World-renowned Chef Jet Tila helps Tyler Florence challenge the five teams to make dishes that reflect their culinary origin stories -- and his favorite gets a reward! The pro versus rookie rivalry intensifies with catastrophic consequences for one team in particular. The rookies make huge strides, and in a shocking elimination, one of the top-ranked teams tumbles to the bottom two.
David vs. Goliath: Family Food
Last season's grand prize winner Evanice Holz from Señoreata Food Truck challenges the four remaining teams to turn their family recipes into plant-based creations to sell at Smorgasburg, an epic Los Angeles food event. After pairing the teams up to sell as two units, Tyler Florence offers his own family favorites as inspiration. Then, a tearful elimination sends a much-loved team home empty-handed.
David vs. Goliath: Need for Speed
With a key team member out sick, one food truck is forced to operate as a two-person unit, placing them at a severe disadvantage. Culinary powerhouse Chef Joe Sasto joins Tyler Florence to challenge the final three teams to a taste and speed challenge. On day two, the competitors work beside some of Los Angeles' best food trucks for a nighttime rally in Venice Beach, where they'll meet Daniel Shemtob, head chef of two-time Race winner Lime Truck.
David vs. Goliath: Final Showdown
With two trucks left to fight in the finale, each team steals one dish from the other's menu and crafts their own versions to sell at the Regarding Her Food Festival. Tyler Florence surprises them with a high-stakes rapid fire challenge judged by three renowned Los Angeles chefs, and he allows them to only sell one all-in entrée all day. Both teams scrap for their last sales, hoping to claim the grand prize of $50,000!
About the Show
The Great Food Truck Race is headed to the Wild West, where host Tyler Florence welcomes seven teams of brand new food truck operators as they embark on the adventure of a lifetime. Just like the pioneers, they'll be using some of the West's most distinct ingredients in challenges that test their culinary skills. Each week, they'll race across the desert landscape to a new town where they'll face new challenges, cook incredible dishes and, as always, try to outsell the competition. The team that earns the least will have to walk away from the wagon trail, but the two teams that have the grit make it to the end will square off for the $50,000 prize.
