BBQ Champ was a fun British TV show where real people competed to see who was the best at barbecuing! It aired on ITV in 2015, from July 31st to August 28th. The show was hosted by Myleene Klass, and two expert judges, Mark Blatchford and Adam Richman, decided who cooked the best.

About BBQ Champ: The Ultimate Grill Battle

This exciting TV show was all about finding the best home cook who could master the barbecue. Imagine a cooking competition, but only with grills! The main goal was to discover an amazing amateur barbecuer. The person who won the whole competition got a fantastic prize of £25,000.

How the BBQ Champ Competition Worked

Each episode of BBQ Champ featured different cooking challenges. Contestants had to show off their grilling skills. They cooked all sorts of delicious food on the barbecue. The judges watched closely and tasted everything.

At the end of each episode, the judges picked two contestants who hadn't done as well as the others. These two then had to face a special "grill-off" challenge. It was a head-to-head cooking battle! The judges then chose their favorite from this grill-off. The winner of the grill-off got to stay in the competition and move on to the next episode. The other person, sadly, was eliminated and had to go home. This made every episode very exciting!
