BBQ catering in Blashford
How our BBQ catering works in Blashford
Food from a barbecue is best eaten hot off the grill, which is why we cook and serve as your guests come up. Give us your serving time and we will work to it. We are frequently asked to cater relaxed weddings and evening receptions and neighbourhood parties, with beef brisket, chicken skewers and beef burgers.
In a small place like Blashford, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.
For planners, venues and organisers
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.

Common questions in Blashford
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Blashford?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Yes, generally: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Tell us how many children to expect.
How much choice do we need?
You do not need everything. Pick a mix of grilled and slow-cooked meats and we’ll advise on the rest.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
Most barbecues are in summer, but we can cook in any season. Plan shelter for your guests.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
Yes. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.
Is barbecued chicken safe?
Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with raw and cooked food kept apart, in line with Food Standards Agency guidance.
What if it rains?
The cooking area is covered, so it is guests who need a wet-weather plan.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot tidy.

What affects the price in Blashford
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Plates or china
- The date and time of year
- The number of people
- Distance from us
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Dietary requirements

What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- A green light from whoever owns the site

- A spot well clear of buildings
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

- We suggest a menu and send a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- We serve as people come up.
- We tidy up before we go.
Preparing for the day
