When the most important ingredient is a sense of humour
Welcome to the World of Ready, Steady, Chuck!
Welcome to Ready, Steady, Chuck!, the random food game where celebrity chefs compete against the clock to create fantastic dishes in their quest to become Ready, Steady, Chuck! World Champion. Since the first World Challenge in 1999, Ready, Steady, Chuck! has firmly established its credentials as one of the world's greatest and most original independent random fusion food competitions of its kind.

What's new on Ready, Steady, Chuck!:
- It's been a long time since anything has changed on the Ready, Steady, Chuck! pages but so many things have happened since the last update (in 2015) that we thought it would be a good idea to do something. So we did. The most significant of which was, after two years of failing to get our acts together, holding a new Ready, Steady, Chuck! Challenge. Astonishing stuff. Four all-new recipes have now been added for you to make in your own home. Or not. Read all about them on our recipes page.
- Remember, there isn't a news page any more. Be sure to join us on Twitter and pay attention to the increasingly infrequent, but outrageously humourous and very-much-well-worth-the-wait-for news feed. As I have said before, life's just too short.
- The big button at the top of every page that will take you straight to the recpies is still there! (As ever, of course).
- And that's it. What do you mean, you wanted more? Who do you think you are? Oliver?
If you like us, please join us on Facebook* or follow us on Twitter!* But above all, enjoy the site - there's just so much more here to discover!
* we're aiming to have over 25 friends by the year 2020
Finding Your Way Around Ready, Steady, Chuck!
Within these web pages you will find all you need to play the game yourself, along with much more, including helpful tips from our celebrity chefs, and, of course, a selection of the exciting new recipes that have been created at previous years' championships.
Please take your time to enjoy our web site by either using the handy menu on the left to find your way around a la carte, or if you like, by our preferred method of random mouse clicking. If you're new to Ready, Steady, Chuck! you might like to take the celebrity chef's recommendation to start with our Introduction to Ready, Steady, Chuck!, as an entree, possibly accompanied by a side order of A Walk Through the 2006 Ready, Steady, Chuck! Challenge. Yes, it might be old, but it's still relevant (and funny).
The Ready, Steady, Chuck! web pages have been created entirely for the purpose of your entertainment. We hope you have as much fun discovering Ready, Steady, Chuck! as much as we have creating it.
WARNING! Under certain circumstances Ready, Steady, Chuck! can induce spontaneous, hysterical and uncontrollable laughter. Often in supermarkets. We recommend that you are relaxed and sitting comfortably before browsing these pages, and advise that you not do so at work, especially if you are sitting bored in a quiet office environment surrounded by people who are trying to look much more serious than you are.
And finally, for those who haven't realised yet:
ANOTHER WARNING!: This site contains irony. If you require detailed explanations of why things are funny, we would be grateful if you would request these, including a full written explanation, in an email to Ready, Steady, Chuck! Headquarters. The deafening silence suggests that this warning isn't needed, but please email us anyway. We would love to get an email sometime. Even abuse. And of course, any issues you raise are extremely likely to be publicised to all via this web site in due course, so that everyone else can have a laugh too. And on our Twitter feed so that the other 14 people there can enjoy it too.
The site also seems to contain increasing amounts of innuendo as well, but we don't need to warn anyone about that. It's just unfortunate for you if you don't get it.
Bon appetit!
