1
00:00:01,367 --> 00:00:02,266
[Guy] Fresh breads,
2
00:00:02,266 --> 00:00:03,266
delicious spreads,
3
00:00:03,266 --> 00:00:06,066
and layers on layers
of flavor.
4
00:00:06,066 --> 00:00:08,467
[chuckling] Nothing beats
a great sandwich,
5
00:00:08,467 --> 00:00:10,867
but tonight's chefs
will try to beat each other
6
00:00:10,867 --> 00:00:13,800
in a fast-paced
Flavortown sandwich face-off!
7
00:00:13,867 --> 00:00:15,533
Whoo!
8
00:00:15,533 --> 00:00:17,100
-[Guy] And I've got something
that might melt their minds!
-Oh, really?
9
00:00:17,166 --> 00:00:18,800
-Oh, boy!
-[Guy] The winner of Round One
10
00:00:18,867 --> 00:00:20,867
gets
an automatic 10,000 bucks,
11
00:00:20,867 --> 00:00:22,467
and a shot
to double their money,
12
00:00:22,467 --> 00:00:23,467
if they can beat
13
00:00:23,467 --> 00:00:25,300
the all-star judge
of their choice,
14
00:00:25,367 --> 00:00:27,166
in the Ultimate
Sandwich Showdown.
15
00:00:27,166 --> 00:00:28,367
Who will they choose?
16
00:00:28,367 --> 00:00:29,667
Who will win?
17
00:00:29,667 --> 00:00:32,967
One chef could walk away
with a total of 20,000 bucks,
18
00:00:32,967 --> 00:00:34,400
if they can beat the judges,
19
00:00:34,467 --> 00:00:36,100
tonight
on Guy's Grocery Games!
20
00:00:36,767 --> 00:00:37,800
Order!
21
00:00:41,166 --> 00:00:43,300
"Let us" meet [chuckles]
our sandwich masters.
22
00:00:43,367 --> 00:00:46,066
First up, Molly Curnyn,
an abstract artist
23
00:00:46,066 --> 00:00:48,767
who owns an artisan
grilled cheese restaurant
24
00:00:48,767 --> 00:00:50,266
in Wilmington, North Carolina.
25
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,467
[Molly] I love sandwiches
more than anybody.
26
00:00:53,467 --> 00:00:55,967
Everything is better
as a sandwich.
27
00:00:55,967 --> 00:00:58,800
At CheeseSmith, we make
all kinds of sandwiches.
28
00:00:58,867 --> 00:01:00,500
We stay on a lot
of food trends.
29
00:01:00,567 --> 00:01:02,367
We make
a lot of stuff in-house
30
00:01:02,367 --> 00:01:04,467
that take our sandwiches
to the next level.
31
00:01:04,467 --> 00:01:05,700
You ready to do this?
32
00:01:05,767 --> 00:01:07,000
-Ready!
-Go get 'em.
33
00:01:09,467 --> 00:01:12,467
Next up, we have James Choi,
self-proclaimed sandwich nerd
34
00:01:12,467 --> 00:01:14,867
and owner of a Korean-American
sandwich shop
35
00:01:14,867 --> 00:01:16,600
in San Francisco.
36
00:01:16,667 --> 00:01:19,967
[James] I'm the reigning
nerd king of sandwiches.
37
00:01:19,967 --> 00:01:23,467
I put my Korean flavors
into American classics,
38
00:01:23,467 --> 00:01:24,567
to create something
39
00:01:24,567 --> 00:01:25,967
that will blow your mind.
40
00:01:25,967 --> 00:01:27,066
There you go, brother!
41
00:01:27,066 --> 00:01:29,066
You don't look like
any sandwich nerd!
42
00:01:31,300 --> 00:01:33,867
And finally, Jeff Strauss,
a former comedy writer
43
00:01:33,867 --> 00:01:35,200
who's now the chef/owner
44
00:01:35,266 --> 00:01:37,367
of a deli sandwich spot
in L.A.
45
00:01:38,166 --> 00:01:39,000
[Jeff] At Jeff's Table,
46
00:01:39,066 --> 00:01:40,867
we make sandwiches that are
47
00:01:40,867 --> 00:01:42,800
traditional,
but with a modern twist.
48
00:01:42,867 --> 00:01:43,767
I'm really lucky.
49
00:01:43,767 --> 00:01:45,467
I had a long,
successful career
50
00:01:45,467 --> 00:01:46,667
in television comedy writing,
51
00:01:46,667 --> 00:01:48,767
including the first season
of Friends .
52
00:01:48,767 --> 00:01:50,567
I always was that guy,
53
00:01:50,567 --> 00:01:52,200
"Oh, you know, I love
cooking," and someone said,
54
00:01:52,266 --> 00:01:54,266
"Well, when are gonna
open your restaurant?"
55
00:01:54,266 --> 00:01:56,467
And I said, "No, no.
I am too smart for that."
56
00:01:56,467 --> 00:01:59,800
Well, I don't think
I'm too smart anymore.
57
00:01:59,867 --> 00:02:01,767
A comedian
walks into a grocery store.
58
00:02:01,767 --> 00:02:03,200
-Yeah, and?
-Oh, I don't know.
59
00:02:03,266 --> 00:02:04,300
That's all I started with.
60
00:02:07,266 --> 00:02:08,400
Very nice to have you.
61
00:02:08,467 --> 00:02:10,700
I am so glad that you
accepted our invitation,
62
00:02:10,767 --> 00:02:12,467
because everybody
loves a great sandwich,
63
00:02:12,467 --> 00:02:14,667
but you know what
people don't love?
64
00:02:14,667 --> 00:02:17,367
People don't love
gnarly sandwich challenges.
65
00:02:17,367 --> 00:02:18,700
They don't like trying to make
66
00:02:18,767 --> 00:02:21,467
the perfect sandwich
while fighting the clock,
67
00:02:21,467 --> 00:02:23,266
and playing ridunculous games,
68
00:02:23,266 --> 00:02:25,867
and being judged
by three celebrity judges
69
00:02:25,867 --> 00:02:27,667
that are over there,
just shaming the fact
70
00:02:27,667 --> 00:02:29,100
that you're probably
not gonna complete it
71
00:02:29,166 --> 00:02:30,767
in the period of time
that you need to.
72
00:02:30,767 --> 00:02:31,767
Guess what is fun?
73
00:02:31,767 --> 00:02:33,767
Whoever makes
the highest-scoring sandwich
74
00:02:33,767 --> 00:02:37,100
in Round One, will win
a guaranteed [clicks tongue]
75
00:02:37,100 --> 00:02:38,500
$10,000.
76
00:02:38,567 --> 00:02:39,400
-[Molly and Jeff] Wow!
-What?
77
00:02:39,467 --> 00:02:41,367
-[Guy] I mean, $10,000!
-[claps]
78
00:02:41,367 --> 00:02:42,266
Whoo-hoo!
79
00:02:42,266 --> 00:02:44,867
Now, the other side
of that coin is
80
00:02:44,867 --> 00:02:46,567
the two lowest-scoring chefs,
81
00:02:46,567 --> 00:02:48,867
well, they're gonna have to go
home after Round One,
82
00:02:48,867 --> 00:02:50,000
if they don't win.
83
00:02:50,066 --> 00:02:52,166
The winner of that first round
84
00:02:52,166 --> 00:02:56,266
will get a shot at doubling
their $10,000 in Round Two,
85
00:02:56,266 --> 00:02:58,266
but, and this is a big but,
86
00:02:59,567 --> 00:03:02,467
only if you can beat
one of our all-star judges
87
00:03:02,467 --> 00:03:04,467
-that are back there
judging you right now.
-Ooh!
88
00:03:05,500 --> 00:03:07,000
For your first challenge,
89
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,867
I want you to make the judges
90
00:03:14,767 --> 00:03:18,500
a totally decadent sandwich.
91
00:03:18,567 --> 00:03:21,166
I'm talking,
the savory, indulgent sandwich
92
00:03:21,166 --> 00:03:22,166
of your fantasies.
93
00:03:22,166 --> 00:03:23,100
You know what
I'm talking about?
94
00:03:23,166 --> 00:03:24,300
The ones you dream of,
95
00:03:24,367 --> 00:03:25,800
but, you know,
you get a fantasy sandwich.
96
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,467
Fantasy.
97
00:03:28,467 --> 00:03:30,667
Fantasy. Oops!
You know what? [claps]
98
00:03:30,667 --> 00:03:32,367
We're gonna pick
your ingredients,
99
00:03:32,367 --> 00:03:33,500
of your dream sandwich,
100
00:03:33,567 --> 00:03:35,467
the same way that
a lot of people pick
101
00:03:35,467 --> 00:03:37,100
their dream fantasy players
102
00:03:37,100 --> 00:03:39,000
in, like,
a Fantasy Food Draft.
103
00:03:39,867 --> 00:03:40,867
I'll be right back.
104
00:03:40,867 --> 00:03:41,800
Oh, boy!
105
00:03:41,867 --> 00:03:42,667
Oh, no!
106
00:03:47,467 --> 00:03:48,767
All right.
107
00:03:48,767 --> 00:03:51,000
We have bread choices.
108
00:03:51,066 --> 00:03:52,367
We have cheese choices.
109
00:03:52,367 --> 00:03:53,266
The bread choices today,
110
00:03:53,266 --> 00:03:54,667
Dutch Crunch,
111
00:03:54,667 --> 00:03:55,567
challah,
112
00:03:55,567 --> 00:03:57,600
and raisin loaf.
113
00:03:58,100 --> 00:03:59,266
And for cheeses,
114
00:03:59,266 --> 00:04:00,266
we will have
115
00:04:00,266 --> 00:04:01,166
Havarti,
116
00:04:01,166 --> 00:04:02,066
blue cheese,
117
00:04:02,667 --> 00:04:04,467
and canned processed cheese.
118
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,000
Since this is
a sandwich contest,
119
00:04:07,066 --> 00:04:09,367
we're gonna decide
by picking toothpicks.
120
00:04:09,367 --> 00:04:11,367
-I don't know why...
-Look at that!
121
00:04:11,367 --> 00:04:13,066
...you took this
out of my lunch bag.
122
00:04:13,066 --> 00:04:15,300
-This was in my lunch bag.
-Because I told you the--
123
00:04:15,367 --> 00:04:16,300
This was my sandwich.
124
00:04:16,367 --> 00:04:17,367
[all chuckling]
125
00:04:17,367 --> 00:04:19,667
We have three toothpicks,
126
00:04:20,266 --> 00:04:21,767
and the longest toothpick
127
00:04:22,367 --> 00:04:23,800
will go first
128
00:04:23,867 --> 00:04:25,467
-in picking the bread.
-Ooh!
129
00:04:25,467 --> 00:04:27,800
The shortest toothpick
will go last.
130
00:04:27,867 --> 00:04:30,667
So, when you're
the first to pick the bread,
131
00:04:30,667 --> 00:04:33,200
-you'll be the last
to pick the cheese.
-[James] Ooh!
132
00:04:33,266 --> 00:04:35,400
[Guy] So, you are
the only female in the group.
133
00:04:35,467 --> 00:04:36,900
I will let you
come pick the first toothpick.
134
00:04:36,967 --> 00:04:38,200
[whispers] Okay.
135
00:04:40,567 --> 00:04:41,900
-Oops, think about this.
-"Pick" wisely.
136
00:04:43,266 --> 00:04:44,166
Yes!
137
00:04:44,166 --> 00:04:45,166
I feel like it's pretty long.
138
00:04:45,166 --> 00:04:46,200
[Guy] What's it
gonna be, chef?
139
00:04:47,367 --> 00:04:48,200
[James] Oh no.
140
00:04:48,266 --> 00:04:49,567
-Ooh!
-[Hunter] A shorty.
141
00:04:49,567 --> 00:04:50,700
Going short, coming up.
142
00:04:50,767 --> 00:04:51,900
So, chef,
this will give you...
143
00:04:51,967 --> 00:04:52,867
[Hunter] He could get...
144
00:04:52,867 --> 00:04:54,400
Ohhh!
145
00:04:54,467 --> 00:04:55,367
[Hunter] That is really short!
146
00:04:55,367 --> 00:04:57,700
So, it's Molly, James, Jeff.
147
00:04:58,567 --> 00:05:00,767
So, Molly,
you get to go first,
148
00:05:00,767 --> 00:05:02,066
and that will be?
149
00:05:02,066 --> 00:05:03,066
The Dutch Crunch.
150
00:05:03,066 --> 00:05:04,266
[Guy] The Dutch Crunch,
very nice!
151
00:05:04,266 --> 00:05:05,600
The one in the paper.
152
00:05:05,667 --> 00:05:06,767
[Guy] Holla!
153
00:05:06,767 --> 00:05:08,100
-[laughs]
-That was a good one!
154
00:05:08,166 --> 00:05:09,133
Hey, wait a second.
155
00:05:09,133 --> 00:05:10,266
Who would like
to party with raisin bread?
156
00:05:10,266 --> 00:05:11,166
[sarcastically] Yeah, yeah!
157
00:05:11,166 --> 00:05:13,266
But, the great news is,
my friend,
158
00:05:13,266 --> 00:05:14,467
you get
first choice of cheese.
159
00:05:14,467 --> 00:05:15,567
I'll take the blue.
160
00:05:15,567 --> 00:05:17,200
Going for the blue
in the raisin!
161
00:05:17,266 --> 00:05:18,266
-Interesting.
-[Hunter] It's a bold choice.
162
00:05:18,266 --> 00:05:20,266
Havarti. Give me
the Havarti, boss.
163
00:05:20,266 --> 00:05:21,667
And, uh,
164
00:05:21,667 --> 00:05:23,300
canned processed cheese.
165
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:24,900
The good news is,
166
00:05:24,967 --> 00:05:27,400
you don't have to shop
for cheese or bread again.
167
00:05:27,467 --> 00:05:29,166
-Oh!
-The bad news is,
168
00:05:29,166 --> 00:05:31,066
that's the only cheese
and bread you get to use.
169
00:05:31,066 --> 00:05:32,266
-Oh!
-[exhaling heavily]
170
00:05:32,266 --> 00:05:34,600
Thirty minutes to create
your decadent sandwich,
171
00:05:34,667 --> 00:05:37,066
featuring
your must-have ingredients.
172
00:05:37,066 --> 00:05:38,600
Shop for anything else
you want,
173
00:05:38,667 --> 00:05:41,266
but that is the only cheese
and only bread that you get.
174
00:05:41,266 --> 00:05:42,567
-I didn't say it!
-Out of the three of you,
175
00:05:42,567 --> 00:05:43,800
which two do you think
should be the one
176
00:05:43,867 --> 00:05:45,400
that's gonna go
for all the 10 grand?
177
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:47,600
[chefs laughing]
178
00:05:49,300 --> 00:05:51,100
[Jeff] I'm supposed to make
a decadent sandwich,
179
00:05:51,166 --> 00:05:53,600
and I have to use
two whammy ingredients,
180
00:05:53,667 --> 00:05:55,567
raisin bread,
and the Roquefort,
181
00:05:56,100 --> 00:05:58,100
so it's terrifying,
182
00:05:58,667 --> 00:06:00,800
but this is what I do.
183
00:06:00,867 --> 00:06:02,800
I try to take something
a little crazy,
184
00:06:02,867 --> 00:06:05,367
and flip it into decadence,
185
00:06:05,367 --> 00:06:07,200
so I know I'm going
duck confit,
186
00:06:07,667 --> 00:06:09,567
and pate.
187
00:06:09,567 --> 00:06:13,200
I'm gonna get decadent
by bringing the richness
188
00:06:13,266 --> 00:06:15,767
of the pate
and the duck confit
189
00:06:15,767 --> 00:06:18,367
against the sweetness
of raisin bread,
190
00:06:18,367 --> 00:06:20,400
and the creamy Roquefort.
191
00:06:20,900 --> 00:06:22,000
Ooh, pate,
192
00:06:22,467 --> 00:06:23,367
duck,
193
00:06:23,367 --> 00:06:24,266
raisin bread...
194
00:06:24,266 --> 00:06:25,600
...and red onion,
195
00:06:25,667 --> 00:06:27,767
-which would be...
-Red onion, right there, chef.
196
00:06:27,767 --> 00:06:29,800
-[Jeff] Thank you.
-[Guy] I like
the way this is going.
197
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,066
[James] So, I have to use
challah bread and Havarti
198
00:06:35,066 --> 00:06:36,467
in my decadent sandwich,
199
00:06:36,467 --> 00:06:38,100
so this is hard,
because this is
200
00:06:38,166 --> 00:06:40,000
the only bread and cheese
I could use.
201
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:41,767
I'm petrified...
202
00:06:41,767 --> 00:06:44,000
[vocalizing] Ooh, ooh.
203
00:06:44,066 --> 00:06:47,367
...but my mind totally went
to katsu, ribeye.
204
00:06:47,367 --> 00:06:48,967
I swear there was
boneless ribeye.
205
00:06:48,967 --> 00:06:51,100
[James] Challah bread
reminds me
206
00:06:51,166 --> 00:06:52,867
of Japanese milk bread...
207
00:06:52,867 --> 00:06:53,867
Milk.
208
00:06:53,867 --> 00:06:55,667
...so that's
kind of the inspiration.
209
00:06:55,667 --> 00:06:58,567
I wanted something
to cleanse your palate
210
00:06:58,567 --> 00:07:02,367
of the fats, so I'm
gonna be pickling shallots,
211
00:07:02,367 --> 00:07:03,567
and Fresno,
212
00:07:03,567 --> 00:07:06,567
-and I love fresh fennel.
-Fennel.
213
00:07:07,166 --> 00:07:08,266
To make my katsu...
214
00:07:08,767 --> 00:07:09,867
Panko, panko.
215
00:07:09,867 --> 00:07:11,500
...I need panko
for the breading.
216
00:07:11,567 --> 00:07:14,500
Okay. I gotta just go.
217
00:07:14,567 --> 00:07:17,867
[Molly] My Dutch Crunch bread,
and the canned spray cheese
218
00:07:17,867 --> 00:07:20,567
are the only bread
and cheese options I can use.
219
00:07:20,567 --> 00:07:21,867
Is there boneless ribeye?
220
00:07:21,867 --> 00:07:23,100
Guy, is there boneless ribeye?
221
00:07:23,166 --> 00:07:25,100
No, but I think you could
probably butcher it.
222
00:07:25,166 --> 00:07:26,567
Did he take it all? He did!
223
00:07:26,567 --> 00:07:28,867
Something that I could
turn it into is
224
00:07:28,867 --> 00:07:30,100
a bulgogi cheesesteak.
225
00:07:30,100 --> 00:07:31,266
All right, ribeye it is.
226
00:07:31,266 --> 00:07:34,667
Bulgogi is an awesome
Korean style of fire meat.
227
00:07:34,667 --> 00:07:37,000
It's always cooked
really hot, fast,
228
00:07:37,066 --> 00:07:39,166
and it has
this delicious sauce.
229
00:07:39,166 --> 00:07:40,367
Pear. Pear, pear, pear.
230
00:07:40,367 --> 00:07:42,967
I have to make my own,
with pear juice,
231
00:07:42,967 --> 00:07:43,867
some gojuchang,
232
00:07:43,867 --> 00:07:45,100
and sesame oil.
233
00:07:45,166 --> 00:07:46,066
Sesame oil.
234
00:07:46,066 --> 00:07:47,567
[vocalizing] Where are
the onions?
235
00:07:47,567 --> 00:07:50,266
It's similar to something
we make at our restaurant.
236
00:07:50,266 --> 00:07:51,967
I would use American cheese,
237
00:07:51,967 --> 00:07:54,467
but I'll have to use
canned cheese spray.
238
00:07:54,467 --> 00:07:56,367
I thought that at least,
239
00:07:56,367 --> 00:07:58,266
I could make
a bulgogi cheesesteak.
240
00:07:59,166 --> 00:08:00,867
So, let's meet
our distinguished judges,
241
00:08:00,867 --> 00:08:01,767
who will be eating,
242
00:08:01,767 --> 00:08:03,767
and possibly,
competing tonight.
243
00:08:03,767 --> 00:08:06,500
A chef whose restaurant empire
includes four restaurants
244
00:08:06,567 --> 00:08:09,867
and four breweries, she loves
grilled cheese with masala.
245
00:08:09,867 --> 00:08:12,100
Give it up for the dancing
spice queen herself,
246
00:08:12,166 --> 00:08:14,867
the one and only
Chef Maneet Chauhan.
247
00:08:14,867 --> 00:08:16,467
Acclaimed chef,
Food Network star,
248
00:08:16,467 --> 00:08:18,667
and creator
of the Queso Parm Sandwich,
249
00:08:18,667 --> 00:08:20,767
the Hambino himself,
250
00:08:20,767 --> 00:08:22,266
Chef Christian Petroni.
251
00:08:22,266 --> 00:08:24,166
And, northern California
restaurateur
252
00:08:24,166 --> 00:08:25,967
and eight-time
Triple G winner,
253
00:08:25,967 --> 00:08:28,300
who used to own a deli,
and everything else
254
00:08:28,367 --> 00:08:29,667
in the small town
of Guerneville,
255
00:08:29,667 --> 00:08:32,266
the one and only
Chef Crista Luedtke.
256
00:08:32,266 --> 00:08:35,867
-Hambino, you just woke up.
You still got your PJs on.
-[women chuckle]
257
00:08:35,867 --> 00:08:36,767
Oh, this old thing?
258
00:08:36,767 --> 00:08:38,166
Your favorite sandwich.
259
00:08:38,166 --> 00:08:39,400
Italian combo.
260
00:08:39,467 --> 00:08:40,367
Italian combo.
261
00:08:40,367 --> 00:08:41,467
Reuben.
262
00:08:41,467 --> 00:08:42,367
-[Maneet] Mmm!
-The Reuben.
263
00:08:42,367 --> 00:08:45,100
A good grilled cheese,
or a banh mi.
264
00:08:45,166 --> 00:08:46,467
You can't pick one? I mean,
265
00:08:46,467 --> 00:08:48,400
-everybody else was able
to pick one, like an adult.
-No.
266
00:08:48,467 --> 00:08:50,166
I'll tell you
one of my favorite sandwiches.
267
00:08:50,166 --> 00:08:51,300
I'll go make one for you.
268
00:08:51,367 --> 00:08:52,667
-Do I have time?
-[Maneet] We would love
269
00:08:52,667 --> 00:08:54,166
for you to make it,
so that we can try it.
270
00:08:54,166 --> 00:08:55,100
You got time.
271
00:08:56,700 --> 00:08:58,400
All right. All right.
[growls]
272
00:08:58,467 --> 00:08:59,533
Yes!
273
00:08:59,567 --> 00:09:02,200
[Guy] Hunter, do me a favor.
Check on the chefs.
274
00:09:03,667 --> 00:09:04,567
[Hunter] Chef,
how are we doing?
275
00:09:04,567 --> 00:09:05,667
Doing great.
276
00:09:05,667 --> 00:09:07,000
What are you working on here?
What do we got?
277
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,900
I am doing
a little duck confit,
278
00:09:08,967 --> 00:09:11,000
a little blue cheese,
and liver pate,
279
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,567
to kind of, even, just bump up
that extra decadent fatness.
280
00:09:13,567 --> 00:09:15,300
[Hunter whistles] How do you
feel about the raisin bread?
281
00:09:15,367 --> 00:09:17,367
Can't let it throw you. You
gotta kinda do what you do.
282
00:09:17,367 --> 00:09:19,000
The blue cheese, you're just
gonna go melt it right on top?
283
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,266
-Blue cheese is
gonna go on top.
-Very nice.
284
00:09:21,266 --> 00:09:22,700
[Jeff] First thing
I want to do is start
285
00:09:22,767 --> 00:09:25,066
on the star of my dish,
duck confit.
286
00:09:25,066 --> 00:09:28,200
I get it into the warm pan
with some Fresno chiles,
287
00:09:28,266 --> 00:09:30,000
to add some spice.
288
00:09:31,166 --> 00:09:33,266
Next, I'm gonna work
on my crispy onions.
289
00:09:33,266 --> 00:09:34,800
The direction
that things are going
290
00:09:34,867 --> 00:09:36,567
is a little terrifying.
291
00:09:36,567 --> 00:09:38,467
I'm pretty sure it's all
gonna go together,
292
00:09:38,467 --> 00:09:40,467
but I don't know for sure.
I've certainly never done it.
293
00:09:40,467 --> 00:09:42,667
If I don't win this game,
I'm going home,
294
00:09:43,567 --> 00:09:45,166
and there's
this nagging thought
295
00:09:45,166 --> 00:09:46,266
in the back of my head.
296
00:09:46,266 --> 00:09:48,467
If I manage to eke out a win,
297
00:09:48,467 --> 00:09:51,200
I have to go against those
killer judges over there.
298
00:09:51,266 --> 00:09:52,700
-I think it's enough.
-Ten thousand bucks,
make a sandwich
299
00:09:52,767 --> 00:09:54,600
for 10,000 bucks,
sign me up!
300
00:10:04,500 --> 00:10:07,667
All we are asking
is that one of these chefs
301
00:10:07,667 --> 00:10:09,367
makes a sandwich
302
00:10:09,367 --> 00:10:11,166
worth $10,000.
303
00:10:11,166 --> 00:10:12,467
-Is that too much to ask?
-Decadent and rich.
304
00:10:12,467 --> 00:10:13,467
-Come on!
-[Christian] They already lost
305
00:10:13,467 --> 00:10:14,634
the opportunity to pick
306
00:10:14,634 --> 00:10:16,567
their own bread,
and to pick their own cheese.
307
00:10:16,567 --> 00:10:17,667
Then, they gotta go
against one of us.
308
00:10:17,667 --> 00:10:19,467
And they gotta go
against you or Maneet.
309
00:10:19,467 --> 00:10:21,700
-I mean, like, it's like,
I'd feel terrible about it.
-[laughing] Yeah!
310
00:10:22,266 --> 00:10:23,100
Tequila.
311
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:24,600
Pepper jack.
312
00:10:24,667 --> 00:10:26,367
Where's the bread
I want, here?
313
00:10:27,266 --> 00:10:29,367
And Guy is going
to make a sandwich.
314
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,800
Yes! Come to Mama!
315
00:10:35,667 --> 00:10:37,266
So, the crew
asked me, they said,
316
00:10:37,266 --> 00:10:40,000
"Hey, without looking,
what's your dad making?"
317
00:10:40,667 --> 00:10:41,667
And I guessed it.
318
00:10:41,667 --> 00:10:43,166
-Tequila turkey, right?
-Yep.
319
00:10:43,166 --> 00:10:44,367
See? Who knows their dad?
320
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:47,667
[Hunter] Chef,
how are we doing?
321
00:10:47,700 --> 00:10:50,000
[Molly] Oh, you know.
Just chilling.
322
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:51,100
Chilling? What are you making?
323
00:10:51,100 --> 00:10:52,667
[Molly] A bulgogi cheesesteak.
324
00:10:52,667 --> 00:10:54,667
How are you gonna
marinate the meat that fast?
325
00:10:54,667 --> 00:10:55,800
Gojuchang. It's powerful.
326
00:10:55,867 --> 00:10:56,767
[Hunter] And, it's delicious!
327
00:10:56,767 --> 00:10:58,367
All right. I like it!
Good luck!
328
00:10:58,367 --> 00:11:00,367
I was definitely
thrown for a loop that
329
00:11:00,367 --> 00:11:03,900
spray can cheese
would be my only cheese.
330
00:11:03,967 --> 00:11:06,800
Cheesesteak, normally
I would have on a hoagie roll,
331
00:11:06,867 --> 00:11:08,700
but I think
the Dutch Crunch will work.
332
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:10,900
Not used to cooking with gas.
333
00:11:11,700 --> 00:11:12,567
I've got a griddle.
334
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,166
Bulgogi has
an awesome Korean sauce.
335
00:11:15,166 --> 00:11:17,867
I had to kind of improvise,
and make my own.
336
00:11:17,867 --> 00:11:19,567
Pear juice
for the bulgogi sauce.
337
00:11:19,567 --> 00:11:21,567
Gojuchang, sesame oil.
338
00:11:21,567 --> 00:11:22,667
Pretty traditional,
339
00:11:22,667 --> 00:11:24,166
but the pear
would be the sweetener.
340
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,400
I was super surprised
to find out that we
341
00:11:27,467 --> 00:11:29,266
could be cooking
against one of the judges,
342
00:11:29,266 --> 00:11:30,567
and a little bit terrified.
343
00:11:33,967 --> 00:11:34,900
James, how are you doing?
344
00:11:34,967 --> 00:11:35,867
Doing good.
345
00:11:35,867 --> 00:11:38,567
You know, I haven't
used challah much,
346
00:11:38,567 --> 00:11:40,800
but we're gonna
figure it out right now.
347
00:11:40,867 --> 00:11:42,166
For my decadent sandwich,
348
00:11:42,166 --> 00:11:45,266
I'm making katsu fried
ribeye steak with Havarti,
349
00:11:45,266 --> 00:11:48,467
and fennel and apple salad
on the side.
350
00:11:48,467 --> 00:11:51,100
Oh, my God, the time.
It's so fast.
351
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:57,467
Katsu is basically anything
fried in panko bread crumbs.
352
00:11:58,467 --> 00:11:59,567
I'm thinking of my kids.
353
00:11:59,567 --> 00:12:02,800
I'm a dad of three,
so if I win today,
354
00:12:02,867 --> 00:12:05,200
I could use this money
for my family,
355
00:12:05,266 --> 00:12:07,166
and to improve my business.
356
00:12:08,667 --> 00:12:10,467
James is not even
cooking his meat.
357
00:12:10,467 --> 00:12:13,600
You want the steak
in that katsu sandwich to be
358
00:12:13,667 --> 00:12:17,066
rare to medium-rare.
That's how it's
traditionally served.
359
00:12:17,066 --> 00:12:19,567
But if you do not let it sit,
360
00:12:19,567 --> 00:12:23,367
then it's going to bleed
into the sandwich.
361
00:12:23,367 --> 00:12:24,867
All right, it looks good.
362
00:12:24,867 --> 00:12:27,266
Next, I need to make
my fennel apple salad.
363
00:12:28,166 --> 00:12:29,867
A famous chef told me,
364
00:12:30,467 --> 00:12:31,967
"Season everything."
365
00:12:33,567 --> 00:12:36,166
[Guy] This will be a tequila
turkey pepper jack sandwich.
366
00:12:37,367 --> 00:12:39,266
Throw the pepper jack cheese,
367
00:12:39,266 --> 00:12:41,367
which is perfect,
a little bit of spice to that.
368
00:12:42,300 --> 00:12:43,467
Oven,
369
00:12:44,567 --> 00:12:45,967
to get a little toast on it.
370
00:12:45,967 --> 00:12:49,667
Ah! Toasting that on the rack
also makes a big difference.
371
00:12:52,166 --> 00:12:53,767
So, we get this turkey,
372
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,300
a little bit of lime juice,
373
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,567
pepper jack cheese,
374
00:13:00,467 --> 00:13:02,367
and a little bit
of heavy cream.
375
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:05,867
That's my tequila, for sure.
376
00:13:05,867 --> 00:13:07,000
Old family favorite.
377
00:13:07,066 --> 00:13:08,166
[Hunter] It is.
It's delicious.
378
00:13:08,166 --> 00:13:09,867
Where's Mom at? She wants
some of this, for sure.
379
00:13:13,567 --> 00:13:16,600
[Jeff] I hope
to pickle this pear
380
00:13:16,667 --> 00:13:19,100
in just a little vinegar,
get a little tangy sweetness
381
00:13:19,166 --> 00:13:20,867
in there, too,
to kind of cut through it all.
382
00:13:20,867 --> 00:13:23,467
The raisin bread, I'm gonna
put it on the griddle,
383
00:13:23,467 --> 00:13:24,967
to get it toasty.
384
00:13:24,967 --> 00:13:26,667
The canvas is limitless.
385
00:13:26,667 --> 00:13:28,100
You can put anything
386
00:13:28,166 --> 00:13:30,300
on beautiful, crusty bread.
387
00:13:37,500 --> 00:13:39,100
[Molly exhaling] Okay.
388
00:13:39,166 --> 00:13:41,367
Cut while shaking,
cut while shaking.
389
00:13:41,367 --> 00:13:43,567
Crusty fried onions will
add a little bit of crunch.
390
00:13:43,567 --> 00:13:45,567
I think it'll really
help out the sandwich.
391
00:13:47,166 --> 00:13:49,667
If I win today,
I would really want to add
392
00:13:49,667 --> 00:13:51,767
a patio
to my restaurant.
393
00:13:51,767 --> 00:13:54,000
That's something we
really wanted to start with,
394
00:13:54,066 --> 00:13:55,467
make a big outdoor space.
395
00:13:57,767 --> 00:13:59,400
The steak is right there.
396
00:13:59,467 --> 00:14:00,767
Let's go, James.
397
00:14:00,767 --> 00:14:01,867
So, I look up at the clock.
398
00:14:01,867 --> 00:14:03,900
I haven't even fried my steak.
399
00:14:04,767 --> 00:14:05,600
[Hunter] Chef,
how are we doing?
400
00:14:05,667 --> 00:14:06,567
[James] Doing okay.
401
00:14:06,567 --> 00:14:07,900
Frying some good ribeye.
402
00:14:07,967 --> 00:14:10,600
Have you ever had
katsu fried ribeye?
403
00:14:10,667 --> 00:14:12,967
-I have not,
but it sounds awesome.
-Oh, okay.
404
00:14:12,967 --> 00:14:14,367
[Hunter] I'm very curious
to see how it turns out,
405
00:14:14,367 --> 00:14:15,867
and I like the style,
but you do have
406
00:14:15,867 --> 00:14:17,767
eight minutes left. Think it's
gonna work in time?
407
00:14:17,767 --> 00:14:19,200
Well, "Feet, don't
fail me now," right?
408
00:14:20,767 --> 00:14:23,967
I'm double-frying it,
to give it a crispier texture.
409
00:14:23,967 --> 00:14:25,066
Whoo!
410
00:14:25,567 --> 00:14:26,567
Come on, boys!
411
00:14:26,567 --> 00:14:29,100
I have to use the challah,
and the Havarti,
412
00:14:29,166 --> 00:14:31,200
so, into the broiler,
413
00:14:31,266 --> 00:14:33,767
to melt the cheese
and toast it at the same time.
414
00:14:33,767 --> 00:14:34,667
A little salad.
415
00:14:35,700 --> 00:14:36,700
A little salt.
416
00:14:38,100 --> 00:14:39,100
[Hunter] Six minutes!
417
00:14:41,367 --> 00:14:43,166
[Guy] Roasted turkey,
418
00:14:43,166 --> 00:14:44,166
heavy cream,
419
00:14:44,166 --> 00:14:45,100
tequila,
420
00:14:45,100 --> 00:14:46,000
lime juice,
421
00:14:46,066 --> 00:14:46,967
cilantro.
422
00:14:47,567 --> 00:14:49,166
Whoo, whoo, whoo!
423
00:14:49,166 --> 00:14:50,667
-[Maneet] Ooh, ooh!
-[Crista] Oh, my gosh!
424
00:14:50,667 --> 00:14:51,767
-Look at this!
-[Maneet] Six minutes!
425
00:14:51,767 --> 00:14:53,567
-Sangwich time!
-[Crista] Sangwich!
426
00:14:53,567 --> 00:14:54,500
-Ahhh!
-[judges chuckling]
427
00:14:54,567 --> 00:14:56,100
-Oh, my!
-Thank you, sir!
428
00:14:56,100 --> 00:14:57,800
Look at that!
Talk about bread choice!
429
00:14:57,867 --> 00:14:59,100
Oh, my God!
430
00:14:59,100 --> 00:15:00,100
[Christian] Oh, yeah!
431
00:15:01,667 --> 00:15:02,567
[Crista] It's so good.
432
00:15:02,567 --> 00:15:03,900
[Maneet] So good!
433
00:15:03,967 --> 00:15:05,767
$10,000 to that guy,
right there.
434
00:15:05,767 --> 00:15:06,800
[all chuckling]
435
00:15:06,867 --> 00:15:07,767
So, do you get the tang?
436
00:15:07,767 --> 00:15:09,233
-Do you get the--
-[Crista] Oh, yeah!
437
00:15:09,233 --> 00:15:11,166
It's so good. I'm using
my socks as a napkin.
That's okay, right?
438
00:15:11,166 --> 00:15:12,200
-That's fine.
-[Crista] Yeah. Great!
439
00:15:13,100 --> 00:15:15,367
[Guy] Three minutes!
Three minutes to plate!
440
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:18,667
I can't believe
this is actually happening!
441
00:15:18,667 --> 00:15:20,166
I got my toasted bread,
442
00:15:20,166 --> 00:15:23,867
and sprayed some
cheese spread onto the bread.
443
00:15:25,767 --> 00:15:27,667
I got the steak on there,
444
00:15:29,767 --> 00:15:32,300
kimchi, topped it
with the crispy onions,
445
00:15:36,066 --> 00:15:37,367
and put it all together.
446
00:15:39,867 --> 00:15:41,367
How's your fried ribeye going?
447
00:15:41,367 --> 00:15:42,900
-Oh...
-Are they done?
448
00:15:42,967 --> 00:15:44,567
-You know, you got the ovens.
-I'm just gonna
hope for the best.
449
00:15:44,567 --> 00:15:47,467
My katsu's still in the fryer!
Oh, my God!
450
00:15:49,266 --> 00:15:52,100
First, I put down
the fennel apple salad
451
00:15:52,100 --> 00:15:54,166
with pickled Fresnos
and shallots.
452
00:15:55,767 --> 00:15:56,600
Okay.
453
00:15:57,100 --> 00:15:57,900
[exhales]
454
00:15:59,367 --> 00:16:01,367
I pull the challah out,
455
00:16:01,867 --> 00:16:03,266
put my katsu,
456
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,266
and I cut it
to show the middle.
457
00:16:10,667 --> 00:16:13,567
[Guy] Sixty seconds!
Sixty to go, guys! Come on!
458
00:16:13,567 --> 00:16:16,166
[Jeff] There's no time left,
and I haven't started
459
00:16:16,166 --> 00:16:20,000
to build this
pretty complicated sandwich.
460
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,200
I get my toasted raisin bread
on the plate,
461
00:16:25,100 --> 00:16:26,567
then a layer of the pate.
462
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:28,400
[Guy] Thirty seconds!
463
00:16:29,667 --> 00:16:30,867
[Jeff] Next goes the confit,
464
00:16:32,567 --> 00:16:33,867
on top of that,
my pickled pear,
465
00:16:35,367 --> 00:16:36,700
then the cream Roquefort.
466
00:16:36,767 --> 00:16:38,367
There's literally
no time left.
467
00:16:38,367 --> 00:16:40,000
Five,
468
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,500
-four, three, two, one.
-[Jeff] I'm throwing arugula
at the sandwich.
469
00:16:43,567 --> 00:16:45,200
-[Molly] Done!
-That's it! Great job, chefs!
470
00:16:45,266 --> 00:16:46,567
-[all clapping]
-[Christian] Good job, guys!
471
00:16:46,567 --> 00:16:47,900
Good job, huh?
472
00:16:47,967 --> 00:16:49,166
I turn around,
473
00:16:49,166 --> 00:16:51,400
and I look
at my crispy onions.
474
00:16:51,467 --> 00:16:53,166
Why did you ditch
your fried onions?
475
00:16:53,166 --> 00:16:56,200
Well, they were either gonna
go on the side or on top.
476
00:16:56,266 --> 00:16:58,166
-I was trying to go
for "decadent."
-Where do they go?
477
00:16:58,166 --> 00:16:59,200
They go on top.
478
00:16:59,266 --> 00:17:00,900
-Did they make it?
-They did not make it.
479
00:17:00,967 --> 00:17:02,600
You cooked all these,
they didn't make it?
480
00:17:02,667 --> 00:17:04,367
I know. They're probably
pretty good, too.
481
00:17:05,100 --> 00:17:05,967
Oh!
482
00:17:05,967 --> 00:17:06,867
So good!
483
00:17:06,867 --> 00:17:08,266
[Jeff] They're delicious,
484
00:17:08,266 --> 00:17:10,100
but they're in a pile
on the sheet pan.
485
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:21,300
[Guy] All right, judges,
here we are.
486
00:17:21,300 --> 00:17:24,266
This is Game One of
"Beat the Judges' Sandwiches."
487
00:17:24,266 --> 00:17:26,066
The chefs had to create
a decadent sandwich
488
00:17:26,066 --> 00:17:27,300
using the bread and cheese
489
00:17:27,367 --> 00:17:28,700
that they picked
in a food draft,
490
00:17:28,767 --> 00:17:30,867
and the winner
of this round will earn
491
00:17:30,867 --> 00:17:32,500
[pats counter]
492
00:17:32,567 --> 00:17:34,867
$10,000, and have
a chance to double it
493
00:17:34,867 --> 00:17:36,166
if they can beat
[clears throat]
494
00:17:36,166 --> 00:17:37,133
one of you three.
495
00:17:37,166 --> 00:17:39,867
Up first, Chef James,
Havarti and challah.
496
00:17:39,867 --> 00:17:41,900
Let us know, buddy.
497
00:17:41,967 --> 00:17:45,266
[James] So, I went with
a katsu fried ribeye steak.
498
00:17:45,266 --> 00:17:47,100
Next to it, with all that fat,
499
00:17:47,100 --> 00:17:48,667
you need
to cleanse your palate,
500
00:17:48,667 --> 00:17:50,700
so we have
a fresh fennel salad
501
00:17:50,767 --> 00:17:53,500
with Gala and Granny apples.
502
00:17:59,166 --> 00:18:00,700
You gave us
a decadent sandwich.
503
00:18:00,767 --> 00:18:02,700
I mean,
what I love about it is
504
00:18:02,767 --> 00:18:05,400
the play
on the crunchy interior
505
00:18:05,467 --> 00:18:06,767
with the soft challah.
506
00:18:06,767 --> 00:18:08,400
I love the fresh little salad.
507
00:18:08,467 --> 00:18:10,400
It's a nice bite, after.
508
00:18:10,467 --> 00:18:12,667
The thing I struggle with
a little bit here is
509
00:18:12,667 --> 00:18:14,767
your bread-to-meat ratio
is a little bit off.
510
00:18:14,767 --> 00:18:16,000
It's like,
a whole lot of meat.
511
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,967
You did a really great job.
512
00:18:18,967 --> 00:18:21,100
I like the medium.
It's an easier way to go.
513
00:18:21,100 --> 00:18:22,367
It eats really well.
514
00:18:22,367 --> 00:18:23,767
Beautifully cooked,
515
00:18:23,767 --> 00:18:26,000
but it is completely
bled through,
516
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,367
because you did not
let the steak rest.
517
00:18:28,367 --> 00:18:32,567
Also, really like the way
you've got the melty cheese
518
00:18:32,567 --> 00:18:34,667
with the crunchy exterior
of the katsu.
519
00:18:34,667 --> 00:18:35,867
It works really well.
520
00:18:35,867 --> 00:18:37,367
Thank you so much.
521
00:18:37,367 --> 00:18:39,200
[Guy] All right!
Up next, Chef Molly.
522
00:18:39,266 --> 00:18:42,700
-Yes.
-[Guy] Dutch Crunch,
and canned American cheese.
523
00:18:42,767 --> 00:18:45,066
[Molly] I made
a bulgogi cheesesteak.
524
00:18:45,066 --> 00:18:47,200
I marinated the sirloin
525
00:18:47,266 --> 00:18:50,066
in some
homemade bulgogi sauce.
526
00:18:50,066 --> 00:18:51,467
I added some kimchi,
527
00:18:51,467 --> 00:18:53,166
to cut through
that rich steak,
528
00:18:53,166 --> 00:18:55,467
and then I used
my cheese spray
529
00:18:55,467 --> 00:18:58,467
for a little
nice cheesy action,
530
00:18:58,467 --> 00:18:59,800
a little salty bite.
531
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,200
Molly, what a great idea!
532
00:19:04,266 --> 00:19:06,467
A cheesesteak, right?
533
00:19:06,467 --> 00:19:08,367
I mean, and especially,
given the fact
534
00:19:08,367 --> 00:19:10,166
that you got canned cheese,
535
00:19:10,166 --> 00:19:12,867
I think that was
a really smart game play.
536
00:19:12,867 --> 00:19:15,467
Molly, I've never had
537
00:19:15,467 --> 00:19:17,100
this bread
with the crunchy stuff on top,
538
00:19:17,166 --> 00:19:18,500
and I absolutely love it,
539
00:19:18,567 --> 00:19:20,266
and I like the way
you treated it.
540
00:19:20,266 --> 00:19:22,266
I love the way
you treated your steak.
541
00:19:22,266 --> 00:19:23,967
I'm missing the cheese,
542
00:19:23,967 --> 00:19:26,500
and I'm also
missing lubrication.
543
00:19:26,567 --> 00:19:28,066
-Right? Like a mayo,
or something?
-[Molly] Yeah, for sure.
544
00:19:28,066 --> 00:19:29,000
Yep.
545
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,066
[Crista] It definitely
reads dry.
546
00:19:30,066 --> 00:19:32,567
So, you had that
American canned cheese.
547
00:19:32,567 --> 00:19:33,467
It was...
548
00:19:33,467 --> 00:19:34,667
What seemed like a whammy
549
00:19:34,667 --> 00:19:36,367
could have been
a really great thing,
550
00:19:36,367 --> 00:19:38,467
to just really
goop that thing up,
551
00:19:38,467 --> 00:19:42,200
but the flavors definitely
read "decadence" to me,
552
00:19:42,266 --> 00:19:44,166
and it is
a real inviting sandwich.
553
00:19:44,467 --> 00:19:45,700
Thank you.
554
00:19:45,700 --> 00:19:48,600
Not to be outdone, Chef Jeff,
raisin bread and Roquefort.
555
00:19:48,667 --> 00:19:49,467
What do you got, bud?
556
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:51,200
[Jeff] I gave you
557
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,166
a duck confit
and liver pate mousse,
558
00:19:54,166 --> 00:19:55,867
Roquefort,
and raisin bread sandwich,
559
00:19:55,867 --> 00:19:58,567
with a little bit
of pickled pear,
560
00:19:58,567 --> 00:19:59,867
a tiny bit of fennel in that.
561
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:06,667
When this sandwich
came in front of me,
562
00:20:06,667 --> 00:20:09,367
we already knew that
you were climbing a mountain,
563
00:20:09,367 --> 00:20:11,800
you had a mountain
to climb to get past, right?
564
00:20:11,867 --> 00:20:13,467
But when I take
a bite of this,
565
00:20:13,467 --> 00:20:15,567
it, like... [claps]
It plays.
566
00:20:15,567 --> 00:20:19,166
The choice of the duck confit
was really smart,
567
00:20:19,166 --> 00:20:21,867
because duck confit
is inherently decadent.
568
00:20:21,867 --> 00:20:24,100
The raisins play
really great against it.
569
00:20:24,166 --> 00:20:26,166
I love the funk
of the blue cheese, man.
570
00:20:26,166 --> 00:20:27,767
Sleeper hit. Wow!
571
00:20:27,767 --> 00:20:29,000
The flavors that
you have in here,
572
00:20:29,066 --> 00:20:30,467
it's a beautiful acid
573
00:20:30,467 --> 00:20:32,667
paired against
this raisin bread, delicious.
574
00:20:32,667 --> 00:20:34,700
So really smart combination.
575
00:20:34,767 --> 00:20:36,000
Nicely done.
576
00:20:36,066 --> 00:20:37,467
Thank you, chef.
577
00:20:37,467 --> 00:20:41,266
I do think that your idea
of those fried onions
was a great one.
578
00:20:41,266 --> 00:20:44,867
Because it would have given
it that savory crunchiness,
579
00:20:44,867 --> 00:20:46,967
which would have been
a welcome respite
580
00:20:46,967 --> 00:20:49,567
when we are taking
this rich, decadent bite.
581
00:20:50,467 --> 00:20:51,367
Thank you.
582
00:20:51,367 --> 00:20:53,500
Thank you very much, chefs.
583
00:20:53,567 --> 00:20:56,967
One of you is gonna win
$10,000 in a few minutes,
584
00:20:56,967 --> 00:21:00,500
the other two are gonna say,
uh, buh-bye.
585
00:21:00,567 --> 00:21:03,000
But until that happens,
everybody's in the running.
586
00:21:03,066 --> 00:21:04,133
I'm gonna send you back
to the kitchens.
587
00:21:04,133 --> 00:21:05,967
we'll make some decisions,
and we'll call you back.
588
00:21:05,967 --> 00:21:07,033
Thank you.
589
00:21:10,700 --> 00:21:13,767
Judges how do these decadent
sandwiches stack up?
590
00:21:16,767 --> 00:21:18,967
Remember, we have 20 points
available in gameplay,
591
00:21:18,967 --> 00:21:21,667
20 points available in taste,
and 10 points for plating,
592
00:21:21,667 --> 00:21:23,667
for a possible of 50 points.
593
00:21:33,700 --> 00:21:35,266
Well, before we do this,
594
00:21:35,266 --> 00:21:38,100
I'll let you know the judges
are nervous about going
against one of you,
595
00:21:38,166 --> 00:21:40,367
but we're gonna get
into the scores right now.
596
00:21:41,367 --> 00:21:42,667
We'll start off with Molly.
597
00:21:42,667 --> 00:21:44,567
50 points available over all.
598
00:21:45,367 --> 00:21:47,000
17 in gameplay...
599
00:21:47,467 --> 00:21:49,100
...13 in taste...
600
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,066
...7 in plating,
for a total of 37.
601
00:21:54,467 --> 00:21:55,266
Good score.
602
00:21:56,667 --> 00:21:57,800
James.
603
00:21:58,367 --> 00:22:00,266
16 in gameplay...
604
00:22:01,100 --> 00:22:02,867
...16 in taste...
605
00:22:02,867 --> 00:22:05,400
...7 in plating for a 39.
606
00:22:05,467 --> 00:22:06,767
Very nice score.
607
00:22:08,700 --> 00:22:11,700
Jeff has got to get
a 39 or better.
608
00:22:13,567 --> 00:22:15,066
17 in gameplay...
609
00:22:15,567 --> 00:22:17,467
...16 in taste...
610
00:22:17,467 --> 00:22:20,567
...7 in plating
and a 1 point win!
611
00:22:20,567 --> 00:22:22,100
-[Christian] Whoo!
-Congratulations, Jeff.
612
00:22:22,166 --> 00:22:23,567
Oh, my God.
613
00:22:23,567 --> 00:22:25,767
-[Crista] I know.
-One point win.
614
00:22:25,767 --> 00:22:27,266
Listen, chefs,
I'll tell you something.
615
00:22:27,266 --> 00:22:30,467
Very respectful scores,
especially in a crazy
sandwich setup.
616
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,400
Thank you very much.
617
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:33,567
-[Maneet] Thank you.
Take care, you guys.
-[Christian] Good job.
618
00:22:33,567 --> 00:22:34,600
[Crista] Really good job.
619
00:22:34,667 --> 00:22:37,367
I was sad to be eliminated
but it was super fun,
620
00:22:37,367 --> 00:22:39,700
and I think that Jeff
deserved it.
621
00:22:39,767 --> 00:22:41,567
I hope my kids
are proud of me,
622
00:22:41,567 --> 00:22:44,567
and hope they thought
I did a good job.
623
00:22:46,867 --> 00:22:49,100
-Congratulations,
you just won $10,000!
-Yeah!
624
00:22:49,100 --> 00:22:50,600
-That's incredible, thank you.
-[Guy] Well done.
625
00:22:50,667 --> 00:22:52,500
Well done, 10,000 bucks.
626
00:22:52,567 --> 00:22:56,100
Now you have a chance
to win an additional $10,000,
627
00:22:56,166 --> 00:23:01,000
if you could beat one
of our superstar judges
in a final sandwich showdown.
628
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,300
So let's take a look
at who we have for you.
629
00:23:03,367 --> 00:23:04,667
Now first we have
Christian Petroni.
630
00:23:04,667 --> 00:23:08,266
He was the season 14
Food Network Star.
631
00:23:08,266 --> 00:23:09,700
Now, Crista Luedtke,
632
00:23:09,700 --> 00:23:12,667
eight times she's competed
here and eight times
she's won triple G,
633
00:23:12,667 --> 00:23:15,767
with over $100,000
in winnings.
634
00:23:15,767 --> 00:23:18,266
And then... there's this one.
635
00:23:18,266 --> 00:23:19,700
Chef Maneet Chauhan.
636
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:21,400
Culinary empire.
637
00:23:21,467 --> 00:23:23,266
She won, um... [snaps fingers]
638
00:23:23,266 --> 00:23:24,700
-That new show.
-[Guy] Uh...
639
00:23:24,700 --> 00:23:26,166
-What was that show called?
-[Crista] What's that
thing called?
640
00:23:26,166 --> 00:23:27,467
[Guy] It's not,
it's... it's...
641
00:23:27,467 --> 00:23:28,400
-Crista, you know!
-Oh, I know.
642
00:23:28,467 --> 00:23:30,166
Crista, what's the name
of that show?
643
00:23:30,166 --> 00:23:33,266
-Tournament of Champions.
-[Guy] Oh, that's right!
Tournament of Champions.
644
00:23:33,266 --> 00:23:36,767
So, all masters of sandwich
in one form or another.
645
00:23:36,767 --> 00:23:38,667
What do you think, Jeff?
Who... Who's it gonna be?
646
00:23:41,767 --> 00:23:45,567
I am gonna go
east coast, west coast.
647
00:23:45,567 --> 00:23:46,767
-East coast, west coast!
-Whoo-hoo!
648
00:23:46,767 --> 00:23:48,367
-[Crista] The Hambino!
-[Guy] Versus the Hambino.
649
00:23:48,367 --> 00:23:50,467
-[Exclaiming]
-Step right up, Hambino.
650
00:23:50,467 --> 00:23:53,567
So we, of course...
we're gonna need
a stand-in judge.
651
00:23:53,567 --> 00:23:56,000
Let's go in and bring
my son, Hunter Fieri.
652
00:23:56,066 --> 00:23:57,700
-Yes!
-Hunter, step on in.
653
00:23:57,767 --> 00:23:59,467
[Christian cheering]
654
00:23:59,467 --> 00:24:00,867
-Hey babe, how you doin'?
-How you doin'?
655
00:24:00,867 --> 00:24:04,000
So, there we go, Hunter took
his stock boy outfit off.
656
00:24:04,066 --> 00:24:05,400
This is it, fantastic.
657
00:24:05,467 --> 00:24:07,567
I've got three judges,
I've got two competitors.
658
00:24:07,567 --> 00:24:10,367
I've got a final round,
I've got 10,000 bucks
on the board.
659
00:24:10,367 --> 00:24:12,166
Round two starts now.
660
00:24:12,166 --> 00:24:13,767
Chefs to your carts.
Good luck.
661
00:24:16,066 --> 00:24:19,567
Gentleman, this
is the final battle of beat
the judges sandwiches.
662
00:24:19,567 --> 00:24:23,300
Chef Jeff, you already
sent home two really
great sandwich makers.
663
00:24:23,367 --> 00:24:25,767
And you have won 10,000 bucks.
664
00:24:25,767 --> 00:24:27,767
Now, you got to choose
anybody you wanted,
665
00:24:27,767 --> 00:24:30,166
you picked the great Hambino,
Christian Petroni.
666
00:24:30,166 --> 00:24:33,667
And it is the ultimate
sandwich showdown,
worth another $10,000.
667
00:24:33,667 --> 00:24:36,166
For the ultimate
sandwich showdown,
668
00:24:36,166 --> 00:24:38,600
I want you to make
everyone's favorite.
669
00:24:44,667 --> 00:24:48,700
I want you to make
a mile high sandwich.
670
00:24:48,767 --> 00:24:53,000
Give your remaining
judges layer upon layer
upon layer...
671
00:24:53,667 --> 00:24:55,767
...of great sandwich flavor.
672
00:24:55,767 --> 00:25:00,166
Most importantly,
I want you to use
exactly 10 ingredients.
673
00:25:02,100 --> 00:25:03,567
Oh.
674
00:25:03,567 --> 00:25:08,200
-Because we're playing
"One Ingredient Per Aisle."
-[Christian] Ugh.
675
00:25:08,266 --> 00:25:09,467
Ooh.
676
00:25:09,467 --> 00:25:10,700
This is your fault, probably.
677
00:25:10,767 --> 00:25:12,000
-You shouldn't a picked me.
-[Guy] Chiggidy chow.
678
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,467
-You should have never
picked me.
-[Guy] Chiggidy chow.
679
00:25:14,467 --> 00:25:17,266
You have to shop all 10 aisles
for 10 ingredients
680
00:25:17,266 --> 00:25:20,967
that you must use
in your dish.
681
00:25:20,967 --> 00:25:24,200
Because we are having
a special introduction
to things,
682
00:25:24,266 --> 00:25:25,800
we're not gonna do
the "3, 2, 1, Go."
683
00:25:26,300 --> 00:25:27,300
All right?
684
00:25:27,367 --> 00:25:28,867
[Christian laughs]
685
00:25:28,867 --> 00:25:30,000
[Jeff exclaims]
686
00:25:32,100 --> 00:25:33,266
Here we go!
687
00:25:34,767 --> 00:25:36,567
Aisle 10 is flashing.
688
00:25:36,567 --> 00:25:40,567
Look at this, what kind
of grocery store
has a lighting system?
689
00:25:40,567 --> 00:25:41,767
Aisle 10, all right.
690
00:25:41,767 --> 00:25:44,200
I need to make
a mile high "sangwich",
691
00:25:44,266 --> 00:25:47,300
but I can only choose
one ingredient per aisle.
692
00:25:47,367 --> 00:25:49,867
Which means you're building
your dish as you go.
693
00:25:49,867 --> 00:25:52,000
[Jeff] So we start off in...
in the most important aisle,
694
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,166
which is aisle 10.
695
00:25:53,166 --> 00:25:54,867
And you gotta make a choice.
696
00:25:54,867 --> 00:25:55,867
It's gonna be meat...
697
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,166
...or cheese.
698
00:25:58,166 --> 00:25:59,467
And I go smoked turkey.
699
00:25:59,467 --> 00:26:01,867
[Guy] And Jeff went
with turkey.
700
00:26:01,867 --> 00:26:04,000
[Christian] I see the jumbo
pack of bacon,
701
00:26:04,066 --> 00:26:06,367
and I know that this
is a no brainer,
702
00:26:06,367 --> 00:26:08,066
I found my protein.
703
00:26:08,066 --> 00:26:11,000
[Guy] Aisle nine:
frozen and bread.
704
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,600
Aisle nine.
[fake scanning noises] Boom!
705
00:26:13,667 --> 00:26:14,767
Texas Toast.
706
00:26:14,767 --> 00:26:16,667
It's thick, it's buttery.
707
00:26:16,667 --> 00:26:20,367
and it's gonna help me
to build my mile
high "sangwich".
708
00:26:20,367 --> 00:26:22,667
[Jeff] And I grab the Dutch
Crunch rolls,
709
00:26:22,667 --> 00:26:25,800
because they've got
height already,
they've got great flavor.
710
00:26:25,867 --> 00:26:28,066
For my mile high sandwich,
711
00:26:28,066 --> 00:26:32,667
I'm gonna make
a double-decker,
double-turkey sandwich.
712
00:26:32,667 --> 00:26:36,767
[Guy] Aisle eight:
Candies, chips, coffee,
cookies, cereal.
713
00:26:36,767 --> 00:26:39,200
[Christian] Aisle eight,
I'm perusing, I'm lookin'.
714
00:26:39,266 --> 00:26:41,367
I see a ton of chips.
715
00:26:41,367 --> 00:26:43,567
I wanna use it
for its texture, right?
716
00:26:44,867 --> 00:26:49,066
I am making a bacon-y,
crunchy sangwich
717
00:26:49,066 --> 00:26:52,100
called the "Gluttonious
Hambonious".
718
00:26:52,166 --> 00:26:53,433
♪ Hallelujah hallelujah♪
719
00:26:53,467 --> 00:26:56,166
[Jeff] I grab pork rinds,
salt and vinegar pork rinds,
720
00:26:56,166 --> 00:26:57,867
because they have
that little sore note
721
00:26:57,867 --> 00:26:59,467
that... that brings
a little brightness.
722
00:26:59,467 --> 00:27:01,467
I have no idea
how I'm gonna use 'em.
723
00:27:01,467 --> 00:27:06,367
[Guy] Aisle seven:
syrups, popcorn, candy,
condensed milk.
724
00:27:06,367 --> 00:27:08,700
[Crista] Honestly?
I've had this game twice,
725
00:27:08,767 --> 00:27:11,567
it is the worst game,
hands down, in this kitchen.
726
00:27:11,567 --> 00:27:13,967
I am so glad
that I am not competing
in this.
727
00:27:13,967 --> 00:27:15,367
This would be
a really tough one.
728
00:27:15,367 --> 00:27:17,700
[Jeff] Aisle seven:
baking goods.
729
00:27:17,767 --> 00:27:19,367
Not a lotta stuff,
I can do here.
730
00:27:19,367 --> 00:27:21,667
And then I see the jerky.
731
00:27:21,667 --> 00:27:26,400
And I have this idea,
I can do double decker,
double turkey jerky.
732
00:27:26,467 --> 00:27:29,000
[Christian] Aisle seven,
I see the hot honey.
733
00:27:29,066 --> 00:27:31,867
It's gonna be perfect
to glaze this bacon.
734
00:27:31,867 --> 00:27:36,867
Here we go, baby food,
and international aisle
of mystery.
735
00:27:40,100 --> 00:27:41,867
[Christian] Aisle six,
I'm a little stumped.
736
00:27:41,867 --> 00:27:45,000
There's some new
mystery ingredients right here
from other countries.
737
00:27:45,066 --> 00:27:47,767
We bought a storage container,
it had all of this on it.
738
00:27:47,767 --> 00:27:50,000
We don't know exactly
what these ingredients are.
739
00:27:50,066 --> 00:27:53,800
I find a little
fermented chili, I think.
740
00:27:53,867 --> 00:27:55,667
I don't know what
it's gonna taste like,
but I take a gamble.
741
00:27:55,667 --> 00:27:57,367
I do see the chilis...
742
00:27:57,367 --> 00:27:58,967
Oh.
743
00:27:58,967 --> 00:28:01,800
...the jarred chilis
and so I go for that
and hope for the best.
744
00:28:01,867 --> 00:28:04,000
[Guy] Okay, aisle five!
745
00:28:04,066 --> 00:28:06,400
-[Christian] Lovely.
-[Guy] Kingdom
of canned goods.
746
00:28:06,467 --> 00:28:09,367
[Christian] Aisle five,
I see that boxed mac
and cheese
747
00:28:09,367 --> 00:28:11,300
and I'm like, "Let's play".
748
00:28:11,367 --> 00:28:15,367
I want it to be
in the sandwich,
sort of cascading over.
749
00:28:15,367 --> 00:28:16,800
I grab a little
French onion dip.
750
00:28:16,867 --> 00:28:18,166
I'm gonna use it
to make a sauce.
751
00:28:18,166 --> 00:28:19,667
[Guy] Going to aisle four.
752
00:28:19,667 --> 00:28:22,567
Pastas, pasta sauce,
international.
753
00:28:22,567 --> 00:28:24,300
[Christian] I go
for the tomato bouillon.
754
00:28:24,367 --> 00:28:27,266
Now, I know I can do something
with this powder.
755
00:28:27,266 --> 00:28:28,467
So I'm definitely taking it.
756
00:28:28,467 --> 00:28:30,266
In aisle four, I grab tahini.
757
00:28:30,266 --> 00:28:32,300
I'm kind of blindly
grabbing things,
758
00:28:32,367 --> 00:28:33,900
but I'm hoping
I can make some magic.
759
00:28:33,967 --> 00:28:35,500
Tall magic.
760
00:28:35,567 --> 00:28:38,700
Aisle three. You can't lose,
just grab some booze.
761
00:28:39,667 --> 00:28:42,100
I have the mac and cheese
from aisle five.
762
00:28:42,100 --> 00:28:46,166
And I see the beer,
so I'm like, "Oh,
beer mac and cheese."
763
00:28:46,166 --> 00:28:48,467
Aisle three, I don't go
for booze, I go for bitters.
764
00:28:48,467 --> 00:28:51,166
I want something
that I don't have to cook...
765
00:28:51,166 --> 00:28:52,634
...to bring flavor.
766
00:28:52,634 --> 00:28:54,567
I've got all these things
that I think can
work together,
767
00:28:54,567 --> 00:28:56,266
but I haven't decided how.
768
00:28:56,266 --> 00:28:58,867
And next up,
aisle two: condiments.
769
00:28:58,867 --> 00:29:01,000
[Jeff] I can get one thing,
I need mayonnaise.
770
00:29:01,066 --> 00:29:02,567
It's heaven
for a sandwich maker.
771
00:29:02,567 --> 00:29:05,100
[Christian] I see the mayo,
super easy, right?
772
00:29:05,100 --> 00:29:07,100
All right, gentleman,
in your final aisle.
773
00:29:07,100 --> 00:29:09,166
Aisle one: produce!
774
00:29:09,166 --> 00:29:11,900
In my opinion, there's only
one thing that you need
in aisle one,
775
00:29:11,967 --> 00:29:13,667
and that is the avocado.
776
00:29:13,667 --> 00:29:15,066
In the produce aisle,
777
00:29:15,066 --> 00:29:17,900
I'm grabbing a shot
at redemption,
with red onions.
778
00:29:18,867 --> 00:29:19,834
[Guy] You good?
779
00:29:19,867 --> 00:29:22,000
Gentleman, to your stations!
Start cooking.
780
00:29:22,066 --> 00:29:25,367
Going up against Christian
is super daunting.
781
00:29:25,367 --> 00:29:26,400
[Christian] As much
as I want it,
782
00:29:26,467 --> 00:29:29,000
there is no one
in this supermarket
783
00:29:29,066 --> 00:29:30,567
that wants it more
than Jeff right now.
784
00:29:32,967 --> 00:29:35,367
[Guy] This should be good.
785
00:29:45,867 --> 00:29:48,667
The interesting thing
about this game,
"One Ingredient Per Aisle",
786
00:29:48,667 --> 00:29:52,266
is you've got 10 things,
you've gotta use all 10.
787
00:29:52,266 --> 00:29:55,000
And they're building
a mile high sandwich.
788
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,367
-They can't use
anything else.
-No.
789
00:29:57,367 --> 00:29:58,700
This is a tough game.
790
00:29:59,567 --> 00:30:01,300
[Guy] 25 minutes!
791
00:30:02,166 --> 00:30:03,867
What's your idea, Hambino?
792
00:30:03,867 --> 00:30:06,000
Bacon sandwich glazed
with, like, hot honey.
793
00:30:06,066 --> 00:30:08,166
Texas Toast, 'cause it's cut
nice and thick already,
794
00:30:08,166 --> 00:30:09,166
so it's gonna help
me with my height.
795
00:30:09,166 --> 00:30:10,600
I really want to go decadent,
796
00:30:10,667 --> 00:30:13,467
so I'm gonna make this,
like, mac and beer cheese.
797
00:30:13,467 --> 00:30:14,400
I'm stoked, dude.
798
00:30:14,467 --> 00:30:15,567
Hey, start cookin'.
799
00:30:15,567 --> 00:30:17,100
All right, got it, thank you.
800
00:30:17,166 --> 00:30:18,266
I'm messing with ya.
801
00:30:18,266 --> 00:30:19,467
[chuckles]
802
00:30:19,467 --> 00:30:21,300
First thing I'm getting
started on is my bacon.
803
00:30:21,367 --> 00:30:23,467
I wanna get a big cast iron,
804
00:30:23,467 --> 00:30:26,467
and I very simply
just want to start rendering
that bacon.
805
00:30:26,467 --> 00:30:28,467
Interesting approach.
You're not gonna cook
the bacon in the oven?
806
00:30:28,467 --> 00:30:30,367
You're just gonna go
for this big...
807
00:30:30,367 --> 00:30:33,266
I'm goin' kinda, like,
just throw it all in a pan.
808
00:30:33,266 --> 00:30:34,667
I want some crispy.
809
00:30:34,667 --> 00:30:36,667
I want some not as crispy.
810
00:30:36,667 --> 00:30:38,266
As it starts to render,
811
00:30:38,266 --> 00:30:41,266
I'm gonna add
a good amount
of that hot honey.
812
00:30:42,900 --> 00:30:45,367
And some of the Asian
jarred chilis.
813
00:30:45,367 --> 00:30:50,166
The hot, spicy, sticky,
caramelized bacon.
814
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:51,900
Ugh, I love it.
815
00:30:51,967 --> 00:30:54,000
Next thing I'm gonna do
is give the Texas Toast
816
00:30:54,066 --> 00:30:56,367
the TLC that I know
it deserves.
817
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,700
My strategy is cook
something that I would
wanna eat...
818
00:31:04,467 --> 00:31:05,367
...at 2 A.M.
819
00:31:07,166 --> 00:31:08,367
How's it goin'
over there, chef?
820
00:31:08,367 --> 00:31:10,000
So far so good, chef.
How you feeling?
821
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,367
Like you're gonna kill me,
but, you know,
I'm gonna try.
822
00:31:12,367 --> 00:31:14,000
No, stop.
823
00:31:14,066 --> 00:31:15,667
[Christian] So, yeah,
I wanna win.
824
00:31:15,667 --> 00:31:18,066
Can you imagine?
Like, I'm a judge here.
825
00:31:18,066 --> 00:31:19,667
I was on Tournament
of Champions!
826
00:31:19,667 --> 00:31:21,100
I won Food Network Star.
827
00:31:21,100 --> 00:31:23,200
I can't have Jeff take me out.
828
00:31:23,266 --> 00:31:26,667
-I think Jeff has just got
the taste of a win.
-Yes.
829
00:31:26,667 --> 00:31:27,767
[Maneet] He's so ready.
830
00:31:27,767 --> 00:31:29,500
-[Crista] And he's warmed up.
Right?
-I know.
831
00:31:32,500 --> 00:31:34,467
All right, chef.
Tell me what's on
the menu, bud.
832
00:31:34,467 --> 00:31:39,400
I got a mile high
turkey and jerky sandwich.
833
00:31:39,467 --> 00:31:41,200
A little French onion dip
for my mayo.
834
00:31:41,266 --> 00:31:43,400
And I'm gonna go back
to those fried onions again.
835
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,467
[Guy] And bitters.
836
00:31:45,467 --> 00:31:47,767
Jeff has some interesting
ingredient choices.
837
00:31:47,767 --> 00:31:49,200
-Yeah.
-He's got tahini.
838
00:31:49,266 --> 00:31:51,567
-He's got, like, some chili.
-Bitters.
839
00:31:51,567 --> 00:31:53,066
Bitters and... and mayo?
840
00:31:53,066 --> 00:31:54,667
-[Hunter] Bitters, mayo--
-Interesting.
841
00:31:54,667 --> 00:31:57,066
[Jeff] I'm gonna start
with one of the costars,
smoked turkey,
842
00:31:57,066 --> 00:32:00,467
so I treat it
with a little chili paste,
and tahini.
843
00:32:00,467 --> 00:32:04,100
Tahini is gonna add
this kind of nutty umami.
844
00:32:04,166 --> 00:32:07,700
I get it on the grill,
to bring out that sorta
smoky, meaty flavor.
845
00:32:07,767 --> 00:32:09,800
Next I'm gonna work
on the mayo, jerky spread.
846
00:32:10,867 --> 00:32:13,100
Mix the bitters
in with the mayo,
847
00:32:13,100 --> 00:32:15,400
and I get that umami
flavor building up.
848
00:32:17,867 --> 00:32:21,667
So I started by hand chopping
the jerky, but it wasn't
getting fine enough,
849
00:32:21,667 --> 00:32:23,166
so I threw it into
the food processor.
850
00:32:23,166 --> 00:32:26,767
With the mayo and pork rinds
and finish up.
851
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,100
If I win this $20,000,
852
00:32:32,100 --> 00:32:36,266
I'm gonna split it between
my team, who works with me
at the deli...
853
00:32:36,266 --> 00:32:40,767
...and a charity
in Los Angeles,
Polo's Pantry.
854
00:32:40,767 --> 00:32:46,000
They help feed the local
unhoused population
in Los Angeles,
855
00:32:46,066 --> 00:32:47,000
and they're really incredible.
856
00:32:48,166 --> 00:32:51,700
Chefs, we've got 17 minutes.
17 to go.
857
00:32:51,767 --> 00:32:53,467
[Christian laughs]
858
00:32:53,467 --> 00:32:58,266
Now, it's time to address
my beer of mac
and cheese, baby.
859
00:33:00,066 --> 00:33:01,000
[Guy] How we lookin', Hambino?
860
00:33:01,066 --> 00:33:02,600
We got the beer here goin'...
861
00:33:02,667 --> 00:33:04,367
...for our macaroni
and beer cheese.
862
00:33:04,367 --> 00:33:08,066
Why use water
to dilute the flavors
of this beer.
863
00:33:08,066 --> 00:33:10,667
We're gonna just cook
the pasta in beer.
864
00:33:10,667 --> 00:33:13,166
It is just gonna impart
more flavor.
865
00:33:13,166 --> 00:33:14,667
That beer is strong.
866
00:33:14,667 --> 00:33:15,867
I didn't realize
how hoppy it was,
867
00:33:15,867 --> 00:33:17,700
but I think that's
gonna work to my advantage.
868
00:33:17,767 --> 00:33:19,667
Christian used an IPA
for his mac and cheese.
869
00:33:19,667 --> 00:33:21,200
That's a pretty bitter beer.
870
00:33:21,266 --> 00:33:24,867
You know,
it's in the mac and cheese,
maybe the two together--
871
00:33:24,867 --> 00:33:26,767
-[Hunter] Can balance
out? Yeah.
-[Crista] Yeah.
872
00:33:26,767 --> 00:33:28,667
[Christian] And the last thing
I need to work on
873
00:33:28,667 --> 00:33:31,300
is the thing that I know
is gonna take me over the top.
874
00:33:31,367 --> 00:33:34,667
And that is gonna be
my creamy, avocado mayo.
875
00:33:34,667 --> 00:33:37,367
You're gonna get
some freshness
from that avocado,
876
00:33:37,367 --> 00:33:42,266
and great depth of flavor
from that chicken bouillon
powder that we threw in there.
877
00:33:44,266 --> 00:33:45,567
Don't tell nobody
about that, all right?
878
00:33:48,567 --> 00:33:49,600
All right, chef,
how we lookin'?
879
00:33:49,667 --> 00:33:51,066
You got 10 minutes left.
880
00:33:51,066 --> 00:33:52,367
[Jeff] I'm feeling pretty
good this time,
881
00:33:52,367 --> 00:33:53,700
we'll see if I can
get it right.
882
00:33:54,767 --> 00:33:57,867
I'm gonna make
the same fried onions,
but I don't have milk.
883
00:33:57,867 --> 00:33:59,266
So I'm gonna put 'em
in some mayo.
884
00:33:59,266 --> 00:34:01,600
And also, I can use
the onions two ways.
885
00:34:01,667 --> 00:34:02,900
Gonna want a little flour
on there.
886
00:34:02,967 --> 00:34:04,467
Fried and pickled.
887
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:06,400
[Crista] Jeff's got onions.
888
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,367
So he can pickle it,
he can fry it,
that's two layers!
889
00:34:10,100 --> 00:34:11,533
-Cross-utilized.
-Yes.
890
00:34:11,533 --> 00:34:14,266
What can you cross utilize
and how can you make it
taste delicious.
891
00:34:14,266 --> 00:34:16,500
I think this
is great gameplay.
892
00:34:16,567 --> 00:34:18,400
[Guy] Okay, what's going
on with the bread.
You're gonna treat that bread?
893
00:34:18,467 --> 00:34:19,367
It's supposed
to be decorative,
894
00:34:19,367 --> 00:34:20,367
it's supposed to be layered.
895
00:34:20,367 --> 00:34:21,266
You bet.
896
00:34:21,266 --> 00:34:24,000
When Guy talks, you listen.
897
00:34:25,300 --> 00:34:27,033
I take Dutch Crunch rolls,
898
00:34:27,033 --> 00:34:30,867
and slice 'em regularly
and then others I slice
to make extra middles.
899
00:34:30,867 --> 00:34:32,400
Easy to stack.
900
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:36,667
Three and a half minutes,
chefs, three and a half.
901
00:34:38,667 --> 00:34:40,767
[Christian] It is time
to build.
902
00:34:40,767 --> 00:34:42,767
Start with a healthy,
903
00:34:42,767 --> 00:34:45,767
healthy schmear
of this avocado mayo,
904
00:34:45,767 --> 00:34:48,400
and then a good amount
of bacon on top.
905
00:34:48,467 --> 00:34:52,867
I throw a handful
of those salty,
vinegar-y chips.
906
00:34:52,867 --> 00:34:55,166
And that is my first layer.
907
00:34:55,166 --> 00:34:56,967
Second floor, please.
908
00:34:56,967 --> 00:34:59,667
I put another piece
of Texas Toast
on top of that.
909
00:34:59,667 --> 00:35:03,967
And another schmear
of avocado mayo,
another handful of bacon,
910
00:35:03,967 --> 00:35:08,166
and now it's time
for the old gilding
of the lily.
911
00:35:08,166 --> 00:35:10,567
Time to take
that bitter mac and cheese.
912
00:35:10,567 --> 00:35:12,667
So this thing just
gets taller and taller.
913
00:35:12,667 --> 00:35:14,867
I'd go and grab
a step ladder
at this point.
914
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,667
Always wanted to do this.
915
00:35:17,667 --> 00:35:20,967
I just love to see
this mile high "sangwich"
916
00:35:20,967 --> 00:35:23,000
with the steak knife
inside of it.
917
00:35:24,166 --> 00:35:26,900
[Guy] 1 minute
and 30 seconds left.
918
00:35:26,967 --> 00:35:29,100
Jeff, you better start
building some
sandwiches, homie.
919
00:35:29,166 --> 00:35:30,634
I am on it.
920
00:35:30,634 --> 00:35:31,867
So I start plating.
Get the bottom bread
on the plate.
921
00:35:31,867 --> 00:35:34,767
Then I put my jerky spread
on next.
922
00:35:34,767 --> 00:35:36,100
Then pickled onions,
923
00:35:36,100 --> 00:35:39,500
smoked turkey,
then fried onions,
then bread on top.
924
00:35:39,567 --> 00:35:40,567
[Guy] Five seconds, chef.
925
00:35:40,567 --> 00:35:44,867
[yells] Five. Four.
Three. Two. One.
926
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:46,433
Chef, that's it.
927
00:35:46,433 --> 00:35:48,066
[Jeff] Time's up
and then it hits me.
928
00:35:48,066 --> 00:35:49,266
I forgot to use the onion dip.
929
00:35:51,100 --> 00:35:53,100
[Guy] There we go,
great job. Great final battle!
930
00:35:53,100 --> 00:35:55,367
-[Hunter] My gosh.
-[Crista] Nice job.
Oi [whistles]
931
00:36:04,767 --> 00:36:05,867
All right, this is it.
932
00:36:05,867 --> 00:36:09,000
Game two of
"Beat the Judges' Sandwiches."
933
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,600
We ended up with a classic
east coast, west coast
sandwich showdown.
934
00:36:12,667 --> 00:36:16,967
And I thought for sure
it would be pastrami on rye
versus avocado toast,
935
00:36:16,967 --> 00:36:18,400
but no!
936
00:36:18,467 --> 00:36:20,767
Nope the big New York
guy grabbed the avocado.
937
00:36:20,767 --> 00:36:24,100
What is today's world
coming to?
938
00:36:24,100 --> 00:36:26,467
Chefs had to play
"One ingredient Per Aisle".
939
00:36:26,467 --> 00:36:30,900
I asked them to make
a mile high sandwich
using exactly 10 items,
940
00:36:30,967 --> 00:36:34,100
that they pulled
from all 10 shelves
of all 10 aisles.
941
00:36:34,166 --> 00:36:36,266
Chef Petroni up first.
942
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:38,266
What did you make for us?
943
00:36:38,266 --> 00:36:41,000
We call this
the "Gluttonious Hambonious."
944
00:36:41,066 --> 00:36:43,467
This is something
that I really want to eat
945
00:36:43,467 --> 00:36:45,300
at like 1 o'clock
in the morning.
946
00:36:45,367 --> 00:36:49,867
And when I heard sky high,
mile high, piled high,
947
00:36:49,867 --> 00:36:53,166
I went for the Texas Toast
because it's so thick.
948
00:36:53,166 --> 00:36:55,800
Then I took bacon,
and some chilis.
949
00:36:55,867 --> 00:36:58,767
You got the creaminess
from not only the avocado,
950
00:36:58,767 --> 00:37:00,567
but I took some of that
really good mayonnaise,
951
00:37:00,567 --> 00:37:05,066
made of fortified spread mayo,
and that goes on every layer.
952
00:37:05,066 --> 00:37:07,567
And then the bitter
mac and cheese sauce.
953
00:37:15,066 --> 00:37:16,266
Ridiculous.
954
00:37:16,767 --> 00:37:18,567
Ridiculously good, chef.
955
00:37:18,567 --> 00:37:20,266
Plating? I love it.
956
00:37:20,266 --> 00:37:23,867
I love that, you know,
the... the mac and cheese
is kinda spilling out.
957
00:37:23,867 --> 00:37:26,700
Like, you know it's gonna
be messy, just by lookin'
at it,
958
00:37:26,767 --> 00:37:28,367
and that's how
I love a sandwich.
959
00:37:28,367 --> 00:37:31,200
This is like a three napkin
sandwich for me.
960
00:37:31,266 --> 00:37:33,667
I could even use
a little bit more heat
from those chilis.
961
00:37:33,667 --> 00:37:35,700
But every little
layer you built?
962
00:37:35,767 --> 00:37:36,800
Yeah.
963
00:37:37,467 --> 00:37:38,567
Coming from you? An honor.
964
00:37:38,567 --> 00:37:40,667
The flavors are fantastic.
965
00:37:40,667 --> 00:37:43,100
The one thing that I am
missing on this
966
00:37:43,100 --> 00:37:46,767
is a crunchy, fresh component.
967
00:37:46,767 --> 00:37:52,066
Right? Instead of avocado
if there was fennel pickled,
or there was onion pickled,
968
00:37:52,066 --> 00:37:56,100
I think that would
have just made this
a complete sandwich.
969
00:37:56,100 --> 00:37:57,266
Timmy?
970
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:00,166
-Hey, young Tim.
-Hey, babe.
971
00:38:00,166 --> 00:38:01,767
[Guy laughing]
972
00:38:01,767 --> 00:38:04,600
I gotta tell ya
this reminds me
of my college days.
973
00:38:04,667 --> 00:38:06,567
You know exactly
what I'm talking about.
974
00:38:06,567 --> 00:38:07,700
I didn't go to college.
975
00:38:07,767 --> 00:38:09,066
[judges laughing]
976
00:38:09,066 --> 00:38:11,467
No, but you... you know
about the night
I'm talking about.
977
00:38:11,467 --> 00:38:13,367
I think that you have
a lot of rich flavor.
978
00:38:13,367 --> 00:38:15,667
That avocado mayo
that you have on there...
979
00:38:15,667 --> 00:38:17,200
...just soothes it all out.
980
00:38:17,266 --> 00:38:19,066
I'm not a fan
of the bitter mac and cheese,
981
00:38:19,066 --> 00:38:21,767
it's just, like, it's
IPA is too much for me.
982
00:38:21,767 --> 00:38:23,400
-[Guy] Nicely done,
thank you very much.
-[mouthing] I love you.
983
00:38:23,467 --> 00:38:25,900
Not to be outdone,
Chef Jeff, what do you
have for us?
984
00:38:25,967 --> 00:38:27,700
From the same point
of inspiration,
985
00:38:27,767 --> 00:38:29,800
which is if you
gotta do a mile high sandwich
986
00:38:29,867 --> 00:38:31,567
you gotta be thinking
about what you would eat
late night.
987
00:38:31,567 --> 00:38:37,500
So I made for you
a double turkey, double decker
mile high sandwich,
988
00:38:37,567 --> 00:38:42,567
I made a deviled turkey salad,
with pork rinds and mayo
989
00:38:42,567 --> 00:38:46,300
and tahini and chili
to really bring out
as much umami
990
00:38:46,367 --> 00:38:48,000
because I didn't have
cheese to use in there.
991
00:38:48,066 --> 00:38:51,600
And then you got the onions
two different ways.
992
00:38:51,667 --> 00:38:53,000
Pickled, a little brightness,
993
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,667
and the crispy onions
that I didn't get on
in the last round.
994
00:39:01,300 --> 00:39:03,567
Like, just the smells
coming off this plate,
995
00:39:03,567 --> 00:39:06,066
when it got sat
in front of me,
was like "Wow!"
996
00:39:06,066 --> 00:39:10,467
Like, I can... I can smell,
like, the depths of nuance
going on in here.
997
00:39:10,467 --> 00:39:14,000
That situation on the bottom
that you did with the bitters
and the jerky?
998
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,166
Like, I was a huge sceptic.
999
00:39:16,166 --> 00:39:17,533
It's delicious.
1000
00:39:17,533 --> 00:39:21,000
I was actually genuinely
impressed on the creativity
you had
1001
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:22,800
of grabbing the ingredients
you did.
1002
00:39:22,867 --> 00:39:24,367
We were all like...
1003
00:39:24,367 --> 00:39:27,467
..."What's he gonna do
with jerky and bitters
and tahini?"
1004
00:39:27,467 --> 00:39:31,000
It actually is quite delicious
and I might have to try
it myself.
1005
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,367
The Dutch Crunch
was a great move.
1006
00:39:33,367 --> 00:39:35,166
It's a great bread,
I would have chosen
that as well.
1007
00:39:35,166 --> 00:39:39,066
Were you able
to use all the ingredients
from all the aisles?
1008
00:39:39,066 --> 00:39:41,567
I left one on the counter.
1009
00:39:41,567 --> 00:39:43,000
Where did that come from?
What aisle?
1010
00:39:43,066 --> 00:39:44,100
-Five, I think.
-[Guy] Okay.
1011
00:39:44,100 --> 00:39:45,133
-[Jeff] Yeah.
-[Guy] Gotcha, gotcha.
1012
00:39:45,133 --> 00:39:46,667
I wish you had put
that seasoning pack in there.
1013
00:39:46,667 --> 00:39:48,367
That would've been pretty
crucial,
1014
00:39:48,367 --> 00:39:51,100
I think it coulda helped
you in building another layer
to this.
1015
00:39:51,166 --> 00:39:55,066
I love the different flavors
that are going on over here.
1016
00:39:55,066 --> 00:39:59,500
Deep fried onions, fantastic,
I'm glad that you added that.
1017
00:39:59,567 --> 00:40:03,500
And the pickled onions,
it does add the brightness
and freshness to it.
1018
00:40:03,567 --> 00:40:04,767
Delicious!
1019
00:40:04,767 --> 00:40:06,200
Thank you.
1020
00:40:06,266 --> 00:40:08,166
Chefs, thank you very much,
great battle.
1021
00:40:08,166 --> 00:40:09,867
[stutters] One of...
Hands down
1022
00:40:09,867 --> 00:40:13,100
one of the most difficult
battles that you have
is "One Item Per Aisle"
1023
00:40:13,166 --> 00:40:14,667
and then to make a sandwich...
1024
00:40:15,867 --> 00:40:17,567
I don't know.
1025
00:40:17,567 --> 00:40:20,200
All the stuff that you want
to make a sandwich with
are in aisle 1 and aisle 10.
1026
00:40:20,266 --> 00:40:23,100
Chefs back to the kitchens,
we'll call you when we have
a decision. Thank you.
1027
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,000
Who's mile high sandwich
is worth a pile high of cash?
1028
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,000
Just remember,
we have 20 points
available in gameplay,
1029
00:40:32,066 --> 00:40:36,567
20 points available in taste,
and 10 points for plating,
for a possible of 50 points.
1030
00:40:40,867 --> 00:40:44,367
I will tell you what
that was one fantastic battle.
1031
00:40:44,367 --> 00:40:46,266
Let's take a look
at the scores, gentleman.
1032
00:40:46,266 --> 00:40:49,000
It's a one and done.
Someone gets 10,000 bucks.
1033
00:40:49,066 --> 00:40:51,066
Gameplay, Jeff, 16...
1034
00:40:51,767 --> 00:40:52,900
...17 in taste...
1035
00:40:54,300 --> 00:40:57,567
...Plating for 7
for a 40. Wow.
1036
00:40:57,567 --> 00:41:00,467
I thought they were gonna
beat you up worse for missing
that ingredient.
1037
00:41:01,066 --> 00:41:02,100
I'm impressed.
1038
00:41:02,667 --> 00:41:03,667
Petroni.
1039
00:41:05,100 --> 00:41:06,667
Gameplay, 17...
1040
00:41:07,300 --> 00:41:08,467
...taste, 18...
1041
00:41:10,266 --> 00:41:11,667
...plating an 8. 43.
1042
00:41:11,667 --> 00:41:13,367
Congratulations, Petroni wins.
1043
00:41:14,467 --> 00:41:15,467
Uh, congratulations,
Christian.
1044
00:41:15,467 --> 00:41:16,567
-Good job.
-Whoo-hoo!
1045
00:41:16,567 --> 00:41:18,667
I'm gonna tell you,
you're a mad genius, man.
1046
00:41:18,667 --> 00:41:20,500
-And I'll look forward
to seeing you again.
-That would be an honor.
1047
00:41:20,567 --> 00:41:22,000
-[Guy] All right, Jeff,
very nice to meet you.
-Thank you.
1048
00:41:22,066 --> 00:41:23,333
[Guy] Thank you so much.
1049
00:41:23,333 --> 00:41:25,166
[Jeff] I feel super lucky
to have gotten this chance.
1050
00:41:25,166 --> 00:41:28,667
And I'm still going home
with $10,000 for my workers
and for Polo's Pantry.
1051
00:41:31,100 --> 00:41:32,600
Ladies and gentleman,
meet the winner
1052
00:41:32,667 --> 00:41:34,500
of "Beat the Judges'
Sandwich",
1053
00:41:34,567 --> 00:41:37,100
the one and only,
the great Hambino!
1054
00:41:37,100 --> 00:41:40,266
-[judges cheering]
-[Guy] Congratulations, chef,
congratulations.
1055
00:41:40,266 --> 00:41:44,400
This is actually my first
time winning
in Flavortown Market,
1056
00:41:44,467 --> 00:41:46,300
and it could not be sweeter.
1057
00:41:46,367 --> 00:41:47,767
So there you go, folks.
1058
00:41:47,767 --> 00:41:50,867
That just proves
that he doesn't just talk
a great sandwich game,
1059
00:41:50,867 --> 00:41:54,400
he proved it and he's won
10,000 bucks in the process.
1060
00:41:54,467 --> 00:41:56,266
Congratulations
to the great Hambino.
1061
00:41:56,266 --> 00:41:57,800
And we will see
you all next week!
on Guy's Grocery Games.
