Three chefs arrive in an old west ghost town in Landers, Calif., where the competitors must gather rattlesnake meat in a burlap sack but have to make it past five hissing snakes to get there. For the next challenge, the chefs must procure their ingre... (more)dients from a broken down chuck wagon and transport them via whiskey barrel through the muddy terrain. With twist after twist, the competitors must cook up a meal for twelve hungry cowboys and are handcuffed for the last ten minutes of cooking time. In the ultimate showdown, the two remaining chefs cut open hay bales to find their ingredients and cook up the perfect single bite using only miners' tools and hot coal. The Extreme Chef perfects the art of old-time x-factors and walks away with the coveted title.
