We are Oak & Sage, a family owned live fire catering company based in Cheshire. Our aim is to provide restaurant quality food while exposing your guests to the theatre of open fire cooking, be it spit roasted porchetta, a hanging rib of beef or a slow cooked whole lamb. All of our produce is locally sourced, prepared in house and cooked entirely over open fire allowing you to enjoy food the way it was meant to be; fresh, honest and rustic.
Our typical service runs as sharing boards where a selection of meats is passed around the table creating a casual family style atmosphere. We do also offer a plated service for a more traditional setting along with canapes, starters, desserts & evening options.

Experience
What is open fire cooking?
While we like to avoid the word bbq its probably the closest resembalence to our style, but we're not cooking sausages & burgers here. Taking inspiration from asado style argentinian, we slow cook large cuts of meat over wood & charcoal - think whole lambs, whole rib roasts & pork bellys.
How flexible are you menus?
We are increadibly accommodating in the food we produce. We work with you to create the exact menu you are looking for, on or off the fire. Some past requests include curry, sushi, sticky toffee pudding.
We also operate private chef services outside of wedding season so we are confident any special requests can exceed expectations!
What numbers can you cater for?
Were yet to reach our limit! The great thing about cooking over fire is you can just add more fires & an extra chef. We typically say between 50-200 is ideal although any number is possible.
Where do you source your meat?
Our meat comes from local farm & butchers 'dunwood farm' where cattle is raised on site & the best quality you can find.
What facilities do you require?
While everything is cooked over fire, we do require a catering tent or kitchen for plating purposes. Other than that we just need access to water & a few 3 pin plug sockets
What do you do in bad weather?
We always bring our own gazeebo to cover the fires should it be required so rain is not an issue. The only problem we could have is high winds although we will work with you to find a solution - we have never canceled a booking due to weather.
