How our BBQ catering works in Dungeness
The barbecue goes on a level, open spot outdoors with cover over it, well clear of walls, marquee sides and trees. Send us a photo of the space and we will confirm it. For close and cul-de-sac parties and engagement and anniversary parties, we’ll put together a menu of beef brisket, coleslaw and pulled pork.
In a small place like Dungeness, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls.

FAQs for Dungeness
Is Dungeness close to London?
Roughly 61 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Dungeness?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Tell us your numbers and we will suggest a split.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
How many meats should we choose?
Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. Fewer items keeps service quick.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
How do you handle food safety?
Cooking properly is our job: separate equipment for raw and cooked food, and everything cooked through.

What happens on the day
We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then it is a case of cooking and serving for as long as we’ve agreed. For an evening barbecue in Dungeness, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:15pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:00pm. Plan lights for the serving area after that.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
- We set up under cover before service.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
The serving table is kept tidy and stocked, right through the service.
For a more filling menu, add pulled pork or brisket.

Working with your venue
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Next to doing the barbecue yourself, nobody you know spends the event at the grill, and the food is cooked properly by people who do it every week. Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
