Everyone knows that person at a BBQ. The one who drifts toward the grill and suddenly becomes an expert. Lid up, lid down. “That needs another minute.” “You don’t want to rush it.” If that’s you (hey, no judgement), then you’ll feel right at home with Hog Roast Ambleside.
We’re known for our hog roasts, sure. That’s what people recognise us for. But our BBQs? They deserve just as much attention. Grilling isn’t an add-on for us – it’s something we genuinely care about. We’ve spent years figuring out what works, what doesn’t, and how to get food tasting exactly how it should when it comes off the grill. The equipment matters, the timing matters, but more than anything, the ingredients matter.
There’s a reason people say you can’t fix bad food with good cooking. So we don’t try. Everything we use is sourced fresh from local, award-winning farms that actually care about quality and animal welfare. The meat, the veg, even the fruit – Hog Roast Ambleside selects everything by hand so you know you’re getting the very best on offer. And you’ll notice the difference in every bite.
As for the cooking process, everything is made fresh from scratch with our own hands on the day of your event to ensure the flavours are as rich as possible. And because we know you eat with your eyes first, presentation matters to us too. Our burgers look like they belong on an advert. Our sausages have just enough charr to make your mouth water. And the ribs? Glossy doesn’t even begin to cover it.
You’ll find they taste even better – we take pride in making sure all the BBQ classics are done properly. Juicy burgers with melted cheese and fried onions, succulent sausages, sticky ribs and tender chicken kebabs. For non-meat eaters, there’s no awkward compromise – plant-based burgers and sausages, BBQ jackfruit sliders, and grilled veggie kebabs that are packed with just as much flavour.
Throw in plenty of sides and suddenly everyone’s plate looks different, but equally good.
Once you’ve had a BBQ with Hog Roast Ambleside, it’s hard to settle for anything else. If you know, you know. And if you don’t yet – maybe it’s time.
