How our BBQ catering works in Ruislip

BBQ catering means we bring the barbecue and do the cooking. We cook on site at your event in Ruislip, outdoors under cover, and our staff serve and clear. Typical bookings include school fairs and summer fêtes and back-garden get-togethers, serving halloumi skewers, chicken skewers and sausages.

Gardens in Ruislip tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so placing the grill so smoke clears the houses matters. A word with the neighbours beforehand always helps. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Ruislip

Which station is closest to Ruislip?

The closest is West Ruislip station, roughly 1.3 miles away.

What if our house in Ruislip has no side access?

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

Can you barbecue in bad weather?

The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop it. Have a gazebo, marquee or room indoors for eating.

How far ahead should we book a barbecue?

As soon as you know the date, especially for June to September. Short notice is still worth a try: use our quote form.

Is the barbecue cooked on site?

Yes, at your event, on a spot we agree with you. The barbecue needs a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings and trees.

Can you serve the barbecue on plates?

Of course. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides.

Will you clear up afterwards?

Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.

How do you handle food safety?

Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with raw and cooked food kept apart, following Food Standards Agency advice.

What affects the price in Ruislip

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • The number of people
  • Plates or china
  • Access to the cooking area
  • Distance from us

Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.

What we need to know

To check the date and the space, tell us:

  • The venue or postcode
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • The date and time of the event
  • Roughly how many people

It’s easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You’ll get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.

Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

  • Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs

Our chef cooks through the agreed service time, while our staff serve and keep things flowing.

How to plan a catered barbecue

The process

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. A summer barbecue in Ruislip stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. In late September, it is dark by about 7:05pm.

  1. Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
  2. We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
  3. We arrive in good time and get the barbecue hot.
  4. Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
  5. We clear the serving area and go.

Before we arrive

  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Think about where the smoke will drift
  • Tell us which meats you’d like in advance

How to get a price
