How it works
Here’s how the day usually runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and winter daylight in Crowhurst ends around 3:55pm, so we may set up under lights.
- Tell us the base location.
- We agree our position with locations.
- We roast under cover at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We leave base tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Think about shelter for your crew
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
