How our BBQ catering works in Rudmore
Barbecues are good at pleasing everyone, because there’s beef, chicken and pork to choose from, plus halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. We serve beef brisket, BBQ ribs and chicken skewers, and we’re frequently booked for summer parties in the garden and reunions and family get-togethers.
Barbecues around Rudmore are frequently relaxed garden affairs. A catered barbecue fits right in, and you won’t spend it cooking. Our staff serve and clear, so you are not left handing out rolls.

Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Next to a row of street-food vans, one catered barbecue keeps everyone eating together, on a menu you’ve agreed in advance. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

A catered BBQ in Rudmore: what to know

Step by step
Grilled food is at its best when it is hot, so we cook to order through service. Slow-cooked meats are ready as soon as service begins, so nobody waits for the first round. A summer barbecue in Rudmore stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. In late September, it’s dark by about 7:10pm.
