About our BBQ catering in Barton
Hosting a barbecue generally means shopping, prepping, cooking and clearing. With BBQ catering, all of that is done for you, so you can enjoy your own event. On the menu are chicken skewers, sausages and coleslaw, and we are often booked for cricket, football and rugby club days and leaving and retirement parties.
Around Barton, a garden with room to spare is all you need. It suits that kind of day, with nobody you know stuck at the grill. Everything is cooked through properly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
- Think about who does not eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
All the cooking and serving equipment comes with us, so there’s no need to borrow a grill.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.
What BBQ catering costs
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Distance from us
- The number of people
- The date and time of year
- Access to the cooking area
The menu makes a big difference to the price: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.
What we need to know
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- Any venue rules
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- An estimate of numbers
It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
For event organisers in Barton
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
