How our BBQ catering works in Milcombe
A good barbecue is about more than burgers: slow-cooked pulled pork, sliced beef brisket and glazed ribs make it feel like a meal, served with salads, coleslaw and potatoes. Whether it’s Fêtes, fairs and sports days and work barbecues, we can cook pulled pork, halloumi skewers and beef brisket and more.
A barbecue in the countryside near Milcombe makes a lovely summer party. Plan shelter in case it rains. All the barbecue, none of the effort: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.

Planners, venues and businesses
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
What we serve, dish by dish
Beef burgers
Beef burgers are grilled on site and served in a bun, hot off the barbecue.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and jacket potatoes, depending on the occasion.
A catered barbecue compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue cooked by friends, a catered barbecue means everyone gets to be a guest, and the food is cooked by people who do it every week. 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.

What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
