Running late? Tell us as early as you can, and we will work around it. Barbecue food is cooked through service, so it’s flexible. In Old Shoreham, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so an early-evening barbecue is normally in daylight.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
