The Best BBQ Packs and Perfect Picnic Hampers by Dukeshill 

BBQ season is here so entertain your guests in succulent style with the very best British produce from Dukeshill, the home of luxury fine foods. 

Founded over 30 years ago, Dukeshill had a vision of producing the very best hams, cured the “old-fashioned” way, with a real focus on flavour and texture. This commitment to quality led to Dukeshill being selected by some of London’s most discerning Food Halls including Selfridges, Harrods, and Fortnum & Mason to produce their hams, and in 2003 they were awarded a Royal Warrant for manufacturing hams from HM The Queen – the ultimate accolade! 

Still renowned for its uncompromising attitude towards provenance and quality, Dukeshill produces more than just first-class hams. Maintaining its traditional approach to crafting fine foods and working in partnership with British farmers and small artisan producers, Dukeshill now produces and supplies a wonderful selection of cured and fresh meats, smoked fish, cheeses, puddings, hampers and more, including its special summer offering. 

Gourmet BBQ boxes, an array of hampers and celebratory centrepieces are all part of the collection which presents something for every seasonal occasion; from al fresco banquets and BBQs to picnics and outdoor parties. Read on to discover more about the summer collection, all of which can be delivered direct to your door.  

BBQ Feast Box 

Bursting full of the finest goodies, this is ideal for a special barbecue party. Highlights include the slow-cooked Grass Fed Aberdeen Angus Beef Rib and BBQ Pork Rib Racks, both deliciously tender and ready to just fall off the bone. Burger lovers will be more than impressed with the combination of steak burgers, which feature the very best cuts of prime West Country Beef, and the all-meat bacon burgers, that combine smoked and unsmoked streaky bacon, prime British pork shoulder meat and Dukeshill’s own blend of seasoning. There’s also a delicious spicy Mediterranean marinade glazed onto the free-range chicken wings and drumsticks, with the extra meaty pork sausages included also guaranteed to be a firm favourite amongst friends and family.
