How our BBQ catering works in Medmenham

We cook outdoors, under cover, on a spot we agree with you, away from buildings, fences and overhanging branches. Send us a picture of the space and we will confirm it. Typical bookings include birthdays and milestone parties and leaving and retirement parties, with pulled pork, beef brisket and sausages.

Country barbecues near Medmenham are hard to beat on a summer evening. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. You will know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

Medmenham barbecues: local tips

Medmenham is about 3 miles south-west of Marlow, in Buckinghamshire. We cater events of every size in Medmenham. Medmenham is one of 263 towns and villages in Buckinghamshire we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Medmenham to Reading (about 9 miles away).

Coming by train? Henley-On-Thames station is about 2.9 miles away. Churches such as Church of St Peter and St Paul rarely have room for a barbecue, but a hall or home nearby normally does. Medmenham is within about 8 miles of the Chilterns National Landscape. Some venues in protected landscapes have rules about open cooking and vehicles, so check with yours.

Wherever your event is in SL7, we can cook on site for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. From Bockmer Lane and Ferry Lane or a nearby road, we’ll bring the barbecue to you. Other places close to Medmenham we cover include Bockmer End (1 mile north-east), Frogmill (1 mile south-east), Danesfield (1 mile east), Mill End (1 mile west) and Aston (1 mile west). Further out, we also cater in High Wycombe (6 miles north-east), Chesham (15 miles north-east), Marlow (3 miles north-east), Amersham (13 miles north-east), Beaconsfield (9 miles north-east) and Chalfont St Peter (13 miles east).

Allergies and dietary needs

Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:

  • Ask which items contain gluten
  • Mention any guests who avoid beef
  • Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
  • Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect

After service, our staff clear up, so there is very little left for you to do.

A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.

How it works

Grilled food is at its best when it’s hot, so we cook and serve through the agreed time. Slow-cooked meats are ready as soon as service begins, which keeps the queue moving. For an evening barbecue in Medmenham, think about light: it is light until about 9:25pm 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. You get a suggested menu and a price.
  3. We set up the grill before food time.
  4. We serve as people come up.
  5. We tidy up before we go.

Preparing for the day

  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Keep the grill downwind of the seating

For planners, venues and organisers

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

How to plan a catered barbecue

Space, access and the venue

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:

  • Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
  • A spot where smoke will not blow into the house or marquee
  • A level lawn, patio or hard standing

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Is a barbecue right for your event?

Next to a formal plated meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and needs no kitchen at the venue. Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.

Why Medmenham hosts choose us

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

Prices and what affects them

There’s no fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:

  • The journey to the venue
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • The date and time of year
  • Plates or china

Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

Getting an accurate quote

For a quick, accurate price, tell us:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Where the event is
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • An estimate of numbers

It is easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.

Medmenham questions

Is Medmenham too small for a barbecue?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Is Medmenham close to London?

Roughly 32 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

What’s on your BBQ menu?

You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.

Do you offer halal meat?

No, we do not offer halal meat. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.

Can you do a hog roast as well?

Yes. Many bigger events have both. Ask and we will quote for the mix.

What if it rains?

We bring cover for the grill, but guests will want shelter too.
