BBQ catering for your event in Benham Hill
Some of the best barbecues are the ones where the host gets to sit down. Our chef cooks, our staff serve and we tidy up afterwards, so your time goes on your guests, not the food. Typical bookings include club open days and evening wedding food, with beef burgers, halloumi skewers and pulled pork.
Around Benham Hill, a garden with room to spare is all you need. A catered barbecue fits right in, with nobody you know stuck at the grill. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.

How the day works
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we time our arrival around your serving time. That keeps everything hot and fresh. Evening barbecues in Benham Hill need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:25pm in June but only about 7:10pm in late September. Plan lights for the serving area after that.
- Send a photo of where the barbecue could go.
- We check it and send a price.
- On the day, we cook on site under cover.
- We serve as your guests come up.
- We clear up so you do not have to.

Sausages
Children typically head straight for the sausages, and they’re easy to eat standing up.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, in a roll, with salad on the side.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue if a few things are right. Check these:
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
- Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Working with your venue
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
