For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
About our BBQ catering in Stalisfield
Barbecue food is at its best straight from the grill, so we cook and serve through the agreed service time. Tell us when you’d like to eat and we’ll plan around it. Typical bookings include engagement and anniversary parties and summer parties in the garden, serving sausages, beef burgers and chicken skewers.
Country barbecues near Stalisfield are hard to beat on a summer evening. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather, and think about lighting if it runs late. Everything is cooked through properly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.
Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue if a few things are right. A quick checklist:
- Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
