Hell's Kitchen (2005)

S17E8 Welcome To The Jungle

In this episode, the contestants face a challenge in HELL'S KITCHEN's "Jungle," where they must prepare dishes featuring exotic meats like Boar, Venison, and Elk, reminiscent of those consumed by early humans. Each team embarks on a hunt using spears to gather five side ingredients to complement their main dishes. Renowned chefs Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo, known for their work at Animal, Son of a Gun, and Trois Mec, join Gordon to judge the competition. Later, during dinner service, a surprise visit from Goo Goo Dolls' frontman John Rzeznik influences the dynamics for one of the teams.
