Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
BBQ catering in Warren Row, served hot
A barbecue suits mixed groups well, with beef, chicken and pork on the menu, and proper vegetarian and vegan options too. For summer staff days and school fairs and summer fêtes, we’ll put together a menu of BBQ ribs, beef burgers and sausages and more.
In a small place like Warren Row, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot tidy.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
