Step by step
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. On a winter shoot near Hinksey Hill, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- The roast starts early.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We clear our spot.
Getting ready for the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
