How our BBQ catering works in South Hampstead

There’s more to a catered barbecue than burgers: pulled pork, brisket and ribs turn it into a proper meal, with salads, coleslaw and potatoes on the side. Typical bookings include retirement do’s and charity fundraisers, with pulled pork, beef brisket and beef burgers.

Around South Hampstead, most London barbecues are in back gardens, yards, courtyards and car parks. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us about a rear gate, a front garden or a yard, and a picture helps us check. All the barbecue, none of the effort: we shop, cook, serve and clear.

Could you cook in Primrose Hill?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.

Which station is closest to South Hampstead?

South Hampstead station, in South Hampstead itself.

Can we have a barbecue in winter?

We cook under cover, so the season doesn’t stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.

Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. Fewer items keeps service quick.

Will you clear up afterwards?

We tidy the serving area, so there’s very little washing up. China is available on request.

Meat is cooked until it is steaming hot all the way through, with no pink and juices running clear, following Food Standards Agency advice.

Can it be a sit-down meal?

Yes. Plates come as standard, with sides such as salads and potatoes, and china is available on request.
