The process
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. Late May in Barns Green has light until about 8:50pm, so residents and families can stay outside late.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- We look at photos of the garden or car park and suggest a cooking spot.
- Your kitchen team tells us about diets and textures.
- Residents can see and smell the roast from the morning.
- Lunch is carved and served, and we pack away quietly afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

- The number of people
- Site access
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Which meats and sides you choose
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

- Where the event is
- What the outdoor space is like
- Dietary requirements
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
