Someone tell Bobby Flay he's out of a job, except for all the jobs at the many restaurants he owns, because the real throwdown's happening at The Federal, where their Houston-rooted chef will take on Haven's Dallas transplant Todd Erickson in a five-course cook-off including roasted jalapeno/fried egg-topped beef and smoked short rib, all of which'll be scored by you on things like tasting, presentation, and originality.
