Ready, Set, Take Aim — Alton's Camp Cutthroat After-Show

Wild, unpredictable and downright diabolical, the sabotages that host Alton Brown is set to unleash upon the Camp Cutthroat 2 chefs are surely going to be some of his most evilicious ever. In tonight's premiere, we saw just how challenging they would be — for both the competitors and the judge.
Chef Kate, who managed to earn Heat 1 glory and a spot in the finale, was forced to abandon her basket ingredients for meat and potatoes, and instead she had to use what Alton called a "potato gun" to shoot for subpar replacements in Round 2. Come the After-Show, Jet Tila was prepared to take aim with the same rifle, but unfortunately for the judge, he had to wear an unwieldly suit of sticks and moss; Alton said he hoped to "level the playing field a little bit," noting Jet's superior shooting skills. "You're a much better marksman than I am," Alton admitted. However, that's not quite what happened when the guys took aim, Jet clad in his camo getup.
With a single shot, Alton catapulted a potato into the "potato peels" sign, and the host was immediately pleased with his performance. "I just want to stand here and bask in the glory for a moment. Basking. Basking," he joked. For Jet, though, the task proved to be trickier. "Six feet low. Let's go again," Alton said, encouraging Jet after the judge landed a potato in the water instead of through the sign. After a few more shots, Jet still couldn't manage to hit a target, and he admitted defeat: "I give up. I'm shamed."
