Tom Kerridge Secrets of the Pub Kitchen continues its second series with Game On, airing Monday, June 23, 2025, at 9:30 PM GMT on Food Network. This episode takes viewers beyond the plating to consider the less glamorous, but equally important, aspects of running a successful pub kitchen: cleanliness.
Kerridge and his team reveal the intense cleaning routine that keeps their pub spotless. It’s a behind-the-scenes look at the rigor required to maintain high standards, a detail often overlooked but critical to any food establishment. Beyond the hygiene, the episode naturally includes some cooking. Kerridge and his chefs prepare a chili con carne featuring slow-cooked venison, aiming for a rich and hearty dish. For a sweet finish, they prepare rice cream and chocolate, adding an interesting twist to the meal.
This series continues to see Tom Kerridge put his own spin on classic British pub menu items, making them contemporary and simple to prepare, while always focusing on flavor.
