How we price a catered barbecue

The price comes down to:

  • The number of people
  • Season and day of the week
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • The journey to the venue

What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

Details that help

Here’s what we will ask:

  • Dietary requirements
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • An estimate of numbers
  • Rules from the venue or landowner

For a quote, send us a few details: the date and serving time, the venue or OX10 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Send us your details through our quote form.

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Mongewell

Do you come out to small places like Mongewell?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Could you cook in Kinecroft?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.

Will guests know what’s in each dish?

We can label dishes at the serving table. Tell us about allergies in advance.

Is the barbecue cooked on site?

Yes, at your event, on a spot we agree with you. We need a level, open area outdoors with room for the grill and a serving table.

Do you clear up?

We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.

Can you do a hog roast as well?

We can. A hog roast gives you a centrepiece and the barbecue adds variety.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.

Do you cover Mongewell?

Yes, Mongewell is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.

What the cooking area needs

Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:

  • Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
  • Room for a serving table next to the grill
  • Space for our vehicle nearby

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

For event organisers in Mongewell

If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.

For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

How the day works

The barbecue goes on the agreed spot, so your event carries on around us. Smoke drifts, so we will think about the wind with you. At midsummer, it’s light in Mongewell until about 9:25pm, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:10pm.

  1. Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
  2. We check the cooking spot and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time and get the barbecue hot.
  4. At food time, we cook and serve.
  5. We clear the serving area and go.

How to prepare

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Include children in your numbers
  • Plan lighting if the barbecue runs into the evening

How to get a price

Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.

Planning help

Looking after everyone

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Tell us if anyone doesn’t eat beef

On the day, we arrive in good time to set up, so the grill is up to heat when you are ready to eat.

Sides turn a barbecue into a proper meal.

Is a barbecue right for your event?

Compared with a DIY barbecue, nobody you know spends the event at the grill, and the cooking is in experienced hands. Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote. Give us the address for an accurate figure.

Why us?

  • Planned to your running order
  • Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
