Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself

Compared with a DIY barbecue, no host is stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and the food is cooked properly by people who do it every week. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

Why book with us

  • Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more
  • Cooked on site by our chef
  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • Add a hog roast alongside

The process

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. For an evening barbecue in Crockham Heath, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:10pm. Plan lights for the serving area after that.

  1. Show us the space.
  2. We confirm it works and send a quote.
  3. We grill outdoors at your event.
  4. Our team serves hot food through the agreed time.
  5. We clear up so you don’t have to.

Before we arrive

  • Pick a spot where smoke blows away from guests
  • Let us know about tight access
  • Include children in your numbers

Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
  • Mention any guests who avoid beef
  • Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
  • Let us know roughly how many children are coming

We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, so the event carries on around us.

A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.

  • Grilled at your venue, outdoors and under cover
  • Six barbecue meats to choose from
  • Something for everyone, including vegetarians and vegans
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
