Where Fire Meets Flavour
🔥 Pull up a seat by the fire and get ready for an adventure. 🔥
If the crackle of burning logs, the mouthwatering aroma of fire roasted meat, and the joy of cooking in the great outdoors make your heart beat a little faster, then you’ve just found your people. Welcome to Daddy Bear Grills, where we take open fire cooking to the next level, mixing age old traditions with a modern love for flavour, fire, and good company.
This journey started with our head fire chef, Wayne, who learned to cook over the flames from his late mother, Liz the inspiration behind Liz’s Yard. She taught him that cooking isn’t just about food; it’s about gathering, sharing, and making memories. That’s exactly what we’re here to do.
Wayne has always followed his passions with creating amazing businesses. Running three successful businesses through his passion of boxing and sport, delivering in schools and disadvantaged communities. His other passion is cooking over fire, wild camping and being outdoors. In 2024 Wayne entered the British Live Fire Cooking Championships to showcase his skills which led to him being a finalist competing on stage at the iconic Ludlow Castle. It is here where the once dream of Daddy Bear Grills truly ignited.
Wayne, alongside his business mentor and advisor Jeannette, decided it was now time to launch Daddy Bear Grills and combine their skills to build a magnificent business to create the magic for other people.
Jeannette is a highly experienced corporate CEO turned entrepreneur guiding corporate clients, small & mid-size enterprises and executives to new heights. With over 30 years of global expertise, she empowers individuals and Boards through mentoring and strategic advice. Jeannette is also a highly experienced investor with a multi-sector portfolio of businesses. Jeannette’s leadership, backed by her BRAVE BOLD BRILLIANT ethos, fosters high performance in business and drives tangible results.
