A barbecue near High Hurstwood
How it works
Grilled food is at its best when it is hot, so we cook to order through service. Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the start, which keeps the queue moving. In High Hurstwood, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:15pm, so an early-evening barbecue is usually in daylight.

What comes off the grill
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Pulled pork
Pulled pork is slow-cooked until it falls apart, and served in a soft roll, often with coleslaw.
What the cooking area needs
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- Parking near the grill
- A wet-weather plan for your guests
- Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows

What BBQ catering costs
We do not use a fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:
- The date and time of year
- Access to the cooking area
- How many people are eating
- Crockery choices
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

- Dietary requirements
- Your date and serving time

- The address or postcode

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with a barbecue cooked by friends, a catered barbecue means everyone gets to be a guest, and food safety is in professional hands. The menu makes a big difference to the price: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
