How it works
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Late-September shoots near Bromley Common lose the light at about 7:05pm, so plan lights for evening service.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- You get a check on access and a quote.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
