David Myers and Simon King embark on a 2,000-mile journey along the famous American road, taking them through eight different states, each with their own history, flavours and people. They begin by learning about Chicago's meatpacking industry, before moving on to small-town American, where they spend time with the Amish community, cooking together and learning about their different way of life. Their first leg ends in St Louis, where they try `concrete custard" - a treat so rich and thick it has to be served upside down.

On the second leg of their Route 66 adventure Dave and Si set out to discover what lies beneath the legend of this iconic road.
At a biker bar in Missouri they learn of a much older route: The Trail Of Tears, A path taken by the Cherokee and other tribes after being forcibly removed from their homelands. Then, after a spot of fishing on the Big Piney river, the Bikers cook up Blackened Fish and Dirty Corn for the bar's regulars.

After checking out El Reno's unique onion burger the Bikers hook up with a couple of fire crews who like to cook - especially brisket.
An organic sweet potato farm inspires the Bikers to make sweet potato brownies, before they finish this stretch on a cattle ranch with America's most iconic custodian of the land - the cowboy.

The fourth leg of the trip sees them ride from Texas into New Mexico. From burger joints to a cowboy emporium and a chocolatier to a cheesemaker, the bikers explore the small, independently owned restaurants and food producers - places that have achieved special recognition.

They also cook some real favourites: chilli con carne, carnitas with mac and cheese and a grown-up chilli chocolate pie.
