Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
All the cooking and serving equipment comes with us, so you do not need to find grills or tongs.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. Check these:
- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

A catered BBQ in Risinghurst: what to know
Risinghurst is about 2 miles east of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. Events in Risinghurst are part of our patch, along with the towns and villages around it. Risinghurst is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire where we cater.
If the day starts at a church like Parish Church of St Mary, the barbecue can be ready at a hall or garden close by. If you had Stansfeld Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: barbecues are often restricted in parks.
We cater events across the OX3 postcode area and the streets around it. That could mean an event in a garden on Mark Road, Kiln Lane and Pitts Road or the roads around them, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the barbecue. We also bring barbecues to events in Shotover Hill (1 mile south), Barton (1 mile north-west), Forest Hill (2 miles east), Horspath (2 miles south-east) and Stanton St John (2 miles north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Didcot (11 miles south), Bicester (10 miles north), Abingdon-on-Thames (7 miles south-west), Witney (13 miles west), Thame (9 miles east) and Wantage (15 miles south-west).
Other landmarks nearby include Templars Square (2.2 miles south-west) and Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre (0.9 miles south-west). The countryside around Risinghurst includes Shotover and CS Lewis Nature Reserve.
- Nearby schools include Headington Quarry Foundation Stage School (within half a mile west) and Cheney School (1.5 miles west)
- Pubs nearby include The Six Bells pub (within half a mile west)
For event organisers in Risinghurst
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Why choose BBQ catering in Risinghurst?
Compared with a sit-down meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and needs no kitchen at the venue. The menu makes a big difference to the price: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
Why book with us

- Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more

Questions from Risinghurst
Could you cook in Stansfeld Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Is Risinghurst close to London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is there anything for vegans?
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V) and a vegan burger or sausage (Ve). Tell us numbers so there is enough.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Burgers and sausages are generally the children’s favourites, and a vegan sausage covers anyone who doesn’t eat meat. Tell us roughly how many are coming.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Yes. With salads and potatoes, it’s a proper meal on a plate.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
Yes, and it is a popular combination. Ask and we’ll quote for the mix.
Is the barbecue cooked on site?
Yes, on site at your venue in Risinghurst. We need a level, open area outdoors with room for the grill and a serving table.
The process
We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then it’s a case of cooking and serving for as long as we have agreed. A summer barbecue in Risinghurst stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. In late September, it is dark by about 7:10pm.
- First, you send us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and get the grill hot.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Plan lighting if the barbecue runs into the evening
- Give us a contact number for the day
