The process
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. In December, daylight in Hurst Green ends around 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- The roast starts early.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Think about shelter for your crew
