A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with a sit-down meal, a barbecue keeps things informal, and needs no kitchen at the venue. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why us?
- Cooked on site by our chef
- Six meats to choose from
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Barbecue and hog roast together for big events

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Will you clear up afterwards?
Yes, we clear up after service, so there is very little washing up. Ask if you’d like china.
Do you cook the barbecue 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.
How many meats should we choose?
Not generally. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket and we’ll advise on the rest.
Will guests know what’s in each dish?
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve, and we will label the meat-free choices clearly.
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.
Step by step
