Private BBQ Chef in the Algarve
Live-fire cooking at the villa, garden or terrace where everyone is already staying.
Live fire · Algarve
A Basil private BBQ keeps the gathering at the property while we take care of the food.
We plan the menu beforehand, prepare for the group and cook over live fire at the villa or home where the event is happening.
We travel to you across the Algarve — by appointment via WhatsApp, email or the website enquiry form.
Live fire
Cooked over coals, on your grill or ours as needed.
From the market
Fish, vegetables and meat bought the same morning.
Served in courses
Straight off the fire, at the pace of the table.
A private BBQ at your villa
For groups staying together in the Algarve, a private BBQ lets the evening stay around the garden, terrace or pool instead of moving everyone to a restaurant.
Basil comes to the property and takes responsibility for the food so the group can stay around the table.
Cooking over live fire
The focus is the fire. Food is cooked over coals and served directly from the grill.
Depending on the agreed service, the food can be served together or progressively around the table.
We can work with the grill available at the property or use our own where needed.
Planned around your group
The menu is discussed before the event and planned around the guest number, preferences, dietary requirements and occasion rather than a fixed BBQ package.
Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free requirements can be discussed before the event, together with allergies and other specific needs.
Private BBQs across the Algarve
Basil provides private BBQ services across the Algarve, including Quinta do Lago, Vale do Lobo, Lagos, Praia da Luz, Albufeira, Loulé and Carvoeiro.
If you are staying elsewhere in the region, send us the property location when you enquire.
