Who books BBQ catering in Maresfield?

Cooked on site, served hot

In Maresfield, we cook barbecues for all sorts of events. Popular bookings include:

  • Fundraising barbecues
  • Cricket, football and rugby club days
  • Birthdays and milestone parties
  • Leaving and retirement parties

Thinking of a barbecue in West Park? Many parks ban barbecues, and catering needs the landowner’s permission, generally the council’s.

For event organisers in Maresfield

Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

How we price a catered barbecue

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • The journey to the venue
  • Season and day of the week
  • Site access
  • Numbers

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.

What to tell us

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • An estimate of numbers
  • Allergies we should know about
  • The date and time of the event

Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself

Next to a fixed venue menu, a catered barbecue lets you choose exactly what’s served. The menu makes a big difference to the price: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

Why Maresfield hosts choose us

  • An itemised quote
  • Planned to your running order
  • Our staff serve and clear
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

The menu, dish by dish

BBQ ribs

Ribs are a favourite with keen barbecue fans.

Pulled pork

Pulled pork is ready to serve from the start of service, so nobody waits for the grill.

What the cooking area needs

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:

  • Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
  • Somewhere for us to park close to the cooking spot
  • Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Questions from Maresfield

Is Maresfield too small for a barbecue?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Could you cook in West Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.

Is a barbecue good for children?

Usually, yes: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Give us a rough number of children.

Do you provide china?

We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

Can we have a barbecue in winter?

The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.

Do you label the food for allergies?

Yes, ask us to label the food. Tell us about allergies in advance.

Do you cover Maresfield?

We do. Send us the address and we will check the date.

Should we have every meat?

Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. A shorter menu also speeds up service.

Allergies and dietary needs

We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:

  • Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
  • Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten

When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, so there’s very little left for you to do.

Pulled pork and brisket make the menu feel more substantial.

Step by step

Barbecue food is best straight off the grill, so we cook and serve through the agreed time. Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the start, so nobody waits for the first round. For an evening barbecue in Maresfield, think about light: it’s light until about 9:15pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.

  1. Start with the occasion, the date and the venue.
  2. We suggest a menu and send a quote.
  3. We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
  4. We serve as people come up.
  5. We tidy up before we go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Tell us roughly how many children are coming
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Give us a contact number for the day
