Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Tell us if anyone doesn’t eat beef
Slow-cooked meats such as pulled pork and brisket are ready to serve from the start, which takes the pressure off the grill.

The process
If timings shift on the day, let your contact know, and we’ll work around it. Barbecue food is cooked through service, so it is flexible. In Cookham, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so an early-evening barbecue is normally in daylight.
- First, you send us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- On the day we arrive in good time, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Give us a contact number for the day

Every event is quoted on its own, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Tell us about your event for a quote: use our quote form.
