Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Next to a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so for bigger events, why not both?. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

The process
Running late? Tell us as early as you can, and we’ll adjust where we can. Barbecue food is cooked through service, so it is flexible. At midsummer, it is light in North Fareham until about 9:20pm, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:10pm.

Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
We bring everything we need to cook and serve, so there’s no need to borrow a grill.
For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.
FAQs for North Fareham
Do you come out to small places like North Fareham?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to North Fareham?
The closest is Fareham station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
How much choice do we need?
Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. A shorter menu also speeds up service.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
We cook under cover, so the season does not stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
Will guests know what’s in each dish?
Yes, ask us to label the food. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Do you offer halal meat?
We don’t. If guests need halal, arrange that separately; our vegetarian and vegan options are available.
Is clearing up included?
We tidy the serving area, so there is very little washing up. Ask if you’d like china.
Can you barbecue in bad weather?
We bring cover for the grill, so it is guests who need a wet-weather plan.

How we price a catered barbecue
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Site access
- The number of people
- Crockery choices
- Distance from us
What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Getting an accurate quote
Here’s what we will ask:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the event is
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rough numbers
Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: send us your details through our quote form.
Space, access and the venue

- Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
- Parking near the grill
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
