What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- The manager’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A level spot in the garden or car park
- Clear of ambulance and delivery access
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
