For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue if a few things are right. A quick checklist:
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- Parking near the grill
- A green light from whoever owns the site
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:

We bring everything we need to cook and serve, so there is no need to borrow a grill.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
