The process
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. By about 3:50pm in late December, Chilmington Green is dark. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station, and a lit path from the door.

Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.

A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
Can the food be served indoors?
Cooking is always outdoors; guests can eat inside.

Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Organising for someone else?
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
- Hardstanding if possible in winter
