How it works
On the day, we position the grill under cover and get it up to heat. Then our chef cooks through the service time, worked around your serving time. Evening barbecues in Moor Street need a little planning: it is light until about 9:15pm in June but only about 7:00pm in late September. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the cooking spot and quote.
- We set up under cover before service.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Let us know about children’s numbers
How to get a price

BBQ catering for your event in Moor Street
A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. A catered barbecue takes all of that off your hands, so you can enjoy your own event. We serve pulled pork, chicken skewers and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for cricket, football and rugby club days and close and cul-de-sac parties.
In a small place like Moor Street, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Moor Street
Could you cook in Berengrave Chalk Pit?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Is Moor Street too small for a barbecue?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Let us know numbers for children.
Do you label the food for allergies?
You will get allergen information for everything we serve, and we can label the vegetarian and vegan options.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Tell us your numbers and we’ll suggest a split.
How far ahead should we book a barbecue?
Once your date is fixed, especially for June to September. But ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
What does the venue need to provide?
The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Let us know about the site and we will confirm what we need.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the moment service begins, which takes the pressure off the grill.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Next to doing the barbecue yourself, nobody you know spends the event at the grill, and the food is cooked properly by people who do it every week. What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.
Why Moor Street hosts choose us
- An itemised quote
- Served at the time you choose
- Six meats to choose from
- Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
Space, access and the venue
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
- Space for our vehicle nearby
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
