BBQ catering in Wye, cooked on site
The barbecue goes on a level, open spot outdoors with cover over it, away from buildings, fences and overhanging branches. Send us a picture of the space and we will confirm it. Whether it’s charity fundraisers and neighbourhood parties, we can cook BBQ ribs, coleslaw and pulled pork and more.
In a small place like Wye, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Why choose BBQ catering in Wye?
Instead of asking a friend to man the grill, nobody is left cooking while the party happens, and food safety is in professional hands. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why us?
- Hot food straight off the grill
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option
- Planned to your running order

What the cooking area needs
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- Somewhere for us to park close to the cooking spot
- A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
- A clear way in from where we park
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

What affects the price in Wye
The price comes down to:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of people
- The journey to the venue
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What to tell us
To get the best quote, tell us:
- Allergies we should know about
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We will confirm availability and send a price. Use our quote form.
Working with your venue
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Wye questions
How far is Wye from London?
About 50 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Do you label the food for allergies?
We give you allergen information for every dish, and we’ll label the meat-free choices clearly.
How much choice do we need?
Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. A shorter menu also speeds up service.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
We cook under cover, so the season does not stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
When should we book BBQ catering?
As soon as you know the date, especially for June to September. Short notice is still worth a try: send us your details through our quote form.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Let us know numbers for children.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
We get there well before service, so the grill is up to heat when you are ready to eat.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

Other occasions in Wye
How the day works
Grilled food is at its best when it is hot, so we cook and serve through the agreed time. Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the start, so nobody waits for the first round. Autumn and winter barbecues in Wye get dark early: about 7:00pm by late September and 3:50pm by December. For a late-season barbecue, lunchtime is easiest.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
- We set up under cover before service.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Before we arrive
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Send final numbers in good time
