Kitchen Stadium was the stage to show the skills of the larger-than-life culinary masters, the Iron Chefs. Surely these giants of cooking need grand ingredients with which to work.

- Giant Eel Battle (628) – Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto vs. Hirokazu Handa
- Giant Lobster (721) – Iron Chef Masahiko Kobe vs. Makoto Osada
- Jumbo Mushroom (727) – Iron Chef Masahiko Kobe vs. Shoji Yamaoka
New this week in the video database: Giant Lobster (721), Jumbo Mushroom (727)
The following episodes may be found by searching our video database: 628, 721, 727
Look for Episodes of the Week every Tuesday as we continue to add episodes to the video database. (And if you have an idea for an Episode of the Week theme, please let us know. You can check out the full episode list to see all of the theme ingredients.)
