When the hit reality competition series RuPaul’s Drag Race first hit television screens back in 2009, the original concept of the show was part parody – in typical drag fashion – of mainstream competition shows such as the Tyra Banks helmed America’s Next Top Model. Now, with drag having entered the mainstream like never before, Hulu’s new show Drag Me to Dinner sees drag superstars take on reality cooking shows in a riotous faux competition series, as a trailer for the upcoming show has now been released.

The new reality show will see teams of two drag icons battle it out both in the kitchen and at the dinner table, to throw the most fabulous dinner party according to a different theme with each episode. Each challenge will be judged on three categories: food and drink, entertainment, and design and decor. Should one need a break from peer drag-centric high-stakes reality competitions such as Drag Race – which recently saw the conclusion of its fifteenth season – or Queen of the Universe, which is set to embark on its second season outing next month, Drag Me to Dinner offers a light-hearted faux competition alternative; competing queens face-off not for a grand prize of $200,000 and a lifetime supply of cosmetics, but instead for the coveted Glorious Golden Grater – because while one team may be great… the other is grater.
