How our BBQ catering works in Hooe Common
In Hooe Common, a barbecue is a favourite for relaxed events: familiar food, lots of choice and no formality. With us cooking, nobody you know spends the afternoon at the grill. Typical bookings include relaxed weddings and evening receptions and team days and staff summer parties, serving pulled pork, chicken skewers and BBQ ribs.
In a small place like Hooe Common, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you’re not left handing out rolls.

FAQs for Hooe Common
How far is Hooe Common from London?
Roughly 49 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Hooe Common too small for a barbecue?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Yes. With salads and potatoes, it is a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
What does the venue need to provide?
Space and a way in, mainly: somewhere level outside for the barbecue and the serving table. We’ll confirm details when we quote.
Can you barbecue in bad weather?
We bring cover for the grill, but guests will want shelter too.
Do you cover Hooe Common?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
How many meats should we choose?
Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. A shorter menu also speeds up service.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
What BBQ catering costs
The price comes down to:
- Season and day of the week
- The journey to the venue
- Crockery choices
- Numbers
The menu makes a big difference to the price: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Allergies we should know about
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The venue or postcode
- Rough numbers
Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.
Planning the cooking spot
A barbecue needs a level, open spot outdoors with cover. Here’s what we look for:
- A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
- Somewhere for us to park close to the cooking spot
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.
