BBQ catering in Leckford, served hot
Food from a barbecue is best eaten hot off the grill, which is why we cook and serve as your guests come up. Give us your serving time and we will plan around it. For school fairs and summer fêtes and reunions and family get-togethers, we will put together a menu of BBQ ribs, coleslaw and sausages.
In a small place like Leckford, 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. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.
Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
How it works
We arrive in good time before service, so the barbecue is ready when you are. Your guests will smell it before they see it. At midsummer, it’s light in Leckford until about 9:25pm, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. In late September, it is dark by about 7:10pm.
- Send a photo of where the barbecue could go.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- We grill outdoors at your event.
- Our team serves hot food through the agreed time.
- We leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Arrange lighting for a late barbecue
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Common questions in Leckford
Could you cook in Longstock Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is Leckford too small for a barbecue?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is clearing up included?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
Should we have every meat?
Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. Fewer items keeps service quick.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, on site, outdoors and under cover, and our staff serve and clear.
How far ahead should we book a barbecue?
As soon as you know the date, particularly for a summer weekend. Short notice is still worth a try: send us your details through 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.
Can it be a sit-down meal?
Yes. Plates come as standard, with sides such as salads and potatoes.
Before you choose a spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
- A wet-weather plan for your guests
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
