Who serves?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Working with your venue
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
The process
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Daytime open days in Shootash are rarely affected by light, but in December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so late events need lighting.
- Tell us where, when, how many and the serving time.
- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- Afterwards we clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Let us know about tight access
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
