About our BBQ catering in Wickham Heath
A good barbecue is about more than burgers: pulled pork, brisket and ribs turn it into a proper meal, with salads, coleslaw and potatoes on the side. We’re often asked to cater garden parties and evening wedding food, serving beef brisket, pulled pork and coleslaw.
In a small place like Wickham Heath, 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 plan the route. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

What the cooking area needs
The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what helps:
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
