How the day works
Running late? Tell us as early as you can, and we’ll work around it. Barbecue food is cooked through service, so it is flexible. For an evening barbecue in Penton Hook, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:05pm. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.

- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and get the grill hot.
- We cook and serve when you are ready to eat.

Planning help
BBQ catering in Penton Hook, cooked on site
The barbecue goes on a level, open spot outdoors with cover over it, well clear of walls, marquee sides and trees. Send us a picture of the space and we’ll confirm it. For Fêtes, fairs and sports days and fundraising barbecues, we’ll put together a menu of beef burgers, coleslaw and pulled pork.
In a small place like Penton Hook, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. Everything is cooked through properly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
We get there well before service, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.
Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. Check these:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A wet-weather plan for your guests
- A level lawn, patio or hard standing
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Sausages
Barbecued sausages are always popular, served in a roll or with sides.
Why choose BBQ catering in Penton Hook?
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so some events have both. What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
Why Penton Hook hosts choose us
- Pair it with a hog roast if you like
- Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
- Our chef at the grill, not you
- Sides to make it a full meal
