A catered BBQ in Worth: what to know
Worth is about 2 miles east of Crawley, in West Sussex. We cover Worth and its neighbours for events. Worth is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Worth to Brighton (19 miles away).
Summer fairs and sports days, for a school such as Maidenbower Junior School, often want a barbecue. Within reach of Worth are historic houses such as Gravetye Manor (4.2 miles south-east) and Priest House (4.7 miles south-east). Estates like these tend to set strict rules for caterers, so check before you book. The High Weald National Landscape is within about 8 miles of Worth. Some venues in protected landscapes have rules about open cooking and vehicles, so check with yours.
Anywhere in RH10, we can cook on site for your guests. From Worth Road, Banks Road and Saxon Road or a nearby road, we’ll bring the barbecue to you. We also bring barbecues to events in Pound Hill (1 mile north), Maidenbower (1 mile south), Three Bridges (1 mile north-west), Tilgate (1 mile south-west) and Forge Wood (2 miles north). We also serve nearby towns such as Horsham (8 miles south-west), Haywards Heath (8 miles south), Burgess Hill (11 miles south), East Grinstead (6 miles east), Broadfield (3 miles south-west) and Billingshurst (15 miles south-west).
Other landmarks nearby include Crawley Hospital (2.2 miles west) and County Mall (1.6 miles west). Green spaces nearby include Tilgate Lake.
- Nearby schools include Oriel High School (0.7 miles south-west)
- Nearby, you will find Dem Shish pub (less than half a mile north-west)
BBQ catering for your event in Worth
For bigger events in Worth, a barbecue can sit alongside a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. We can quote for either or both. We serve pulled pork, sausages and coleslaw, and typical bookings are for summer staff days and big birthday parties.
Barbecues around Worth are frequently relaxed garden affairs. It suits that kind of day, with nobody you know stuck at the grill. All the barbecue, none of the effort: we shop, cook, serve and clear.

Worth questions
How far is Worth from London?
Roughly 27 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do a barbecue in Worth Park Gardens?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can it be a sit-down meal?
Yes. With salads and potatoes, it is a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
Do you label the food for allergies?
We can label dishes at the serving table. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, at your event, on a spot we agree with you. We need a level, open area outdoors with room for the grill and a serving table.
How far ahead should we book a barbecue?
Once your date is fixed, especially for June to September. But ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
Six meats, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Most events pick three or four.
Why choose BBQ catering in Worth?
Compared with a sit-down meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and it doesn’t need a kitchen. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Why us?
- Add a hog roast alongside
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Planned to your running order
- Our staff serve and clear

The process
Running late? Tell us as early as you can, and we’ll work around it. Barbecue food is cooked through service, so it’s flexible. At midsummer, it is light in Worth until about 9:20pm, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. In late September, it’s dark by about 7:05pm.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the cooking spot and quote.
- We set up under cover before service.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Let us know about children’s numbers
- Plan lighting if the barbecue runs into the evening

What the cooking area needs
Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue with a little planning. Check these:
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- Room for a serving table next to the grill
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
