Is a barbecue right for your event?
Next to a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so some events have both. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why us?
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Served at the time you choose
- A full barbecue menu

Northease questions
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
How far is Northease from London?
Roughly 46 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Will guests know what’s in each dish?
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve, and we can label the vegetarian and vegan options.
Is the barbecue cooked on site?
Yes, on site at your venue in Northease. We need a level, open area outdoors with room for the grill and a serving table.
Should we have every meat?
Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. Fewer items keeps service quick.
Is the food cooked safely?
That is one of the best reasons to have it catered: separate equipment for raw and cooked food, and everything cooked through.
What do you need from the venue?
Space and a way in, mainly: a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings, with cover over the grill. We’ll check anything else with you.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
Six meats, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Most events pick three or four.
How the day works

- You get a suggested menu and a price.
- We set up the grill before food time.
- We serve as people come up.
- The serving area is cleared before we leave.
