Guy Fieri is celebrating summer with a splash! He invites eight GGG winners back for an epic five-week tournament featuring cool new games, bold summer flavors and some killer grillin'. In round one, the chefs prepare a signature summer dish with only the ingredients they can fit in a beach bag! The best dish earns an instant $5,000, but the bottom two chefs go head-to-head to make the grilled chicken dinner of their lives. One chef will be eliminated, and the remaining chefs will stay in the running to become the ultimate summer champ and win $25,000!

It's fun in the park for the six remaining summer tournament chefs! Guy Fieri asks the chefs to partner up and create team picnic plates, with each teammate first shopping a different half of the store using picnic baskets. The top-ranked team splits $5,000, but the members of the bottom team must go head-to-head in a bodacious burger battle, featuring pickled ingredients they score in a GGG version of pickle ball. One chef will be eliminated, and the remaining chefs will stay in the running to become the summer champ and win $25,000!
