A BRIDGWATER chef will be testing his culinary prowess by entering The Great Sausage Roll Off 2020.

Alan Chiltern, head chef at The Bower Inn, will be competing against 19 other cooks to see who can create the best sausage roll.

The competition is being held at The Red Lion Inn in Barnes on Wednesday, February 5.

The event is being hosted by award-winning beer and food writer Melissa Cole, and the judging panel includes TV celebrity chef and Sunday Brunch presenter Simon Rimmer, Heart FM DJ Lucy Horobin, and Michelin-starred chefs Paul Cunningham, Russell Bateman and Paul Foster.

Landlord at The Red Lion, Angus McKean, said: “Every year, the competition gets bigger and better and this year is our strongest line up ever. I can’t wait to see the weird and wonderful combinations of pastry, filling and accompaniments the chefs will submit."
