Watch Beachside Brawl

Antonia Lofaso is back on the beach for a day of roughing it! While Eric Adjepong and Brian Malarkey fish for seafood, the chefs pack everything they need for a rustic seafood feast. Then, two chefs fight for survival using only an open flame in the sand.

Antonia Lofaso challenges the remaining chefs to show they are America's best coastal chef. They'll have to impress special guest judges to win a beach vacation and become Best of the Beach, with support from Brian Malarkey and Eric Adjepong.

Chef Antonia Lofaso gets fancy as she tasks the chefs with creating their best beach club-worthy cuisine. Captains Eric Adjepong and Brian Malarkey kick things off with a friendly game of pickleball, and the chefs hit the seafood market on the pier to help make mouthwatering surf and turf dishes. Then, the two least successful chefs from the first battle face off in a one-on-one survival round to craft an upscale appetizer duo inspired by a classic cocktail. In the end, one chef will be eliminated as their champagne dreams come crashing down.

There's nothing better than a summertime road trip up the coast, and Chef Antonia Lofaso challenges the remaining chefs to give their trek a culinary upgrade! To kick things off, team captains Brian Malarkey and Eric Adjepong face off in a fast-food glow up, where the winner will get the biggest advantage yet -- the ability to bring back an eliminated chef or save one from a future elimination. In the second battle, the teams throw down by creating a coastal-themed roadside picnic. In the end, one chef will be eliminated, and their road trip will come to an end.

The competition heats up as Chef Antonia Lofaso starts the brawl over game day eats with, for the first time ever, a double elimination! In the first battle, two chefs face off in a pizza showdown, where the losing chef will be automatically eliminated. In the second battle, Eric Adjepong and Brain Malarkey draft proteins for their team's best game day dish. In the end, another chef will be eliminated and have to hang up their cleats.

Chef Antonia Lofaso sets off the fireworks as she challenges the chefs to create delicious summer eats that revolve around America's favorite summer holiday -- the 4th of July. After chefs Eric Adjepong and Brian Malarkey have a corn shuck-off, the teams create an all-American party platter that represents their coast while only being able to use ingredients they can fit in a beach cooler. For the second battle, the lowest two chefs from the losing team will have fight for survival against their own teammate by creating the ultimate beach burger. In the end, one chef will be eliminated, and their all-American party will end in tears.

The beachside battles continue as Chef Antonia Lofaso takes the brawl from the pier directly onto the beach. Chefs Brian Malarkey and Eric Adjepong kick things off in the sand with a one-on-one mentor battle to see who can make the best handheld grilled beach item and win a key advantage for their team. The second challenge is a full-on team event where they'll have to make their coasts' rendition of a beachside feast. In the end, one chef will be eliminated, and their fun in the sun will come to an end.

On the premiere, Antonia challenges the teams to create some of the most iconic summer food ever - pier favorites – while playing classic boardwalk games like balloon pop and softball toss. But it's not all fun in the sun, as each game reveals a twist including ingredients they must use or avoid using in their final dish. Throughout the seven-week competition, each challenge features the most mouthwatering dishes from the coasts, from fresh west coast fish tacos to buttery east coast lobster rolls, and more.
