How our BBQ catering works in Kentish Town
A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. With BBQ catering, all of that is done for you, so you can enjoy your own event. We serve beef burgers, sausages and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for birthdays and milestone parties and close and cul-de-sac parties.
In a London neighbourhood like Kentish Town, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us about a rear gate, a front garden or a yard, and send us a photo. All the barbecue, none of the effort: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.

Step by step
Barbecue food is best straight off the grill, so we cook to order through service. Slow-cooked meats are ready as soon as service begins, so nobody waits for the first round. For an evening barbecue in Kentish Town, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:05pm. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.

- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
