About our BBQ catering in Church End
For bigger events in Church End, a barbecue can sit alongside a hog roast, so there is a centrepiece and plenty of choice. Ask and we will quote for both. Whether it is cricket, football and rugby club days and Fêtes, fairs and sports days, we can cook coleslaw, beef burgers and pulled pork for your guests.
Country barbecues near Church End are hard to beat on a summer evening. Plan shelter in case it rains, and think about lighting if it runs late. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.
Before you choose a spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
- Somewhere for us to park close to the cooking spot
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
Slow-cooked meats such as pulled pork and brisket are ready to serve from the start, so nobody waits for the first burgers.
Pulled pork and brisket make the menu feel more substantial.
Step by step
When we arrive, we position the grill under cover and get it up to heat. Then our chef cooks through the service time, worked around your serving time. By late September, sunset in Church End is about 7:10pm; in December it is about 4:00pm. For a late-season barbecue, lunchtime is easiest.
