BBQ Catering in Harrogate & Across Yorkshire

Live-fire BBQ and hog roasts for garden parties and outdoor events — relaxed, generous and full of flavour.

Live-fire BBQ catering done properly

Our BBQ catering in Harrogate is built around real flame and slow-cooked patience — not gas burners and shop-bought sauces. Trained across North Yorkshire and seasoned in the kitchens of Melbourne and Sydney, Jack brings a chef’s eye to outdoor cooking: dry-rubbed brisket cooked low and slow, smoky pulled pork, charred seasonal vegetables and house-made sides that turn a simple grill into a proper feast. Everything is prepared fresh on the day, so your guests eat food at its best.

Whether you’re hosting twenty friends or a couple of hundred, we scale the menu without losing the detail. We cater across Harrogate, Knaresborough, Ripon, Leeds and York and the wider Yorkshire region, and we’re happy to talk through dietary requirements, vegetarian and vegan options, and grazing-style serving so nobody is left waiting.

Hog roast in Harrogate & garden parties

A hog roast in Harrogate is a brilliant centrepiece for summer garden parties, anniversaries and large outdoor events. We source quality, locally reared pork, roast it slowly until the crackling is perfect, and carve it to order with soft rolls, apple sauce, stuffing and fresh accompaniments. For smaller crowds or mixed tastes, we can pair the hog roast with our live-fire BBQ spread so there’s something for everyone. Pop-up and street-food serving is also part of what we do through our Jack In A Box street food brand — ideal if you want a more casual, festival feel to your day.

Every BBQ and hog roast is priced per event, based on guest numbers, menu and location, so you only pay for what suits your occasion. Planning something bigger or more formal? Take a look at our event catering services for full-event packages.
