🔥 🇺🇸 NEW ORLEANS BBQ CLASS 🇺🇸 🔥 We’re bringing a little bit of N’Awlins chaos to Backwell… and it’s a GOOD one 😏 This is our Winkle Picker x Big Nath’s BBQ collab class — and it’s all about big flavours, messy feasting, and proper soul food cooked over fire. Think: 🦐 Seafood boil piled high 🍤 Shrimp ’n’ grits 🦪 Fried oysters + Cajun butter 🥪 Muffuletta sliders 🐸 Swampy bits (yes… frogs’ legs 👀) 🍲 Jambalaya on the fire 🍩 Beignets to finish It’s hands-on, it’s a bit wild, and you’ll be cooking AND eating your way through the day with us and the legend that is Rach from Winkle Picker 🦀 Expect loads of tips, great produce, a few drinks… and leaving absolutely stuffed. 📅 Sunday 14th June ⏰ 10am – 3:30pm 📍 Backwell 💷 £180 🚨 Limited spots (max 12) — once they’re gone, they’re gone 👉 Book via the website (Link in bio 🔗)

🏉🔥 ENGLAND RUGBY x BIG NATH’S BBQ! 🔥🏉 What. A. Day. We got the call to feed the @englandrugby squad at Pennyhill Park — all thanks to our Bristol boy @ellisgenge linking us up. 🙌🏻 Incredible feedback from the team — and talk of more to come… 👀 Of course we had to bring our hype man, @the_troll_91 , for the day! 🏉 ❤️ P.S. didn’t get as many snaps as we would have liked because we were busy slinging brisket!! 📸

Black flannels and black smokers. Nath knows what it's all about. 🖤 The Outlaw. Solid black. Part of our Heritage Range: built for those who work hard, play harder, and don't need to shout about it. Just like the man himself. Bold as the smoke. Solid as the steel. 🔥 @BigNathBBQ x Dixxon UK 🤝 💥 DIXXON.CO.UK 📲 DIXXON UK APP
