How it works
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Late-September shoots near Mundy Bois lose the light at about 7:00pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We clear our spot.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about tight access
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
