How the day works
Grilled food is at its best when it is hot, so we cook to order through service. Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the start, which keeps the queue moving. Sunset in Denvilles is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so an early-evening barbecue is generally in daylight.
- Send us the date, the place and roughly how many.
- Pick the menu with us.
- We confirm the cooking spot and send a quote.
- We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack away and leave the area tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
