The Ready, Steady, Chuck! Challenge

At regular intervals of at least one year, the Ready, Steady, Chuck! Champion is determined at the Ready, Steady, Chuck! Challenge, held in the summer in Bangor, North Wales. At the Challenge celebrity chefs compete to win the coveted Golden Bowl. When Ready, Steady, Chuck! began in 1999, it was intended that the Challenge should be held annually. Unfortunately that doesn't always happen. Well, we do our best.

2002. 2nd World Ready, Steady, Chuck! Challenge took place in Bangor, North Wales - Winner: Chef Bruce
2003. No challenge, because of a general lack of organisational skills

2006. 4th World Ready, Steady, Chuck! Challenge took place in Bangor, North Wales - Winner: Chef Kath
