BBQ catering in Hempton, cooked on site

Barbecue food is at its best straight from the grill, so we cook and serve through the agreed service time. Give us your serving time and we will work to it. Whether it’s charity fundraisers and sports clubs and team events, we will put together a menu of coleslaw, beef brisket and halloumi skewers for your guests.

In a small place like Hempton, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. Everything is cooked through properly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.

Organising for someone else?

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. Sort that first.

If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

About the food

BBQ ribs

Ribs make a barbecue feel like a feast, alongside the other meats.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, served in a roll with salads.

Is a barbecue right for your event?

Compared with ordering takeaway, the cooking is part of the atmosphere, with the smell drawing people over. What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

Why us?

  • Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more
  • Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
  • Served at the time you choose
  • An itemised quote

How the day works

Running late? Tell us as early as you can, and we’ll work around it. A barbecue is easy to time, as most of it is cooked as people eat. At midsummer, it’s light in Hempton until about 9:30pm, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:10pm.

  1. Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
  2. We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
  3. We arrive in good time and get the barbecue hot.
  4. Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
  5. We clear the serving area and go.

How to prepare

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Let us know about children’s numbers
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
