Booked for Celebration

I booked Chef Artan for my parents and four of their friends as a surprise after a difficult few months of lockdown. I found Chef Artan very easy to communicate with when it came to organizing the event. He was extremely helpful and accommodating and quick to reply to any of my questions. My parents and their friends were delighted with their evening. They said the food was wonderful and there was lots of it so they get to enjoy leftovers too. The star of the show was the steak cooked to order and everyone’s preference was served to perfection. They also said Chef Artan is a wonderful host! This is a great way to do something special during covid times when everyone needs a pick me up. We will definitely book Chef Artan again, we just wish we’d thought to do this sooner!

Booked for Birthday party

Worth every penny and more! Simply amazing As the host of the party I wanted to hire caterers to take the pressure off. I've never done this before and initially it felt like a gamble. BSK's communication was fantastic which completely put my mind at ease. We discussed the party set-up and menu requirements to a point where I felt that I could trust them completely. The menu was flexible and catered for everyone, I have to say the Vegan burgers were incredible. They provided large portions of food using high quality of ingredients. All food was served in takeaway boxes with cutlery which meant that tidying up was a breeze. On the morning of the party Les and Alex turned up early to set-up and were an incredible team. They were so respectful of the environment that they were working in. All of our guests commented on how lovely the guys were, service with a smile every time! We received so many comments on how good the food was and what a great idea it was to get caterers in for the party. They were a huge success. There was no way we would have been able to create a feast anywhere as good as the food they produced. We had guests of all ages and they all raved about the quality of the food. I would not hesitate to recommend BSK and will certainly be reaching out to them again in the future. Thank you so much guys - simply amazing Sarah

Booked for Wedding

We are super happy we chose Debbie and her sister at Spice It Up Bar B Q! These two ladies know how to cook and we had nothing but positive feedback from their selection of Caribbean grub. Debbie was easily contactable with the lead up to our wedding, she also was flexible when we asked to swap a couple of things from the menu she proposed. We were keen to have Caribbean food for the hearty home cooking. Half of the family are Jamaican and it felt the perfect cuisine for us as we officially got married in Aruba, one of the Caribbean islands. There was plenty of food, and the ladies didn't let any go to waste, allowing guests to take it home. The finishing touches these two brought was even more than we hoped, extremely friendly and welcoming to the mile long queue of guests they had to serve. If anyone wants a wedding meal with a twist, and plenty of food to go around to all of your guests, we'd recommend Spice it up Bar B Q.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.

About supplier

Barbecuing has always been a big part of my life whilst I was growing up and then in early 2020 I needed a hobby to keep myself sane (like many of us), so I purchased my first smoker. Since then I have gone on to do takeaway nights in my local village, corporate events & pop-ups at local brewery's.

How many BBQ chefs will come to cook at my party?
Two to three caterers are usually available. However, the number of BBQ chefs available depends on the kind of event and the number of guests.
What is the space requirement?
The required space is either 3 meters by 3 meters or 6 meters by 3 meters if your supplier brings a van. The number of anticipated guests is another consideration that goes into determining the space requirement.
