BBQ catering for Knowl Hill
BBQ catering in Knowl Hill, cooked on site
We cook outdoors, under cover, on a spot we agree with you, well clear of walls, marquee sides and trees. Tell us about the space in Knowl Hill and we will check it works. We serve chicken skewers, coleslaw and pulled pork, and we are often booked for back-garden get-togethers and birthdays and milestone parties.
In a small place like Knowl Hill, 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 plan the route. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.
Where the barbecue can go in Knowl Hill
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- Room for a serving table next to the grill
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
