About our BBQ catering in Glynde
Food from a barbecue is best eaten hot off the grill, so we cook and serve through the agreed service time. Tell us when you’d like to eat and we’ll work to it. Typical bookings include cricket, football and rugby club days and informal weddings, with beef brisket, sausages and pulled pork.
In a small place like Glynde, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will plan the route. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish before you book.

Common questions in Glynde
Do you come out to small places like Glynde?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How far is Glynde from London?
Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
We cook under cover, so the season doesn’t stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
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.
How much choice do we need?
You do not need everything. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Of course. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides.
What do children normally eat?
Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Let us know numbers for children.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

What comes off the grill
Pulled pork
Because it’s slow-cooked, pulled pork is ready as soon as we start serving, which keeps the queue moving.
Sausages
Grilled until golden and cooked right through, they’re the easy crowd-pleaser.
Why choose BBQ catering in Glynde?
Compared with a DIY barbecue, 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 makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
