BBQ catering for your event in Mottisfont
Hosting a barbecue typically means shopping, prepping, cooking and clearing. With BBQ catering, all of that is done for you, so you can enjoy your own event. Whether it is 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays and garden parties, we will put together a menu of coleslaw, chicken skewers and beef brisket.
In a small place like Mottisfont, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the route. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
Why choose BBQ catering in Mottisfont?
Compared with a sit-down meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and it doesn’t need a kitchen. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

For event organisers in Mottisfont
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.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
What happens on the day
