A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with a cold buffet, barbecue food is hot and cooked to order, and nothing sits out all afternoon. What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Why Temple hosts choose us
- Our staff serve and clear
- Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
- Six meats to choose from
- Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
Read our prices page and menu ideas for your barbecue.
Step by step
With cover over the grill, the weather rarely holds us up, but plan somewhere dry for people to eat. In Temple, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so an early-evening barbecue is typically in daylight.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
- We arrive in good time and get the barbecue hot.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Before we arrive
- Confirm your menu choices in good time
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Think about where the smoke will drift

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
Slow-cooked meats such as pulled pork and brisket are ready to serve from the start, so nobody waits for the first burgers.
For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
If you are a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
Planning the cooking spot
The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what we look for:
- A clear way in from where we park
- Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
- Room for a serving table next to the grill
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
