A barbecue near Warborne
How our BBQ catering works in Warborne
Hosting a barbecue normally means shopping, prepping, cooking and clearing. A catered barbecue takes all of that off your hands, so you can spend the time with your guests. Typical bookings include reunions and family get-togethers and back-garden get-togethers, with BBQ ribs, beef brisket and beef burgers.
A barbecue in the countryside near Warborne makes a lovely summer party. Plan shelter in case it rains, and think about lighting if it runs late. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with raw and cooked food kept apart.
Questions from Warborne
Which station is closest to Warborne?
The closest is Lymington Town station, roughly 1 mile away.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. We cook under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do you come to Warborne?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll confirm availability.
How much choice do we need?
You do not need everything. Pick a mix of grilled and slow-cooked meats.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
We can. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Typically, yes: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Tell us how many children to expect.
Will you clear up afterwards?
Yes, we clear up after service. China is available on request.
Can you barbecue in bad weather?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.
Why choose BBQ catering in Warborne?
Compared with a cold buffet, barbecue food is hot and cooked to order. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Why book with us
- Pair it with a hog roast if you like
- Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
- Timed around your day
- A clear quote with everything listed
See our prices page or BBQ 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 Warborne, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so an early-evening barbecue is normally in daylight.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive in good time, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Before we arrive
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Let us know about tight access
- Let us know about children’s numbers

Planning for dietary needs
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, so the event carries on around us.
For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.
How we price a catered barbecue
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The journey to the venue
- Crockery choices
- Site access
Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Your date and serving time
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The address or postcode
Send us the date, the address or SO41 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.
About the food
Chicken skewers
For anyone avoiding pork or beef, chicken skewers are the answer, cooked until it’s hot all the way through.
Sausages
Barbecued sausages are always popular, served in a roll or with sides.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue if a few things are right. A quick checklist:
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
- Space for our vehicle nearby
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
