What happens on the day
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. It means food comes off the grill hot. Evening barbecues in Little Conghurst need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:15pm in June but only about 7:00pm in late September. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.

- We suggest a menu and send a quote.
- We set up the grill before food time.
- We serve as people come up.
- We tidy up before we go.
