What else we do in Holbrook
How it works
On the day, we set up the barbecue on the agreed spot, put the cover up and get it hot. Then our chef cooks through the service time, timed to when you want to eat. By late September, sunset in Holbrook is about 7:05pm; in December it’s about 3:55pm. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with a sit-down meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and needs no kitchen at the venue. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why us?
- Our chef at the grill, not you
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Our staff serve and clear

What the cooking area needs
A barbecue needs a level, open spot outdoors with cover. Here’s what helps:
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
About the food
BBQ ribs
Glazed ribs turn a barbecue into a proper spread, alongside the other meats.
Pulled pork
Pulled pork is ready to serve from the start of service, which keeps the queue moving.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- The number of people
- Access to the cooking area
- Whether you want china
- Travel to Holbrook
Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Allergies we should know about
- The date and time of the event
- Any venue rules
- The address or postcode
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: fill in our quote form.
Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
- Ask which items contain gluten
We bring everything we need to cook and serve, so there is no need to borrow a grill.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
Holbrook questions
Do you cater at venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is Holbrook too small for a barbecue?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you cook the barbecue on site?
Yes. Our chef cooks outdoors, under cover, at your event, with our staff serving and clearing.
Is clearing up included?
We tidy the serving area. China is available on request.
Can we have a barbecue in winter?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Burgers and sausages are typically the children’s favourites, and a vegan sausage covers anyone who does not eat meat. Tell us roughly how many are coming.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Most events pick three or four.
Is there anything for vegans?
Yes. Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, and vegans get a vegan burger or sausage.
