Your questions about a catered barbecue in Framfield
Is Framfield too small for a barbecue?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you do a barbecue in Hempstead Meadow?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Should we have every meat?
Not usually. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket and we’ll advise on the rest.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
We cook under cover, so the season does not stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
How do you handle food safety?
That’s one of the best reasons to have it catered: separate equipment for raw and cooked food, and everything cooked through.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Tell us your numbers and we’ll suggest a split.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
What do you need from the venue?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Tell us what’s available on site and we’ll confirm the rest when we quote.
