About our BBQ catering in Mottingham

We cook outdoors, under cover, on a spot we agree with you, away from buildings, fences and overhanging branches. Send us a picture of the space and we will confirm it. We serve pulled pork, sausages and halloumi skewers, and we’re frequently booked for relaxed weddings and evening receptions and Fêtes, fairs and sports days.

Around Mottingham, most London barbecues are in back gardens, yards, courtyards and car parks. If there’s no side passage, a rear gate or yard may work, and send us a picture. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve.

How the day works

A barbecue is cooked as people eat, so we time our arrival around your serving time. That keeps everything hot and fresh. A summer barbecue in Mottingham stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:05pm.

  1. Send us the date, the place and roughly how many.
  2. Pick the menu with us.
  3. We check the space and 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

  • Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
  • Think about lights for the serving area after dark

Ask for a quote

We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or SE9 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Send us your details through our quote form.

Where the barbecue can go in Mottingham

Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:

  • Parking near the grill
  • Space for the barbecue and a serving table
  • A wet-weather plan for your guests

As a London location, Mottingham is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Mottingham

Can you get a barbecue into a London garden in Mottingham?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.

Could you cook in Chinbrook Meadows?

Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.

What do children typically eat?

Yes, generally: simple food in a roll suits most children. Tell us how many children to expect.

What do you need from the venue?

Mostly space and access: a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings, with cover over the grill. We’ll check anything else with you.

Can you do a hog roast as well?

We can. A hog roast gives you a centrepiece and the barbecue adds variety.

How soon do you get booked up?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.

Is the food cooked safely?

Meat is cooked until it’s steaming hot all the way through, with no pink and juices running clear, following Food Standards Agency advice.

Is there anything for vegans?

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V) and a vegan burger or sausage (Ve). Tell us numbers so there’s enough.

Allergies and dietary needs

We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:

  • Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
  • Add a dietary question to the invitation
  • Tell us about children’s numbers
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them

The barbecue goes where we agreed, so the event carries on around us.

Sides turn a barbecue into a proper meal.

Beef brisket

Sliced brisket adds a grown-up touch, especially at a wedding or work event.

Sausages

Barbecued sausages are always popular, in a roll or on a plate.

A barbecue or other catering?

Compared with a sit-down meal, a barbecue keeps things informal, and it doesn’t need a kitchen. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

How we price a catered barbecue

A few things make the biggest difference to the price:

  • Distance from us
  • How many people are eating
  • The date and time of year
  • Plates or china

What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
