About our BBQ catering in Jarvis Brook
Food from a barbecue is best eaten hot off the grill, which is why we cook and serve as your guests come up. Give us your serving time and we’ll work to it. Whether it is community fun days and reunions and family get-togethers, we can cook beef burgers, coleslaw and beef brisket for your guests.
In a small place like Jarvis Brook, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will handle the rest. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish before you book.
