David vs. Goliath

This Is Food Truck Heaven?

For the first time in The Great Food Truck Race's history, Tyler Florence pits four food truck pros against five food truck rookies in an epic David vs. Goliath battle to win $50,000. The nine teams arrive in Los Angeles ready to fight, but no one is prepared for the twists and turns Tyler has in store. With over 4,000 licensed food trucks already on streets, the competition in Los Angeles proves to be one of the toughest challenges.

Meet Mookie

Eight food truck teams can't believe their eyes when Tyler Florence welcomes pro-baseball legend and two-time All-Star Mookie Betts to a Los Angeles little league field, where he will judge a ballpark eats challenge. Not only will one team receive a reward for crafting Mookie's favorite dish, but whoever serves the most meals to 150 little league all-stars and their families will receive immunity along with the largest reward in the history of The Great Food Truck Race.

Team-plosion

Tensions rise as seven teams face their third set of tough challenges in the city of Los Angeles. One truck attracts the attention of movie star Kumail Nanjiani, but inner turmoil between teammates pushes them towards imploding. The rookies still struggle to make it to the top rankings, and one pro team finally hits their stride while another plummets to the bottom two.

Can They Do That?

A truck shocks the competition by replacing a member of their team with a previously eliminated competitor. One rookie truck strategizes and sets their sights on taking out one of the pros, but their plan backfires in an unexpected way. Then, a pro team that's been on the bottom turns up the steam and scraps their way up the rankings. Plus, acclaimed Chef Antonia Lofaso returns with a unique challenge of her own.

Ready, Jet, Go

World-renowned Chef Jet Tila helps Tyler Florence challenge the five teams to make dishes that reflect their culinary origin stories -- and his favorite gets a reward! The pro versus rookie rivalry intensifies with catastrophic consequences for one team in particular. Then, the rookies claim their first number one finish, and in a shocking elimination, one of the top-ranked teams tumbles to the bottom two.

Family Food

Last season's grand prize winner Evanice Holz from Señoreata Food Truck challenges the four remaining teams to turn their family recipes into plant-based creations to sell at Smorgasburg, an epic Los Angeles food event. After pairing the teams up to sell as two units, Tyler Florence offers his own family favorites as inspiration. Then, a tearful elimination sends a much-loved team home empty-handed.

Need for Speed

With a key team member out sick, one food truck is forced to operate as a two-person unit, placing them at a severe disadvantage. Culinary powerhouse Chef Joe Sasto joins Tyler Florence to challenge the final three teams to a taste and speed challenge. On day two, the competitors work beside some of Los Angeles' best food trucks for a nighttime rally in Venice Beach, where they'll meet Daniel Shemtob, head chef of two-time Race winner Lime Truck.

Final Showdown

With two trucks left to fight in the finale, each team steals one dish from the other's menu and crafts their own versions to sell at the Regarding Her Food Festival. Tyler Florence surprises them with a high-stakes rapid fire challenge judged by three renowned Los Angeles chefs, and he allows them to only sell one all-in entrée all day. Both teams scrap for their last sales, hoping to claim the grand prize of $50,000!
