It’s BBQ season

Hawkins Barbecue is excited to announce that it will be bringing something saucy to the South of the Island this summer. The authentic American BBQ restaurant will be popping up at Foraging Vintners in Port Erin starting 17th March, providing a range of delicious menu options that will tantalize the taste buds of foodies and meat lovers everywhere.

Proudly only utilising Manx meats, the new BBQ outfit will offer some familiar options like Pulled Pork and Brisket, which can either be ordered by weight or in the form of unique sliders (small burgers) - which can sometimes take up to 18 hours to smoke!

Not only this, for all the vegetarian and vegan lovers out there, they also offer smokey bbq jackfruit and other mouth-watering options.

The company, which started during lockdown, is led by Founder and Owner/Chef Matt Hawkins, who took inspiration from wellestablished restaurants in London, Bristol, and of course the USA. "We are thrilled to bring our version of authentic American BBQ to the Isle of Man," says Matt. "Our aim is to provide affordable comfort food that everyone can enjoy and with the support of Foraging Vintners, we are confident that we can contribute to the evergrowing culinary offer in Port Erin and the island as a whole."
