About our BBQ catering in Liss Forest
Whether it is twenty friends in a garden or a whole workforce in a car park, a barbecue can be planned around the size of your event. Give us an idea of numbers and we will suggest a menu. On the menu are beef burgers, coleslaw and BBQ ribs, and we are regularly asked to cater informal weddings and neighbourhood parties.
A barbecue in the countryside near Liss Forest makes a lovely summer party. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather, and think about lighting if it runs late. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Is a barbecue right for your event?
Instead of a takeaway delivery, the cooking is part of the atmosphere, and the grill becomes a gathering point. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Organising for someone else?
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
- Ask which items contain gluten
Slow-cooked meats such as pulled pork and brisket are ready to serve from the start, so nobody waits for the first burgers.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
