We serve beef brisket, chicken skewers and halloumi skewers, and we are frequently booked for family celebrations and relaxed weddings and evening receptions.

Step by step
We set up where we agreed and keep out of the way, so your event carries on around us. We’ll place the grill so smoke drifts away from guests. In Ash Green, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the barbecue and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive in good time, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Keep the grill downwind of the seating
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Is a barbecue right for your event?
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so some events have both. Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.
