About Us

Welcome to Henges, your ultimate destination for all things BBQ and smoking! Based in Swindon, Wiltshire, our name is inspired by the ancient stone circles, or henges, that date back to around 4500 BC, most famously embodied by Stonehenge in Wiltshire. These monumental structures were not just architectural marvels; they were vibrant gathering places for communities across the ages.

Historical research has revealed a fascinating aspect of Stonehenge: it was a central hub for feasting and socializing. People from various regions of the UK would converge upon this iconic site, bringing with them pigs to roast and share in grand communal feasts. This rich tradition of coming together to celebrate with food around a fire is at the heart of what we do.

At Henges, we embrace the spirit of these ancient gatherings. Just as the builders of Stonehenge would unite to enjoy roasted meats and camaraderie, we aim to bring people together through the timeless art of BBQ and smoking. Our passion is to provide you with the best tips, techniques, and tools to create memorable feasts that echo the communal spirit of our ancestors.

Whether you’re a seasoned pitmaster or just starting on your smoking journey, Henges is here to guide and inspire you. Our website is a treasure trove of recipes, product reviews, and expert advice, all designed to help you perfect your BBQ skills. Join us in celebrating the age-old tradition of roasting, feasting, and bringing people together, just as it was done millennia ago at the henges of ancient Britain.
