About our BBQ catering in Warnford
Barbecues are good at pleasing everyone, with beef, chicken and pork on the menu, and proper vegetarian and vegan options too. Typical bookings include fundraising days and garden parties, serving halloumi skewers, BBQ ribs and pulled pork.
In a small place like Warnford, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will handle the rest. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.
The menu, dish by dish
Chicken skewers
Our chef grills chicken on skewers, a lighter choice than burgers.
Pulled pork
Pulled pork in a roll with coleslaw is hard to beat, filling and easy to eat.
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
The serving table is kept tidy and stocked, so the barbecue looks as good at the end as at the start.
Sides turn a barbecue into a proper meal.
The process
One of us cooks, the others serve, so the queue keeps moving. When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area. Autumn and winter barbecues in Warnford get dark early: about 7:10pm by late September and 4:00pm by December. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
- Tell us what kind of event it is.
- You get a suggested menu and a price.
- We set up the grill before food time.
- Hot food is served through the agreed time.
- We tidy up before we go.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know about children’s numbers
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
