How the day works
We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then it is a case of cooking and serving for as long as we have agreed. By late September, sunset in Earnley is about 7:05pm; in December it is about 4:00pm. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- 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.
How to prepare

- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
After service, our staff clear up, leaving the spot tidy.

The menu, dish by dish
Beef brisket
Sliced brisket adds a grown-up touch.
Sausages
Children typically head straight for the sausages, and they’re easy to eat standing up.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- Distance from us
- Site access
- Plates or china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

- An estimate of numbers
- Your date and serving time
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The address or postcode
