Your questions about a catered barbecue in Rotherfield Peppard
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Rotherfield Peppard?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How many meats should we choose?
Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. A shorter menu also speeds up service.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tell us your numbers and we will suggest a split.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
We cook under cover, so the season doesn’t stop us. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.
Do you cover Rotherfield Peppard?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
How soon do barbecue dates go?
The earlier the better for summer weekends. Weekday and off-season dates are frequently easier. Send us your details through our quote form.
Is the barbecue cooked on site?
Yes, on site, outdoors and under cover, with our staff serving and clearing.

- Choose your meats and sides.
- We confirm the cooking spot and send a quote.
- We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
