BBQ catering in Littleton, cooked on site
Barbecue food is at its best straight from the grill, which is why we cook and serve as your guests come up. Give us your serving time and we’ll work to it. On the menu are halloumi skewers, beef burgers and BBQ ribs, and typical bookings are for summer staff days and fundraising days.
In a small place like Littleton, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the route. You get a barbecue without the work: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.
What the cooking area needs
Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue if a few things are right. Check these:
- Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
- Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
- A wet-weather plan for your guests
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Instead of asking a friend to man the grill, a catered barbecue means everyone gets to be a guest, and the food is cooked by people who do it every week. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

Questions from Littleton
Could you cook in Penton Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How far is Littleton from London?
Roughly 17 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Of course. With salads and potatoes, it is a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
What do you need from the venue?
The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Let us know about the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes, and it is a popular combination. Ask and we will quote for the mix.
What do children usually eat?
Yes, generally: simple food in a roll suits most children. Tell us how many children to expect.

For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
How the day works
Grilled food is at its best when it is hot, so we cook to order through service. Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the start, so nobody waits for the first round. Sunset in Littleton is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so an early-evening barbecue is typically in daylight.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the cooking spot and quote.
- We arrive in good time and get the barbecue hot.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
