-Warren is working on his beer shrimp dish with polenta and mango reduction, but seems a bit frazzled. I want to hug him.

-Becca has Murt taste her dish because she doesn’t drink. He tells her it is good.

-Fatima struggles with her sauce but hopes for the best.

-Daniela is struggling with getting her shrimp done with only minutes to spare.

-Arthur’s dish isn’t quite done, so he hopes for the best as well. He is afraid since he was already in the bottom two twice.

-Before long, time is up and the judges go around to taste each dish. They give the pros and cons on each before deciding on the top four.

 

BEST DISHES:

Gen Z: Murt: His beer battered fish tacos and mango beer slaw was well-cooked and flavorful.

Millennial: Kamay: Her beer rub pork chop and succotash is delicious and full of flavor.

Gen X: Arthur: His cod with rainbow chard infused with beer is simple and perfect.

Baby Boomers: Rebecka: Her snapper puttanesca and polenta is ‘a joy to taste.’

The winner of the night is….Rebecka! She won the immunity pin and has saved all the Baby Boomers from elimination.

 

WORST DISHES:

Gen Z: Fatima: Her BBQ chicken and potatoes has a sauce that is way too thick and he chicken is overcooked. The potatoes are undercooked. The judges also can’t taste the beer.

Millennial: Jeet: Ger Blue Moon beer battered fish has good ideas behind it, but it is poorly executed. However, it does taste good.

Gen X: Daniela: Her beer poached shrimp is not up to par for a winning dish.

 

Fatima is eliminated.

-The judges talk to each group to see their progress and offer commentary and advice.

-The Red Team wants to make changes, so Kamay keeps telling everyone to talk to Arthur, making him even more overwhelmed. He begins to get annoyed with how she is taking over.

-Horacio and Rebecka continue to butt heads. Chef Gordon Ramsay tells them that the chicken is too dry, so they make a marinade, which is too salty. Chef Ramsay gets annoyed with both of them and tells them to get it together.

-The Blue Team is now making macaroni and cheese.

-Horacio is taken off chicken and put on slaw duty. He is not happy with this.
