Your questions about a catered barbecue in Woodrow

Is Woodrow close to London?

About 26 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Is Woodrow too small for a barbecue?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

What’s on your BBQ menu?

You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.

What happens after service?

Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.

How do you handle food safety?

Meat is cooked until it’s steaming hot all the way through, with no pink and juices running clear, in line with Food Standards Agency guidance.

Can you barbecue in bad weather?

The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Have a gazebo, marquee or room indoors for eating.

Do you bring plates?

We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

Will children like the BBQ?

Yes, generally: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Tell us how many children to expect.

Looking after everyone

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Let us know roughly how many children are coming
  • Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
  • Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
  • Add a dietary question to the invitation

If timings change, tell your contact as early as you can, and we will work around it where possible.

Sides turn a barbecue into a proper meal.

What comes off the grill

Chicken skewers

Chicken gives guests who do not eat pork or beef a meat option, cooked until it is hot all the way through.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, a hot, filling option of their own.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.

If you’re a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team.

A barbecue or other catering?

Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so some events have both. Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.

What you get with us

  • Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
  • Planned to your running order
  • Cooked on site by our chef
  • Our staff serve and clear

Read our prices page or menu ideas for your barbecue.

How the day works

We get there well ahead of food time, so the grill is hot by the time you want to eat. Your guests will smell it before they see it. Sunset in Woodrow is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.

  2. You get a suggested menu and a price.
  3. We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
  4. We serve as people come up.
  5. We tidy up before we go.
