BBQ catering in Booker, cooked on site

We cook outdoors, under cover, on a spot we agree with you, away from buildings, fences and overhanging branches. Send us a photo of the space and we will confirm it. On the menu are pulled pork, chicken skewers and beef brisket, and we are regularly asked to cater work barbecues and charity fundraisers.

Around Booker, a garden with room to spare is all you need. It suits that kind of day, and you will not spend it cooking. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself

Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, which helps when some guests don’t eat pork. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so for bigger events, why not both?. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.

Why book our barbecue in Booker

  • Six meats to choose from
  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option
  • Hot food straight off the grill
  • Planned to your running order

See our pricing and BBQ menu ideas.

Step by step

We set up where we agreed and keep out of the way, so your event carries on around us. Smoke drifts, so we will think about the wind with you. Sunset in Booker is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.

  1. We start with your date, venue and numbers.
  2. Choose your meats and sides.
  3. We check the space and quote.
  4. We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We clear up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Include children in your numbers
  • Think about where the smoke will drift
  • Arrange lighting for a late barbecue

Planners, venues and businesses

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

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 everyone in the loop.

FAQs for Booker

Do you cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?

What’s the nearest station to Booker?

The closest is High Wycombe station, roughly 2.1 miles away.

Can you serve the barbecue on plates?

Yes. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides.

What meats do you barbecue?

Six meats, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.

Is the meat halal?

No, we don’t offer halal meat. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.

Do you bring plates and clear up?

Yes, we clear up after service, so there’s very little washing up. Ask if you’d like china.

How far ahead should we book?

Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs

You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:

  • Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
  • Tell us if anyone doesn’t eat beef
  • Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
  • Think about who does not eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice

On the day, we arrive in good time to set up, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.

Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.

What BBQ catering costs

Here’s what affects the price:

  • How many people are eating
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Travel to Booker
  • Crockery choices

The menu makes a big difference to the price: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

Getting an accurate quote

These are the details we need:

  • Roughly how many people
  • Dietary requirements
  • Where the event is
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

Planning a barbecue in Booker

Booker is about 2 miles west of High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire. We’re happy to travel to Booker for events and the places nearby. Booker is one of 263 towns and villages in Buckinghamshire we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Booker to Reading (about 14 miles away).

PTAs at schools such as Booker Hill School frequently look for a barbecue for fairs and sports days. Churches such as Church of Christ the Servant King rarely have room for a barbecue, but a hall or home nearby usually does.

Anywhere in HP12, HP11 and SL7, we can cook on site for your guests. Your event could be at a house on Ash Road, New Road and Horns Lane or the roads around them, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the barbecue.
