Jamie Rust had nothing to do during the lockdown, and so he just decided to improve upon what he likes to do: BBQ. And so, when he, along with some mates, took on the Restaurant Challenge by Altons BBQ World, Rust gave it his best shot. The contest was simple: “replicate classic dishes from some of the biggest chains around, such as KFC, Nando's and Pizza Express.”
… he didn't hold back, forking out £60 ($78) on the ingredients to make his own Big Mac, fries, Filet-O-Fish and apple pie.
In preparation, the dad-of one said he went down to his local branch which supplied him with the packaging so it looked a touch more authentic.
He said: "I cooked 99 percent of the whole menu, made my own Maccies uniform, and even made a custom Lego toy that looked like me with a set of tongs and a BBQ.
"The Sausage and Egg McMuffin and Chicken Legend were identical! Everything else was better than Maccies because of the fresh ingredients and seasoning."
Rust won with a score of 9.9/10. But the battle does not end here, as there’s still the second round, where he hopes to step things up a gear.
The McDonald’s menu took him 18 hours to make.
