A barbecue near Chartridge
How the day works
We set up where we agreed and keep out of the way, so your event carries on around us. Smoke drifts, so we will think about the wind with you. Sunset in Chartridge is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.
- First, you send us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Before we arrive
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Tell us roughly how many children are coming

How we price a catered barbecue
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Access to the cooking area
- Season and day of the week
- Whether you want china
- How many people are eating
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Details that help
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Any venue rules
- Roughly how many people
- Your date and serving time
- The address or postcode
Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Fill in our quote form.
What comes off the grill
Sausages
Barbecued sausages are always popular, in a roll or on a plate.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and jacket potatoes turn a barbecue into a full meal.

Why choose BBQ catering in Chartridge?
Next to 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?. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
Why us?
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Our staff serve and clear
- Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
- Cooked on site by our chef

Allergies and dietary needs
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef when choosing the meats
If timings change, tell your contact as early as you can, and we will adjust where we can.
