"Elimination Round Pt. 1: Chefs are required to “flip the script” on Texas barbecue with a brisket dish, but they only have 30 minutes to trim, season, and put their briskets on the pits at Houston’s J-Bar-M Barbecue before smoking it on the pit for 12 hours. [...] García’s brisket curry with pickled vegetables and a burnt ends crumble wowed judges. Colicchio called it a “destination” dish and Lakshmi, reportedly a tough curry critic, seemed like she’s ready to add it to J-Bar-M’s menu. García, who is excited to be surrounded by many of her Houston peers, beams when named the winner." - Brittany Britto Garley
