BBQ catering in Woodford

Woodford questions

What if our house in Woodford has no side access?

Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.

Can you do a barbecue in The Highams Park?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

Will guests know what’s in each dish?

You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve, and we’ll label the meat-free choices clearly.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. Our chef cooks outdoors, under cover, at your event, with our staff serving and clearing.

Should we have every meat?

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

How far ahead should we book a barbecue?

Once your date is fixed, especially for June to September. But ask even at short notice: use our quote form.

Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?

Yes, and it is a popular combination. Ask and we will quote for the mix.

How soon do you get booked up?

As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.

How our BBQ catering works in Woodford

A barbecue suits mixed groups well, because there’s beef, chicken and pork to choose from, and proper vegetarian and vegan options too. On the menu are halloumi skewers, BBQ ribs and pulled pork, and we’re frequently booked for fundraising days and street parties.

In a London neighbourhood like Woodford, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. If there is no side passage, a rear gate or yard may work, and send us a photo. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

What BBQ catering costs

Things that change the price:

  • Crockery choices
  • Site access
  • Season and day of the week
  • Distance from us

What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

Getting an accurate quote

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Your date and serving time
  • An estimate of numbers
  • Allergies we should know about
  • The venue or postcode

For a quote, send us a few details: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Send us your details through our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs

We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:

  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Ask about allergies when guests reply

Running late? Let us know, and we’ll work around it where possible.

Sides turn a barbecue into a proper meal.

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself

Next to doing the barbecue yourself, nobody you know spends the event at the grill, and the cooking is in experienced hands. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.

What you get with us

  • Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
  • Timed around your day
  • No surprises: everything in writing
  • Our chef at the grill, not you

Planners, venues and businesses

Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

What happens on the day

With cover over the grill, the weather rarely holds us up, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. By late September, sunset in Woodford is about 7:05pm; in December it is about 3:50pm. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.

  1. We start with your date, venue and numbers.
  2. Pick the menu with us.
  3. We check the space and quote.
  4. We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We clear up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan lighting if the barbecue runs into the evening
  • Name a contact for the day
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Before you choose a spot

The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:

  • Space for our vehicle nearby
  • Room for a serving table next to the grill
  • Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit

Woodford is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
