How our BBQ catering works in Woolmer Hill
Barbecue food is sociable food: people gather round the grill and come back for seconds. We will find the right spot at your venue in Woolmer Hill. We’re often asked to cater street parties and retirement do’s, with BBQ ribs, sausages and chicken skewers.
Country barbecues near Woolmer Hill are hard to beat on a summer evening. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather, and think about lighting if it runs late. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Step by step
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we time our arrival around your serving time. It means food comes off the grill hot. Autumn and winter barbecues in Woolmer Hill get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 4:00pm by December. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
