A closer look at the menu
Beef burgers
No barbecue is complete without burgers, loved by most ages.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and jacket potatoes turn a barbecue into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Crockery choices
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Numbers
- Access to the cooking area
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

What the cooking area needs

How it works

Orchard Leigh questions
Do you come out to small places like Orchard Leigh?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to Orchard Leigh?
The closest is Berkhamsted station, roughly 3 miles away.
What do you need from the venue?
The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Tell us what’s available on site and we’ll confirm the rest when we quote.

You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Most events pick three or four.
Does rain stop the barbecue?

Burgers and sausages are usually the children’s favourites, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Tell us roughly how many are coming.
Do you cook the barbecue on site?
Yes, at your event, on a spot we agree with you. The barbecue needs a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings and trees.
Why choose BBQ catering in Orchard Leigh?
