About our BBQ catering in Quainton
Barbecues are good at pleasing everyone, because there’s beef, chicken and pork to choose from, and proper vegetarian and vegan options too. For fundraising barbecues and family celebrations, we can cook beef burgers, chicken skewers and pulled pork for your guests.
In a small place like Quainton, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will plan the route. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

The process
Before service, we set up the grill and the serving table on the agreed spot. Then our chef cooks and the team serves for as long as we’ve agreed. In Quainton, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Before we arrive
- Think about where the smoke will drift
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Send final numbers in good time
How to get a price

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Quainton
Which station is closest to Quainton?
Aylesbury Vale Parkway station, about 4 miles south-east of the centre.
Is Quainton close to London?
Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Yes. With salads and potatoes, it is a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
Should we have every meat?
Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. A shorter menu also speeds up service.
What do children normally eat?
Usually, yes: simple food in a roll suits most children. Tell us how many children to expect.
Is the barbecue cooked 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.
Can you do halal?
No. Please arrange halal food separately if anyone needs it.
Do you need anything from us?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Let us know about the site and we will confirm what we need.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Planning the cooking spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
- Parking near the grill
- A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
From the grill
- BBQ ribs
- Salads

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so some events have both. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book our barbecue in Quainton
- Add a hog roast alongside
- Our staff serve and clear
- Planned to your running order
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option

Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
- Tell us about children’s numbers

Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the moment service begins, so nobody waits for the first burgers.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
