BBQ catering in Crown Wood
BBQ catering in Crown Wood, cooked on site
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. For fundraising barbecues and school fairs and summer fêtes, we’ll put together a menu of sausages, beef burgers and coleslaw.
For a barbecue in Crown Wood, the garden is often the best venue. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we will do the rest. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.

How we price a catered barbecue
We work out each quote from:
- The number of people
- Whether you want china
- Travel to Crown Wood
- Site access
Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.
Getting an accurate quote
To check the date and the space, tell us:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- An estimate of numbers
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Anything the venue has asked for
It’s easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
How the day works
Before service, we set up the grill and the serving table on the agreed spot. Then it’s a case of cooking and serving for as long as we’ve agreed. At midsummer, it’s light in Crown Wood until about 9:25pm, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:05pm.
- Tell us what kind of event it is.

Planning help
A catered barbecue compared with other options
Instead of a takeaway delivery, a barbecue becomes part of the event, with the smell drawing people over. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What you get with us
- Pair it with a hog roast if you like
- Hot food straight off the grill
- An itemised quote
- Serving and clearing done for you

Space, access and the venue
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- A clear way in from where we park
- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, so there’s very little left for you to do.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.
What comes off the grill
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Chicken skewers
Chicken on skewers suits mingling guests, on a plate or in a roll.
