CELEBRITY Masterchef’s Bez left fans’ ‘stomachs churning’ with a ‘disgusting’ kitchen hack – but he had the last laugh.
The Happy Mondays star had made it through to the semi-finals with seven other famous faces.
Wednesday’s episode saw the eight celebs split into two teams and challenged to a relay-race to make a three-course meal in under 40 minutes.
Bez was up first for his team, and had to prepare the food that the rest of his team would then finish.
The 57-year-old decided to make a duck stir-fry, and set about preparing the meat.
However, viewers were left feeling sick to their stomachs as they watched Bez ‘hack’ into the bird.
Taking to Twitter, one wrote: “My stomach is turning watching Bez hack into that poor duck. It’s as if his life depends on it.”
Another added: “Omg that was so disgusting. Bez certainly knew what he was doing. The judges even praised him.”
A third, a self-confessed vegetarian, tweeted: “Mad that they still show this stuff on TV to be honest. That was horrible to see.”
Meanwhile a fellow viewer wrote: “God, it was like he was hacking up a dead body.”
Despite his butchering skills, Bez made it through to the next stage.
Bez previously revealed he had taken part in a cooking masterclass with his chef pal Stephen Terry before appearing on Celebrity Masterchef.
He joked to The Mirror: “When the judges said, ‘Bez is big on all his flavours’ I felt like I was cheating a bit, you know what I mean, because I was putting out these dishes what wasn’t really mine.”
Celebrity Masterchef airs on BBC One and is available on BBC iPlayer.
