BBQ catering for your event in Rotherwick
In Rotherwick, a barbecue is a favourite for relaxed events: plenty of choice, nothing fussy and everyone happy. The difference with a catered barbecue is that nobody from your party is stuck at the grill. Typical bookings include informal weddings and sports clubs and team events, with chicken skewers, BBQ ribs and sausages.
A barbecue in the countryside near Rotherwick makes a lovely summer party. Plan shelter in case it rains. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

How it works
One of us cooks, the others serve, so the queue keeps moving. After service, we clear up and pack away. In Rotherwick, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so an early-evening barbecue is normally in daylight.
- Start with the occasion, the date and the venue.
- We suggest a menu and send a quote.
- We set up the grill before food time.
- We serve as people come up.
- The serving area is cleared before we leave.
How to prepare
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
