How our BBQ catering works in Lower Green
Some hosts in Lower Green pair a barbecue with a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. Ask and we’ll quote for both. We serve BBQ ribs, pulled pork and coleslaw, and we are frequently booked for back-garden get-togethers and sports clubs and team events.
In a small place like Lower Green, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
All the cooking and serving equipment comes with us, so you don’t need to find grills or tongs.
Ask about china for a sit-down meal, quoted separately.
Organising for someone else?
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
What happens on the day
We set up where we agreed and keep out of the way, and the rest of the space is yours. We will place the grill so smoke drifts away from guests. Sunset in Lower Green is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.
