The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some crew will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Step by step
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. Because the roast starts early, and winter daylight in Holly Green ends around 3:55pm, so we may set up under lights.
- We start with the location, call times and numbers.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We agree where we set up and when we arrive.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
How to prepare
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
How to get a price
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the shoot is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Send us your details through our quote form.
