Melbourne BBQ catering pricing guide

What does BBQ catering cost?

A practical guide to the starting price, additions and delivery costs behind YDU Classic Drop & Go catering.

The short answer

YDU Classic starts from $420 for Wagyu brisket and pulled pork, serving approximately 15 to 23 guests. Homemade sides, premium additions and delivery are quoted separately. Your final price depends mainly on guest numbers, the spread you choose and your location.

01

Start with the smoked meats

Every YDU Classic begins with Wagyu brisket and pulled pork. The base $420 spread is designed for approximately 15 to 23 guests, depending on appetites and what else is being served.

For larger parties, the meat quantity scales with your confirmed guest count.

  • Wagyu brisket
  • Slow-smoked pulled pork
  • Prepared ready to serve
  • Scaled to guest numbers

02

Build out the table

Sides and premium additions are optional, so you are not paying for a package filled with things your guests do not want.

Franklin potato salad, creamy coleslaw and wicked baked beans turn the meats into a complete spread. Giant beef ribs, smoked chicken and Memphis dry rub ribs can make the BBQ the centrepiece.

  • Homemade sides
  • Premium meats subject to availability
  • Extra meat for larger appetites
  • No compulsory staffed service

03

Allow for delivery

Delivery is additional and based on your event location. YDU caters private parties within 90 km of Endeavour Hills.

Share the exact suburb or venue when you enquire so the quote includes the real delivery cost rather than a vague estimate.

04

Compare the whole event cost

Drop & Go catering avoids the staffing, equipment and service charges involved in a full-service event. You provide the table, serving utensils and people. We provide the BBQ ready for the party.

The useful comparison is not only cost per person. It is the total cost of putting generous food on the table in the format you actually want.
