About our BBQ catering in Holton Hill
There’s more to a catered barbecue than burgers: slow-cooked pulled pork, sliced beef brisket and glazed ribs make it feel like a meal, with salads, coleslaw and potatoes on the side. For informal weddings and community fun days, we’ll put together a menu of BBQ ribs, sausages and beef burgers.
Near Holton Hill, barbecues frequently happen in gardens and fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will handle the rest. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Holton Hill: your questions answered
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Holton Hill?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Should we have every meat?
Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. Fewer items keeps service quick.
What do children normally eat?
Typically, yes: simple food in a roll suits most children. Tell us how many children to expect.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Of course. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides; ask about china if you’d like it.
Do you cater for vegetarians?
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V) and a vegan burger or sausage (Ve). Let us know how many to expect.
Is the meat halal?
No, we do not offer halal meat. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.
Space, access and the venue
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
- Parking near the grill
- The venue’s agreement for an outside caterer

For planners, venues and organisers

If you’re a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
