BBQ catering in Frant
How it works
One of us cooks, the others serve, so service stays steady. After service, we clear up and pack away. Autumn and winter barbecues in Frant get dark early: about 7:00pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the barbecue and send a clear quote.
- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and get the grill hot.
- We cook and serve when you are ready to eat.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Keep the grill downwind of the seating

Is a barbecue right for your event?
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, which helps when some guests do not eat pork. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so for bigger events, why not both?. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What you get with us
- Pair it with a hog roast if you like
- Planned to your running order
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option
- No surprises: everything in writing

FAQs for Frant
Is Frant too small for a barbecue?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Could you cook in Eridge Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is clearing up included?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
Is barbecued chicken safe?
That’s one of the best reasons to have it catered: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
Do you need anything from us?
Mostly space and access: a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings, with cover over the grill. We’ll check anything else with you.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.
How much choice do we need?
Not generally. Pick a mix of grilled and slow-cooked meats.
Organising for someone else?
Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
