What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. On a winter shoot near Bulphan, the light goes by about 3:50pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- We check access to base and quote.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- We pack away straight after service.
How to prepare
- Think about shelter for your crew
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Send final numbers in good time
