Smokin’ Wheels – BBQ Catering That Gets People Talking

There’s something about the smell of a BBQ that pulls people in. It creates atmosphere, gets conversations going, and gives your event a warm, relaxed energy that a buffet table simply can’t match. That’s exactly what Smokin’ Wheels delivers — proper BBQ catering, brought to your venue, freshly cooked in front of your guests.

KK Catering has been running mobile food vans since 2005, and in that time we’ve served over a thousand events a year across the UK. Corporate clients like Amazon, IKEA, and Hilton Hotels have trusted us to feed their teams. So whether you’re planning a summer wedding in a field or a staff appreciation day on a car park, we know how to make it work.

Our BBQ van is fully self-contained and runs from a standard 13-amp mains supply. That means no complicated venue arrangements — we arrive, set up, and get cooking.

The Smokin’ Wheels BBQ Menu

Every item on the Smokin’ Wheels menu is made to order and cooked fresh on the day. There’s no pre-prepared trays or warmed-through food here — just honest, handcrafted BBQ that your guests can watch coming straight off the grill.

Jack ‘n’ Flame Burger

Piggin’ Out Pulled Pork

Sizzlin’ Smoky Swine-dog

The Crispy Clucker

Jack ‘n’ Flame Burger. Premium beef patty, cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and Jack Daniels BBQ sauce. It’s the classic BBQ burger done properly — and it never fails to impress.

Piggin’ Out Pulled Pork Sandwich. Slow-cooked pulled pork with our signature spice blend, topped with fresh slaw in a soft brioche roll. Serve it with steak-cut chips and your guests won’t stop talking about it.

Sizzlin’ Smoky Swine-dog. A juicy pork sausage in a hotdog roll, finished with grilled onions, peppers and your choice of condiments. Simple, satisfying, and always popular.

The Crispy Clucker. Deep-fried battered chicken breast with cheese, lettuce, tomato, mayo and slaw. Crispy on the outside, juicy all the way through — and one of our most-requested items on the day.

The Imposter Burger. Our plant-based option is a genuine crowd-pleaser, not an afterthought. A hearty meat-free burger with lettuce, tomato and mayo — so good that meat-eaters order it too.

Sizzlin’ Sides. Every main comes with a choice of two sides: Mac ‘n’ Cheese, steak-cut chips, mixed salad, or coleslaw. Furthermore, all sides are made fresh on-site and served alongside your main for a proper, satisfying plate.

BBQ Catering for Corporate Events

A BBQ is one of the most effective ways to bring people together at a work event. It’s informal enough to break down hierarchy, but impressive enough to feel like a proper treat. That’s why companies like DPD, Marriott, and IKEA have booked us to feed their teams.

Staff appreciation days. Nothing says “thank you” quite like a proper BBQ. We turn up, take care of everything, and leave your team feeling genuinely looked after.

Corporate summer events. Whether it’s a rooftop party, a car park social, or an outdoor team day, Smokin’ Wheels works equally well in any setting. Our van is self-contained, so we don’t rely on your venue’s kitchen facilities.

Product launches and client hospitality. In addition to feeding your team, we can also cater for external guests and clients — giving your event a relaxed, premium feel without the fuss of a sit-down dinner.

Warehouse and site days. For large workforces in distribution or logistics environments, our high-throughput service means everyone gets fed efficiently during the service window, with no long queues or delays.

BBQ Catering for Weddings and Private Parties

Informal doesn’t mean unimpressive. In fact, some of the most memorable wedding receptions we’ve catered have swapped the plated dinner for a Smokin’ Wheels BBQ — and the feedback from guests is always outstanding.

Weddings. We work equally well in marquees, barns, outdoor fields, and hotel grounds. Our approach is relaxed and flexible — so if your venue isn’t conventional, that’s absolutely fine.

Birthday parties. Whether it’s a 30th in the back garden or a 50th in a function room, a BBQ is an instant crowd-pleaser. Moreover, there’s no faff with plated courses — guests eat when they’re ready, and the atmosphere stays casual and fun.

Garden parties and summer events. For garden parties, charity events, and school fairs, Smokin’ Wheels is a natural fit. We’re used to working outdoors and our van is set up for exactly these kinds of settings.

Charity events and community days. We’ve supported everything from local fundraisers to large community festivals. As a result, we understand how to manage volume, keep queues short, and make sure no one goes hungry.

Frequently Asked Questions About BBQ Event Catering

How many guests can you cater for?

Smokin’ Wheels handles events from around 30 guests up to 500 or more. For very large events, we can discuss additional serving arrangements to keep the service running smoothly.

How long does the BBQ catering service run for?

Our standard service window is 2 hours. That’s long enough to serve your guests comfortably without the event feeling rushed. We discuss timing with you in advance to make sure it fits around your event schedule.

What power supply do you need?

Our van runs from a standard 13-amp mains electricity supply. If your venue doesn’t have mains power available — for example, an outdoor field or festival site — we can arrange a generator as an add-on. Just let us know when you enquire.

Do you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes — The Imposter Burger is our plant-based main option, and our sides include mixed salad and coleslaw. We’d recommend letting us know your estimated dietary split when you book so we can prepare the right quantities on the day.

Where do you cover?

We cover the whole of mainland UK. From Scotland to the South Coast, our vans travel nationwide. Wherever your event is, we can get there.

How far in advance do I need to book?

As early as possible, particularly for summer weekends — those dates fill up fast. However, we do accommodate short-notice bookings where availability allows, so it’s always worth getting in touch even if your event is coming up soon.

Can the BBQ van work at outdoor venues without a kitchen?

Absolutely. That’s one of the biggest advantages of a self-contained mobile BBQ unit. We bring everything we need — the van, the equipment, the food, and the staff. There’s no reliance on your venue’s kitchen facilities whatsoever.

Is the food freshly cooked on the day?

Yes, always. Everything on the Smokin’ Wheels menu is cooked fresh at your venue during the service. Your guests see it being prepared in front of them — which adds to the experience as much as the taste does.
