A barbecue near Upper Eddington

BBQ catering in Upper Eddington, cooked on site

Some of the best barbecues are the ones where the host gets to sit down. Our chef cooks, our staff serve and we tidy up afterwards, while you look after your guests. On the menu are beef burgers, sausages and coleslaw, and we are regularly asked to cater summer parties in the garden and Fêtes, fairs and sports days.

Country barbecues near Upper Eddington are hard to beat on a summer evening. Plan shelter in case it rains, and think about lighting if it runs late. Everything is cooked through properly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.

Upper Eddington questions

Which station is closest to Upper Eddington?

The closest is Hungerford station, roughly 0.6 miles away.

Do you cater at venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

What can we have at a catered barbecue?

Beef burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

Will you clear up afterwards?

We tidy the serving area, so there is very little washing up. Ask if you’d like china.

Can we have a barbecue in winter?

Most barbecues are in summer, but we can cook in any season. Plan shelter for your guests.

Do you need anything from us?

A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Let us know about the site and we will confirm what we need.

Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?

Yes. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.

Do you cover Upper Eddington?

Yes, Upper Eddington is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll confirm availability.

Allergies and dietary needs

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

  • Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
  • Tell us about children’s numbers

When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot tidy.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

What comes off the grill

Beef burgers

Burgers cook quickly on the grill, which helps at busy times.

Sausages

Barbecued sausages are always popular, served in a roll or with sides.

For planners, venues and organisers

If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what affects the price:

  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Crockery choices
  • The journey to the venue
  • Season and day of the week

Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

What to tell us

To check the date and the space, we will need:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Rough numbers
  • Dietary requirements

Not sure how many to cater for? Give us your best estimate and we will quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.

What the cooking area needs

The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what we look for:

  • Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
  • A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
  • A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Popular choices

  • Coleslaw
  • Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
  • New potatoes
  • Beef brisket
  • Pulled pork
  • Jacket potatoes
  • Beef burgers
  • BBQ ribs
  • Sausages
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
  • Salads
