A blast from the past enters the competition. Teams cook an Asian street food feast on hibachi grills, then two teams must prepare a classic French tarte tartin in the Scorcher challenge.

Four teams face off in the semifinal. First, teams whip up a seafood feast to impress chef Tom Hishon. The bottom two teams cook to save their bacon in the ultimate test of simplicity.

The three finalists cook off over two rounds, with a live fire challenge where they must prepare a whole lamb asado style and a barbecue degustation to impress legendary chef Al Brown.
