How our BBQ catering works in Gosford
A barbecue is one of the easiest ways to feed a crowd in Gosford: plenty of choice, nothing fussy and everyone happy. The difference with a catered barbecue is that nobody from your party is stuck at the grill. We’re often asked to cater 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays and school fairs and summer fêtes, with pulled pork, coleslaw and beef burgers.
A barbecue in the countryside near Gosford makes a lovely summer party. Plan shelter in case it rains. You get a barbecue without the work: we shop, cook, serve and clear.

What happens on the day
