Our BBQ catering in Kent

There’s something about a barbecue that gets people talking: the smell, the queue and the plates piled high. We’ll find the right spot at your venue in Kent. On the menu are chicken skewers, beef burgers and BBQ ribs, and we’re often booked for street parties and charity fundraisers.

One of us cooks, the others serve, so service stays steady. When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area.

  1. Tell us what kind of event it is.
  2. You get a suggested menu and a price.
  3. We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
  4. Hot food is served through the agreed time.
  5. The serving area is cleared before we leave.

Cost

What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

What you get with us

  • Serving and clearing done for you

Near you in Maidstone

Bookings here are often close to Paper Makers Arms, Maidstone Grammar School and St Philip's Church and the streets around them. You’ll also find River Len LNR (under half a mile north-east), South Borough Primary School (within half a mile south) and St Augustine Academy (1.2 miles west). The nearest railway station is Maidstone West station, about 0.6 miles north-west of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Maidstone Carriage Museum (within half a mile north-west) and Oakwood Hospital (1.8 miles west). Open spaces near Maidstone include Burham Down and Boxley Hills.

Planning a barbecue in Kent

From Maidstone, Ashford and Canterbury to 767 villages and hamlets, barbecues across Kent range from town gardens to club fields, and a catered barbecue works in all of them. All we need is a level spot outside for the grill. Parts of Kent are within a few miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape and the High Weald National Landscape, so check venue rules on outside caterers for countryside events. Around 219 places in Kent are close to the coast, where we always think about wind when choosing a cooking spot.

Maidstone: For a fundraiser at a school like South Borough Primary School, the barbecue can cook on a spot agreed with the school. Historic houses near Maidstone include Stoneacre (2.4 miles south-east) and Leeds Castle (4.6 miles east). Estates like these tend to set strict rules for caterers, so check before booking. For an evening barbecue in Maidstone, think about light: it’s light until about 9:15pm in June but only about 7:00pm in late September. Plan lights for the serving area after that.

For event organisers in Kent

If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

Looking after everyone

Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:

  • Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
  • Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
  • Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
  • Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces

We cook as your guests come up, while our staff serve and keep things flowing.

Sides turn a barbecue into a proper meal.

What affects the price in Kent

The biggest factors are:

  • The number of people
  • Access to the cooking area
  • The date and time of year
  • Crockery choices

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

Questions from Kent

Do you cover Kent?

We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.

Will guests know what’s in each dish?

We can label dishes at the serving table. Let us know about allergies before the day.

When should we book BBQ catering?

Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Weekday and off-season dates are often easier. Use our quote form.

Do you bring plates?

We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.

What does the venue need to provide?

The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Tell us what’s available on site and we will confirm the rest when we quote.

How many meats should we choose?

Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. Fewer items keeps service quick.

What meats do you barbecue?

You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Most events pick three or four.
