Organising for someone else?
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, 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 you both updated.
How our BBQ catering works in Horsell
Hosting a barbecue normally means shopping, prepping, cooking and clearing. With BBQ catering, all of that is done for you, so you can enjoy your own event. We serve chicken skewers, halloumi skewers and pulled pork, and we’re frequently booked for street parties and work barbecues.
For a barbecue in Horsell, the garden is often the best venue. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we’ll do the rest. You get a barbecue without the work: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.
Barbecue venues around Horsell

If the day starts at a church like Church of St Mary the Virgin, the barbecue can be ready at a hall or garden close by. Thinking of a barbecue in Milford Green and Coxhill Green? Many parks ban barbecues, and catering needs the landowner’s permission, usually the council’s.

Your event could be at a house on Elm Road, Heath Road and Popes Lane, as long as there’s somewhere outside to cook. Being close to the A3046, Horsell is simple for us to get to with the barbecue.

Step by step
We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then our chef cooks and the team serves through the time you’ve chosen. In Horsell, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so an early-evening barbecue is usually in daylight.
- We start with your date, venue and numbers.
- Choose your meats and sides.
- We confirm the cooking spot and send a quote.
- On the day, our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We clear up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Tell us which meats you’d like in advance
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival

Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue with a little planning. Check these:
- A wet-weather plan for your guests
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
