How we price a catered barbecue
We work out each quote from:
- Plates or china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The date and time of year
- The journey to 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.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Roughly how many people
- Where the event is
- Anything the venue has asked for
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.
Where the barbecue can go in Sidlesham Common
The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what we look for:
- Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- Parking near the grill
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

How it works
Barbecue food is best straight off the grill, so we cook to order through service. Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the start, which keeps the queue moving. At midsummer, it is light in Sidlesham Common until about 9:20pm, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:05pm.

Sidlesham Common questions
What’s the nearest station to Sidlesham Common?
The closest is Chichester station, roughly 2.6 miles away.
Do you come out to small places like Sidlesham Common?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is the meat halal?
We don’t offer halal. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.
How do you handle food safety?
Cooking properly is our job: separate equipment for raw and cooked food, and everything cooked through.
What does the venue need to provide?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Let us know about the site and we will confirm what we need.
What do children typically eat?
Generally, yes: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Give us a rough number of children.
Will guests know what’s in each dish?
You will get allergen information for everything we serve, and we will label the meat-free choices clearly.
Do you cater for vegetarians?
Yes: halloumi and vegetable skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage for vegans. Let us know how many to expect.
A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with a sit-down meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and it doesn’t need a kitchen. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book with us
- Cooked on site by our chef
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
