Episode One: Monday, September 30 at 7:30 p.m. ET/PT
Kicking off the Grill Masters Challenge week is frazzled single mom April Williams.

April’s menu includes Cajun shrimp with roasted corn slaw; prime rib with twice-baked potatoes and grilled vegetables and an interesting dessert; grilled peach cobbler complete with home-made whiskey ice cream. Will April’s bundle of nerves behind the grill cause her to go up in flames or will she smoke out the competition to win the title of the BBQ host with the most?
Episode Two: Monday, September 30 at 8 p.m. ET/PT
It’s the second night in the first-ever Grill Masters Challenge. Taking his turn behind the barbeque is abrasive American Adam Whisler. Adam is confident that Yankees barbeque better and he’s ready to prove it, starting with his three courses; grilled tacos with guacamole and pico de gallo; cochinita pibi; otherwise known as Mexican pulled pork, jicama and blood orange slaw, and finally mango-lime ice with grilled pineapple. Will the cocky hipster come out as king of the Q or will he be out-grilled by a Canuck?
Episode Three: Monday, September 30 at 8:30 p.m. ET/PT
It is mid-week of the Grill Masters Challenge dinner party war and taking on hump day is rocker dad Ron Robson. Tonight, Ron plans on being a triple threat, using a barbeque, a smoker, and a roast box. While mingling, the dinner guests are shocked to find out Ron’s roasting a full pig for their main course. First up, he serves short ribs, chicken satay, pork belly, stuffed jalapenos and purple cabbage coleslaw, and closes out the night with a hearty dessert; pineapple pound cake. Will Ron be the one to beat, or has he taken on too much by serving everything but the kitchen sink?
Episode Four: Monday, September 30 at 9 p.m. ET/PT
It’s day four of the Grill Masters Challenge and hosting tonight is tough and tatted Kyla, who’s out to prove that girls can grill! Kyla starts off strong with chocolate vodka shots to get her guests in the mood. With everyone having eaten the appetizer – it’s time for a game of dares, which means a jungle yell for Rocker Ron, a rooster call for Raj, and some barely PG whipped crème action between April and Adam. Kyla turns up the heat for the main course, serving tasty trout. For dessert everyone has to suffer through a third night of grilled pineapple! Will Kyla’s ups and downs send the biker babe off course? Or will she cruise to the winner’s circle?
Episode Five: Monday, September 30 at 9:30 p.m. ET/PT
It’s the grand finale of Come Dine With Me Canada’s first-ever Grill Masters Challenge, and in the host seat is none other than rambunctious Raj. Poor Raj has been the butt of everyone’s joke all week, but is determined to not to make a fool of himself tonight. This may explain why Raj has asked his housekeeper to stick around to chop onions, peel apples, and set the table for him. On the final night of BBQ week will Raj run out of gas? Or will he end up winning the title of Come Dine With Me Canada Grill Master?
