Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.

- We check access to base and quote.
- We agree where we set up and when we arrive.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- We pack away straight after service.

Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A level spot at base for the roaster
- Away from vehicles and equipment
- The location manager’s agreement
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
