BBQ catering in Send, cooked on site
Whether it is twenty friends in a garden or a whole workforce in a car park, a barbecue can be planned around the size of your event. Give us an idea of numbers and we’ll suggest a menu. Whether it’s charity fundraisers and retirement do’s, we will put together a menu of sausages, beef brisket and beef burgers.
In a place like Send, a barbecue at home is generally the easiest option. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we’ll do the rest. All the barbecue, none of the effort: we shop, cook, serve and clear.
Allergies and dietary needs
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Ask which items contain gluten
Our chef cooks through the agreed service time, and our staff serve and keep the queue moving.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
Working with your venue
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
If you are a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
How we price a catered barbecue
Your quote depends on:
- The number of people
- The date and time of year
- Access to the cooking area
- Distance from us
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Any venue rules
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many people
- The date and time of the event
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We will confirm availability and send a price. Use our quote form.

PTAs at schools such as Send CofE Primary School frequently look for a barbecue for fairs and sports days. A green space like White Rose Lane is tempting, but a catered barbecue there needs the landowner’s say-so. Send is within about 6 miles of the Surrey Hills National Landscape. Venues there may restrict open cooking, so ask about their rules first.

How it works
The barbecue goes on the agreed spot, so your event carries on around us. Smoke drifts, so we will think about the wind with you. For an evening barbecue in Send, think about light: it’s light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. Plan lights for the serving area after that.
- Start with the occasion, the date and the venue.
- You get a suggested menu and a price.
- We set up the grill before food time.
- We serve as people come up.
- The serving area is cleared before we leave.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a spot where smoke blows away from guests
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Send
Can you do a barbecue in White Rose Lane?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you cover Send?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.
What if it rains?
We bring cover for the grill, but guests will want shelter too.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Usually, yes: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Give us a rough number of children.
What meats do you barbecue?
You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
Is a barbecue right for your event?
Next to a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so for bigger events, why not both?. What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Why book with us
- Hot food straight off the grill
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
