About our BBQ catering in Three Mile Cross

In Three Mile Cross, a barbecue is a favourite for relaxed events: plenty of choice, nothing fussy and everyone happy. The difference with a catered barbecue is that nobody from your party is stuck at the grill. Popular choices include halloumi skewers, beef burgers and pulled pork, and we’re often booked for cricket, football and rugby club days and leaving parties.

Country barbecues near Three Mile Cross are hard to beat on a summer evening. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

A barbecue or other catering?

Next to a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, which helps when some guests don’t eat pork. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so some events have both. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

Why book with us

  • An itemised quote
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
  • Pair it with a hog roast if you like
  • Six meats to choose from

See our pricing or our barbecue menu ideas.

The process

With cover over the grill, the weather rarely holds us up, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. In Three Mile Cross, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.

  1. Send us the date, the place and roughly how many.
  2. Pick the menu with us.
  3. We check the space and quote.
  4. We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We pack away and leave the area tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Let us know about children’s numbers
  • Let us know about tight access

Ask for a quote

We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: use our quote form.

Questions from Three Mile Cross

How far is Three Mile Cross from London?

About 38 miles from central London.

Can you do a barbecue in Pearman's Copse?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?

Yes. Many bigger events have both. Ask and we’ll quote for the mix.

When should we book BBQ catering?

Once your date is fixed, particularly for a summer weekend. Short notice is still worth a try: send us your details through our quote form.

What can we have at a catered barbecue?

Burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?

Yes. Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, and vegans get a vegan burger or sausage.

Do you need anything from us?

Space and a way in, mainly: somewhere level outside for the barbecue and the serving table. We’ll check anything else with you.

Can it be a sit-down meal?

Yes. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides; ask about china if you’d like it.

Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:

  • Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
  • Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
  • Ask which items contain gluten
