- For their first team challenge, the contestants cook for one hundred marines and their families.
- The home cooks are challenged to make a single cupcake, and while that sounds like a simple task, they quickly learn that it's not that easy. Later, special guest Chef Cat Cora and the contestants step out of the kitchen for the team challenge: cooking for truckers at a truck stop. The losers return to face the pressure test, where they must name as many ingredients they can from a table of fresh farmers-market finds.—Fox Publicity
- Mystery Box Challenge: This challenge required the contestants to bake cupcakes. Whitney, Jake, and Sharone were the top three. Sharone's cupcake gave him the win. Challenge Winner/Immune: Sharone Hakman. Special Challenge/Elimination Test: Sharone was introduced to chef Cat Cora and shown three of her signature dishes, one of which he and all the other contestants would have to replicate. He chose a truffled halibut. Sharone was also told that if he could cook the dish to a better standard than Cora herself, he would get a direct entry into the final four. The judges did not consider Sharone's dish better than Cora's own version. Jake was the winner of this challenge. Winner: Jake Gandolfo. Bottom three: Faruq Jenkins, Mike Kim and Slim Huynh. Faruq was sent home. Eliminated: Faruq Jenkins. Team Challenge: The teams had to cook hamburgers for 100 truckers. The truckers themselves would vote for the winner.
