About our BBQ catering in Beech Hill
A barbecue suits mixed groups well, because there is beef, chicken and pork to choose from, and proper vegetarian and vegan options too. We’re often asked to cater 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays and community fun days, with beef burgers, coleslaw and halloumi skewers.
In a small place like Beech Hill, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will plan the route. Everything is cooked through properly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.

Before you choose a spot
The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what we look for:
- Room for a serving table next to the grill
- A level lawn, patio or hard standing
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

How it works
On the day, we position the grill under cover and get it up to heat. Then our chef cooks through the service time, worked around your serving time. For an evening barbecue in Beech Hill, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:10pm. Plan lights for the serving area after that.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

Sausages
Sausages go down well with younger guests, and they’re easy to eat standing up.

Pulled pork in a roll with coleslaw is hard to beat.
Beech Hill: your questions answered
Can you do a barbecue in Swallowfield Meadow?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Is Beech Hill close to London?
About 40 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
How soon do barbecue dates go?
Once your date is fixed, particularly for a summer weekend. Short notice is still worth a try: fill in our quote form.
Will guests know what’s in each dish?
We give you allergen information for every dish, and we can label the vegetarian and vegan options.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
Should we have every meat?
You don’t need everything. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
Burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket, with halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
What do you need from the venue?
The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Let us know about the site and we will confirm what we need.
Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
All the cooking and serving equipment comes with us, so there’s no need to borrow a grill.
For a more filling menu, add pulled pork or brisket.
What BBQ catering costs
Your quote depends on:
- The journey to the venue
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Plates or china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
The menu makes a big difference to the price: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
Details that help
When you get in touch, please mention:
- Roughly how many people
- Allergies we should know about
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We will check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.
