Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Next to a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, which helps when some guests do not eat pork. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so some events have both. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.

About our BBQ catering in Mayfield
Barbecues are good at pleasing everyone, because there is beef, chicken and pork to choose from, and proper vegetarian and vegan options too. Whether it’s community fun days and cricket, football and rugby club days, we will put together a menu of halloumi skewers, sausages and chicken skewers and more.
In a small place like Mayfield, 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 will know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

What happens on the day
We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then it is a case of cooking and serving through the time you’ve chosen. Evening barbecues in Mayfield need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:15pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:00pm. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the cooking spot and quote.
- We set up under cover before service.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Tell us roughly how many children are coming
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Working with your venue
Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
How we price a catered barbecue
There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Numbers
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Distance from us
The menu makes a big difference to the price: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

- Allergies we should know about
