BBQ catering for your event in Little Ann
For bigger events in Little Ann, a barbecue can sit alongside a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. We can quote for either or both. Popular choices include pulled pork, coleslaw and chicken skewers, and we’re regularly asked to cater team days and staff summer parties and street parties.
Country barbecues near Little Ann are hard to beat on a summer evening. Plan shelter in case it rains, and think about lighting if it runs late. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.
