612
Just needs to be a bigger
618
00:20:47,614 --> 00:20:48,779
flavor,
619
00:20:48,781 --> 00:20:50,948
kind of ka-pow in your mouth.
620
00:20:50,950 --> 00:20:52,116
- And then I think--
- How is that?
621
00:20:52,118 --> 00:20:53,384
A ka-pow in your mouth.
622
00:20:53,386 --> 00:20:55,886
- How is it, Hunter, how'd he do it?
- Pah!
623
00:20:55,888 --> 00:20:57,989
- Pow!
- Pow, pow!
624
00:20:57,991 --> 00:20:59,890
- You say pow?
- Ka-pow!
625
00:20:59,892 --> 00:21:01,659
Ka-pow.
626
00:21:01,661 --> 00:21:03,060
She's an old Batman fan.
627
00:21:03,062 --> 00:21:05,463
- It's, you know...
- I get that.
628
00:21:05,465 --> 00:21:06,530
It's very good.
It just needs
629
00:21:06,532 --> 00:21:08,866
- more lime and more salt.
- Thank you.
630
00:21:08,868 --> 00:21:10,468
[Guy] Not to be outdone, though,
631
00:21:10,470 --> 00:21:11,836
Chef Cayla, what'd you make us?
632
00:21:11,838 --> 00:21:13,971
Hi, chefs.
For my Game Day Bite,
633
00:21:13,973 --> 00:21:15,206
I prepared for you
634
00:21:15,208 --> 00:21:17,775
loaded beef and bacon nachos,
635
00:21:17,777 --> 00:21:19,377
topped with a vegan cheese
636
00:21:19,379 --> 00:21:21,279
and an avocado mash.
637
00:21:21,281 --> 00:21:23,681
I had $25 to spend, so
638
00:21:23,683 --> 00:21:25,549
I put everything
I could into this dish.
639
00:21:28,153 --> 00:21:30,187
[Chris] I'm actually gonna
have to eat my words
640
00:21:30,189 --> 00:21:31,555
from a few moments ago.
641
00:21:31,557 --> 00:21:32,790
- Um...
- [Guy laughs]
642
00:21:32,792 --> 00:21:33,824
Hang on. Can I?
643
00:21:36,328 --> 00:21:38,329
Go right ahead, chef.
I'm not recording this.
644
00:21:38,331 --> 00:21:41,132
So, Cayla, I'm gonna
have to eat my words on this.
645
00:21:41,134 --> 00:21:44,635
Um, I am a staunch believer
in the old-school way
646
00:21:44,637 --> 00:21:46,771
of cheese is cheese,
647
00:21:46,773 --> 00:21:48,339
meat is meat.
648
00:21:48,341 --> 00:21:51,108
But I'm extremely impressed
649
00:21:51,110 --> 00:21:54,011
with the mouthfeel
and the texture
650
00:21:54,013 --> 00:21:55,880
- of your vegan cheese.
- Awesome.
651
00:21:55,882 --> 00:21:57,782
[Chris] It really
just caught me off guard.
652
00:21:57,784 --> 00:22:00,551
- Really, really impressed.
- Thank you so much.
653
00:22:00,553 --> 00:22:01,686
[Aarti] Your meat
654
00:22:01,688 --> 00:22:04,689
component of your nachos
are seasoned gorgeously,
655
00:22:04,691 --> 00:22:05,790
cooked beautifully
656
00:22:05,792 --> 00:22:07,258
They're still sort of tender.
657
00:22:07,260 --> 00:22:08,626
Did a great job there.
658
00:22:08,628 --> 00:22:10,428
[Chris] I would have loved to
have it
659
00:22:10,430 --> 00:22:12,330
all tossed together in a bowl,
660
00:22:12,332 --> 00:22:14,532
little more incorporated
like the totopos,
661
00:22:14,534 --> 00:22:16,100
where the cheese and the meat
662
00:22:16,102 --> 00:22:17,668
are all adhered to them,
663
00:22:17,670 --> 00:22:19,837
instead of being
separate components
664
00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:21,939
that you had to then find
to get on that bite.
665
00:22:21,941 --> 00:22:23,040
Okay.
666
00:22:23,042 --> 00:22:25,042
Now, as the guy
who's been advocating
667
00:22:25,044 --> 00:22:28,212
for healthy food
and in competition on TV
668
00:22:28,214 --> 00:22:29,914
for almost ten years now,
669
00:22:29,916 --> 00:22:31,515
I understand your dilemma.
670
00:22:31,517 --> 00:22:33,918
You're struggling with
being true to yourself,
671
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:35,286
but still trying to
win this game.
672
00:22:35,288 --> 00:22:37,555
You split the difference.
You gave me real beef,
673
00:22:37,557 --> 00:22:39,457
real corn chips, real tortillas
674
00:22:39,459 --> 00:22:42,126
and then you made the most
delicious vegan cheese I've ever tried.
675
00:22:42,128 --> 00:22:44,195
I'm gonna need
the recipe immediately.
676
00:22:44,197 --> 00:22:45,930
- And good job.
- Wow. Thank you. Thank you.
677
00:22:45,932 --> 00:22:47,164
Wow.
678
00:22:47,166 --> 00:22:49,266
[Hunter] All right. Thank
you, judges. Thank you, chefs.
679
00:22:49,268 --> 00:22:51,502
I'm gonna ask you all to leave
now and go back to the kitchen
680
00:22:51,504 --> 00:22:52,770
so that judges can deliberate
681
00:22:52,772 --> 00:22:54,572
and will score up your dishes.
682
00:22:54,574 --> 00:22:56,173
[Guy] Thank you very much.
Good job.
683
00:22:56,175 --> 00:22:57,675
- [Hunter] Awesome.
- [Guy] All right.
684
00:22:57,677 --> 00:22:59,643
Judges, I'll tell you what.
685
00:22:59,645 --> 00:23:01,645
And you got to be honest
with me.
686
00:23:01,647 --> 00:23:04,849
How do you think they did,
they're home cooks?
687
00:23:04,851 --> 00:23:06,250
I couldn't tell the difference.
688
00:23:06,252 --> 00:23:07,651
- Honestly, they seem like...
- Right?
689
00:23:07,653 --> 00:23:09,653
- trained professionals.
- [Aarti] Yeah.
690
00:23:09,655 --> 00:23:11,489
They weren't fazed
by your budget.
691
00:23:11,491 --> 00:23:13,124
They weren't fazed by you guys.
692
00:23:13,126 --> 00:23:14,825
Like, it's a lot
to come in here on the set
693
00:23:14,827 --> 00:23:15,926
with all the cameras and stuff,
694
00:23:15,928 --> 00:23:18,462
but also to have you guys
in their kitchen,
695
00:23:18,464 --> 00:23:19,930
it's a real psychological
number,
696
00:23:19,932 --> 00:23:22,299
- and they've done it so well.
- I agree.
697
00:23:22,301 --> 00:23:24,001
All right, let's score 'em up.
698
00:23:24,003 --> 00:23:25,903
Twenty points
of game play available,
699
00:23:25,905 --> 00:23:27,405
20 points of taste available,
700
00:23:27,407 --> 00:23:28,672
ten points of plating available.
701
00:23:35,714 --> 00:23:37,014
Well, chefs,
702
00:23:37,016 --> 00:23:38,182
it has been a pleasure.
703
00:23:38,184 --> 00:23:39,917
We're scoring you like pros.
704
00:23:39,919 --> 00:23:42,686
I think, everybody made
a winnable dish,
705
00:23:42,688 --> 00:23:45,623
but just like in
any major sporting event,
706
00:23:45,625 --> 00:23:47,458
not everybody's a winner.
707
00:23:47,460 --> 00:23:48,826
Let's take a look at the scores.
708
00:23:48,828 --> 00:23:53,197
Nick, game play, 16 out of 20,
709
00:23:53,199 --> 00:23:55,332
17 out of 20 in taste,
710
00:23:55,334 --> 00:23:58,569
eight out of ten in plating
for a total of 41.
711
00:23:58,571 --> 00:23:59,603
Nicely done.
712
00:24:01,006 --> 00:24:02,840
Emerson,
713
00:24:02,842 --> 00:24:04,909
16 in game play,
714
00:24:04,911 --> 00:24:07,311
15 in taste,
715
00:24:07,313 --> 00:24:09,880
seven in plating, total of 38.
716
00:24:12,317 --> 00:24:14,151
All right, Cayla,
you got to beat a 38
717
00:24:14,153 --> 00:24:16,420
or you're the one taking off.
718
00:24:16,422 --> 00:24:18,522
Eighteen in game play,
719
00:24:18,524 --> 00:24:20,491
17 in taste
720
00:24:20,493 --> 00:24:23,127
and seven in plating
for a score of 42.
721
00:24:23,129 --> 00:24:25,229
- [Guy] Congratulations.
- Good job.
722
00:24:25,231 --> 00:24:26,797
Good job, guys.
723
00:24:26,799 --> 00:24:29,300
Emerson, my brother, my surfer.
724
00:24:29,302 --> 00:24:30,768
I'll tell you something,
did it your way.
725
00:24:30,770 --> 00:24:33,270
I think, your bouillon cube
move was genius.
726
00:24:33,272 --> 00:24:34,905
I doubt this is the last time
we'll see you,
727
00:24:34,907 --> 00:24:36,240
but it was great
having you, Emerson.
728
00:24:36,242 --> 00:24:38,008
-Thank you.
-[Emerson] Thank you so much. Thank you.
729
00:24:38,010 --> 00:24:39,443
[Nick] Great job.
Good luck.
730
00:24:39,445 --> 00:24:41,779
I'm still in awe and speechless
that I was able to cook in Flavortown.
731
00:24:41,781 --> 00:24:43,848
I'm just a regular guy
from San Diego,
732
00:24:43,850 --> 00:24:46,183
so I hope others get inspired
to cook
733
00:24:46,185 --> 00:24:48,519
and share the love and passion
that they have with their food
734
00:24:48,521 --> 00:24:49,553
just as I do.
735
00:24:53,391 --> 00:24:54,859
Well, Hunter, you know
what you got here.
736
00:24:54,861 --> 00:24:57,628
The Texas Fitness Foodie versus
737
00:24:57,630 --> 00:24:59,430
the Baller Arizona Ballplayer.
738
00:24:59,432 --> 00:25:01,465
That is right, and
this round's gonna determine
739
00:25:01,467 --> 00:25:02,733
who's gonna shop Flavortown
740
00:25:02,735 --> 00:25:05,970
for up to another $20,000.
741
00:25:05,972 --> 00:25:07,204
[Hunter] That's epic.
742
00:25:07,206 --> 00:25:10,341
[Guy] Cayla,
you're in the lead, 42 points.
743
00:25:10,343 --> 00:25:14,144
Nick, trailing behind by
a whopping one point.
744
00:25:14,146 --> 00:25:16,413
No more bites or finger food.
745
00:25:16,415 --> 00:25:18,516
I want you to make the judges,
746
00:25:18,518 --> 00:25:20,184
an off the chart,
747
00:25:20,186 --> 00:25:22,586
lights out delicious...
748
00:25:26,892 --> 00:25:28,726
- party plate.
- [Hunter] Party plate.
749
00:25:28,728 --> 00:25:32,062
Okay, we're talking
cohesive plate of food
750
00:25:32,064 --> 00:25:34,632
custom-made
for that big occasion.
751
00:25:34,634 --> 00:25:37,301
- Yes, sir.
- That sounds bomb, actually.
752
00:25:37,303 --> 00:25:39,169
- I want some.
- All right, what else is new?
753
00:25:39,171 --> 00:25:41,739
The question is, what big
event are you gonna cook for?
754
00:25:41,741 --> 00:25:43,741
We're going to play
a brand new game called
755
00:25:43,743 --> 00:25:46,243
Triple G Invitation.
756
00:25:46,245 --> 00:25:48,379
Hunter has some invitations
to a big party
757
00:25:48,381 --> 00:25:50,247
- that he'd like to present to you, Hunter.
- I do, yes.
758
00:25:50,249 --> 00:25:53,117
- I got three parties that we can actually go to.
- Okay.
759
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,952
So, we have the choices of
760
00:25:54,954 --> 00:25:57,388
Fourth of July event
family reunion,
761
00:25:57,390 --> 00:25:59,790
and an anniversary.
762
00:25:59,792 --> 00:26:01,759
Cayla, 'cause
you are in the lead,
763
00:26:01,761 --> 00:26:04,061
- you get to pick one of the three.
- [Cayla] Got it.
764
00:26:04,063 --> 00:26:06,163
- [Hunter] There's three here.
- [Guy] There you go.
765
00:26:06,165 --> 00:26:07,631
Question is,
766
00:26:07,633 --> 00:26:08,666
what do you think you got?
767
00:26:10,068 --> 00:26:12,036
[Cayla] I am invited to
768
00:26:12,038 --> 00:26:13,637
a dinner party
769
00:26:13,639 --> 00:26:15,272
for Fourth of July.
770
00:26:15,274 --> 00:26:17,107
- [Guy] Fourth of July dinner party.
- Love it.
771
00:26:17,109 --> 00:26:19,209
Now, the great news is,
772
00:26:19,211 --> 00:26:21,111
both of you are gonna be
cooking for this party.
773
00:26:21,113 --> 00:26:22,546
- Cool.
- [Guy] Okay.
774
00:26:22,548 --> 00:26:24,782
-I love it. My birthday is in July.
-Fourth of July is your game?
775
00:26:24,784 --> 00:26:26,417
- So, feels right.
- [Guy] Texas, it must be big?
776
00:26:26,419 --> 00:26:27,551
- Yeah, we love it.
- [Guy] Okay.
777
00:26:27,553 --> 00:26:30,154
Thirty minutes to make
a Party Plate
778
00:26:30,156 --> 00:26:31,956
for this Fourth of July party.
779
00:26:31,958 --> 00:26:33,457
And one of the things
what I think,
780
00:26:33,459 --> 00:26:35,459
I'm a huge patriot so is Hunter,
781
00:26:35,461 --> 00:26:38,262
so red, white and blue is
a big part of our family.
782
00:26:38,264 --> 00:26:39,463
I just want to remind you,
783
00:26:39,465 --> 00:26:41,565
when you go shopping
for your ingredients,
784
00:26:41,567 --> 00:26:42,633
for your party platter,
785
00:26:42,635 --> 00:26:45,069
you just remember
you have to get something red,
786
00:26:45,071 --> 00:26:46,337
something white
787
00:26:46,339 --> 00:26:47,471
and something blue
788
00:26:47,473 --> 00:26:50,274
and they must be incorporated
into your dish.
789
00:26:50,276 --> 00:26:51,675
Those three things
790
00:26:51,677 --> 00:26:53,277
have to be in there.
791
00:26:53,279 --> 00:26:54,511
Okay? The two of you,
792
00:26:54,513 --> 00:26:56,680
you go and you get
one of those things missing...
793
00:26:58,249 --> 00:27:00,050
I had to be nice for
the last one.
794
00:27:00,052 --> 00:27:02,152
- Come on.
- What is something blue?
795
00:27:02,154 --> 00:27:04,054
Blue.
796
00:27:04,056 --> 00:27:07,191
All right.
So, red, white and blue.
797
00:27:07,193 --> 00:27:10,227
We got a Triple G invitation
to the Fourth of July.
798
00:27:10,229 --> 00:27:11,562
Where's a good bun at?
799
00:27:11,564 --> 00:27:13,397
And I am pumped.
800
00:27:13,399 --> 00:27:15,466
I need a good bun.
There we go.
801
00:27:15,468 --> 00:27:18,302
Fourth of July party at
the farm family fun house is
802
00:27:18,304 --> 00:27:20,471
burgers, it's broths,
it's sausage,
803
00:27:20,473 --> 00:27:22,039
putting something on the grill,
804
00:27:22,041 --> 00:27:23,607
[Nick] He's letting me
take whatever I want.
805
00:27:23,609 --> 00:27:24,842
So, I know I want to do
806
00:27:24,844 --> 00:27:26,710
a grilled Italian sausage
sandwich.
807
00:27:26,712 --> 00:27:28,646
What is something blue?
808
00:27:28,648 --> 00:27:31,281
[Nick] But I have to
incorporate something red,
809
00:27:31,283 --> 00:27:33,550
something white
and something blue.
810
00:27:33,552 --> 00:27:35,853
I have no idea
what something blue is.
811
00:27:35,855 --> 00:27:37,021
What is blue?
812
00:27:38,390 --> 00:27:39,490
I'm grabbing blue cheese
813
00:27:39,492 --> 00:27:41,792
because I don't know
if anything else
814
00:27:41,794 --> 00:27:43,293
that has something blue in it.
815
00:27:43,295 --> 00:27:44,662
I see that it has some blue
816
00:27:44,664 --> 00:27:46,363
and that's what I'm going with.
817
00:27:46,365 --> 00:27:48,232
Red, white and blue.
818
00:27:48,234 --> 00:27:49,400
And I see this corn.
819
00:27:49,402 --> 00:27:50,734
Fresh corn.
820
00:27:50,736 --> 00:27:52,069
And I'm thinking of myself,
821
00:27:52,071 --> 00:27:55,005
"Dude, make some
grilled corn elote."
822
00:27:55,007 --> 00:27:56,740
I grew up on it.
I love it.
823
00:27:56,742 --> 00:27:57,875
Is it white?
824
00:27:57,877 --> 00:27:59,677
For my white,
I got a white onion,
825
00:27:59,679 --> 00:28:02,546
and for my red,
I got a red bell pepper.
826
00:28:02,548 --> 00:28:04,515
A grilled sausage sandwich
827
00:28:04,517 --> 00:28:05,849
with peppers and onions,
828
00:28:05,851 --> 00:28:07,251
the perfect combination.
829
00:28:07,253 --> 00:28:08,419
Here we go.
I want this.
830
00:28:08,421 --> 00:28:09,853
Nothing is better
831
00:28:09,855 --> 00:28:11,789
than having a nice pasta salad
832
00:28:11,791 --> 00:28:13,724
with a hearty sausage.
833
00:28:13,726 --> 00:28:14,925
Okay.
834
00:28:14,927 --> 00:28:16,960
So, going into round two,
I feel pretty good.
835
00:28:16,962 --> 00:28:19,430
I don't like that point
that I'm behind with Cayla,
836
00:28:19,432 --> 00:28:21,098
but I'm pretty confident.
837
00:28:21,100 --> 00:28:23,100
I don't know
what they'll use for blue.
838
00:28:23,102 --> 00:28:24,802
- I mean--
- Pasta, mac and cheese.
839
00:28:25,904 --> 00:28:26,970
- For blue?
- Yeah.
840
00:28:26,972 --> 00:28:29,106
Oh, yes, the color of the box,
yeah, I'm just...
841
00:28:29,108 --> 00:28:30,774
- I'm trying to think of like...
- Something blue.
842
00:28:30,776 --> 00:28:32,276
something be on the color
of blue.
843
00:28:32,278 --> 00:28:34,078
Yeah, but I don't know
besides blueberries
844
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:35,713
- and blackberries.
- Yeah, that's all I know.
845
00:28:35,715 --> 00:28:36,747
Okay. Um...
846
00:28:37,882 --> 00:28:38,949
This is the final round
847
00:28:38,951 --> 00:28:40,517
[Cayla] and there's no room
for mistakes,
848
00:28:40,519 --> 00:28:43,153
we've gotta grab something
red, white and blue.
849
00:28:43,155 --> 00:28:44,288
Thanks, Guy.
850
00:28:44,290 --> 00:28:46,090
Okay, okay, okay.
851
00:28:46,092 --> 00:28:47,324
[Cayla] To me, July 4th,
852
00:28:47,326 --> 00:28:49,760
I'm right away
taken to a backyard party.
853
00:28:49,762 --> 00:28:51,195
Now, I'm thinking fried chicken.
854
00:28:52,664 --> 00:28:54,832
But also tons of fresh flavors.
855
00:28:57,001 --> 00:28:58,635
Where are my cherry tomatoes?
856
00:28:58,637 --> 00:29:01,138
So, I'm gonna make
a tomato, strawberry
857
00:29:01,140 --> 00:29:02,272
caprese salad,
858
00:29:02,274 --> 00:29:04,608
and they'll be
my red component as well.
859
00:29:04,610 --> 00:29:07,344
I have fresh mozzarella
in my caprese salad.
860
00:29:07,346 --> 00:29:08,378
That's my something white.
861
00:29:09,881 --> 00:29:10,981
Blue, blue.
862
00:29:10,983 --> 00:29:12,182
I'm not seeing any blue
863
00:29:12,184 --> 00:29:13,751
in Flavortown.
I'm feeling the pressure.
864
00:29:13,753 --> 00:29:15,853
What am I going to do
that's blue?
865
00:29:15,855 --> 00:29:17,621
My dish needs a pasta
866
00:29:17,623 --> 00:29:18,756
and thankfully
867
00:29:18,758 --> 00:29:21,525
the pasta box that I grabbed
was blue.
868
00:29:21,527 --> 00:29:23,327
Guy said I was good to go.
869
00:29:23,329 --> 00:29:25,162
I always think of pasta salads
870
00:29:25,164 --> 00:29:26,764
in relation to grilling.
871
00:29:26,766 --> 00:29:28,999
Remember, this is
my Fourth of July party.
872
00:29:29,001 --> 00:29:30,134
This is legit.
873
00:29:30,136 --> 00:29:31,802
But I hope that the judges
874
00:29:31,804 --> 00:29:34,004
don't taste a side dish
of stress.
875
00:29:34,006 --> 00:29:35,339
[Guy] Twenty-five minutes.
876
00:29:35,341 --> 00:29:37,007
[Aarti] This is a big challenge
877
00:29:37,009 --> 00:29:38,142
for this final round.
878
00:29:38,144 --> 00:29:40,010
- It's got to feel big.
- [Chris] Yes.
879
00:29:40,012 --> 00:29:41,745
You've got to be really smart
with it.
880
00:29:41,747 --> 00:29:43,747
- And--
- There's blue in this cheese.
881
00:29:43,749 --> 00:29:44,982
And just 'cause
the color is there,
882
00:29:44,984 --> 00:29:46,216
doesn't mean
the flavor is there.
883
00:29:52,657 --> 00:29:55,259
[Guy] Twenty-four minutes.
884
00:29:55,261 --> 00:29:56,560
[Aarti] This is the final round
885
00:29:56,562 --> 00:29:57,895
of these food fanatics,
886
00:29:57,897 --> 00:29:59,897
there's $20,000 on the line.
887
00:29:59,899 --> 00:30:01,832
When I think Fourth of July,
I think
888
00:30:01,834 --> 00:30:03,734
food being cooked over fire.
889
00:30:03,736 --> 00:30:06,336
Everybody outside,
everybody around the grill,
890
00:30:06,338 --> 00:30:08,772
- everybody with opinions about the grill.
- Oh.
891
00:30:10,708 --> 00:30:11,842
[Chris] Look, there we go.
892
00:30:11,844 --> 00:30:13,477
Nick has sausage here
right in front of us.
893
00:30:13,479 --> 00:30:15,012
[Nick] Do a spicy,
894
00:30:15,014 --> 00:30:18,682
nice party Chicago style
sausage sandwich.
895
00:30:18,684 --> 00:30:20,250
Do you have a red, white
and blue ingredient?
896
00:30:20,252 --> 00:30:22,586
- Yes, I got blue cheese...
- [Guy] Blue, red, white.
897
00:30:22,588 --> 00:30:25,022
- And I got white a onion.
- There you go.
898
00:30:25,024 --> 00:30:26,123
[Nick] Key to making
899
00:30:26,125 --> 00:30:28,559
a great grilled Italian
sausage sandwich is
900
00:30:28,561 --> 00:30:30,794
gotta have a good sauteed
901
00:30:30,796 --> 00:30:32,362
pepper and onion mixture
902
00:30:32,364 --> 00:30:33,797
that has great seasoning.
903
00:30:33,799 --> 00:30:34,865
[Chris] Sausage and peppers,
904
00:30:34,867 --> 00:30:36,099
that's kind of a win in my mind.
905
00:30:37,268 --> 00:30:39,937
Look at nick with the little
saute-toss over there.
906
00:30:41,873 --> 00:30:43,640
[Nick] While my peppers
and onions are cooking,
907
00:30:43,642 --> 00:30:45,108
I start grilling my sausage.
908
00:30:45,110 --> 00:30:46,276
There we go.
909
00:30:46,278 --> 00:30:48,612
So, I went for
a hot Italian sausage
910
00:30:48,614 --> 00:30:49,913
because I wanted to make sure
911
00:30:49,915 --> 00:30:51,315
that I had just
a little bit of zing
912
00:30:51,317 --> 00:30:53,016
in that sausage for the judges.
913
00:30:53,018 --> 00:30:54,585
I'm gonna put
a little Arizona twist
914
00:30:54,587 --> 00:30:56,320
on it with roasted peppers.
915
00:30:56,322 --> 00:30:58,155
[Rocco] He's back to
the chili again.
916
00:30:58,157 --> 00:31:00,457
It's kind of his,
that's his safe place.
917
00:31:00,459 --> 00:31:02,793
Well, I love me
a sausage sandwich.
918
00:31:02,795 --> 00:31:04,328
[Nick]
So, whenever you're a host
919
00:31:04,330 --> 00:31:05,696
and you're in the backyard,
920
00:31:05,698 --> 00:31:07,798
I gotta get the grill fired up.
921
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:09,233
But usually I'm making
922
00:31:09,235 --> 00:31:11,768
a Fourth of July platter
in ten hours,
923
00:31:11,770 --> 00:31:14,071
hanging out with my friends,
drinking beer.
924
00:31:14,073 --> 00:31:15,639
I've never done this
in 30 minutes.
925
00:31:16,674 --> 00:31:18,642
[Nick]
Get your mind right, son.
926
00:31:18,644 --> 00:31:19,843
I've got lots of red,
927
00:31:19,845 --> 00:31:22,145
and Guy said this was blue,
so I'm going with it.
928
00:31:22,147 --> 00:31:23,814
And white mozzarella.
929
00:31:23,816 --> 00:31:25,983
What is on the menu?
930
00:31:25,985 --> 00:31:28,318
[Cayla] Lightly fried chicken,
avocado,
931
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,954
pistachio pesto, pasta.
932
00:31:30,956 --> 00:31:33,457
-[Guy] Okay.
-[Cayla] And a little strawberry,
933
00:31:33,459 --> 00:31:35,525
tomato caprese salad.
934
00:31:35,527 --> 00:31:37,294
Okey-dokey.
935
00:31:37,296 --> 00:31:39,129
[Cayla] I seasoned
my bone-in chicken thighs
936
00:31:39,131 --> 00:31:40,530
with salt and pepper.
937
00:31:40,532 --> 00:31:42,666
And then I debone
a few of the pieces.
938
00:31:42,668 --> 00:31:43,967
[Guy] That was a smart move
she did
939
00:31:43,969 --> 00:31:45,068
with taking the bone out of 'em.
940
00:31:45,070 --> 00:31:46,203
- I mean--
- Yeah, cook faster.
941
00:31:46,205 --> 00:31:47,337
Yeah.
942
00:31:47,339 --> 00:31:49,539
[Cayla] Into the flour dredge
they go.
943
00:31:49,541 --> 00:31:52,242
Then I dropped the chicken
thighs into the oil
944
00:31:52,244 --> 00:31:53,977
to get them crispy.
945
00:31:53,979 --> 00:31:56,313
This deliciously
rich fried chicken
946
00:31:56,315 --> 00:31:58,215
needs something lighter
to balance.
947
00:31:58,217 --> 00:32:00,117
So, I'm gonna make a strawberry
948
00:32:00,119 --> 00:32:01,885
tomato caprese salad
949
00:32:01,887 --> 00:32:05,055
with tons of vinegar
and fresh flavors.
950
00:32:05,057 --> 00:32:06,490
I'm trying to keep
out of my head
951
00:32:06,492 --> 00:32:07,758
that this is the final round,
952
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,359
and there's no room
for mistakes.
953
00:32:09,361 --> 00:32:10,594
[Cayla] That's right in.
954
00:32:10,596 --> 00:32:12,496
[Cayla] You've gotta do your
very best to stay present
955
00:32:12,498 --> 00:32:14,031
and focus on the game
956
00:32:14,033 --> 00:32:17,034
so that I can help out
the North Texas Food Bank
957
00:32:17,036 --> 00:32:18,201
and No Kid Hungry
958
00:32:18,203 --> 00:32:20,737
because I think they do
an incredible job
959
00:32:20,739 --> 00:32:23,040
trying to close the food
insecurity gap
960
00:32:23,042 --> 00:32:25,642
that is within our
North Texas community.
961
00:32:25,644 --> 00:32:27,010
What's a better win than that?
962
00:32:29,747 --> 00:32:31,882
[Guy] Fifteen minutes, we're
at the halfway point, guys.
963
00:32:31,884 --> 00:32:33,116
Work with purpose.
964
00:32:35,787 --> 00:32:37,888
[Aarti] I do love the way
that Nick is cooking,
965
00:32:37,890 --> 00:32:39,856
'cause this to me
is Fourth of July.
966
00:32:39,858 --> 00:32:41,458
Everything practically
967
00:32:41,460 --> 00:32:42,592
is on that grill.
968
00:32:42,594 --> 00:32:45,295
Sausage, peppers, corn.
969
00:32:45,297 --> 00:32:47,764
[Nick] Oh, yeah,
make some elotes.
970
00:32:47,766 --> 00:32:49,700
So, elote is a grilled corn,
971
00:32:49,702 --> 00:32:51,601
it's rolled in
a very creamy sauce.
972
00:32:52,837 --> 00:32:54,104
I'm gonna mix that crema,
973
00:32:54,106 --> 00:32:55,405
some of that chipotle,
974
00:32:55,407 --> 00:32:56,940
add some chunks
of this blue cheese.
975
00:32:58,476 --> 00:32:59,710
Okay.
976
00:32:59,712 --> 00:33:02,045
So, I know that
I have to coat this corn
977
00:33:02,047 --> 00:33:04,314
really heavy, because
on the Fourth of July,
978
00:33:04,316 --> 00:33:06,616
you gotta be messy.
979
00:33:06,618 --> 00:33:07,884
Let's go here.
980
00:33:07,886 --> 00:33:09,152
The last thing that
I need to make
981
00:33:09,154 --> 00:33:10,454
is my pasta salad.
982
00:33:10,456 --> 00:33:12,789
These poblanos look
absolutely perfect
983
00:33:12,791 --> 00:33:14,558
when I pulled them
off the grill.
984
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:16,293
So, I'm tossing my pasta
985
00:33:16,295 --> 00:33:17,761
with a little bit of olive oil,
986
00:33:17,763 --> 00:33:20,263
I got cilantro
and all my grilled poblano.
987
00:33:21,933 --> 00:33:24,301
The last time I was here, I
was playing for No Kid Hungry.
988
00:33:24,303 --> 00:33:26,536
Today, I wanna do
the same exact thing.
989
00:33:26,538 --> 00:33:28,805
It's just something
that's very endearing to me,
990
00:33:28,807 --> 00:33:30,273
it's very warm to the heart.
991
00:33:30,275 --> 00:33:32,275
And the fact that we have
hungry people
992
00:33:32,277 --> 00:33:33,977
and hungry kids in this country,
993
00:33:33,979 --> 00:33:36,480
it's just flat out unacceptable.
994
00:33:36,482 --> 00:33:38,782
Ten minutes, chefs, ten to go.
995
00:33:40,485 --> 00:33:41,551
[Cayla] How are they looking?
996
00:33:41,553 --> 00:33:43,153
- [Guy] They're looking great.
- [Cayla] Thanks.
997
00:33:43,155 --> 00:33:45,122
[Cayla] The next thing
I've got to start working on
998
00:33:45,124 --> 00:33:46,790
is my pesto pasta.
999
00:33:46,792 --> 00:33:50,027
The pasta is one of our
favorite recipes.
1000
00:33:50,029 --> 00:33:51,661
I love using the avocado.
1001
00:33:51,663 --> 00:33:54,498
One thing that I really love
about the way Cayla is cooking
1002
00:33:54,500 --> 00:33:55,866
is it is so seasonal.
1003
00:33:55,868 --> 00:33:58,001
She's got basil, pistachios
1004
00:33:58,003 --> 00:33:59,669
coming together for a pesto.
1005
00:33:59,671 --> 00:34:01,838
I mean, it is summertime
cooking,
1006
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:02,873
for sure.
1007
00:34:04,742 --> 00:34:06,209
[Cayla] Once my pesto is ready,
1008
00:34:06,211 --> 00:34:08,979
I get it into a bowl
and fold in my pasta.
1009
00:34:08,981 --> 00:34:11,348
I'm topping my pasta with
more parmesan cheese.
1010
00:34:11,350 --> 00:34:12,516
Oh, yes!
1011
00:34:12,518 --> 00:34:14,384
Pesto brightens any dish.
1012
00:34:14,386 --> 00:34:16,620
It's the perfect sauce.
1013
00:34:16,622 --> 00:34:18,055
Oh, yeah, it does look good.
1014
00:34:19,457 --> 00:34:21,324
- [Guy] Wanna see a cool trick on avocados?
- [Cayla] Hmm.
1015
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,428
Like this, as opposed to in it
with the knife.
1016
00:34:27,999 --> 00:34:30,167
TikTok University, baby.
1017
00:34:30,169 --> 00:34:31,301
Three minutes.
1018
00:34:31,303 --> 00:34:33,136
Ready, chef, let's go,
let's get it on the plate.
1019
00:34:33,138 --> 00:34:35,505
[Nick] I'm plating this
Fourth of July party platter
1020
00:34:35,507 --> 00:34:36,873
in a to-go box
1021
00:34:36,875 --> 00:34:39,009
because the story
that I wanna tell is,
1022
00:34:39,011 --> 00:34:40,677
"Let's cook this food at home,
1023
00:34:40,679 --> 00:34:42,612
let's box it up, let's head
to the lake
1024
00:34:42,614 --> 00:34:44,548
and spend the day
for Fourth of July."
1025
00:34:44,550 --> 00:34:46,083
First thing that I'm putting in
1026
00:34:46,085 --> 00:34:47,551
is my pasta salad.
1027
00:34:48,953 --> 00:34:51,855
Next, I got my elote coated
in that sauce,
1028
00:34:51,857 --> 00:34:53,557
and I put that in.
1029
00:34:53,559 --> 00:34:55,926
Now, I got to start building
my sausage sandwich,
1030
00:34:55,928 --> 00:34:57,761
so I got a nice crusty bun.
1031
00:34:57,763 --> 00:34:59,296
I enter the sausage,
1032
00:34:59,298 --> 00:35:01,064
I enter the peppers and onions,
1033
00:35:01,066 --> 00:35:04,201
and I hit it with a little bit
of spicy brown mustard.
1034
00:35:04,203 --> 00:35:06,503
I'm looking at this plate
and this to-go box,
1035
00:35:06,505 --> 00:35:08,371
and I'm thinking to myself,
1036
00:35:08,373 --> 00:35:10,407
"Pack up the kids,
we're having a party."
1037
00:35:12,143 --> 00:35:13,610
[Guy] One minute.
1038
00:35:13,612 --> 00:35:14,744
[Hunter] No pressure.
1039
00:35:14,746 --> 00:35:16,847
[Cayla] Once the chicken
looks golden brown,
1040
00:35:16,849 --> 00:35:18,181
I toss them to coat
1041
00:35:18,183 --> 00:35:20,083
and get that
great barbecue flavor
1042
00:35:20,085 --> 00:35:21,551
over every crispy bite.
1043
00:35:21,553 --> 00:35:23,453
Oh, yeah, those look good.
1044
00:35:23,455 --> 00:35:26,723
[Cayla] First to get plating,
I throw down my pesto pasta.
1045
00:35:26,725 --> 00:35:28,992
Then I add my barbecue
chicken thighs.
1046
00:35:28,994 --> 00:35:32,129
I throw on my
strawberry caprese salad.
1047
00:35:32,131 --> 00:35:34,831
I'm looking down,
I'm seeing bright colors,
1048
00:35:34,833 --> 00:35:35,999
barbecue sauce,
1049
00:35:36,001 --> 00:35:37,534
I think I hit the nail
on the head
1050
00:35:37,536 --> 00:35:39,002
for the Fourth of July theme.
1051
00:35:39,004 --> 00:35:40,103
Five,
1052
00:35:40,105 --> 00:35:42,172
four, three,
1053
00:35:42,174 --> 00:35:44,274
two, one.
1054
00:35:44,276 --> 00:35:46,243
Chefs, that's it, stop working.
1055
00:35:46,245 --> 00:35:49,513
[all cheering]
1056
00:35:49,515 --> 00:35:51,148
And sparklers.
1057
00:35:52,383 --> 00:35:53,450
Pretty plate.
1058
00:35:53,452 --> 00:35:56,253
Thank you. Just gotta pray
to Flavor Gods.
1059
00:35:56,255 --> 00:35:58,488
All right, let's see whose
party plate gives
1060
00:35:58,490 --> 00:36:00,023
the judges a party to remember.
1061
00:36:00,025 --> 00:36:00,991
Let's take it to the judges.
1062
00:36:08,299 --> 00:36:10,767
This is Host with the Most,
game two.
1063
00:36:10,769 --> 00:36:12,602
Our contestants had
to make a party plate
1064
00:36:12,604 --> 00:36:15,539
that'd be the star of
a Fouth of July event
1065
00:36:15,541 --> 00:36:17,774
incorporating red, white
and blue.
1066
00:36:17,776 --> 00:36:19,609
Chef Nick, what'd you make?
1067
00:36:19,611 --> 00:36:21,044
Chefs, for you today,
1068
00:36:21,046 --> 00:36:23,246
a grilled sausage sandwich
1069
00:36:23,248 --> 00:36:26,583
with peppers and onions, with
a little spicy brown mustard.
1070
00:36:26,585 --> 00:36:28,051
A little southwestern style
1071
00:36:28,053 --> 00:36:30,120
pasta salad with
roasted peppers.
1072
00:36:30,122 --> 00:36:32,756
So, you got a nice elote
with some crema,
1073
00:36:32,758 --> 00:36:34,024
chipotle
1074
00:36:34,026 --> 00:36:35,358
and just a little bit
of blue cheese.
1075
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,761
So, for my red, red peppers,
1076
00:36:37,763 --> 00:36:39,496
for my white, onions
1077
00:36:39,498 --> 00:36:41,198
and for my blue, blue cheese.
1078
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,266
Please enjoy.
1079
00:36:43,268 --> 00:36:46,670
Nick, your gameplay here
is so strong.
1080
00:36:46,672 --> 00:36:48,939
This dish is summer,
1081
00:36:48,941 --> 00:36:50,907
and I also love that you
1082
00:36:50,909 --> 00:36:53,243
then put it in this
to-go container.
1083
00:36:53,245 --> 00:36:54,678
You gave us this story.
1084
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:57,747
It feels like a summer memory
to me 100%.
1085
00:36:57,749 --> 00:37:00,016
It was a really, really
smart and bold move,
1086
00:37:00,018 --> 00:37:02,619
mixing blue cheese
with the crema
1087
00:37:02,621 --> 00:37:04,821
and the chipotle for
the elote corn.
1088
00:37:04,823 --> 00:37:06,389
But I loved how it
all came together.
1089
00:37:06,391 --> 00:37:08,325
The corn is something
I totally expect to see
1090
00:37:08,327 --> 00:37:11,828
on an Independence day
cookout, pasta salad as well.
1091
00:37:11,830 --> 00:37:13,530
And I live for the hot dog
1092
00:37:13,532 --> 00:37:16,499
- that I allow myself to eat every few times a year...
- Yes.
1093
00:37:16,501 --> 00:37:17,734
on the Fourth of July.
1094
00:37:17,736 --> 00:37:20,136
Now, couple of technical issues
1095
00:37:20,138 --> 00:37:22,505
the blue cheese
for the color blue,
1096
00:37:22,507 --> 00:37:23,807
very clever choice.
1097
00:37:23,809 --> 00:37:26,509
Not sure if it works as well
as cotija cheese
1098
00:37:26,511 --> 00:37:28,745
- or other cheeses that you would normally use...
- Yep.
1099
00:37:28,747 --> 00:37:29,913
in elote.
1100
00:37:29,915 --> 00:37:32,148
It's got a bit of
a pungent taste
1101
00:37:32,150 --> 00:37:34,618
that may not go as well as
you may have thought.
1102
00:37:34,620 --> 00:37:36,353
- [Guy] Great job, Nick.
- Thank you.
1103
00:37:36,355 --> 00:37:37,821
Up next, Chef Cayla.
1104
00:37:37,823 --> 00:37:40,390
Hi, chefs. So today,
I made for you
1105
00:37:40,392 --> 00:37:43,159
a barbecue fried chicken thigh
1106
00:37:43,161 --> 00:37:47,364
with a pistachio,
avocado, pesto pasta
1107
00:37:47,366 --> 00:37:50,000
and a strawberry caprese salad.
1108
00:37:50,002 --> 00:37:53,570
For red, I have the strawberries
in the cherry tomatoes.
1109
00:37:53,572 --> 00:37:55,805
For white, you can see
the mozzarella
1110
00:37:55,807 --> 00:37:57,841
and the pasta
1111
00:37:57,843 --> 00:38:00,744
and then, my blue is also
my pasta box.
1112
00:38:01,879 --> 00:38:04,981
Chef Cayla, your plate
screams summer
1113
00:38:04,983 --> 00:38:06,683
from the tomatoes
and the strawberries
1114
00:38:06,685 --> 00:38:09,185
to the basil and the pesto,
1115
00:38:09,187 --> 00:38:10,487
uh, to the barbecue sauce.
1116
00:38:10,489 --> 00:38:12,022
Starting off with
the pasta salad.
1117
00:38:12,024 --> 00:38:15,959
Uh, I really love the riff of
using avocado with pistachio.
1118
00:38:15,961 --> 00:38:18,428
Pistachio is always a great,
you know vehicle,
1119
00:38:18,430 --> 00:38:21,031
but the avocado is
really, really a nice creamy,
1120
00:38:21,033 --> 00:38:22,832
without adding
a lot of excess fat.
1121
00:38:22,834 --> 00:38:26,169
The strawberry in
tomato caprese,
1122
00:38:26,171 --> 00:38:27,470
really, really smart.
1123
00:38:27,472 --> 00:38:29,339
Things that grow together,
go together.
1124
00:38:29,341 --> 00:38:31,508
[Rocco] Lots of thoughtful
technique on this plate.
1125
00:38:31,510 --> 00:38:33,977
The one place where
I wish you had grilled
1126
00:38:33,979 --> 00:38:35,145
was the chicken.
1127
00:38:35,147 --> 00:38:36,379
It's Fourth of July,
1128
00:38:36,381 --> 00:38:37,981
something needs to be grilled,
1129
00:38:37,983 --> 00:38:39,249
and it could have been
your chicken.
1130
00:38:40,251 --> 00:38:41,885
[Guy] We're gonna send you
back to the kitchens
1131
00:38:41,887 --> 00:38:43,720
and we will come up
with a decision.
1132
00:38:43,722 --> 00:38:45,455
It's gonna be a tough one,
one point lead.
1133
00:38:45,457 --> 00:38:46,923
- Good luck.
- Thank you.
1134
00:38:49,093 --> 00:38:52,562
All right, judges, which one of
the hosts gave you the most?
1135
00:38:52,564 --> 00:38:53,763
Let's jump in at Nick.
1136
00:38:53,765 --> 00:38:57,734
I think Nick chose
all the right things to make.
1137
00:38:57,736 --> 00:39:01,604
I think some of the execution
didn't follow through.
1138
00:39:01,606 --> 00:39:03,406
[Hunter] Next up, let's talk
about Cayla.
1139
00:39:03,408 --> 00:39:05,875
[Chris] I think the idea that
the chicken was barbecued
1140
00:39:05,877 --> 00:39:08,745
really tied in well
to the Fourth of July.
1141
00:39:08,747 --> 00:39:12,148
But I would have loved it to
have some of that smoky grill...
1142
00:39:12,150 --> 00:39:14,651
- [Aarti] Yeah.
- Fourth of July feeling.
1143
00:39:14,653 --> 00:39:17,087
Okay, thank very much,
let's score them up.
1144
00:39:17,089 --> 00:39:18,788
Get the totals,
post 'em on the board,
1145
00:39:18,790 --> 00:39:20,523
and let's bring the chefs
back in, please.
1146
00:39:23,828 --> 00:39:26,563
We asked you to give us
a party platter
1147
00:39:26,565 --> 00:39:28,932
to celebrate the Fourth of July.
1148
00:39:28,934 --> 00:39:31,301
You both have won
$10,000 so far,
1149
00:39:31,303 --> 00:39:34,070
and the winner of this will get a
chance to shop Flavortown Market
1150
00:39:34,072 --> 00:39:37,307
for up to $20,000.
1151
00:39:37,309 --> 00:39:39,075
So, without further ado,
1152
00:39:39,077 --> 00:39:40,744
let's take a look at the scores.
1153
00:39:40,746 --> 00:39:42,278
Chef Nick, at a 41.
1154
00:39:45,149 --> 00:39:47,317
Gameplay, 18,
1155
00:39:47,319 --> 00:39:49,152
must have been the box.
1156
00:39:49,154 --> 00:39:51,187
Taste, 14,
1157
00:39:52,523 --> 00:39:54,758
plating, a seven,
1158
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,593
for total of 39.
1159
00:39:57,762 --> 00:39:59,262
Grand total of
1160
00:39:59,264 --> 00:40:00,830
80 points.
1161
00:40:00,832 --> 00:40:03,133
[all applauding]
1162
00:40:05,002 --> 00:40:06,870
Thirty nine or better,
1163
00:40:06,872 --> 00:40:07,937
you win the whole thing.
1164
00:40:10,007 --> 00:40:11,641
Gameplay, 15,
1165
00:40:13,277 --> 00:40:14,644
taste, 15,
1166
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:17,947
plating, eight,
1167
00:40:17,949 --> 00:40:19,983
38.
1168
00:40:19,985 --> 00:40:22,285
And, ladies and gentlemen,
we have a tie.
1169
00:40:22,287 --> 00:40:24,621
- [Rocco] What?
- [Aarti] What?
1170
00:40:27,057 --> 00:40:28,491
Come on.
1171
00:40:30,361 --> 00:40:32,429
Look on your face is priceless.
1172
00:40:32,431 --> 00:40:33,496
I don't know.
1173
00:40:33,498 --> 00:40:36,032
If this doesn't get
any more weird,
1174
00:40:36,034 --> 00:40:38,301
I don't know what does.
1175
00:40:38,303 --> 00:40:39,569
Oh, my gosh.
1176
00:40:39,571 --> 00:40:41,671
Ladies and gentlemen,
I will declare this a tie
1177
00:40:41,673 --> 00:40:44,174
and award you both $10,000.
1178
00:40:44,176 --> 00:40:45,809
Okay.
1179
00:40:45,811 --> 00:40:48,611
[Guy] Congratulations. Thanks.
1180
00:40:48,613 --> 00:40:49,946
Oh, my gosh.
1181
00:40:49,948 --> 00:40:52,649
They both donated their
first $10,000,
1182
00:40:52,651 --> 00:40:54,217
we have No Kid Hungry,
1183
00:40:54,219 --> 00:40:55,485
um, which is near and dear
1184
00:40:55,487 --> 00:40:57,187
to all of us sitting
at this table.
1185
00:40:57,189 --> 00:40:58,955
- And then you had?
- North Texas Food Bank,
1186
00:40:58,957 --> 00:41:00,490
which works with
No Kid Hungry as well.
1187
00:41:00,492 --> 00:41:02,392
-[Guy] North Texas Food Bank
and as we know, -Yes, yeah.
1188
00:41:02,394 --> 00:41:03,960
We live in the greatest
country in the world,
1189
00:41:03,962 --> 00:41:06,496
and we should not have
anybody in our country,
1190
00:41:06,498 --> 00:41:08,031
especially kids,
1191
00:41:08,033 --> 00:41:09,666
that have a food insecurity.
1192
00:41:09,668 --> 00:41:12,602
So, to the both of you, I say
for the $10,000 donation,
1193
00:41:12,604 --> 00:41:14,037
- amen, thank you very much.
- Thank you.
1194
00:41:14,039 --> 00:41:15,271
[Guy] Congratulations.
Good job.
1195
00:41:15,273 --> 00:41:16,706
And on top of that,
1196
00:41:16,708 --> 00:41:19,309
We're giving you both
$10,000 more,
1197
00:41:19,311 --> 00:41:20,810
so you walk out of here
1198
00:41:20,812 --> 00:41:24,147
with $20,000
1199
00:41:24,149 --> 00:41:29,219
and ensuring the title of Co-Food
Fanatic Champ. Congratulations.
1200
00:41:29,221 --> 00:41:32,355
[all cheering]
1201
00:41:32,357 --> 00:41:33,456
[Cayla] What just happened?
1202
00:41:33,458 --> 00:41:34,891
I cannot believe that
1203
00:41:34,893 --> 00:41:38,094
Nick and I both were
able to take home the win.
1204
00:41:38,096 --> 00:41:39,963
Incredible, what a finish.
1205
00:41:39,965 --> 00:41:41,431
It's hard to put into words
1206
00:41:41,433 --> 00:41:43,099
how I even feel about the fact
1207
00:41:43,101 --> 00:41:46,269
that I've won
$20,000 in Flavortown.
1208
00:41:46,271 --> 00:41:48,271
It's absolutely surreal.
1209
00:41:48,273 --> 00:41:49,372
You've got a tie
1210
00:41:49,374 --> 00:41:51,207
the first time in
Triple G history,
1211
00:41:51,209 --> 00:41:52,876
$20,000 for Cayla,
1212
00:41:52,878 --> 00:41:54,744
$20,000 for Nick.
1213
00:41:54,746 --> 00:41:56,045
You never know
what's going to happen.
1214
00:41:56,047 --> 00:41:58,014
We'll see you next time
on Guy's Grocery Games.
1215
00:41:58,016 --> 00:41:59,282
Adios.
1216
00:41:59,284 --> 00:42:00,350
[cheering]
