BBQ catering for Woodham
How our BBQ catering works in Woodham
Some hosts in Woodham pair a barbecue with a hog roast, so there is a centrepiece and plenty of choice. We can quote for either or both. We’re often asked to cater leaving and retirement parties and summer staff days, serving chicken skewers, coleslaw and halloumi skewers.
For a barbecue in Woodham, the garden is frequently the best venue. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Distance from us
- The date and time of year
- Whether you want china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Details that help
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Dietary requirements
- Any venue rules
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: fill in our quote form.
Space, access and the venue
A barbecue needs a level, open spot outdoors with cover. Here’s what we look for:
- A wet-weather plan for your guests
- Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
- Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
