Welcome to my totally arbitrary list of Iron Chef America (ICA) episodes. I'd like to think these are entertaining enough that you could use this list as a guide for introducing ICA newbies to the series and suck them in, but I might be flattering myself.
Directed by Eytan Keller. With Alton Brown, Mark Dacascos, Kevin Brauch, Mario Batali. Chef Chris Cosentino battles it out with Iron Chef Michael Symon. Judges: Michael Ruhlman, Cady Huffman, Andrew Knowlton.
The correct pronunciation for offal sounds just like awful, but this Halloween-themed battle of blood (pig's blood) and guts is anything but awful. Enjoy the ghoulish pomp of the nimble Chairman and Igor and Frankenstein from the Broadway version of Young Frankestein as special guests for awfully good fun with offal.
With Mario Batali, Kevin Brauch, Alton Brown, Anne Burrell. Food Network All-Stars Rachael Ray and Giada De Laurentiis come to Kitchen Stadium to battle it out. In a special twist, the Chairman decides to pair them with Iron Chefs Bobby Flay and Mario Batali in an unexpected battle.
It's an "all star" team food fight with Rachael Ray and Mario Batalli against Bobby Flay and Giada De Laurentiis in battle Cranberry. With 10 delicious dishes made with a little berry with a big benefit, there's so much to be grateful for.
With Alton Brown, Mark Dacascos, Kevin Brauch, Karine Bakhoum. New York chef Gabrielle Hamilton takes on Iron Chef Bobby Flay. Judges are Louisa Chu, Karine Bakhoum and Michael Ruhlman.
It's hard to say exactly why I have such a strong affinity for this episode. Could it be the surprisingly good food porn from a basic ingredient like zucchini or is it the writer/chef contestant? You decide.
Directed by Eytan Keller. With Alton Brown, Mark Dacascos, Kevin Brauch, Cory Barrett. Will New York chef Akhtar Nawab's exciting use of spices overwhelm Iron Chef Michael Symon? Judges: Keyshawn Johnson; Isabel Gonzalez; Patton Oswalt.
Watch for a fun cameo as a judge from comedian Patton Oswalt in Battle Pineapple! (Enjoy with a pina colada.)

Maria Batali whips up some of the most amazing food porn ever in Battle Parmigiano-Reggiano.
With Alton Brown, Mark Dacascos, Kevin Brauch, Homaro Cantu. Chicago chef Homaru Cantu challenges Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto to a battle in Kitchen Stadium. Chef Cantu, renowned for his use of technology to prepare his dishes, is hoping to stun the judges with creativity and flavor.

Directed by Dana Calderwood. With Kevin Brauch, Alton Brown, Mark Dacascos, John Fraser.
It's all about the machismo in one on one battle between Iron Chef Symon and Chef Fraser, and you thought cauliflower was a dainty veggie.
