BBQ catering in Chipstead, served hot
Some hosts in Chipstead pair a barbecue with a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. We can quote for either or both. We serve sausages, beef burgers and pulled pork, and we are regularly asked to cater engagement and anniversary parties and club open days.
A barbecue in the countryside near Chipstead makes a lovely summer party. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. All the barbecue, none of the effort: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.
Why choose BBQ catering in Chipstead?
Next to a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, which helps when some guests do not eat pork. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so some events have both. What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.
Why book with us
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Meat-free choices on every menu
- Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
- Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more
