BBQ catering in Sandhurst Cross
BBQ catering in Sandhurst Cross, served hot
The point of a catered barbecue is that you get to enjoy it. Our chef cooks, our staff serve and we tidy up afterwards, so your time goes on your guests, not the food. Popular choices include halloumi skewers, sausages and pulled pork, and we are often booked for close and cul-de-sac parties and engagement and anniversary parties.
In a small place like Sandhurst Cross, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will handle the rest. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
Sandhurst Cross questions
Do you cater at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
What’s the nearest station to Sandhurst Cross?
Robertsbridge station, about 4.3 miles south-west of the centre.
Should we have every meat?
You don’t need everything. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket and we’ll advise on the rest.
Is there anything for vegans?
Yes: halloumi and vegetable skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage for vegans. Tell us numbers so there’s enough.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
We can. A hog roast gives you a centrepiece and the barbecue adds variety.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Of course. With salads and potatoes, it’s a proper meal on a plate.
Do you come to Sandhurst Cross?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
Step by step
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower won’t stop it, but plan somewhere dry for people to eat. In Sandhurst Cross, late May sunsets come at about 8:45pm and midsummer ones at about 9:15pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.

Getting ready for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Keep the grill downwind of the seating

Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- A wet-weather plan for your guests
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
