Another culinary clash is on the menu, as two chefs enter the Beat Bobby Flay arena, hungry for a chance to take down the reigning champion. This week, Andrew Zimmern and ballerina Misty Copeland join forces to try and orchestrate Bobby Flay’s defeat. Their combined expertise in food anthropology and graceful movement might seem like an unusual pairing, but perhaps it’s the secret ingredient needed to finally dethrone the kitchen king.

Before they can even think about facing Flay, chefs Tristen Epps and Vinnie Cimino must first battle each other for the privilege. The pressure is on, as they must create a dish impressive enough to earn the approval of Zimmern and Copeland, two discerning palates with high expectations.
