Planning a barbecue

About our BBQ catering in East Claydon

From a small family gathering to a big club day, a barbecue can be planned around the size of your event. Give us an idea of numbers and we will suggest a menu. On the menu are sausages, beef brisket and halloumi skewers, and we are frequently booked for leaving and retirement parties and charity fundraisers.

East Claydon questions

Is East Claydon close to London?

Roughly 46 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you come out to small places like East Claydon?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?

We give you allergen information for every dish, and we’ll label the meat-free choices clearly.

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.

How much choice do we need?

You don’t need everything. Pick a mix of grilled and slow-cooked meats.

How do you handle food safety?

Meat is cooked until it is steaming hot all the way through, with no pink and juices running clear, in line with Food Standards Agency guidance.

Do you need anything from us?

The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Let us know about the site and we’ll confirm what we need.

When should we book BBQ catering?

Once your date is fixed, especially for June to September. Short notice is still worth a try: send us your details through our quote form.

The process

Before service, we set up the grill and the serving table on the agreed spot. Then it is a case of cooking and serving for as long as we’ve agreed. For an evening barbecue in East Claydon, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:05pm. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.

  1. Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
  2. We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
  3. We set up under cover before service.
  4. Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
  5. We clear the serving area and go.

Before we arrive

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Let us know about children’s numbers
  • Think about where the smoke will drift

What BBQ catering costs

A few things make the biggest difference to the price:

  • Travel to East Claydon
  • The date and time of year
  • Whether you want china
  • How many people are eating

When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

Good details mean a good quote. Please include:

  • Allergies we should know about
  • The date and time of the event
  • Rough numbers
  • Rules from the venue or landowner

Planning the cooking spot

Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue if a few things are right. Check these:

  • A spot well clear of buildings
  • Somewhere for us to park close to the cooking spot
  • Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Think about who does not eat pork or beef when choosing the meats
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Ask about allergies when guests reply
  • Mention any guests who avoid beef

The barbecue goes where we agreed, so the event carries on around us.

Ask about china for a sit-down meal, at extra cost.
