By the end of 2024 we had run more than fifty events with the Bison Hill Grill. Private gardens, corporate days, a wedding, a food festival, two-day private cooks — every format that live-fire catering takes in Surrey, Sussex, and Kent. A full year of the operation running at pace produced more product and operational […]
If you want to know whether kit actually works, run it through October in Surrey. The conditions in Surrey, Sussex, and Kent in October are not dramatic in the way of a Scottish winter or a coastal storm. They’re something more insidious: 8 to 14°C, variable wind, occasional rain, days that start dry and end […]
We passed 100 verified five-star reviews in September 2024. Trustpilot, Google, on-site — customers who bought the product, used it, and came back to say something about it. Numbers like this are easy to inflate. Buy reviews, incentivise them, chase them with follow-up emails that make it easier to click five stars than think about […]
There’s a version of outdoor cooking culture that treats September as the end of the season. Pack up the grill, put the cover on, wait for next May. That version doesn’t exist here. September in the UK is when outdoor cooking gets interesting. The temperature drops — sometimes sharply — wind picks up, and the […]
July and August 2024 were the most demanding eight weeks the Bison Hill Grill has seen. Multiple events per week at several points across the summer, a team of four running entirely on Bison Hill kit, and a range of occasions that tested every product in a way that a single cook or a controlled […]
The Bison Hill Grill is our mobile open-air kitchen, operating at events across Surrey, Sussex, and Kent. It’s how we do live-fire cooking in public — the commercial expression of everything the brand is built around. It’s also, not incidentally, the most rigorous product testing environment we have. Customer reviews are valuable. They tell us […]
Customers had been asking for a personalised version of the Gaucho BBQ Grill Apron since we launched in November 2022. The request was consistent enough to log: birthdays, Father’s Day, Christmas, wedding gifts. People who already owned a Gaucho and wanted one with their name on it. People buying for someone else who wanted to […]
A focus on the best product means we don’t always need to use flashy packaging for online orders. We believe in minimising waste throughout the entire shopping experience. When you order online from us, you can opt to not receive the flashy marketing packaging you might see on store shelves. Those eye-catching displays use a […]
We are part of a community with a love of live-fire cooking. We are also pleased that our business can support independent living of people with learning disabilities as they provide personalisation of our BBQ Apron. The Gaucho BBQ Apron will have an individual’s name or text of their choosing embroidered under the chest-level Bison […]
Making the BBQ Block generates offcuts. When you cut a live-edge oak plank to board dimensions, the pieces that come off the ends and edges are too small for another board. They’re not useless — they’re just small. The question of what to do with them came up early in the production process. The first […]
