The UK BBQ Map

Welcome to the UK BBQ Map!

I’ve been watching BBQ schools pop up all over the place lately—and that’s fantastic. Formal classes are an epic way to learn, packed with banter, hands-on experience, and lessons from people who’ve invested heavily in their passion. But let’s be real—BBQ doesn’t always need to be so structured.

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of talented BBQ lovers out there, cooking up a storm in their back gardens, who would be more than happy to share what they know, cook alongside you, and help others level up their BBQ game—whether that’s in your garden or theirs.

So What’s This Map About?

  • Find & Connect – Whether you’re looking for a formal BBQ school, a casual meet-up, or someone local to bounce ideas off, this is the place.
  • List Yourself – Got BBQ knowledge to share? Add yourself to the map and let others find you.
  • You’re in Control – You manage your own listing. I just approve it to keep out the spam—after that, it’s all yours.

I’m just the geek who makes shit like this work—this is your map, built for everyone who loves BBQ, from the pros to the backyard heroes.

So, whether you’re running a BBQ school, grilling in your garden, or just keen to cook with others—get yourself on the map, connect, and let’s keep the UK BBQ community growing!

Privacy Note:

You do not have to give your exact address—that would be crazy. Some of us have expensive kit in the garden, and privacy matters. When adding your location, just drop a pin anywhere in your town or city—it doesn’t need to be precise. The goal is for people to find you, not your front door!

🔥 UK BBQ COMMUNITY – LET’S GET YOUR BUTCHER ON THE LIST! 🔥

For years, I’ve been asked to put together a list of butchers that actually get BBQ. Not just any old meat shop, but ones that can 100% supply the cuts we love—brisket, Boston butts, Jacob’s Ladder short ribs, proper chicken wings, and more.

So, I’ve done it. No catch. No fees. No BS. Just a proper resource to help us all find butchers that know what they’re doing.

Now, let’s be real—being on this list probably won’t change a butcher’s life overnight 😂, but in the past 30 days alone, my little website has been visited by over 13,000 people. Not bad, considering most only cook outside when the sun’s shining (which right now, let’s be honest, is never).

I’m a @villagebutchers man myself and get 90% of my stuff from them (even before we started doing a few bits together). But I know everyone has their own preferences—some love supporting their local butcher, some like to explore different suppliers. That’s exactly why I put this list together.

If a butcher can supply the Smoke & Sear BBQ Bundle, they can get listed—simple as that. They just need to send me a few details and a single photo of them standing behind all the cuts. All the details are here: 👇👇👇

This is just another way I’m trying to support the UK BBQ community—so if you, like me, want to see it grow… get involved! 💪🔥

TAG your butcher below! Let them know so they can be proud of supplying the UK BBQ Community with the cuts we love. Let’s build a proper list of butchers that actually get it! 🔥🔥🔥

🔥 THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL UK BBQ LIST IS BACK! 🔥

I know this list is going to trigger some people—and guess what? I don’t care. 😂 I’m here for the hate, the DMs, the “WHY AM I NOT ON IT?” messages. It’s my list, my opinion… BOOM. 💥

Yesterday I posted a story asking if I should bring this back. Over 90% of people voted HELL YES. So here it is—my personal list of the Top 100 UK BBQ Instagram Accounts for 2025. 🔥

The UK BBQ scene is always evolving, with new faces smashing it, old faces still holding it down, and the community bigger than ever. This is how I see it right now. Will it change in a few months? Maybe. Will I update it just because someone’s crying about it? Absolutely not. 😂

👉 Check out the full list here:

https://www.smokeandsear.world/bbq-community/top-100-uk-bbq-instagram-accounts-2025/

💬 Disagree? Drop a comment. Maybe there’s someone I need to check out. But let’s be real… I won’t change it just because someone’s feelings are hurt. 😉🔥

🔥 5 Ways to Cook Beef on the Ninja FlexFlame! 🔥
 
One incredible piece of equipment. FIVE epic beef dishes.
 
I put the Ninja FlexFlame to the ultimate test — grilling, smoking, baking, griddling, and even using the pizza stone — all in one day, all on one outdoor cooking system. 💪
 
Here’s what I made:
 
🥩 Tomahawk Steak — grilled to perfection.
🍖 Beef Short Ribs — smoked low & slow till they fall apart.
🌮 Birria Tacos — griddled and packed with smoky shredded beef.
🍔 Smashburgers with Bacon Jam — crispy, cheesy, and stacked high.
🍕 Birria Pizza — pizza stone perfection topped with birria short rib.
 
The FlexFlame handled everything I threw at it — seamlessly switching functions and delivering insane results every time.
 
⚡ UK BBQ Lovers! The Ninja FlexFlame will be coming to the UK in 2026 — so while it’s not available just yet, this is your official teaser. Get ready for next-level outdoor cooking! 🔥🇬🇧

🔥 DIRTY-SEARED TOMAHAWK ELOTE TACOS 🌽🥩🌮

This one was inspired by the legend himself, @grillnation – never tried elote before and wasn’t sure what to expect… but damn, it SLAPS! 💥

Big thanks to Village Butchers for the epic Tomahawk. 

Temps locked in tight with the Ninja ProChef while the Kamado Joe handled the smoke and that primal dirty sear straight on the coals. 🔥⚡

Juicy steak, smoky elote (no mayo for me, ha!), all wrapped in a taco—BBQ bliss. 🤤

⚡ Recipe’s up on the website… you know where to find it! ⚡

🔥 SMOKY MAPLE SRIRACHA CHICKEN THIGHS 🔥

Sweet, spicy, smoky, and juicy—this one’s all about BIG flavours! 🍗💥

These oyster-cut chicken thighs from @villagebutchers were marinated in maple, @sriracha_fg Sriracha, and smoky paprika, then cooked to perfection in the @ninjakitchenuk Woodfire.

I served mine with bacon-loaded fries, a drizzle of Sriracha mayo, and some smoky pit beans (grab that recipe on the site too). The ultimate BBQ-inspired feast! 🔥
