Ainsley’s National Trust Cook Off is a cooking competition coming to ITV1 that sees top chefs compete to make the best alfresco dishes, using ingredients from some of Britain’s most idyllic stately homes.
Filmed in the National Trust properties around the UK (see below for locations), each episode will see former Ready, Steady, Cook host Ainsley Harriott pit two professional chefs against one another to come up with dishes inspired by their countryside surroundings. Volunteers and gardeners at each estate will judge them on two savoury dishes and only the winner gets the honour of making the dessert.
