How the day works
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. It means food comes off the grill hot. A summer barbecue in Littlemore stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. In late September, it is dark by about 7:10pm.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check availability and the space for the barbecue and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive in good time, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Let us know about tight access

Why choose BBQ catering in Littlemore?
Next to a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so for bigger events, why not both?. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What you get with us
- Meat-free choices on every menu
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Hot food straight off the grill
- Pair it with a hog roast if you like

Organising for someone else?
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
Our staff keep the serving table tidy and topped up, right through the service.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
