Hammer's House of Hog

09/27/2026

Very good chilly Sunday morning folks. And it is the last day of the season for Hammer's House of Hog!

Ever thankful to Oliver and the South Okanagan community for 17 (yes, 17!!) seasons! This year saw 6000 pounds of pork butt, 800 pounds of St Louis ribs & 600 pounds of pork belly consumed by you hungry people! Thank you, thank you always appreciate your ravenous appetites for my barbeque.

Open today at 11 as usual, closed when sold out. Pork belly is on the menu, limit is 2 large portions per visit.

Again much thanks, merci beaucoup & muchas gracias a todos. See you back at Lion's Park April 2027!

Good morning Oliver. House of Hog will be open again today Friday September 4 after a couple of rainy days. 11am until 2 (or sold out).

Last day of the 17th season will now be Friday October 2 (moved up from Oct 9).

Winter Shoulders will be available for pickup starting September 16. What, you ask, is a winter shoulder? It is a smoked pork shoulder ready pull, along with your choice of sauce. Perfect for portioning out and freezing and enjoying through the winter. Shoulders are $19/lbs, typical is 6lbs.

Contact me here or text or stop by and place your order. Limited spots so get your order in soon.

Thanks all, stay safe.

Good day folks. Just a couple of items for your attention.

First of all, my thoughts are with those in the Summerland area who have been affected by the Bald Range fire. And a heartfelt thanks to all the first responders and volunteers who have been working tirelessly. I have experienced a lengthy evacuation and it is not something I would wish on anyone.

Hammer's will be closed this coming Sunday August 23 for a private event. And for those who like to plan longer term, last day of the season will be Friday October 9!

Finally, a few of you may have seen this article in the local news. Nice write-up by Sheldon, much appreciated.
