BBQ catering for your event in Peel Common
BBQ catering means we bring the barbecue and do the cooking. We cook on site at your event in Peel Common, outdoors under cover, while our staff serve your guests and tidy up. We serve beef burgers, chicken skewers and BBQ ribs, and we are often booked for summer staff days and engagement and anniversary parties.
Near Peel Common, barbecues frequently happen in gardens and fields. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. You’ll know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.
How it works
We arrive in good time before service, so the barbecue is ready when you are. The smell soon brings people over. A summer barbecue in Peel Common stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. In late September, it is dark by about 7:10pm.
- We start with your date, venue and numbers.
- Choose your meats and sides.
- We check the space and quote.
- We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack away and leave the area tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Think about lights for the serving area after dark
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

- Access to the cooking area
- The journey to the venue
- Crockery choices

Common questions in Peel Common
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
How far is Peel Common from London?
Roughly 67 miles from the centre of London.
Is the food cooked safely?
Cooking properly is our job: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.
Do you label the food for allergies?
We give you allergen information for every dish, and we will label the meat-free choices clearly.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Yes. With salads and potatoes, it is a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
We cook under cover, so rain isn’t a problem for the food. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
Yes. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.
Do you need anything from us?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Tell us what’s available on site and we’ll confirm the rest when we quote.
Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
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.
