Planning the cooking spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- Somewhere for crew to eat if it rains
- Away from vehicles and equipment
- A level spot at base for the roaster
Anerley is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

How the day works
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and in December Anerley is dark by about 3:55pm, so we may set up under lights.

- We agree our position with locations.
- We cook at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We leave base tidy.
Preparing for the day

- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
