About our BBQ catering in Netley
A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. With BBQ catering, all of that is done for you, so you can enjoy your own event. On the menu are BBQ ribs, coleslaw and sausages, and typical bookings are for back-garden get-togethers and engagement and anniversary parties.
In a place like Netley, a barbecue at home is usually the easiest option. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
Our staff keep the serving table tidy and topped up, so the barbecue looks as good at the end as at the start.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
Before you choose a spot
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
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

A catered BBQ in Netley: what to know
Netley is about 3 miles north-east of Hythe, in Hampshire. Events in Netley are part of our patch, as well as the surrounding area. We cover 683 places in Hampshire, from the larger towns to small villages.
Thinking of a barbecue in Westwood Woodland Park? Many parks ban barbecues, and catering needs the landowner’s permission, generally the council’s. PTAs at schools such as Netley Abbey Infant School frequently look for a barbecue for fairs and sports days. The New Forest National Park is within about 7 miles of Netley. Venues there may restrict open cooking, so ask about their rules first. The sea is within about 2 miles of Netley, so breezy days are common: we choose a sheltered spot for the grill and keep smoke away from guests.
Events anywhere in SO31 start with an outdoor spot for the barbecue and a serving time. Local streets include Station Road, The Crescent and Hunt Avenue; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Close by, we cover events in Butlocks Heath (1 mile north-east), Hound (1 mile south-east), Weston (1 mile north-west), Old Netley (1 mile north-east) and Lowford (1 mile north-east). We also serve nearby towns such as Winchester (13 miles north), Gosport (10 miles south-east), Eastleigh (6 miles north), Fareham (7 miles east), Horndean (15 miles east) and Totton (8 miles west).

The process
Running late? Tell us as early as you can, and we’ll adjust where we can. Barbecue food is cooked through service, so it’s flexible. At midsummer, it is light in Netley until about 9:25pm, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. In late September, it’s dark by about 7:10pm.
- Send us the date, the place and roughly how many.
- Pick the menu with us.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We clear up and go.
Getting ready for the day
