BBQ catering in Bodiam, cooked on site
A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. A catered barbecue takes all of that off your hands, so you can enjoy your own event. Whether it is school fairs and summer fêtes and street parties, we’ll put together a menu of pulled pork, sausages and halloumi skewers and more.
Near Bodiam, barbecues frequently happen in gardens and fields. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the route. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.

- Request gluten-free rolls
