How it works
A barbecue is cooked as people eat, so we time our arrival around your serving time. That keeps everything hot and fresh. Sunset in Knox Bridge is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, so an early-evening barbecue is normally in daylight.
- Start with the occasion, the date and the venue.
- You get a suggested menu and a price.
- We set up the grill before food time.
- We serve as people come up.
- The serving area is cleared before we leave.
How to prepare
- Keep the grill downwind of the seating
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
How to get a price

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Knox Bridge
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is Knox Bridge close to London?
About 38 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?
We can label dishes at the serving table. Let us know about allergies before the day.
What if it rains?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Usually, yes: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Give us a rough number of children.
Do you cover Knox Bridge?
Yes, Knox Bridge is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.
Do you cater for vegetarians?
We do. Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, and vegans get a vegan burger or sausage, cooked separately from the meat.
What we serve, dish by dish
Pulled pork
Pulled pork is slow-cooked until it falls apart, and served in a soft roll.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
