NEW YORK,
July 20, 2015 /PRNewswire/
-- Guy Fieri hosts some
of the biggest stars from Food Network and Cooking Channel in
special summertime stunt, Guy's Grocery Games
All-Stars, premiering Sunday,
August 23rd at 8pm
ET/PT on Food Network. Each of the five episodes
features four culinary all-stars competing in a number of
challenges as they navigate their way through the aisles of a
grocery store with curveballs from games such as the Fieri Food
Pyramid or the feared Food Wheel. Whether it is preparing an
upscale dinner using frozen and canned foods, making a noodle dish
from the clearance carts or creating a dinner using ingredients
from the produce aisle only, each All-Star chef has to shop,
prepare, and plate three different dishes using only what they can
grab from the grocery store aisles. One-by-one the losing All-Stars
check out, determined by a rotating panel of judges that
includes Richard Blais, Melissa
d'Arabian, Duskie Estes, G. Garvin,
Troy Johnson, Beau MacMillan, Brian
Malarkey, Catherine
McCord and Aarti
Sequeira. In the fifth and final episode, each All-Star
is teamed up with a professional athlete, giving them even more of
a sporting chance to be the victor and go on a shopping spree for a
cash prize for their charity!

Guy
Fieri turns the tables on the show's All-Star judges by

and Z! Then, they must prepare a decadent dinner using only
ingredients from the produce aisle. The two finalists must prepare

and make their best dish using processed items from the middle
aisles of the store. Then, the chefs experience real highs and lows
when the feared Food Wheel determines the high-end and low-end
ingredients in their A-list dinner. The winning All-Star chef goes
on a shopping spree for charity worth up to $20,000.

dice determines what these pairs of pros must use for their
pre-game meal! Then, teams race the store relay-style, grabbing
