How it works
On the day, we position the grill under cover and get it up to heat. From there, we cook as your guests come up, worked around your serving time. In Gawcott, late May sunsets come at about 9:00pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so an early-evening barbecue is usually in daylight.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and get the grill hot.

A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, which helps when some guests do not eat pork. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so some events have both. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
