Are you ready to 'Turn Up The Heat'?

Could your working kitchen benefit from a new pizza oven or grill? What about a smoker or commercial barbecue? 


To celebrate the return of catering across the country, Essential Cuisine are calling on all chefs to submit their hero summer dish as part of their new ā€œturn up the heatā€ campaign.

Until the 31st May, the foodservice brand will be accepting entries, giving chefs across the foodservice industry the chance to win a commercial kitchen appliance of their choice up to the value of Ā£1000. 


Senior Business Development Chef, Jon-Harvey Barnes added, ā€œWeā€™re looking for creativity; fire cooking, seasonal ingredients, passion and of course flavour. Iā€™m so proud to work for a business that wants to giveaway such an amazing prize after such a tough year in one of the most impacted industries. We are hoping that this prize will open new doors and opportunities to the worthy winner.ā€ 

The process couldnā€™t be simpler, visit our entry page here, attach your recipe, describe what the prize would mean to you, complete the address fields and have a read over the terms and conditions ā€“ voilĆ !

Each entrant will automatically receive a ā€œturn up the heatā€ innovation box, packed with product samples and recipe cards to inspire your future menus.

Entries close on Monday 31st of May, so what are you waiting for? Find full T&Cā€™s here.
