6	1	"The Three Amigos"	Emma Taylor	Ben Archard	4 April 2020 (2020-04-04)	7.65
Having previously toured their own countries, Gordon Ramsay, Gino D'Acampo and Fred Sirieix now hit the highways of the United States - although in the first episode, they are in Mexico, on a mission to taste the world's best breakfast. Along the way, the trio take part in a chili-eating competition, have a beach buggy race and watch some traditional Mexican wrestling - but it isn't long before they are persuaded not take part.^[11]
7	2	"City Slickers"	Emma Taylor	Ben Archard	16 April 2020 (2020-04-16)	6.93
Gordon Ramsay aims to show his companions that US food lives up to its reputation of being bigger and better as they travel from Nevada to Los Angeles. They begin in style with a helicopter ride about the Grand Canyon - although Gino is too nervous to appreciate the spectacle below him. Next up is a trout fishing trip contest in the Colorado River, followed by a burger in Las Vegas with a hefty price tag of $777 and a visit to a ranch where they have to round up herds of cattle on horseback. Finally, they hit Los Angeles, where they have a barbecue battle.^[12]
8	3	"Summer of Love"	Emma Taylor	Ben Archard	16 April 2020 (2020-04-16)	7.14
Gordon Ramsay, Gino D'Acampo and Fred Sirieix head to San Francisco, the free-spirited capital of the United States. They start out by sampling the latest trends of using cannabis in cooking, which was legalised in California in 2018 - but as they enjoy a hippy afternoon tea, Gino overindulges and chaos ensues, especially when the next activity on the agenda is a session of goat yoga. Moving on, the trio dig for clams on the Pacific coast, take a hot-air ride to a vineyard and visit a factory in Chinatown where fortune cookies are made. It seems a competition is in order and so the travel companions see who can make the most cookies in 60 seconds.^[13]
9	4	"Brokeback Mountain"	Emma Taylor	Ben Archard	23 April 2020 (2020-04-23)	6.91
For the final leg of their US jaunt, the trio arrive in Texas, a meat-lover's paradise where Gordon Ramsay is keen to introduce his companions to some of the best barbecue food known to man. In Lexington, Gordon turns lumberjack in an attempt to fell a dead oak - which is used to infuse ovens with wood smoke. There's a break for a bit of skinny dipping, before the trio fish go fishing, and stay in a strange cabin deep in the woods, surviving on beans and bourbon. They then hit the state capital of Austin, dressing as cowboys in the local bar and at the rodeo, before one last barbecue supper of slow-smoked beef brisket, pork ribs and spicy sausage.^[14]
