BBQ catering in Worplesdon, served hot
A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. With BBQ catering, all of that is done for you, so you can enjoy your own event. For retirement do’s and reunions and family get-togethers, we can cook sausages, chicken skewers and beef burgers and more.
In a small place like Worplesdon, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
On the day, we arrive in good time to set up, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
For a more filling menu, add pulled pork or brisket.
Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors are:
- The journey to the venue
- How many people are eating
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Whether you want china
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Details that help

- Dietary requirements

For event organisers in Worplesdon
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.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.

Summer fairs and sports days, for a school such as Worplesdon Primary School, frequently want a barbecue. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within about 8 miles of Worplesdon, so a countryside barbecue here comes with a view.

What we serve, dish by dish
Beef brisket
Beef brisket is slow-cooked and sliced, rich and tender.
Beef burgers
A burger is the barbecue classic, and they’re a safe bet for children and adults alike.
What the cooking area needs
The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what we look for:

A catered barbecue compared with other options
Instead of asking a friend to man the grill, a catered barbecue means everyone gets to be a guest, and the food is cooked by people who do it every week. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why Worplesdon hosts choose us
- Planned to your running order
- Pair it with a hog roast if you like
- A choice of salads and potatoes

The process
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. It means food comes off the grill hot. Autumn and winter barbecues in Worplesdon get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
