  • Stuffing typically contains gluten

How it works

On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. At midsummer, daylight in Elsted Marsh lasts until about 9:20pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.

  1. We start with the location, call times and numbers.
  2. We check the route and send a price.
  3. Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
  4. We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
  5. Afterwards we clear our spot at base.

How to prepare

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
