FAQs for Buriton
Could you cook in Ditcham Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Buriton?
Petersfield station, about 2.1 miles north of the centre.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Tell us your numbers and we will suggest a split.
What does the venue need to provide?
The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Let us know about the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
Can you do halal?
No, we don’t offer halal meat. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.
How soon do barbecue dates go?
Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Midweek dates are usually easier to get. Fill in our quote form.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
We cook under cover, so the season doesn’t stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.

- Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Step by step
Grilled food is at its best when it’s hot, so we cook and serve through the agreed time. Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the start, which keeps the queue moving. At midsummer, it’s light in Buriton until about 9:20pm, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:05pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the barbecue and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive in good time, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
- We cook and serve when you are ready to eat.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Getting ready for the day

What comes off the grill
Beef brisket
Brisket makes a barbecue feel like a proper meal, especially at a wedding or work event.
BBQ ribs
Ribs make a barbecue feel like a feast, alongside the other meats.
Is a barbecue right for your event?
Compared with hiring a venue’s in-house menu, you pick the meats, the sides and the meat-free options yourself. What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
- Our chef at the grill, so you don’t have to be
- A full barbecue menu, not just burgers
- Meat-free choices cooked separately
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
