BBQ catering in Lewisham, served hot
Some of the best barbecues are the ones where the host gets to sit down. Our chef cooks, our staff serve and we tidy up afterwards, so your time goes on your guests, not the food. For retirement do’s and work barbecues, we can cook beef burgers, pulled pork and coleslaw for your guests.
Gardens in Lewisham tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so we look for a spot where smoke drifts away from windows and fences. A word with the neighbours beforehand always helps. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.

The process
With cover over the grill, the weather rarely holds us up, but plan somewhere dry for people to eat. For an evening barbecue in Lewisham, think about light: it is light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. Plan lights for the serving area after that.
- Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

- An itemised quote
- Our chef at the grill, not you
- Add a hog roast alongside
- Serving and clearing done for you

What comes off the grill
Sausages
Grilled until golden and cooked right through, they’re the easy crowd-pleaser.
Beef brisket
Slow-cooked beef brisket, sliced to serve, for a more substantial plate.
Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot tidy.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

Common questions in Lewisham
Could you cook in Ladywell Fields?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Can you get a barbecue into a London garden in Lewisham?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, on site at your venue in Lewisham. We need a level, open area outdoors with room for the grill and a serving table.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
Yes, and it is a popular combination. Tell us your numbers and we’ll suggest a split.
How soon do barbecue dates go?
Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Midweek dates are generally easier to get. Fill in our quote form.
Will you clear up afterwards?
We tidy the serving area, so there is very little washing up. Ask if you’d like china.
Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?
Yes: halloumi and vegetable skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage for vegans. Tell us numbers so there’s enough.
Do you come to Lewisham?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.
