How our BBQ catering works in Mickleham
There is more to a catered barbecue than burgers: pulled pork, brisket and ribs turn it into a proper meal, served with salads, coleslaw and potatoes. For team days and staff summer parties and retirement do’s, we will put together a menu of sausages, chicken skewers and coleslaw.
Near Mickleham, barbecues frequently happen in gardens and fields. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the route. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.
About the food
Beef burgers
A burger is the barbecue classic, and they’re a safe bet for children and adults alike.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Where the barbecue can go in Mickleham
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue if a few things are right. A quick checklist:
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Planning help
Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with hiring a venue’s in-house menu, you pick the meats, the sides and the meat-free options yourself. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Why book with us
- Hot food straight off the grill
- Six meats to choose from
- An itemised quote
- Served at the time you choose
Take a look at how we price and BBQ menu ideas.
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
Slow-cooked meats such as pulled pork and brisket are ready to serve from the start, so nobody waits for the first burgers.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
Mickleham questions
Do you cater at venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Could you cook in Norbury Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop it. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.
Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?
We can label dishes at the serving table. Let us know about allergies before the day.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Of course. With salads and potatoes, it is a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
Is clearing up included?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes, and it is a popular combination. Ask and we’ll quote for the mix.
How much choice do we need?
Not normally. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket and we’ll advise on the rest.
