How the day works
Barbecue food is best straight off the grill, so we cook and serve through the agreed time. Slow-cooked meats are ready as soon as service begins, which keeps the queue moving. Evening barbecues in Clatterford need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:10pm. Plan lights for the serving area after that.
- Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
- We check the cooking spot and quote.
- We arrive in good time and get the barbecue hot.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose the menu a week or so before
- Think about lights for the serving area after dark
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

How we price a catered barbecue
We work out each quote from:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Numbers
- The date and time of year
- The journey to the venue
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Getting an accurate quote
These are the details we need:
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Allergies we should know about
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: use our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask which items contain gluten
We cook as your guests come up, and our staff serve and keep the queue moving.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.

For event organisers in Clatterford

Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
- Space for our vehicle nearby
- A green light from whoever owns the site
For somewhere as remote as Clatterford, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
