How our BBQ catering works in Hambrook
Some of the best barbecues are the ones where the host gets to sit down. We look after the grill, the serving and the clearing, so your time goes on your guests, not the food. Typical bookings include birthdays and milestone parties and charity fundraisers, serving sausages, coleslaw and pulled pork.
In a small place like Hambrook, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll plan the route. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
We get there well before service, so the grill is up to heat when you are ready to eat.

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Hambrook
Is Hambrook close to London?
About 56 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you barbecue in bad weather?
We cook under cover, so rain is not a problem for the food. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.

Not typically. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket and we’ll advise on the rest.
Is the food cooked safely?
Meat is cooked until it’s steaming hot all the way through, with no pink and juices running clear, following Food Standards Agency advice.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
We cook under cover, so the season does not stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Yes, generally: simple food in a roll suits most children. Give us a rough number of children.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
