Hoggy's Grill School

Learn from the best
and master the grill today.

I’m here to share my passion for grilling with everyone who loves great food and good times! Our space is all about fun and socialising, with a variety of grills to cook on, a fully licensed bar pouring local craft beers, paired wines, and unique spirits from nearby distilleries.We only use the best locally sourced meat, fish, and veg - it’s our promise! Grilling isn’t just about food; it’s about connecting with friends in a laid-back, fun atmosphere. Whether you want to master smash burgers, perfect sizzling steaks, or wow with grilled lobster tails (my wife’s favourite when I’m in trouble!), I’ve got you covered.Oh, and vegetarians and vegans? You’re not forgotten—I’ve got some incredible plant-based dishes too! Join us solo or bring the whole gang for an unforgettable grilling experience.

Our grill classes have something for everybody! From the absolute BBQ novice to the grill supremo, we guarantee that everyone will leave having learnt something new!

Our Basic and Gourmet Classes are both 4 hours long and feature a 3 course meal. Each starts with a welcome drink and BBQ nibbles. You will then be given the grand tour of Hoggy’s Grill with an opportunity to ask questions about each and every grill we have on offer.

Next, it’s time to don the aprons and get prepping the ingredients in your individual food boxes, accompanied by your favorite tipple should you so wish!

Grill time!!!!! Choose your weapon and get cooking. You can use your favourite grill or a combination of BBQs to test which suits you best! Hoggy will ensure that advice and guidance is always on hand!

Now for the best part; sit down, relax with a glass of wine and enjoy the meal you have expertly cooked! Two drinks are included in your package but there is always more on hand if you need a top up!

If you’re struggling to find 4 hours in your busy schedule, join us on our Ultimate Burger course. Just 2 hours out of your day and you can learn to grill your very own magical burger creation! We’ve had some weird ones but nothing is off limits!

We cater for everybody, not just the meat eaters! Fish, vegetarian and vegan menus are always available; just inform us before your visit! All we ask from you, is that you are over 16 and come with a large appetite! Nobody leaves hungry!

We can't wait to welcome you to Hoggy's Grill!
