About our BBQ catering in Long Hanborough
Food from a barbecue is best eaten hot off the grill, so we cook and serve through the agreed service time. Give us your serving time and we’ll plan around it. For family celebrations and garden parties, we will put together a menu of coleslaw, beef burgers and chicken skewers for your guests.
For a barbecue in Long Hanborough, the garden is often the best venue. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

What happens on the day
A barbecue is cooked as people eat, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. That keeps everything hot and fresh. Sunset in Long Hanborough is about 9:00pm in late May and 9:30pm in late June, so an early-evening barbecue is normally in daylight.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and get the grill hot.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Choose the menu a week or so before
