The process
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we time our arrival around your serving time. It means food comes off the grill hot. Evening barbecues in Milton Heights need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:10pm. Plan lights for the serving area after that.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send 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 clear the serving area and pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

- Permission from the venue or landowner

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Milton Heights
What’s the nearest station to Milton Heights?
Didcot Parkway station, about 2.6 miles east of the centre.
Is Milton Heights too small for a barbecue?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Yes, on plates with salads, coleslaw and potatoes, and china is available on request.
Can you do halal?
No, we don’t offer halal meat. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.
What if it rains?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
We can. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.
Do you cover Milton Heights?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Milton Heights and the rest of Oxfordshire included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
What does the venue need to provide?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Let us know about the site and we will confirm what we need.
