What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- A level lawn, patio or hard standing
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Is a barbecue right for your event?
Compared with a cold buffet, everything is hot and freshly cooked, and nothing sits out all afternoon. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
