While the nights are still light and the sun is (occasionally) making an appearance, we’re making the most of summer gatherings in the garden! Here at Becketts Farm we are here to help you feed a crowd this summer.

Maybe you’re having the family round for an afternoon BBQ, just because! There might be an occasion to celebrate with a big invite list, or maybe you love hosting dinner parties with friends on warm summer evenings. We’ve rounded up all the incredible catering options we have to help you host the perfect garden party this summer.

Spontaneous BBQ!

With the changeable weather we’re having this summer, we must be prepared for every eventuality! When the sun shines, it’s time to quickly rally the troupes to assemble for a spontaneous BBQ party.

Often, it seems that everyone has had the same idea! And the shelves of the supermarkets swiftly become bare. Frustrating!

Here at Becketts Farm Shop, our team of expert butchers hand-prepare BBQ meats and are quick to respond to the changing weather. They’ll have trays of marinated chicken kebab skewers and beef, lamb and pork burgers handmade and stocked on our counter, guaranteed! With a range of traditional and flavoured pork sausages, steaks, marinated ribs and more, a showstopping BBQ is on the cards.

Tick off the rest of the shopping list in our Farm Shop too. From freshly baked bread rolls to local beers, colourful salads and quirky accompaniments lining the shelves.

Pick up some of the limited-edition Zingy Burger Sauce by Tracklements. Bursting with sweet and sour flavour it is perfect for topping burgers. Why not try our recipe for these tasty Halloumi burgers? They pair wonderfully with this sweet and tangy sauce.

How about making a batch of Buttery Cider Onions for topping hot dogs and burgers?

Or, for another BBQ match made in heaven, pick up a block of feta cheese from our Deli counter to crumble over our lamb and mint burgers.

Party Platters

If you’re looking for a cold buffet option for a party, why not consider our party platters? Cater for a crowd with a selection of the finest cold meats, cheeses, pastries, savoury snacks, salads, fruits and freshly made sandwiches from Becketts Farm Shop. Let us do the hard work!

Our freshly prepared party platters are perfect for any occasion. They mean that the party host can focus on the guests rather than the food! There are 18 different platters to choose from and our team will lovingly prepare and assemble your platters on the morning of your event, meaning that they’re totally fresh to be enjoyed by all!

Party platters can be ordered for collection 7 days a week, or delivery can be arranged Monday to Saturday.

Summer Dinner Parties

If you’re hosting friends for an alfresco dinner party and you’re looking for recipe inspiration, head over to our blog pages, where you’ll find plenty of seasonal recipes.

For starters, why not try your hand at our recipe for runny-yolk Pork and Mustard Scotch Eggs. With oozing, golden centres they tricky to master, but worth the result!

For a seasonal main course, try this Chicken and Tomato Orzo Salad, which puts the beautiful Evesham tomatoes which we stock at centre-stage!

And for pudding, you’ll be spoilt for choice by the selection of local and British berries currently available in store. Why not try our recipe for Lemon and Blueberry Eton Mess, which is a breeze to prepare and has summer written all over it!

You’ll find our drinks shelves in the Farm Shop topped to the brim with local English wines, including sparkling varieties. Get a bottle or two chilled and ready to impress your guests with a locally sourced tipple!
