BBQ Catering

We are proud of the barbecues we offers for parties, weddings and other events across Sussex. We bring authentic 6 ft barbecues with us when we come to cook for you- we believe that if the food hasn’t been cooked over charcoal or wood, it’s not a real barbecue. There’s something that appeals to people about the smell and sight of a smoking barbecue set up in the garden whilst they’re enjoying a glass of champage and a few canapés before the main event.

Barbecue catering is becoming an increasingly popular way of feeding friends at all types of events. Traditionally quite an informal affair, barbecues are well suited to relaxed garden parties celebrating birthdays and bank holidays, but they also work very well at weddings and other more grand events. The style of service can be adapted to what suits you and your party best. A buffet table looks quite magnificent loaded with plates of temptingly charred burgers (which we make ourselves using prime beef mince from our local butcher), local Harvey’s sausages, carved joints of beef and legs of lamb, fabulous vegetarian options, bowls of colourful salads and baskets of beautiful loaves. If you’d prefer that your guests didn’t have to queue, we can serve these beautiful platters to the guests’ tables instead. The food becomes the centre piece of the table as well as the conversations.

Cooking from scratch with the very best produce available is something we live by, and this mantra seems especially important when barbecuing, when meat and fish is so central to the menu. Welfare, flavour, provinence and sustainability are all things that we take very seriously, and we keep all of these things in mind when sourcing our ingredients. We work with you to create a menu that can include not just sausages and burgers, but whole joints of marinated meat, yoghurt and garlic coated chicken kebabs, lemony seafood and fish skewers as well as interesting vegetarian options. The side dishes are never an after thought. We grow a lot of vegetables in our kitchen garden, and we love coming up with delicious salads to use them in; roasted beetroot with middle eastern spiced dressing, squash roasted with harissa and soft green herbs, potato and quails eggs with homemade tarragon and spring onion mayonnaise, grated carrots with parsley, lemon and nigella seeds and so many more.

We truly believe that a barbecue, done right, can be just as splendid as any more formal three course meal.

Shaun and I wanted to thank you for all your help, delicious food, fabulous service and overall fabulousness. You made both feel extremely special on our best ever day.
Thank you again to everyone on your team.

Shaun and Remy, October 2018

We just wanted to send you a quick note (inbetween wedding 1 and 2 !) just to say that the food was absolutely excellent yesterday. Everyone commented on how nice it was. Bringing round seconds of beef was a winner and the desserts were truly delicious.

You have both been so lovely and helpful and I know that Phill at the Angel House was also really impressed with your professionalism.

The service was also really good and the staff you employed were all really nice.

Amanda and Kevin, Angel House

We wanted to say a massive thank you for all that you have done for us. You have truly been amazing and we can’t thank you enough for providing such a beautiful wedding buffet and making it all gluten and dairy free. It really meant a lot to us and our guests that so much effort was made and we have had the most glowing feedback from the guests about the quality of the food you made. We would also like to thank you staff, who were fantastic. We truly had an amazing wedding day and couldn’t have wished it to be any different.

Alexandria and Iain

THANK YOU SO MUCH for making our weddings so incredible. Your help, support and reassurance was invaluable in the run up to the day, and the food you created for the wedding itself was truly scrumptious. Everyone has commented on it, including my best friend who also happens to be the editor of Guardian Cook so knows her stuff. Thank you all, once again and I wish you huge success with the future of your business, you really deserve it.

Nicole and Lewis

Firstly, a massive thanks to you, Charlie and your amazing team for your exceptional catering, service and organisation for our silver wedding party. Everything went brilliantly and many people said it was the best party they had ever been to which is quite a compliment. We loved every second though I'm not sure my feet will ever recover! I'm so glad the staff had a good experience too, we are very proud of our friends who are all super people.

A million thanks for everything and very best wishes.
