In week six of competition on The Great American Recipe, the home cooks step outside their comfort zone in two rounds of cooking. In the first round, the home cooks have 60 minutes to put their spin on a fellow home cook's recipe. In round two, the home cooks have 60 minutes to create a dish inspired by a friend.

The final three of America's best home cooks compete for a chance to win The Great American Recipe. In the first round, our finalists receive a care package from a loved one at home and in that package are some ingredients to provide inspiration for an unforgettable dish. In the final round of the competition, the cooks create their most treasured dish that represents their Great American Recipe.
