How it works
A barbecue is cooked as people eat, so we time our arrival around your serving time. It means food comes off the grill hot. Autumn and winter barbecues in Chilson get dark early: about 7:10pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. For a late-season barbecue, lunchtime is easiest.
- First, you send us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the barbecue and send a clear quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- We cook and serve when you’re ready to eat.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about where the smoke will drift
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Think about lights for the serving area after dark

Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in

- Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
