BBQ catering in Chineham, cooked on site
For bigger events in Chineham, a barbecue can sit alongside a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. Ask and we’ll quote for both. Popular choices include BBQ ribs, coleslaw and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for back-garden get-togethers and sports clubs and team events.
Around Chineham, a garden with room to spare is all you need. It suits that kind of day, and you won’t spend it cooking. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.
Where the barbecue can go in Chineham
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
- A spot where smoke will not blow into the house or marquee
- A level lawn, patio or hard standing
