No one takes "meats on the bone" more seriously than Rahm Fama, and in this episode he's hunting down the best of the best. First up, Rahm heads to Las Vegas, where it's "go big or go home" at Hank's Steakhouse in Green Valley Ranch. There, the steak-obsessed chef is grilling up a super size, 45-ounce Tomahawk steak. Then it's on to Bean Town where BBQ and soul music take center stage at Soul Fire BBQ. Here Rahm sinks his teeth into some of Boston's best baby back ribs. Finally, the "meat man" lands in Miami, on the trail of more mouth-watering, meats on the bone. His destination is Michy's where Rahm "meats" up with James Beard award winning chef Michelle Bernstein to find out the secret of her succulent beefy, short ribs.
Guy Fieri searches out some neighborhood favs including the St. Louis tavern cranking out authentic international dishes like home made German spaetzle; the Virginia café where calzones are a taste of New York; BBQ at what looks like a New Jersey diner, in Arizona; and the Philadelphia area diner that's so local the regulars have their own coffee cups to help wash down the scrapple.
Guy Fieri is reliving his most meat-tastic memories, starting in Kansas City, Mo., at an award-winning BBQ joint serving up pork belly burnt ends. Then, a taqueria in Dallas is still flipping the script on Tex-Mex and bringing real deal Mex-Tex to the masses. And a sub shop is winning over Washington, D.C., with their huge hoagies and homemade everything.
