BBQ catering in Stuckton
BBQ catering for your event in Stuckton
Whether it’s twenty friends in a garden or a whole workforce in a car park, a catered barbecue scales to the occasion. Give us an idea of numbers and we will suggest a menu. For street parties and relaxed weddings and evening receptions, we can cook BBQ ribs, halloumi skewers and pulled pork for your guests.
In a small place like Stuckton, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
Common questions in Stuckton
Do you cater at venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come out to small places like Stuckton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can we have a barbecue in winter?
Summer is the busiest time, but we cook all year. Plan shelter for your guests.
Will you clear up afterwards?
We tidy the serving area. China is available on request.
Will guests know what’s in each dish?
We give you allergen information for every dish, and we’ll label the meat-free choices clearly.
Can you barbecue in bad weather?
We cook under cover, so rain isn’t a problem for the food. Have a gazebo, marquee or room indoors for eating.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Is the barbecue cooked on site?
Yes, on site, outdoors and under cover, with our staff serving and clearing.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
We get there well before service, so the grill is up to heat when you’re ready to eat.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.

- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Cooked on site by our chef

How we price a catered barbecue
Your quote depends on:
- Numbers
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Crockery choices
- The date and time of year
Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The venue or postcode
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We will check the date and send a quote. Send us your details through our quote form.
The process
With cover over the grill, the weather rarely holds us up, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. At midsummer, it is light in Stuckton until about 9:25pm, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. In late September, it is dark by about 7:10pm.
- Start with the occasion, the date and the venue.
- We suggest a menu and send a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- Hot food is served through the agreed time.
- The serving area is cleared before we leave.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the grill downwind of the seating
- Think about lights for the serving area after dark
- Tell us which meats you’d like in advance
