Let’s be honest. Most of us like the idea of batch cooking.
The reality is slightly different. It usually involves staring into the fridge at 6pm wondering why we didn’t cook anything earlier.
So we’re going to fix that.
Welcome to the very first Jam Jam Batch Cookathon.
The idea is simple.
On Sunday 7th June 2026 at 9:30am, we’re inviting everyone to spend one hour batch cooking something that will feed you or your family later in the week.
That’s it. Just one hour.
Soup, curry, chilli, lasagne, traybakes, slow cooker meals, freezer meals, sauces – anything that makes life easier later in the week.
How it works
- Decide what you’re going to cook.
- Round up the ingredients.
- Join the Cookathon on Sunday 7th June at 9:30am.
- Spend one hour batch cooking.
- Eat smugly later in the week.
After the cookathon, send us your photos, recipes, or short videos of what you made.
The best one will receive the prestigious and highly sought-after:
🏆 Jam Jam Batch Cooking Champion Certificate
(Yes, it’s a real certificate. Yes, you can frame it.)
If you can’t make exactly 9:30am, don’t worry – cook later that day and still join in.
If you’re in, leave a comment and tell us what you’re planning to cook.
Let the Jam Jam Batch Cookathon begin.
