A barbecue near Salford
What comes off the grill
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Coleslaw is the natural partner for pulled pork, while salads keep it light.
Beef burgers
Burgers cook quickly on the grill, so they keep the queue moving.
BBQ catering in Salford, served hot
We cook outdoors, under cover, on a spot we agree with you, well clear of walls, marquee sides and trees. Tell us about the space in Salford and we will check it works. On the menu are halloumi skewers, coleslaw and sausages, and we’re often booked for family celebrations and 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays.
Country barbecues near Salford are hard to beat on a summer evening. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather, and think about lighting if it runs late. All the barbecue, none of the effort: we shop, cook, serve and clear.

Why choose BBQ catering in Salford?
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so some events have both. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Why Salford hosts choose us
- Our chef at the grill, not you
- Timed around your day
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Add a hog roast alongside

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
All the cooking and serving equipment comes with us, so there’s no need to borrow a grill.
