BBQ catering for Hungerford

BBQ catering in Hungerford, cooked on site

Hosting a barbecue typically means shopping, prepping, cooking and clearing. A catered barbecue takes all of that off your hands, so you can spend the time with your guests. Popular choices include pulled pork, beef brisket and sausages, and typical bookings are for relaxed weddings and evening receptions and summer staff days.

For a barbecue in Hungerford, the garden is frequently the best venue. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we’ll do the rest. All the barbecue, none of the effort: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.

What the cooking area needs

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:

  • The venue’s agreement for an outside caterer
  • Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
  • Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains

A catered barbecue compared with other options

Next to a buffet, barbecue food is hot and cooked to order, and nothing sits out all afternoon. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

Why book with us

  • Our chef at the grill, not you
  • Our staff serve and clear
  • An itemised quote
  • Barbecue and hog roast together for big events

Read our prices page or menu ideas for your barbecue.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:

  • Let us know roughly how many children are coming
  • Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
  • Think about who does not eat pork or beef when choosing the meats
  • Ask which items contain gluten

Our staff keep the serving table tidy and topped up, so the barbecue looks as good at the end as at the start.

For a more filling menu, add pulled pork or brisket.

Beef burgers

Our chef grills beef burgers to order, hot off the barbecue.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.

Working with your venue

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
