The Southern Kitchen Larder

Authentic American BBQ cusisine and culture, made in south London. For five years we’ve been smoking meat for weddings, parties and events across London and the South East. Now we’re bringing it to your kitchen, alongside our small-batch range of BBQ rubs inspired by real regional barbecue traditions.

Why The Southern Kitchen

  • Real barbecue, done properly. We smoke low and slow over hardwood, for as long as it takes, with no shortcuts and nothing faked.

  • Rooted in real foodways. Our cooking draws on the Southern US traditions and their West African roots that shaped American barbecue, not a generic BBQ menu.

  • Ingredients worth the wait. High-welfare Ginger Pig pork, real butter, fresh jalapeños and spices blended in small batches.

  • Founder-made. Every dish and every blend is made by us, from scratch, in south London. No mass production.

  • Trusted for five years. We’ve been feeding weddings, parties and events across London and the South East since day one.

Smokehouse Fridays

Once a month, smoked to order

Once a month we fire up the smoker for Smokehouse Friday. We smoke high-welfare Ginger Pig pork overnight in our south London smokehouse, pull it by hand and finish it with our tangy North Carolina sauce. Then we vacuum-seal it fresh, ready for you to heat and serve. Add a slab of our fresh jalapeño cornbread and dinner’s sorted.

From the Larder: Rubs & Spices

Our Carolina, Texas and Cajun-style rubs are blended in small batches here in the UK. They bring bold, authentic flavour to brisket, pork, chicken, veg and more, and work just as well for grilling and roasting as for low-and-slow cooking. Available to order any time.

Why choose our Rubs:

​

  • Small‑Batch, Big Flavour - Every rub is blended in limited batches for freshness, consistency and bold flavour.​

​​

  • Inspired by Real Regional Barbecue - Carolina tang, Texas smoke, Cajun heat — each blend has its own story.

​

  • Crafted in the UK - Authentic American flavours, made locally for fast delivery and maximum freshness.

​

  • Founder‑Made - No mass production. No shortcuts. Just honest, flavour‑first cooking.
