How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. In summer, Hatch Warren has daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden events easy. In winter, dark by about 4:00pm, a lunchtime event is better.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- Photos of the grounds help us choose a safe spot.
- The kitchen shares residents’ dietary needs with us.
- On the day the hog roasts outside while residents watch from the lounge or garden.
- After serving, we clear away without disturbing the home.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
