BBQ catering in Chipstead, served hot
A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. With BBQ catering, all of that is done for you, so you can enjoy your own event. We are often asked to cater street parties and leaving and retirement parties, with beef burgers, pulled pork and halloumi skewers.
In a London neighbourhood like Chipstead, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us about a rear gate, a front garden or a yard, and a photo helps us check. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve.

Common questions in Chipstead
Could you cook in Fames Rough?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can you get a barbecue into a London garden in Chipstead?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?
We do. There’s a halloumi option and a vegan option.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
Burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket, with halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
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.
How much choice do we need?
Not generally. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
Do you cook the barbecue on site?
Yes, on site, outdoors and under cover, and our staff serve and clear.
A catered barbecue compared with other options
Next to a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, 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. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book with us
- Timed around your day
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Pulled pork
Pulled pork is ready to serve from the start of service, so nobody waits for the grill.
How the day works
Grilled food is at its best when it’s hot, so we cook and serve through the agreed time. Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the start, which keeps the queue moving. Autumn and winter barbecues in Chipstead get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
