Former England Cricketer Matthew Hoggard Launches Barbecue School

Matthew Hoggard, the legendary bowler who played a pivotal role in England's historic 2005 Ashes victory, has ventured into a new endeavor - running a barbecue school. The 67-Test cricketer, affectionately known as 'Hoggy,' has swapped his cricket whites for an apron and now spearheads a cookery school and grill shop.

In an interview on talkSPORT Breakfast, Hoggard discussed his latest campaign with Australian wine brand Andrew Peace. Sharing his enthusiasm for barbecuing, Hoggard revealed the creation of Hoggy's Grill school and his partnership with Peace.

"I'm extremely passionate about barbecuing," said Hoggard. "I run a barbecue school, Hoggy's Grill school, where we teach participants various grilling techniques."

The former Test cricketer also spoke about the common issues faced during barbecuing and the importance of mastering the art of grilling. According to Hoggard, fast-paced shopping at supermarkets often results in high-stress situations, leading to poor temperature control and burned food.

To resolve these issues, Hoggard and Peace have collaborated to create a curated menu that caters to families for an affordable price. For 30 quid, a family of four can enjoy a delicious meal, complete with a bottle of Peace's wine.

Hoggard represented England for eight years, starring in all five Tests during the iconic 2005 Ashes series. He showcased his exceptional bowling skills by taking 16 wickets, with his best score being 4/97 at The Oval. Hoggard's unforgettable batting performance at Trent Bridge in 2005, alongside Ashley Giles, ensured England's victory and solidified their positions as unlikely heroes.

After retiring from cricket in 2013, Hoggard captained Leicestershire from 2010 and spent 13 years with Yorkshire before that. The former bowler expressed his delight with England's recent performance against the West Indies at Edgbaston.
