The teams roll into Fayetteville, AR, a college town filled with teenagers.
PREVIOUSLY ON
“THE GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE”...
EIGHT TEAMS
OF FOOD TRUCK ROOKIES
AND THEIR DREAM TRUCKS...
BEGAN THE THIRD
GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE...
BEGAN THE THIRD
GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE...
IN LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA.
LOS ANGELES, HERE WE COME!
HELLO, BUSINESS.
THE TEAMS SOLD FURIOUSLY
IN LOS ANGELES...
TASTE OF ALASKA
RIGHT HERE IN HOLLYWOOD!
FLAGSTAFF, ARIZONA... IT'S $5.
AND AMARILLO, TEXAS...
WE'RE OPEN DOWN HERE!
HOT WINGS!
BUT THE KOREAN SEOUL SAUSAGE
TRUCKEMERGED VICTORIOUS...
SEOUL SAUSAGE.
SEOUL SAUSAGE.
SEOUL SAUSAGE.
ALL THREE TIMES.
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE
AND MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB
HAVE FOUGHT TOOTH AND NAIL
TO KEEP PACE...
I NEED 20 GRILLED CHEESE.
BUT THEY FOUGHT EVEN HARDER
WITH ONE ANOTHER.
SHE APPROACHES ME, HER HEAD'S
GONNA BE IN THE CEMENT.
WE'RE ALMOST DONE
WITH CHICKEN.
POP‐A‐WAFFLE CHEF ANTHONY
HAS KEPT HIS TEAM ALIVE
WITH PURE COOKING SKILL...
IT HAD A REAL, REAL
TRUE BALANCE OF FLAVOR.
WHILE THE THREE SEAFOOD CHEFS
OF COAST OF ATLANTA
HAVE BARELY MANAGED
TO STAY AFLOAT.
FRIED CATFISH.
NOW THE RACE COMES HERE‐‐
FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS.
FIVE TRUCKS REMAIN
BUT NOT FOR LONG.

I THINK FAYETTEVILLE
ISN'T AS LARGE OF A TOWN
AS AMARILLO WAS.
WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO PAY
EXTRA ATTENTION, I THINK,
TO OUR CUSTOMER SERVICE.
THAT WAS DEFINITELY
A KEY FOR US IN AMARILLO.
PEOPLE THOUGHT
WE WERE FUN AND WACKY,
AND THEY LOVED OUR FOOD.
THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I ENVISIONED
MY FOOD TRUCK DREAMS
TO COME TRUE.
WE'RE TIRED. WE'RE EXHAUSTED.
BUT IT'S THE BEST KIND
OF EXHAUSTED YOU CAN BE.
IT'S A NEW CITY. IT'S A NEW DAY.
WE'RE READY TO ROCK IT.
LAST WEEK WAS
REALLY, REALLY CLOSE, MAN.
WE ABSOLUTELY CANNOT
BE IN THE BOTTOM TWO
THIS WEEK.
WE CAME INTO THIS GAME
BEING COMPLETE NOVICES
WHEN IT COMES TO FOOD TRUCKS.
BUT AFTER THIS EXPERIENCE,
I KNOW 100% THAT SIMPLICITY
IN YOUR MENU IS A BIG THING.
I THINK WE DID PRETTY WELL
WITH OUR FISH BASKET LAST WEEK
SO I THINK WE SHOULD PROBABLY
STAY ON THE SAME TRACK.
THE MENU‐‐
WHAT DO YOU THINK, DUDE?
THEY LOVE
THEIR RAZORBACKS,
SO MAYBE WE SHOULD DO
A RAZORBACK SPECIAL.
WE'LL CALL IT
THE RAZORBACK BURGER...
THE RAZORBACK?
KOREAN BARBECUE‐INSPIRED
HAMBURGER.
I WANT TO WIN THIS FOOD TRUCK.
I WANT TO WIN THIS $50,000.
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY,
I WANT TO DO IT FOR MY PARENTS.
I CAN BE THE POOREST MAN
IN THE WORLD,
THE RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD.
IT DOESN'T MATTER
AS LONG AS THEY'RE PROUD OF ME.
I THINK WE SHOULD KEEP
THE BURGER AT $7
AND JUST RAISE
THE BALLS.
2 FOR $8, PERFECT.
HEY, LIS, LOOK. IT'S LIKE HOME.
THERE'S TREES.
IT'S NOT
THE DESERT ANYMORE.
EVERY SINGLE WEEK THIS
COMPETITION BECOMES MORE REAL,
AND I THINK EVERY TEAM
WANTS IT MORE,
BUT BEING THREE ITALIAN GIRLS
FROM NEW JERSEY
WITH LESS EXPERIENCE
THAN ANY OF THESE TEAMS,
WE'VE NEVER WANTED SOMETHING
SO BAD.
WE CAN DO
THE QUICK‐AND‐EASY THING.
WE CAN DO
PESTO CHICKEN QUESADILLA.
YEAH, A PESTO CHICKEN
QUESADILLA,
AND THAT WOULD BE
QUICK AND EASY.
SO MEATBALLS, QUESADILLAS,
DOUGHNUTS, AND ROOT BEER FLOATS.
DO YOU THINK THE TACOS
ARE GONNA GO OVER AS WELL HERE?
I MEAN, WE'RE NOT
IN TEXAS ANYMORE.
YEAH, BUT WE'RE IN
A COLLEGE TOWN.
YEAH.
WHAT COLLEGE KIDS
DON'T LIKE TACOS?
THIS WHOLE PROCESS
HAS BEEN MORE CHALLENGING
THAN WHAT WE EXPECTED.
IN ALASKA, THERE'S ONLY
SO MANY PLACES TO GO,
AND IT'S VERY STRAIGHTFORWARD.
THE COOKING PORTION
AND SELLING TO PEOPLE
WHEN THEY WALK UP TO THE WINDOW,
THAT'S THE EASY PART.
ARE WE GONNA DO ANYTHING NEW
ON THE MENU?
I MEAN, I DON'T THINK
WE CAN JUST DO TACOS.
I COULD DO
A TERIYAKI ONE ALSO...
YEAH.
IF WE WANT TO HAVE
A LITTLE BIT MORE VARIETY.
GUYS, WELCOME TO
FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS!
YES!
GUYS, YOU ARE MORE THAN HALFWAY
ACROSS THE COUNTRY
AND ONE STEP CLOSER TO WINNING
YOUR VERY OWN FOOD TRUCK
AND $50,000.
YES! WHOO‐HOO!
WHOO!
I COULDN'T BE MORE PROUD OF YOU
RIGHT NOW.
THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THE FIVE
TEAMS STANDING IN FRONT OF ME
ARE LEGITIMATE CONTENDERS
IN THE GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE.
THERE'S FIVE TEAMS LEFT
IN THIS RACE.
IT'S VERY, VERY INTENSE.
WE'VE BEEN HAVING ORGANIZATION
ISSUES FROM THE BEGINNING.
IF WE CAN'T GET THAT
FIGURED OUT,
WE'RE GOING HOME.
IN SOME PLACES,
A LOVELY DOWNTOWN
OR AN HISTORIC LANDMARK
WILL GIVE A CITY AN IDENTITY.
IN FAYETTEVILLE,
IT'S THIS BUILDING.
GUYS, YOU ARE NOW
ON THE PLAYING FIELD
AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS'
RAZORBACK STADIUM.
MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT.
YOU ARE IN A COLLEGE TOWN.
THAT MEANS YOU ALL
HAVE TO PLAN ACCORDINGLY.
YOUR PRICES, YOUR MENU,
AND YOUR STRATEGY
NEED TO REFLECT
WHERE YOU ARE.
THERE'S A LOT OF HUNGRY FOLKS
IN THIS TOWN.
WE KNOW THAT WE CAN ATTRACT ‘EM.
WE KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK
IN AMARILLO
WITH CHICKEN AND WAFFLES.
THAT IS A HOME RUN
AND A TOUCHDOWN
AND ALL THE ABOVE.
AND I'M SURE I DON'T HAVE
TO REMIND YOU,
BUT ONE OF YOU WILL BE MAKING
THE LONG, LONELY TRIP HOME
AT THE END OF THE WEEKEND.
SO, GUYS, WE'RE JUST GONNA
GET DOWN TO IT.
HOW MUCH SEED MONEY DO YOU THINK
YOU'RE GETTING THIS WEEK?
IT'S $300.
$300 IS NOT A TON OF MONEY,
BUT I THINK IT'S ENOUGH.
WE'RE IN A SMALL TOWN.
I WANT TO KEEP MY PRICES LOW.
SO I THINK THAT WE CAN DO REALLY
WELL WITH IT IN THIS CITY.
AND REMEMBER, GUYS,
IT'S A COLLEGE TOWN.
EVERYBODY HERE IS ON A BUDGET.
SO WHY NOT YOU?
OH, AND ONE MORE THING,
I'VE GOT AN EPIC
TRUCK STOP COOKING CHALLENGE
IN STORE FOR YOU
AND A SPEED BUMP
THAT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND,
SO I'M ADDING 24 HOURS
TO THE WEEKEND.
YOU’LL UNDERSTAND WHY
WHEN THE TIME COMES.
HEY, I TOLD YOU THE RACE
WAS GONNA GET MORE INTENSE.
WELCOME TO THE TOP FIVE.
IF YOU'RE GONNA MOVE ON,
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO EARN IT.
ALL RIGHT, FAYETTEVILLE'S
OUT THERE WAITING.
LET'S GET ROLLING!
GUYS, WE'RE PROBABLY
GONNA FIND CHICKEN FIRST.
- IT'S RIGHT HERE.
- CHICKEN'S RIGHT HERE.
IT'S BEEN A WINNING COMBINATION
TO DO A PROTEIN WAFFLE
WITH EITHER A FAJITA WAFFLE
OR THE CHICKEN WAFFLE,
AND OF COURSE, EVERYONE LOVES
A GOOD CLASSIC WAFFLE
WITH FRUIT.
$16.
ALL RIGHT, WHERE'S THE FISH?
TILAPIA.
WE DECIDED TO GO
WITH TILAPIA THIS WEEK
INSTEAD OF THE CATFISH,
BECAUSE CATFISH
IS JUST WAY TOO EXPENSIVE.
GET OUR LOGS OF BEEF.
I'M GONNA GO PLACE
THE ORDER FOR THE DOUGH,
AND I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
MAKE SURE
IT'S THE BALLS.
NO GROUND PORK?
NO GROUND CHICKEN?
NO. NO.
BUT THEN THEY HAVE
TURKEY, YES?
YEP.
SO WE'RE GONNA DO
THE ROTISSERIE CHICKEN
INSTEAD OF
COOKING OUR CHICKEN?
YES. PREP TIME
WILL BE LESS.
GOOD LUCK, LADIES.
THANKS.
WE'VE GOT, WHAT, $12 LEFT OUT
OF $300? SOMETHING LIKE THAT?
SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
NOT MUCH.
NOT LEAVING A BUFFER
AND SPENDING ALL THAT MONEY
ON CHICKEN, I DON'T KNOW
IF IT WAS THE BEST THING OR NOT.
- I JUST HOPE WE HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN ANYTHING.
- MOM, LET'S GO.
WHERE ARE WE GONNA GO?
IT LOOKS LIKE DICKSON
IS THE HOTTEST HUB
AROUND FAYETTEVILLE.
WE'RE GONNA GO DOWNTOWN
TO DICKSON STREET.
IT IS NEAR THE COLLEGE,
AND THERE'S LOTS
OF FOOT TRAFFIC.
WHERE DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD GO?
DICKSON STREET?
- DICKSON'S BUSY, BUT IT'S NOT GONNA BE BUSY UNTIL LATER...
- AHH.
‘CAUSE EVERYONE'S GONNA GO OUT
AT NIGHT FOR DRINKING.
I SEE.
THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW.
THE POP‐A‐WAFFLE TEAM
IS ALL ABOUT MAKING IT WORK
IN THE MOMENT.
PLENTY OF ROOM,
PLENTY.
I KNOW THIS PLAN DIDN'T REALLY
WORK FOR US IN FLAGSTAFF,
BUT I FIGURED WE'VE GIVE IT
ANOTHER SHOT.
IT'LL BE READY IN
ABOUT 15 MINUTES, OKAY, MAN?
DUDE,
THAT'S RECORD TIME FOR US.I KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW,
BUT I HAVE A REALLY GOOD FEELING
ABOUT THIS WEEKEND.
IT SEEMS LIKE WE'RE GONNA FIND
A LOT OF FOOT TRAFFIC
ON DICKSON.
WE'RE ON A REALLY GOOD SIDE
OF THE STREET,
WHICH IS THE BAR SIDE.I KNOW.
DO YOU SEE EVERYONE THAT'S
JUST WALKING PAST US RIGHT NOW?
YEAH.
WE ARE READY
TO START COOKING AND SELLING
AND MAKING SOME MONEY
THIS WEEKEND.
WE'LL BE OPEN
IN JUST A LITTLE BIT.
IF YOU COULD JUST HANG TIGHT,
THAT WOULD BE GREAT.
THIS LOOKS LIKE A BAR
OR SOMETHING.
WHEN THEY COME OUT DRUNK, THEY
CAN COME RIGHT IN OUR TRUCK.
WE'VE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS
WITH OUR LOCATIONS
THE PAST FEW WEEKS.
FINALLY WE GOT A GREAT SPOT
IN FRONT OF A BAR.
I THINK WE'RE GONNA GET
SOME PRETTY GOOD SALES TONIGHT.
FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS,
LET'S GET IT. AH.
WE'RE KEEPING OUR MENU SIMPLE
WITH GREAT FISH BASKETS
AND OUR FAMOUS BUBBLING
BROWN SUGAR PEACH LEMONADE.
THANK YOU.
WHAT'S UP, GUYS?
THIS IS
GROUND TURKEY.
WE'RE GONNA SPICE IT UP
THE SAME WAY WE DID OUR PORK.
WE NEVER KNEW THAT THE FRIED
BALLS WOULD BE SO TASTY.
DEEP‐FRYING THAT BAD BOY
AND ADDING THAT D. M. D. SAUCE
TO IT‐‐
OOH, IT'S ACTUALLY
REALLY, REALLY GOOD.
FAYETTEVILLE,
HERE WE GO.
TWO BALLS.
TWO BALLS
AND A BURGER.
TWO BALLS
AND A BURGER!
FIVE BALLS.
FIVE BALLS!
OH, MAN.
WHAT'S WRONG?
THEY'RE OPEN.
THEY HAVE A LINE
AND PRETTY GOOD ONE. OKAY.
TIFFANY'S FREAKING OUT
A LITTLE BIT.
SEOUL SAUSAGE OPENED THEIR DOORS
BEFORE US.
I DON'T CARE WHAT
THE OTHER TEAMS ARE DOING.
WE NEED TO FOCUS
ON WHAT WE ARE DOING,
FINISHED GETTING PREPPED
SO THAT WE CAN GET OPEN.
DID WE GET TORTILLAS?
NO.
HOW DID THEY NOT
MAKE OUR LIST?
HOW DID THEY NOT
MAKE YOUR LIST?
I ASKED YOU BOTH TO LOOK
AT THAT LIST. I'M SURE OF IT.
YOU DIDN'T ASK ME.
NO WAY.
OH, I THINK I DID.
IT'S A LITTLE DIFFICULT
TO SELL A TACO
WITHOUT A TORTILLA TO PUT IT IN.
WHAT'S OUR PLAN?
ARE WE GONNA PREP EVERYTHING
AND THEN RUN AND GET ‘EM? YEAH.
MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING
NOT TOO FAR FROM HERE.
THIS WHOLE COMPETITION
IS BASED ON SALES,
AND RIGHT NOW THEY'VE GOT SALES,
WE DON'T.
WE HAVE GOT TO MAKE SOME MONEY.
SO OUR FIVE REMAINING TEAMS
HAVE GOTTEN REALLY GOOD
AT THE FOOD TRUCK GAME‐‐
LUNCHES, DINNERS,
DONE AND DOWN PAT,
BUT I'M NOT GONNA GIVE AWAY
A FOOD TRUCK PLUS $50,000
TO A TEAM
THAT'S NOT WELL‐ROUNDED.
I NEED TO MAKE SURE THESE GUYS
CAN COOK AT ANY HOUR OF THE DAY.
HELLO?
HEY, GUYS, IT'S TYLER.
I'M NOT HAPPY TO HEAR FROM YOU,
TYLER. WHAT'S UP?
GUYS, IT'S TIME
FOR YOUR TRUCK STOP,
AND I MEAN THAT LITERALLY.
TIME FOR
OUR TRUCK STOP.
STOP, SHUT YOUR TRUCK DOWN
RIGHT NOW.
SHUT DOWN THE TRUCK?
WHAT?
I mean it.
Stop what you're doing.
You've made your last sell.
WE'RE DONE
FOR THE NIGHT.
WE HAVE MADE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
TODAY. THAT'S AWESOME.
WHAT ELSE, TYLER?
YOU GUYS ARE DONE FOR THE NIGHT,
because you'll be getting up
before the crack of dawn.
WE GOT TO BE UP
AND EARLY.
I'M GIVING YOU
A BREAKFAST CHALLENGE.
BREAKFAST CHALLENGE?
WHOO, CHILD!
Guys, this challenge is
all about a secret ingredient.
BUT YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO WAIT
TILL TOMORROW MORNING
TO FIND OUT WHAT IT IS.
THIS SUCKS, MAN.
SO CALL IT A DAY
AND GET SOME REST,
BECAUSE THIS THING
IS GOING OFF EARLY.
WE NEED
TO GO TO BED NOW.
WHOO. OKAY.
THAT'S IT, GUYS.
SWEET DREAMS.
WE FINALLY GOT THE HOT SPOT,
AND WE GOT TO GO.I KNOW.
OH, MY GOSH. IF WE
DON'T MAKE IT TO THE NEXT CITY
WITH A BREAKFAST CHALLENGE
IN FRONT OF US,
I WOULD FALL OVER DEAD.
REALLY SORRY. TYLER JUST SHUT US
DOWN FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT.
I'M NOT HAPPY.
THIS IS THE WORST POSSIBLE WAY
TO START OUR WEEKEND.
WE HAVEN'T EVEN SOLD
ANYTHING YET.
WE HAVE MADE ZERO.
COMING UP ON
“THE GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE”...
OH, WAIT.
STOP, STOP, STOP, STOP, STOP.
I AM REQUIRING YOU
to use a classic American
product in your dish.
- STRAIGHTEN OUT.
- YOU'RE GONNA GET RUN OVER, NAME OF THE GAME.
GOOD MORNING,
IT'S TIME FOR BREAKFAST!
IT'S EARLY MORNING ON DAY TWO
IN FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS...
- DAMN, DUDE.
- 5:00 A. M.
AND OUR FIVE TEAMS ARE HEADED
TO A LOCAL STORAGE FACILITY
WHERE THEIR FOOD TRUCKS
HAVE BEEN PARKED OVERNIGHT.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN
A BREAKFAST CHALLENGE
ON “THE FOOD TRUCK RACE.”
THE TEAMS ALL KNOW
THEY'RE ABOUT TO HAVE
A BREAKFAST
COOKING CHALLENGE...
I CAN MAKE SOMETHING
OUT OF ANYTHING.
AND THEY ALSO KNOW
THEY'LL HAVE TO WORK
WITH A MYSTERY INGREDIENT.
I THINK IT'S GONNA BE SOMETHING
THAT'S ABSOLUTELY WEIRD...
NO, IT'S GONNA BE‐‐
THAT WOULDN'T INCORPORATE
IN YOUR BREAKFAST.
THE QUESTION IS, WHAT IS IT?
HERE WE ARE.
LET THE DAY BEGIN.
WELL, THEY'RE ABOUT
TO FIND OUT.
GOOD MORNING, TRUCK.
WE'RE HERE FOR YOU.
JEREMY, I AM SO GLAD
YOU'RE HERE, MAN.
ARE YOU READY
FOR A FUN CHALLENGE TODAY?
YEAH, DEFINITELY.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S DO THIS.
HERE WE GO.
HELLO?
GOOD MORNING.
IT'S TYLER.
GOOD MORNING, TYLER.
I hope you're bright‐eyed
and bushy‐tailed,
BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA BE COOKING
SOME BREAKFAST.
TO WHO?
THERE'S NOBODY TO COOK FOR HERE.
Here's the thing.
SINCE WE'RE IN A CLASSIC
AMERICAN COLLEGE TOWN,
I am requiring you
to use a classic American
product in your dish.
PUT, LIKE, A CLASSIC
AMERICAN PRODUCT IN OUR DISH.
IT'S A BREAKFAST STAPLE
THAT'S PROBABLY FOUND
in every single dorm room
here
in the University of Arkansas.
IT'S KELLOGG'S POP‐TARTS. WHAT?
POP‐TARTS?
THAT SOUNDS AWESOME.
WE GOT
TO USE POP‐TARTS.
WE GOT
TO USE POP‐TARTS?
NOW SINCE MOST TEENAGERS
THAT I KNOW OF
WOULD DO ANYTHING
FOR A POP‐TART,
I THINK IT'S APPROPRIATE THAT
YOUR JUDGE TODAY BE A TEENAGER.
OUR JUDGE IS GOING TO BE
A TEENAGER.
It just so happens
that this teen
IS AN ACCOMPLISHED CHEF
IN HIS OWN RIGHT.
HE'S ALREADY WORKED WITH SOME
PRETTY ACCOMPLISHED PEOPLE
LIKE MICHELLE BERNSTEIN,
ART SMITH, TODD ENGLISH,
AND HE'S EVEN BEEN ON SET
for a little cooking show
called “Tyler's Ultimate.”
A TEEN THAT'S WORKED
WITH ACCLAIMED CHEFS.
THAT IS AWESOME.
So since this town bleeds red
for the Razorbacks,
I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE FITTING
TO GIVE YOU
the classic red Strawberry
flavor to work with...
STRAWBERRY‐FLAVORED.
AND YOU'VE GOT A SURPRISE FLAVOR
JUST TO KEEP THINGS INTERESTING.
AND ONE SURPRISE.
SO THERE YOU HAVE IT.
YOUR POP‐TARTS ARE
ON YOUR TRUCK WAITING FOR YOU.
If you come up
with the winning dish,
YOU'RE GONNA RECEIVE
A TOKEN WORTH $750
IN YOUR TILL.
WHOO‐WHEE.
ALL RIGHT, GUYS, THAT'S IT.
GOOD LUCK.
THANKS, TYLER.
BYE‐BYE.
AWESOME. THANKS, MAN.
WHAT?!
POP‐TART MAGIC.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
POP‐A‐WAFFLE, POP‐A‐TART‐‐
THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER
FOR THE POP‐A‐WAFFLE TEAM.
THIS IS A PERFECT FLAVOR
COMBINATION FOR OUR WAFFLES.
COULD WE TAKE
ONE OF THE STRAWBERRIES
AND CHOP IT UP REALLY FINE
AND PUT IT IN THE BATTER
AND MAKE
A STRAWBERRY POP‐TART WAFFLE?
POSSIBLY.
STRAWBERRY AND CHOCOLATE FUDGE.
THIS IS FUN.
FUN!
WE CAN CRUSH THIS UP
INTO PIECES AND DIP IT IN IT
AND THEN DO IT
AS ITALIAN FRENCH TOAST.
WE'LL JUST HAVE TO SEE HOW
IT'S GONNA WORK ON THE FRYER.
IF WE TAKE THEM APART,
USE THE BOTTOM
AS A BASE...
MAYBE USE
THAT FILLING.
AND USE THE FILLING
AND WITH THE CREAM CHEESE.
YEAH,
WITH THE CREAM CHEESE.
WE'RE GONNA DO A PLAY
ON A NAPOLEON.
WE GOT BLUEBERRY
AND STRAWBERRY.
WE'VE GOT CREAM CHEESE
IN THE TRUCK ALREADY,
AND I THINK IF WE CAN FLAVOR
THE CREAM CHEESE
WITH THE FILLING
FROM THE POP‐TART
THAT IT'LL KIND OF TRANSFORM IT
AND YET USE ALL THE DIFFERENT
PIECES IN A DIFFERENT WAY.
HERE THEY ARE IN A BOX.
HE WAS SERIOUS.
LOOK AT THAT.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
I HAVE NO FREAKING CLUE
RIGHT NOW.
I AM LITERALLY STUMPED.
WHAT THE HELL ARE WE GONNA DO
WITH POP‐TARTS AND FISH?
WE'VE GOT TO COME UP
WITH SOME KIND OF PLAN
TO MAKE A TASTY DISH USING WHAT
WE ALREADY HAVE ON THE TRUCK.
I THINK IF WE REPURPOSE
THE POP‐TART,
BREAK IT DOWN,
CHOP IT UP,
GET SOME NICE
CRISPY POTATOES.
TOSS ‘EM TOGETHER, I THINK IT'D
BE A GOOD FLAVOR COMBINATION.
OH, MY GOSH.
THIS IS
GONNA BE A LONG DAY.
CAN WE EAT ONE RIGHT NOW?
IT'S LIKE, MWAH, MWAH.
POP‐TARTS AREN'T REALLY
A TRADITIONAL
KOREAN BREAKFAST STAPLE,
SO I'M GONNA HAVE TO GET
PRETTY CREATIVE
WITH WHAT I'M GONNA DO
FOR BREAKFAST.
WE'LL DO A BREAKFAST
FRENCH TOAST SANDWICH.
YEAH! I LIKE THAT.
I'M JUST GONNA DO A POP‐TART‐
ENCRUSTED FRENCH TOAST,
AND I'M GONNA SANDWICH IT
BETWEEN CREAM CHEESE,
KOREAN SPICED BACON, AND TOP
THAT SUCKER WITH A FRIED EGG.
THAT WAS $1?
THIS WOULD BE $10.60.
WE'VE ONLY GOT $16.
I KNOW WE NEED CORN TORTILLAS.
AND BECAUSE OF WHAT WE'VE
DECIDED TO DO WITH THE POP‐TARTS
WE NEED A BUCKET
OF WHIPPED TOPPING.
WE DON'T EVEN HAVE A $1 LEFT
AFTER THIS.
$15.40, SWEETHEART.
I HOPE THIS WORKS, ‘CAUSE WE DO
NOT HAVE A SAFETY NET THIS TIME.
THANK YOU.
IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S
A FARMERS' MARKET IN TOWN.
THAT WOULD BE AMAZING.
YEAH, IT IS HERE.
LET ME JUST, UM,
I'M GONNA LOOK IT UP.
HI, WE'RE IN TOWN FOR A FOOD
COMPETITION WITH OUR FOOD TRUCK,
AND WE'LL PUT THE TOP TWO TRUCKS
IF YOU'LL LET US COME IN.
OKAY, GREAT.
THERE'S TWO TEAMS IN THIS RACE
THAT I THINK ARE THE TOP TWO.
IT'S NONNA'S
AND IT'S SEOUL SAUSAGE.
AT THIS POINT IN THE RACE,
I THINK THE SMARTEST THING
WE CAN DO
IS PARTNER WITH SEOUL SAUSAGE
BECAUSE WE'RE GONNA ATTRACT
THE BIGGEST CROWDS.
WHAT'S UP?
I JUST TALKED TO THE LADY
AT THE FARMERS' MARKET IN TOWN.
It's this huge
farmers' market
THAT GOES ON
IN DOWNTOWN FAYETTEVILLE.
WOULD YOU GUYS BE INTERESTED
IN COMING WITH US?
WE WOULD LOVE
TO DO THAT.
AWESOME.
HI, THERE.
MY NAME IS SCOTT,
AND I AM CALLING FROM
A BREAKFAST FOOD TRUCK
CALLED POP‐A‐WAFFLE,
AND WE WONDERED
IF THERE MIGHT BE SOME SPACE
IN YOUR FARMERS' MARKET.
THAT'S TOTALLY FINE
WITH US.
THAT'S GREAT NEWS. BYE.
♪ WAFFLE LOVE
IN THE HOUSE WAFFLE LOVE
OH, GET READY
FOR SOME WAFFLES.
HI, MY NAME IS LENA.
I'M CALLING FROM
COAST OF ATLANTA FOOD TRUCK.
WE WANTED TO KNOW IF WE CAN COME
PARK AT THE FARMERS' MARKET.
OH, OKAY. THANK YOU.
BYE‐BYE.
DID WE GET A PLAN B?
SEE IF THERE'S SOMETHING
BY THE FARMERS' MARKET,
LIKE ON THE OUTSKIRTS,
WHERE WE CAN PARK.
WE CAN'T SET UP
IN THE FARMERS' MARKET,
BUT WE SURE CAN SET UP
AROUND IT.
OKAY.
EVEN THOUGH WE CAN'T PARK
INSIDE THE FARMERS' MARKET,
WE SHOULD BE ABLE
TO GET REALLY CLOSE.
THERE'S A SPOT
RIGHT THERE.
KEEP GOING.
OKAY, GOOD. OKAY, ONE SEC.
- I'M GOOD, RIGHT?
- IT MIGHT HAVE TO GO FORWARD A LITTLE
JUST BECAUSE THERE'S A GIANT
LIGHT POLE RIGHT HERE.
OH, WAIT.
STOP, STOP, STOP, STOP, STOP.
OH, OH.
- GOOD MORNING, FAYETTEVILLE.
- GOOD MORNING!
IT'S SUNDAY MORNING
IN FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS,
AND THE TEAMS ARE GEARING UP
FOR THEIR FIRST‐EVER
BREAKFAST SERVICE...
A CHICKEN WAFFLE
AND A BOTTLE OF WATER.
FOR THEIR FIRST‐EVER
BREAKFAST SERVICE...
A CHICKEN WAFFLE
AND A BOTTLE OF WATER.
AND PREPARING A SPECIAL
THAT COULD EARN THEM
A HUGE ADVANTAGE.
WE ARE COOKING
WITH POP‐TARTS TODAY.
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE,
SEOUL SAUSAGE,
AND POP‐A‐WAFFLE
ALL HAVE PRIME SPOTS INSIDE
THE LOCAL FARMERS' MARKET...
ARE YOU READY
FOR SOME WAFFLES?!
BUT COAST OF ATLANTA
IS ON THE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN.
READY TO MAKE SOME BREAKFAST?
ALL RIGHT, LET'S DO IT.
MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB
IS ALSO SHUT OUT
OF THE FARMERS' MARKET ACTION,
BUT THEY HAVE A MUCH BIGGER
PROBLEM TO WORRY ABOUT.
THEY'RE ABOUT
TO GET A GIANT BILL
FOR THE DAMAGED LIGHT POST,
AND IT'S COMING
OUT OF THEIR TILL.
ADRIANE, HANG ON.
HANG ON.
WHAT?
THERE IS ELECTRICAL
THAT IS LIVE THERE.
YOU ARE NOT
GONNA DO ANYTHING WITH IT.
I'M DEVASTATED.
WE WORKED SO HARD
TO GET WHERE WE ARE.
WE'RE PURSUING
SOMETHING BIG HERE.
IF THIS IS GONNA BE
TAKEN CARE OF OUT OF OUR TILL,
THERE'S NO POSSIBLE WAY
THAT WE'RE STAYING.
WE'RE DONE.
YOU KNOW, IT'S‐‐
THIS IS REALLY BAD.
I'M JUST TRYING TO STAY CALM,
CLEANING UP THE MESS.
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT,
AND YOU KNOW,
IT WAS UNFORTUNATE.
I'M MAYOR JORDAN.
NICE TO MEET YOU,
MAYOR JORDAN.
YEAH, THERE'S
BROKEN GLASS THERE.
WE'LL GET IT ALL CLEANED UP.
IT'LL BE ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT?
OKAY.
ARE WE OKAY TO STILL PARK HERE
AND SELL HERE?
YEAH.
WE'RE ALL RIGHT?
IF THERE'S ANY CHANCE
OF US STAYING,
WE CAN'T JUST STAND AROUND.
WE'RE GONNA SERVE PEOPLE.
WE'RE GONNA HAVE
A GOOD TIME THIS WEEKEND.
WE'RE JUST GONNA MAKE IT HAPPEN.
YOU KNOW,
THIS TRAFFIC SIGN
ACTUALLY MAKES IT
A BIG OLD EVENT OUT HERE.
I CAN HELP ANYBODY
THAT NEEDS TO BE HELPED.
THIS IS THE PERFECT
CHALLENGE FOR US, BECAUSE
WE'RE BLENDING OUR NONNA'S
FAMOUS ITALIAN FRENCH TOAST
WITH A CHILDHOOD FAVORITE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
ANOTHER STRAWBERRY UP!
WE ARE DOING A VANILLA CINNAMON‐
BATTERED FRENCH TOAST
- I NEED THE STRAWBERRY.
- CRUSTED IN
EITHER STRAWBERRY POP‐TARTS
OR CHOCOLATE FUDGE POP‐TARTS.
WE COOK IT ON THE FLATTOP
SO THE POP‐TARTS
MELT INTO THE FRENCH TOAST,
AND THEN WE SERVE IT
WITH A DOLLOP
OF MASCARPONE WHIPPED CREAM.
ONE STRAWBERRY, RIGHT?
THANK YOU.
I'M DETERMINED TO WIN
THIS CHALLENGE,
‘CAUSE IT IS
A BREAKFAST CHALLENGE,
AND WE CAN BE PERCEIVED
AS A BREAKFAST TRUCK.
MY MIND
JUST WENT DIRECTLY TOWARD
INCORPORATING THE POP‐TARTS
DIRECTLY INTO OUR WAFFLE BATTER.
I CAN TASTE THE FROSTING
IN IT... MM‐HMM.
AND THE STRAWBERRY BITS.
I MACERATED SOME BERRIES.
I ALSO INCORPORATED
CONFECTIONERS' SUGAR ICING
TO TOP IT OFF.
10 OUT OF 10.
CAN I DO THE SPECIAL‐‐
THE HASH?
ALL RIGHT, YOU WANT
TO TRY OUR POP‐TART HASH?
YES.
ONE BREAKFAST HASH.
ONE HASH.
I FEEL REALLY GOOD THAT
THE POP‐TART HASH IS SELLING.
PEOPLE REALLY SEEM TO ENJOY IT,
THE SAVORY WITH THE SWEET
AND THE SPICY,
AND BACON MAKES
EVERYTHING BETTER.
ALL RIGHT,
HERE'S YOUR POP‐TART HASH.
THANK YOU.
APPRECIATE IT.
PEOPLE LOVING IT. GO AHEAD,
MIKE. YOU DID SOMETHING.
I'M CUTTING UP
SOME POP‐TARTS.
WE'RE GONNA TOAST ‘EM
IN SOME BUTTER
SO THEY GET A NICE BUTTERY CRISP
ON THE BOTTOM...
YEAH.
AND THEN WE'RE GONNA KIND OF
MAKE A NAPOLEON OUT OF IT,
LAYERED.
I'VE GOT A BLUEBERRY POP‐TART
ON THE BOTTOM.
THEN WE'VE GOT THIS CREAM CHEESE
AND WHIPPED TOPPING MIXTURE
WITH LEMON JUICE IN IT,
STRAWBERRY POP‐TART ON THE TOP,
THEN THE FRESH STRAWBERRIES,
AND THE CRUMBLE ON THE TOP
IS THE OUTSIDE OF THE POP‐TARTS.
THERE'S OUR POP‐TART
BREAKFAST DISH.
FUNNY, I OWE YOU $1.
CRUMBLE THEM ALL.
YOU WANT THEM SEPARATED?
NO, TOGETHER.
THE ONLY KIND OF COOKING
I REALLY DID WITH POP‐TARTS
IS TO THROW ’EM
INTO A TOASTER OVEN,
SO THERE'S DEFINITELY GONNA BE
SOME SEOUL IN THIS THIS TIME.
IT'S ONE THING TO COME UP
WITH A GREAT IDEA.
IT'S ANOTHER THING
TO EXECUTE IT.
I'VE NEVER MADE
A POP‐TART‐ENCRUSTED
FRENCH TOAST SANDWICH BEFORE.
SO I'M REALLY CONCENTRATING
RIGHT NOW.
I'M PUTTING BACON
ON THE BREAD.
HE CARAMELIZED THE BACON
WITH BROWN SUGAR AND KIMCHI.
SOME CREAM CHEESE,
SOME FRIED EGG ON TOP.
THIS HAS SOME SERIOUS SEOUL
IN IT.
WE'RE DOING
ITALIAN FRENCH TOAST
TOPPED WITH
MASCARPONE WHIPPED CREAM.
I'M RUNNING OUT
OF STRAWBERRY POP‐TARTS.
- HI, CAN I GET THE BREAKFAST SPECIAL?
- $5, PLEASE.
I HAVE TO SAY THAT I LOVE THAT
IT'S CRISPY ON THE OUTSIDE.
IT DEFINITELY HAS
A NICE CRUNCH TO IT,
WHICH IS REALLY GREAT TEXTURE,
ESPECIALLY COMPLEMENTS
THE DOUGHINESS ON THE INSIDE,
WHICH IS A LITTLE BIT TOO MUCH,
BUT THE CRUNCHINESS IS PERFECT,
NICE AND CARAMELIZED AND SWEET
ON THE TOP.
I'M GONNA ORDER
THE BREAKFAST SPECIAL.
OH, YEAH, OKAY.
HEY,
WE GOT THE KILLER!
JEREMY, HERE YOU GO.
OH, WOW.
THANK YOU.
THIS IS HUGE. OKAY.
SEOUL SAUSAGE DEFINITELY COULD
HAVE GONE A LITTLE LIGHTER,
BUT IT'S GREAT,
AND I LOVE HOW IT'S BURNT
ON THE OUTSIDE.
THE PRESENTATION IS WONDERFUL,
REALLY, THE WHOLE THING.
HERE YOU GO, MY MAN.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
THE OVERALL QUALITY IS OKAY.
I WOULD HAVE LIKED
TO SEE SOMETHING
MAYBE A LITTLE THINNER,
MAYBE SOMETHING
ON THE INSIDE OF THE WAFFLE,
MAYBE LIKE A WAFFLE SANDWICH.
BUT IT'S A NICE FLAVOR. IT'S
OKAY. IT'S SUBTLE, NOTHING WOW.
ALL RIGHT, WE HAVE A POP‐TART
HASH SPECIAL FOR YOU.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I REALLY LOVE
THE POP‐TART HASH.
THE FLAVORS MELD REALLY WELL
WITH EACH OTHER.
I LOVE THE POTATOES.
I LOVE THE BACON.
HOWEVER, IF I WOULD MAKE
ONE IMPROVEMENT, IT WOULD BE
TO DEFINITELY USE
BETTER POTATOES.
I'M KIND OF GETTING
FRENCH FRIES IN HERE,
AND I DON'T KNOW
HOW I LIKE THAT THAT MUCH.
HOW'S IT GOING?
HI.
HOW YOU DOING TODAY?
I'M GOOD.
I'M GOING TO HAVE
A POP‐TART SPECIAL.
OKAY.
THE POP‐TART ITSELF IS CLASSIC
POP‐TART. IT'S DELICIOUS.
HOWEVER, ALL THE ADD‐ONS‐‐
THAT CREAM CHEESE,
THE STRAWBERRIES, THE CHOCOLATE,
IT'S A LITTLE TOO MUCH.
HELLO?
HI, GUYS.
IT'S TYLER.
HI, TYLER.
JEREMY HAS TASTED ALL FIVE
OF YOUR BREAKFAST SPECIALS,
AND BESIDES BEING
INCREDIBLY FULL,
HE IS READY
TO HAND OUT
A REWARD FOR $750.
A REWARD FOR $750.
ALL RIGHT, TYLER'S GOT
SOME NEWS FOR US.
COME ON, JEREMY.
TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD.
ALL RIGHT, JEREMY, SOMEBODY'S
GONNA WIN RANDY OVER HERE
AND MORE IMPORTANTLY,
$750.
WHO'S IT GONNA BE?
WELL, GUYS, THIS WAS
A REALLY TOUGH CHALLENGE,
BUT WHAT IT CAME DOWN TO WAS WHO
FEATURED THE POP‐TART THE BEST.
ALL RIGHT.
FOR ME, THE TWO TEAMS THAT
REALLY MADE THE POP‐TART SHINE
WERE
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE
AND SEOUL SAUSAGE.
AND SEOUL SAUSAGE.
OH, MY GOSH!
ALWAYS IN THE TOP TWO.
CONGRATULATIONS, GUYS.
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE,
I'M GUESSING YOUR FRENCH TOAST
WAS ONE OF GRANDMA'S RECIPES.
IT WAS OUR
GRANDMOTHER'S RECIPE, YES.
WELL, NONNA
SHOULD BE PROUD.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
DID WE WIN?
AND, SEOUL SAUSAGE,
THE EGGS, THE BACON,
THE FRENCH TOAST,
IT WAS INCREDIBLY CREATIVE.
- It was like a complete breakfast package.
- GOOD JOB, CHRIS.
SO IT'S DOWN TO NONNA'S
KITCHENETTE AND SEOUL SAUSAGE.
WHO'S GONNA WIN RANDY
OVER HERE,
PLUS $750?
Well, Tyler,
THE WINNER IS...
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE.
THANK YOU, JEREMY, SO MUCH.
WE ARE SO HAPPY.
THIS IS THE BEST NEWS
I EVER HAD IN MY LIFE.
THIS IS GONNA REALLY MAKE A HUGE
DIFFERENCE IN THIS COMPETITION.
ALL RIGHT, LISTEN, SO JEREMY'S
GONNA COME BY WITH A TOKEN
WORTH $750
IN YOUR TILL.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
WE CAN'T WAIT TO GET IT.
NOW FOR THE REST
OF YOU,
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE
TO ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES
AND FIGURE OUT
HOW TO CLOSE THE GAP.
WE NEED TO CLOSE THAT GAP
WITH THAT $750.
BUT FIRST, YOU GUYS
are gonna have
a little siesta.
SIESTA, GREAT.
YOU GOT IT.
I'M SHUTTING YOU DOWN AGAIN.
GUYS, THIS IS
YOUR SPEED BUMP.
SPEED BUMP.
Now that you've mastered
the breakfast shift,
there's one more shift
you got to master.
THAT'S
THE GRAVEYARD SHIFT. OH, NO.
OKAY.
GUYS, YOU'RE ALL CLOSED
AS OF RIGHT NOW.
NO MORE SALES.
SHUTTING DOWN.
AND THEN WHAT?
YOU CAN REOPEN
AT 1:00 A. M.
And push through
past dawn.
WE'RE OPENING
AT 1:00 A. M.
WE'RE OPENING UP
AT 1:00 A. M.?
WE HAVE TO CLOSE NOW,
BUT WE REOPEN AT 1:00 A. M.
OH, MY GOD.
1:00 A. M.?
WE'LL SEE HOW IT GOES OUT THERE.
YOU MIGHT CATCH A BAR CROWD.
YOU MIGHT CATCH CRICKETS.
Either way, you need
to close down and rest up.
We'll see you back on the street
at 1:00 a. M.
PEOPLE ARE GONNA BE
VERY UPSET WITH US.
ALL RIGHT,
HERE WE GO, MAN.
THIS GOES
TO NONNA'S KITCHENETTE.
NOW BE CAREFUL WITH THIS, ‘CAUSE
THE GIRLS ARE KIND OF SMALL.
OH, MY GOSH.
IT MIGHT BE AS BIG AS THEM.
RANDY THE RAZORBACK GETS A HOME.
TYLER HAS SHUT US DOWN.
WE HAVE TO REOPEN THIS BAD BOY
AT 1:00 A. M.
IF ANYBODY CAN HELP US FIND
A GREAT SPOT AT 1:00 A. M.
AND KNOWS WHERE
THE PARTY'S GONNA BE,
WE WOULD LOVE YOU
SO MUCH.
FAYETTEVILLE,
GIVE ME AN “OHH.”
OHH.
- ARE YOU GUYS GONNA GO OUT AND PARTY TONIGHT?
- YEAH!
‘CAUSE WE'RE GONNA TAKE
A GRAVEYARD SHIFT ON TONIGHT.
IT'LL BE AT 1:00 A. M.
WE'RE GONNA TAKE
A LITTLE CATNAP,
AND WE'RE GONNA BE READY
TO SERVE EVERYONE HERE.
- HEY, GIRLS.
- WHAT IS THAT?
OH, MY GOD, GUYS!
IT'S OUR PRIZE!
I WANT YOU TO MEET
RANDY THE RAZORBACK.
OH, MY GOD.
HE'S YOUR VERY NEW ADDITION
TO YOUR TRUCK
AND MAYBE EVEN
ON YOUR MANTEL.
I SAW YOU! I REMEMBER YOU!
I SERVED YOU!
WE LOVE YOU, JEREMY.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I REMEMBER YOU!
WHOO!
CONGRATULATIONS.
I LOVE MY RAZORBACK.
AND I'M SO PROUD OF MY TEAM.
I'M SO PROUD OF OUR NONNA'S
FOR HELPING US WITH THIS RECIPE.
AND WE'RE JUST HAPPY
TO HAVE HIM ONBOARD.
OKAY, EVERYBODY, WE ARE CLOSED,
AND WE WILL REOPEN AT 1:00 A. M.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU!
GO, NONNA'S KITCHEN!
RIGHT NOW I CAN'T TAKE
ANY MORE ORDERS.
OH.
I AM SHUT DOWN.
I'M SORRY.
YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT A DAY
FOR UPS AND DOWNS.
HOW LONG WAS OUR LINE?
DID YOU SEE IT OUT THERE?
IT WAS
DOWN THE SIDEWALK.
CUT US A BREAK, TYLER.
COME ON.
WE COULD HAVE USED
THAT EXTRA TIME.
OH, MY GOODNESS.
I HAVE NOT DONE
AN OVERNIGHT SHIFT LIKE THIS
SINCE I WORKED IN RADIO
IN THE LATE ‘90s.
IT'S 1:00 A.M.
IN FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS,
AND OUR TEAMS ARE
ABOUT TO TACKLE SOMETHING
EVEN FOOD TRUCK VETERANS
RARELY TRY‐‐
THE GRAVEYARD SHIFT.
FELIX THAT WE MET TODAY, THEY'RE
GONNA SAVE US A SPOT ON DICKSON.
ALL THE TEAMS ARE BANKING
ON THE BAR CROWD
AT DICKSON STREET...
BUT THEY ALL KNOW IT WILL BE
CRICKETS BY 3:00 A. M.
POP‐A‐WAFFLE HAS A SPOT
NEAR A BEER GARDEN
OFF THE MAIN DRAG.
ARE YOU GUYS READY
FOR WAFFLES?
SEOUL SAUSAGE PLANS
TO PULL UP ON DICKSON
AND LET THE CROWDS
COME TO THEM.
WE GOT A BATCH OF BALLS
THAT WE COULD DO.
THAT'S ALL WE GOT LEFT
RIGHT NOW.
COAST OF ATLANTA'S OUT OF FOOD,
SO THEY'RE GONNA
DROP THEIR TRUCK AND DASH OFF
TO A 24‐HOUR GROCERY STORE.
20 MINUTES. WE GOT
TO GO SHOPPING, ALL RIGHT?
HAVE A COUPLE
MORE DRINKS.
AND NONNA'S KITCHENETTE
HAS THEIR EYE ON A SPOT
BY THE CORNER OF DICKSON STREET
AND SCHOOL AVENUE. HOLY...
PROBLEM IS, SO DOES
MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB.
IT LOOKS LIKE A BUNCH
OF DRUNK COLLEGE KIDS.MM‐HMM.
PULL ALL THE WAY UP
BEHIND OUR CAR,
AND THEN
I'M GONNA BACK YOU IN.
ALL RIGHT, YOU'RE GOOD.
CAREFUL. CAREFUL.
JESS, CAN YOU SEE ME?
BACK STRAIGHT BACK.
YEAH.
HEY, HEY, HEY.
NO, NO, NO. WE WERE HERE FIRST.
THAT'S NOT A DEAL.
- STRAIGHTEN OUT.
- YOU'RE GONNA GET RUN OVER.
ANYWHERE ELSE,
I WOULD HAVE ALREADY
DECKED THIS GIRL IN THE FACE
AND LAID HER OUT,
BUT WE'RE IN A GAME.
WE"RE IN A COMPETITION.
SO JUST GET THE... AWAY FROM ME.
RIGHT HERE?
YEAH, WE'LL LEAVE A LITTLE SPACE
BETWEEN US AND THE... OKAY.
I JUST WANT
TO LET YOU GUYS KNOW
THIS IS THE ONLY PLACE
IN THE WORLD
YOU'RE GONNA GET SOME
KIMCHI FRIED CHEESY BALLS!
WHOO!
MY FIRST REACTION
IS THIS IS WHAT AEROSMITH
MUST HAVE FELT LIKE
EVERY TIME THEY WENT ONSTAGE.
7 BALLS,
$42, MY MAN.
WHY ARE YOU GETTING
AN ODD NUMBER OF BALLS?
FINALLY. CAN A BROTHER
GET 12 BALLS AND 2 LEMONADES?
AND TWO LEMONADES.
DICKSON STREET PARTYGOERS,
ARE YOU READY FOR SOME WAFFLES?
YEAH!
CUSTOMERS ARE WAITING FOR US.
THOSE KIDS ARE HUNGRY.
THEY WANT WAFFLES.
STAN, STAN, THE STRAWBERRY MAN.
IF HE CAN'T DO IT, NO ONE CAN.
I THINK WE MADE THE BEST MOVE
TO BE ABLE TO JUST OPEN QUICKLY
AND GET THOSE WAFFLES
OUT THE DOOR.
RACHEL. HELLO. THERE'S
YOUR CHURRO WAFFLE, DARLING.
THE FEELING RIGHT NOW
OF EVERYBODY ON THE STREETS
IS BY FAR THE CRAZIEST MOMENT
OF THIS RACE.
WOO...
PIG. SOOIE!
OH, MY GOD.
THESE PEOPLE ARE TREATING US
LIKE WE'RE CELEBRITIES.
THEY CAN'T WAIT TO EAT OUR FOOD,
AND WE ARE SO EXCITED
AND CANNOT WAIT TO SERVE THEM.
SO, GUYS, HERE'S
WHAT I'M SERVING RIGHT NOW.
I HAVE ITALIAN DOUGHNUTS,
AND THEY'RE FRIED, AND THEY'RE
COVERED IN POWDERED SUGAR.
WE CALL ‘EM ZEPPOLES AT HOME.
THEY'RE AWESOME.
THEN I HAVE A QUESADILLA
WITH MOZZARELLA, PESTO,
AND TOMATO.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
THANK YOU. I APPRECIATE IT.
HOW'S IT GOING? ENJOY.
LET'S GO.
WE GOT A CROWD TO GET BACK TO.
LET'S GO.
WE FIGURE
THIS IS A COLLEGE TOWN,
SO IT MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA
TO DROP OUR PRICE POINT
A LITTLE BIT.
WE WOULD LOVE
A FISH BASKET, PLEASE.
WE'RE STICKING WITH
ONE MENU ITEM‐‐FISH BASKETS.
THERE YOU GO, FIRST ORDER
OF THE DAY. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
WE ALSO MADE OUR PORTIONS
A LITTLE BIT SMALLER.
HOPEFULLY THAT'LL COMPENSATE
FOR THE DROP IN PRICE POINT.
THERE'S YOUR RECEIPT.
THANK YOU.
WE'LL CALL YOUR NUMBER
IN JUST A FEW MOMENTS.
THANK YOU, GUYS, FOR
WAITING. WHAT CAN I GET YOU?
AN ORDER
OF EVERYTHING.
AN ORDER OF EVERYTHING.
$12 TOTAL.
WE ARE
STILL FILLING ORDERS‐‐
YOU KNOW, I'M SURE EVENTUALLY
THIS IS GONNA TRICKLE OFF,
BUT ONCE IT IS,
THEN WE'LL JUST KEEP PREPPING
UNTIL THE EARLY MORNING CROWD
COMES BACK.
$16's YOUR CHANGE.
THANK YOU.
NICE HOT FRIED FISH,
DELICIOUS, YUMMY.
AS I EXPECTED, THE BAR CROWD
HAS PRETTY MUCH DIED OFF
AFTER A COUPLE OF HOURS.
NOW IT'S LIKE THE WALKING DEAD
ZONE. THERE'S NOBODY AROUND,
AND I CAN SEE TUMBLEWEEDS
BLOWING DOWN THE STREET.
ONE OF
THE CUSTOMERS SAID
- WE SHOULD GO CHECK OUT THE FARMERS' MARKET.
- YEP.
IT'S A HUGE
PEOPLE WALKING EVENT...
YEAH.
YOU KNOW,
SUNDAY MORNING.
WE FOUND OUT THERE'S ANOTHER
FARMERS' MARKET THIS MORNING,
SO WE'RE GONNA TRY TO GET IN
THERE AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE.
WE'RE IN THIS TRUCK.
IT'S KIND OF HARD
TO DETERMINE
WHETHER IT'S DAYLIGHT
OR NIGHTTIME OUT,
AND WE'RE ALL
A LITTLE BIT DISORIENTED.
OH, OH, OH. DAMN IT.
JUST...
YOU NEED TO LEAVE THE TRUCK,
MOM, FOR TEN MINUTES AT LEAST.
JUST STOP.
GO WALK AROUND OUTSIDE.
I WANT THIS DONE.
I AM NOT GOING ANYWHERE
OR DOING ANYTHING ELSE
UNTIL THE PREP IS DONE.
DO WE WANT TO CALL LORI AND TRY
TO GO TO THAT FARMERS' MARKET?
IT'S AT 9:00.
THERE'S A FARMERS' MARKET
IN TOWN.
IF I CAN GET ONE SOLID HOUR
OF SALES IN THIS MORNING,
I THINK IT'S THE BEST
POSSIBLE OPTION.
IF THERE'S AT LEAST PARKING
AROUND THE FARMERS' MARKET,
WE'RE BETTER OFF THERE.
I THINK ONCE I SEE A CROWD,
MY SECOND WIND WILL KICK IN,
BUT UNTIL THEN...
I THINK WE'RE JUST GONNA NEED
TO SLAP EACH OTHER.
TWO AND A HALF
DOZEN EGGS.
I GOT
TWO DIFFERENT CHEESES.
I NEED TO FIGURE OUT
SOMETHING TO MAKE.
THE FIRST THING THAT COMES
TO MIND IS BREAKFAST BURRITO
BECAUSE WHAT WOULD I WANT TO EAT
AFTER A LONG NIGHT OF DRINKING?
GROUND CHICKEN OR GROUND PORK?
WHAT'S CHEAPER? CHICKEN?
$1.49 A POUND.
BUT WE KIND OF TWEAKED IT. WE
TURNED IT INTO A BREAKFAST TACO.
NO.
KOREAN TACOS.
HECK YEAH.
I'M HUNGRY.
I'M A LITTLE SLEEPY.
BUT WHATEVER.
EVERY LAST DOLLAR COUNTS.
I GOT TO TOUGH OUT
WHATEVER I CAN TOUGH OUT.
TURN IT AROUND.
- CINNAMON BATTER WITH CHOCOLATE.
- PERFECT.
PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO PILE INTO
THE FARMERS' MARKET RIGHT NOW.
IT'S A GOOD FEELING.
HOPEFULLY WE CAN GET SOME
REALLY AWESOME LAST SALES IN.
NUMBER 46.
THE GOOD NEWS
IS THAT WE HAVE FRENCH TOAST
PREPPED FROM YESTERDAY.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
HI.
IT'S TILAPIA,
FRIED TILAPIA.
NUMBER 90.
♪ GOOD MORNING TO YOU
OUR PLAN OF ATTACK
AT THIS TIME IN THE MORNING
IS REALLY SIMPLE.
WE'RE GONNA DO A BASIC
STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE WAFFLE
- THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN A WINNER FOR US.
- HERE IS THE STRAWBERRY.
I GOT TWO TACOS
IN THE WINDOW.
ALL RIGHT,
LET'S FEED SOME PEOPLE.
THE SEOUL SAUSAGES JOINED US
IN OUR PRIMO SPOT.
WE'RE GONNA MAKE IT WORK.
ON AN EARLY SUNDAY MORNING,
THERE'S SAFETY IN NUMBERS.
WE GOT TEN TACOS
ALL DAY.
- JUST TAKE ONE MORE ORDER, AND THAT'S IT.
- AWESOME.
THERE YOU GO.
THANK YOU.
WE'RE GONNA KEEP PUTTING OUT
FOOD AND TRY AND GET
AS MANY CUSTOMERS RIGHT HERE
AS WE CAN TILL THE VERY END.
WE JUST HOPE IT'S ENOUGH.
THERE'S YOUR WINGS.
THANK YOU.
ALL RIGHT.
OUR LAST ORDER
IN FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS.
ALL RIGHT, Y'ALL,
THAT'S IT.
WE HAD A NICE LITTLE LAST PUSH
THOSE LAST 30 MINUTES.
YEP.
IT MIGHT HAVE KEPT US
IN THIS GAME.
HOPEFULLY.
WE'VE MADE OUR LAST SALE,
AND I JUST DON'T KNOW
IF IT'S GONNA BE ENOUGH
TO KEEP US IN THIS RACE.
I THINK THE BIGGEST MISTAKE
THAT WE MADE
IS NOT CALLING AHEAD TO GET INTO
THE FARMERS' MARKET.
I THINK THAT MIGHT HAVE
KILLED US.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TYLER'S
GONNA TAKE OUT OF OUR TILL
FOR THAT WHOLE DEAL,
THE LAMPPOST DEAL,
BUT WE CAN STILL‐‐WE CAN
STILL WIN BY A COUPLE DOLLARS.
IT'S LIKELY THAT WE'RE GOING
HOME, BECAUSE OF THE LAMPPOST.
AT LEAST WE'RE GOING OUT
KNOWING THAT WE CAN
RUN A FOOD TRUCK.
WE CAN PUT FOOD OUT,
AND WE CAN BE SUCCESSFUL
AT THIS BUSINESS.
WHAT A DAY.
GUYS, HERE WE ARE
AT THE FOURTH
“GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE”
ELIMINATION,
AND I'M GONNA GET
RIGHT TO THE POINT.
I THOUGHT
I HAD SEEN IT ALL
OVER THE COURSE
OF TWO AND A HALF RACES,
BUT I WAS WRONG.
THIS ELIMINATION IS GONNA BE
UNLIKE ANY OTHER WE'VE EVER HAD.
I FEEL SAD, REALLY SAD,
BECAUSE I DON'T THINK
WE DID WELL ENOUGH TO MAKE UP
FOR THE DIFFERENCE THAT
THE LAMPPOST IS GONNA COST US.
I'M TRYING TO BE POSITIVE
AND THINK HAPPY THOUGHTS,
BUT THERE'S THIS GNAWING
INSIDE OF ME.
OKAY, GUYS,
LET'S GO.
LET'S DIVE
INTO THIS‐‐
WHO MADE THE MOST,
WHO MADE THE LEAST,
AND WHO'S GOING HOME
RIGHT NOW.
IN FIRST PLACE,
WITH A VERY SOLID TOTAL
OF $3,005‐‐
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE.
YAY.
SEOUL SAUSAGE
NEEDS TO WATCH OUT.
NONNA'S HAS PROVED THIS WEEKEND
THAT WE ARE THE TEAM TO BEAT.
WE ARE JUST, LIKE,
ON CLOUD NINE.
NOW IN SECOND PLACE
WITH $2,907‐‐
SEOUL SAUSAGE.
FOR THE RECORD,
THAT'S A $98 DIFFERENCE.
AND LET'S NOT FORGET
THE GIRLS WON $750.
IT ONLY GOES TO SHOW YOU
TRUCK STOPS MATTER.
NOW THE TEAM WITH THE THIRD
BEST TOTAL THIS WEEKEND
IS MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB,
BUT, LADIES,
YOU ARE NOT SAFE.
THERE'S A VERY LARGE MATTER
OF THE LIGHT POST YOU DESTROYED.
THAT LIGHT POST IS GONNA COST
THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE
$1,900.
AND UNDER
NO CIRCUMSTANCES
WILL THE TAXPAYERS BE
ON THE HOOK FOR A PENNY OF IT.
MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB,
THAT MEANS THE BILL
BELONGS TO YOU.
YEAH.
HOWEVER, WE TALKED
TO MAYOR JORDAN
WHO WAS INCREDIBLY GRACIOUS
UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES.
MAYOR JORDAN
HAS AGREED
TO TREAT THIS
AS AN INSURANCE MATTER.
THAT MEANS YOU ARE ONLY
RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEDUCTIBLE.
THAT SAID,
IT'S STILL THE LARGEST PENALTY
IN THE HISTORY OF THIS RACE.
IT'S $250
OUT OF YOUR TILL.
THAT'S A LOT OF MONEY TO LOSE
IN A CLOSE RACE LIKE THIS...
YEAH.
BUT IT'S BETTER THAN LOSING
THE WHOLE $1,900.
ALL RIGHT,
LET'S CONTINUE.
IN THIRD PLACE
WITH $1,936‐‐
POP‐A‐WAFFLE.
ALL RIGHT, GUYS.
CONGRATULATIONS, GUYS.
YOU ARE SAFE.
OKAY, THAT LEAVES
OUR BOTTOM TWO‐‐
MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB
AND COAST OF ATLANTA.
AND, MOMMA'S, YOU GUYS WOULD BE
SAFE AND SOUND RIGHT NOW
IF IT WASN'T
FOR THAT LIGHT POST.
TIFFANY, I KNOW YOU'RE TAKING
THIS REALLY, REALLY HARD.
HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF YOUR
FRIEND'S DREAM ENDED RIGHT NOW
FOR SOMETHING THAT YOU DID
BEHIND THE WHEEL OF A TRUCK?
THERE ARE NO WORDS
AT THIS POINT.
I'VE BEEN WORRYING ABOUT IT
SINCE IT HAPPENED.
THAT'S THE FIRST THINK
THAT CROSSED MY MIND
WHEN I SAW
THAT LIGHT POST FALL.
“OH, NO.
WE'RE GOING HOME.”
I FEEL LIKE HE'S DANGLING
A GLIMMER OF HOPE
AND YET PULLING THE RUG OUT
FROM UNDER ME AT THE SAME TIME.
I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK
AT THIS POINT.
OKAY, GUYS, A TEAM GOES HOME
RIGHT NOW.
I WANT TO STAY
IN THIS RACE SO BAD.
WE'RE FINALLY GETTING
THE HANG OF IT.
I CAN'T HANDLE THIS.
IN FOURTH PLACE...
BY A MARGIN OF $24...
ESSENTIALLY ONE TICKET,
MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB.
COAST OF ATLANTA'S GOING HOME,
AND WE'RE STAYING.
THIS IS NOTHING SHORT
OF A MIRACLE.
COAST OF ATLANTA,
I AM VERY, VERY SORRY.
YOU MADE $1,818.
THERE'S NO DOUBT
YOU CAN COOK.
SO NOW IT'S TIME
TO GO BACK TO ATLANTA
AND TAKE IT
TO THE NEXT LEVEL.
RIGHT NOW,
I NEED YOUR KEYS.
EVERYBODY, PLEASE GIVE
COAST OF ATLANTA
A ROUND OF APPLAUSE.
IT HURTS
WE WERE ELIMINATED.
IT'S STILL NOT GONNA STOP ME
FROM PURSUING MY DREAMS
OF OWNING A FOOD TRUCK.
I'M GONNA KEEP ON KEEPING ON.
GUYS, THIS IS WHERE
IT GETS REAL.
YOU ARE THE FINAL FOUR.
ONE OF YOU IS GONNA WIN
YOUR VERY OWN FOOD TRUCK
AND $50,000.
OKAY, FINAL FOUR,
SO ARE YOU GUYS READY
TO FIND OUT WHERE WE'RE GOING?
IT'S A SHORT 530 MILES DUE EAST
OF HERE‐‐
MUSIC CITY,
NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE.
OUR POP‐A‐WAFFLE BAND
IS TUNED UP
AND READY TO TAKE ON MUSIC CITY.
WE'RE READY FOR THE FOOD TRUCK
CHALLENGE OF OUR LIVES.
LET'S GET IN THE TRUCKS
AND LET'S GET ROLLING!
NEXT TIME ON
“THE GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE”...
THIS COMPETITION JUST GOT CRAZY,
AND SO DID I.
YEAH.
WE ARE OPEN
FOR BUSINESS, GUYS.
THAT'S A SEOUL SAUSAGE LINE
THAT THEY USED TO HAVE.
I'M SO PISSED OFF.
CAN WE SERVE YOU
SOME FOOD?
WAFFLES.
OKAY, LET'S RESET, OKAY?
OKAY?
WAFFLES.
OKAY, LET'S RESET, OKAY?
OKAY?
LET'S DO IT.
I NEED SOMEBODY
BEHIND ME.
“THE GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE”...
EIGHT TEAMS
OF FOOD TRUCK ROOKIES
AND THEIR DREAM TRUCKS...
BEGAN THE THIRD
GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE...
BEGAN THE THIRD
GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE...
IN LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA.
LOS ANGELES, HERE WE COME!
HELLO, BUSINESS.
THE TEAMS SOLD FURIOUSLY
IN LOS ANGELES...
TASTE OF ALASKA
RIGHT HERE IN HOLLYWOOD!
FLAGSTAFF, ARIZONA... IT'S $5.
AND AMARILLO, TEXAS...
WE'RE OPEN DOWN HERE!
HOT WINGS!
BUT THE KOREAN SEOUL SAUSAGE
TRUCKEMERGED VICTORIOUS...
SEOUL SAUSAGE.
SEOUL SAUSAGE.
SEOUL SAUSAGE.
ALL THREE TIMES.
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE
AND MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB
HAVE FOUGHT TOOTH AND NAIL
TO KEEP PACE...
I NEED 20 GRILLED CHEESE.
BUT THEY FOUGHT EVEN HARDER
WITH ONE ANOTHER.
SHE APPROACHES ME, HER HEAD'S
GONNA BE IN THE CEMENT.
WE'RE ALMOST DONE
WITH CHICKEN.
POP‐A‐WAFFLE CHEF ANTHONY
HAS KEPT HIS TEAM ALIVE
WITH PURE COOKING SKILL...
IT HAD A REAL, REAL
TRUE BALANCE OF FLAVOR.
WHILE THE THREE SEAFOOD CHEFS
OF COAST OF ATLANTA
HAVE BARELY MANAGED
TO STAY AFLOAT.
FRIED CATFISH.
NOW THE RACE COMES HERE‐‐
FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS.
FIVE TRUCKS REMAIN
BUT NOT FOR LONG.
WHO WILL GO HOME NEXT?
I'M TYLER FLORENCE, AND THIS IS
“THE GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE.”
LET'S GET ROLLING.
FOOD TRUCK ROAD TRIP!

Closed Captioning Services, Inc.
I THINK FAYETTEVILLE
ISN'T AS LARGE OF A TOWN
AS AMARILLO WAS.
WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO PAY
EXTRA ATTENTION, I THINK,
TO OUR CUSTOMER SERVICE.
THAT WAS DEFINITELY
A KEY FOR US IN AMARILLO.
PEOPLE THOUGHT
WE WERE FUN AND WACKY,
AND THEY LOVED OUR FOOD.
THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I ENVISIONED
MY FOOD TRUCK DREAMS
TO COME TRUE.
WE'RE TIRED. WE'RE EXHAUSTED.
BUT IT'S THE BEST KIND
OF EXHAUSTED YOU CAN BE.
IT'S A NEW CITY. IT'S A NEW DAY.
WE'RE READY TO ROCK IT.
LAST WEEK WAS
REALLY, REALLY CLOSE, MAN.
WE ABSOLUTELY CANNOT
BE IN THE BOTTOM TWO
THIS WEEK.
WE CAME INTO THIS GAME
BEING COMPLETE NOVICES
WHEN IT COMES TO FOOD TRUCKS.
BUT AFTER THIS EXPERIENCE,
I KNOW 100% THAT SIMPLICITY
IN YOUR MENU IS A BIG THING.
I THINK WE DID PRETTY WELL
WITH OUR FISH BASKET LAST WEEK
SO I THINK WE SHOULD PROBABLY
STAY ON THE SAME TRACK.
THE MENU‐‐
WHAT DO YOU THINK, DUDE?
THEY LOVE
THEIR RAZORBACKS,
SO MAYBE WE SHOULD DO
A RAZORBACK SPECIAL.
WE'LL CALL IT
THE RAZORBACK BURGER...
THE RAZORBACK?
KOREAN BARBECUE‐INSPIRED
HAMBURGER.
I WANT TO WIN THIS FOOD TRUCK.
I WANT TO WIN THIS $50,000.
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY,
I WANT TO DO IT FOR MY PARENTS.
I CAN BE THE POOREST MAN
IN THE WORLD,
THE RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD.
IT DOESN'T MATTER
AS LONG AS THEY'RE PROUD OF ME.
I THINK WE SHOULD KEEP
THE BURGER AT $7
AND JUST RAISE
THE BALLS.
2 FOR $8, PERFECT.
HEY, LIS, LOOK. IT'S LIKE HOME.
THERE'S TREES.
IT'S NOT
THE DESERT ANYMORE.
EVERY SINGLE WEEK THIS
COMPETITION BECOMES MORE REAL,
AND I THINK EVERY TEAM
WANTS IT MORE,
BUT BEING THREE ITALIAN GIRLS
FROM NEW JERSEY
WITH LESS EXPERIENCE
THAN ANY OF THESE TEAMS,
WE'VE NEVER WANTED SOMETHING
SO BAD.
WE CAN DO
THE QUICK‐AND‐EASY THING.
WE CAN DO
PESTO CHICKEN QUESADILLA.
YEAH, A PESTO CHICKEN
QUESADILLA,
AND THAT WOULD BE
QUICK AND EASY.
SO MEATBALLS, QUESADILLAS,
DOUGHNUTS, AND ROOT BEER FLOATS.
DO YOU THINK THE TACOS
ARE GONNA GO OVER AS WELL HERE?
I MEAN, WE'RE NOT
IN TEXAS ANYMORE.
YEAH, BUT WE'RE IN
A COLLEGE TOWN.
YEAH.
WHAT COLLEGE KIDS
DON'T LIKE TACOS?
THIS WHOLE PROCESS
HAS BEEN MORE CHALLENGING
THAN WHAT WE EXPECTED.
IN ALASKA, THERE'S ONLY
SO MANY PLACES TO GO,
AND IT'S VERY STRAIGHTFORWARD.
THE COOKING PORTION
AND SELLING TO PEOPLE
WHEN THEY WALK UP TO THE WINDOW,
THAT'S THE EASY PART.
ARE WE GONNA DO ANYTHING NEW
ON THE MENU?
I MEAN, I DON'T THINK
WE CAN JUST DO TACOS.
I COULD DO
A TERIYAKI ONE ALSO...
YEAH.
IF WE WANT TO HAVE
A LITTLE BIT MORE VARIETY.
GUYS, WELCOME TO
FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS!
YES!
GUYS, YOU ARE MORE THAN HALFWAY
ACROSS THE COUNTRY
AND ONE STEP CLOSER TO WINNING
YOUR VERY OWN FOOD TRUCK
AND $50,000.
YES! WHOO‐HOO!
WHOO!
I COULDN'T BE MORE PROUD OF YOU
RIGHT NOW.
THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THE FIVE
TEAMS STANDING IN FRONT OF ME
ARE LEGITIMATE CONTENDERS
IN THE GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE.
THERE'S FIVE TEAMS LEFT
IN THIS RACE.
IT'S VERY, VERY INTENSE.
WE'VE BEEN HAVING ORGANIZATION
ISSUES FROM THE BEGINNING.
IF WE CAN'T GET THAT
FIGURED OUT,
WE'RE GOING HOME.
IN SOME PLACES,
A LOVELY DOWNTOWN
OR AN HISTORIC LANDMARK
WILL GIVE A CITY AN IDENTITY.
IN FAYETTEVILLE,
IT'S THIS BUILDING.
GUYS, YOU ARE NOW
ON THE PLAYING FIELD
AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS'
RAZORBACK STADIUM.
MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT.
YOU ARE IN A COLLEGE TOWN.
THAT MEANS YOU ALL
HAVE TO PLAN ACCORDINGLY.
YOUR PRICES, YOUR MENU,
AND YOUR STRATEGY
NEED TO REFLECT
WHERE YOU ARE.
THERE'S A LOT OF HUNGRY FOLKS
IN THIS TOWN.
WE KNOW THAT WE CAN ATTRACT ‘EM.
WE KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK
IN AMARILLO
WITH CHICKEN AND WAFFLES.
THAT IS A HOME RUN
AND A TOUCHDOWN
AND ALL THE ABOVE.
AND I'M SURE I DON'T HAVE
TO REMIND YOU,
BUT ONE OF YOU WILL BE MAKING
THE LONG, LONELY TRIP HOME
AT THE END OF THE WEEKEND.
SO, GUYS, WE'RE JUST GONNA
GET DOWN TO IT.
HOW MUCH SEED MONEY DO YOU THINK
YOU'RE GETTING THIS WEEK?
IT'S $300.
$300 IS NOT A TON OF MONEY,
BUT I THINK IT'S ENOUGH.
WE'RE IN A SMALL TOWN.
I WANT TO KEEP MY PRICES LOW.
SO I THINK THAT WE CAN DO REALLY
WELL WITH IT IN THIS CITY.
AND REMEMBER, GUYS,
IT'S A COLLEGE TOWN.
EVERYBODY HERE IS ON A BUDGET.
SO WHY NOT YOU?
OH, AND ONE MORE THING,
I'VE GOT AN EPIC
TRUCK STOP COOKING CHALLENGE
IN STORE FOR YOU
AND A SPEED BUMP
THAT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND,
SO I'M ADDING 24 HOURS
TO THE WEEKEND.
YOU’LL UNDERSTAND WHY
WHEN THE TIME COMES.
HEY, I TOLD YOU THE RACE
WAS GONNA GET MORE INTENSE.
WELCOME TO THE TOP FIVE.
IF YOU'RE GONNA MOVE ON,
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO EARN IT.
ALL RIGHT, FAYETTEVILLE'S
OUT THERE WAITING.
LET'S GET ROLLING!
GUYS, WE'RE PROBABLY
GONNA FIND CHICKEN FIRST.
- IT'S RIGHT HERE.
- CHICKEN'S RIGHT HERE.
IT'S BEEN A WINNING COMBINATION
TO DO A PROTEIN WAFFLE
WITH EITHER A FAJITA WAFFLE
OR THE CHICKEN WAFFLE,
AND OF COURSE, EVERYONE LOVES
A GOOD CLASSIC WAFFLE
WITH FRUIT.
$16.
ALL RIGHT, WHERE'S THE FISH?
TILAPIA.
WE DECIDED TO GO
WITH TILAPIA THIS WEEK
INSTEAD OF THE CATFISH,
BECAUSE CATFISH
IS JUST WAY TOO EXPENSIVE.
GET OUR LOGS OF BEEF.
I'M GONNA GO PLACE
THE ORDER FOR THE DOUGH,
AND I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
MAKE SURE
IT'S THE BALLS.
NO GROUND PORK?
NO GROUND CHICKEN?
NO. NO.
BUT THEN THEY HAVE
TURKEY, YES?
YEP.
SO WE'RE GONNA DO
THE ROTISSERIE CHICKEN
INSTEAD OF
COOKING OUR CHICKEN?
YES. PREP TIME
WILL BE LESS.
GOOD LUCK, LADIES.
THANKS.
WE'VE GOT, WHAT, $12 LEFT OUT
OF $300? SOMETHING LIKE THAT?
SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
NOT MUCH.
NOT LEAVING A BUFFER
AND SPENDING ALL THAT MONEY
ON CHICKEN, I DON'T KNOW
IF IT WAS THE BEST THING OR NOT.
- I JUST HOPE WE HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN ANYTHING.
- MOM, LET'S GO.
WHERE ARE WE GONNA GO?
IT LOOKS LIKE DICKSON
IS THE HOTTEST HUB
AROUND FAYETTEVILLE.
WE'RE GONNA GO DOWNTOWN
TO DICKSON STREET.
IT IS NEAR THE COLLEGE,
AND THERE'S LOTS
OF FOOT TRAFFIC.
WHERE DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD GO?
DICKSON STREET?
- DICKSON'S BUSY, BUT IT'S NOT GONNA BE BUSY UNTIL LATER...
- AHH.
‘CAUSE EVERYONE'S GONNA GO OUT
AT NIGHT FOR DRINKING.
I SEE.
THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW.
THE POP‐A‐WAFFLE TEAM
IS ALL ABOUT MAKING IT WORK
IN THE MOMENT.
PLENTY OF ROOM,
PLENTY.
I KNOW THIS PLAN DIDN'T REALLY
WORK FOR US IN FLAGSTAFF,
BUT I FIGURED WE'VE GIVE IT
ANOTHER SHOT.
IT'LL BE READY IN
ABOUT 15 MINUTES, OKAY, MAN?
DUDE,
THAT'S RECORD TIME FOR US.I KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW,
BUT I HAVE A REALLY GOOD FEELING
ABOUT THIS WEEKEND.
IT SEEMS LIKE WE'RE GONNA FIND
A LOT OF FOOT TRAFFIC
ON DICKSON.
WE'RE ON A REALLY GOOD SIDE
OF THE STREET,
WHICH IS THE BAR SIDE.I KNOW.
DO YOU SEE EVERYONE THAT'S
JUST WALKING PAST US RIGHT NOW?
YEAH.
WE ARE READY
TO START COOKING AND SELLING
AND MAKING SOME MONEY
THIS WEEKEND.
WE'LL BE OPEN
IN JUST A LITTLE BIT.
IF YOU COULD JUST HANG TIGHT,
THAT WOULD BE GREAT.
THIS LOOKS LIKE A BAR
OR SOMETHING.
WHEN THEY COME OUT DRUNK, THEY
CAN COME RIGHT IN OUR TRUCK.
WE'VE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS
WITH OUR LOCATIONS
THE PAST FEW WEEKS.
FINALLY WE GOT A GREAT SPOT
IN FRONT OF A BAR.
I THINK WE'RE GONNA GET
SOME PRETTY GOOD SALES TONIGHT.
FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS,
LET'S GET IT. AH.
WE'RE KEEPING OUR MENU SIMPLE
WITH GREAT FISH BASKETS
AND OUR FAMOUS BUBBLING
BROWN SUGAR PEACH LEMONADE.
THANK YOU.
WHAT'S UP, GUYS?
THIS IS
GROUND TURKEY.
WE'RE GONNA SPICE IT UP
THE SAME WAY WE DID OUR PORK.
WE NEVER KNEW THAT THE FRIED
BALLS WOULD BE SO TASTY.
DEEP‐FRYING THAT BAD BOY
AND ADDING THAT D. M. D. SAUCE
TO IT‐‐
OOH, IT'S ACTUALLY
REALLY, REALLY GOOD.
FAYETTEVILLE,
HERE WE GO.
TWO BALLS.
TWO BALLS
AND A BURGER.
TWO BALLS
AND A BURGER!
FIVE BALLS.
FIVE BALLS!
OH, MAN.
WHAT'S WRONG?
THEY'RE OPEN.
THEY HAVE A LINE
AND PRETTY GOOD ONE. OKAY.
TIFFANY'S FREAKING OUT
A LITTLE BIT.
SEOUL SAUSAGE OPENED THEIR DOORS
BEFORE US.
I DON'T CARE WHAT
THE OTHER TEAMS ARE DOING.
WE NEED TO FOCUS
ON WHAT WE ARE DOING,
FINISHED GETTING PREPPED
SO THAT WE CAN GET OPEN.
DID WE GET TORTILLAS?
NO.
HOW DID THEY NOT
MAKE OUR LIST?
HOW DID THEY NOT
MAKE YOUR LIST?
I ASKED YOU BOTH TO LOOK
AT THAT LIST. I'M SURE OF IT.
YOU DIDN'T ASK ME.
NO WAY.
OH, I THINK I DID.
IT'S A LITTLE DIFFICULT
TO SELL A TACO
WITHOUT A TORTILLA TO PUT IT IN.
WHAT'S OUR PLAN?
ARE WE GONNA PREP EVERYTHING
AND THEN RUN AND GET ‘EM? YEAH.
MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING
NOT TOO FAR FROM HERE.
THIS WHOLE COMPETITION
IS BASED ON SALES,
AND RIGHT NOW THEY'VE GOT SALES,
WE DON'T.
WE HAVE GOT TO MAKE SOME MONEY.
SO OUR FIVE REMAINING TEAMS
HAVE GOTTEN REALLY GOOD
AT THE FOOD TRUCK GAME‐‐
LUNCHES, DINNERS,
DONE AND DOWN PAT,
BUT I'M NOT GONNA GIVE AWAY
A FOOD TRUCK PLUS $50,000
TO A TEAM
THAT'S NOT WELL‐ROUNDED.
I NEED TO MAKE SURE THESE GUYS
CAN COOK AT ANY HOUR OF THE DAY.
HELLO?
HEY, GUYS, IT'S TYLER.
I'M NOT HAPPY TO HEAR FROM YOU,
TYLER. WHAT'S UP?
GUYS, IT'S TIME
FOR YOUR TRUCK STOP,
AND I MEAN THAT LITERALLY.
TIME FOR
OUR TRUCK STOP.
STOP, SHUT YOUR TRUCK DOWN
RIGHT NOW.
SHUT DOWN THE TRUCK?
WHAT?
I mean it.
Stop what you're doing.
You've made your last sell.
WE'RE DONE
FOR THE NIGHT.
WE HAVE MADE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
TODAY. THAT'S AWESOME.
WHAT ELSE, TYLER?
YOU GUYS ARE DONE FOR THE NIGHT,
because you'll be getting up
before the crack of dawn.
WE GOT TO BE UP
AND EARLY.
I'M GIVING YOU
A BREAKFAST CHALLENGE.
BREAKFAST CHALLENGE?
WHOO, CHILD!
Guys, this challenge is
all about a secret ingredient.
BUT YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO WAIT
TILL TOMORROW MORNING
TO FIND OUT WHAT IT IS.
THIS SUCKS, MAN.
SO CALL IT A DAY
AND GET SOME REST,
BECAUSE THIS THING
IS GOING OFF EARLY.
WE NEED
TO GO TO BED NOW.
WHOO. OKAY.
THAT'S IT, GUYS.
SWEET DREAMS.
WE FINALLY GOT THE HOT SPOT,
AND WE GOT TO GO.I KNOW.
OH, MY GOSH. IF WE
DON'T MAKE IT TO THE NEXT CITY
WITH A BREAKFAST CHALLENGE
IN FRONT OF US,
I WOULD FALL OVER DEAD.
REALLY SORRY. TYLER JUST SHUT US
DOWN FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT.
I'M NOT HAPPY.
THIS IS THE WORST POSSIBLE WAY
TO START OUR WEEKEND.
WE HAVEN'T EVEN SOLD
ANYTHING YET.
WE HAVE MADE ZERO.
COMING UP ON
“THE GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE”...
OH, WAIT.
STOP, STOP, STOP, STOP, STOP.
I AM REQUIRING YOU
to use a classic American
product in your dish.
- STRAIGHTEN OUT.
- YOU'RE GONNA GET RUN OVER, NAME OF THE GAME.
GOOD MORNING,
IT'S TIME FOR BREAKFAST!
IT'S EARLY MORNING ON DAY TWO
IN FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS...
- DAMN, DUDE.
- 5:00 A. M.
AND OUR FIVE TEAMS ARE HEADED
TO A LOCAL STORAGE FACILITY
WHERE THEIR FOOD TRUCKS
HAVE BEEN PARKED OVERNIGHT.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN
A BREAKFAST CHALLENGE
ON “THE FOOD TRUCK RACE.”
THE TEAMS ALL KNOW
THEY'RE ABOUT TO HAVE
A BREAKFAST
COOKING CHALLENGE...
I CAN MAKE SOMETHING
OUT OF ANYTHING.
AND THEY ALSO KNOW
THEY'LL HAVE TO WORK
WITH A MYSTERY INGREDIENT.
I THINK IT'S GONNA BE SOMETHING
THAT'S ABSOLUTELY WEIRD...
NO, IT'S GONNA BE‐‐
THAT WOULDN'T INCORPORATE
IN YOUR BREAKFAST.
THE QUESTION IS, WHAT IS IT?
HERE WE ARE.
LET THE DAY BEGIN.
WELL, THEY'RE ABOUT
TO FIND OUT.
GOOD MORNING, TRUCK.
WE'RE HERE FOR YOU.
JEREMY, I AM SO GLAD
YOU'RE HERE, MAN.
ARE YOU READY
FOR A FUN CHALLENGE TODAY?
YEAH, DEFINITELY.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S DO THIS.
HERE WE GO.
HELLO?
GOOD MORNING.
IT'S TYLER.
GOOD MORNING, TYLER.
I hope you're bright‐eyed
and bushy‐tailed,
BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA BE COOKING
SOME BREAKFAST.
TO WHO?
THERE'S NOBODY TO COOK FOR HERE.
Here's the thing.
SINCE WE'RE IN A CLASSIC
AMERICAN COLLEGE TOWN,
I am requiring you
to use a classic American
product in your dish.
PUT, LIKE, A CLASSIC
AMERICAN PRODUCT IN OUR DISH.
IT'S A BREAKFAST STAPLE
THAT'S PROBABLY FOUND
in every single dorm room
here
in the University of Arkansas.
IT'S KELLOGG'S POP‐TARTS. WHAT?
POP‐TARTS?
THAT SOUNDS AWESOME.
WE GOT
TO USE POP‐TARTS.
WE GOT
TO USE POP‐TARTS?
NOW SINCE MOST TEENAGERS
THAT I KNOW OF
WOULD DO ANYTHING
FOR A POP‐TART,
I THINK IT'S APPROPRIATE THAT
YOUR JUDGE TODAY BE A TEENAGER.
OUR JUDGE IS GOING TO BE
A TEENAGER.
It just so happens
that this teen
IS AN ACCOMPLISHED CHEF
IN HIS OWN RIGHT.
HE'S ALREADY WORKED WITH SOME
PRETTY ACCOMPLISHED PEOPLE
LIKE MICHELLE BERNSTEIN,
ART SMITH, TODD ENGLISH,
AND HE'S EVEN BEEN ON SET
for a little cooking show
called “Tyler's Ultimate.”
A TEEN THAT'S WORKED
WITH ACCLAIMED CHEFS.
THAT IS AWESOME.
So since this town bleeds red
for the Razorbacks,
I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE FITTING
TO GIVE YOU
the classic red Strawberry
flavor to work with...
STRAWBERRY‐FLAVORED.
AND YOU'VE GOT A SURPRISE FLAVOR
JUST TO KEEP THINGS INTERESTING.
AND ONE SURPRISE.
SO THERE YOU HAVE IT.
YOUR POP‐TARTS ARE
ON YOUR TRUCK WAITING FOR YOU.
If you come up
with the winning dish,
YOU'RE GONNA RECEIVE
A TOKEN WORTH $750
IN YOUR TILL.
WHOO‐WHEE.
ALL RIGHT, GUYS, THAT'S IT.
GOOD LUCK.
THANKS, TYLER.
BYE‐BYE.
AWESOME. THANKS, MAN.
WHAT?!
POP‐TART MAGIC.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
POP‐A‐WAFFLE, POP‐A‐TART‐‐
THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER
FOR THE POP‐A‐WAFFLE TEAM.
THIS IS A PERFECT FLAVOR
COMBINATION FOR OUR WAFFLES.
COULD WE TAKE
ONE OF THE STRAWBERRIES
AND CHOP IT UP REALLY FINE
AND PUT IT IN THE BATTER
AND MAKE
A STRAWBERRY POP‐TART WAFFLE?
POSSIBLY.
STRAWBERRY AND CHOCOLATE FUDGE.
THIS IS FUN.
FUN!
WE CAN CRUSH THIS UP
INTO PIECES AND DIP IT IN IT
AND THEN DO IT
AS ITALIAN FRENCH TOAST.
WE'LL JUST HAVE TO SEE HOW
IT'S GONNA WORK ON THE FRYER.
IF WE TAKE THEM APART,
USE THE BOTTOM
AS A BASE...
MAYBE USE
THAT FILLING.
AND USE THE FILLING
AND WITH THE CREAM CHEESE.
YEAH,
WITH THE CREAM CHEESE.
WE'RE GONNA DO A PLAY
ON A NAPOLEON.
WE GOT BLUEBERRY
AND STRAWBERRY.
WE'VE GOT CREAM CHEESE
IN THE TRUCK ALREADY,
AND I THINK IF WE CAN FLAVOR
THE CREAM CHEESE
WITH THE FILLING
FROM THE POP‐TART
THAT IT'LL KIND OF TRANSFORM IT
AND YET USE ALL THE DIFFERENT
PIECES IN A DIFFERENT WAY.
HERE THEY ARE IN A BOX.
HE WAS SERIOUS.
LOOK AT THAT.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
I HAVE NO FREAKING CLUE
RIGHT NOW.
I AM LITERALLY STUMPED.
WHAT THE HELL ARE WE GONNA DO
WITH POP‐TARTS AND FISH?
WE'VE GOT TO COME UP
WITH SOME KIND OF PLAN
TO MAKE A TASTY DISH USING WHAT
WE ALREADY HAVE ON THE TRUCK.
I THINK IF WE REPURPOSE
THE POP‐TART,
BREAK IT DOWN,
CHOP IT UP,
GET SOME NICE
CRISPY POTATOES.
TOSS ‘EM TOGETHER, I THINK IT'D
BE A GOOD FLAVOR COMBINATION.
OH, MY GOSH.
THIS IS
GONNA BE A LONG DAY.
CAN WE EAT ONE RIGHT NOW?
IT'S LIKE, MWAH, MWAH.
POP‐TARTS AREN'T REALLY
A TRADITIONAL
KOREAN BREAKFAST STAPLE,
SO I'M GONNA HAVE TO GET
PRETTY CREATIVE
WITH WHAT I'M GONNA DO
FOR BREAKFAST.
WE'LL DO A BREAKFAST
FRENCH TOAST SANDWICH.
YEAH! I LIKE THAT.
I'M JUST GONNA DO A POP‐TART‐
ENCRUSTED FRENCH TOAST,
AND I'M GONNA SANDWICH IT
BETWEEN CREAM CHEESE,
KOREAN SPICED BACON, AND TOP
THAT SUCKER WITH A FRIED EGG.
THAT WAS $1?
THIS WOULD BE $10.60.
WE'VE ONLY GOT $16.
I KNOW WE NEED CORN TORTILLAS.
AND BECAUSE OF WHAT WE'VE
DECIDED TO DO WITH THE POP‐TARTS
WE NEED A BUCKET
OF WHIPPED TOPPING.
WE DON'T EVEN HAVE A $1 LEFT
AFTER THIS.
$15.40, SWEETHEART.
I HOPE THIS WORKS, ‘CAUSE WE DO
NOT HAVE A SAFETY NET THIS TIME.
THANK YOU.
IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S
A FARMERS' MARKET IN TOWN.
THAT WOULD BE AMAZING.
YEAH, IT IS HERE.
LET ME JUST, UM,
I'M GONNA LOOK IT UP.
HI, WE'RE IN TOWN FOR A FOOD
COMPETITION WITH OUR FOOD TRUCK,
AND WE'LL PUT THE TOP TWO TRUCKS
IF YOU'LL LET US COME IN.
OKAY, GREAT.
THERE'S TWO TEAMS IN THIS RACE
THAT I THINK ARE THE TOP TWO.
IT'S NONNA'S
AND IT'S SEOUL SAUSAGE.
AT THIS POINT IN THE RACE,
I THINK THE SMARTEST THING
WE CAN DO
IS PARTNER WITH SEOUL SAUSAGE
BECAUSE WE'RE GONNA ATTRACT
THE BIGGEST CROWDS.
WHAT'S UP?
I JUST TALKED TO THE LADY
AT THE FARMERS' MARKET IN TOWN.
It's this huge
farmers' market
THAT GOES ON
IN DOWNTOWN FAYETTEVILLE.
WOULD YOU GUYS BE INTERESTED
IN COMING WITH US?
WE WOULD LOVE
TO DO THAT.
AWESOME.
HI, THERE.
MY NAME IS SCOTT,
AND I AM CALLING FROM
A BREAKFAST FOOD TRUCK
CALLED POP‐A‐WAFFLE,
AND WE WONDERED
IF THERE MIGHT BE SOME SPACE
IN YOUR FARMERS' MARKET.
THAT'S TOTALLY FINE
WITH US.
THAT'S GREAT NEWS. BYE.
♪ WAFFLE LOVE
IN THE HOUSE WAFFLE LOVE
OH, GET READY
FOR SOME WAFFLES.
HI, MY NAME IS LENA.
I'M CALLING FROM
COAST OF ATLANTA FOOD TRUCK.
WE WANTED TO KNOW IF WE CAN COME
PARK AT THE FARMERS' MARKET.
OH, OKAY. THANK YOU.
BYE‐BYE.
DID WE GET A PLAN B?
SEE IF THERE'S SOMETHING
BY THE FARMERS' MARKET,
LIKE ON THE OUTSKIRTS,
WHERE WE CAN PARK.
WE CAN'T SET UP
IN THE FARMERS' MARKET,
BUT WE SURE CAN SET UP
AROUND IT.
OKAY.
EVEN THOUGH WE CAN'T PARK
INSIDE THE FARMERS' MARKET,
WE SHOULD BE ABLE
TO GET REALLY CLOSE.
THERE'S A SPOT
RIGHT THERE.
KEEP GOING.
OKAY, GOOD. OKAY, ONE SEC.
- I'M GOOD, RIGHT?
- IT MIGHT HAVE TO GO FORWARD A LITTLE
JUST BECAUSE THERE'S A GIANT
LIGHT POLE RIGHT HERE.
OH, WAIT.
STOP, STOP, STOP, STOP, STOP.
OH, OH.
- GOOD MORNING, FAYETTEVILLE.
- GOOD MORNING!
IT'S SUNDAY MORNING
IN FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS,
AND THE TEAMS ARE GEARING UP
FOR THEIR FIRST‐EVER
BREAKFAST SERVICE...
A CHICKEN WAFFLE
AND A BOTTLE OF WATER.
FOR THEIR FIRST‐EVER
BREAKFAST SERVICE...
A CHICKEN WAFFLE
AND A BOTTLE OF WATER.
AND PREPARING A SPECIAL
THAT COULD EARN THEM
A HUGE ADVANTAGE.
WE ARE COOKING
WITH POP‐TARTS TODAY.
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE,
SEOUL SAUSAGE,
AND POP‐A‐WAFFLE
ALL HAVE PRIME SPOTS INSIDE
THE LOCAL FARMERS' MARKET...
ARE YOU READY
FOR SOME WAFFLES?!
BUT COAST OF ATLANTA
IS ON THE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN.
READY TO MAKE SOME BREAKFAST?
ALL RIGHT, LET'S DO IT.
MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB
IS ALSO SHUT OUT
OF THE FARMERS' MARKET ACTION,
BUT THEY HAVE A MUCH BIGGER
PROBLEM TO WORRY ABOUT.
THEY'RE ABOUT
TO GET A GIANT BILL
FOR THE DAMAGED LIGHT POST,
AND IT'S COMING
OUT OF THEIR TILL.
ADRIANE, HANG ON.
HANG ON.
WHAT?
THERE IS ELECTRICAL
THAT IS LIVE THERE.
YOU ARE NOT
GONNA DO ANYTHING WITH IT.
I'M DEVASTATED.
WE WORKED SO HARD
TO GET WHERE WE ARE.
WE'RE PURSUING
SOMETHING BIG HERE.
IF THIS IS GONNA BE
TAKEN CARE OF OUT OF OUR TILL,
THERE'S NO POSSIBLE WAY
THAT WE'RE STAYING.
WE'RE DONE.
YOU KNOW, IT'S‐‐
THIS IS REALLY BAD.
I'M JUST TRYING TO STAY CALM,
CLEANING UP THE MESS.
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT,
AND YOU KNOW,
IT WAS UNFORTUNATE.
I'M MAYOR JORDAN.
NICE TO MEET YOU,
MAYOR JORDAN.
YEAH, THERE'S
BROKEN GLASS THERE.
WE'LL GET IT ALL CLEANED UP.
IT'LL BE ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT?
OKAY.
ARE WE OKAY TO STILL PARK HERE
AND SELL HERE?
YEAH.
WE'RE ALL RIGHT?
IF THERE'S ANY CHANCE
OF US STAYING,
WE CAN'T JUST STAND AROUND.
WE'RE GONNA SERVE PEOPLE.
WE'RE GONNA HAVE
A GOOD TIME THIS WEEKEND.
WE'RE JUST GONNA MAKE IT HAPPEN.
YOU KNOW,
THIS TRAFFIC SIGN
ACTUALLY MAKES IT
A BIG OLD EVENT OUT HERE.
I CAN HELP ANYBODY
THAT NEEDS TO BE HELPED.
THIS IS THE PERFECT
CHALLENGE FOR US, BECAUSE
WE'RE BLENDING OUR NONNA'S
FAMOUS ITALIAN FRENCH TOAST
WITH A CHILDHOOD FAVORITE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
ANOTHER STRAWBERRY UP!
WE ARE DOING A VANILLA CINNAMON‐
BATTERED FRENCH TOAST
- I NEED THE STRAWBERRY.
- CRUSTED IN
EITHER STRAWBERRY POP‐TARTS
OR CHOCOLATE FUDGE POP‐TARTS.
WE COOK IT ON THE FLATTOP
SO THE POP‐TARTS
MELT INTO THE FRENCH TOAST,
AND THEN WE SERVE IT
WITH A DOLLOP
OF MASCARPONE WHIPPED CREAM.
ONE STRAWBERRY, RIGHT?
THANK YOU.
I'M DETERMINED TO WIN
THIS CHALLENGE,
‘CAUSE IT IS
A BREAKFAST CHALLENGE,
AND WE CAN BE PERCEIVED
AS A BREAKFAST TRUCK.
MY MIND
JUST WENT DIRECTLY TOWARD
INCORPORATING THE POP‐TARTS
DIRECTLY INTO OUR WAFFLE BATTER.
I CAN TASTE THE FROSTING
IN IT... MM‐HMM.
AND THE STRAWBERRY BITS.
I MACERATED SOME BERRIES.
I ALSO INCORPORATED
CONFECTIONERS' SUGAR ICING
TO TOP IT OFF.
10 OUT OF 10.
CAN I DO THE SPECIAL‐‐
THE HASH?
ALL RIGHT, YOU WANT
TO TRY OUR POP‐TART HASH?
YES.
ONE BREAKFAST HASH.
ONE HASH.
I FEEL REALLY GOOD THAT
THE POP‐TART HASH IS SELLING.
PEOPLE REALLY SEEM TO ENJOY IT,
THE SAVORY WITH THE SWEET
AND THE SPICY,
AND BACON MAKES
EVERYTHING BETTER.
ALL RIGHT,
HERE'S YOUR POP‐TART HASH.
THANK YOU.
APPRECIATE IT.
PEOPLE LOVING IT. GO AHEAD,
MIKE. YOU DID SOMETHING.
I'M CUTTING UP
SOME POP‐TARTS.
WE'RE GONNA TOAST ‘EM
IN SOME BUTTER
SO THEY GET A NICE BUTTERY CRISP
ON THE BOTTOM...
YEAH.
AND THEN WE'RE GONNA KIND OF
MAKE A NAPOLEON OUT OF IT,
LAYERED.
I'VE GOT A BLUEBERRY POP‐TART
ON THE BOTTOM.
THEN WE'VE GOT THIS CREAM CHEESE
AND WHIPPED TOPPING MIXTURE
WITH LEMON JUICE IN IT,
STRAWBERRY POP‐TART ON THE TOP,
THEN THE FRESH STRAWBERRIES,
AND THE CRUMBLE ON THE TOP
IS THE OUTSIDE OF THE POP‐TARTS.
THERE'S OUR POP‐TART
BREAKFAST DISH.
FUNNY, I OWE YOU $1.
CRUMBLE THEM ALL.
YOU WANT THEM SEPARATED?
NO, TOGETHER.
THE ONLY KIND OF COOKING
I REALLY DID WITH POP‐TARTS
IS TO THROW ’EM
INTO A TOASTER OVEN,
SO THERE'S DEFINITELY GONNA BE
SOME SEOUL IN THIS THIS TIME.
IT'S ONE THING TO COME UP
WITH A GREAT IDEA.
IT'S ANOTHER THING
TO EXECUTE IT.
I'VE NEVER MADE
A POP‐TART‐ENCRUSTED
FRENCH TOAST SANDWICH BEFORE.
SO I'M REALLY CONCENTRATING
RIGHT NOW.
I'M PUTTING BACON
ON THE BREAD.
HE CARAMELIZED THE BACON
WITH BROWN SUGAR AND KIMCHI.
SOME CREAM CHEESE,
SOME FRIED EGG ON TOP.
THIS HAS SOME SERIOUS SEOUL
IN IT.
WE'RE DOING
ITALIAN FRENCH TOAST
TOPPED WITH
MASCARPONE WHIPPED CREAM.
I'M RUNNING OUT
OF STRAWBERRY POP‐TARTS.
- HI, CAN I GET THE BREAKFAST SPECIAL?
- $5, PLEASE.
I HAVE TO SAY THAT I LOVE THAT
IT'S CRISPY ON THE OUTSIDE.
IT DEFINITELY HAS
A NICE CRUNCH TO IT,
WHICH IS REALLY GREAT TEXTURE,
ESPECIALLY COMPLEMENTS
THE DOUGHINESS ON THE INSIDE,
WHICH IS A LITTLE BIT TOO MUCH,
BUT THE CRUNCHINESS IS PERFECT,
NICE AND CARAMELIZED AND SWEET
ON THE TOP.
I'M GONNA ORDER
THE BREAKFAST SPECIAL.
OH, YEAH, OKAY.
HEY,
WE GOT THE KILLER!
JEREMY, HERE YOU GO.
OH, WOW.
THANK YOU.
THIS IS HUGE. OKAY.
SEOUL SAUSAGE DEFINITELY COULD
HAVE GONE A LITTLE LIGHTER,
BUT IT'S GREAT,
AND I LOVE HOW IT'S BURNT
ON THE OUTSIDE.
THE PRESENTATION IS WONDERFUL,
REALLY, THE WHOLE THING.
HERE YOU GO, MY MAN.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
THE OVERALL QUALITY IS OKAY.
I WOULD HAVE LIKED
TO SEE SOMETHING
MAYBE A LITTLE THINNER,
MAYBE SOMETHING
ON THE INSIDE OF THE WAFFLE,
MAYBE LIKE A WAFFLE SANDWICH.
BUT IT'S A NICE FLAVOR. IT'S
OKAY. IT'S SUBTLE, NOTHING WOW.
ALL RIGHT, WE HAVE A POP‐TART
HASH SPECIAL FOR YOU.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I REALLY LOVE
THE POP‐TART HASH.
THE FLAVORS MELD REALLY WELL
WITH EACH OTHER.
I LOVE THE POTATOES.
I LOVE THE BACON.
HOWEVER, IF I WOULD MAKE
ONE IMPROVEMENT, IT WOULD BE
TO DEFINITELY USE
BETTER POTATOES.
I'M KIND OF GETTING
FRENCH FRIES IN HERE,
AND I DON'T KNOW
HOW I LIKE THAT THAT MUCH.
HOW'S IT GOING?
HI.
HOW YOU DOING TODAY?
I'M GOOD.
I'M GOING TO HAVE
A POP‐TART SPECIAL.
OKAY.
THE POP‐TART ITSELF IS CLASSIC
POP‐TART. IT'S DELICIOUS.
HOWEVER, ALL THE ADD‐ONS‐‐
THAT CREAM CHEESE,
THE STRAWBERRIES, THE CHOCOLATE,
IT'S A LITTLE TOO MUCH.
HELLO?
HI, GUYS.
IT'S TYLER.
HI, TYLER.
JEREMY HAS TASTED ALL FIVE
OF YOUR BREAKFAST SPECIALS,
AND BESIDES BEING
INCREDIBLY FULL,
HE IS READY

SOME NEWS FOR US.
COME ON, JEREMY.
TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD.
ALL RIGHT, JEREMY, SOMEBODY'S
GONNA WIN RANDY OVER HERE
AND MORE IMPORTANTLY,
$750.
WHO'S IT GONNA BE?
WELL, GUYS, THIS WAS
A REALLY TOUGH CHALLENGE,
BUT WHAT IT CAME DOWN TO WAS WHO
FEATURED THE POP‐TART THE BEST.
ALL RIGHT.
FOR ME, THE TWO TEAMS THAT
REALLY MADE THE POP‐TART SHINE
WERE
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE
AND SEOUL SAUSAGE.
AND SEOUL SAUSAGE.
OH, MY GOSH!
ALWAYS IN THE TOP TWO.
CONGRATULATIONS, GUYS.
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE,
I'M GUESSING YOUR FRENCH TOAST
WAS ONE OF GRANDMA'S RECIPES.
IT WAS OUR
GRANDMOTHER'S RECIPE, YES.
WELL, NONNA
SHOULD BE PROUD.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
DID WE WIN?
AND, SEOUL SAUSAGE,
THE EGGS, THE BACON,
THE FRENCH TOAST,
IT WAS INCREDIBLY CREATIVE.
- It was like a complete breakfast package.
- GOOD JOB, CHRIS.
SO IT'S DOWN TO NONNA'S
KITCHENETTE AND SEOUL SAUSAGE.
WHO'S GONNA WIN RANDY
OVER HERE,
PLUS $750?
Well, Tyler,
THE WINNER IS...
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE.
THANK YOU, JEREMY, SO MUCH.
WE ARE SO HAPPY.
THIS IS THE BEST NEWS
I EVER HAD IN MY LIFE.
THIS IS GONNA REALLY MAKE A HUGE
DIFFERENCE IN THIS COMPETITION.
ALL RIGHT, LISTEN, SO JEREMY'S
GONNA COME BY WITH A TOKEN
WORTH $750
IN YOUR TILL.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
WE CAN'T WAIT TO GET IT.
NOW FOR THE REST
OF YOU,
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE
TO ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES
AND FIGURE OUT
HOW TO CLOSE THE GAP.
WE NEED TO CLOSE THAT GAP
WITH THAT $750.
BUT FIRST, YOU GUYS
are gonna have
a little siesta.
SIESTA, GREAT.
YOU GOT IT.
I'M SHUTTING YOU DOWN AGAIN.
GUYS, THIS IS
YOUR SPEED BUMP.
SPEED BUMP.
Now that you've mastered
the breakfast shift,
there's one more shift
you got to master.
THAT'S
THE GRAVEYARD SHIFT. OH, NO.
OKAY.
GUYS, YOU'RE ALL CLOSED
AS OF RIGHT NOW.
NO MORE SALES.
SHUTTING DOWN.
AND THEN WHAT?
YOU CAN REOPEN
AT 1:00 A. M.
And push through
past dawn.
WE'RE OPENING
AT 1:00 A. M.
WE'RE OPENING UP
AT 1:00 A. M.?
WE HAVE TO CLOSE NOW,
BUT WE REOPEN AT 1:00 A. M.
OH, MY GOD.
1:00 A. M.?
WE'LL SEE HOW IT GOES OUT THERE.
YOU MIGHT CATCH A BAR CROWD.
YOU MIGHT CATCH CRICKETS.
Either way, you need
to close down and rest up.
We'll see you back on the street
at 1:00 a. M.
PEOPLE ARE GONNA BE
VERY UPSET WITH US.
ALL RIGHT,
HERE WE GO, MAN.
THIS GOES
TO NONNA'S KITCHENETTE.
NOW BE CAREFUL WITH THIS, ‘CAUSE
THE GIRLS ARE KIND OF SMALL.
OH, MY GOSH.
IT MIGHT BE AS BIG AS THEM.
RANDY THE RAZORBACK GETS A HOME.
TYLER HAS SHUT US DOWN.
WE HAVE TO REOPEN THIS BAD BOY
AT 1:00 A. M.
IF ANYBODY CAN HELP US FIND
A GREAT SPOT AT 1:00 A. M.
AND KNOWS WHERE
THE PARTY'S GONNA BE,
WE WOULD LOVE YOU
SO MUCH.
FAYETTEVILLE,
GIVE ME AN “OHH.”
OHH.

- YEAH!
‘CAUSE WE'RE GONNA TAKE
A GRAVEYARD SHIFT ON TONIGHT.
IT'LL BE AT 1:00 A. M.
WE'RE GONNA TAKE
A LITTLE CATNAP,
AND WE'RE GONNA BE READY
TO SERVE EVERYONE HERE.
- HEY, GIRLS.
- WHAT IS THAT?
OH, MY GOD, GUYS!
IT'S OUR PRIZE!
I WANT YOU TO MEET
RANDY THE RAZORBACK.
OH, MY GOD.
HE'S YOUR VERY NEW ADDITION
TO YOUR TRUCK
AND MAYBE EVEN
ON YOUR MANTEL.
I SAW YOU! I REMEMBER YOU!
I SERVED YOU!
WE LOVE YOU, JEREMY.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I REMEMBER YOU!
WHOO!
CONGRATULATIONS.
I LOVE MY RAZORBACK.
AND I'M SO PROUD OF MY TEAM.
I'M SO PROUD OF OUR NONNA'S
FOR HELPING US WITH THIS RECIPE.
AND WE'RE JUST HAPPY
TO HAVE HIM ONBOARD.
OKAY, EVERYBODY, WE ARE CLOSED,
AND WE WILL REOPEN AT 1:00 A. M.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU!
GO, NONNA'S KITCHEN!
RIGHT NOW I CAN'T TAKE
ANY MORE ORDERS.
OH.
I AM SHUT DOWN.
I'M SORRY.
YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT A DAY
FOR UPS AND DOWNS.
HOW LONG WAS OUR LINE?
DID YOU SEE IT OUT THERE?
IT WAS
DOWN THE SIDEWALK.
CUT US A BREAK, TYLER.
COME ON.
WE COULD HAVE USED
THAT EXTRA TIME.
OH, MY GOODNESS.
I HAVE NOT DONE
AN OVERNIGHT SHIFT LIKE THIS
SINCE I WORKED IN RADIO
IN THE LATE ‘90s.
IT'S 1:00 A.M.
IN FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS,
AND OUR TEAMS ARE
ABOUT TO TACKLE SOMETHING
EVEN FOOD TRUCK VETERANS
RARELY TRY‐‐
THE GRAVEYARD SHIFT.
FELIX THAT WE MET TODAY, THEY'RE
GONNA SAVE US A SPOT ON DICKSON.
ALL THE TEAMS ARE BANKING
ON THE BAR CROWD
AT DICKSON STREET...
BUT THEY ALL KNOW IT WILL BE
CRICKETS BY 3:00 A. M.
POP‐A‐WAFFLE HAS A SPOT
NEAR A BEER GARDEN
OFF THE MAIN DRAG.
ARE YOU GUYS READY
FOR WAFFLES?
SEOUL SAUSAGE PLANS
TO PULL UP ON DICKSON
AND LET THE CROWDS
COME TO THEM.
WE GOT A BATCH OF BALLS
THAT WE COULD DO.
THAT'S ALL WE GOT LEFT
RIGHT NOW.
COAST OF ATLANTA'S OUT OF FOOD,
SO THEY'RE GONNA
DROP THEIR TRUCK AND DASH OFF
TO A 24‐HOUR GROCERY STORE.
20 MINUTES. WE GOT
TO GO SHOPPING, ALL RIGHT?
HAVE A COUPLE
MORE DRINKS.
AND NONNA'S KITCHENETTE
HAS THEIR EYE ON A SPOT
BY THE CORNER OF DICKSON STREET
AND SCHOOL AVENUE. HOLY...
PROBLEM IS, SO DOES
MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB.
IT LOOKS LIKE A BUNCH
OF DRUNK COLLEGE KIDS.MM‐HMM.
PULL ALL THE WAY UP
BEHIND OUR CAR,
AND THEN
I'M GONNA BACK YOU IN.
ALL RIGHT, YOU'RE GOOD.
CAREFUL. CAREFUL.
JESS, CAN YOU SEE ME?
BACK STRAIGHT BACK.
YEAH.
HEY, HEY, HEY.
NO, NO, NO. WE WERE HERE FIRST.
THAT'S NOT A DEAL.
- STRAIGHTEN OUT.
- YOU'RE GONNA GET RUN OVER.
ANYWHERE ELSE,
I WOULD HAVE ALREADY
DECKED THIS GIRL IN THE FACE
AND LAID HER OUT,
BUT WE'RE IN A GAME.
WE"RE IN A COMPETITION.
SO JUST GET THE... AWAY FROM ME.
RIGHT HERE?
YEAH, WE'LL LEAVE A LITTLE SPACE
BETWEEN US AND THE... OKAY.
I JUST WANT
TO LET YOU GUYS KNOW
THIS IS THE ONLY PLACE
IN THE WORLD
YOU'RE GONNA GET SOME
KIMCHI FRIED CHEESY BALLS!
WHOO!
MY FIRST REACTION
IS THIS IS WHAT AEROSMITH
MUST HAVE FELT LIKE
EVERY TIME THEY WENT ONSTAGE.
7 BALLS,
$42, MY MAN.
WHY ARE YOU GETTING
AN ODD NUMBER OF BALLS?
FINALLY. CAN A BROTHER
GET 12 BALLS AND 2 LEMONADES?
AND TWO LEMONADES.
DICKSON STREET PARTYGOERS,
ARE YOU READY FOR SOME WAFFLES?
YEAH!
CUSTOMERS ARE WAITING FOR US.
THOSE KIDS ARE HUNGRY.
THEY WANT WAFFLES.
STAN, STAN, THE STRAWBERRY MAN.
IF HE CAN'T DO IT, NO ONE CAN.
I THINK WE MADE THE BEST MOVE
TO BE ABLE TO JUST OPEN QUICKLY
AND GET THOSE WAFFLES
OUT THE DOOR.
RACHEL. HELLO. THERE'S
YOUR CHURRO WAFFLE, DARLING.
THE FEELING RIGHT NOW
OF EVERYBODY ON THE STREETS
IS BY FAR THE CRAZIEST MOMENT
OF THIS RACE.
WOO...
PIG. SOOIE!
OH, MY GOD.
THESE PEOPLE ARE TREATING US
LIKE WE'RE CELEBRITIES.
THEY CAN'T WAIT TO EAT OUR FOOD,
AND WE ARE SO EXCITED
AND CANNOT WAIT TO SERVE THEM.
SO, GUYS, HERE'S
WHAT I'M SERVING RIGHT NOW.
I HAVE ITALIAN DOUGHNUTS,
AND THEY'RE FRIED, AND THEY'RE
COVERED IN POWDERED SUGAR.
WE CALL ‘EM ZEPPOLES AT HOME.
THEY'RE AWESOME.
THEN I HAVE A QUESADILLA
WITH MOZZARELLA, PESTO,
AND TOMATO.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
THANK YOU. I APPRECIATE IT.
HOW'S IT GOING? ENJOY.
LET'S GO.
WE GOT A CROWD TO GET BACK TO.
LET'S GO.
WE FIGURE
THIS IS A COLLEGE TOWN,
SO IT MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA
TO DROP OUR PRICE POINT
A LITTLE BIT.
WE WOULD LOVE
A FISH BASKET, PLEASE.
WE'RE STICKING WITH
ONE MENU ITEM‐‐FISH BASKETS.
THERE YOU GO, FIRST ORDER
OF THE DAY. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
WE ALSO MADE OUR PORTIONS
A LITTLE BIT SMALLER.
HOPEFULLY THAT'LL COMPENSATE
FOR THE DROP IN PRICE POINT.
THERE'S YOUR RECEIPT.
THANK YOU.
WE'LL CALL YOUR NUMBER
IN JUST A FEW MOMENTS.
THANK YOU, GUYS, FOR
WAITING. WHAT CAN I GET YOU?
AN ORDER
OF EVERYTHING.
AN ORDER OF EVERYTHING.
$12 TOTAL.
WE ARE
STILL FILLING ORDERS‐‐
YOU KNOW, I'M SURE EVENTUALLY
THIS IS GONNA TRICKLE OFF,
BUT ONCE IT IS,
THEN WE'LL JUST KEEP PREPPING
UNTIL THE EARLY MORNING CROWD
COMES BACK.
$16's YOUR CHANGE.
THANK YOU.
NICE HOT FRIED FISH,
DELICIOUS, YUMMY.
AS I EXPECTED, THE BAR CROWD
HAS PRETTY MUCH DIED OFF
AFTER A COUPLE OF HOURS.
NOW IT'S LIKE THE WALKING DEAD
ZONE. THERE'S NOBODY AROUND,
AND I CAN SEE TUMBLEWEEDS
BLOWING DOWN THE STREET.
ONE OF
THE CUSTOMERS SAID
- WE SHOULD GO CHECK OUT THE FARMERS' MARKET.
- YEP.
IT'S A HUGE
PEOPLE WALKING EVENT...
YEAH.
YOU KNOW,
SUNDAY MORNING.
WE FOUND OUT THERE'S ANOTHER
FARMERS' MARKET THIS MORNING,
SO WE'RE GONNA TRY TO GET IN
THERE AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE.
WE'RE IN THIS TRUCK.
IT'S KIND OF HARD
TO DETERMINE
WHETHER IT'S DAYLIGHT
OR NIGHTTIME OUT,
AND WE'RE ALL
A LITTLE BIT DISORIENTED.
OH, OH, OH. DAMN IT.
JUST...
YOU NEED TO LEAVE THE TRUCK,
MOM, FOR TEN MINUTES AT LEAST.
JUST STOP.
GO WALK AROUND OUTSIDE.
I WANT THIS DONE.
I AM NOT GOING ANYWHERE
OR DOING ANYTHING ELSE
UNTIL THE PREP IS DONE.
DO WE WANT TO CALL LORI AND TRY
TO GO TO THAT FARMERS' MARKET?
IT'S AT 9:00.
THERE'S A FARMERS' MARKET
IN TOWN.
IF I CAN GET ONE SOLID HOUR
OF SALES IN THIS MORNING,
I THINK IT'S THE BEST
POSSIBLE OPTION.
IF THERE'S AT LEAST PARKING
AROUND THE FARMERS' MARKET,
WE'RE BETTER OFF THERE.
I THINK ONCE I SEE A CROWD,
MY SECOND WIND WILL KICK IN,
BUT UNTIL THEN...
I THINK WE'RE JUST GONNA NEED
TO SLAP EACH OTHER.
TWO AND A HALF
DOZEN EGGS.
I GOT
TWO DIFFERENT CHEESES.
I NEED TO FIGURE OUT
SOMETHING TO MAKE.
THE FIRST THING THAT COMES
TO MIND IS BREAKFAST BURRITO
BECAUSE WHAT WOULD I WANT TO EAT
AFTER A LONG NIGHT OF DRINKING?
GROUND CHICKEN OR GROUND PORK?
WHAT'S CHEAPER? CHICKEN?
$1.49 A POUND.
BUT WE KIND OF TWEAKED IT. WE
TURNED IT INTO A BREAKFAST TACO.
NO.
KOREAN TACOS.
HECK YEAH.
I'M HUNGRY.
I'M A LITTLE SLEEPY.
BUT WHATEVER.
EVERY LAST DOLLAR COUNTS.
I GOT TO TOUGH OUT
WHATEVER I CAN TOUGH OUT.
TURN IT AROUND.
- CINNAMON BATTER WITH CHOCOLATE.
- PERFECT.
PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO PILE INTO
THE FARMERS' MARKET RIGHT NOW.
IT'S A GOOD FEELING.
HOPEFULLY WE CAN GET SOME
REALLY AWESOME LAST SALES IN.
NUMBER 46.
THE GOOD NEWS
IS THAT WE HAVE FRENCH TOAST
PREPPED FROM YESTERDAY.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
HI.
IT'S TILAPIA,
FRIED TILAPIA.
NUMBER 90.
♪ GOOD MORNING TO YOU
OUR PLAN OF ATTACK
AT THIS TIME IN THE MORNING
IS REALLY SIMPLE.
WE'RE GONNA DO A BASIC
STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE WAFFLE
- THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN A WINNER FOR US.
- HERE IS THE STRAWBERRY.
I GOT TWO TACOS
IN THE WINDOW.
ALL RIGHT,
LET'S FEED SOME PEOPLE.
THE SEOUL SAUSAGES JOINED US
IN OUR PRIMO SPOT.
WE'RE GONNA MAKE IT WORK.
ON AN EARLY SUNDAY MORNING,
THERE'S SAFETY IN NUMBERS.
WE GOT TEN TACOS
ALL DAY.
- JUST TAKE ONE MORE ORDER, AND THAT'S IT.
- AWESOME.
THERE YOU GO.
THANK YOU.
WE'RE GONNA KEEP PUTTING OUT
FOOD AND TRY AND GET
AS MANY CUSTOMERS RIGHT HERE
AS WE CAN TILL THE VERY END.
WE JUST HOPE IT'S ENOUGH.
THERE'S YOUR WINGS.
THANK YOU.
ALL RIGHT.
OUR LAST ORDER
IN FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS.
ALL RIGHT, Y'ALL,
THAT'S IT.
WE HAD A NICE LITTLE LAST PUSH
THOSE LAST 30 MINUTES.
YEP.
IT MIGHT HAVE KEPT US
IN THIS GAME.
HOPEFULLY.
WE'VE MADE OUR LAST SALE,
AND I JUST DON'T KNOW
IF IT'S GONNA BE ENOUGH
TO KEEP US IN THIS RACE.
I THINK THE BIGGEST MISTAKE
THAT WE MADE
IS NOT CALLING AHEAD TO GET INTO
THE FARMERS' MARKET.
I THINK THAT MIGHT HAVE
KILLED US.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TYLER'S
GONNA TAKE OUT OF OUR TILL
FOR THAT WHOLE DEAL,
THE LAMPPOST DEAL,
BUT WE CAN STILL‐‐WE CAN
STILL WIN BY A COUPLE DOLLARS.
IT'S LIKELY THAT WE'RE GOING
HOME, BECAUSE OF THE LAMPPOST.
AT LEAST WE'RE GOING OUT
KNOWING THAT WE CAN
RUN A FOOD TRUCK.
WE CAN PUT FOOD OUT,
AND WE CAN BE SUCCESSFUL
AT THIS BUSINESS.
WHAT A DAY.
GUYS, HERE WE ARE
AT THE FOURTH
“GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE”
ELIMINATION,
AND I'M GONNA GET
RIGHT TO THE POINT.
I THOUGHT
I HAD SEEN IT ALL
OVER THE COURSE
OF TWO AND A HALF RACES,
BUT I WAS WRONG.
THIS ELIMINATION IS GONNA BE
UNLIKE ANY OTHER WE'VE EVER HAD.
I FEEL SAD, REALLY SAD,
BECAUSE I DON'T THINK
WE DID WELL ENOUGH TO MAKE UP
FOR THE DIFFERENCE THAT
THE LAMPPOST IS GONNA COST US.
I'M TRYING TO BE POSITIVE
AND THINK HAPPY THOUGHTS,
BUT THERE'S THIS GNAWING
INSIDE OF ME.
OKAY, GUYS,
LET'S GO.
LET'S DIVE
INTO THIS‐‐
WHO MADE THE MOST,
WHO MADE THE LEAST,
AND WHO'S GOING HOME
RIGHT NOW.
IN FIRST PLACE,
WITH A VERY SOLID TOTAL
OF $3,005‐‐
NONNA'S KITCHENETTE.
YAY.
SEOUL SAUSAGE
NEEDS TO WATCH OUT.
NONNA'S HAS PROVED THIS WEEKEND
THAT WE ARE THE TEAM TO BEAT.
WE ARE JUST, LIKE,
ON CLOUD NINE.
NOW IN SECOND PLACE
WITH $2,907‐‐
SEOUL SAUSAGE.
FOR THE RECORD,
THAT'S A $98 DIFFERENCE.
AND LET'S NOT FORGET
THE GIRLS WON $750.
IT ONLY GOES TO SHOW YOU
TRUCK STOPS MATTER.
NOW THE TEAM WITH THE THIRD
BEST TOTAL THIS WEEKEND
IS MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB,
BUT, LADIES,
YOU ARE NOT SAFE.
THERE'S A VERY LARGE MATTER
OF THE LIGHT POST YOU DESTROYED.
THAT LIGHT POST IS GONNA COST
THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE
$1,900.
AND UNDER
NO CIRCUMSTANCES
WILL THE TAXPAYERS BE
ON THE HOOK FOR A PENNY OF IT.
MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB,
THAT MEANS THE BILL
BELONGS TO YOU.
YEAH.
HOWEVER, WE TALKED
TO MAYOR JORDAN
WHO WAS INCREDIBLY GRACIOUS
UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES.
MAYOR JORDAN
HAS AGREED
TO TREAT THIS
AS AN INSURANCE MATTER.
THAT MEANS YOU ARE ONLY
RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEDUCTIBLE.
THAT SAID,
IT'S STILL THE LARGEST PENALTY
IN THE HISTORY OF THIS RACE.
IT'S $250
OUT OF YOUR TILL.
THAT'S A LOT OF MONEY TO LOSE
IN A CLOSE RACE LIKE THIS...
YEAH.
BUT IT'S BETTER THAN LOSING
THE WHOLE $1,900.
ALL RIGHT,
LET'S CONTINUE.
IN THIRD PLACE
WITH $1,936‐‐
POP‐A‐WAFFLE.
ALL RIGHT, GUYS.
CONGRATULATIONS, GUYS.
YOU ARE SAFE.
OKAY, THAT LEAVES
OUR BOTTOM TWO‐‐
MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB
AND COAST OF ATLANTA.
AND, MOMMA'S, YOU GUYS WOULD BE
SAFE AND SOUND RIGHT NOW
IF IT WASN'T
FOR THAT LIGHT POST.
TIFFANY, I KNOW YOU'RE TAKING
THIS REALLY, REALLY HARD.
HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF YOUR
FRIEND'S DREAM ENDED RIGHT NOW
FOR SOMETHING THAT YOU DID
BEHIND THE WHEEL OF A TRUCK?
THERE ARE NO WORDS
AT THIS POINT.
I'VE BEEN WORRYING ABOUT IT
SINCE IT HAPPENED.
THAT'S THE FIRST THINK
THAT CROSSED MY MIND
WHEN I SAW
THAT LIGHT POST FALL.
“OH, NO.
WE'RE GOING HOME.”
I FEEL LIKE HE'S DANGLING
A GLIMMER OF HOPE
AND YET PULLING THE RUG OUT
FROM UNDER ME AT THE SAME TIME.
I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK
AT THIS POINT.
OKAY, GUYS, A TEAM GOES HOME
RIGHT NOW.
I WANT TO STAY
IN THIS RACE SO BAD.
WE'RE FINALLY GETTING
THE HANG OF IT.
I CAN'T HANDLE THIS.
IN FOURTH PLACE...
BY A MARGIN OF $24...
ESSENTIALLY ONE TICKET,
MOMMA'S GRIZZLY GRUB.
COAST OF ATLANTA'S GOING HOME,
AND WE'RE STAYING.
THIS IS NOTHING SHORT
OF A MIRACLE.
COAST OF ATLANTA,
I AM VERY, VERY SORRY.
YOU MADE $1,818.
THERE'S NO DOUBT
YOU CAN COOK.
SO NOW IT'S TIME
TO GO BACK TO ATLANTA
AND TAKE IT
TO THE NEXT LEVEL.
RIGHT NOW,
I NEED YOUR KEYS.
EVERYBODY, PLEASE GIVE
COAST OF ATLANTA
A ROUND OF APPLAUSE.
IT HURTS
WE WERE ELIMINATED.
IT'S STILL NOT GONNA STOP ME
FROM PURSUING MY DREAMS
OF OWNING A FOOD TRUCK.
I'M GONNA KEEP ON KEEPING ON.
GUYS, THIS IS WHERE
IT GETS REAL.
YOU ARE THE FINAL FOUR.
ONE OF YOU IS GONNA WIN
YOUR VERY OWN FOOD TRUCK
AND $50,000.
OKAY, FINAL FOUR,
SO ARE YOU GUYS READY
TO FIND OUT WHERE WE'RE GOING?
IT'S A SHORT 530 MILES DUE EAST
OF HERE‐‐
MUSIC CITY,
NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE.
OUR POP‐A‐WAFFLE BAND
IS TUNED UP
AND READY TO TAKE ON MUSIC CITY.
WE'RE READY FOR THE FOOD TRUCK
CHALLENGE OF OUR LIVES.
LET'S GET IN THE TRUCKS
AND LET'S GET ROLLING!
NEXT TIME ON
“THE GREAT FOOD TRUCK RACE”...
THIS COMPETITION JUST GOT CRAZY,
AND SO DID I.
YEAH.
WE ARE OPEN
FOR BUSINESS, GUYS.
THAT'S A SEOUL SAUSAGE LINE
THAT THEY USED TO HAVE.
I'M SO PISSED OFF.
CAN WE SERVE YOU
SOME FOOD?
WAFFLES.
OKAY, LET'S RESET, OKAY?
OKAY?
WAFFLES.
OKAY, LET'S RESET, OKAY?
OKAY?
LET'S DO IT.
I NEED SOMEBODY
BEHIND ME.
