Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
  • Mention any guests who avoid beef
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food

We get there well before service, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.

For a more filling menu, add pulled pork or brisket.

About our BBQ catering in Crook Log

From a small family gathering to a big club day, a catered barbecue scales to the occasion. Give us an idea of numbers and we will suggest a menu. Whether it is summer staff days and family celebrations, we can cook coleslaw, halloumi skewers and beef brisket for your guests.

In a London neighbourhood like Crook Log, 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 send us a photo. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

How to plan a catered barbecue

What comes off the grill

Beef burgers

Beef burgers are quick to grill, which helps at busy times.

Pulled pork

Because it’s slow-cooked, pulled pork is ready as soon as we start serving, so nobody waits for the grill.

Where the barbecue can go in Crook Log

Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:

  • A spot well clear of buildings
  • Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
  • Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue

As a London location, Crook Log is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Is a barbecue right for your event?

Next to doing the barbecue yourself, nobody you know spends the event at the grill, and the cooking is in experienced hands. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

Why Crook Log hosts choose us

  • Served at the time you choose
  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • Hot food straight off the grill
  • An itemised quote

A few things make the biggest difference to the price:

  • Travel to Crook Log
  • Access to the cooking area
  • Crockery choices
  • The date and time of year

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.

Crook Log: your questions answered

Could you cook in Danson Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

What’s the nearest station to Crook Log?

Bexleyheath station, in Crook Log itself.

Can it be a sit-down meal?

Yes, on plates with salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

Will children like the BBQ?

Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, and a vegan sausage covers anyone who doesn’t eat meat. Tell us roughly how many are coming.

Is crockery included?

We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

Is clearing up included?

Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.

What do you need from the venue?

A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Tell us what’s available on site and we’ll confirm the rest when we quote.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes, at your event, on a spot we agree with you. The barbecue needs a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings and trees.

The process

A barbecue is cooked as people eat, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. That keeps everything hot and fresh. For an evening barbecue in Crook Log, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the serving area after that.

  1. Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
  2. We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
  3. We set up under cover before service.
  4. Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
  5. We clear the serving area and go.

Before we arrive

  • Keep the grill downwind of the seating
  • Tell us which meats you’d like in advance
  • Arrange lighting for a late barbecue

Getting a price

Send us the date, the address or DA7 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.
