BBQ catering for your event in Whitchurch

In a place like Whitchurch, a barbecue at home is generally the easiest option. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we’ll do the rest. You will know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
A closer look at the menu
Sausages
Barbecued sausages are always popular, in a roll or on a plate.
BBQ ribs
Sticky, glazed ribs are the messy treat of the menu; have napkins ready.
How the day works
Barbecue food is best straight off the grill, so we cook to order through service. Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the start, so nobody waits for the first round. At midsummer, it’s light in Whitchurch until about 9:25pm, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:10pm.

- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
The serving table is kept tidy and stocked, so the barbecue looks as good at the end as at the start.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.

The menu makes a big difference to the price: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.
