In the eighth episode of the second season of Kids BBQ Championship, the young chefs head to the boardwalk to whip up some seaside bites. The contestants are challenged to create dishes inspired by classic boardwalk foods, such as funnel cakes, cotton candy, and corn dogs.
The episode kicks off with a flashback to when the contestants were kids enjoying the boardwalk themselves. They then meet the judges, Eddie Jackson and Camila Alves, who introduce the challenge and explain that the winner will receive an advantage in the next round.
The first challenge is to create a savory dish inspired by one of the boardwalk classics. The young chefs get to work, using ingredients such as crab, lobster, and shrimp to create twists on corn dogs, skewers, and sliders. Eddie and Camila taste each dish and give their feedback, ultimately deciding on the top three contestants who will move on to the next round.
The second challenge has the remaining contestants creating sweet treats inspired by boardwalk favorites. They have to use a mystery ingredient, which turns out to be cotton candy. The young chefs work quickly to incorporate the cotton candy into their desserts, using it as a topping, as a flavoring, and even infusing it into their ice cream bases.
As time ticks down, the contestants become nervous as they present their dishes to the judges. Eddie and Camila taste each dessert and give their critiques, finally deciding on the winner of the episode.
Overall, the episode is full of fun and excitement as the young chefs take on the challenge of creating boardwalk-inspired dishes. The judges are impressed by their creativity and skill, and the contestants prove that they have what it takes to make it in the culinary world.
