What else we do in Newbury's
The process
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. For a summer hog roast day in Newbury's, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:15pm, which makes garden events easy. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime event is better.
- We plan with your manager and kitchen.
- You get a clear price.
- We set up outdoors, clear of access routes.
- We carve thinly and serve on plates.
- We tidy up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
