BBQ catering in Broomfield, served hot
Food from a barbecue is best eaten hot off the grill, which is why we cook and serve as your guests come up. Tell us when you’d like to eat and we’ll plan around it. Whether it is reunions and family get-togethers and back-garden get-togethers, we’ll put together a menu of sausages, halloumi skewers and BBQ ribs for your guests.
Near Broomfield, barbecues frequently happen in gardens and fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will handle the rest. You get a barbecue without the work: we shop, cook, serve and clear.
For event organisers in Broomfield
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
The process
Before service, we set up the grill and the serving table on the agreed spot. Then our chef cooks and the team serves through the time you’ve chosen. Sunset in Broomfield is about 8:45pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.

Planning the cooking spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- A spot well clear of buildings
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Ask which items contain gluten
We bring everything we need to cook and serve, so there is no need to borrow a grill.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.

Which station is closest to Broomfield?
Herne Bay station, about 1.5 miles west of the centre.
Could you cook in Curtis Wood?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What do children typically eat?
Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Let us know numbers for children.
Is the meat halal?
We don’t offer halal. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.
Is the barbecue cooked on site?
Yes, on site, outdoors and under cover, and our staff serve and clear.
When should we book BBQ catering?
Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Midweek dates are normally easier to get. Send us your details through our quote form.
Do you need anything from us?
Space and a way in, mainly: a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings, with cover over the grill. We’ll confirm details when we quote.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
What BBQ catering costs

- Distance from us
- The date and time of year

Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.
What we need to know
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Any venue rules
- The venue or postcode
- Your date and serving time
- Rough numbers
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.
