Why choose BBQ catering in West Peckham?
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, which helps when some guests don’t eat pork. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so for bigger events, why not both?. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Why book our barbecue in West Peckham
- Cooked on site by our chef
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Add a hog roast alongside
- Vegetarian and vegan options as standard

About the food
Chicken skewers
Chicken gives guests who don’t eat pork or beef a meat option.
Sausages
Cooked through and browned on the grill, they’re the easy crowd-pleaser.

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls

Our chef cooks through the agreed service time, and our staff serve and keep the queue moving.
China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.
