In the second episode of Jamie's American Roadtrip Jamie steps into the Wild West states of Wyoming and Montana to find out what life as a cowboy is really like. Jamie spends time at a rodeo in Cody, before heading upstate into the mountains to try and cut it on a working cattle ranch. He cooks for proper cowboys, rides out into the wilderness and even sleeps rough under the stars!

For the first time, Jamie will be eating outside Manhattan, experiencing an illegal dinner and opening his own underground restaurant. "New York's food culture is built on wave after wave of immigration," says Jamie, "it's the world on a plate." In Astoria, Egyptian chef Ali takes Jamie to a halal butcher and sends him on a sensory trip down memory lane with a long forgotten taste of hibiscus. "When I was 4 years old someone gave me that on the Norfolk Broads and I've been searching for that flavour ever since and never found it!" he beams.

The final stop on Jamie's tour is a Navajo Indian reservation in Arizona, where he encounters America's oldest cuisine and experiences Navajo traditions up close and spiritually.

Jamie finds himself in the Deep South as he visits the state of Georgia in the fifth episode of Jamie’s American Roadtrip. One of the country’s poorest states and birthplace of the civil rights movement, Jamie embarks on a recession roadtrip across the state.
