A closer look at the menu
Beef brisket
Beef brisket is slow-cooked and sliced, for a more substantial plate.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, served in a roll with salads.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Ask about allergies when guests reply

Upperton: your questions answered
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
How far is Upperton from London?
Roughly 42 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do halal?
No, we don’t offer halal meat. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.
Can you barbecue in bad weather?
The cooking area is covered, but guests will want shelter too.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
What does the venue need to provide?
Space and a way in, mainly: somewhere level outside for the barbecue and the serving table. We’ll check anything else with you.
Should we have every meat?
Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. A shorter menu also speeds up service.
A catered barbecue compared with other options
Compared with a DIY barbecue, nobody you know spends the event at the grill, and the cooking is in experienced hands. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
