BBQ catering for your event in Olney
The point of a catered barbecue is that you get to enjoy it. Our chef cooks, our staff serve and we tidy up afterwards, so your time goes on your guests, not the food. We are often asked to cater cricket, football and rugby club days and retirement do’s, with beef brisket, beef burgers and sausages.
For a barbecue in Olney, the garden is frequently the best venue. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

What else we do in Olney
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
We cook as your guests come up, and our staff serve and keep the queue moving.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
For event organisers in Olney
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
The process
If timings shift on the day, let your contact know, and we’ll work around it. Barbecue food is cooked through service, so it is flexible. Sunset in Olney is about 9:00pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the barbecue and send a clear quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Tell us which meats you’d like in advance
- Let us know about tight access
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
