Planning an event in Foxcotte?
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
How our BBQ catering works in Foxcotte
For bigger events in Foxcotte, a barbecue can sit alongside a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. We can quote for either or both. We serve BBQ ribs, coleslaw and beef brisket, and typical bookings are for leaving and retirement parties and family celebrations.
A barbecue in the countryside near Foxcotte makes a lovely summer party. Plan shelter in case it rains, and think about lighting if it runs late. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls.
How we price a catered barbecue
Each price is built from:
- Plates or china
- Numbers
- The date and time of year
- Distance from us
Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Details that help
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Roughly how many people
- Where the event is
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Anything the venue has asked for
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Send us your details through our quote form.
Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with hiring a venue’s in-house menu, you pick the meats, the sides and the meat-free options yourself, and eat outdoors. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote. Give us the address for an accurate figure.
Why us?
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- An itemised quote
- Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
