BBQ catering for your event in Wick
There’s something about a barbecue that gets people talking: the smell, the queue and the plates piled high. In Wick, we’ll set up where it suits your event. We are frequently asked to cater retirement do’s and garden parties, serving beef burgers, coleslaw and chicken skewers.
For a barbecue in Wick, the garden is frequently the best venue. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we will bring everything else. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:
- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
- A wet-weather plan for your guests
- Room for a serving table next to the grill
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Tell us if anyone doesn’t eat beef
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
Slow-cooked meats such as pulled pork and brisket are ready to serve from the start, so nobody waits for the first burgers.
For a more filling menu, add pulled pork or brisket.

How the day works
A barbecue is cooked as people eat, so we time our arrival around your serving time. It means food comes off the grill hot. By late September, sunset in Wick is about 7:05pm; in December it’s about 4:00pm. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
- Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
- We check the cooking spot and quote.
- We set up under cover before service.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Include children in your numbers

- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Questions from Wick
What’s the nearest station to Wick?
Littlehampton station, about 0.8 miles south of the centre.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. We cook under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do you cater for vegetarians?
Yes. Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, and vegans get a vegan burger or sausage, cooked separately from the meat.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes. A hog roast gives you a centrepiece and the barbecue adds variety.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Can you do halal?
We don’t. If guests need halal, arrange that separately.
Do you clear up?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Next to doing the barbecue yourself, nobody you know spends the event at the grill, and the cooking is in experienced hands. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
