Mitch and podcast guest (and wife) Sam Ashinoff-Goldich, indulge in the seven-course degustation menu at Hans Herzog Estate in New Zealand's wine region. Each course is paired with a different wine, in a fine-dining experience worthy of a special fish knife. Highlights of the meal include an asparagus soup poured at the table, adventures in lemon froth over pasta and a goat cheese mixed with volcanic ash. (Seriously.) This was a four-hour meal where the honeymooning diners got so close to the sommelier that he literally drove them home at the end of the night.

Mitch flies all the way to New Zealand to try a burger that CNN has called the best in the world. Fergburger sits you down with a view of the kitchen, which cranks meals out from 8 a.m. to 5 a.m., so this is exactly the kind of burger joint Mitch would be into. Plus: Why salt and pepper squid is the new onion rings when it comes to sides for your burger. Please subscribe in iTunes, SoundCloud, Stitcher or Google Play.

Mitch decides he can't leave Nashville until he finds some tacos. He discovers Edley's, which has been voted the best BBQ in the city. The brisket and fried shrimp are good, but the secret might be the sauce and the toasted shells. He also goes "best player available" with three starch-heavy sides: cornbread, mac and cheese and maybe the best banana pudding he's ever tried.

Before Mitch and Sam could tie the knot, of course they needed to pick out their perfect wedding cake.

Mitch goes down to Nashville and waits 90 minutes for hot chicken at the famous Hattie B's.

Mitch's Austin trip continues with a stop at the famous Voodoo Doughnut. He samples one from both the cake and the raised yeast categories, choosing the Sprinkle Cake and the Old Dirty Bastard. Special guest Greg Patchak returns to the podcast to talk about gigantic doughnuts, a thick layer of peanut butter and Oreos and flavor so intense they had to gather themselves between bites.

Mitch pigs out in Austin, Texas. (And cows, and turkeys.) Special guest Matt Smith returns to the podcast to power rank five meats (beef rib, brisket, chipotle sausage, pork rib, turkey) and discuss a bunch of sides. The beef rib is big enough to have come from a dinosaur and the pickles are spicy enough to be jalapeños. Only in Texas. Please subscribe in iTunes, SoundCloud, Stitcher or Google Play.

Mitch combines his craving for ice cream with his love of the sugar cereal aisle during his long-awaited first trip to Emack & Bolio's.
