Katie Lee heads to Tybee Island, Georgia, a barrier island just 18 miles southeast of culinary mecca Savannah. The small island is full of big flavors, and Katie starts her exploration with perfectly sweet local shrimp and a spicy blackened fish hoagie at a restaurant so beloved that the locals rallied to keep it open. She's introduced to "hog wings," a local version of hot wings that trade the chicken for pork, and she dives into the local specialty, oysters, that are so nice, she tries them twice -- roasted and baked with collards and bacon. Katie finishes off her visit with ice cream cookie sandwiches and deep-fried strawberries that represent what the South is all about.
And at Lumpy's Diner in Antioch, CA, Tom hits up a retro diner for a 12-egg omelet as large as a football, and "The Intimidator" – a 16-inch pizza round piled 8-inches high with hashbrowns, eggs, cheese, meats, biscuits, and smothered in gravy. Then Tom heads to The Flying Monkey in Philadelphia, PA, where an apple pie and a pumpkin pie are literally baked inside a chocolate cake, the turducken of the pastry world. Finally, Tom stops by CK's Wings-N-Things in Johnstown, PA, for chicken wings done a thousand ways with a variety of hot sauces- the spiciest, "Nuclear Hell", reaching 6,000,000 Scoville units.
Alex is making a special birthday dinner for a really good friend. She wants to food to be simple, but filled with flavor. So, she's taking something she eats all the time at home and dresses it up in an evening gown so that it can come to the party too. For her, that's a chicken. A tangy marinated chicken marsala, coasted in breadcrumbs and butter, then baked crispy in the oven. To go with the chicken, a beet pasta tossed with a bright vinaigrette and colorful scallions. So tasty and beautiful. For dessert, Alex bakes a bright lemon cake and coats it in gloppy chocolate frosting.
Guy Fieri prepares a stadium-sized spread for gametime fans. His friend Aarti Sequeira lends an extra hand as Guy makes Stuffed Pupusas, filled with black beans, chorizo and cheese; crunchy Curtido Slaw is a traditional and tangy counterpoint.

Finally, a fresh and tangy Orange Sling cuts the heat and quenches your thirst. In It To Win It Stuffed Pupusas; Curtido Slaw; Ain't No Thing Butta Chicken Wing; Orange Sling.

Why did the chicken cross the road? Probably to escape Alton Brown, who seems intent on defining the perfect broiled chicken that's out of the oven and bathed in sauce in under half an hour.
