The Stockyards Smokehouse & Larder (Toronto, Ont., Canada) • Chili John's (Burbank, Calif.) • Sidecar (Philadelphia, Pa.)

This trip Guy's hittin' the road for some scratch-made comfort food. In Toronto, the smokehouse kicking burgers and fried chicken up a notch and turning a traditional BLT on its head. In Burbank, Calif., the family-owned chili-serving spot with a name dating back a century. And in Philadelphia, the three-story gourmet bar food joint crankin' out clam chowder with gnocchi and a regional fry favorite.
