About our BBQ catering in New Hinksey
The point of a catered barbecue is that you get to enjoy it. Our chef cooks, our staff serve and we tidy up afterwards, while you look after your guests. On the menu are beef brisket, BBQ ribs and coleslaw, and we’re regularly asked to cater team days and staff summer parties and informal weddings.
For a barbecue in New Hinksey, the garden is often the best venue. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

About the food
BBQ ribs
Sticky, glazed ribs are the messy treat of the menu; have napkins ready.
Pulled pork
Slow-cooked pork, pulled apart, piled into rolls, frequently with coleslaw.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
After service, our staff clear up, so there’s very little left for you to do.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.

Planners, venues and businesses
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.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
New Hinksey: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to New Hinksey?
Oxford station, about 1.3 miles north-west of the centre.
Can you do a barbecue in South Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Will guests know what’s in each dish?
We can label dishes at the serving table. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Is there anything for vegans?
Yes. There’s a halloumi option and a vegan option, cooked separately from the meat.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Of course. With salads and potatoes, it’s a proper meal on a plate.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.
Is a barbecue right for your event?
Instead of asking a friend to man the grill, nobody is left cooking while the party happens, and the food is cooked by people who do it every week. 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.
