What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and in December Addington is dark by about 3:55pm.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
