BBQ catering for Westbrook
For event organisers in Westbrook
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
How our BBQ catering works in Westbrook
We cook outdoors, under cover, on a spot we agree with you, away from buildings, fences and overhanging branches. Send us a photo of the space and we will confirm it. For garden parties and school fairs and summer fêtes, we will put together a menu of BBQ ribs, pulled pork and coleslaw for your guests.
Barbecues around Westbrook are frequently relaxed garden affairs. A catered barbecue fits right in, with nobody you know stuck at the grill. 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
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the moment service begins, which takes the pressure off the grill.
Pulled pork and brisket make the menu feel more substantial.
Your questions about a catered barbecue in Westbrook
Which station is closest to Westbrook?
Margate station, in Westbrook itself.
How far is Westbrook from London?
About 63 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can we have a barbecue in winter?
We cook under cover, so the season doesn’t stop us. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.
Will children like the BBQ?
Generally, yes: simple food in a roll suits most children. Tell us how many children to expect.
What do you need from the venue?
Space and a way in, mainly: somewhere level outside for the barbecue and the serving table. We will confirm details when we quote.
Can you cater in Westbrook?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
Beef burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

What affects the price in Westbrook
The biggest factors are:
- The date and time of year
- Numbers
- Access to the cooking area
- Whether you want china
Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Dietary requirements
- The address or postcode
- The date and time of the event
- An estimate of numbers
Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.
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. For an evening barbecue in Westbrook, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:15pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:00pm. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.
