S2E2 American Road Trip: City Slickers

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.
