How our BBQ catering works in Bogle
Food from a barbecue is best eaten hot off the grill, so we cook and serve through the agreed service time. Tell us when you’d like to eat and we will work to it. Popular choices include coleslaw, halloumi skewers and BBQ ribs, and typical bookings are for cricket, football and rugby club days and fundraising days.
Country barbecues near Bogle are hard to beat on a summer evening. Plan shelter in case it rains, and think about lighting if it runs late. All the barbecue, none of the effort: we shop, cook, serve and clear.
What BBQ catering costs
Here’s what affects the price:
- Whether you want china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Numbers
- Travel to Bogle
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- The venue or postcode
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Roughly how many people
- Any venue rules
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: fill in our quote form.
FAQs for Bogle
How far is Bogle from London?
Roughly 40 miles from the centre of London.
Do you cater at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do you offer halal meat?
No, we do not offer halal meat. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.
How far ahead should we book a barbecue?
The earlier the better for summer weekends. Midweek dates are typically easier to get. Use our quote form.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tell us your numbers and we’ll suggest a split.
Do you cover Bogle?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll confirm availability.
Can we have a barbecue in winter?
We cook under cover, so the season does not stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
The serving table is kept tidy and stocked, so the barbecue looks as good at the end as at the start.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.

A catered BBQ in Bogle: what to know
Bogle is about 3 miles south-east of Sittingbourne, in Kent. Bogle is well within our area for events. Bogle is one of 922 places in Kent we cover. Our bookings stretch from Bogle to Canterbury (13 miles away).
For anyone arriving by rail, the nearest station is Teynham station, about 1.1 miles north-east. Nearby historic houses include Belmont House and Gardens (4 miles south-east).

Is a barbecue right for your event?
Compared with hiring a venue’s in-house menu, you pick the meats, the sides and the meat-free options yourself, and eat outdoors. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

The process
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower will not stop it, but plan somewhere dry for people to eat. In Bogle, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:15pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
- We set up under cover before service.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan lighting if the barbecue runs into the evening
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Tell us which meats you’d like in advance
