BBQ catering for your event in Bradley
The point of a catered barbecue is that you get to enjoy it. We look after the grill, the serving and the clearing, while you look after your guests. Typical bookings include summer staff days and Fêtes, fairs and sports days, with coleslaw, beef brisket and pulled pork.
In a small place like Bradley, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will plan the route. You’ll know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with a DIY barbecue, no host is stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and the food is cooked properly by people who do it every week. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Why us?
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Meat-free choices on every menu
- Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more
- Served at the time you choose

A closer look at the menu
Pulled pork
Because it’s slow-cooked, pulled pork is ready as soon as we start serving, which keeps the queue moving.
Sausages
Cooked through and browned on the grill, they’re the easy crowd-pleaser.

FAQs for Bradley
How far is Bradley from London?
Roughly 49 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Bradley?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
When should we book BBQ catering?
Once your date is fixed, particularly for a summer weekend. Short notice is still worth a try: use our quote form.
Should we have every meat?
Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. Fewer items keeps service quick.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Do you label the food for allergies?
Yes, ask us to label the food. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
Slow-cooked meats such as pulled pork and brisket are ready to serve from the start, so nobody waits for the first burgers.
China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.

Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Crockery choices
- Travel to Bradley
- Season and day of the week
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- The address or postcode
- Your date and serving time

Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: use our quote form.
Planning the cooking spot

- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- Parking near the grill
