How we price a catered barbecue
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Numbers
- Crockery choices
- Site access
- The journey to the venue
What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
What to tell us
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rough numbers
Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your event for a quote: use our quote form.
BBQ catering in Allbrook, served hot

In a place like Allbrook, a barbecue at home is normally the easiest option. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.
Planning the cooking spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- Space for our vehicle nearby
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

The process
A barbecue is cooked as people eat, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. It means food comes off the grill hot. A summer barbecue in Allbrook stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. In late September, it’s dark by about 7:10pm.
