The crew are tasked with turning a collection of barbecue smokers into a lucrative venture, all set against a chaotic, Texas‑sized mess in Houston. Their objective is to squeeze as much profit as possible from the smokers while dealing with the disorder that swamps the city, making every decision a race against the overwhelming scale of the problem. At the same time, they take on a second assignment that pits them against a massive termite infestation. The infestation is so extensive that it threatens to devour any earnings they manage to generate, turning the potential windfall into a precarious balance between making money and battling the relentless pests.
Matt sets out to explore two separate California hoards, scouring each for scarce bottles of liquor, hand‑rolled cigars and vintage drum kits.
