How it works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. In December, it’s dark in St Denys by about 4:00pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We start in daylight and cook into the dark.

- We check the venue and send a price.
- We set up under cover in daylight and roast through the afternoon.
