Daddy Bear Grills

A fantastic turn out today at the Great British Food Festival we had amazing crowds, full masterclasses and everyone worked together to take our extra precautions to ensure safety all round.

We cooked some banging food and had lots of laughs!

Day 1 Wentworth Woodhouse ✅

See you all tomorrow🔥

Apart from cooking steaks over fire, my other passion is helping young people.

It’s our duty as adults to help shape and provide opportunities for the next generation.

I have been doing it day to day with my boxing and multi sports businesses & coaching for the last 20 years.

This weekend I got to do it with fire cooking! I got to hang out with a few younguns on the masterclasses Great British Food Festival and bringing ArchieB onto the stage to demo with me. Big shout out to him and Matthew Thomas (M47T) for hanging out and cooking with me!

Absolute cracker for day 1 Lydiard Park Great British Food Festival

Great crowds, good sales, lots of entertainment and even getting young people up to have a go at fire cooking on the Kadai - Original Barbecue & Fire Pit Combination

Produce - Uncle Beef Ltd (Butchers)
Fuel - Big K Products
Seasonings - Lumberjaxe Food Company
BBQ’s - Kadai - Original Barbecue & Fire Pit Combination

This is exactly why I do what I do. 🔥

What a weekend at the Great British Food Festival – Holdenby House

We met hundreds of brilliant people over the two days, shared plenty of laughs, cooked some incredible food and welcomed so many of you into our live demonstrations and hands on masterclasses.

From reverse seared Tomahawk steaks to chicken kebabs with homemade flatbreads, smash burgers, sizzling steaks and fire roasted wings, there was smoke, fire and flavour everywhere you looked.

It was fantastic to see so many of you picking up seasonings, sauces, BBQs and accessories, but what has made me smile the most is what happened afterwards.

Since getting home, my phone has been full of messages and photos from people who’ve gone straight into the garden, lit the BBQ and had a go themselves.

That’s what it’s all about.

Not just watching someone cook…

But leaving inspired to get outside, cook over fire and create memories with your own family and friends.

If we’ve managed to get even a handful more people cooking over real fire this weekend, then I’d call that a success.

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by, asked questions, joined a masterclass or simply came over to say hello.

We’ll see you around the fire again soon. 🔥

Have you cooked anything since getting home from the festival? I’d love to see it, drop a photo in the comments!

Everyone sees the fire. Very few see the vision behind it.

It’s been another brilliant week for Daddy Bear Grills.

🔥 Pop up events.
🔥 A private live fire masterclass at The Griffin’s Head.
🔥 A men’s evening around the fire in the beautiful meadow at Caracol Glamping

Now we’re loading the van and heading to Holdenby House for our 6th Great British Food Festival of the year, where I’ll be cooking live on the Fire Stage all weekend. If you’d like to see the demos, I’ll be live streaming throughout the weekend over on TikTok.

But whilst everyone sees the events, there’s something much bigger happening behind the scenes.

The vision has always been to bring proper live fire cooking to people’s everyday lives.

We’re making great progress with plans for our weekly pop up locations, and I can’t wait to announce the first venues.

The idea is simple.

Different locations across Kent throughout the week, serving fresh, wood fired breakfasts and lunches to people on their way to work or during their lunch break.

No frozen burgers.

No greasy burger vans.

Just quality local produce, cooked over real fire, with the smell of wood smoke drawing you in long before you reach the queue.

Because everyone deserves a lunch they’re actually excited about.

I’d love to hear your thoughts…

If we brought a Daddy Bear Grills pop up to a business park, industrial estate or workplace near you once a week, would you use it?

Or better still, do you know a location that would be perfect?

Drop it in the comments or send me a message.

Now, one last important question…

If you’re lighting the BBQ this weekend, what’s going on the grill? 🔥👇

Here’s to a good week coming up!

🔥Lots of event meetings
🔥The Modern Woodsman Men’s Evening Caracol Glamping tickets still available DM if interested

Super day today with the team from Aztec Carpets & Flooring for their team building away day.

We set them challenges to forage, light fires and cook feasts in teams. Lots of laughs and delicious food.

If you are interested in downing tools with your team together and having a great time, learning the art of cooking over fire, being put to the test to build team work, then give me a shout as we have a few spots left for this summer.
