BBQ catering in Bramshaw
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Crockery choices
- The number of people
- Distance from us
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
The menu makes a big difference to the price: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
What to tell us
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- An estimate of numbers
- Your date and serving time
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your event for a quote: fill in our quote form.
How our BBQ catering works in Bramshaw
Barbecues are good at pleasing everyone, with beef, chicken and pork on the menu, plus halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. Popular choices include chicken skewers, sausages and pulled pork, and we’re regularly asked to cater garden parties and birthdays and milestone parties.
Country barbecues near Bramshaw are hard to beat on a summer evening. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.
Before you choose a spot
The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what helps:
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
- A wet-weather plan for your guests
- A spot where smoke will not blow into the house or marquee
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
