Guy's Grocery Games - Season 35

It's enrollment week at Flavortown Academy! Guy Fieri invites seven home cooks from across the country to an intensive five-week cooking competition for a chance to win $35,000. Luckily, they'll be taught by all-star culinary "professors" Jet Tila and Antonia Lofaso. The teachers need to pick their class, so the home cooks make their signature dish to prove they have the necessary chops to qualify as worthy students. The two cooks with the least successful dish battle for a chance to stay enrolled.

It's freshman week at Guy Fieri's Flavortown Academy, and culinary "professors" Jet Tila and Antonia Lofaso have each chosen to mentor three home cooks in hopes that one of their students will ultimately win the $35,000 graduation prize. This week's course is "How to Budget," and the teams must prove they can cook a party platter on a budget. The winning class gets a free pass to the sophomore class, while the three students in the losing class must compete against each other to stay in the tournament.

Guy Fieri introduces the top 5 students to their sophomore course, which is all about elevating food. Under the guidance of "professors" Jet Tila and Antonia Lofaso, the students must make an elevated version of a classic weeknight dinner using nine ingredients or fewer. The two students with the least successful dishes are forced to go head-to-head a Pass/Fail Round.

Guy Fieri sends the top 4 students to Flavortown Academy's junior course devoted to world cuisines. The students choose carts containing two ingredients from a unique international cuisine to make a comfort classic. The two students who score at the bottom face off in the Pass/Fail Round. The winning student moves on to finals week for a shot at winning the $35,000 Graduation Prize.

The top 3 students at Guy Fieri's Flavortown Academy have made it to the senior finals, where all the culinary lessons "professors" Jet Tila and Antonia Lofaso have taught them will be tested. They'll make an upscale entrée using ingredients determined by a roll of the dice. The two most successful students will move on to the final culinary exam, where they will serve up an impressive graduation dinner. The last student standing will receive the Supermarket Cum Laude diploma and the $35,000 Graduation Prize.

Over the years, Guy Fieri has hosted events in support of Best Buddies, the volunteer organization that promotes one-on-one friendships with folks that have intellectual and developmental disabilities. Now, he's teaming up some of his Best Buddies friends with some all-star chefs for a holiday cookoff in Flavortown Market. The teams have one hour to make a holiday entrée and dessert featuring ingredients chosen from Guy's holiday sample tables plus whatever other ingredient they can fit in their holiday stockings. The winners will earn $15,000 for their Best Buddies team member.

Guy Fieri invites four chefs to break the world shopping speed record as they grab everything they'll need to make two complete meals in a single four-minute shop. To make things even more twisted, the chefs must grab a "must-use" red light special ingredient mid-shop. After the chefs cook a weeknight favorite, Guy insists they make an upscale dinner with what they have left, plus one more item from a designated aisle chosen at random. The winning chef will have an opportunity to speed shop Flavortown Market for up to $20,000.

Guy Fieri hosts a team competition between three previous GGG winners and three GGG judges! Working one at a time in 10-minute shifts, the first chef does the shopping and prepping, the middle chef does the cooking and the final chef plates and presents the dish. Only the first chef on each team is told that they're making a seafood platter with specific requirements. The chefs in the subsequent shifts will be working blind, cooking and presenting their team dish based on their best guess of what the chef before them was preparing. The team that successfully creates the best and most accurate seafood platter will go on a tag team shopping spree for up to $15,000!

Three of the best all-star chefs take on the most extreme ABC game yet! The chefs are given a whopping $100 each to make a comfort classic, but before they can cook, they must compete in an alphabet auction conducted by celebrated auctioneer Franco Finn! Chefs must outbid each other to earn the unique letters all their ingredients must start with. Guy Fieri ups the ante by making the chefs bid for not only their letter but also the crazy canned item their international dinner must feature. The all-star chef whose dishes taste, smell and spell the best will get a shot at winning $20,000!

Guy Fieri invites four of his favorite Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives seafood chefs to make some waves in Flavortown Market. First, they must make a regional dish using the fish they catch in their fly-fishing net, plus any other ingredients they can cram into the net in a single shop. Then, Guy invites his DDD chefs to prepare a seafood spectacular, but instead of digging for clams, they must dig in the sand for canned seafood to use in a fresh shellfish dish. The chef who sails through both challenges will get to search the store for hidden treasures worth up to $20,000.

Guy Fieri challenges four chefs to take on a Flavortown first, where they'll have to shop for and prepare two complete meals for four using no more than 10 lbs. of total ingredients! After the chefs use more than half their weighted groceries to make a hearty hot lunch, Guy lets them each grab an extra two items from the store's clearance rack to make their weeknight dinner. The winning chef gets a shot at turning 10 lbs. of food into up to $20,000.
