How we price a catered barbecue
The price comes down to:
- Distance from us
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Plates or china
- How many people are eating
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Getting an accurate quote
These are the details we need:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- An estimate of numbers
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The venue or postcode
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: use our quote form.
How it works
When we arrive, we position the grill under cover and get it up to heat. From there, we cook as your guests come up, worked around your serving time. By late September, sunset in Lower Horsebridge is about 7:00pm; in December it is about 3:55pm. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- On the day we arrive in good time, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
- We cook and serve when you’re ready to eat.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Tell us which meats you’d like in advance
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, which helps when some guests do not eat pork. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so for bigger events, why not both?. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Why us?
- A full barbecue menu
- Our chef at the grill, not you
- Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
- A clear quote with everything listed
Read our pricing or our barbecue menu ideas.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- A spot well clear of buildings
