About our BBQ catering in Burpham
For bigger events in Burpham, a barbecue can sit alongside a hog roast, so there’s a centrepiece and plenty of choice. We can quote for either or both. Whether it’s leaving parties and relaxed weddings and evening receptions, we’ll put together a menu of coleslaw, sausages and chicken skewers.
In a place like Burpham, a barbecue at home is generally the easiest option. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we will do the rest. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve.
How we price a catered barbecue
There is no fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:
- Numbers
- Plates or china
- Travel to Burpham
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- An estimate of numbers
- The address or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Any dietary needs or allergies
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or GU4 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Use our quote form.
Common questions in Burpham
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Could you cook in Riverside Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What if it rains?
We cook under cover, so rain is not a problem for the food. Have a gazebo, marquee or room indoors for eating.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
How many meats should we choose?
Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. Fewer items keeps service quick.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
Summer is the busiest time, but we cook all year. Guests will want somewhere dry and warm.
What meats do you barbecue?
Burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket, with halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?
Yes, ask us to label the food. Let us know about allergies before the day.
The menu, dish by dish
Beef burgers
Burgers cook quickly on the grill, so they keep the queue moving alongside the slow-cooked meats.
Pulled pork
Pulled pork is slow-cooked until it falls apart, piled into rolls, often with coleslaw.
Step by step
We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then our chef cooks and the team serves for as long as we have agreed. Evening barbecues in Burpham need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.
- Start with the occasion, the date and the venue.
- You get a suggested menu and a price.
- We set up the grill before food time.
- We serve as people come up.
- The serving area is cleared before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Choose the menu a week or so before
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

Why choose BBQ catering in Burpham?
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so some events have both. What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.
Why us?
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
- An itemised quote
- Our chef at the grill, not you
