Questions from North Gorley
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Is North Gorley too small for a barbecue?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Yes. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides; ask about china if you’d like it.
What meats do you barbecue?
You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.
What does the venue need to provide?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Tell us what’s available on site and we’ll confirm the rest when we quote.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
We tidy the serving area. China is available on request.
Do you come to North Gorley?
Yes, North Gorley is in our area. Send us the address and we will check the date.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
Slow-cooked meats such as pulled pork and brisket are ready to serve from the start, so nobody waits for the first burgers.
Pulled pork and brisket make the menu feel more substantial.
Why choose BBQ catering in North Gorley?
Compared with a barbecue cooked by friends, nobody is left cooking while the party happens, and the food is cooked by people who do it every week. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

- Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and get the grill hot.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve at the agreed time.
