BBQ catering in Roser's Cross, cooked on site
Some of the best barbecues are the ones where the host gets to sit down. We look after the grill, the serving and the clearing, so your time goes on your guests, not the food. Whether it’s work barbecues and reunions and family get-togethers, we will put together a menu of coleslaw, beef brisket and BBQ ribs.
Country barbecues near Roser's Cross are hard to beat on a summer evening. Plan shelter in case it rains, and think about lighting if it runs late. You get a barbecue without the work: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.

What BBQ catering costs
We work out each quote from:
- The date and time of year
- Crockery choices
- Access to the cooking area
- How many people are eating
Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Getting an accurate quote
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- Dietary requirements

The menu, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Sausages
Sausages are a barbecue favourite, in a roll or on a plate.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the moment service begins, which takes the pressure off the grill.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
How it works
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. It means food comes off the grill hot. At midsummer, it is light in Roser's Cross until about 9:15pm, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:05pm.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
- We set up under cover before service.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Before we arrive
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Think about where the smoke will drift
- Think about shelter for your guests

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with a barbecue cooked by friends, a catered barbecue means everyone gets to be a guest, and the food is cooked by people who do it every week. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

Roser's Cross: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Roser's Cross?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you cater at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
Most barbecues are in summer, but we can cook in any season, with cover over the grill. Plan shelter for your guests.
Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?
We give you allergen information for every dish, and we can label the vegetarian and vegan options.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Of course. With salads and potatoes, it’s a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
Do you offer halal meat?
We do not offer halal. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.
What do you need from the venue?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Let us know about the site and we will confirm what we need.
How soon do you get booked up?
