A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with a cold buffet, everything is hot and freshly cooked, and nothing sits out all afternoon. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why us?
- Pair it with a hog roast if you like
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Our chef at the grill, not you
Take a look at our prices page and menu ideas for your barbecue.
How it works
Running late? Tell us as early as you can, and we will adjust where we can. A barbecue is easy to time, as most of it is cooked as people eat. Autumn and winter barbecues in Hangleton get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. For a late-season barbecue, lunchtime is easiest.
- Send a photo of where the barbecue could go.
- We check it and send a price.
- We grill outdoors at your event.
- We serve as your guests come up.
- We leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Include children in your numbers
- Pick a spot where smoke blows away from guests
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Where the barbecue can go in Hangleton
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Room for a serving table next to the grill
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
