BBQ catering in Dunsfold, served hot
Some of the best barbecues are the ones where the host gets to sit down. Our chef cooks, our staff serve and we tidy up afterwards, so your time goes on your guests, not the food. We serve pulled pork, BBQ ribs and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for work barbecues and family celebrations.
Near Dunsfold, barbecues often happen in gardens and fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will plan the route. All the barbecue, none of the effort: we shop, cook, serve and clear.

Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London.
What happens after service?

Will guests know what’s in each dish?

Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
