BBQ catering in Telham, served hot
Barbecue food is at its best straight from the grill, which is why we cook and serve as your guests come up. Tell us when you’d like to eat and we will work to it. On the menu are beef burgers, BBQ ribs and pulled pork, and we are frequently booked for reunions and family get-togethers and 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays.
Country barbecues near Telham 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. You get a barbecue without the work: we shop, cook, serve and clear.

Planners, venues and businesses
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
If you are a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
The process
Before service, we set up the grill and the serving table on the agreed spot. Then it’s a case of cooking and serving for as long as we have agreed. Autumn and winter barbecues in Telham get dark early: about 7:00pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
- First, you send us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Before we arrive
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Choose the menu a week or so before
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
Getting a price
Send us the date, the address or TN33 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will check the date and send a quote. Fill in our quote form.
