Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed

- Tell us if anyone doesn’t eat beef
When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot tidy.
For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.
BBQ catering for your event in Hart Plain
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 are often asked to cater charity fundraisers and big birthday parties, serving coleslaw, beef brisket and beef burgers.
Around Hart Plain, a garden with room to spare is all you need. It suits that kind of day, and you won’t spend it cooking. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve.
What we serve, dish by dish
Chicken skewers
Chicken skewers are grilled on site, a lighter choice than burgers.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and jacket potatoes, depending on the occasion.

Hart Plain questions
Which station is closest to Hart Plain?
The closest is Rowlands Castle station, roughly 3.1 miles away.
How far is Hart Plain from London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.
Can you cater in Hart Plain?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
We bring plates and clear up after service.

Can it be a sit-down meal?
Yes. Plates come as standard, with sides such as salads and potatoes.
Is the meat halal?
No. Please arrange halal food separately if anyone needs it.
For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
How the day works
Grilled food is at its best when it is hot, so we cook and serve through the agreed time. Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the start, which keeps the queue moving. In Hart Plain, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
- We set up under cover before service.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Think about lights for the serving area after dark
