BBQ catering in Thorpe Green, served hot
A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. With BBQ catering, all of that is done for you, so you can enjoy your own event. Whether it is Fêtes, fairs and sports days and informal weddings, we can cook BBQ ribs, chicken skewers and beef burgers for your guests.
Near Thorpe Green, barbecues often happen in gardens and fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll plan the route. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
On the day, we arrive in good time to set up, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.

Thorpe Green: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Thorpe Green?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Thorpe Green close to London?
Roughly 20 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you barbecue in bad weather?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.
Is there anything for vegans?
We do. There’s a halloumi option and a vegan option.
Can you do halal?
No, we do not offer halal meat. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
Yes. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.
Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?
We give you allergen information for every dish, and we will label the meat-free choices clearly.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, at your event, on a spot we agree with you. We need a level, open area outdoors with room for the grill and a serving table.
Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Next to a formal plated meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and it doesn’t need a kitchen. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Space, access and the venue
A barbecue needs a level, open spot outdoors with cover. Here’s what helps:
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
- Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
- A green light from whoever owns the site
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
