For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
BBQ catering in Iping, cooked on site
There is more to a catered barbecue than burgers: slow-cooked pulled pork, sliced beef brisket and glazed ribs make it feel like a meal, served with salads, coleslaw and potatoes. For cricket, football and rugby club days and relaxed weddings and evening receptions, we can cook sausages, chicken skewers and BBQ ribs and more.
A barbecue in the countryside near Iping makes a lovely summer party. Plan shelter in case it rains. Everything is cooked through properly, with raw and cooked food kept apart.

Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the rest of the space to you.
For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.

Beef brisket
Sliced brisket adds a grown-up touch.
The process
If timings shift on the day, let your contact know, and we’ll work around it. A barbecue is easy to time, as most of it is cooked as people eat. A summer barbecue in Iping stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. In late September, it’s dark by about 7:05pm.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the cooking spot and quote.
- We set up under cover before service.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know about children’s numbers
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
