How our BBQ catering works in World's End
Some hosts in World's End pair a barbecue with a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. We can quote for either or both. On the menu are sausages, BBQ ribs and beef brisket, and we’re regularly asked to cater back-garden get-togethers and fundraising days.
Around World's End, a garden with room to spare is all you need. It suits that kind of day, with nobody you know stuck at the grill. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls.

Organising for someone else?
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Think about who does not eat pork or beef when choosing the meats
When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, so there is very little left for you to do.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
Step by step
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we time our arrival around your serving time. It means food comes off the grill hot. Autumn and winter barbecues in World's End get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. For a late-season barbecue, lunchtime is easiest.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
- We arrive in good time and get the barbecue hot.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Think about lights for the serving area after dark
- Let us know about children’s numbers

A catered barbecue compared with other options
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, which helps when some guests don’t eat pork. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so for bigger events, why not both?. Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.
