- Plan separately for halal if needed

We pack away straight after service.

Step by step
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your crew will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. By late September, sunset near Coleman's Hatch is about 7:05pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- We check access to base and quote.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
How to prepare
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Think about shelter for your crew
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
