The American Baking Competition

In the series premiere, a baking firefighter battles his own fire in the kitchen and a Southern baker introduces judge, Paul Hollywood, to chocolate bacon. Jeff Foxworthy hosts.

Tensions rise as one baker gets burned for deceiving the judges, one whips up a batch of treats so good they deem them "slap yo mama" cookies, and someone crumbles under the pressure.

Creative juices begin to flow as the bakers face a "Surprise-Inside" cake challenge, and one baker may be overconfident when they mix soda pop and cake batter.

Bakers begin to sweat when they need to present their breads to one of the world's premiere bread bakers, Judge Paul Hollywood, and one baker hopes her red-hot candies will fire up the judges.

Brian and Francine go to war over their shared refrigerator, and the bakers must stagger their start and end times during their technical challenge to produce the perfect dessert.

The contestants face a double elimination in a semi-final showdown, and Brian puts aside his competitive nature to help a fellow baker.

As the final three bakers compete in a winner-take-all battle for $250,000 and a cookbook contract, the pressure reaches an all-time high, leading one of them to break down.
