Working with your venue
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you are a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team.
Prices and what affects them
Each price is built from:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Whether you want china
- Numbers
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote. Tell us the exact address for an accurate figure.
Getting an accurate quote
To get the best quote, tell us:
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Where the event is
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the moment service begins, so nobody waits for the first burgers.
Ask about china for a sit-down meal, at extra cost.
What we serve, dish by dish
Beef brisket
Slow-cooked beef brisket, sliced to serve, for a more substantial plate.

Chilton: your questions answered
Is Chilton too small for a barbecue?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Chilton from London?
About 44 miles from central London.
What does the venue need to provide?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Let us know about the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
Do you offer halal meat?
We do not. If guests need halal, arrange that separately.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.
Will children like the BBQ?
Normally, yes: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Tell us how many children to expect.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Ask and we will quote for the mix.
Is the food cooked safely?
That’s one of the best reasons to have it catered: separate equipment for raw and cooked food, and everything cooked through.
Where the barbecue can go in Chilton
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- The venue’s agreement for an outside caterer
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
