Organising for someone else?

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
How the day works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. In summer, West Wittering has daylight until about 9:20pm, which makes garden events easy. In December, with dark by about 4:00pm, lunchtime is best.
- We start with the date and numbers.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- We roast through the morning.
- We carve and serve where you choose.
- We clear away quietly.
How to prepare
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
