BBQ catering in Becontree

BBQ catering in Becontree, cooked on site

We cook outdoors, under cover, on a spot we agree with you, well clear of walls, marquee sides and trees. Tell us about the space in Becontree and we’ll check it works. Whether it is back-garden get-togethers and 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays, we’ll put together a menu of halloumi skewers, pulled pork and beef burgers.

London gardens around Becontree are frequently small and close to neighbours, so placing the grill so smoke clears the houses matters. A word with the neighbours beforehand always helps. Everything is cooked through properly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.

Looking after everyone

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

  • Ask which items contain gluten
  • Think about who does not eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
  • Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
  • Request gluten-free rolls

Our chef cooks through the agreed service time, while our staff serve and keep things flowing.

Sides turn a barbecue into a proper meal.

A catered BBQ in Becontree: what to know

Becontree is about 2 miles north-east of Barking, in Greater London. We are happy to travel to Becontree for events and the places nearby. We cater 764 places in Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater events right across the region, from Becontree to London (11 miles away).

If you had Parsloes Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: barbecues are frequently restricted in parks. PTAs at schools such as St Joseph's Catholic Primary School often look for a barbecue for fairs and sports days.

Anywhere in RM9, RM10 and RM8, we can cook on site for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. That could mean an event in a garden on Wood Lane, Eliot Road and Maxey Road or the roads around them, as long as there’s somewhere outside to cook. Becontree is on the A1240, which makes the journey straightforward. For events just outside Becontree, we cover Dagenham (1 mile south-east), Becontree Heath (1 mile north), Castle Green (1 mile south-west), Dagenham Green (1 mile south) and Goodmayes (2 miles north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover London (11 miles west), City of Westminster (13 miles west), Marylebone (13 miles west), Kensington (15 miles west), St Pancras (11 miles west) and Shoreditch (10 miles west).

Other landmarks nearby include Rush Green Hospital (1.6 miles north-east) and Dagenham (1 mile north-east). Within reach you’ll find Dagenham Village Churchyard.

  • Nearby schools include Robert Clack School (0.9 miles north)
  • Local pubs include Eastbrook pub (0.9 miles east)

A catered barbecue compared with other options

Compared with ordering takeaway, a barbecue becomes part of the event, with the smell drawing people over. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.

Why us?

  • Six meats to choose from
  • Hot food straight off the grill
  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Our staff serve and clear

Take a look at our prices page and menu ideas for your barbecue.

What happens on the day

We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then it is a case of cooking and serving for as long as we’ve agreed. For an evening barbecue in Becontree, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the serving area after that.

  1. Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
  2. We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
  3. We set up under cover before service.
  4. At food time, we cook and serve.
  5. We tidy up and pack away.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us roughly how many children are coming
  • Choose the menu a week or so before
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before

Becontree: your questions answered

What if our house in Becontree has no side access?

Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Could you cook in Parsloes Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.

Is the food cooked safely?

Cooking properly is our job: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.

How far ahead should we book?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we’ll check.

Do you cover Becontree?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Becontree and Greater London. Tell us the venue and we will quote.

Is the barbecue cooked on site?

Yes, on site, outdoors and under cover, and our staff serve and clear.

Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?

Yes, and it is a popular combination. Ask and we’ll quote for the mix.

How soon do barbecue dates go?

The earlier the better for summer weekends. Weekday and off-season dates are often easier. Use our quote form.

Space, access and the venue

Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:

  • Room for a serving table next to the grill
  • A spot well clear of buildings
  • Permission from the venue or landowner

As a London location, Becontree is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

For planners, venues and organisers

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

How we price a catered barbecue

Things that change the price:

  • How many people are eating
  • Season and day of the week
  • Access to the cooking area
  • Crockery choices

Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

What to tell us

These are the details we need:

  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • The venue or postcode
  • An estimate of numbers

We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.
