How our BBQ catering works in Over Norton
Barbecues are good at pleasing everyone, because there is beef, chicken and pork to choose from, and proper vegetarian and vegan options too. Typical bookings include charity fundraisers and 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays, with BBQ ribs, coleslaw and beef brisket.

A catered barbecue compared with other options
Next to a fixed venue menu, a catered barbecue lets you choose exactly what’s served. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
What you get with us
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Hot food straight off the grill
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Meat-free choices on every menu
Read our prices page and our barbecue menu ideas.
What comes off the grill
Chicken skewers
Chicken skewers are grilled on site, for guests who prefer chicken.
Sausages
Children generally head straight for the sausages, and they’re easy to eat standing up.
Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef when choosing the meats
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
Our staff keep the serving table tidy and topped up, right through the service.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
Working with your venue
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
