Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with food vans, a single barbecue feeds your group together, with a menu planned around your guests. 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.

What the cooking area needs
