We’re frequently asked to cater reunions and family get-togethers and 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays, serving pulled pork, sausages and BBQ ribs.
For a barbecue in Nursling, the garden is often the best venue. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls.

What else we do in Nursling
How it works
We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then our chef cooks and the team serves for as long as we’ve agreed. A summer barbecue in Nursling stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. In late September, it is dark by about 7:10pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- We cook and serve when you’re ready to eat.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Preparing for the day

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Nursling
Can you barbecue near the sea around Nursling?
Yes, of course. We cook under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do you cater at venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Do you need anything from us?
Mostly space and access: a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings, with cover over the grill. We will confirm details when we quote.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Ask and we will quote for the mix.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Burgers and sausages are normally the children’s favourites, and a vegan sausage covers anyone who doesn’t eat meat. Let us know numbers for children.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
Summer is the busiest time, but we cook all year. Plan shelter for your guests.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
We bring plates and clear up after service.

Is a barbecue right for your event?
Compared with a sit-down meal, a barbecue keeps things informal, and it doesn’t need a kitchen. What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Beef burgers
Beef burgers are grilled on site and served in a bun, hot off the barbecue.
Planning the cooking spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Room for a serving table next to the grill
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
