BBQ catering in Tooting, cooked on site

Some hosts in Tooting pair a barbecue with a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. Ask and we will quote for both. Popular choices include coleslaw, BBQ ribs and beef burgers, and typical bookings are for big birthday parties and sports clubs and team events.

In a London neighbourhood like Tooting, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. If there’s no side passage, a rear gate or yard may work, and a picture helps us check. You get a barbecue without the work: we shop, cook, serve and clear.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:

  • Let us know roughly how many children are coming
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
  • Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed

We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, so the event carries on around us.

For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.

A catered barbecue compared with other options

Compared with a DIY barbecue, nobody you know spends the event at the grill, and the food is cooked properly by people who do it every week. What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

Why us?

  • Pair it with a hog roast if you like
  • Hot food straight off the grill
  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Serving and clearing done for you

What the cooking area needs

Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. Check these:

  • Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
  • A green light from whoever owns the site
  • Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains

Tooting is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Planning a barbecue

How the day works

Running late? Tell us as early as you can, and we will adjust where we can. A barbecue is easy to time, as most of it is cooked as people eat. In Tooting, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.

  1. Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
  2. We check the cooking spot and quote.
  3. We set up under cover before service.
  4. At food time, we cook and serve.
  5. We tidy up and pack away.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about tight access
  • Confirm your menu choices in good time
  • Gather dietary requirements early

Ask for a quote

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.

Among the historic houses close to Tooting are Southside House (3 miles west) and Kingswood House (3.6 miles east).

Churches such as St Augustine rarely have room for a barbecue, but a hall or home nearby normally does.

Here we cover the SW17, SW19 and CR4 postcode area. That could mean an event in a garden on Vant Road, Byton Road and Avarn Road, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the barbecue. For events just outside Tooting, we cover Tooting Bec (1 mile north-west), Colliers Wood (1 mile south), Furzedown (1 mile east), Streatham Park (1 mile east) and Summerstown (1 mile north-west).

What affects the price in Tooting

Each price is built from:

  • Distance from us
  • Season and day of the week
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • The number of people

When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

What we need to know

To get the best quote, send us:

  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Your date and serving time
  • Rough numbers
  • Dietary requirements

Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Use our quote form.

About the food

Pulled pork

Because it is slow-cooked, pulled pork is ready as soon as we start serving, which keeps the queue moving.

Chicken skewers

Chicken on skewers suits mingling guests, with salad or in a roll.

For event organisers in Tooting

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 can fit around your other suppliers.
