Guy Fieri challenges his talented chef friends to take a burger beyond the basic patty and bun. Antonia Lofaso combines sirloin and brisket with braised oxtail for an intensely meaty burger and whips orange juice for a crisp Garibaldi cocktail. Carl Ruiz brings a taste of Caribbean to the ranch with a Frita Cubano, a chorizo and beef burger topped with crispy mini fries. Inspired by the burgers of Santa Fe, N.M., Aaron May makes a crunchy but juicy tortilla-wrapped green chile burger. To wash it down, he mixes up a peppermint ice cream apple pie shake. Finally, Justin Warner pushes burger boundaries with a feta cheese sauce-covered kofta burger and a unique but delicious cheeseburger egg roll.
Guy Fieri is having his chef friends over to the ranch for a 5-star weekend brunch. Alex Guarnaschelli prepares sinful Deviled Eggs with Bacon and Hot Sauce and bakes flaky Biscuits with Apple Crisp Jam, plus she makes a pitcher of Greyhound cocktails. Justin Warner puts a breakfast twist on a Korean rice dish with Brunch Bi Bim Bap and makes a booze-filled Pancake Napoleon with Berries and Tarragon Whip. Marc Murphy uses seared sweet potato slices to take the bread out of Avocado Toast, and he makes an authentically delicious French Toast filled with sweet custard. Finally, Eric Greenspan serves up both savory Smoked Salmon Rillettes with Rye Toasts, Scallion Whipped Cream Cheese and Marinated Veggies, and a creamy Greek Yogurt Parfait with Ginger Candied Pumpkin, Berries and Pumpkin Seed Pecan Granola.
