Planning an event in Brook?
The process
On the day, we set up the barbecue on the agreed spot, put the cover up and get it hot. From there, we cook as your guests come up, timed to when you want to eat. In Brook, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so an early-evening barbecue is usually in daylight.
- Tell us what kind of event it is.
- You get a suggested menu and a price.
- We set up the grill before food time.
- We serve as people come up.
- We tidy up before we go.
How to prepare
- Keep the grill downwind of the seating
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Let us know about children’s numbers

A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, which helps when some guests do not eat pork. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so for bigger events, why not both?. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why us?
- Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Our chef at the grill, not you
- Planned to your running order

Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
On the day, we arrive in good time to set up, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
Pulled pork and brisket make the menu feel more substantial.
