- Access to the cooking area
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

- Rough numbers
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Your date and serving time
- Rules from the venue or landowner
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Send us your details through our quote form.

Why book our barbecue in Ashmansworth

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the rest of the space to you.
For a more filling menu, add pulled pork or brisket.
What comes off the grill
Beef brisket
Beef brisket is slow-cooked and sliced, for a more substantial plate.
Pulled pork
Pulled pork is slow-cooked until it falls apart, piled into rolls, frequently with coleslaw.
For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
