Step by step

We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then it is a case of cooking and serving for as long as we’ve agreed. Autumn and winter barbecues in Chackmore get dark early: about 7:10pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.

  1. First, you send us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check availability and the space for the barbecue and send a clear quote.
  3. We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
  4. At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
  5. We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.

Preparing for the day

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Getting a price

We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your event for a quote: use our quote form.

FAQs for Chackmore

Could you cook in Stowe Park and Garden?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.

Is Chackmore close to London?

About 53 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?

We do. There is a halloumi option and a vegan option, cooked separately from the meat.

When should we book?

As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we’ll check.

Is clearing up included?

Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.

What meats do you barbecue?

Six meats, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Most events pick three or four.

Can you cater in Chackmore?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Chackmore and Buckinghamshire. Tell us the venue and we will quote.

Do we have to eat from rolls?

Yes. Plates come as standard, with sides such as salads and potatoes, and china is available on request.

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
  • Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
  • Tell us about children’s numbers
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food

The barbecue goes where we agreed, leaving the rest of the space to you.

Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.

Working with your venue

For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:

  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Distance from us
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • How many people are eating

What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • The date and time of the event
  • Where the event is
  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • Roughly how many people

Send us the date, the address or MK18 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.

Space, access and the venue

Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:

  • Room for a serving table next to the grill
  • A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
  • Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Why choose BBQ catering in Chackmore?

Compared with hiring a venue’s in-house menu, a catered barbecue lets you choose exactly what’s served, and eat outdoors. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

Why us?

  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • Hot food straight off the grill
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
