Your questions about a catered barbecue in Yopps Green
Can you do a barbecue in Ivy Hatch Nature Reserve?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How far is Yopps Green from London?
Roughly 23 miles from the centre of London.
What do you need from the venue?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Tell us what’s available on site and we’ll confirm the rest when we quote.
What meats do you barbecue?
Beef burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
Summer is the busiest time, but we cook all year, with cover over the grill. Plan shelter for your guests.
Is there anything for vegans?
Yes: halloumi and vegetable skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage for vegans. Let us know how many to expect.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the moment service begins, so nobody waits for the first burgers.
Ask about china for a sit-down meal, quoted separately.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
