Trisha Yearwood and her sister, Beth, are exploring some family history and recipes that go beyond their Southern heritage. The sisters cook their own versions of traditional English, Irish and Scottish recipes while reminiscing about their trip to England and the cool things they learned about their ancestors. Their menu, which has a Southern spin, includes Savory Cheddar, Tomato and Herb Popovers, Cast Iron Roast Beef with Veggies and Sauce, Braised Red Cabbage, Apples and Bacon and, finally, Homemade Raspberry Shortcake.
Geoffrey Zakarian starts off with his Grilled Lobster and Shrimp Tacos, then Marcela Valladolid and Jeff Mauro show different ways to make summer favorites last all year round.

Later, the gang demonstrates how to preserve herbs and tries out the summer's trendiest beers.
Paying respect to his Italian roots, Michael Symon creates an entire Italian feast over coals using his outdoor grill, beginning with smoking fresh tomatoes for his Fettuccine with Smoked Tomato Sauce. His wife, Liz, mixes up creamy ricotta, lemon and herbs for Stuffed Squash Blossoms from their garden and fries them over the grill. For dessert, a decadent Lemon Upside-Down Cake is a sweet way to finish off the meal.
