BBQ catering in New Street, cooked on site
BBQ catering means we bring the barbecue and do the cooking. Our chef grills on site in New Street, under cover, while our staff serve your guests and tidy up. Whether it’s retirement do’s and family celebrations, we will put together a menu of pulled pork, chicken skewers and sausages.
A barbecue in the countryside near New Street makes a lovely summer party. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather, and think about lighting if it runs late. You get a barbecue without the work: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.
How it works
We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then it is a case of cooking and serving through the time you’ve chosen. At midsummer, it is light in New Street until about 9:20pm, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. In late September, it is dark by about 7:00pm.

Planning help
For event organisers in New Street
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the rest of the space to you.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.

Is a barbecue right for your event?
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so for bigger events, why not both?. 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.
Why us?
- Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Add a hog roast alongside
