Snails are the first order of business in the Chopped kitchen. Can the competitors make escargot go with red jalapenos?

And it's crunch time for two finalists, when they must make dessert using blue corn tortilla chips.
11x9 - Yuzu Never Know

October 16, 2012
Getting piggy with it for Halloween, the chefs have to cook with snouts in the first round.
