In season 19 episode 19 of Guy's Grocery Games, titled GGG Iron Chef Challenge, the contestants are in for a high stakes battle as they compete head-to-head in a culinary competition inspired by the famed Iron Chef America series.
Host Guy Fieri introduces the contestants to three legendary Iron Chefs - Alex Guarnaschelli, Marc Forgione, and Geoffrey Zakarian - all of whom will be gauging the contestant's cooking skills and choosing the winner of each round. The competition is divided into three rounds: appetizers, entrees, and desserts.
For the first round, each contestant is given 30 minutes to create an impressive appetizer using a selection of mystery ingredients from Guy's iconic grocery store. The contestants have to get creative to impress the Iron Chefs, utilizing their culinary expertise to transform the ingredients into a delectable dish that will stand out on the plate. The Iron Chefs meticulously taste each dish, evaluating the taste, creativity, and presentation, and choose the winner who will proceed to the next round.
The second round challenges the contestants to create an enticing entree using a new set of assertive ingredients and spices. Here, the contestants have to utilize their cooking skills to create a dish that not only tastes great but also looks visually appealing. The chefs who fail to impress the Iron Chefs in this round are eliminated, leaving only the most talented of the bunch to fight it out in the final round.
For the dessert round, the remaining chefs are tasked with creating a mouth-watering sweet dish using secret ingredients that they may not have encountered before. It's every chef for themselves in this final showdown, and only the dishes that wow the Iron Chef judges will progress to the final taste off.
In the final taste-off, the two remaining contestants are given a chance to win the ultimate prize - $20,000 and the coveted title of "GGG Iron Chef." The two chefs have one hour to create their best dish yet, using all of the skills and techniques they have gathered during the previous rounds.
