How the day works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we have agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. In December, daylight in Jevington ends around 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:15pm.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- You get a check on access and a quote.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after service.
Preparing for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

How we price a hog roast for the crew
Each price is built from:
- Access to the cooking area
- Whether you want china
- The journey to the venue
- How long the roast and service take
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
