How our BBQ catering works in Riseley

There is something about a barbecue that gets people talking: people gather round the grill and come back for seconds. In Riseley, we will set up where it suits your event. For 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays and engagement and anniversary parties, we can cook coleslaw, halloumi skewers and pulled pork.

A barbecue in the countryside near Riseley makes a lovely summer party. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. You will know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

What happens on the day

The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower will not stop it, but plan somewhere dry for people to eat. By late September, sunset in Riseley is about 7:05pm; in December it is about 3:55pm. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.

  1. Tell us what kind of event it is.
  2. You get a suggested menu and a price.
  3. We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
  4. Hot food is served through the agreed time.
  5. We tidy up before we go.

Preparing for the day

  • Let us know about children’s numbers
  • Tell us which meats you’d like in advance
  • Think about lights for the serving area after dark

Getting a price

Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we will check it: fill in our quote form.

Common questions in Riseley

Which station is closest to Riseley?

The closest is Mortimer station, roughly 3.2 miles away.

Do you come out to small places like Riseley?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Is there anything for vegans?

Yes: halloumi and vegetable skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage for vegans. Let us know how many to expect.

Can we have a barbecue in winter?

The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.

Is clearing up included?

Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.

Can you do a hog roast as well?

Yes. A hog roast gives you a centrepiece and the barbecue adds variety.

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.

How soon do you get booked up?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.

About the food

Salads, coleslaw and potatoes

Coleslaw is the natural partner for pulled pork, while salads keep it light.

Sausages

Grilled until golden and cooked right through, they’re the easy crowd-pleaser.

A barbecue or other catering?

Compared with a cold buffet, everything is hot and freshly cooked. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten

We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, so the event carries on around us.

How we price a catered barbecue

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Season and day of the week
  • Travel to Riseley
  • The number of people
  • How easy it is to reach the spot

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 to tell us

These are the details we need:

  • Any venue rules
  • An estimate of numbers
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Where the event is
