A barbecue near Kearsney

How the day works

We arrive in good time before service, so the grill is hot by the time you want to eat. The smell soon brings people over. Evening barbecues in Kearsney need a little planning: it is light until about 9:15pm in June but only about 7:00pm in late September. Plan lights for the serving area after that.

  1. Send us the date, the place and roughly how many.
  2. Pick the menu with us.
  3. We confirm the cooking spot and send a quote.
  4. On the day, our chef cooks and our staff serve.
  5. We pack away and leave the area tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Think about lights for the serving area after dark
  • Keep the grill downwind of the seating

Ask for a quote

It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.

About our BBQ catering in Kearsney

A good barbecue is about more than burgers: pulled pork, brisket and ribs turn it into a proper meal, served with salads, coleslaw and potatoes. We’re frequently asked to cater family celebrations and 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays, serving chicken skewers, pulled pork and sausages.

Barbecues around Kearsney are often relaxed garden affairs. A catered barbecue fits right in, with nobody you know stuck at the grill. You will know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

Before you choose a spot

Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:

  • Room for a serving table next to the grill
  • The venue’s agreement for an outside caterer
  • A step-free route to wheel the equipment in

Barbecue venues around Kearsney

Kearsney is about 1 mile north-west of Dover, in Kent. Kearsney and the surrounding area are covered for events. We cover all 922 towns and villages in Kent. We cater events right across the region, from Kearsney to Canterbury (about 12 miles away).

A green space like Old Park Hill is tempting, but a catered barbecue there needs the landowner’s say-so. After a christening at a church such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, a barbecue at home or a hall nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. Kearsney is within about 7 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, so a countryside barbecue here comes with a view. Venues there may restrict open cooking, so ask about their rules first. With the coast within about 3 miles of Kearsney, wind is the thing to plan for: we choose a sheltered spot for the grill and keep smoke away from guests.

We cater events across CT16 and CT17 and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Park Road, Lower Road and The Avenue, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the barbecue. For events just outside Kearsney, we cover Temple Ewell (1 mile north), River (1 mile south-east), Whitfield (1 mile north-east), Wolverton (1 mile west) and Dover (1 mile south-east). We also serve nearby towns such as Canterbury (12 miles north-west), Folkestone (6 miles south-west), Ramsgate (15 miles north-east), Deal (7 miles north-east), Hythe (10 miles south-west) and Walmer (7 miles north-east).

Well-known places in the area include Crabble Corn Mill (0.7 miles south-east) and Dover Castle (2.7 miles south-east). Open spaces near Kearsney include Dover Western Heights.

  • Nearby schools include Dover Christ Church Academy (1.6 miles south-east)
  • Pubs nearby include Royal Oak Cottage The Royal Oak Public House (0.5 miles south-east)
