It's fair to say Simon has one of Britain's top chefs on this latest episode of Grilling. Marcus Wareing famously worked hand-in-glove with Gordon Ramsay for many years, earning several Michelin stars along the way. After what one can only describe as an acrimonious parting of the ways, he opened ‘Marcus Wareing at the Berkeley’ back in 2010, now known simply as Marcus, where he is Chef Patron. He’s also made numerous television appearances on shows like Masterchef: The Professionals and The Great British Menu - where he got the better of Simon with a legendary custard tart that he then made for the Queen.

He and Simon discuss his tough childhood working in the family fruit and veg business, his meteoric rise through the culinary ranks, and what went wrong with Gordon. He also serves up a fantastic barbecue recipe, and has a top tip for keeping your meet succulent when you get cooking outdoors.
