The process
We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then it’s a case of cooking and serving for as long as we’ve agreed. At midsummer, it is light in Sutton Courtenay until about 9:25pm, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. In late September, it is dark by about 7:10pm.
- Send a photo of where the barbecue could go.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- We grill outdoors at your event.
- We serve as your guests come up.
- We leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us roughly how many children are coming

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with hiring a venue’s in-house menu, a catered barbecue lets you choose exactly what’s served. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What you get with us
- Timed around your day
- Meat-free choices on every menu
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Serving and clearing done for you
