FAQs for Harlington
What if our house in Harlington has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Could you cook in Lake Farm Country Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can it be a sit-down meal?
Of course. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides; ask about china if you’d like it.
Do you label the food for allergies?
Yes, ask us to label the food. Tell us about allergies in advance.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
Beef burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, with halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Is barbecued chicken safe?
Meat is cooked until it is steaming hot all the way through, with no pink and juices running clear, in line with Food Standards Agency guidance.
Can you do halal?
We do not. Please arrange halal food separately if anyone needs it.
How many meats should we choose?
You don’t need everything. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket and we will advise on the rest.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
All the cooking and serving equipment comes with us, so you don’t need to find grills or tongs.
Sides turn a barbecue into a proper meal.
