How our BBQ catering works in Jericho
The point of a catered barbecue is that you get to enjoy it. We look after the grill, the serving and the clearing, so your time goes on your guests, not the food. We’re often asked to cater work barbecues and fundraising barbecues, serving beef brisket, coleslaw and pulled pork.
For a barbecue in Jericho, the garden is frequently the best venue. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we will do the rest. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with raw and cooked food kept apart.

A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with a DIY barbecue, no host is stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and the food is cooked properly by people who do it every week. The menu makes a big difference to the price: 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 book with us
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Hot food straight off the grill
- Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
- Serving and clearing done for you

About the food
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Coleslaw is the natural partner for pulled pork, and salads add freshness.
Chicken skewers
Our chef grills chicken on skewers, for guests who prefer chicken.
Jericho barbecues: local tips
Jericho is about 2 miles west of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. We cover Jericho and its neighbours for events. We cover 443 places in Oxfordshire.
If the day starts at a church like St Barnabas Church, the barbecue can be ready at a hall or garden close by. If you had Oxford University Parks in mind, ask the council or landowner first: barbecues are frequently restricted in parks.
Wherever your event is in OX1 and OX2, we can bring the barbecue to you. Local streets include Abbey Road, Combe Road and Pusey Lane; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. You’ll find Jericho on the A4144, so it’s easy for us to reach with the equipment. Close by, we cover events in Walton Manor (1 mile north), St John Street area (1 mile south-east), Park Town (1 mile north-east), Norham Manor (1 mile north-east) and Osney (1 mile south-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Didcot (10 miles south), Bicester (11 miles north-east), Abingdon-on-Thames (6 miles south), Witney (10 miles west), Carterton (14 miles west) and Thame (13 miles east).
A little further out are Oxford University Press Museum (under half a mile south-east) and Clarendon Shopping Centre (0.7 miles south-east). Green spaces nearby include Hook Meadow and The Trap Grounds and Harcourt Hill.
- Schools near Jericho include The Eckersley School of English (0.5 miles south-east) and Oxford Academy (1.1 miles north)
- Nearby, you’ll find The Rickety Press pub (less than half a mile south-west)
- Local facilities include Somerville College Library (under half a mile east)
How the day works
If timings shift on the day, let your contact know, and we will adjust where we can. A barbecue is easy to time, as most of it is cooked as people eat. Evening barbecues in Jericho need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:10pm. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.
- Send us the date, the place and roughly how many.
- Pick the menu with us.
- We check the space and quote.
- We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
Ask for a quote
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so it’s easy to compare like for like. Use our quote form.

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
We cook as your guests come up, and our staff serve and keep the queue moving.

Jericho: your questions answered
Can you do a barbecue in Oxford University Parks?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is Jericho close to London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cater in Jericho?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Jericho and the rest of Oxfordshire included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
When should we book BBQ catering?
Once your date is fixed, especially for June to September. But ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
How do you handle food safety?
Cooking properly is our job: separate equipment for raw and cooked food, and everything cooked through.
Is the meat halal?
We don’t. Please arrange halal food separately if anyone needs it; our vegetarian and vegan options are available.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Of course. With salads and potatoes, it’s a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
How many meats should we choose?
Not typically. Pick a mix of grilled and slow-cooked meats and we’ll advise on the rest.
Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
