A barbecue near Fulmer
How our BBQ catering works in Fulmer
A good barbecue is about more than burgers: slow-cooked pulled pork, sliced beef brisket and glazed ribs make it feel like a meal, served with salads, coleslaw and potatoes. We’re often asked to cater club open days and relaxed weddings and evening receptions, with BBQ ribs, beef brisket and halloumi skewers.
A barbecue in the countryside near Fulmer makes a lovely summer party. Plan shelter in case it rains, and think about lighting if it runs late. You’ll know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.
Common questions in Fulmer
Can you do a barbecue in Bulstrode Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Do you come out to small places like Fulmer?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How do you handle food safety?
Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with raw and cooked food kept apart, following Food Standards Agency advice.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
Beef burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can you cater in Fulmer?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Fulmer and Slough. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Typically, yes: simple food in a roll suits most children. Give us a rough number of children.
For planners, venues and organisers
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
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. Get that agreed before booking.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, so there’s very little left for you to do.
Pulled pork and brisket make the menu feel more substantial.
How we price a catered barbecue
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Season and day of the week
- Travel to Fulmer
- Numbers
- Whether you want china
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

A barbecue or other catering?
Next to a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so for bigger events, why not both?. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
