A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with 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 for bigger events, why not both?. The menu makes a big difference to the price: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

A closer look at the menu
Pulled pork
Because it’s slow-cooked, pulled pork is ready as soon as we start serving, so nobody waits for the grill.
Sausages
Cooked through and browned on the grill, sausages are simple and satisfying.
Step by step
We get there well ahead of food time, so the grill is hot by the time you want to eat. The smell soon brings people over. In Piddington, late May sunsets come at about 9:00pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.
- Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
- We check the cooking spot and quote.
- We set up under cover before service.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the grill downwind of the seating
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Arrange lighting for a late barbecue
